I know! Hence my earlier allusion.

How 42 can be the answer to Amy's life, universe and everything is quite...beyond me.

Before this gets out of hand, my "39" was an attempt at humour coupled with believability. It was a kind of joke.

Jesus, it's, uh, incredibly easy to find out someone's age on the internetz, isn't it? :o

And just like those guys who found the answer to life, the universe and everything...I can hardly believe it, in fact. :o

I think someone should tweet a link to PZ's article to Amy (don't have a Twitter account meself). Just for shits and giggles, you understand.

Oh Jesus! You've got to see PeeZee's latest post for the sheer amount of GALL that comes with the very first sentence: http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2012/08/21/uncomfortable-by-my-presence/ Do not wear humorous t-shirts on a plane...

Thank you Tigzy , you are very kind, but you needn't worry - I'm just a 'lil' dormouse :) *studies the post intently, half-convinced there a cutting barb in there somewhere* BTW - you said that Surly Amy was older than yourself; and I think it was MKG who said earlier that she's 39. Can you verify ...

Oh Blimey - Corylus! Wow - nice to see you here. Count me as a fanboi in the subtle and cutting way you undermined the baboons on the Prune's blog - like a razor wrapped in cream silk. In fact, I find you a little intimidating. I think I may end up studying any reply you make to me with a gormless R...

Linky to Jen's food post. Foie gras was also consumed. Honestly, it's too easy ... like falling off a log.

Amen, as they say. Perhaps someone can screenshot his comment and add it to the database? Nabbed it.

Yeah, I remember Lion IRC from the RD forum - though I can't recall if he migrated over to Ratskep in the wake of the RD collapse. Strange guy. Liked god a lot. Still does, by the looks of things.

BTW, which of the baboons like to say "bitches ain't shit" again? Baboon commentator Illuminata is very fond of the phrase. In fact, along with calling anyone who disagrees with her a coward, she seems to pretty much post the same thing over and over when she's in full-on off-her-rocker mode. I swe...

OOOH YAY! Ive been pushing for 'Atheism + Health' for years and years and years, and now FINALLY we are going to do it! At conferences, there will be no alcohol, and no smoking (or any t-shirts, jokes, etc that promote such activities). One hour of exercise every day (mandatory). Lights out at 10, ...

Nah...I'm thinking it's some weird trolling attempt. This person cannot be serious. Thats one hell of a prepared troll. I knew this alphabetised list would come in handy one day!

I noticed there was yet another dig at Michael Shermer from Spokesgay. Promoting the FfTB narrative that blacklisted Shermer is a sex-crazed, perverted, misogynist bully. And yet, Queen Bee's rampaging at conferences never gets a mention. Shermer's mooted ability with women is probably what promote...

And yet they're 'winning' so much, that they decide to form their own atheist/skeptical splinter group. So why would they ...
