Guys - please use the "Post Reply" button instead of "Quote" when you have a running conversation like this.
When the reply to a post immediately follows it there's no reason to quote it as well.

I beg to differ

I will quote when replying to part of a post

Thanks.

I was about to ninja-edit my post to say that I'd already edited the previous sequence but I hope the difference in readability was already clear: no pages cluttered with whole-quote pyramids or a series of repeated images - just a flow of text.

I'm new - does that count me as unpopular? Cause it sure did as the new kid in school.

It sucks that even WP cannot escape the pathetic throes of popularity. Ugh.

Thankies!

I like it here.

Random question....I'm looking into making my own weighted blanket. Has anyone done this? I'd love to buy one but with the size and weight I want it'd be well over 300 bucks.

I believe some have, you're best off doing a site search on the topic, because there have been many on that topic which probably have better suggestions than I do.

I cheated and brought mine online :lol:

Thanks

Sylkat...they're basically blankets with pockets that are filled with plastic beads (the kind that Beanie Babies are stuffed with). It's said that the pressure is soothing to people with Autism. I believe it - it's the same as being comforted by the weight of lots of blankets, minus the heat.

You're welcome, and thanks Unpopularity isn't so bad. After all......

In the high school halls...in the shopping malls...conform or be cast out

And Geddy Lee is pretty darn cool, IMO.

Sometimes it's good to be unpopular (in general) - sometimes I like to be around people but other times I like to be left alone.
