Not FML, but this thread is linked on know your meme - http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/fml

:o

Refresh my memory- does the general forum require an account to view?
[/quote]

Nope. All of our secrets are out. Hide the bodies.
[/quote]

Yeah, I'd like to take this time to restate my support for making the General Forum require registration.
[/quote]

I would feel more comfortable knowing that general discussion can't be openly lurked.
[/quote]

We changed this to make the forums more accessible, before it required an account to browse at all...
[/quote]

I think that most of the people new to the site will head right into the tf2 or minecraft board so locking the general shouldn't hurt much. that's what I did at least.

Oh shit, my whining is accidentally famous. (And that counts as a relevant FML)

It's not like they know us.

Imagine a random lurker who's actually curious... only thing he will take from here is that there is a guy named versus who would love to get punded by a touhou.

No, most people here have posted enough stuff that anyone who really put any amount of effort into it could probably nail your personal info down pretty solid.  Especially once they find the facebook group.  

I was wargaming this argument in my head- I mean, I know most people here well enough to not mind a decent amount of exposure.  I trust you not to be take the idea of identity theft seriously, well, I mean, most of you probably aren't felons or sex offenders.  

...And that's when I just gave up on the argument. Here's two bunnies kissing:

About to make an irish car bomb after working 44 hours over the last seven days.

Open my Guinness to find that my fridge has FROZEN it, rendering it undrinkable.

I get where you're coming from but don't you think that if someone was looking to steal your identity/stalk you/rob you they could just create an account and then lurk?  It's not like having to create an account adds a major barrier to finding out all the information available.  Maybe some proportion of the people who could do shit like that would be turned off by creating an account, but can you really rely on that?  In either case if someone really wants to find out about you they will.

You might want to start keeping them in drawers or cabinets.

Hey Mr. Kitchen Organization Subcommittee Chairman, sometimes a pairing knife gets left in the sink.

Ever heard of a cutlery block?

[K2]

I choose to believe that he was talking about the cats.

I thought you were implying the cats were getting it from such a block.

You need to set up a camera, so you can get a shot of a cat with a knife in its mouth. Because that would be amazingly awesome.

Alternately, your fiance is an evil genius and she's manipulating you into THINKING its the cats. I can't decide which one is more awesome.
