Got it. The official code for "that is a filter up your butt" is "woh-pah".
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

If I use this as my tag line, is that demon like behavior?

Maybe it's these new tinted glasses, but I think in most cases (not counting stuff like filtering people just to manage to keep up with the board) it's going to be obvious which individuals and which situations are about to/recently did result in filtering.
And as a Usenet user, despite no one having maligned it, I do still wanna say that A) most newsgroups aren't as tightly knit a community as this board is/can be, and B) given the threaded, ask-respond nature of Usenet, it can be considered more of a courtesy to announce a filtering, so that no one is left wondering if something is just wrong with their news server.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Due to coversation in Natter: Possibly the FAQ could stand to be updated with AIFG specifically. Or at least, the little link at the top of the page should be "AIFG" instead of "I'm (x)ing right now!"

Hey. New board.
As the cause of the discussion, gotta agree. 'Specially since I actually did check the FAQ before posting. Even word-searched for AIFG. And tried googling.

I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

Is that really Willow? seems so Anya.
I freely admit to be a one time watcher only and so my memory is suspect.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

It's Willow. She's mocking Anya at the time.

So entirely Anya that it hurts.
In a good way.
