Hey BM

“It took a surprising amount of time, but Matt squashed your fantasy thread. (it was a good ride, yes?)
;-)”

“Dang. I'm still honestly confused by what can and can not be posted. I tried to keep it........clean.”

“The Mattinator giveth, and The Mattinator taketh away...”

“The Supreme Godhead has spoken and found you wanting!”

“Bit -are you saying that Matt's reasoning is ineffable?

That, on a Matt-Fearing-Planet, one should not question the Hand of Matt?

And is being squashed some kind of badge I can wear? It's my first.

“I dunno about ineffable, but it is certainly absolute and without appeal!

You may question, certainly, but not unlike arguing with an umpire, it is likely to be fruitless...

If there is a badge, mine would have several oak leaf clusters by now.”

“You'd need a sash to hold all your badges, Bit! :)”

“Truly it is so! But how could one expect less from The Foremost Purveyor of Crap on this forum?”

“I would expect nothing less, my friend!”

“I can't help but to think 'bowel movement' every time I see BM in a thread.”

“I would never question, 'taint my forum. Obviously I need more lessons from The FPOC.

Will you be my mentor?”

“I say run out onto the field and get in Matt's face and scream and yell and kick dirt on his shoes until he kicks you out of the game. Problem solved.”

“I know,,, what happen??? I was in the process of breaking it down for him when I actually had to do some work today.

Look,,
The sexual/sensual massage is kinda a vanishing art. It struggles for survival in this age of instant gratification. People really need to think about it as tuning a instrument and not pull starting the mower. That old adage about patience being a virtue can never ring more true when it comes to giving a good sensual massage.

I think most of the problems that some people have in giving and receiving massages stems from prior experiences and relationships or lack there of.”

“LOL! Thank you, PG!

I actually never thought of it as a "vanishing art" but that makes perfect sense....and I do see a pattern over the years....

You are as wise as your name implies.

“is that with or without the balloon?”

“I thought hiku was the vanishing art. I miss dunadan already. :(”

“bleh...hiaku should jsut give up the ghost and dissapear.”

“The Mattinator spaketh, and he said:

1. Let not ye post messages of too frank a sexual nature, as this is a family board.

2. Let also not ye post a new thread whose name is an obvious take-off on another thread, as this is naught in my sight.

3. Let also not ye post message of a denigrating nature about whole races, classes, or religions, especially those of a litigious nature, as the resources which I have to maintain this board are few.

4. Let also not ye post messages too filled with innuendo of a sexual nature, see Commandment 1.

5. Thou shalt not post fuego topics on non-fuego threads.

6. I have likenedeth Trail Talk to the conversation around a backcountry campfire. Let this be the main thrust of thy postings, with mine other rules in thy thoughts.

7. Thou shalt not post the same message over and over to a thread, lest I banish thee into the Trail Talk-less depths.

8. Remember that Trail Talk is mine message board and mine alone, and if thou doesn't like my rules, thou mayest go and post on backpacker.com and have that wanker over there ban thee.

9. If thou annoyest me too much, thou may find thyself in the same boat as the Tarp Rat, regardless of whether thou findest it fair or not.

10. I reserveth unto mineself any and all other rights and privileges whether mentioned in these rules or not, see Commandment 8.

And the TrailTalkers did howl, and rend their clothing, and complain about non-backpacking threads, and whine about being held to a different standard than other posters, and flame Violin, and feast upon the newbies, dehydrated dinners, and energy bars, and bare their breasts at passing cars filled with their boyfriends' co-workers, and ignore the whole mishmash, and go backpacking and kayaking and fishing and hunting, and beg for attention, and mischieviously post about other posters' inability to spell, and make up new troll identities, and...


skip a bit, brother...

...and The Mattinator looked upon it, and smiled, and said "It is good," with a wry grin on his face.

“lmao :D Ya!!! I made it into the book of matt!”

“ROFLMAO!!!

One question, Mosespusher, how does one know when the Matt has been "angered" too much? Is it by squashed threads only?”

“No, there's thunder and lightning too.”

“BM....some of us would be long kicked off if he got angered easily...one squished thred is nothing :) Ive had plenty...”

“Did you notice your #&%!$ thread on the other side was squashed?”

“it was?”

“LOL! Yup. It was "locked" this Morning and now it's gone.

I hope it had nothing to do with me posting the Monty Python lyrics for "Medical Love Song".

“Hey bm...I started another #&%!$ thread on the other site :D Lets see how long that lasts lol”

“BM what is your email addy”

“Are you gonna tear me another BM hole, mapes?

You had it a while ago, no?”

“no i am going to explaine to you in private why I got mad. geeeez get a clue.
if I still had your addy I would not be asking you for it.”

“Well thanks! You have mail.”

“Why post a "p3n1s" thread to board knowing it's going to get pulled. Seems kinda childish.”

“i don't want matt to pull my p3n1s.”

“Oh, this thread was for the other BM....”
