UnSignpost - 1 March 2012[edit | edit source]
The Newspaper That Won't Tell Everyone That You Wet the Bed! Oops...
March 1, 2012 • Issue 160 • You are all about to die.
Nothing.
So I got up this morning, ate some breakfast and watched some television, ya know, just normal morning stuff. Then I decided it was time for me to check Uncyclopedia, as I do every day. So I walk over to my computer, turn on the screen and bring up Safari. I go to Uncyclopedia, log in and what do I see? Oh, I'll tell you what I saw. This thing that I saw was so terrible, I almost died. What I saw was... NOTHING. C'mon, guys, can't you do anything? Start a competition, a new exciting forum, even drama! Anything! I mean, I can't be expected to entertain myself, can I? And to any of you smart-asses out there who tell me that nothing is something in and of itself, shut up and go fall in a hole full of pointy objects; you know what that would be helping by telling me that? Take a guess. News? For those with eyes in their brains and mugs in their ale, it should be clear that all manner of very important things have been occurring in the news. Or is this the news? Well, you get the idea. Apparently Uncyclopedians, Shabidoo in particular, think there is something wrong with the site. While this is indoubti-bi-tubby the case, a more pressing concern we must bring up is this: has there ever been anything right with the site? Today the scare involves NotM, a highly prestigious award won by all the people who aren't here right now, and how it creates problems in regards to new editor retention, despite the minor issue that we would have to have new editors in the first place in order to retain any of them. Another scare involves the complete lack of sufficient delete votes on VFD, along with the fact that Sycamore wants to decrease the maximum number of active votes there to 14 when 15 would in fact be a much more round number, and to decrease the score required to delete things from 5 to 4, when 5 is also a much more round number. We suspect Sycamore just has something against round numbers, probably due to some childhood trauma or something, unless it turns out that these are the wrong notes and it was someone else who wanted to do all that. Everything's so blurry. In other news, Wikia broke the site again, our illustrious admins keep forgetting to update the feature queue, VFP is lacking an appropriate number of votes, containing only the nominations of three images by Zombiebaron, who demands that more people vote for them because pi is awesome, and Uncyclopedia needs more sharons. And I really need to lie down. Profit! Profit! A word that has dogged Uncyclopedia, most especially those pages doomed to huffing, for years. A concept that we, as a community, have overlooked in our time, and need to bring the focus back to. A user has recently pointed out that as a community, we are forgetting this one fundamental principle. Our growth - nay, our very survival - depends on this principle. We need to become part of the corporate machine to further our plans of world domination. To do this, we may need to advertise, and to pay for quality submissions. Now many of you may be afraid of this. Change can be frightening, and after all, our last venture into the world of capitalism has left us falling short of the desired funds to The point is, ladies and gentleman, that profit, for lack of a better word, is good. Profit is right, profit works. Profit clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Profit, in all of its forms; profit for life, for money, for love, knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind. And profit, you mark my words, will not only save Uncyclopedia, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA. Thank you very much. Editor's note: This is most certainly not a veiled attempt by the resident money launderers to give them something to launder. The people want this. They already have a number of ideas relating to the promotion and growth of the site, and want your feedback so they can have feedback! Yes! |

