Samuel Johnson

Who's watching Samuel Johnson? Looking at this, almost everyone is gone. Is Parrot of Doom still on board? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:39, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

No, he ran out of patience with this lunatic asylum a long time ago, which is probably what we'd all do if we were sensible. It's inevitable that Johnson will turn into WP's usual gray goo I'm afraid, nothing can be done to stop that. Eric Corbett 22:41, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

I'm not completely dead, I still look in occasionally and I recently wrote Weltron. But you're right, I did get sick and tired of it all. Parrot of Doom 19:06, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

I shudder to think of what state The Dark Side of the Moon is in now that Mr of Doom is no longer caretaking it. It's probably the WP equivalent of a stately home whose owner has abandoned it and just let random travellers camp out in the drawing room, leaving stale pizza boxes everywhere.
