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.

Agreement Level = Maximum. |
|
|
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.) |

(Reconsiders pronunciation of "Jutta") |

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}}}
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! |
