    i've been thinking, for no particular reason, that we should have some way of referring to ourselves, sorabjiites?, but with a word that does not lead easily back to this place.

    if that makes any sense.

By Jackbot on Sunday, February 24, 2008 - 07:57 pm:

    Wow! jack have gone mad!


By sarah on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 11:34 am:


    ooo that's a tough one.


    the only thing i can think of is


    the candy exchange


    but that really would be a nick name for the boards, not the people who post here.








By platypus on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 12:22 pm:

    The exchangers?


By Spider on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 12:41 pm:

    What are we, a band?


By Spider on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 12:42 pm:

    Also, I have never exchanged candy with anyone. I feel so left out. :~(


By Spider on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 12:43 pm:

    No, wait! I did exchange candy with Moonit years ago!

    She sent me vegemite, too. :)



By Nate on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 01:33 pm:

    i think of the candy exchange as a fairly recent subcultural movement.

    jack have gone mad.


By sarah on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 01:46 pm:


    right, but "candy" is a word with many meaning.





By sarah on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 01:46 pm:

    s



By heather on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 02:05 pm:

    did people receive theirs btw?


By platypus on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 02:25 pm:

    I've been haunting the post office, but no sign yet. And Antigone has been mysteriously absent. I suspect that he has escaped to the tropics with his loot.


By Nate on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 04:23 pm:

    damnit. candy exchange is a fucking virus.


By platypus on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 05:04 pm:

    virii?


By droopy on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 05:51 pm:

    cockroaches

    i've been skulking around these boards, disguised or semi-disguised for at least 10 years. i've seen a lot of people come and go. now it just seems like a ghost town, usually. the only things left are us roaches. and candy.


By Dougie on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 07:07 pm:

    Los Ijbaros


By Nate on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 07:57 pm:

    that's awesome, dougie. perfect.


By jack have gone mad on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 09:30 pm:

    dude. come on. that is nowhere near as cool as iqbal's little helpers or slinky underthings.


    even cult of trace (members: "tracys") or tequiza enthusiasts are better than a backwards name. dude.


By Spider on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 10:30 pm:

    Labels are sooo 1993.


By Nate on Monday, February 25, 2008 - 11:45 pm:

    don't think this is just about vanity.


By Spider on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 01:00 am:

    That seems ominously laden with implications...


By Spider on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 01:06 am:

    Where is Patrick, anyway? I miss him.


By platypus on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 11:57 am:

    Los Ijbaros actually would lead pretty easily back to this place, because it's a unique search term. Just sayin'


By Nate on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 01:03 pm:

    only if you keep writing it.


By Nate on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 01:06 pm:

    then again, a little switch-o-change-o could make los jíbaros.


By platypus on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 01:56 pm:

    I like it.


By agatha on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 02:07 pm:

    Name? We don't need no steenkin name! I miss Patrick too, and also I miss CANDY.


By sarah on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 03:03 pm:


    the name. it's for a book? a story?




By Nate on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 - 03:12 pm:

    who knows. biographical information, historical reference, something.


By Antigone on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 09:00 am:

    no longer poor

By sarah on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 10:52 am:


    poor? whhhaaaa?


    how's baby?




By platypus on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 11:24 am:

    Poor? I hear babies eat money.


By agatha on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 11:27 am:

    Did we not send you enough money, tiggy? Shame on us.


By Dougie on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 12:37 pm:

    I like Jack's "dodis" best.


By semillama on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 12:45 pm:

    If there is ever a Sorabji cookbook, the pseudonym for the author should be Chef Chert Funk - an anagram for one of our favorite sayings.


By sarah on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 03:57 pm:


    love it.


    what about an anagram for eat hot fuck?




By Nate on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 04:43 pm:

    uncasts.


By platypus on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 05:22 pm:

    Choke a tuft.

By Dr Pepper on Wednesday, February 27, 2008 - 10:12 pm:

    Hi Antigone! Glad to hear from you again! So how is Dallas?


By Antigone on Thursday, February 28, 2008 - 12:13 am:

    Company I was working for decided to cease to exist. I waited for two months to see if they'd recover, but no such luck. I got another job two weeks ago and just got the first paycheck.


By agatha on Thursday, February 28, 2008 - 12:18 am:

    Oh, Tiggy! Why didn't you lean on our collective shoulders? We're here for you!


By platypus on Thursday, February 28, 2008 - 12:21 am:

    That is weak, Antigone. Next time, harness the power of the Jailbird Nosh Force! We wouldn't leave you in the lurch.


By Antigone on Thursday, February 28, 2008 - 12:35 am:

    I'm also a highly distractable lazy ass. :) I promise to get it all out this weekend. I have lots of time, as I'll be looking after the baby while my wife's on a field trip for her geology class.


By Dr Pepper on Thursday, February 28, 2008 - 02:16 am:

    Sorry about the job, glad your doing ok with your new job. our has to be real careful.....


By agatha on Thursday, February 28, 2008 - 12:11 pm:

    What's your new job, tig? Are you liking it?


By J on Saturday, May 24, 2008 - 03:46 am:

    This might mean no Agatha,do you think?