I CANNOT DO IT😢[edit | edit source]
YOU TOLD ME I CAN ADD PICS MYSELF BUT I CAN'T, I AM USING AN IPAD😢😢😢😢😢😢
Harper[edit | edit source]
[[File:Angry My dearest Matt, how are you my dear boy?
I saw that someone made a new Stephen Harper article. It has a few good ideas, though its poorly edited in my humble opinion and will certainly be deleted soon. I tried to edit it away with the ideas the user gave, but he reverted them. I put it here as I saw that Zombie moved the old page to your user space. Unless a miracle happens and this nOOb listens to my message, Im going to keep editing this until the article gets delete and move it to the mainspace afterwards.
In any case, the text is here. I hope you don't mind if I add a little to it on your user space, and if you like...we could colab on it. What do you saw ole buddy? COLABORAMA!?!?! --ShabiDOO 00:31, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
- If the right honorable Mr. Harper has the two of you working him over, it's his lucky day! And did you guys know that the Goldstein News Recording award is under attack on VFD? Seriously. Aleister 00:38 3-3-'12
- Yes, that's cool shab, let's see how it plays out, but I am warning you, I plan on "destroying" him in a funny way, of course! :P Mattsnow 23:20, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
Hey Matt[edit | edit source]
An idea. A one month Goldstein contest of creative news readings (some of those UnNews stories present really good acting opportunities!). I don't have sound or video access on my computer, so I can't judge the contest. If you like the idea, please set it up, pick the judges, everything. I'll help with promoting it. And if that doesn't work out then I'd vote to dump the thing or sell it at a garage sale. Ideas? Aleister 19:00 4-3-'12
- I myself, don't even have a mic, and I'm not sure I want to be responsible for this... Sorry for being a party crasher! The last UnNews that had sound must have been a while ago... Mattsnow 19:16, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
- No, that's fine, just an idea for UnNews. SPIKE used to do them several times a month, and some of his were pretty good, yet for acting I like Dexter's (and I think Iwillkillyou did some?). Anyway, where I'm coming from is that uncyclopedia will be around for lots of more years, and a few people are bound to come by who just love to record and act. Maybe not, but nobody is saying they know that for a fact, which I'd see in my personal universe of gobscoppers as the only way to ditch it for now. You know, neither of us having mikes could be the best way to run the contest. I just mentioned it to you because you like unnews. Should be multiple people in charge of it, probably. I see it as work, too, but it could be set for April and leave people most of the month to decide or start recordings early, and with that lead time it doesn't sound like work. (I'm only rambling because you said "not sure" and not "no". And said "party crasher" insead of I don't know what, which gives an unconscious slip that this could be fun. Aleister 19:27 4-3-'12
- What would I have to do? Judge the acting or the overall thing? Mattsnow 19:49, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
- Nobody but the judges really has to do anything. You or I can't judge, since I have no sound and, as the UnOfficial UnNews czar, you shouldn't judge anyway. Maybe two categories? Reading/acting your own UnNews and reading/acting someone elses anywhere from 2005 to the present day. I know which one I'd do if I had a mic (wonder if it's already recorded). Aleister 20:20 4-3-'12
- Just announce the competition, set up very simply rules, give a deadline and get only one or two people to judge. You don't even have to brand it or anything either. Short and simple and allow users to submit more than one entry. It should be sucessful! --ShabiDOO 20:56, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
- Whoa! More than one entry! Genius. Aleister 21:02 4-3-'12

Sisyphus (talk) 20:58, March 4, 2012 (UTC)Thanks for the message. I'll try filling out Boko Haram a bit more and re-launching..see if it gets torpedoed again.
- I dunno about organizing the competition guys... I'm not sure I have the will to do it, plus I'm not too sure it'll be popular... I'm not even writing much recently, but if you want to organize it, I'll sure help! Call it lack of confidence on my part lol. Mattsnow 22:22, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
- I mean, OK, I'm all for it, but could we be 2 persons to organize it? That'd be cool. Mattsnow 23:01, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
- Not quite sure you can just "announce" a contest an suddenly there it is. I think if we have to introduce something as constructive as Conservation Week with a proposal and a vote, then I reckon this untested deal would have to go through a similar process. --
- There is no policy about announcing competitions and up until now no one telling people which competition is better or more important than others and when or when not to do it. If its the same to you Ali, just make an informal friendly competition on your user page and invite a few people to come an do it. Pick a deadline and voila, for sure you'll get some people coming to do it and it will help the site for sure to have more live news. --ShabiDOO 23:55, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
- Jeez, all I thought of is that there is a difference of opinion about recording UnNews segments, so let's see if a couple of people want to record them. TKF and anyone else who'd like to should be judges if they don't want to record. If Dexter ever comes back (where'd he go?) he may do a couple. Fuck, I'd love to hear Maniac1075 do one. There used to be lots of them, not too long ago, and the reason I suggested it to Matt is because he's more or less run UnNews for awhile and this is part of UnNews. I could put up a page, and have the "competition" in April, so that gives everyone time to organize a simple contest. I don't even know how to make a tape, and then upload it somewhere, so we could have simple instructions on the page. It's only March 5th, so there's a good week or two to come back to this. And like I said, maybe it will work and maybe not. If anyone starts recording again it's actually thanks to TFK for noticing that we've gone dormant on UnNews recordings and calling everyone on it. Aleister 1:03 5-3-'12
- I don't know either how to make a tape, that's why I was skeptical the contest would work :D. But feel free to start one, I'll help out, like I did on Happy Monkey. And what do you mean, I "more or less" manage UnNews"? I'm the UnNews equivalent of Kim Il-sung! I know everything and work for 27 hours a day on it! How dare you! Soldiers, bring Al here to room 101. Mattsnow 01:17, Malrch 5, 2012 (UTC)
- All hail the great leader. LEADER! Tell us how we should feel today, and tell us if what has happened today is good or not. You are the early shed of light that pierces through the morning windows and the evening sand that traps our eyes and helps us dream, to dream about the great leader you are. HAIL HAIL HAIL Great leader Mattsnow! May our beloved UnNews leader be leader for alltime and allthings. --ShabiDOO 01:34, March 5, 2012 (UTC)

