This isn't quite in UP's purview--being that it's a serious kind of fun rather than a zany, crazy kind of fun--but I tried to do this on WP itself and got told to try here, and I figure it can't hurt. Do you think UP might host a Lexicon? I think it'd be pretty fun, in a smart, literate, ever-so-slightly geeky kind of way.--Skaramuche 01:00, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- No. I'm too busy writing a nexuswar Lexicon. --Lt. High Gen. Grue The Few The Proud, The Marines 01:02, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- Funny thing about that. The nexuswar wiki has a lexicon because the urbandead wiki had one. I was the one who put it there. They call me 'STER over there.--Skaramuche 01:03, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- no, not one of those. I'm writing one here for no reason. --Lt. High Gen. Grue The Few The Proud, The Marines 01:04, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- It'd be great if you could give me some idea what you just said.--Skaramuche 01:09, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- Just check my latest contribs. --Lt. High Gen. Grue The Few The Proud, The Marines 01:37, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- You're right (and you guessed better than the so-called experts at Wikipedia), it's not quite our thing. We get lots of people writing things that are fictional but not funny, and they have to get deleted, unfortunately. Anyone know whether Illogicopedia does this kind of thing? I'm about as much of an expert on them as Wikipedia is on us, to be honest. -- Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 01:40, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- Not Illogicopedia, they're completely bonkers. I'm sure this one wouldn't mind, though. --The Acceptable

- Sounds like a Department of Fun type thing. Having said that, I don't really understand what it is, the wiki page isn't very clear to me. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 08:53, 26 Sep 2007
Try adding it to conservapedia. -- incompetent Ape (mature) (Riot Porn) 20:30, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- They've already got a made up world there. They call it the Earth. It was made in 7 days by a guy with a beard, and it absolutely isn't suffering from global warming like our planet is. I'd wish I lived there, but they're not too fond of my kind. Where "my kind" refers to about seven different things. -- Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 23:56, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Only seven? You haven't been around the Conservapedia block, lady. I'd count at least 20. The most popular eight are "liberals", "contextualists", "realists", "democrats", "satirists", "Jews", "mentally stable", and "people." Also, they aren't too smrt. They banned me for being the sock of an already banned user....before I made any contributions. I call that ritarted.-Sir Ljlego, GUN VFH FIYC WotM SG WHotM PWotM AotM EGAEDM ANotM + (Talk) 02:32, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- It's six days. On the seventh he (curiously, in the early part of the book, not big "H" he) sat, drank, and watched football. Then he had a bunch of turkey and more beer, and fell asleep in of the TV after getting into a fight with his wife, punching his brother, getting hit on the head with a gravyboat, and kicking all of the visiting relatives out of the house. Maybe I'm thinking of Thanksgiving (which is the best holiday ever. Countries that don't have Thanksgiving are totally missing out). Your problem, you see, is that you aren't taking it all literally, except for the parables...and a select few passages that are clearly literal, but obviously can't be taken as such because they raise uncomfortable questions if you do so. And "kinds" are groups of just enough animals to prove that this guy made a boat the size of a football field so that he could save all the important animals of the world from getting wet, because animals can't operate umbrellas. You know camels and llamas; you get them wet and it takes forever to dry them out. Meanwhile, people are coming over and commenting on how your house smells like wet camel, and there are wet-llama silhouettes on the couch...y'know, it does sound a bit crazy, now that I say it out loud...

- Actually, He didn't - that whole thing is based on a typo. It was meant to say "...and on the seventh day, He created the rest..." and go on to list a bunch of locations of alien planets which if we'd found them would have pretty much proved the existence of God as well as given us technology beyond our wildest dreams. But you know, He's not infallible - that bit was a typo as well. -- Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 01:04, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- I don't know if it would be beyond my wildest dreams. I have some pretty wild dreams. Sometimes I even wake up with a hangover. Unsolicited conversation Extravagant beauty PEEING 01:52, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
