Sewing Site

:devil:Me Too Me Too! I asked that question a long time ago and never could get an answer. I guess that it's a TOP SECRET inside joke that us mere mortals,who are not 'in the loop', will never be privy to.:frown2: Hmmmm...... I bet that our newest 'to be' citizen Lotsie will tell us if he sees this post. Jason

 

It really is not that hard to figure out Jason. Just think about it.

Okay....I'm trying....... 5 little old ladies sitting in a circle at a Quilting Bee....... all talking about Mini's and being holier than thou........ No, thanks, but I really am this dumb.... just a word or two to point me in the correct direction.:cornut: Jason

 

Its a rather mundane story that's been turned into legend.

Sit down kids....grab some cocoa or a beer.

Way back in the early days of M/A, back even before The Great Data Debacle there was a bloke that brought up a hypothetical question about the loss of the learned knowledge gathered over multiple years on a website. This mystical site is old in internet time with 10's of thousands of members over the years proffering their knowledge. Over time this site grew and grew, finally outgrowing itself and the long slippery slope of decline started. The concern is that site will eventually implode bashing all that collective knowledge to the 1's and 0's that combined into billions of octets, each a very small piece of that grand design. Much like a majestic mountain is worn to sand.

This hypothetical site is known as the "sewing site".

And that kids is how we came to the M/A term of "sewing site". Now finish your cocoa, or beer and go forth, spread the story of the sewing site so it will forever remain in the legends and lexicon.

 

THANKS NATHAN!!! Jason 'The Dumb One' finally 'gets it'.:cornut: Jason

 

...and just to prove that M/A's ones and zeros are still properly aligned -- and that doing your homework will take you far -- here is that volume of history (for those whose personal initiative in the search for sewing truth has not yet borne fruit):

Nothing to do with nothing, but I would say that next to Nitro I am probably the most banned person on the sewing site. Under a multitude of identities and one of them even carries a life time ban twice. Some were banned for being disrespectful to myself. I guess self depreciating humor is a big no-no over there.

And since I know they read MA regardless of how inconsequential they think it is:

Yes, I still have a half dozen active identities on there. No, you can not catch me. As a matter of fact I am thinking of starting a Myanmar Islamic Mini Club for just my aliases. We (I) will hold our meetings on Fridays. ut:

 

Bet the reunion will be a blast...

So I say Islam and you say blast? Racist.

 

I'm pretty sure that usage of blast was much like the group of your-self's having a gay old time.

It is Friday night and I am drinking. I will interpret personal attacks on us anyway I see fit. And what do you mean gay? Not that there is anything wrong with it.

 

What Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble were having when Wilma and Betty were out.

Sing it with me...

We'll have a yabba dabba doo time
A dabba doo time
We'll have a gay old time!
