- This week's biopic is already written. Will it be you? Check it out on next thursday. Or so did UU say to me when I asked the same question (but, ahem, more politely.

way late delivery[edit source]
well, last week's issue still hasn't gone out, dudeman isn't around, and i can't edit dex's talk page. can anyone deliver? 13:59, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
- I've wanted to do this for ages! Where's the link to the issue and the people I need to deliver it to? Orian57 Talk 14:00 30 June 2009
late delivery, but not as late as last week, thank you very much![edit source]
ok, to be fair, i will announce the need for delivery here, which i think all of you brave souls fighting to deliver the signpost have on your watchlist. the issue is here; now, fight to the death!! 16:07, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
- Dibs. Lieutenant THEDUDEMAN Dude ... Totally UOTM KUN GotA F@H 18:31, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
- And we have takeoff. It may take a bit to run through all of it, im on vacation and the internet connection im using is rather shoddy, and i have no idea where exactly its comming from. its only 3 edits/min instead of the usual 10 or 20, but it will be done soon enough. Lieutenant THEDUDEMAN Dude ... Totally UOTM KUN GotA F@H 18:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
on time delivery![edit source]
this week's issue is actually ready on thursday, thanks in large part to ape and dudeman; thanks again, guys! is anyone able to deliver said issue? 19:45, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

HEY GERRY![edit source]
Is there any way we can get this in the Post this week? I, personally find it quite funny, but my sense of humor is a bit odd. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 17:06, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
- hmm...a story about the return of some sort of primate whose quantum mechanical properties cause it to exist only during certain conditions causing widespread hallucinations, and the proper way to address said primate? yea, could be a story in there. 17:27, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
- A full story? Cool. As long as more people can see that post, I would be happy. I think it is quite hilariously awkward. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 17:43, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
- I would offer to write it, but I'm really unfunny at the moment. Need to get my groove back. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 17:44, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
- depending upon what other stories are out there, it could be a full article, or an entry in the right-hand flannel. don't worry about your groove; you'll get it back! 17:47, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Job Application[edit source]
Can I apply to become a paperbot? The current ones don't seem to like the job, and I might as well put my amazing whoring skills to good use. Puttano 03:52,17July,2009

So, how about something about how Uncyc is entering a post-colonial era? I'd do it but I can't think how to make it funny right now. -- melodramatic Ape (liberate) (Riot Porn) 21:26, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
HEY![edit source]
My talkpage is missing my July issues of UnSignpost! I paid good imaginary money for my subscription, you theives!!!
... also, the next edition might want to mention that I a) have returned from a hiatus of 3 months, b) am probably going to retire next monday, c) have made a forum topic about it, or d) none all of the above. Maybe. Sir Not A Good Username360 KUN 18:21, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Fucked-Up Vanity Article of the Week[edit source]
Dick The Clown - "Around the time Dick was 3, however, their mom had gained custody of Penis Clown, however, Dick was still stuck with their psychotic, pedophiliac father... On the plane, Dick was about to get both raped and killed by his father, but luckily, Dick jumped out before this could happen... One hilarious joke he told was about how he licked a guys penis so hard, that he ended ripping off the foreskin... Dick the Clown later visited the petting zoo, where he fucked all of the animals, because it was legal in that area... when some young boys came by him, and he took them into and empty shed to take pictures of them naked... went to his long-lost older brother. They then had hot sticky incest..."

- that's really disturbing. 17:37, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yes but the Unsign post does need more peadophillia. We always seem to avaoid the topic where as this tackles it head on in gritty realism. Orian57 Talk 20:32 27 July 2009
- See: Filial Piety, Addition Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 20:37, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
- I think this is funny because of how fucked up it is. Especially the bit about how he licked a guys penis so hard, that he ended ripping off the foreskin. -- melodramatic Ape (liberate) (Riot Porn) 21:18, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
- ape, i really don't want to see this in the unsignpost. some user's really weird, deeply disturbing clown pedophilia vanity hardly seems like it parallels our mission of bringing relevant uncyclopedia events to users in a searingly sarcastic and humorous way. 18:46, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

