h a l f b a k e r yI like this idea, only I think it should be run by the government.

Thank You Jutta
For creating and maintaining the Halfbakery, our beloved carnival of concepts | |
At the risk of "going all Hallmark", I know you put a lot of
work into this site, covering the expense of it's maintenance
without any monetary compensation. I think you've created
the most interesting and compelling social site on the web
and I appreciate this great thing you've made for all
of us to
enjoy.
Happy holidays to you and yours and thank you again for the
Halfbakery.

Indubitably. That goes for the mods as well. |

(Pauses to imagine [jutta] looking kicking at the
dust and saying "Gosh, you guys...". |
|
|
Realizes this imagining is probably quite far off
base. |

Decides instead to name the forthcoming
overhanging extension of the upper SSE library
"The Jutt" in her honour.) |

Maybe a yacht would be a better fit. |

My eyes are blurry. But yes, thanks Jutta, for all
these years. |

Thank you, Jutta. I wandered off for a while - too long - and I'm very glad to find this site still here to return to. |

Throwing my bun into the basket. |
|
|
Yes, thanks. I don't come here very often at the
moment but I think I'll come back eventually. |
|
|
How about a bun [+] AND a song!? |
|
|
To paraphrase the words of Mr Cole Porter (imagine this being sung by the incomparable Miss Sarah Vaughan): |
|
|
The HB's so nice to come home to
The HB's so nice for my mind
While the breeze on high sings a lullaby
The HB makes it easy to unwind |
|
|
Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon burnin' above
The HB's just so nice, it's a paradise
To come home to and love! |
|
|
Ah, a bun and a song. Almost better than a bun
alone. |
|
|
I like the halfbakery very much. |
|
|
Ah! That's why USians have Thanks Giving. Nice.

Bun wrapped in a hug
Goes for all bakers.
Merry Happy Thunking

All together now!
For he's a jolly good fellow!
For he's...
No, wait.
For SHE's a jolly good fel...
Dammit! Is there a female equivalent of "fellow"?
Anyway, thankyou [Jutta] and all those who help run this crazy corner of the 'net. |
|
|
Wait, this is a social site? |
|
|
This was my home on the internet for a long time, through some rough times. Thanks, Jutta. |
|
|
We give a toot for the Jutta fruit: Halfbakery. |

(happy to see blissmiss, po, nineteenthy) |

Psst., [21Q]; "fellow" isn't actually gendered, so you don't need to re-gender it. OED records use of "fellow" referring to a woman from 1611. Its primary sense is something like "partner or companion in a venture". Of course, you can re-gender it if you like - but you don't need to. |

|
Bun, bun, bun! This place has gotten me through my
real life that it can be real life!! Hugs and Thanks to
[jutta] and all halfbakers around the world! xox |
|
|
The Halfbakery is an intellectual and emotional sanctuary
to me, and my sincere thanks go to [jutta] for
existentionating it. |
|
|
I am grateful as well to all here who suffer my presence
with good humor and patience, and also to [bigsleep], who
cannot do so but tries very hard. |
|
|
Thanks to guda, for the forum where the Ideas rarely reify
but are always in the hyperreality of existence displayed
on the refied Idea of symbolic exchange, the Internet. |
|
|
^ what he said, but with real words and possibly a different meaning. |
|
|
Thanks and happy holidays! |
|
|
This site lets me set my Great Ideas free before they
build up a head of crazy. I also don't know where else
I would learn so much about grammar. |
|
|
The Halfbakery has literally saved my life. |
|
|
Well, by literally, I mean metaphorically. And by saved I
mean caused me to idly spend a great deal of. And by life I
mean time when I should have been doing other things. On
second thought, by literally I really did mean literally. |
|
|
All jokes aside, this site and community really do mean a great
deal to me. I once heard the site described as a big virtual
couch, and that's about as apt a description as I can think of.
So thanks to [jutta] for hosting the couch, and thanks to all of
you as well for making it a cozy place to flop down for a bit! |
