Notes Normal humans: I'm not online very often these days, and when I am, I don't have much stomach for anything complicated, stressful, depressing, or time consuming. You're still welcome to post here, but it's unlikely I'll be able or willing to help in a timely manner. Admins: I'm not online very often these days, so if you think an admin action I've taken in the past is wrong or no longer useful, go ahead and undo or change it without feeling like you have to talk to me first.

Template you with what? I won't ANI you, but please produce CU evidence that I am a sock. If you can't, I'll recall case you, and I don't appreciate these accusations. MitchG74 17:15, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

		Happy Saturnalia
		Wishing you and yours a Happy Holiday Season, from the horse and bishop person. May the year ahead be productive and troll-free and you not often get distracted by dice-playing. Ealdgyth - Talk 13:54, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why thank you, Ealdgyth, Merry Equinox to you too. From the indef block with talk page access removed person. --Floquenbeam (talk) 20:22, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would have greatly appreciated any sort of explanation for your undo of my edit on the Wikibreak page.

I thought it could be okay in accordance with the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Department_of_Fun , although it was a somber note.

I also acknowledge that it could have been a poor edit. I just need feedback, that's all!

Info on that page should be either useful, or funny. Making some kind of ill-formed joke(?)/comment(?) about Aaron Schwartz's death is neither. I do acknowledge, however, that an undo with an edit summary rather than a rollback was warranted. Sorry about that. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:19, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looking back, it was ill formed. I found it notable and worth remembering that Aaron made an edit the day before his death, and I didn't convey it in a way that made sense at all Neuralnewt (talk) 16:27, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Floquenbeam, please accept these holiday wishes :) I've caused this year to end on a chord of disappointment for many, but I hope that despite my mistakes and the differences in opinion and perspectives, and regardless of what the outcome is or in what capacity I can still contribute in the coming year, we can continue working together directly or indirectly on this encyclopedic project, whose ideals are surely carried by both of our hearts. I'm hoping I have not fallen in your esteem to the level where "no hard feelings" can no longer ring true, because I highly respect you and your dedication to Wikipedia, and I sincerely wish you and your loved ones all the best for 2018. ✉ 03:59, 21 December 2017 (UTC), humbled but optimistic about the upcoming year of renewal and growth![reply ]

Thanks, Ben. "Hopefully things will be better in 2018" can have meaning on quite a few levels, but I hope it's true for you and yours as well. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:50, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