If you need some idea[edit source]
We could write an article on our continued efforts to take care of User:Gwax/Timeline rebuild. Take up the angle that we're changing time itself. If you ask nicely, I could even...write it... Just let me know. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 20:42, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
- dearest mr. inator, it would give the humble unsignpost editors the greatest of pleasures if you would kindly do that thing you just said. 21:33, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
- Working on it. I'll try and finish it for you today. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 17:32, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
- Alright, It's pretty much done. Let me know if it needs to be fixed/hacked up....Or you could just do it yourself, oh editor. Either way is fine with me. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 18:17, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Hey, mind having a new poll?[edit source]
One that is asking if you are a fan of Freakazoid! (the show, not our barely decent article on him)... That poll would be of great interest to me. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 19:59, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

were fucked in the headmay have been inspired to be funny in part of this show. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 14:43, 30 July 2009 (UTC)- perhaps this might be better accomplished in the forums. 15:22, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Football[edit source]
I was wondering: when Football season starts, could the UnSighpost do a section concerning the FF league? Sort of like an UnSports section, or something, that I would write? Just curious. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 20:45, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yes. -- melodramatic Ape (liberate) (Riot Porn) 20:52, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- if you're referring to an article about the league in general, then i am willing to hop into my time machine and write a story for last week's issue...done! if you're referring to a weekly column, i can't help you with my time machine, because i just used it and it takes 47 hours to recharge. but sure, we could have something like that. 01:07, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
Forum thing[edit source]
Yes, I would like you to put a mention about Forum:FUCKFUCKFUCK in the latest issue. It seems good enough for mention. Thank you!--

- No it wasn't. It was embarrassing for all involved. You seem to be obsessed with creating memes. Here's what you fail to recognise: meme's can't be created artificially, they must arise naturally. If you're trying to make a meme it ipso facto ceases to be funny. In any case, this is not the place for that. Try 4chan or one of those retarded places that make my soul cry when I visit them. If you can't keep your memes to yourself, kindly leave. See also Things you're supposed to be doing instead of visiting Uncyclopedia. -- melodramatic Ape (liberate) (Riot Porn) 20:51, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
- First of all, nobody was embarassed. Second, I'm staying in Uncyclopedia and will continue writing pages. Third, I can't set foot in 4chan. And FOURTH, I was trying to make a meme so uncyclopedia would get extra publicity. Now kindly keep your mouth shut. All I wanted is forum:FUCKFUCKFUCK to be noticed. It's kind of like a game, that topic. And it was started by an IP.--Bad Shroom 20:55, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
- Shroom, you've made a bajillion forums and no articles. Forums don't get Uncyclopedia "publicity"; a really funny article might. Do something productive. - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 20:59, Aug 2
- Well, he did write a few articles. A lot of them got deleted though. 21:01, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
- Also, we don't want the publicity from memes because it will bring a hundred vandals and no good users. Also also, if you managed to get banned from 4chan, don't you think that says something? -- melodramatic Ape (liberate) (Riot Porn) 21:05, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

- Thanks T.L.B., I'll try. And also, Ape that shouldn't exist Today, I wasn't banned from 4chan. I just can't set foot in it after an incident with AT&T. It was on the news.--Bad Shroom 21:44, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

delivery[edit source]

New Draft for the next issue!![edit source]
I have a draft for you concerning new forum topics:
Recently in the forums, BHOP's activity has arguably skyrocketed. An IP has started a new rhyming craze, the cheesy, crunchy snack food CheddarBBQ has revived many topics that were getting rather aged, such as Fantasy Football, a Shakira-esque topic, and even his own birthday's topic. Also, in VFH, users have been scrambling over A wizard did it: A Retrospective's questionable feature status and whether it's cut for featuring. Lastly on BHOP, the fruity user Neox's random storytelling and serious userYouKnowWhatTheMusicMeans' serious, dramatic storytelling have made Forum:Who HATES MochiAds? 2's story a complete, random mess. So from IPs to Doritos to wizards to dramatic Chuck Norris stories, a lot has been going on.
-How is it?--
- it's rather short, but it could be a good start for a BHOP-themed piece. 19:20, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
- Dude, this guy just wants a way to whore his quest to create a meme. Don't indulge him. -- melodramatic Ape (liberate) (Riot Porn) 20:03, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
- i've given up on that. Now be quiet or the politicians will kill you.--

