It´s a quote from discourse´s software that scolds in these words for replying too often to the same person in a thread. I got this one so much already and mostly with the same person, too. ---

I’ve never quite understood the whole ‘sitting in a tree’ thing. How many people actually do that? ---

I guess it´s becaue it´s a very small children´s thing. Because they think how that works. And it´s part of their world. I used climb trees a lot as a kid, actually. Some of those might even still be standing in the park near where we used to live. ---

Well yeah, I’ve climbed trees before but not for that purpose. I guess it is just a kiddie thing. And it works with the rhyme. Right, what topic are we in… Oh dear, we drifted from that a while back. Trees. There is a tree in Maniac Mansion. There. ---

You saw that in the telescope? Did you also get the easter egg where the alien from Resque On Fractalus knocks at the telescope when you push it too far in the wrong direction? ![grafik](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thimbleweedpark/original/2X/4/4604b4a073f0993092190bb5152fad264f81dabf.png) ---
