[Dizzy D]

Already did the digests for SoapOperus back in the day and I'm probably not that active on these boards anymore with Classics elsewhere.

Dizzy D will find me resilient:

Or people have finally figured out multiquote.

(Sorry, Paradox, couldn't resist).

Ha! Don't worry about it, I enjoy a good shot, even if I'm the target.

First rule of dishing it out is being able to take it.

Well, the topic of "why did they do this? Why can't we have our own???" dying down was bound to take a bit of the speed off.

And they nipped it! Nipped it in the bud!

Yup...the annoying "Where did all of the ____ go? I don't know any of you!" posts have slowed to a trickle. Now we just have to wait for the stragglers who haven't signed up yet after the first week of the nuCBR.

NuCBR? God that's going to imply that it's going to be bad. Just like Nu52

A Lesson I once again did not learn this weekend - 'You can't drink as much as you used to.'

'Oh, the NuManity!'

[Dizzy D]

Please don't use "nu" instead of "new" for anything. It's only 1 letter less, but a whole bunch of stupid more.

'Oh, the NuManity!'

In this version of CBR, I am played by Samuel L. Jackson, even though traditionally, Cotton is usually represented as a Chinese guy.

Would you prefer if we called it the Post-Crisis CBR?

Maybe ALL-NEW CBR NOW!

Post crisis was the last incarnation of CBR, after the great 2004 reboot. That's when I changed my username from Autumn_Knight to Cotton.

I'm also guessing that in the NuCBR, writers are going to be removed from their articles before the stories are finished and the new writers will be heavily mandated by editorial decisions and take the stuff in all new directions with little concern for consistency.

Clarkie hits the wall:

Well, you CAN. You just pay for it. OH, how you pay!

[Paradox]

Dizzy D thinks W isn't getting enough use:

Please don't use "nu" instead of "new" for anything. It's only 1 letter less, but a whole bunch of stupid more.

Well, in these cases, it's a direct reference to the NuDC (or the DCnU, I forget how it goes 'cause I don't buy comics anymore), so it's acceptable.

Rozen gets history:

Would you prefer if we called it the Post-Crisis CBR?

Oh, no, we're well well past that. And Zero Hour was in '04.
