Yeah, I got surprised by a locked thread too.
A go around would be to start a new one, same title (CONT), link to the locked thread and I think you can still copy and paste a post if you wanted to respond directly to something.
Putting it here works too 
You guys can blame me for the closed thread. When Milo made his triumphant return on Christmas morning, there was some concern within the more paranoid among us that his account may have been compromised. The thread was closed out of an abundance of caution and by the time Milo reposted in the Sewer, the concern was mostly alleviated. (Link Below) Apologies to Milo and those who didn't find the repost.

This poses several questions.
What's with the 'goose' fascination?
Why 'a dog on a chair smoking a cigar', when all the others were geese?
However, more importantly, a goose android terminator please.

sometimes humans find patterns in unrelated data when it's posted all together like this when it's probable it is just a coincidence.

The Internet vs the Pen vs My Device
So I can copy and paste from AI but I prefer to not assume that's accurate.
When I go to any site and try to copy and paste a poem or definition into a post here it doesn't work. Is there a trick I'm missing or is it my old device or is it impossible?

Whenever I have tried to copy and paste recently it pastes it as extremely small text. Then I have to highlight it and then change the size of the text with the tools above the box. Don't know why this is happening but it may also be the case when you are trying to paste.

Use font size to make bigger; or paste as plain text, in which case you'll have to reformat your italic and bold or whatever.
Sometimes, if you paste quotes or sections from other parts of the screen, the size and font will get out of synch. To which you have to square by trial and error.

Yah - there is definitely a configuration broken that defaults the font size on paste to 1. After you paste, you will see what looks like a black line, select the whole line and adjust the font size to 3 or 4. The tool tip for font size adjustment is a capital A with a 2 sided up/down arrow next to it

Nope, I think may have to do with the sites not being actual text. Here's on of the dictionary sites.

andante
2 of 2
noun
: a musical composition or movement in andante tempo

derately slow
—usually used as a direction in music
andante
