Life actually kept me busy all day long — I hate it when it does that — and I haven’t made a decision about the LOLCreashun winner yet. Thus: punting until tomorrow. At which time I really will announce the winner, promise. But now I’m going to sleep, because I’ve been up since 5am. Selfish of me, I know. I’m just that way sometimes.
SLEEP? SLEEP?
You get the hell out of bed and announce a winner right the fuck now!
**”What? I’m not even in the top 50?**
Nighty night. Don’t let the bedbugs bite.
notice the posts no longer reveal the exact time
probably calling it quits after only a 19 hour work day, but we’ll never know.

It’s like waiting for Presidential Elections to be over. Oh, sure, you could stay up all night, but you could go to sleep and find out in the morning just which polls are still too close to call.
Liar Liar!
pants on fire!
Hey, he *did* say he would “probably” announce the winner last evening. Let him sleep. More time for wagering!
Well, I, for one, am on strike until the winner goes up. Let’s see how those greedy, bourgeois, capitalist ‘owners’ feel about making Scalzi work until… Dammit. I forgot I’m an independent contractor now. No workee, no payee. Then I’m just taking today off to deal with the nerves of not knowing.

Sadly, I know this to be from In Living Color.
My only regret is that I never got around to making one with a raptor/rapture pun in it.

Last Sunday I noted that manually disabling Daylight Savings in my profile jumped the post/comment times back to something close to reality. No idea whether WordPress is supposed to be figure that out on its own, though I doubt it can without geo/nat data.
On the other hand, comments 4..8 above are all in my future by up to three hours. Server clock fall down, go boom?
(update: looks to be almost exactly three hours off… preview really
is useful.)
You’re all an hour ahead of me you East Coast elitists and your snobby Eastern Standard time zone. Where do you have to be that’s so important to you that you have to be there an hour ahead of me?

The comments clock is what it is, but didn’t Our Lord and Snarkior, John sCalzi’s main posts also list the times and dates way back in the year 1 BWp?
