    As an experiment I left the forum on the 20th of March to see if anyone missed me. They did not. This huge blow to my ego

    led to the following resolution. I shall post with indifference until I reach 10,000 posts, then I shall leave permanently. My sole restriction is that each post should seem to me to fit into one of the following categories:
    1. Witty
    2. Scathing
    3. Informative

    All 3 in the one post should be the goal.

    Actually, I was wondering where you went. So, you were missed.

    I noticed you were gone though. But we never really talk, so..

    By the way, why is it so important to you that you are missed by a bunch of screen names that don't even really know you ?

    Don't be an ass Ophi. Of course we missed you. But you did say you were miffed and would be back after a year. You didn't exactly give us a choice there

    What did you want? A WHERE DID OPHIOLITE GO? thread?

    I'll start ranting if you leave again

    most likely not, but that can be said for anyone. it's like watching t.v, you miss the people but with certain limitations.

    I was under the impression you only made such posts anyway. I don't recall you ever trolling or gossiping.

    I think you should choose randomly among the three each time you post, regardless of the situation.

    And just to make it interesting, if you happen to choose ``informative'', you should cut and past large chunks of random wikipedia articles, using this:

    You must have missed the huge multi-millioin dollar campaign to get you back here. Seems that it worked. Money well spent.

    My randomly generated word was "THEFT", and so after a quick wiki-ing I thought this large chunk would suffice as my three witty:
    (alright, perhaps not witty in isolation it may very well be the hilarious punchline to a very witty joke). [see req. 1] Scatching:
    Which is scathing by definition. [wow, I think that was all three covered. And now for the large chunk of information:
    And here I was hoping for a street party to welcome me back

    An experiment in how a subject in question craves acceptance from his or her peers study should have been the title of this thread.

    And this post is both self-referential and qualifies under number 3. Perhaps the self-referential nature of it qualifies it under number one.

    If you, by some chance think it is scathing, you need to get more worked up. But this is not necessary for qualification.

    The verification committee will be tracking you, it should be noted.

    Ophi-Why wait?

    Just kidding. Whenever you rake me across the coals I love your scathing wit. Perhaps we should engage more often.

    Here's a question for you, for fun. If inside a singularity physics breaks down and photons serve no true purpose, then why do we call it a "black hole"? Black being an absence of color, shouldn't it then be a "white hole", being full of color?

    I know you love questions like this.