- Oh wait. He's not commited either way... Oh well it was fun while it lasted. Don't put this in the paper now, he's just attention seeking. Orian57 Talk 11:19 6 August 2009

only a little bit late delivery[edit source]
the latest issue is wikia-approved, and ready for delivery! anyone available? 19:34, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

- It wasn't delivered yet? I should try to pay more attention to these things. Also, go Dexter!
- well i think the people involved in this conversation constitute over half of the unsignpost's readership, and since you've all probably read it anyway, delivery isn't an urgent matter (although it is still necessary and appreciated). 21:38, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
- I couldn't deliver to Joe SheA (as usual) or Flutter because of locked talkpages. Also, I may archive some people's pages just because of the load time. Am I allowed to do that? MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 22:11, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
- ummm check with an admin, but i assume that anyone's page that takes forever to load will consist of mostly unsignposts, so you cold do something like copy the most recent unsignposts to User talk:Inactive user/Overstuffed Mailbox. on that note... 22:48, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

re-subscription[edit source]
do you guys think we should ask people if they want to keep receiving the unsignpost? the list of subscibers is getting long, and it's certainly annoying to do by hand, but if we're delivering to mostly permabanned or inactive users then i'm sure they won't miss it. they can always check the archives upon their return. we could but a blurb in this week's issue asking to people to renew at, say, Uncyclopedia:UnSignpost/renewal. i think that should cut the delivery annoyance way down. opinions? 22:48, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
- Works for me. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 22:59, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
- Something to consider is that some people who are not active may have the page watchlisted with it sending them an e-mail when their paged changes. This helps whore us out. Also, if you ask in the paper I doubt everyone who wants it to be continued to be sent will actually reply. It probably does need to be trimmed down a bit though as I'm sure many of those people are long gone... MrN 23:11, Aug 10
- true. i'm thinking anyone who hasn't made an edit in six months or more probably wouldn't miss it too much. but most people signed up over a year ago, so i bet we can de-subscribe a good twenty or so out of the 134(?) we have now, at least. 23:24, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

- Don't agree with the whore via e-mail concept. Firstly because it's so hard to digitise them, and I mean that in the most polite way, but thirdly because when you get e-mail constantly like that which you don't want, you delete it. Or you stop using that account. Or you chalk it up as spam, and uncyc suddenly can't get through spam blockers! I'd suggest if you are going to stop sending it out to everyone on the list, then send out a fond farewell to those that are being removed. Fourthly I'd probably add n unsubscribe to it, so when people want to opt out they can. Not that anyone ever would, of course. I'm just saying. Pup
- Yea, I agree with all that. I think the list could be trimmed down a fair bit. Probably the thing to do is start at the top of the list (where it's oldest) and work down. Any names you don't recognise, check their contributions, and if they have not been active in say... 6 month remove them? Maybe even trim it down to 4 months? I think there is a link to a users contributions in the toolbox (from their talk or user page) or it might be quicker to use two windows one open with a contributions window and change the user name each time. As for MrN9001 and TDB running AWB it's the large non-archived talk pages which are full of nothing other than un-signpost copies which buggers em up... MrN 21:25, Aug 18
- Alright. I can start trimming it down then. I'm fairly not busy right now. I may perhaps archive some of the pages as well, if necessary. We shall see. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 21:34, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

