No, please don't do that... it may be the only artifact remaining from a glorious, fattening age.

I don't see how retiring the can have an impact on the supply of real chocolate to the world.HansV wrote:Oh dear - we'll retire the smiley if necessary.
I mean if the smiley was the equivalent of real life then every time I use there ought to be a careful, caring, loving companion a-knocking on my door ...

If you can cut the chocciebar into half...four blocks are just as good...
Chris, when you interact in the lounge, you have to put your 3D goggles on. Did the Admins not supply you with a pair when you joined??? It makes the interaction with loungers more realistic, it makes the use of the smileys come to life (I have had lengthy conversations with Nurse Betty), and that is also why most of us have .GIF avatars to make our presence more dynamic and interactive. You should get your pair else you are really missing out.ChrisGreaves wrote:I don't see how retiring the can have an impact on the supply of real chocolate to the world.

No, we never guessed that reason - how could we ever?

Apparently, the shortage is contrived. See the penultimate paragraph in this screenshot.

There are three dimensions? All the books I read appear to have two-dimensional pages. If it was gut enough for Goodenburgh, it's good enough for me ...Rudi wrote:... you have to put your 3D goggles on. Did the Admins not supply you with a pair when you joined???
