Yes, I do have one.

So do I, on occasion.

Where do you put it? ... and I dare ask, when in use, and when in storage...

I can't help but think of this...

I'm at work, so I'd rather not play it just now, but I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that someone finally referenced the song "Detachable Penis"? I was going to bring that up, myself.

What generation might that be?

The song came out in 1991ish, when I was merely a toddler, but I have heard it on the radio a handful of times within the last decade or so.

LURVE that song!!

Of course, you, of all people, would like it.

In 1991 ish, I had two toddlers of my own plus a 13 year old daughter --I hope no one in our home was listening to detachable penis songs.

Just did an analysis of the average fluid level of the right-most 80 pixel columns since NP 191.
There is some inaccuracy due to the floating point math i used, but it's close enough to visualize what's going on.

(Spoiler: level up to newpix 647 is displayed)

Spoiler:

Edit: the h-scale is exaggerated by a factor of 10.

Newpix 336

Unless I miscounted, this should actually be Newpix 335.

That's quite impressive, what'd you use to do that?

I think she's doing some Mount Rushmore type thing in the middle there.

There is a head on top of the center thing. This is clearly 1/4 of Mount Rushmore, therefore I claim victory.

Well, either the tide is not rising on a sinusoidal curve, it's not a tide (maybe a flood), or it is a tide and we can use the heights to make a clock.

[SBN]

Right, but it currently shows as frame 336 in The Book of Aubron. There is a blank frame 290. (When the people mourned for the wait between newpix did not decrease with the ending of the Outsider weekend.)

Alas, as are all things in the world of outsiders, the Book of Aubron be an imperfect reflection of the flow of time, although it be closer than most.

I'd like to trebuchet YOUR sand castle!

Wow. ic have been away for something like 100 fortnight, and there be 80 new pages to this needle-pulled thing. ic woll never be able to read it all.FULL STOPFULL STOP tin someone enlighten me on the current topics of discussion?

Buffygirl (an cardinal) may-did be possessed, or may-did just be hat/voting-crazed.

FTFY, heretic.

Sorry, ic just consider myself an Initiate of Thing that keeps slipping into the future.

Initiates of Time are fine, and the TimeWaiters are fine, but the TimeWatchers are nothing more than small-minded heretics. Do not forget the distinction.

All this trouble over trying to combine Wait with -er (suffix for designating people around an object/action). What if we used an alternative suffix? Like, a Time Waiteer. Like a pioneer, but for waiting. Also, it sounds like you are saying 'wait here', which is kinda funny.
(Waitier just sounds like something is heavier, and Waityer is enh.)

Well I'd like to rebuild a large mound in its place, about which many forum visitors will suggest incorrect theories as to its purpose, until someone else takes over the building and then I depart to the left of the set.
I'm not doing too well at this 'snappy comeback' lark, am I?

Or the time within the One True Comic is passing at different rates between NewPices, which might necessitate some form of Theory of Relativity.

Oh, sure. We're how many periods in and Now you show up with the voice of reason? A week ago we'd have made you at least a Cardinal for that.
