I must really rank
No, that was just a kind of crappy post to something that had already been deleted once. The only thing it smacks of is crappy post.
And as for how Jessamyn rolls, we don't generally indulge is specualtion of geometrical alignment.

I don't think we've ever really thoroughly considered what a great word 'infodump' is.

Take it to Metatalk if you don't like it.
Both you and Blazecock are, with all the goodwill in the world, members who are fond of making controversial, shooty-from-the-hippy, zingy kind of remarks that stick in other's craws from time to time. (You were called out in a collosal goat-fuck of a racism thread a few months back, IIRC, in which you, in my opinion willfully, didn't respond.
So, tortured syntax aside, you'll excuse me if I hold up a large red leather handbag and sarcastically exclaim "Wooooooooo!... [more]

We should accept the principle of self-policing as an important asset of this site, not something to be stiff-armed.

He came in hard for Blazecock Pileon,
Protected by his righteous spleen,
But now he pulls up short and wonders,
WTF do these haters mean?

Woo! I've been on honeymoon and so missed the email, the blog, the signing, the birthday, the announcement, the MeTa thread, the party and all the other hoopla. Nonetheless: happy birthday!

Huh?
Once, while on holiday in Oslo, i went to a corner shop and bought a carton of orange juice, 4 beers, 20 cigarettes, a half litre of milk and a loaf of bread. It came to nearly 70 UKP. So fuck those guys.

Ooh. Almost forgot this parable by Jessamyn. (Also, searching for this comment reveals that Jessamyn talks about cookies a lot. It seems important for me to flag this.)

fantastical
Could cortex hook up some kind of "Flagged as Fantastic"-to-Tumblr awesomeness so we could all see what was being flagged as that?
I know, I know, No, too much faff, dangerous precedent, context free, horses for courses, sod off Jofus you knob etc.

even though these get fantastic flags fairly often, and I often enjoy reading them.
Can we have a flag that just says "Dude."?

The etymology of HURF DURF
I was recently using the expression with a french friend of mine. It seemed to go down particularly well with him as it sounds like 'egg of eggs' . And that, my friends, is a little poem.

Not to further lower the tone, but i totally read the question as saying 'custom made penis' and nearly blew an o-ring laughing. Incidentally, had i got in early enough, i would have flagged and then lulz'd, in the order named.

Cunninglinguist - if memory serves, coldchef once made a fantastic post of protocols to follow in the event of someone's death (and in preparation of your own,) Maybe he/someone could find it for you. I can't, i'm on my mobile. (CHECK ME OUT!)

If i had to make a list of people i would like a mixtape from, it would feature coldchef and flapjax near the top. So i guess the point i'm trying to make is that, yes, this would be a good thing.

I thought I was one of those users who joined because someone said something and I just had to comment. Then I went back and looked at my first posts and it turns out I only joined to self-link to a shitty gag on a site I edited at the time.
There. I said it. And I feel better.

I could swear it was the dictionary attack on the passwords of old user accounts a friend of someone in #mefi ran that lead to the Captcha implementation, but I could be wrong.
That was something (peripherally) to do with cilitbang, wasn't it? His flatmate being a douchebag or somesuch.
