Lovin' it[edit | edit source]

As a clown that haunted my childhood once said, I'm lovin' it. (You won't get it if you have never been to McDonald's) Yipyapper Icons-flag-ca.png (talk)

I have been, and yet I don't get it. I'm assuming it's something to do with paedophiles though? --Black Flamingo 19:51, February 26, 2011 (UTC)
Oh wait, you're replying to the comment I left on your talk page. I get it now. I may be slow but I get there in the end. --Black Flamingo 19:56, February 26, 2011 (UTC)
As long as you get it at some point, I won't think twice before staying as your adopted n00b. Yipyapper Icons-flag-ca.png (talk)
By the way, do you like my first in-depth review (I made 2 quick ones before)? I'm not even sure that my one right now was in-depth. Just want opinion. The article on pee review is "I'd like to talk to you about Jesus.."Yipyapper Icons-flag-ca.png (talk)

Whahahah![edit | edit source]

Excellent! Your commitment to PEEING is nearly boundless, going beyond 75 in-depth pee reviews. You provide such vast quantities of piss that you need something special to contain it. So we gladly provide you with this beautiful bathroom bling - keep pissing!



Congratulations. I think. I don't suppose I need to tell you to keep it up, eh? 1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 22:51, 26 February 2011

I've been looking forward to this for so long. Sort of anti-climactic really. --Black Flamingo 23:42, February 26, 2011 (UTC)
Now try to get to 200 before Chief. Jackofspades.png (talk) 23:45, February 26, 2011 (UTC)
Naw, he'll probably burn out around 160. 1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 23:47, 26 February 2011
Thanks for the vote of confidence, L! I'm basically going to continue for as long as you do due to my compulsive urge not to be overtaken in the list. And I'm pretty sure that in the slim chance someone actually threatened Chief's standing he would come back and do another 50 in a month. --Black Flamingo 23:53, February 26, 2011 (UTC)
Let's test that. 1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 01:54, 27 February 2011
Wow. You've been at work since I left. Good job, dude.--HM (T) 23:59, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

Cheese, eh?[edit | edit source]

I personally hate the cheese here. Don' get me wrong, it's probably great to you U.S.A'ers, but I hate it. Your cheese and belgian cheese are much more appeasing to me. Our beer, however, easily tops your beer. Moosehead is the best, and I happen to live right next to the brewery. How lucky am I? Maybe I'll send a few cases over to you, if you haven't tried it. Beer... and canadian bacon. Canada's great, eh? Must suck to live down there. We're not your hat--you're our muddy, soddy boots.

No offense. You will agree with me if you've tried Moosehead.

P.S. Don't drink Molsen Canadian, it's almost as bad as Bud Light. Yipyapper Icons-flag-ca.png (talk)

Nah mate, American cheese is the worst, it tastes like rubber. I personally like British and French cheese the best (I'm English by the way, and we invented cheese, probably). I've never heard of Moosehead but I generally like any beer with a funny name (over here we have beers called things like "Hobgoblin" and "Dragon's Bollocks", which I'm quite fond of, they're the kind of ale that put hairs on your chest). If I ever get the chance I'll try it. --Black Flamingo 14:43, March 2, 2011 (UTC)
Well, at least you don't say you hate moosehead. Dragon's bollocks sounds good, is it vodka? It sounds like a breath of fire or something of the like. Vodka isn't my forte, but I'd have it anyways. English cheese, by the way, isn't too bad. How does that even work? You're our parent country, so your stuff is supposedly our stuff. So your cheese must be the same as ours. Maybe this confusing statement means we are finally completely independent from you. We've reached the age that we don't need british forces to help us, because we are strong.

This paragraph makes no sense. Ignore it, and everything will be alright. --Yipyapper Icons-flag-ca.png (talk) 9:59, March 2nd, 2011 (ATC) I think it's Atlantic Time Zone, I'm from New Brunswick.

Well, the Canadian cheese I mentioned on your talkpage is a kind of cheddar, which is a town in England, so I guess technically it's an English cheese really. In any case, it's delicious. And I thought Canada was independent? If not, may I offer it back to you? We don't really want it anymore. --Black Flamingo 17:13, March 2, 2011 (UTC)
I wouldn't mind having it back. Giving Canada to me, a drinking (I don't get drunk, mind you) and Uncyclopedian guy is a lot better than giving it back to Stephen Harper. Maybe if you guys took better care of us when Canada was a kid, we wouldn't have prime ministers like him. Pierre Trudeau was good though. Wouldn't mind another of him. Maybe it's also time for you guys to get a new queen, she's really old. She might not be able to read documents she signs, I wouldn't trust a 100-something person's vision. Why don't they elect you? You're a Platinum Dumper. --Yipyapper Icons-flag-ca.png (talk) 18:00, March 2nd, 2011 (ATC)

Falkands islands and-something something something[edit | edit source]

Was wondering if you'd be interested in writing a requested article with joint-effort? The topis is Why?:Invade The Falklands and I think that this could be made to be front page material. HOWEVER, I don't think I can reach the article's full potential without help from someone who is more funny and creative than me. Up for it? --Sir Oliphaunte (განხილვა)  Georgia-flag-on-soccer-ball-vector.jpg 22:00, March 4, 2011 (UTC)

I thought you said you wanted someone funny and creative? But sure, I'm up for it. --Black Flamingo 03:43, March 5, 2011 (UTC)
I was going to make that joke, but I felt it rude to satirize the person you're asking assistance from. Anyways, glad to hear you can do it. I already started a tiny bit on the article, but haven't had a chance to sit down at it yet, feel free to do whatever to it though. --Sir Oliphaunte (განხილვა)  Georgia-flag-on-soccer-ball-vector.jpg 04:29, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

Reviews and things[edit | edit source]

Yo, 'go, I put your Joe Pesci on VFH, hopefully it will go on to glory this time. On the reviews, do you think I was too strong in using in-depth on the nom? I just realize it's not my call to make to define a review as in-depth, and I appreciate your comment there. Aleister 13:42 6-3-'11

Thanks, I always thought FB and I (mostly FB) did a good job on that one. As for RotM, I feel kind of bad having to point that out, because like I say, Shab did a great job running that thing. But if those reviews came through the usual PEEING process, I don't think many of them would have gotten a "yes" from L, Chief or myself. Perhaps a UotM nom would have been more appropriate? --Black Flamingo 14:50, March 6, 2011 (UTC)
Ah, I seemed to have again stirred a kettle of fish using my ignorance as the spoon. If so, then it will even itself out in the vote, once more people in the reviewing group chime in. Good catch. And Joe Pesci would be a fine feature addition, and hopefully it sails through this time. Aleister 13:54 6-3-'11
You aren't ignorant Al, just enthusiastic. I think that's why people thought you'd make a good admin (I agree, by the way, although the four temps are doing a damn fine job too). --Black Flamingo 15:00, March 6, 2011 (UTC)
The four temps are ruining everything. They have no idea what they're doing and are running around like a pile of psychotic savages let loose on the world. Er... wiki. I rather suspect Aleister would have been different - no eager enthusiasm to muck up so much so quickly, just interactions with the people, trying to get them recognised. He may be ignorant about some things, but at least he accepts it. Not like those four. 1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 17:21, 6 March 2011

Hydrogen[edit | edit source]

Even though we just got Hydrogen is Being Impersonated!! reviewed I'm not going to be able to work on it as much as I want to as I am currently on spring break and away from my desktop, so I can only use my little bitty laptop. I'll try to do some work over the next week but I can't promise too much until the week after. Anyway, I was thinking about doing something similar to IC for the rewrite where we discuss each section of the article individually on the talk page. Oli made a lot of valid points in the review (although I just skimmed the humor section) that we should definitely think about, and I think discussing it on the talk page before writing would be the best way to go. </walloftext> Jackofspades.png (talk) 06:11, March 7, 2011 (UTC)

That's alright, I do everything at a rather slow pace anyway. I'll leave some ideas on the talk page soon. --Black Flamingo 10:03, March 7, 2011 (UTC)

Oh Also[edit | edit source]

Urinating fountain.jpg

I just peed on something you wrote. I apologize profusely for that.

