Lol.

Actually, that lol should be echoing off the walls of the empty tavern.

My code works. Queueing and dequeueing views is awesome! Dear Apple, it's magical!

I figure I only have a few more weeks before they think of adding *chat* to the list.

Q: Why were historically significant questions deleted?

wtf

@Chris ^^^^

Okay, thanks for clarifying

@Chris watch doc who?

cuz if u dont, idk if u get the timelock reference

:-P