- Actually, TKF is half correct. We can't just announce an official competition. Anyone can create an unofficial or user-run competition though. This means it would have to be based within user space, or through village dump. Having said all that, as a once off trial to bring recording UnNews audio again, I'd suggest putting the proposal in Village Dump. I'd like to see as many people promoting this idea as possible. I've also recently starting watching the Onion News videos. We're limited to ogg format for videos hosted on site, but I'd love to build up to doing similar as well. I can see this being another avenue in order to bring people to the site - especially the illetterite ones. Pup 11:57 06 Mar '12
- Puppy ... a couple things. First, I don't think Matt wants anything to do with this competition. Second ... as the conservation week thing is already voted on (and unanimously positive so far) it would be best to start up a user based informal competition on a user space until after the two planned competitions. If you would agree to do it on your user space...I'd gladly help you with it. --ShabiDOO 00:06, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
- Seriously, I'd like to help! It's just I've never organized a comp, so being 2 to organize it would be cool! :) Mattsnow 00:09, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
- So...Matt or Puppy...would you organize it on your userspace? Would you like help with administering it or judging? --ShabiDOO 01:22, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
- Well, that's why I brought it to Matt, because he's the unannounced UnNews czar. The audio is part of UnNews, so if UnNews people agree to a contest I would think it'd be fine, and what I had in mind was for TKF and Skullthumper and others who question the viability of this award to help and even to judge the contest. Did you see my link below, HowTo:Do Fish Impressions (damn, no no, not that one, this one: HowTo:Do An UnNews Audio} which should help users actually learn how to do one of the damn things. That should maybe actually be a link on UnNews somewhere, and for sure on the award page. The basic facts of "how to do it" seem important to the process. I like the fish impressions better. Aleister 1:33 7-3-'12

- I'm going to start throwing something together at User:PuppyOnTheRadio/UnNews comp as a start. Pup 01:58 07 Mar '12
- Awsome puppy! All hail the new great leader. --ShabiDOO 02:05, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
- It's cool. Does anyone know where we're likely to have a fortnight period free for competition entries? Pup 02:07 07 Mar '12
- I suppose there's nothing going on in late April or early may. That being said...you could also just pick a date in the future...and let people start submitting entires right away up until the end date instead of a formal 2 week thing...thus encouraging lots of entries. What do you think?
- Hail Puppy, and happy birthday!!!! How about April sometime, or the whole month. That way it would overlap with the awarding of the Goldstein award which is what the thing is about anyway. If people can enter as many times as they want, and if there are at least two categories, things could get hot fast. Aleister 2:21 7-3-'12
- This page makes it much clearer, as I wasn't so sure what the comp would be about. What could I do to help out? Mattsnow 02:37, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
- How about two audio awards (an audio of your own page, and an audio of any other UnNews page from 2005 until the present date) with unlimited entries. The original idea was to encourage lots of audios, so people would get used to making them. And how about two weeks to write/record instead of one week? Aleister 2:45 7-3-'12
- A second audio award makes sense. Unlimited entries makes it harder to judge though, which is why I wanted to limit it to one entry per. As for the encouragement - I'd rather see people say to themselves Yeah, I can do this and choose to continue doing it. It's a trial competition though. Depending on how it goes we may be able to tweak it for any follow ups. Pup 02:54 07 Mar '12

- The Pea Buddy Awards are born. I've copied this conversation over to the talkpage there, and added this as an unofficial user-run award. I'll do a bit more magic to this over the next couple of weeks. Any feedback it would be better to give me on this talk page. Pup 06:01 07 Mar '12
- Puppy, its true that having no limit to entires would make it harder to judge, but allowing maybe upto 5 entries in total per person will create the needed content, and also wont create a terrible task for the judges, as judging a recording is much easier than judging a written article, at least as I see it. --ShabiDOO 18:40, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
Golden Showers[edit | edit source]
Hi, Matt. I'm, Matt, too. Thanks for pissing on my Deal or no Deal. I've made some changes around as you suggested, and added a few things here and there and a bit over there, but left that other one alone but tweaked the one near it.

