Hmmm; that's an interesting result.

Yesterday I dared to suggest that gaffer tape might not be the answer to everything. I got quite a few responses, some agreeing, some disagreeing.

Intriguingly, almost everyone who responded on LiveJournal contradicted me and strongly defended the Way of the Tape, whereas almost everyone who responded on Monochrome was agreeing with me (if not always with great conviction).

I wonder why LJ seems to have a greater affinity for gaffer tape than Monochrome. (I'm trying not to speculate that perhaps LJ itself might be held together with gaffer tape. :-)

OK, well, I didn't reply because* I think *gasp* that Gaffer tape isn't terribly important at all. Not when you compare it to, say, chocolate.

(I think this means I probably agree with you...)

*OK, well, there may have been other factors involved. Like needing to work and so on.

Mmm chocolate.

Gaffer tape is important though, in the same way that coffee is.

Or string.

Now, where did I put my string?

I have string. It's on my desk, about a foot <-- that way.

No, that looks like Owen's desk to me :-)
