- Welcome to talk.bizarre. I am you air hostess, Margaux Hemmingway.
- (no relation). At this time We'd like to help familiarize you with
- some of the accomodations onboard this newsgroup.
-
- This newsgroup is equipped with clever witticisms, odd yet intriguing
- conversation, startling prose, and crap. There are several flavors of
- crap, but I'm sure you'll come to know them all by heart. Try to get
- by the crap as best you can.
-
- During your initial boarding you will be pelted with pig bladders,
- wielded by some people who are going to claim to be Important People
- on talk.bizarre, whom you must toady to in order to become Popular.
-
- They are, by and large, lying like bad throw rugs. Personally, I'd throw
- a fish at them, but I do not have enough fish to do a really good
- job of it.
-
- As far as the rest goes, you will be judged by what you have to say,
- how you say it, and whether or not you can keep from acting like
- a total git.
-
- Have Fun.
