So... do you like MMMMM Bananas?

Let me just reach into my... BANANA bag...

[Silverleaf]

That reminds me, I really must play Win, Lose or Banana again.

*waiting for any indication that anyone got the joke*

[Silverleaf]

*obviously did not get the joke*

[Arathorn]

I'm afraid I don't get it....

[McBehrer]

darn. Oh, well. It's not that big of a deal.

[Envisioner]

I pretty much use basic shorthand - Misty for Nightmist, Expat for Expatriette, Argent for the Adept, Visi for Visionary (firmly referring to the old Web hosting service…I wonder if that's still around), Legs for Legacy (I imagine Wraith calling him this a lot for multiple reasons), Zero for Absolute Zero, Omnix (not Omni-Ecks, but Om-nicks) for Omnitron-X, Tachy for Tachyon (I kind of want to call her Tacky instead, in honor of Unity, but Tachy is just easier to type), and I get altogether too much pleasure out of referring to Fanatic as Fanny.

@Silverleaf

"F*@%ing asshole Mable" or words to that effect are fairly frequent too.

<Edited for language - Rabit>

Rabit's standards for language amuse me greatly.  And alas, I'll have to steal the Wasteland/Countdown bit…

Not my standards - the sites':

6. Keep cursing to a minimum. Ideally, we'd like to keep the board at a PG level. We won't necessarily be monitoring strictly for vulgarity, but note that if you choose to use it, we may alter or remove your post.

That'd be me not reading the forum rules (I have now). Next time I'll choose some obscure British swearword and that'll totally slip past the radar.

[Envisioner]

To be clear, what amused me wasn't the fact that you censored at all (I get that this is a thing moderators do - I still think they shouldn't, but I also think all sorts of things shouldn't be as they are, and am persistently shouted down by everyone from Common Sense up to the Laws of Physics).  Rather, it was that you censored the F-word but left "asshole" intact.

no exhorbatant amounts of punctuation or typing in all caps make me sad how will i ever be able to express my feelings to the world  at least there isnt a rule about not using any punctuation or capital letters at all  that would ruin everything

Just kidding, that was actually hard to type, had to keep deleting spaces and periods.

I have now joined the ranks of those who are not ignorant of the forum laws.

 

[Ronway]

I'm starting to wonder if I am the only person who read the rules right after signing up...

[Nielzabub]

I did.

One question I have.  What is a cange?

Also, I'm assuming he is following cable S&P rules, where some words aren't quite vulgar enough to deem censorship necessary.

And, the quote button formatting of previous messages is very horrible.  Something should be fixed with that.

[Ameena]

Well, if you're English, it's probably just a place to put a donkey or something, seeing how we spell it "arse" ;).

[Drakossozh]

JayMann, its I can get them :)

[Rabit]

And this is why we use spaces…

@Rabit

Woo Hoo, I got in trouble!  Well kind of.  That wink looks pretty menacing though.  I might be oppressed now, have to go think about it.

[Pydro]

@phantaskippy

have to go think about it.

I would use spaces in your thinking.