I'll attempt to control my bladder in the future. No promises though

I went and did this. Hope you don't mind. Jackofspades.png (talk) 06:20, March 8, 2011 (UTC)

Cajek-Pee[edit | edit source]

Right now you have me at 9 in-depth reviews for this month, but I only count 8 that are struck out right now. Maybe I missed one or perhaps you counted the one that Oli reviewed that was on my userpage. I don't know, I just don't want to upset the balance (or whatever.) Jackofspades.png (talk) 22:03, March 8, 2011 (UTC)

Shit. Why the others left me to do this I don't know. Thanks for pointing it out, I'll check on it in a moment. --Black Flamingo 22:11, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
The others are slow and not on top of things. Don't blame us; we get around to it eventually. 1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 20:40, 12 March 2011

We did it OR it did us[edit | edit source]

Bro! Pard, Flamingo! Yea! Our Joe Pesci Collab got featured, for Monday. That's a half for each of us. Man, gotta do that again. Congrats!--Funnybony Icons-flag-th.png Agnideva-small.jpg AGT-logo-small.jpg 20:10, Mar 12

Ah Bony, you deserve the most congrats here, having started the page and writing the bulk of it. But thanks anyway! It was a fun page to write and I always thought it was featureable, despite it failing the first time around. On another note, I saw Jeff Beck playing guitar on TV the other day, and apart fom being blown away by how good he was, it reminded me of you. Now I'm off to update the HOS, take care. --Black Flamingo 02:19, March 13, 2011 (UTC)
Congrats. I hope Pesci gets to read it. Maybe contact his agent or something. I saw what you did in your hall of shame entry, and understand it, but it could throw off the historical progression of your features and any counts. But no policy about any of that though. Champagne to your table, sirs. Aleister 3:57 13-3-'11
I didn't think it would matter since my HOS section is horrendously out of order anyway. Whoever made it (possibly Socky) just threw them all in randomly I think. But I don't mind, the list on my userpage is in an order that only makes sense to me too (ie. disorder). Thanks for the nom, Al. --Black Flamingo 11:15, March 13, 2011 (UTC)
Serious malfunction of the hoshame section. Please place them in chronological order. This is a request from bot central, Hall of shame division. Hall of Shame bot, whose job it is to see that all hall of shame entries make sense, make sense, make sense, bop. Reboot.
Hmm, I don't remember making it, anyhow. Also, don't you have twenty three features now? Sir SockySexy girls.jpg Mermaid with dolphin.jpg Tired Marilyn Monroe.jpg (talk) (stalk)Magnemite.gif Icons-flag-be.png GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotYPotM WotM 12:43, 13 March 2011
It might have been Hype, although maybe I'm just saying that because I want him on my talkpage too. Socky, if you want to count them be my guest, I don't have anywhere near enough fingers to do that. --Black Flamingo 12:59, March 13, 2011 (UTC)
Seem to be 22, but number 23 has probably been featured since I started counting. Aleister 14:22 13-3-'11
I thought I had 21, and there were 23 article on VFH? --Black Flamingo 13:49, March 13, 2011 (UTC)
What are you talking about? I thought the discussion was about how many Features you have. Now you want all of them on VFH? Well, why not. With 23 more you now have 45 features! Yay! Aleister 14:53 13-3-'11

Mh pizza article[edit | edit source]

Mr. Flamingo, I just found your comments about my pizza article. It was a thrill to read it. You gave me good advice. You ask if I have edited here before, the answer is no. I learned of the site from Rahm Emanuel, who reads it often, and when I'm not busy and you would not believe the crap I have to put up with, I will write here sometimes. I would thank you for your advice. President Barack Obama 02:23, March 14, 2011 (UTC)

Hydrogen[edit | edit source]

I added a bit to the last section, but I'm not sure if it fits. Other than that I'm pretty much out of ideas. Although, it's already significantly better than it was a month ago. Jackofspades.png (talk) 02:46, March 17, 2011 (UTC)

It does stick out a little bit, yeah... I think having three attempts at impersonation is too many. I was actually happy with just the one, but we could compromise and cut back to two? To be honest though I don't really get either of the two new attempts. When you say Rutherford "changed his experiment slightly and submit it to a scientific journal under the guise of furthering the pursuit of science", for instance, it's a bit vague. And I couldn't figure out what you meant by "It appears that this impersonating charlatan left his work for Urey to find", either. I would like to do some gentle trimming if that's ok? Brevity is definitely one of the article's strengths in my opinion. As for adding new stuff, I think you're right, we're basically done here. Nice work. --Black Flamingo 20:17, March 17, 2011 (UTC)
Yep, I'm going to go through and change up some of the wording, specifically those two parts you mentioned. Jackofspades.png (talk) 02:54, March 18, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for pee[edit | edit source]

Thanks for the review dude. Also, nice to meet you. I'm enjoying the site quite a lot, except they killed my kitty.

They killed my kitty ---User:BobNewbieI have a talking zombie 11:48, March 18, 2011 (UTC)

I'm sorry to hear that Mr. Bob, they killed my spirit too. --Black Flamingo 14:54, March 18, 2011 (UTC)

Another thanks for pee, the fuck naked article. I'm really glad you took it, that is about the best thing to happen to me since my dog found my genitals were lickable. I won't read it until tomorrow, as I want to savor it (tonight, things to do in a few minutes), but it's like a Christmas present hanging there with a rope around its neck waiting for me to walk in and find it, like when I was four (Mom, did I do something wrong? Mom, why are your feet floating off the ground? Are you like that tinklebell? Can you make me pancakes now? Mom?). But yes, yes! Thanks again. Aleister 2:34 19-3-'11

Genitals are lickable you say? Why was I not informed? Not a problem Al, it was a joy to read. --Black Flamingo 02:43, March 19, 2011 (UTC)
Good review. I'll work on the page at some point soon. Yeah, the dog pic is overused on the site and others, although the caption goes with the text. Maybe I can find something in category:Things humping other things. If I remove the Not safe for work things someone will just put them up again, and probably in a worse location, but I'll try. By feature I meant I'm not fretting over it, but it'd be fun to have it as a 40th feature (I have a few to go, but may do it before the year is out. And you'll get there soon too...... . .and by the way, have you read Skunk on VFH, hint hint, nudge nudge). Lots to work with from your review. Thanks again. And I did a few redirects on names yesterday, and linked User:Black Flamingo to your page. Aleister 14:56 19-3-'11
Good point about the NSFW template, but I'll back you up if you go ahead and remove it. It's obvious from the title that you shouldn't be looking at it at work anyway. --Black Flamingo
Also thanks for PEE. Bony's excised the top which seems to make it more self-consistent - though it's a shame to lose the huge psychedelic mushrooms. I think it makes sense now. Take a look some time and thanks for not saying it sucks - still not sure it'll make sense to any Americans other than Bony--Sog1970 19:00, March 19, 2011 (UTC)
No problem. It is a shame about the shrooms, but it definitely has a better flow now. When you're ready let me know, and I'll nom/vote for/whatever. Looks ready to me now. --Black Flamingo 19:05, March 19, 2011 (UTC)

Psychedelic music[edit | edit source]

Great review! Please take a look now. I think we've got it. BTW: I was close friends with Peel since 1964-5 until he died. I even lived with him on occasions. In the beginning of his career he said we were the best, and in the end of his career he still said that (The year before he died, UK Readers Digest asked him, "After your whole life which is the best band you're even seen?" John replied, "The Misunderstood!" Gaaa!!! At least his opinion counts a lot to me and many others. Please Nom Psychedelic music if you feel like it. Much appreciated. Cheers!--Funnybony Icons-flag-th.png Agnideva-small.jpg AGT-logo-small.jpg 20:32, Mar 19

Funnybony, WTF, you ruined the page. That opening pic was one of the best things on the entire site, and if you're not using it I'll take it for a page I'm doing. Where did the Radio Show go that Sog worked so hard on, now it's just a run on with nothing to tell us where the songs come in???? The pic is gone, the radio show is reduced to words and side pics. Ruined, thrown to the dogs, why, why????? Take the mushrooms! Use the mushrooms! Aleister 20:47 19-3-'11
Yeah, I've heard about your relationship with Peel, it's amazing. You know the underground trains around here have his name emblazoned across them? (along with our other local legend Red Rum, who was a popular racehorse - true story). I really like the new style, and as I said to Sog it is a shame to lose the mushrooms, but the flow has improved. You can't please everyone, apparently. VFH ho! --Black Flamingo 01:44, March 20, 2011 (UTC)
Al was joking. He likes the article better now. Sog was trying to salvage my old intro, but it was not happening. Yes, I stayed with John and his first wife both in California as well as in London. And we stayed friends all his life. In fact, John might still be alive today had he not died. Thanks for the Pee and Nom, Bro. Cheers!--Funnybony Icons-flag-th.png Agnideva-small.jpg AGT-logo-small.jpg 12:30, Mar 20
Joking? Oh, yes, ah, ok, joking. The body of the page is very good (Well, I love the mushroom pic and an old caption about it. I took the pic, which was on no pages and set for deletion from the pic-killing admins. So I saved it! Saved it I tell you!). You know, I've never done the one-month mushroom thing (take good quality mushrooms every day for a month) but I've heard of it. Soon. Hopefully. Aleister 13:18 20-3-'11

Hey[edit | edit source]

Quick question, what are those numbers next to all the pee reviews that are checked? Are those the numbers of points made or something? Also, I'm not sure if you had a chance to take a look at that Falklands article, did some work there. --Sir Oliphaunte (განხილვა)  Georgia-flag-on-soccer-ball-vector.jpg 20:34, March 21, 2011 (UTC)

You mean the ones that look like fractions? If that's the case it's the date they were checked - it took me over a year to figure that out so don't worry. I don't have any good ideas for the Falklands article to be honest (not yet anyway). All I can think of is doing is "God said we should" for the next section... a crap idea really. --Black Flamingo 20:44, March 21, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks[edit | edit source]

For your two votes. Two, not just one (or none), Two! Appreciated. I was surprised Tombstone was on VFH, that was fun. Last time it got vandalized while on VFH and I didn't know it, so people were voting on a vandalized page!! Pwned. Thanks again, twice! Aleister 1:58 26-3-'11

Thanks[edit | edit source]

I don't know if it's the fact that my underdog team just won a major football match and are doing the best they've done in years, or that I just finished a huge amount of work, but I feel extremely energetic and joyous. In this state of happiness, I realized that I never thanked you for adopting me and leading me to a prosperous promising start here. Although you may not think much of it, I do. In order to express my happiness, I give you the choice of either a boston cream pie or a ticket for a free massage. Your choice.

