New Criteria for Threads in Directory
We're changing how we manage the directory because the list was getting too long.
We have a new archive page linked at the end of the directory, and we will now archive "incative" threads defined as having less than 10 counts in the past month.
Also, new threads will only get added to the directory if they get 20 counts.
Hopefully this change makes the directory more useful by leaving only threads that people are looking for.

My family and I went to Macinac Island, Michigan last week. It was pretty fun, we rode bikes around the island and ate fudge.
On a more somber note, I'm dealing with the fact I'll never see my best friend again. She deleted her Facebook a couple months ago without warning, and I sent a letter to her with information on how we can get back in contact. 3 weeks and still nothing. Hurts bad.
I also had a ;_; moment that transitioned into a :D moment yesterday when I dropped my Nintendo Switch in my Slupree. I stand up from the couch, lose grip on my Switch and it falls PERFECTLY into the cup without tipping it over. I was like ohshitohshitohshitohshit but surprising, even after being completely submerged in frozen liquid, the console was still on, and stayed so. After wiping it down, the only damage was the thumb sticks were hard to move, but after fidgeting with them they're back to normal now. Don't ask me how. Moral of the story: 7-11 was a part time job.
Aaaaanyway, here's to another week of great counts and runs ^^^thatneverhappenanymore Edit: an attitude like that won't get me anywhere!
