Heh. As an involuntary "OP", I'll stitch it back to some meaningful reading.

Interestingly, I just came across the word "Schlendrian" in Vol 1 of Thomas Mann's "Josef und Seine Brüder", the context was someone describing an informal noncontractual business arrangement as "Schlendrian", i.e. something akin to "Schlamperei."

Actually, I was attempting a feeble pun on the net slang "Threadjack". So everyone please, calmly take your whips and chain mail shirts and proceed calmly in single-file back to the dungeon. Sorry to get you all excited on false pretenses...