P.S. My massages are not 'happy-ending,' but then again, neither are the boston cream pies... --Sir Oliphaunte (განხილვა)  Georgia-flag-on-soccer-ball-vector.jpg 02:54, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, only just noticed this. I don't really feel like I did much, you did all that good stuff yourself really, but thanks for the kind words nonetheless. As for the reward, can I split the two? Half a pie and half a massage? Who are your team, by the way? --Black Flamingo 00:01, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
Still kept me interested in actually doing something here. Joined a while back and lost interest, but this time, you...*sniff*...you kept me going. That means a lot to me *dramatic hug.* And yea, would you like them at the same time? Don't think it can't be done.
It's just my national team, finally have a chance to get into the Euro championship for the first time in a while; although we did just lose to Israel (insert anti-semetic joke here)... --Sir Oliphaunte (განხილვა)  Georgia-flag-on-soccer-ball-vector.jpg 20:49, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

"Infinite Jest" PR[edit | edit source]

Hi,

Thanks for the review, and the occasional kind words.

However:

You expressed an interest in reading the book -- but haven't yet done so (and, at 1000+ pages, it kinda takes a while). Just READ IT (I highly recommend doing so), and THEN get back to me. My article is aimed SOLELY at people who have read it (and why would anyone bother looking up, much less reading, an article about a book they haven't read, anyway?).

Just to address one random example you cited:

Look at your first section heading for instance; "setting", you just claim that Atlantis is under the Yangtze River. Is that supposed to be a joke or is it actually mentioned in the article? Simply saying things that are silly and untrue is rarely amusing. Not unless the lie is somehow satirical, I suppose. Absurdity can be funny, but it has to be surprising. Most of the time, randomness isn't surprising.

As even the Wikipedia article mentions, the novel is set in a fictional suburb of Boston named Enfield, which is a stand-in for an actual suburb of Boston called Allston. There used to be a town in Western MA called Enfield, but it's long been submerged under a huge artificial lake called the Quabbin Reservoir.

So: I'm combining a real place being mislabeled with the name of a long-since-flooded place, AND the myth of Atlantis, AND the real flooding of many Chinese towns the Three Gorges Dam required. Three things combined into one -- which is at least moderately funny, if you know about all three.

Yes, two approaches are indeed needed, unless one is deleted (but, heck, delete both of them -- what do I care?); both the "encyclopedic" general description, and then the footnote/endnote parody. I see no reason why both shouldn't be used -- then again, arguing with a reviewer has long been considered a sign of weakness on the part of an "artist," so I guess I'll shut up right about now.

However, two more points:

(1) Essentially, what you're doing here is saying "isn't this funny?" rather than making any jokes yourself. Take a look at this line for instance, "also, bonus LOLsies about the dim-witted wives of Canadian spammers who all walk with a slight limp". See what I mean? You're not doing anything humorous here, you're just pointing out something funny about the novel itself. It's like writing an article about Monty Python and saying "the knights who say 'ni' are funny".

Again: READ THE DAMN NOVEL, or at least reread the Wikipedia article. The novel actually features pretty-tragic stuff about the (grotesquely) physically and mentally impaired wife of a Canadian terrorist, who (like his fellow terrorists) is in a wheelchair. I'm not doing anything AMAZINGLY humorous here -- just like when I replaced a tennis academy with a ping-pong academy, a dog who got gruesomely tortured to death with a hamster who didn't get petted lovingly enough, etc. -- but it's still more Funny than Stupid, IMHO. (YMMV, of course, but only after you've READ THE DAMN NOVEL.)

Long story short: one part of my article over-exaggerates the reality of the events described in the novel; the other under-exaggerates it. Which is EXACTLY how Wallace's novel alternatingly over- and under-exaggerated the reality of (fictional) events in real life. (One minute, people are virtually and actually dying; the next, a Fed and a "quadruple agent" -- the Canadian terrorist [q.v. supra] who is betraying the Québecois cause in order to keep his by-now-comatose freak of a wife alive -- calmly discuss the philosophy of capitalism for a few hours, on the side of a mountain in Tucson, AZ.)

(2) I'm still working on a pic -- a map of "NAFTAstan" (the "Organization of North American Nations," or "O.N.A.N.," in the original), incl. a huge hockey rink (instead of the toxic-waste dump known as "The Great Convexity/Concavity" -- because what else do Canadians and Americans have in common, these days, other than the NHL?), and a star indicating "Atlantis." I'll finish it up any day now, once my work emergency subsides, AND when I'm done with simultaneously buying one house and renting out another. Sorry for the delay. (I might also Google for some random online pics which might become "artist's impressions" of a few main characters.)

But aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanyway... Thanks again for your lovely and intelligent PR. (Seriously: my article has been sitting there for weeks, now, so it was about time someone PR'd it. I wasn't gonna do it myself.) – Preceding unsigned comment added by Stumbo (talk • contribs)

Ok, fair enough, but the point of a pee review is to determine what's holding the article back. If you have to come to my talk page and explain your jokes in such detail it only shows how niche they truly are. If you're happy with that then great, ignore the review, all I'm saying is that it's unlikely to be featured or considered funny by the vast majority of people who read it. But whatever you do with it; good luck, and I apologise if I sounded harsh in the review. --Black Flamingo 11:38, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

No offense taken, I assure you. But yes, of course it's very niche. (In fact, one of the jokes is a reference to a very different -- even more tragic, but a lot funnier -- Russian book; I doubt the number of people who've read both exceeds 10. Never mind, people who've also read the Russian book carefully or often enough to remember the throw-away joke I'm referring to. Never mind, who've also even heard of this site. Who cares? I was rolling.) -- Stumbo 22:53, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

Excuse me. Anyway, it looks to me that you voted for on HowTo:Become a Master of Disguise and were inducted into the brotherhood of disguise masters. Well guess what? It made it into featured queue, which entitles you to the golden Groucho Marx glasses award. Congratulations.

It is in much better shape and, in my opinion, worth a for vote on VFH. I still don't understand the wench picture though, perhaps one has to have succumb to the insanity of categorising for that to make sense? --Black Flamingo 09:47, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

pee review[edit | edit source]

the picture in question.

In the pee review article,in the images section,it says: "The first one is hard to follow, and not just because your caption seems to make no sense. It's hard to see what the characters are saying, and to be honest, even when I did read it I wasn't too sure what they were talking about. I'm guessing it's a bit of an esoteric reference. While this isn't so bad, it might be worth coming up with a better opening image than this - something big and broad that establishes your concept." You said you are troubled by what it says; but i saw the meaning clearly.It is two characters from pokemon(both are elite four members)watching a shitty Yaoi fanfic on an ipad. The speech is like this:


Guy :How do you read such shitty fanfics like this ........ME WITH
MARSHALL(another elite four member in the same pokemon game of both
characters in the picture)?!ASDPGHRFF~
Women : I didn't read that...Catlin did borrow my ipad before......


That means the guy is a victim of the fandom, since he is a canon character.
One note is the guy is called grimsley and the women is called shauntal.
Hope this helps!--Fcukman 05:33, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Fuckin' Naked!![edit | edit source]

And by the way, I've worked on People Who Like to Fuck Naked from your pee review until I was blew in the face (Ma!!), and it maaaayyyyy just be ready for the feature thing. If you give me a thumbs up, I'll lift it off (my Ma's favorite saying). Thanks, Al Ma!!! Stop it!

Yeah it's better, it still looks a bit rough around the edges but I guess that's consistent with the subject matter. It's hilarious enough to vote for though. --Black Flamingo 16:47, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

Awesome, thanks. Always feel free to add other advice or suggestions if you think of any, just let us PEEING guys know if you do. --Black Flamingo 11:53, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
Thank you twenty times for your review of Damaged goods. Some great suggestions and I'll get working on it. The Jew Baby beanie baby was a true thing - a woman I know and I were at a store near Christmas and I saw a beanie with "Jew Baby" across it's chest, alluding to Jesus, and I later kicked myself for not buying it. The next day, in the midst of an ice storm which nearly sent her car into a ditch twice on frozen roads, she took me for a drive, and as a surprise it was back to the store so she could get me the "Jew Baby" beanie. When I picked it up to look at it, what I had read as Jew Baby was actually "New Baby" with a crease in the fabric or ribbon so it looked like "Jew" instead of "new". I, of course, still have it. Long story longer. And congrats on your two UnNews masterpieces on VFH. I must agree with Mattlobster that the dino pic needs no caption, it could stand alone and be funnier (although I get the caption's connection to the narrative). Thanks again for your great advice for Damaged goods! Aleister 00:23 17-4-'11
Cool story about the beanie baby, now if only you could explain it to everyone else who ever reads the article... Hope the review helps; it's a great article as I said. I'm glad you like my UnNewses too, although the chaos one will surely fail due to its silliness. With the dinosaur caption, I'd be happy for someone to change it, but I really don't understand people's vitriol against it. --Black Flamingo 21:13, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
The caption works, but I think the picture is so funny in itself that clarification just brings the joke down to a description when it needs none. Thanks, beanie baby thing. By clarifying it as a Christmas beanie kind of describes the name Jew Baby. Your review helped very much, and I implemented all or almost all of your suggestions. Now when are we going to collab on a new Frat page??? It's been months, man, months! Aleister 1:53 19-4-'11

Maybe even using the wiki pages as sporks. This would then be the internet comedy world's finest manual on how to fuck, a noble project. Sog and TKF are interested, would you join the clown pack?

