    collieflower – If flagging does any good, it’s hard to notice. Flagging lets GoComics know there’s something we don’t like, but whether they actually pay attention and try to do something is more than we know. And even if they do, the spammers just come up with a new e-mail address and account and spam again, since there’s no way that GoComics could know in advance that they are spammers.

    Think of flagging spammers like the “Close Doors” button in an elevator. Pushing it doesn’t do anything when you’re in a hurry, but it makes you feel better anyway.

    SCAATY_423: Flagging does help. By the time I got on this morning, all spam was gone.

    If Michael’s this excited before getting all that Halloween/trick-or-treating sugar in him, then what’s he going to be like after he starts downing all of it?!? That’s going to be down-right scary!!! Heaven help his parents then!

    The definition of excited is: 1. stirred emotionally; agitated: 2.stimulated to activity It is possible for the word “excited” to be negative. Especially if you’ve ever seen kids that are too excited. If they don’t calm down some they can hurt themselves or others.

    The word doesn’t always mean just “eager” or “happy anticipation.” Most parents wouldn’t have a problem with that kind of excited.

    “High-ho Silver” ??? Oh man, not even in 1980 would a kid have known that one. Lynn reveals her own generation.

    Mike isn’t excited. He’s hyperactive, high-strung and off-the-wall, but he’s not excited.

    I love this display of “role playing” by Michael. Surprised he never went into acting after he became an adult. Guess he decided his imaginative talents were best suited for writing.
