Is the flag image at the start of the OP showing for everyone else? I tried uploading it to another hosting site but still nothing.

And I have no idea why some of the links in the Previous Threads list are displaying so weirdly either.

Brucas4life · 02-28-2011, 03:20 PM

I don't see it for some reason either.

Thanks for the new thread Cat

I LOVE the title!

No worries.

And thanks, I thought the play on the HBC abbreviation was quite amusing.

I thought that there was something missing

Haven't seen any other of the performances so can't really comment - I just remember Melissa Leo from an episode of Veronica Mars.

Was she really? I'll have to check that out

Oh why has bitch been censored? Leeann has it in her username and it's allowed there.

I changed it anyway.

New Gaga music vid. Wonderful H/C scene in tonight's ep. Epic promo for next week that includes Lisa singing. My mind is genuinely racing and I feel like my head might burst, today has been too much.

**LLamacorn In Training** · 02-28-2011, 10:07 PM

Are you talking about the "Born this way" one?

And as for censored ... Because of the whole thing with the Aussie thread someone said that s h i t would get me in trouble, but, stay toon and I'll let you know.

tender looks · 03-01-2011, 06:43 AM

Yes, I'm talking about the BTW vid. Have you seen it?

And no worries on the title, I was just curious.

**Violent Delights** · 03-01-2011, 12:16 PM

It does seem silly to change it

tender looks · 03-01-2011, 05:17 PM

Quiet day.

I have an excuse, I've been getting bombarded with House related epicness and can barely breathe nevermind anything else.

Haven't seen it yet, I will be looking it up shortly.

As for the title, I know it sounds silly, but

So that's all really

As long as it's not in the initial title then I believe you're good to go!

I knew about the PG13 thing but I didn't know there was a difference between thread titles and regular posts, so thanks for clarifying that.

Well being busy and having 3 boards to mod isn't the best combo.

**LLamacorn In Training** · 03-02-2011, 07:51 PM

I agree three boards, and busy is quite a lot!

So hows the weather there today?

tender looks · 03-03-2011, 05:48 AM

It's dull and chilly but otherwise fine here, as long as it's not raining I don't complain.