Thank you, Spike. I replaced the photo with a similar but marginally better one; it's hard to find funny images of zooplankton. Is that any better or did you have something else in mind? --Black Flamingo 10:53, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

And now it's time for... THE IDIOT'S QUESTION OF THE DAY!!! How would I be able to make my signature into something recognizable, like yous or Lyritya's? Mine never turns out anything. Z3R0 H0UR

First, create a page in your userspace for the signature, like this: User:Z3R0 H0UR/sig - that will be your actual sig. Then you need to read this which should explain how to get it to appear when you type four tildes. As for actually making sigs, well, as you can probably tell from mine I have no real skill in that. Lyrithya or PuppyOnTheRadio are particularly good at it if you want a fancy one. If there's anything there you don't understand let me know. --Black Flamingo 09:07, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

Since you reviewed this way back when, I reckon I should ask... is this better? I removed a bit of it. I know it's still probably complete nonsense, but I like complete nonsense... 1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 23:03, 11 May 2011

Better? Yes, definitely. Without getting too in-depth: I don't think it's too nonsensical, I do think some of the middle feels really unnecessary and forced though, mainly the stuff about links and code and the like. The examples of "what you can do" are oddly specific, for example. Looks like it could sneak throuh VFH regardless though so I wouldn't worry too much. --Black Flamingo 19:54, May 12, 2011 (UTC)
Frankly, I'd rather the article not suck, than get it featured... anyhow, the bit about patterning the links, does that still fit, or should it go? I'll miss it... 1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 20:15, 12 May 2011

A few things: putting two equals sings either side of a word will make a new header as I've just done above this, and you should do this at the bottom of the page rather than the top. If you want to just add a new section, there is a box with a + sign on it next to the edit button (test this on my talk page if you want). I recommend reading the beginner's guide for tips on editing. Anything else you need? --Black Flamingo 23:28, May 13, 2011 (UTC)
No. Thanks man. I am trying making some articles by copying. Pictures are a problem but then I guess everybody has to read the beginner's guide once. I will buzz if I encounter a roadblock. :) --PoopManPoop 23:33, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

Hello![edit | edit source]

Hi Black Flamingo, just a word to say I saw your name all over the place while I am making a niche here and I really appreciate the people here. The voting thing is so different from ED, where a 2 hour job was sufficient to be on the main page. This place is a challenge. Feel free to contact me for anything, I log in almost daily. Peace bro! Talk Mattsnow 00:37, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well since you ask I could use some extra cash? --Black Flamingo 19:24, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

Re:ED review[edit | edit source]

Thanks boatloads for that! It's very helpful, possibly the first helpful pee I've ever gotten (not counting a lot of other helpful pees I've gotten). I suddenly remembered why I tied it all together with Entourage, though: because it all made too much sense. The principal character of Entourage, Vincent, has a brother who, too coincidentally, is nicknamed Drama. Vincent is the big movie star while Drama is the black sheep who loafes and rides on his coattails. The parallels to draw were too easy to ignore. Also, the "an hero" line is one of ED's favorite memes: check it out!

In any case, I'll be taking much of your advice and improving on the article right now. Thank ya! --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFCK Oldmanonly.jpg 01:05, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

User:PoopManPoop/UnNews: Deranged scientist shocks world, himself. --PoopManPoop 18:35, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

Well, it's a good start. The biggest problem is probably that it's a bit random, which makes it hard to follow at times; this is especially evident in the second paragraph. The first paragraph is considerably stronger though, both in terms of concept and of how well it's written. I would recommend you proofread it (or ask someone else to) as the grammar's slightly messy. Apart from that it's a decent first article; nice work. If you need any more advice I recommend taking it to Pee Review, where myself or someone else can do an in-depth review when we have a spare hour or two. Hope that helps; keep writing! --Black Flamingo 19:50, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
Thank you kind sir. Lets see if I could improve it. I have entered it into Pee Review. And will be working on it for a while. Thanks, be in touch. :) P.S. I know smileys are douchy but cool.--PoopManPoop 21:47, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
Sorry to disturb you again, but it can't be overlooked anymore, I am still not getting the yellow message informing me about a new message. If someone posts on my talk page then someting shows up, but otherwise I have to go through all you guys' talk pages daily. It's getting tougher to do as I am getting to know more of..uh, you people.--PoopManPoop 23:22, May 17, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah that's how it works I'm afraid. Sorry. --Black Flamingo 16:13, May 19, 2011 (UTC)
No problem Mr Flamingo..guy, I have learned the hard way, well not so hard, that there are no yellow messages for notifications and I will just use the watchlist for my purpose like evrybody else.--PoopManPoop 17:30, May 19, 2011 (UTC)

Pic huffing[edit | edit source]

Hi bro, I will not need that one for my article, I found a better one, so you can huff it: File:Bohemiangrove2.jpg. Can users huff pics or only the admins? If it occurs another time, should I do what I just did and ring for you or another admin? Later! Talk Mattsnow 01:56, May 19, 2011 (UTC)

Came to say hi. Well, that and i have put up an entry of my own on VFH. check it out.--PoopManPoop 16:32, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

VFH[edit | edit source]

I voted for your Abe Lincoln was an asshat UnNews. Nice work. And Mattsnow would like to join the frat and do a collab, maybe we can pick a topic and go with it. I'll look over the topic names and see what there is to see. Aleister Saturday

That's the msot postmodern whoring I've ever had, and I've slept with a transhuman prostitue. Also, yes, another frat collab would be great; I'll check the list too. --Black Flamingo 12:00, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
The list we work from is the "50 most linked with no pages" or whatever. I looked at that one and arbritarily choose "Muse". Is there another good one? Boyfriend is on another list, so is out of the frat range. Rules rules, rules meant to be broken. How about we do both of them as Frat projects, and to hell with Skinfan, who is probably sand meat in Afghanistan by this time. Aleister whoring is good for the soul
p.s. I was wrong, boyfriend is on the list. Voting is for sissies. Either or is good, or both. Thoughts?
Muse did my catch my eye too, that will be fine. But we could always attempt both, in case one goes horribly wrong. For boyfriend I was thinking we could do it from the perspective of a girlfriend giving other girlfriends advice on how to deal with boyfriends? For muse I have no ideas at all. --Black Flamingo 12:17, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
Sounds good. Two for the price of none. Boyfriend idea sounds good. Muse, the muse will hit us as we start it. OK, that's decided. Let's just throw "Feature" tags on them and be done with it. No, we better write them. I'll alert some of the troops, maybe, later. And what's that UnNews I see you listed on VFH, I'll go take a look at it now. Aleister later, saturday

Thanks for your votes on pages, and for the Foolitizer Prize (I've already traded that for two quasi-features and a random page). Maybe we should start the frat collabs soon, if you haven't already. I'll get on Muse later today (heh heh). And don't you look at your user page, or are you happy with the decorating? (I actually use my user page as my watchlist, by checking recent changes) Thanks again! Aleister 13:42 1-6-'11

Looks like our underlings have already started work, but I'll see if I can get on both Muse and Boyfriend over the next few days. I only really use my userpage as an archive of things I've written, but I quite like your new spin on it. It's very minimal, very feng-shui. --Black Flamingo 13:59, June 1, 2011 (UTC)

It's a puzzle alright; I think it's an absolute gem. It might have something to do with the fact that no one's heard of him, or maybe a shared distrust of small people... Give it time mate, some articles just get overlooked because no one has time to read them. I've been guilty of that myself. --Black Flamingo 20:03, June 7, 2011 (UTC)

Just so happened...[edit | edit source]

Yo, I was out for a walk here at the Bilderburg meeting up in the Alps and happened to run into President Barack Obama, that guy from the states who works with Biden and his crowd. In the course of our talk I happened to mention uncyclopedia, and he surprised me by saying he had written an article there, something about a pizza, but had to retire because of pressing business. But, WTF?, he asked me to say hi to you, which surprised me hearing your name in that setting. Anyway, we had a great afternoon meeting, and just between you and me, spend all your money now because in a few months it'll be worth soy cow. Alright, just passing along the Prez's message. Aleister 21:23 9-6-'11

