    It finally imploded and disappeared up its own alimentary canal. It was always thus: the trolls returned to their natural habitat.

    If we were in the soapbox I would make a joke with what I read the first time I put my eyes on your sentence... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: ;P :laugh: :laugh:

      It was a good place to go whenever I needed to feel like I wasn't being coherent, I usually felt better when I could read some real incoherence. :laugh: I do miss the jokes.

      It was broke, so I fixed it.

        I went to have a look around only to find it's completely empty. What's happened to it?

        Microsoft bought it out, in order to produce its next-generation [Microsoft Offensive Chatbot(tm)](https://phys.org/news/2016-03-microsoft-chatbot-offline-offensive-tweets.html) (The first attempt wasn't quite offensive enough)

          So its aliment is in it, and it's in its aliment. Do I have that right?

                Actually it's all part of a cycle, the Soapbox will come back in about 50 years.

                  I must admit I didn't frequent it that often, but when I did it was usually an interesting place to visit.

                    Is this a temporary closure, or a permanent one? Is it ever likely to be restored again?

                      Permanent. I think the hamsters got fed up with the level of trolling going on, and decided that belongs on FarceBook.

                            In Word you can only store 2 bytes. That is why I use Writer.