HowTo:Do An UnNews Audio or HowTo:Do a Barrel Roll, take your pick[edit | edit source]
I came across HowTo:Do An UnNews Audio totally by accident, so the gods of the innernest put things in our path again. I haven't read it though, maybe SPIKE could do an update (I don't even know who wrote it). And thanks, yes, we can all work on a contest and it shouldn't be much work for anyone, thanks. How about for April, so we have lots of time to semi-organize it. I see you and Maniac are hanging out. May God help you both. Aleister 17:24 6-3-'12
Sisyphus (talk) 19:55, March 6, 2012 (UTC)Re the Boko Haram article, I tried contacting zombiebaron but no action yet, and the other one (Lythyra?) didn't seem to be contactable - what if I just recreate the page? Would that be considered infra dig?
UnSignpost - 8 March 2012[edit | edit source]
The Newspaper that won't leave you the same way they did!
March 8th, 2012 • Issue 161 • The most recycled periodical on the internet!
Vote for Change
There have been rumblings on the wiki this week, and not just because someone in the UnSignpost office insists it is their human right to have three kebabs for breakfast. These are the rumblings of discontent, and they stem from the behaviour of several users on the Uncyclopedia IRC channel. Frosty was decent enough to create a forum in the Ministry of Love explaining his discontent with pretty much everything IRC. Those of you who are fans of long blocks of text with lots of unnecessary swearing will not be disappointed as Frosty delivers Uncyclopedia's first blockbuster of 2012. The crux of the issue is that the Uncyclopedia IRC channel is not unlike my back garden, dangerous to enter alone for fear that Olipro will burst from the undergrowth and verbally assault you before hiding in the shed. There appear to be several views on this issue, besides the obvious; the UnSignpost sat down with Socky to discuss how we could fabricate a quote from him this week and he didn't say "I propose that all who argue should be put to death". Determined not to be outdone when it comes to simmering discontent with our benighted wiki, Lyrithya weighed into the forum to say that she too was disgusted with the present situation and something should be done. It's both worrying and strangely comforting that you can always rely on her for this particular viewpoint. The rebuttal to all these dissenting views has been varied, mostly involving admitting that yes Olipro and Dr. Skullthumper are an acquired taste and that everyone should generally go back to the important task of Speaking of maintaining the wiki, it is with great pride and the greatest pleasure that we bring to you more reforms from the keyboard of Dr. Skullthumper, Uncyclopedia's lead innovator and blue sky thinker. He proposes that in order to make new users feel welcome we should abolish Noob of the Month. Don't look at us like that; it makes complete sense to me: new users plus no awards equals a better Uncyclopedia. That isn't strictly true, as PuppyOnTheRadio suggested that instead of having a system by which we award one user the award per month we stack the new users up and treat them as though they were articles on VFH. This will at least kill two noobs with one stone, as nothing proves quite so heartbreaking as having your first article stomped on and then thrown into the bin because it "Lacks cultural significance". You could then change to the VFN page and watch yourself be stomped on and then thrown into the bin because "His/her articles lack cultural significance". Users interested in this plan should report here and support Thrak Thrak the destroyer of Worlds: May his power endure eternally, praise be, praise be to use the name he uses in his welcome message. Oh and in case you had forgotten, Thekillerfroggy still wants to sell Uncyclopedia to the man, man. Our pessimistic thought for the week goes to Electrified mocha chinchilla, who urges you to look on the bright side by saying: "Uncyclopedia will die if we do not make a conscious effort to expand our presence on the internet, thereby reaching a wider audience and attracting more contributors". So to conclude:
Only you can prevent forest fires, is what we would be saying if it was time for forest fire week again. It's not. Instead it is almost time for another Conservation Week! Unfamiliar with Conservation Week? Want to learn more? Why not head on over to the page and do a spot of reading? Or don't; trust that our summary of the rules is gospel and just start writing. Basically you rewrite articles so that they are no longer suitable for one of Dr. Skullthumper's templates of doom. Having completed your rewrite you gain a point, and you want to have more points than everyone, especially HauntedUndies, who is the Team Rocket of Conservation Week. Honestly, it's true. You can enter the competition for the low low price of ten English pounds, which goes towards oiling the gears and cogs of Uncyclopedia. Your article should also contain at least two pictures of a Monkey, regardless of the subject matter. Well? What are you waiting for? HAH! False start; the competition isn't running just yet, and updates could come from anywhere, at literally any time. Check out the forum and await further instructions. |

He's pretending to be a southern boy with a new accent and all. And a dick. It's just so amazing that this guy looks to have the nomination (at least the odds and numbers favor him) while doing so many stupid and unclassy things. He's a walking satire. Maybe I'll write "UnNews:HowTo:Why?:Mitt Romney wrote an UnBook", but that would be wrong. Aleister 10:35 10-3-'12