Wait, you mean President Barack Obama is the same person as User:President Barack Obama? Wow. Hey, I met a guy called Aleister in Chains once, was he any relation to you? --Black Flamingo 21:41, June 9, 2011 (UTC)
Huh? I like the chains, but only in private with the right person. Anyway, this Obama guy gave me a few edits to put up on his page, so I've done that. What a nice man! He had a smile that could charm the world, and apparantly has. He only played grab-ass with me for a few seconds, and I told him "I don't swing that way mister!" and he ran off. But still smiling (I think it's sewed in there). Aleister 21:45
I'm definitely voting for User:President Barack Obama for 'crat in 2011. --Black Flamingo 22:54, June 9, 2011 (UTC)
Cool! If I see him in our meetings I'll tell him. His homepage is very nice, I like the presidential seal he put on it. Makes it kind of official looking. And that article he wrote is top notch, the cat's meow, crab apples to navel oranges, a thing of beauty to behold. But his wife, jeez, you want to know who really runs that country just look at her in action and you know who wears the pants in that family. Alright, another meeting, this one on "Economic Stagnation in Europe" it sounds like a two-bags-of-popcorn bardburner. Aleister 10:25 10-6-'11

Pee review[edit | edit source]

Thanks for reviewing the Quebec article with such details, it's really helpful! I was starting to get discouraged since 3 of my articles have been sitting there for awhile now. There should be a rule saying that anyone who leaves an article there should return the favor and do one themselves. But maybe then the quality of the reviews would drop... But yours is really top-notch. Talk Mattsnow 22:35, June 11, 2011 (UTC)

It would be nice if people did that. There is a suggestion to do so on the main pee page, but I think a rule would be taking it a bit far. I don't think quality would be an issue; I mean, it can't get any worse, right? --Black Flamingo 22:42, June 11, 2011 (UTC)
Well I always do a Pee Review when dumping one, I'm getting better at it, but I'll take yours as an exemple next time! :P I was wondering if it would be a good idea to keep some Quebec "inside jokes". I'll cut the more boring ones. I think it's better to have a good 15KB article than an average 25KB one, isn't it? Also, I think you said this page was popular if I am not mistaken, where can I see the articles views? Thanks for your help, Black, I also added some meat on the boyfriend collab. Talk Mattsnow 03:10, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
I don't recall saying that, but then my memory isn't what it used to be (at least, I don't think it is, I can't quite remember). There probably is a way to see how many views a page has had, but it no doubt requires a mix of technological know-how and time to spare - neither of which I have. I'll see if I can add to boyfriend too though. --Black Flamingo 10:52, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
All right! I just saw the paragraph on the front page about my glorious notm award, I don't know who wrote it, it is pretty funny! Do you happen to know who wrote it? I'd like to drop him/her a line! Talk Mattsnow 21:02, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

Can I huff a pee review request I did? It would be doping in sports, it is now on feature queue, so I'd like to replace it with another article I have, therefore not adding unnecessary misery to Pee Review. And your addition on the boyfriend article is hilarious! The article is coming along great! Talk Mattsnow 03:32, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
All you need to do is fill in all the boxes and that will move it Reviewed Pee. Just put something like "I don't want a review anymore". I'll do it for you now. --Black Flamingo 19:31, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
Um, I can't find the pee page. You sure you created it? --Black Flamingo 19:34, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
Um, you're right, it's not there anymore, it was 2 days ago. And it's not in the 'reviewed' section either. Could it be it deleted itself since it was there for so long? Or maybe an admin lurked here before you replied and huffed it. In any case, everything is fine. Thanx for the tip if I don't want a review anymore. Talk Mattsnow 22:51, June 14, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks a ton for the review. Oddly enough, pretty much every issue you brought up is something that I had concerns about putting the article up for review, so I'm glad we're on the same page, basically.

For the tiny review! I don't know whether to stick with this made-up Tyson Brando character or go with Robert DeNiro. Which do you think would be funnier? I am literally 50/50 on this decision.

Good work in rounding up people for Inbox. As the page is now some of it is pretty bad, imnho, so please keep the helm on this project and edit unmercifily (sp????!!!) before the final bell is announced.

Don't worry, I will. I think it needs more ideas before we start trimming it though, I'm approaching other writers. --Black Flamingo 13:35, June 19, 2011 (UTC)
You are a leader and a gentleman. Yeah, lots more, because with something like this if you get 20 ideas maybe 5 of them will be top-rate, and if the page turns out like the potential it has, gives me the shivers in me timbers. Aleister 13:42 19-6-'11

Guildy's inbox ideas[edit | edit source]

Okay, so here are my impressions/ideas:

  • There's, like, four penis enlargement jokes, so a few of those could probably be cut.
  • Idea: StumbleUpon - <insert name here>, enjoy your weekly recommendations from StumbleUpon! As if you don't waste enough of your workday already...
  • Idea: There should also be something pertaining to passwords--either confirming the password to some obscure/made-up internet forum, or a message about how you've forgotten your password yet again because you're an idiot. Something like: [some internet forum] - New Password Reset Confirmation, Again Stop forgetting your password. Your new password is Dje5HEzq@*!3plQ89...

If I think of anything else, I'll let you know. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 16:28, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

Democracy is not permanent[edit | edit source]

Young man, ive done a wack of changes to the article you reviewed (thanks again). If you have a chance it would be great to see what you think of the change. I originally wrote this article as a commentary about how some leaders do pretty rediculous stuff and no one says anything cause its easier or they fear getting burnt themselves...but anyways, I cut most of that you and it is MUCH better this way. Now its more about a guy trying to make do with the balanced guy he is, trying to be nice enough and wise about power games and that hes got and try a little more to be grateful. I really took to heart your suggestions about keeping the narrative in the 2nd person, with the strange outside voice narrating his actions and on one side confirming his own opinion about himself, but on the other side telling him to stand up a bit more and contribute a tiny bit. Anyhoo...i guess that should come across without me saying it...but thats what im asking you here. Does that come across now? I know there are no lol moments and there shouldnt be, but theres a tense humour that goes on throughout and I would like at some point see an article featured thats niche and evocative. Anyhoo...wahduya think abut it now!? And I also thought about making it an UnBook. --ShabiDOO 04:31, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

It's definitely better, and I still like it. I'll try to give it a proper read at the weekend when I've got time though. Definitely keep it in mainspace; mainspace rocks. --Black Flamingo 19:15, June 23, 2011 (UTC)

User:Skinfan13/Upsilon Sigma Sigma/Collaboration/June2011collab2[edit | edit source]

I just wrote another section thanks to a section header you put on there, it'll make a nice conclusion I think. Should we make another section in-between some we have? I admit I'm kinda stuck. But I think it's rather good on the whole, just needs another section or 2. Talk Mattsnow 12:26, June 26, 2011 (UTC)

Ah you remind me of me when I first joined the frat; bubbling with enthusiasm and bursting with good ideas. I will definitely add some more soon, I just don't really have a computer right now. There is no rush; it took me months to write Weird before Aleister chipped in, and he spent a similarly long time trying to get me to add something to Blockbuster. Good work so far though mate, it'll definitely be a feature in time. --Black Flamingo 12:33, June 26, 2011 (UTC)
I hope the enthusiasm is contagious, that is a great compliment! Well, I thought the deadline was the end of this month, so that is why I sound like I am in a hurry lol, what happens if it's not finished? Some other article start and this one is released in the wild? And I've retouched the Quebec article some but still a lot to be done, I don't remember if I told you, but you Pee Review was so helpful. (Goes back trying to be funny at some place) Talk Mattsnow 21:10, June 26, 2011 (UTC)

Well, it was because... and no offense intended here... they weren't really jokes, they were just more examples of silly emails. I'm trying to keep it satirical; to put a spin on pre-existing ideas about email/spam/the internet. --Black Flamingo 22:09, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Pee Review[edit | edit source]

Eh thanks for the review on Bohemian Grove! I'll touch it up soon, but I have too much nearly finished projects and too little time! I wanted to know if there is a place that keeps track of the number of Pee Review one has done. I take pride in not submitting more articles there than the number of reviews I've done, I'm fairly sure I balance positively, but it'd be good to know, since I just submitted another. I like the pic you put in the collab very much! So much better than the old one. Talk Mattsnow 14:04, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

There's this, it's kind of pee review's worst kept secret. Glad the review was ok. --Black Flamingo 00:42, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
Congrats on all your Pee Reviews! This has to be the most unsung, yet very important part of the site. I'm gonna go Nom you if it isn't already done for this month as soon as I hit the "Save" button. I couldn't get my total Pee Reviews there, but I could see I have done 5 in May (It's weird because I am nowhere to be seen in the 2011 section, but I just consumed 6 beers so... I may be missing something!) I'm positively flattered 4 of the 5 are considered in-depths (I have too much respect for the writer to just scramble through it so I can say I "balance") In fact, I found enjoyment in doing those, and eventually nommed HowTo:Get into Heaven after Mimo retouched it. It was as cool as having my article recognized as good. Cheers! Talk Mattsnow 01:41, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
I've had three pints of bitter and you're in there alright; 7 total reviews, 5 in-depth. In other words you still have a life. --Black Flamingo 01:57, July 2, 2011 (UTC)
You make me laugh! And what about that collab, I feel it's good but I'm dry, have we hit the wall? Let it not be so and put the final touches in! (Both of us since nobody's in a rush it seems) Talk Mattsnow 04:21, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Falklands[edit | edit source]

