Someone should check on Lowtax to see if he's okay

I already messaged him about it before I saw this. I think he's on his mid-afternoon nap right now. Anyway, I'm sure the forums are just "indexing" the punch cards right now.

This thread was from the last time forums slow some intrepid soul decided to bump instead of you traditionally creating a new thread this is out of my control.

To be fair I DID mention your name in order to keep some semblance of etiquette as the forums were very slow back then and you hadn't posted a forums slow thread within an hour and it felt extremely wrong.

I'd like to lodge a complaint to management about the 30 minutes a year or so that it takes me a good 18 seconds longer to spew my hot filth in this destitute place.
Over the 16 years I've been here that really adds up and I've got a lot better to do with my life than sit here at home unemployed at 1:49pm on a Tuesday and wait for his drat search Windex to clean his server case OR WHATEVER HE CLAIMS NOW

It's Wednesday. You've lost a whole day waiting for the pages to refresh

Burt inexplicably finds himself slowing to 30mph on the roaring fast highway as cars whip past him honking their horns.

Sometimes you have to take the forums cart out, blow on it then slam it back in, sometimes it helps.

Othertimes you gotta do it twice or it just won't work ya know.
