And Bridget96, was it your parents who had vast numbers of daughters and little imagination? or are you a female version of the character in the music hall song "I'm Henery the Eighth I am" ?

Ow!

My uterus aches just thinking that somebody could have had 96 babies.

Kimberley is a place where diamonds were found in large quantities. So that is why you are a precious jewel.

Excuse me for my ingorance, but what exactly does YART stand for?

but he lives closest to me, bel.... so pbbbbbbbbbbbbbbt

Too bad, B96, 'cause I'm going to sneak out there and kidnap him (providing he's willing to be my partner in crime) right out from under your nose!

And Max, everything you asked was with the best of intentions! As opposed to now, sigh...

OK, due to Max's post and two private messages, I now know what a YART is. I also happen to be a journeyman.

"Yet Another Rehashed Thread."

Nay, thou art mistaken, dear friend. YART in its original form stands for "Yet Another Rehashed Topic".

Rehashing an entire thread would certainly be a much greater feat than rehashing a simple topic.

Spoken like a true ayleur, Jazz; we can't even agree our own acronyms... Brothers and sisters, untie - you have nothing to lose but your minds!

Gah! You forced me to unleash the restraint which I have been trying mightily to keep hold of--

There is no such thing as an ayleu or an ayleur! I am not one of those things! Ayleur is not even a nonce word!!!
NONONONONONONONONO. And whilst I'm at it--orientate in all its forms is a word that should almost never be used!

NONONONONO....

I entirely share your orientation on that one, Pooh

Jazz wrote long ago, with the clear-eyed insightedness of youth:

Yes, a much greater feat. Has this ever been accomplished here? Yet Another Rehashed THREAD? And what would you need to distinguish a YART from a YARThread? How could you show YART to the tenth as an acronym?

Thanks for this, Roseby...

Bon soir regards,
DubDub