Just got a pee review for the Falklands article. I don't know if you're still interested, but if you're free some time, maybe take a look and see what you think could be tweaked. I don't fully agree with the image comments, but maybe I'm expecting people to know more history than they actually do. --Sir Oliphaunte (განხილვა)  Georgia-flag-on-soccer-ball-vector.jpg 21:18, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Ahh, forgot all about it. Sorry. I'll try to read it soon though, unfortunately don't have much time for Uncyc at the moment. --Black Flamingo 23:42, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

The Wire[edit | edit source]

Thanks for the review! Yeah, you're basically spot-on about the Baltimore criticism, I did primarily start to use that as a crutch because I ran out of city metaphors. I'll certainly try to think of something to phase them out, though. I might not change much about that first instance you cite, since it serves as a decent synopsis of the show. The rest of the section could definitely be changed to stand on its own, though. It'll just require... effort. *shudder*

Also, to defend a few of your other criticisms: I'm keeping the part about Doctor Wire, since one of the show's biggest followings is actually in the academic world. There have been literally hundreds of college courses taught about it, so a Doctor Wire isn't too far from being an actuality. As for the Bible section, I got a little heavy on the show-specific references in there, so I understand how it might not have gone over so well. Each point on the constitution is one of the show's major themes, but I suppose I can see if I can try to city-fy that a bit if you think it'd work better. But I'm not trying to draft a Town Code, here. I'm trying to write comedy, damnit!

Otherwise, all spot on. Thanksabunch! --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFUJewriken.GIFCK Oldmanonly.jpg 02:31, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I think that all makes sense. The Doctor Wire thing is a fine idea but it could probably be a little clearer. And I definitely think the city-fication will help. Let me know when you're done, I tend not to pay much attention to VFH these days. --Black Flamingo 20:05, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

...this is the greatest opportunity of your life. Summer extravaganza tournament. Teams of 2 or 3 users. Lasts month of August. Tournament wont be the same without you. Don't be an outcaste. CHECK IT OUT. --ShabiDOO 19:13, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Hey bro, do you plan on taking part in this tournament? If you want, you, Oliphaunte and me could be a great team! I'm already in with Oliphaunte (The Frozen Mammoths - fitting name) Let me know! Talk Mattsnow 19:40, July 14, 2011 (UTC)
I have no idea what it is but if you and Oliphaunte are involved then yeah I'd love to. --Black Flamingo 19:57, July 14, 2011 (UTC)

Many subjects and a request[edit | edit source]

An Uncy admin casually banning vandal IPs. Just another day on the job! (Accept this gif as a reward for my annoying requests)

It seems you were not fast enough to fill the void for the tournament, as Magic Man joined. If you want to form a team with Oliphaunte, feel free to ask him to! There are some spaces left and I am happy to see a lot of people joined, since it was announced a couple of days ago and slots are filling rather fast, with the contest starting August 1st.

Also, I read the great Pee we got for our boyfriend article and it's gonna be hard work to harmonize our writing, but I'm up to the task since I'm on workstop for 2 weeks. (I broke my jaw in a nasty cycling spill).

In conclusion, I know you are a master Pee Reviewer and I would like to know what you think of my review here Talk:Zombie Americans. No need for a 1000 word review of a Review lol, I just wanna know: do you think that helped the guy? Was I too harsh in my scoring? Too nice? I'll never ask for such a thing again, I don't want to consume your time for nothing. BTW, do you sometimes go on IRC? Cheers my friend! Talk Mattsnow 18:37, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Aw shit, I would have joined but I had no idea what you were talking about. I should check the forums more.
The boyfriend review is a good one, and I think I agree with every point Oli makes, which is a shame because I hate hard work.
Thirdly, your review is great. It's kind but also doesn't hold back, and the main thing is that you make suggestions rather than just saying what's wrong, which a lot of people never really learn to do. You're also good at explaining why something doesn't work, which can be tough.
Lastly, yes, I do go on IRC occasionally, I think I've only been on about four times in the two years I've been here. That way the userbase sees it as more of a treat when I do. Chiefjustice looks forward to it more than Chanukah. --Black Flamingo 19:15, July 15, 2011 (UTC)
If I had to review your last line, I'd say: undecipherable! What does the userbase sees as a treat? Are you an admin? Also, I don't get your Chiefjustice assertion and I feel the readers don't either </review> LOL Talk Mattsnow 19:48, July 15, 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the review! However if I could just defend a few points:
One - you don't get it. Read it again.
Two - you don't get it. I'm submitting for a second review.
Seriously though, what doesn't make sense? The userbase see it as a rare treat when I go on IRC. It's all there in black and blue. --Black Flamingo 20:07, July 15, 2011 (UTC)
Godammit, I confused "treat" with "threat". That's why I always keep a French-English dictonary when I write LOL. Mais es-tu un administrateur? Je crois que la liste des administrateurs n'est pas à jour car Madmax en est un et il n'y figure pas. Tu ne comprends pas mon ami lol...

I'm kind of stuck on it too, but was hoping you might be able to tweak it further. If you think it's good enough then yeah, nom away. I'll vote for. As for the contest thing; sure, I'll join. --Black Flamingo 14:08, July 20, 2011 (UTC)
Joe accepted and we can have a 4th member, you can join! Go on the forum and sign! It's gonna be a cool tournament! I'm going to wait a bit to nom Boyfriend, in case I think of something. Talk Mattsnow 02:10, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

...Feel free to take that half-point for it VFH. It's starting to smell anyways. And you did more than enough in my opinion to help get the article into its position that it is in now, trust me.

Fresh as a daisy[edit | edit source]

I come out of a 4 day hiatus and I reflected on Mammoths. They should exist! Somebody put mini-golf on VFH, sparing us the whole Pee process (and unclogging Pee), and I credited the whole team, so 0.5 feature thingie to all team members if it makes it (I am so sure it will). We're a team until the end! Talk Mattsnow 16:33, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not comfortable taking credit for that given that my sole edit was fixing a typo. Thanks anyway though, you've got my vote. --Black Flamingo 20:52, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
The way I see it, we are a team for that competition. But that's just the guy I am! BTW, I hope it is going ok in your area, here it is just wind and rain. Let's share that credit, I would hope to get everybody to agree with it! Cheers!Talk Mattsnow 21:23, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
No thanks. If everyone else wants credit for Horseshoes and Sun, they can have it, but this is the way I prefer to do things. It's nice that you offered though, rather than just saying no. Also I live in England, we don't have adverse weather here (although being on the West coast means I'll catch a bit of Irene's leftover wind and rain). --Black Flamingo 21:29, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
That is ok if you see it that way, then I claim 0.5 on Mini-golf and 1 on HowTo:Train to look your best this summer, although I feel this is ridiculous. I don't care about such petty numbers, since we all shared our contribs in the competition. And I don't like the idea to evaluate the contributions of each member. It would be easier to do as I said but I respect your opinion, since you are a Flamingo and all lol. I mean, I contributed some to your articles, how can it be quantified? It would be a shame that an union of persons which formed a team would come out with great articles, and yet divided. My opinion. Talk Mattsnow 21:47, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
No, what I'm trying to say is that anyone can have the 0.5 credit if they want, but I don't. Yeah, I'm an awkward son of a dick, I know. --Black Flamingo 21:55, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
I am happy you accept it as I see it: One team, one team on VFH. I'll edit that on your personal Hall of Shame and force it down your throat without regrets LOL Talk Mattsnow 22:02, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
No!! I'll quit the site forever and replace all your pages with pictures of me having sex with your family (he'll do it, he's crazy). --Black Flamingo 22:10, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

Hi! *kiss kiss* Love you, dahling![edit | edit source]

I read your article Sun, and I think it deserves a unanimous VFH. (If it doesn't get it, I will consider leaving Uncyclopedia in protest.)

I was wondering though...would it be OK if I went through it and emended the grammar slightly? I mean, just dropping a few verbs (such as "is" and "are") here and there, and changing some pronouns? I think it would sound more consistently caveman-like if I did.

Let me know. Cheers! ⇒»Biz E.B. Ver Icons-flag-us.png (gabble) 23:38, September 1, 2011 (UTC)

I am in search of a mentor - but not just any mentor - I need an experienced practitioner of the art of bullshit, someone who is so experienced in the ways of Unencyclopedia that they can guide me through this labyrinth of "in" jokes, subtle innuendo and teach me the lexicon of accepted language which one must know to be a successful writer. I need someone who can do this with an iron rod (and a softer, fleshier rod, for when I do something right). I need you, Black Flamingo, only you will do.

I perused over your note and although you asked for a samurai, I assumed that may have been seven years ago and decided to somewhat update the title of the position, therefore if I am accepted I shall henceforth be known as a padawan. At least then I can pretend I'm going to get a lightsaber at the end - and they are swishy and flashy and have you seen what they can do to a man? Anyone fucks me or vandalizes one of my articles and swish, I'll cut their jaunty fucking legs off. But I digress. Ah yes, accept me Black Flamingo, as your padawan, and you shall not regret it. You are Mufasa, the wise old Lion, protecting his kin - watching over them and making sure that his land, the bountiful planes and forest left under his dominion by his father and fore fathers, are not tainted by the evil squall of untalented and decidedly boring writers, rising up from the east. Likewise, I am Simba, the sprightly youth, who in my ill-founded wisdom believes I can conquer the world, unbeknown to me is that I need the teachings of my father, I need the wisdom of the father Lion to unlock my full potential.

