I don't like being "the hive mind." It sounds itchy. I liked "...and ye shall receive" better.

At least it's not "...and be mocked relentlessly."

Me too.

He might as well have said ...
Ask Metafilter
Predictibly similar answers from the liberal Netaratti.

One of the great things about Ask is that there isn't a hive mind. You'll get a bunch of answers, they'll be different, there will not be concensus, but you'll end up closer to the end of your journey than when you started.

In fact, that should be the tagline. That whole sentence.

It sounds like you're not fully linked into the hive mind yet. When you can hear the gentle susurrus of our thoughts you'll embrace the concept.

Although, on preview, I like sasshat's better.

sasshat??? That's a new name.
Do I ask if thou be friend or foe?

Friend, unless you like Hilary Duff better than Lindsay Lohan. Then we're gonna have to duke it out.

I like hives. I like bees. I like bee hives.

Did you know that naked mole rats have hives? Only mammal to do so. Boy, are they ugly.
