That was one instance of it, though it began in the RPG thread. In short, we staged a huge fight between the two editors for April Fools' Day, to the delight of many and the raging wrath of two. I think they've forgiven us now, though. Maybe.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Forgiven you just long enough for you to let your guard down so they can stab you in the face with a chopstick. A sharpened chopstick mind you.

I know this thread has been quiet for a while... but I couldnt think of where else to share my lil story...
I had a geek girl classic moment... I discovered a brand new comic/game store a few days ago, and I decided to pop in when I drove by. My friend Jen was with me. We got out of the car, walked towards the door, which was glass, and as I reached out to open the door I noticed the only people in the store were 5 boys gathered around a tabletop game...
...Then... They all turned and stared at me... panic... I nearly ran my friend over racing back to the car...
BUT I am resolved... I will go back sometime this week... I will face my fear...
I am ok going into the two stores I know... with the gamers I know... but this new crowd set me in a panic
But Janci I will hold you as a role model! ;D

A role model, huh?  Can I just tell you that I literally ran away from several game stores before I managed to go in one?  I've STILL never managed to go into an unknown game store alone.  

See A Geek Girl's Guide to Christmas Shopping, if you haven't already, for more information on said exploits.  

But thanks!  Go to your game store!  Face your fear!  After all, what can it hurt?  (Besides your pride.)

Good for you. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. Permit it to pass over you and through you. And when it has gone past, turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only you will remain.
