Reminder to self...

...Firewall my brain when I'm reading the news feed on the MxO website, since that will eliminate some, if not all, of the insecurity bouts and shouting and eyerolling from certain members of the collective. An announcement in the "Sentinal", the MxO's "newspaper", that someone had been dropping leaflets with odd slogans on them, including "Don't Trust The Frenchman", has upset Ref -- who knows her significant other is shifty at best, and feels like her face is being rubbed in it -- and angered the Merv, so we all had to listen to him grumbling in French all evening. I'm glad I barely understand him... Well, I may not be able to get every word he's saying, but I think I know the gist of it: he's only doing this to survive when the Machines tried to destroy him and his kind, and if that means less than gentle means, so be it. And then there was this hidden link on the same page, to a secret message which some people are claiming came from the Merv's second-in-command; said entity took one look at it and said it certainly wasn't from him: "The grammatics are too flawed for this to be anything *I* wrote. And what's with the inverse equilateral triangles in place of single quotatation marks?!" Said I: "Maybe it's from your evil, illiterate twin?" Said Flood, very curtly, "I do not *have* a twin, let alone an evil and-or illiterate one."

Aside from that, it was a quiet day: work, poking at fanfics... the usual.
