- Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

three more to make even worse puns in response to the 1st three
at least one to make a completely surreal nonsequiter
somebody else to say "huh " in response to the nonsequiter
several thread hijacks which were even more interesting than the original topic
