So you’re saying you’re disingenuous and/or inauthentic? 😉

I know you put a smiley face in but I’ll take the question seriously anyway.

No.

I’m saying that I have responsibilities as a mod there that I don’t have as a member here, and so I moderate (ha) my responses to match my responsibilities there.

But before you were a mod there you weren’t as sarcastic as you are here?

Look if you really care (which I doubt) you can feel free to send reave a PM. Or you can go look up my post history on FE and decide for yourself.

I don’t really care. I’m just talking.

I understand people have different hats that they wear. I was just insinuating that FE must be a rather silly place indeed.

Actually no, quite the opposite. The rules at FE are much more strict (notwithstanding the recent tighter moderation here) for several reasons, and so this place tends to be much more silly. Which is a good thing. I spend my time at FE because of my interest in fanediting, I spend my time here because it’s fun.

Frink’s humor isn’t really farcical or esoteric at all so I don’t know what you’re talking about.

I don’t really care.

I kind of doubt this.

Some of the friendly faces around here haven’t been so friendly lately. Lots of grouchiness. On the other hand, some people have changed over the years from friendly to cynical, sarcastic smart-you-know-whats. So sudden grouchiness and gradual grouchiness are coming to a head. Extra grouchiness all around.

Which one am I?

Eh, I guess you’re neither because I’ve always thought you were grouchy. No change at all 😉

I’m proud to have been consistently confrontational.

And yet they thought you sane enough to make you a mod over at FE apparently.

That’s uncomfortably close to a personal attack.

It is not. Mods are not generally supposed to be known for being confrontational.

Could have fooled me. You still stepped in it because a lot of FE staff and members post here as well. We have enough drama around here as it is without casting aspersions on a sister forum.

Where were you in '77?

Have you seen the Ridiculous fanedits yet?

so I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Okay.

I kind of doubt this.

Okay.

I’m not casting aspersions. Now, come on, you’re taking me way too seriously here. I mean no ill will against Frink. I don’t. And I don’t have anything against FE, especially since I’ve visited their forums all of 3 times ever, and simply to contact a particular editor.

I was not being snide. I was picking on him somewhat.

The reactions of others here tells me they missed the joke.

Yes, but those are two entirely different venues for humor and for that reason the style is different depending on context.

You’ll have to forgive chyron, apparently he can’t understand how I would tailor my humor to the place it’s being used just like he can’t understand how I’d tailor my posts to the forum I’m making them on.

This is not an attack against chyron, but merely an observation based on several recent incidents…this seems to be a common occurrence.

I don’t know how GSWD ended up with more threads than Off Topic.

A book called “Where in the Absolute Fuck is Carmen San Diego”. Think of it