I could go on with that metaphor, I really could, and as you can tell I do sometimes get carried away. But I would love to hear your reply and hope to be taken under your strong, furry mane, as the newest member of your pride. – Preceding unsigned comment added by Iwritewhatiwant (talk • contribs)

Lol I like your style, Writey. Hey you already got a nickname, cool! I'd be glad to adopt you. You'll be sleeping in between me and Mrs Flamingo though. Is that ok? She has night terrors, nice boobs though. Lesson one; new messages go at the bottom of pages, not the top. Anything else you need? --Black Flamingo 22:12, September 2, 2011 (UTC)
Ah, I've found it! After three cups of tea, a puff on a splif or two and five minutes of listening to the philomathic teachings of Richard Dawkins the answer swarmed upon me like a black man to a newly opened KFC. I apologise for what can only be considered a "noob" error and after reading about what tumultuous times these are for the noobs of the Internet I feel like I should go into hiding to prevent any attempts on my life, or at least change my IP. I'm over the moon that you would be glad to adopt me and cannot wait to have to pin your wife down in the middle of the night to prevent her hurting you, I, or throwing herself out the window. Although nice breasts are always a plus, I rate mental stability as just an important trait in a spouse. Well, I wondering exactly what being "mentored" entails. I think you should at the very least pass down some of the knowledge and wit you no doubt possess to the younger generation (me) and should also take me through some of the rookie errors that most people make, so I can avoid looking like a complete noob and have the entire Unencyclopedia community "rofl'ing" and "lmfao'ing" at me. Other than that, what does a mentorship usually involve? I love to learn, and am hoping that this site can be an outlet for all the antipathy built up against the world by the snobs and suspiciously neat classmates who attend the same Law lectures as I do at Cambridge.
~Writey
Mentoring... hmm... basically, you become a popular, successful editor and I get credit because I showed you how to sign your posts (four tildes, like this at the end of your comment: ~~~~ or hit the signature button at the top of the edit box) I think that's pretty much it. But seriously if there's anything you'd like to try let me know and I can assist. Some people write articles, some people do site maintenance. Some don't really contribute anything, and those people are the luckiest of all. Which would you like to do first? Uncyclopedia is your mollusc. --Black Flamingo 00:07, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

I would definately like to write articles, I feel a base compulsion to share my god given wit with the world. There is nothing worse than somebody who sits on their ass playing Deus Ex all day and wondering why the Chinese people look exactly like the ones who are supposedly from Detroit and are only distinguished by a slight nuance in their accent; nor do you get any more pathetic than playing Grand Theft Auto in 8 hour stints and going out of your way to kill as many innocent people as possible. FEEL MY FRONT BUMPER YOU ASSHOLE, YOU WERE TAKING A TRIP TO THE CORNER SHOP EH?? TAKE A TRIP TO THE BURNS DEPARTMENT BITCH *boom boom boom*. Woah, I'm sorry, I went a little far then, I kinda went through the looking glass and into my own anger, I have to stop that. Anyway, I want to write articles, I want to make funnis and I want to known as the best editor to ever grace the pages of Unencyclopedia. Of course, as my mentor, you deserve at least a quarter of all the glory I accumulate through my glorious exploits in the world of satirical writing, and as such a large benefactor to my ascendancy through the ranks of Unencyclopedia editors, from a mere peon, to the mightiest and most respected of them all I believe you shall get exactly what you deserve. So my friend, tell me how I begin my journey to greatness, how does one begin to write articles? I wrote the introduction to an article about Russell Brand actually, which you may wish to comment on, but other than that, TEACH ME MENTOR, TEACH ME THE WAYS OF THE FORCE.

--Iwritewhatiwant 00:21, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

Herro, I have qrestions, if you answer them I give you good browjob[edit | edit source]

Herro. First question: When I write an article does anyone actually see it? Or does it just descend into a black abyss of nothingness, never to be seen again except by an incredibly bored university student who has just Google'd the best way to import cheap steroids into the country and has somehow found his way to Uncyclopedia and to my article.

Second. How do I add pictures? And how to generally spice up an articles funkiness so everyone will be shocked and awed by my technological prowess and consider me a valuable member of the community.

Thanks mentor. The blowjob was a joke btw. You sick perv.

Felicitations

It is apparently de rigueur to spam a user's talk page with templates, if that user has voted for your article on VFH, or has other-services render'd. As you have apparently done something of this sort, here is your reward: a plain, black box with white lettering, thanking you in a generic fashion for what you have done.

P.S. Yes, your suspicions are correct, this template is utterly unoriginal.

Russell who?[edit | edit source]

No worries man, would be great to get another pair of eyes on it. I'm actually really enjoying this site, I have no idea how I haven't found this before actually - no more shall my internet fury be directed at girls on Facebook who write "soz guys cant text atm, phone broken xoxoxoxo - Sent from my mobile BlackBerry® Curve™ 8300" that really happened, and I really broke my keyboard. But thank goodness I now have an outlet! The name Writey also has a certain ring to it I find, and it's stuck. Although a pseudo-name generator suggested that my new handle be "Ronny Loverich", I think Writey has a certain ring to it, and also has the added benefit of not sounding like a name you'd expect to find on the sex offenders register. So thanks for the all the help. Writey out. --Writey 20:41, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

I met a man the other day whose name was Richard Grewcock. No word of a lie. See you 'round, Writey. --Black Flamingo 20:45, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

Corpsesarian[edit | edit source]

Thanks for your comment, I'll look into it (with a bioscope and a shovel). Haven't been on in a week, so I have a couple of hours now. Good to drop by here for a look around. Look, over there! A goose jumping thru a hoop! The sights and sounds amaze. Aleister 17:30 15-9-'11

Is Mrs. Flamingo keeping you busy?[edit | edit source]

Sorry to keep bothering you! Hope you don't mind, but if your not too busy pleasing Mrs. Flamingo or saving helpless kittens stuck up trees then some informal feedback on Russell Brand would be appreciated, I want to gather as much advice/feedback as I can from it before I start writing my next article. In return you'll get my most sought after prize, the fuzzy feeling that you did a good thing; then you can spend the rest of the day sauntering about looking down on all the people who pass you by. --Writey 16:46, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Mrs Flamingo keeps me very busy, yeah... it takes a lot of effort to get her to give it up. Sometimes I plead for days. Pity sex is the best though, it's worth every bruise. Anyway, your article is really good. I would not expect something so well written from a dirty noob such as yourself. I would recommend you trim some of the more random bits: the canned quotes, the references to kitten huffing and That Guy. The narration is confusing too, sometimes it's encyclopaedic then there's the alien part and occasionally it sounds like the narrator is infatuated with Brand. This might be better if it was more consistent, less scattergun. Your writing style is very confident so I know you can do it! A pee review will help; one of us will get around to that soon I swear. Anything else? (except that) --Black Flamingo 21:51, September 18, 2011 (UTC)
Yea, the intro with the canned quotes/ random references may have been written when I was slightly intoxicated. Well fair enough, do you suggest it is all done in an encyclopaedic fashion? I admit that I did kinda let my imagination free on the alien part, but once I thought of the name "Gagginon" I just had to include it. But you are right about the homosexual subtext, people have actually commented on me going a little overboard with that before. I'm not gay, honest! I like women. Ask me some female pornstars, I can name dozens! God, now it just sounds like I'm overcompensating. But anyway, yes, I'm waiting for a Pee Review as it is; but to give me a vague idea of where it is, what would you rate it /10? (0 being rubbish 10 being certain feature). --Writey 22:07, September 18, 2011 (UTC)
I dunno.. about a 7 or something. I don't pay much attention to the numbers to be honest. I tend to put them a little higher than I really think anyway because otherwise it can be quite hurtful to new - and old - writers. If it's still there this weekend and I'm not too busy with PLS I'll try to get the review. --Black Flamingo 16:12, September 20, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for helping out. Also where's my sex, huh? I've been good to you this last few years, surely it's worth a quick tumble. --ChiefjusticeGameBoy 08:00, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Hello from some dark hole somewhere on earth[edit | edit source]

Afternoon professor. It seems you are the only one left who I can talk to without fear of turning me over to the government. Mattsnow and Shabidoo joined the Sandanistas and left me behind, Candid Toaster fell to the Spanish nationalists during our last skirmish, Chief is apparently Big Brother, and Lyrithya has wandered off somewhere, leading me to assume she is a communist. That leaves just me, a will to live, and a half-eaten pancake in a hole somewhere hiding from the fascists (The pancake, not me. I'm hiding from Frosty in a ditch).

So I ask you, are you willing to join me in a collab for PLS, or will you leave me and Frank, the half-eaten pancake, to our impending capture?

