[COMMUNITY] Yes, yes, this week's FREE thread is a little late, we admit it. As such, it makes sense that the question/ theme of the week is "tardiness and/or belatedness". Come on it and take a load off as we loaf around and discuss the above or pretty much anything else folks want to talk about it.
February 24, 2025 free thread!

... to highlight some great recent posts:
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player / That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, / And then is heard no more. It is a tale / Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, / Signifying nothing.
Hey, it's Mefi Bingo! Be cool, get square!
