plethora I think the volume increases as you get more frustrated, which often means you start looking properly, rather than wandering around the house aimlessly. Apr 14, 2008
yarb You're right about the volume increasing as you get nearer your quarry, asativum. I think it's like sonar, isn't it? Apr 11, 2008
asativum Plethora, have you noticed that raising the volume makes it more likely the thing shows itself?
Its like the way things always show up in the last place you look. Spooky. Apr 11, 2008
plethora When I'm looking for a physical thing, I tend to wander around saying "whereisit, whereisit, whereisit, WHERE IS IT??" Apr 11, 2008
reesetee Yes. Wordie is going to swallow itself. ;-P Apr 9, 2008
chained_bear I think we just enjoy disappearing into ourselves. :) Apr 9, 2008
reesetee I'm betting that Wordie was built over a Hellmouth. It would be just like John to do that. Apr 9, 2008
Prolagus Every potential Wordie list is an existing Wordie list.
pter, this sentence is being added here right now. Apr 9, 2008
pterodactyl *shakes head in wonderment*
Every potential Wordie list... is an existing Wordie list. It's as if this site creates a hole in the barrier between the real and the imaginary, and the two are intermingling in some metaphysical amalgam...
Either that, or Wordie was built over a Hellmouth. :-) Apr 9, 2008
reesetee Oh, that could be another whole list! Apr 8, 2008
trivet What about the sound you make when you're looking for a physical thing?
Aside from the muttered mantra (keys, keys, keys)... Apr 8, 2008
reesetee You mean like these, pterodactyl? ;-)

bilby Jibby-jibby is something our secretary says, could be ideolectical. But it's entertaining :-) Apr 8, 2008
plethora Sure. Go right ahead. I really didn't have much in mind at all when I made this list the other morning at two o'clock. Apr 8, 2008
pterodactyl Ooh! Can we put some placeholder names on this list? Or is that not what you had in mind? Apr 7, 2008