Signed,

--Sir Oliphaunte (განხილვა)  Georgia-flag-on-soccer-ball-vector.jpg 16:05, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

xoxoxo (From the pancake of course. He's very scared)

I'm afraid I've already begun work on something with Lyrithya. Sorry! However our combined unreliability may mean I come crawling back to you when it all goes awry. Thanks for asking though. --Black Flamingo 13:35, September 22, 2011 (UTC)

Frat Rat[edit | edit source]

Goodintog, Oktoverflesh. Aye. I'm "here" for a few hours, once a week or so it seems. What's your thing, aye? I think you may be holding up the frat, which is cool. I've edited "Corpsearian" pretty well, which is cool (it's almost made feature, which is weird). Good luck on the poo thing, if I were here I'd have entered, but alass (that was huffed? Wha?). Aleister 16:19 21-9-'11

Yeah, me and Mattsnow wrote Boyfriend, which ended up top somethingth article of the something. That was cool. I'll read Corpserian again soon, I'm not here myself much these days, I'm usually over there. --Black Flamingo 13:35, September 22, 2011 (UTC)

"Aussie Pink Floyd[edit | edit source]

I'd review this for you but I can't seem to summon any enthusiasm to do anything at the moment. First impressions were that it was a bit listy in places. I suppose I could do some sort of review if you like... but You'd probably get a more useful one somewhere else. Either way, it's a good idea.--Sog1970 18:10, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I've always found your reviews pretty helpful actually, so if you can find the time then urinate away. Nice to see you around here! --Black Flamingo 13:35, September 22, 2011 (UTC)
I'll try then - it may take a while though - i'm finding it hard to be bothered to log on at present - not sure why. --Sog1970 22:03, September 23, 2011 (UTC)
You're feeling inertia because you have conquered Uncyclopedia. You miss the thrill of the chase, man. --Black Flamingo 22:24, September 23, 2011 (UTC)
Sorry - forgot. Doesn't seem to have done you any harm, however. congrats.--Sog1970 20:31, October 9, 2011 (UTC)

Hey-ho![edit | edit source]

Do we all get 0.5 points for the horseshoe article? This one was a true work of collaboration! Furthermore, all 4 of our articles have made the frontpage! When we're gonna be old and gray, we're going to look back and say "What a team that was!" with great nostalgia! Talk Mattsnow 21:58, September 23, 2011 (UTC)

Nostalgia ain't what it used to be. Still, that's cool. Take any 0.5 points you want, I don't really remember who did what and who did who these days anyway. --Black Flamingo 22:24, September 23, 2011 (UTC)
Well an Oliphaunte started it, you did work on it, I then added the Iranian guy thing and you finalized it. You did most of the work, no doubt! I have the memory of an oliphaunte, which is 1000 times better than a regular pachyderm. Talk Mattsnow 23:17, September 23, 2011 (UTC)
Oh yeah, I remember now, I did twelve months rigorous horseshoeing to prepare. Is it featured yet? Have I passed Cajek? This will not do, I'll have to nom an old Cajek article right away. --Black Flamingo 23:38, September 23, 2011 (UTC)

Nice work. Your reputation knees you. Did you ever think of writing more? You seem to not write enough, and I'm concerned you may be slacking. By the way, "Corpsearian", which you want to vote for in your heart, has been further edited and I'll go back to it now and improve it even more. So if you have a tenth-of-a-minute later today, after I make it maximus funniest, have another look. I miss collabs with the frat. Where did all the frat boys go????? Al 16:23 28-9-'11

I love the article Al, but the end still makes no sense (did you read my comment?) You treat corpsearians as if they're weird, then when you talk about vegetarians you act like they're the weird ones, and corspearians are normal. Were the frat boys ever really here? I just remember it being you and I. --Black Flamingo 19:26, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
Also, you're write, I don't right enough. Although I have entered 3 categories in the PLS, I probably won't have much success (Doc Strange has also entered!) --Black Flamingo 19:35, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

I pondered by myself aloud[edit | edit source]

Last night I entered the Poo Lit Suprise.
My original early night took a dive,
I wrote and I wrote
Till my knuckle bones croaked,
And finished the article on time.

But bitter sweet site,
Was it wrong to spend the night
Frantically typing away?
No competition I see in my deserted category,
Not even a hasty foray.
My effort seems wasted
My thirst is abated to write
And to write and to write.
I need the advice of an expert like you,
As your adoptee is it my right.

Flamingo I ask little of you,
But to mentor me in all that is just,
But on this occasion I'll show my equation,
Whilst hiding my homosexual lust.
My question is this, with no hint of a twist,
With nobody to contest or to best
The article I wrote,
Should I sit smugly and gloat,
Or ask to be judged with the rest?

--Writey 18:14, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

Just like masturbating,
Competitions are frustrating,
When no one else joins in.
You poured out your heart,
(And other body parts)
But the aim should not be to win.
Enjoy the success,
Don't let yourself stress,
The main thing is that the article made me grin.
April is the cruellest month, motherfuckerrrrrr!
Seriously though it's a good article. Thinking back to the quality of the noob articles we got last year it may well have won anyway even if other noobs had entered. Just wait for the competition to stagger to a close, work on the article a little more, and then see where it takes you. --Black Flamingo 23:51, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

thanks and no thanks[edit | edit source]

Thank-you for voting for my Indiana J article, and curse you for beating me in the PLS. Anyway, I'm up for a collaboration on an article, most likely Processed food or Holiday jobs. The first idea is essentially a satire on actual processes to make food, etc. kind of like your Acreblah message article. The second I haven't formulated yet, but it is way open to ideas. Message if you're up for one or any other idea.--Nikau 04:16, October 21, 2011 (UTC)

Hey Nikau, thanks for the thanks and well done on the Indiana article. Yeah man (woman?) I would love to do a collab with you. The processed food one sounds best, but who knows, the other might be good too. I'm pretty busy at the mo so I'd recommend you start writing down what you have, if anything, and I'll take a look and see what I can do with it when I get a chance. I love collab; you get a better article with half the effort! --Black Flamingo 11:59, October 21, 2011 (UTC)
Cool. I think the processed foods idea lends itself to a Cajekish format, possibily a flow chart like style with a few large pictures of the machines, with captions taking the piss out of the pictures. Nothing fancy in the formatting, it won't work on my phone and I'd guess that is how a lot of people edit nowadays. Before we start I'd just like to get on the same page, so should we try for an encyclopedic style in the actual prose, I haven't read many articles where a specific narrator has made anything funnier unless it is very clear like Dragon Warrior. --Nikau 12:15, October 21, 2011 (UTC)
I agree that if we're making up absurd lies we probably should go for the encyclopaedic style. So it's going to be a step-by-step kind of thing about how food is processed? --Black Flamingo 12:35, October 21, 2011 (UTC)
Kinda, we should at least make it seem as though the base food is unimportant and the additives etc. are great. There is some truth as they do preserve stuff. I think digging up some cheesy or simply strange pictures of factory shit, visiting politicians, would be a decent start: to be honest, that is how I start reading articles, read the intro and check the pictures and captions next. I don't have photoshop right now, but a diagram of a factory with dumb descriptions could fit at the end.--Nikau 13:24, October 21, 2011 (UTC)
Sounds good, let's do it. I will go and read about processed food on Wikipedia right away. I might eat a pack of sliced ham in preparation too. Yum. --Black Flamingo 14:51, October 21, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks socky. No...the problem is is that there are links to Democracy is not permanent...so there is a way to change those links? Or do I have to change them all myself? I really don't mind doing them myself of course...just wanted to be sure there is no automatic way to do it. Cheeers --ShabiDOO 17:15, October 22, 2011 (UTC)
There's no automatic way the actual links get changed when you move a page. But it normally creates a redirect that directs you to the new title, so when someone presses one of the original links, they'll be redirected to the new title. However, moving a page multiple times can lead to double redirects, which should be avoided. Of course, if an old title differs significantly from a new one, it's best to change the link itself to the new title so as to avoid any confusion.

Grammar[edit | edit source]

Thanks for the additions on the article, it's great to see the difference between what was there and what is good, it'll help me learn good prose. I improved a lot in English since coming here but I still have a long way to go it seems. Rest assured that the prose problems are not there by lack of working on my articles: I read and reread them and tweak them so much that I can almost recite them! Always feel free to rework the prose if you see that it sucks badly. Happy Halloween! Talk Mattsnow 16:03, October 31, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, I just saw your message on VFH. Go ahead, it'll help me to see the difference! Sorry for the boring previous message, I fell asleep on my PC chair yesterday, woke up on it this morning (well, this noon rather) and the first thing I did was write this message. LOL Talk Mattsnow 01:03, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
I think I'm basically done now but I'll read it again later today when I'm less familiar with it. Then I'm sure a for vote will be in order. --Black Flamingo 14:27, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
Also in future you may want to avoid present-tense. It's a bastard to make funny. --Black Flamingo 15:53, November 1, 2011 (UTC)
That's a nice pointer there, I knew while I was writing the article that something was different, and although I had great fun writing it, it felt like an entertaining, feel good kind of read rather than an all-out lol. I didn't realise at all that the tense was the reason for that but now that you say... Watch out for candies with needles and chainsaws in them this morning.
