Aaaaaaand, now itms redlit. I sent a farkback. if they don’t fix it, we’re kinda screwed since the submission engine bloc(s repeat links. :/
April 21, 2012 at 5:10 pm #46313orionidParticipantOkay, this is getting into BS zone. I’ve farkbacked and notified mods and it’s still red seven hours later. No emails, no feedback, nothing. Just red. I understand we’re the bastard children of fark, but I’m getting a little pissed now.
April 21, 2012 at 5:23 pm #46314ElsinoreKeymasterI had wireless issues and coudln’t get into my email this morning. I’d gotten a message from an admin about the thread, but he was heading out the door. I have sent an email letting them know it is legit and could use a green.

Awesome, thanks! (and nothing angry sounding above was directed at you. I figured you were just busy with the girl scouts or whatever.
April 21, 2012 at 7:03 pm #46316ElsinoreKeymasterhehe no worries. Last night was actually Stitch n Bitch night, at which we actually just drank coffee and bitched and got no stitching done. Then I slept in a bit, and went to check email and didn’t get anywhere. Hopefully the thread will get greenlit soon. I think some of the admins are otherwise occupied, but I’m sure we’ll get it worked out. Meanwhile, I’ve voted up the link. If everyone with TF could do that, that might help, too.

April 21, 2012 at 7:47 pm #46317orionidParticipantAaaand…. Now we’re green, queued for main! Huzzah!
April 21, 2012 at 8:10 pm #46318ElsinoreKeymasterw00t!
April 21, 2012 at 8:10 pm #46319ElsinoreKeymasterAlso also wik: I really hope we don’t get any celebrities (internet or no) as a suggestion. I’d think that would be really difficult for a lot of people.
April 23, 2012 at 9:36 am #46320YoyoParticipantOk, here’s food for thought. If anyone likes these, you’re more than welcome to post them.
These were Top Ten lists from Letterman. The ‘shovel’ one had me in stitches for weeks, I swear.Rejected Jeopardy Categories
-THINGS CHER HAS HAD DONE TO HER
-ALL ABOUT CHAFING
-EXCITING SHOWS ON AT THE SAME TIME AS “JEOPARDY”
-THINGS THAT SMELL LIKE EGGS

-CANADIAN SEX SECRETS
-THINGS THAT THROB
-DISEASES CAUSED BY GAME SHOWS
-GUYS I, ALEX TREBEK, HAVE BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF
-GAP-TOOTHED FREAKS
(Letterman, 22 Sept. ’95)A much older list of the same was even funnier:
– THINGS THAT OOZE
– DEATHBED PRANKS
– NOISES DAD MAKES

(no date avail.)April 24, 2012 at 1:07 am #46321orionidParticipantOMG. I have a book of David Letterman top tens. Hmmm….
April 24, 2012 at 7:35 pm #46322KestranaParticipantWhen is this link going to hit the main page?
April 25, 2012 at 12:15 am #46323orionidParticipantSame time as the off-kilter thread, apparently. They’ll be side-by-side at 12:01. Not sure why that happened though. I’d have preferred this one posted on Saturday to have a final list by wednesday.
April 25, 2012 at 1:21 pm #46324KestranaParticipantGuess they thought “oh hey it’s farktography that’s thursdays”
April 30, 2012 at 3:41 am #46325sleepingParticipantDamn, I guess we should have put more effort into getting out the vote, huh?
April 30, 2012 at 6:17 am #46326ravnosticParticipantOkay the way I see it, is we have choices to be made. Limiting to at least 2 votes, we get:
5 votes:
Something recursive (add one add’l vote b/c comment in itself was a vote?)
Old things among new things
4 votes:
Shoes
Something obsolete
3 votes:
Fun places to scratch
Sensor bars
People of Late Night Waffle House
Fish out of water
2 votes:
Things you’d expect to find in Florida
Deity
Light
Leafy things
Ice
Feet
Shadows
Hot dog in a hallway
Miniature worlds
Naked body silhouette
Not cats
Paranoia
My long lost shaker of salt
Mr. WizardAnd in the funny category,
3 votes:
People of Walmart, not in WalmartAdd one to:
Florida
Scratch
Hot dog
Paranoia
Mr. WizardThat gives us 23 items to chose from, and just how are we going to go about picking which we do? Creativialtivitally, I can think of fun shots with most of them. I’m a fan of “Things you’d expect to find in Florida” and “Fun Places to Scratch” especially, but “Walmart, not in Walmart” hits me for the win.
