Could someone tell me why 'We Got Funding'? Because I might like it, if I knew where it came from.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
And maybe if the proposed title had been something "the bitch got funding" I might have liked it marginally better -- "We got funding" has always always struck me as far too obscure and not at all memorable or funny. And no, we didn't exactly agree to it on WX -- it was proposed, there was some support for it, and then there was a poll and it lost.
t /equally pissy and always hated the name

How about a different quote from the same line, then?
'Spike's Bitches 2: I knew this would happen'.
Or 'we', it's doesn't matter.

Plus 'got funding' makes me think "got milk?"

Somehow my memory actually thought we were going to use "The Bitches got funding" for the first thread when we got here then we stayed with Snarkness because it was so new.

That's what I thought it was 'til it was explained. I just went back to World Crossing looking for the origins, but got caught up in the old discussion on sending the September 11, 2001 posts to the Smithsonian.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Many, many Bitches have been campaigning for this for a long time. If they want "We got funding," I vote they can have it.