- true. i'm thinking anyone who hasn't made an edit in six months or more probably wouldn't miss it too much. but most people signed up over a year ago, so i bet we can de-subscribe a good twenty or so out of the 134(?) we have now, at least. 23:24, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
- Something to consider is that some people who are not active may have the page watchlisted with it sending them an e-mail when their paged changes. This helps whore us out. Also, if you ask in the paper I doubt everyone who wants it to be continued to be sent will actually reply. It probably does need to be trimmed down a bit though as I'm sure many of those people are long gone... MrN 23:11, Aug 10
IRC trivia[edit source]
BREAKINGMOTHERFUCKINGNEWS. So yeah, there's this trivia script I'm running in #uncyclopedia now. I initially ran a bot (UncycTrivia) but charitwo told me there's a no-bot policy, so now I just run it from my regular IRC nick (semantics eh?). Most of the questions are fairly fucked up with their grammar, spelling, and insertion of random words (I'm on a continuous process to fix the 20,000+ questions). There are also questions related to Uncyclopedia. i.e.
- Q: WHO DOES THIS REMIND YOU OF
- A: BENSON
- Q: sannse moved to San Francisco because she is a ______ (hint: it starts with an "L")
- A: liberal
I also run it in ##turtle, which is the BHOP of the Uncyclopedia chatrooms (it got its name for the infamous QDB bit about the little girl with the box of turtles). There's also a team mode where players join one of two teams: the Cuntymints or the Throatwarblers ("cuntymints" also being from a notorious IRC discussion about moved keyboard keys, and "throatwarblers" being from Mhaille's image caption on the Virginia Tech Massacre article. Apparently a throatwarbler is a type of bird and does not have anything to do with fellatio as initially presumed).
So, is any of this signpost worthy? --EMC [TALK] 20:30, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Anyone know how I can help deliver the news things?--Killer 3.14 23:06, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

- I know I just want to help.--Killer 3.14 23:12, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
- Well, see, the admins stalk our contributions to see what level of society and respect we're on. Noobs who make random awards wouldn't be given a responsibility like that until they are not noobs that are actually funny. Confusing? It should be, the admins run on Hot Pockets and energy drink after all.--
- Who complains that they get an award??--Killer 3.14 23:19, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

And you never explain why you banned me for a week or how I was "trolling"--Killer 3.14 23:39, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Could someone not interested in insulting me on how I don't help please tell me how I can help ON UNSIGNPOST?--Killer 3.14 02:04, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
- Write a short piece about something that's happening within the community that people will care about and doesn't involve your arrival to our site, then put it here for one of the regular unsignpost editors to read and say wither or not it's good. Orian57 Talk 02:19 19 August 2009

- Random humor is rarely funny. Only a few people are true masters of the universe. Umm... Humor... Most random "humor" ends up being stupid without the funny. Also, Uncyclopedia is suppose to be satire, not all of the several forms of comedy that appear to be here. Not that I'm complaining.

Fantasy Football Draft Finally Finished[edit source]
This probably warrants a story. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 18:33, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
Fantasy Football Draft Finally Finished[edit source]
After four weeks of red-hot eight-man free fantasy football league draft action, the first Uncyclopedia Fantasy Football League (UFFL) Draft is finally at a close: Uncyclopedia regular and DiBiase's Millions general manager The Woodburninator made Arizona Cardinals' Kicker Neil Rackers Mr. Irrelevant on the afternoon of August 21th, 2009, a mere 26 hours after the previous pick had been made. Afterward, League Commissioner and noted Nazi sympathizer Guildensternenstein promised to make all subsequent Uncyclopedia Fantasy Football League official actions run much more smoothly. He vowed he would "put the drafted players on their respective fantasy teams" at some point "after I'm done writing this story for the UnSignpost and before I go see Inglourious Basterds later tonight."
The draft itself was varied, and picks ranged from the predictable (Vikings' running back Adrian Peterson taken first overall) to the even more predictable (Falcons' running back Michael Turner taken with second overall pick) to the fairly predictable (Drew Brees, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady being the first three quarterbacks taken) to the downright wild. Notable steals include Guildy's nabbing of Chris Johnson in Round 5, Woody's snagging of Aaron Rodgers in Round 6, and Bradaphraser's criminal steal of Dallas tight end Jason Witten. For every good pick, there was a bad one, however: in moves that would make Al Davis proud, LongLiverh3 took Philadelphia's No. 3 receiver while their No. 1 and No. 2 receivers were still on the board, made 30th ranked tight end L.J. Smith the second overall tight end picked, and made Baltimore QB Joe Flacco his backup quarter back while the likes of Matt Schaub, Jay Cutler, Ben Roethlisberger and Eli Manning were still available. LongLiver could not be reached for comment.

- what you've got so far is good, though sadly we need a lot more. do you know why the unsignpost went from being weekly to now not? what happened? Also do you have any plans for any of the other boxes? -- Soldat Teh PWNerator (pwnt!) 13:49, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
