"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is guac really going in the FAQ?

Yes, that is the consensus.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

How about putting a link to the site etiquette in the slug at the top of the main page, (along with the FAQ link) - although the FAQ is fun and should be read, I sort of think the etiquette thing should be the very first thing a newbie reads about the site.

I think this is an incredibly good idea.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

There ought to be a Buffista Dictionary. Things like "Nilly," "Meara," "____ likes carrots," "HSQ," etc.

Not in the FAQ or etiquette section; just a general idea. Because we actually have a fairly dense, layered idiolect.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Jon, I can't remember: can we do bold in slugs? I know we can link.

If we can do bold in slugs, should we perhaps bold the [NAFDA] part of things?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

There ought to be a Buffista Dictionary.

It's a whole section of the FAQ.

I just did it for Bitches. Does that look better?

Oh, I know -- I was just thinking that there are a lot more Buffista-specific words that aren't in the FAQ.

It's not a request, or anything; just an idea.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I was just thinking that there are a lot more Buffista-specific words that aren't in the FAQ.

I think that's the sound of someone volunteering...

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

The board looks so angry in bold. Can we make them bold and pink?
