Ever notice how
9/10 times you actually post something sort-of possibly worthwhile it drops like a stone, but if you post "omg i ate lucky charms for breakfast what did you eat?!?!?!!!11" you get like, 100 replies?

Or is it just me.

Frankly, I had toast, so I guess it's a moot point.

3. What flavour?
I'm partial to corrugated cardboard, but word on the street tells me shredded document is the new shoebox in flavour

Only because we are out of Brown Sugar Cinnamon pop tarts.

And it's not just you. Happens to me, too.

It just came up in casual posting one day a while back, I guess...
I mentioned there should be a viewed column for the same reasons cleofus just did and was told that once upon a time (before I got here, I assume) there was one.
