I also have to ask if this was in anyway partially inspired by Farscape, what with the creating and manipulating dimensional ruptures and all.

I just finished watching The Peacekeeper Wars last night, so it was on my mind.

That and every other science fiction tv show and movie having to do with wormholes, interdimensional travel, etc.

I'm drawing on pretty much everything I've ever seen, heard or read for this story.

My favorite detail in today's strip [goats.com] is the yellow post-it note on the surveillance report. That speaks volumes, that does, about their society.

I ruptured the membranes. Then a baby dimension fell out. Sadly it was dead upon delivery.

Oh, the miracle of life.

I just loved the way they're willing to make things fit the profecy -"there are ways to die chocking on trail mix that are involuntary" :)

snipergirl - my condolences for the still born baby dimension.

It is so sad it makes me like to sexy

Beg pardon?

Beg pardon?

Man, forget verbs! [qwantz.com]

Dang it, my comment abovve was not redundant. It may not have added anything of value to the conversation, but redundant? No way.

If I'm going to get downmodded, I want to be downmodded accurately.

Hmmm. Eddies in the space-time continuum again?

OK, they clearly got those two downmods you just got in this thread backwards!

Why do they keep letting him out of the cage?

I don't see what qualifies as incoherent in the comment above... somebody here doesn't like me I see so I'll do everyone a favor and stop posting for a while.

modding tends to be a bit useless so you're best off just ignoring it. base your posting analysis off of actual feedback rather than illegitimately empowered bitter people armed with a pulldown menu.

Also important to remember that if one has posted in a particular thread, then one can't modeerate any posts within that same thread. So if you get downmodded, it's not anyone with whom you've been carrying on the conversation.

i'd definitely say not to let it put you off posting.

Getting a downmod means you've really been accepted around here. Congratulations! You'll be a knackolyte in no time.

Well, sort of.

Getting a downmod that isn't just 'troll' or 'flamebait' over and over is a sign of acceptance. If you see those two repeatedly, you may want to consider changing your posting style.

Or not, as the case [goats.com] may [goats.com] be [goats.com].

You may be right, I guess it's like a bite from the Alpha whatever around here if it's not a killing bite. Jeez, what an honor... *pbfthswqrt*

Except that a downmod doesn't really help my karma which is the only thing that will get me out of this noob level (not that I care).
