I've got no clue what any of that means, can you dumb it down?

What's 300? What's lil lab? And what on earth is a man of the cloth? Is he wearing an old fashioned potato sack or something?

It's where replies after the DT hits 300 comments we can't load them correctly (I think) and it just shows a loading icon in perpetuity FOREVER (until the next day)

Interesting, I've never seen this before. How long has it been happening?

  • 300 comments
  • β€˜lil as in little and Llab = Llabyrinthine = me (as in a cutesy way I refer to myself in here when I’m in the mood)
  • Man of the cloth = Minister, priest etc.

So in other words, I’m adding a comment to help get to 300. If I’m having a drink later I might add more silly comments. I was walking in the park before and admiring a man all dressed in black and realised he was a minister, priest etc. and was like oops, I might have just perved on a religious man.
