Ooh, nifty... it's full sized now. :)

40. You know what happens when you "assume"
it purports to be an NFL team. One year it got so bad that fans started wearing paper bags over their heads, a la the Unknown Comic, to games at the Superdome.

Too much of it right now with primaries going on. Server can't handle it, so they do things to lessen the server load, like turning off sig lines and avatars and ignore and hide thread functions.