Cyber-Bullying[edit | edit source]
The image was referring Justin Bieber as a "fag" and that was insulting him based on his sexuality, which is technically cyber-bullying. -- UserTalkContributions 02:49, March 15, 2012 (UTC)

Less to the point, in regards to IRC, do you remember the email you used? NickServ should have a command to reset the password (do /msg nickserv help for help listings). Hope that helps. ~ 04:05, 16 March 2012
- Yeah, just hop on IRC using any nick, and ping No_one_at_all (that's me). I'll help. ~ Fri, Mar 16 '12 7:38 (UTC)
- Mattsnow, to follow up: you need to get on irc.freenode.net and go to #freenode, then ask a staff member for a password reset. You'll get a password reset email at the address you used to register. There *is* a nickserv command, but a freenode staffer is the one who uses it. ~ Fri, Mar 16 '12 8:38 (UTC)
Pichacy[edit | edit source]
Gleep! That Pichachu guy isn't too bad, his unbook is kind of funny. And I don't like UnQuotable either! (seriously). Anyway, I look forward to reading your 1984 page, if anyone here can make it come alive in 2012 it's you. 1984 isn't your father's 1984 anymore, that one's so 2001. 1855! Al 12:09 (UTC)

Can I use a picture of a seal in an UnNews? I don't know if a seal can make news, I mean, have you ever heard of an individual seal stopping the presses? This concerns me. Greatly. Aleister 12:13 19-3 (UTC)
- Yes. And tigers. Nominally Humane! 12:25 19 Mar

In all stupidness, can you guys check out Bing Crosby and see if it croon-worthy. I'll finish it up soon, and then comes some polishing, but a quick look by you two, Matt and PuppyOnTheRadio, would be like winning the lottery and then finding out that the taxes have been taken care.

Flyingfeline[edit | edit source]
Flyingfeline, who crawled in for a few edits, did over 25 unnews audios during his time here. I left him a note on his talk page mentioning the upcoming contest.

which is 1984 on a different row of keys. Shhhhhhhhhh. I did some minor editing on your page, please go over each and every one (commas, mostly, and writing out the lower numbers - three instead of 3, I think not spelling them out starts later in the number game), things like that. 1984 is so 1983, and of course such things can never happen today.

The Pea Buddy Awards[edit | edit source]
Got your message; I think I'll be a judge. Is that okay if I be a judge? Matthlock 21:30, March 21, 2012 (UTC)
Somebody asked me...[edit | edit source]
... about Pee Buddy Rewrites category and maybe having the same restriction as on Old UnNews Audio (pre 2010). I think it was you. I remember reading the question and thinking about it, but can't find it now. Anyway, between 2010 and mid-late 2011 there were a lot of recordings done. Many of them by the Rev Zimulator, and many by SPIKE (who may or may not be from NJ). Usually they would pick on the "better quality" written articles. I chose to shy away from those for the purposes of recording, as doubling up on audio is probably not useful. The rewriting though is probably worthwhile, as there are a few of those that do need cleaning up to get them to standard. Of course this is just my thoughts on it (which is why I put that restriction in there in the first place). Also a rewrite can be done on an article that has a good concept no matter how old it is. This allows people to do a rewrite of newer articles, and record for a new article, or rewrite of an old one and a recording for it, or just a recording (which will probably mean a minor clean-up anyway) or a recording on a completely new article. Basically it allows for flexibility for the competitors built into a semi-rigid structure. That was the rationale behind it, and to be honest I'd actually prefer to leave it as is after consideration. Nominally Humane! 12:15 22 Mar

WOTHFU?[edit | edit source]
Here's that link I mentioned recently on those two senators and 911. I'm going to maybe do a page on ATS and link some of the good threads I've seen there. You may like some of gthe stuff once I expand it a bit. Thanks for putting my Sandra Weisenheimer page on main! That's a pic I had on my user page for probably over a year and never used in an article. There's a skeleton one like that too, I mean on my user page for a long time and I never used it. Can you guess the answer to the "contest pic" I've had on my user page forever? Nobody has ever even tried! Aleister *UTC*
- That's an hallucinating gif in the UnNews! 0.0 As for the pic, I'd say it's a tree that was torn and broke due to wind, decayed a little before somebody put some road salt on it. I wouldn't bet my life though lol. Maybe a weird, almost impossible rock formation? A very decaying arena from 4,000 BC? Now I'm curious, I want to know! I won't tell. Promise. Mattsnow 18:55, March 22, 2012 (UTC)
- BEEP wrong. Thanks for guessing though. A tree? Interesting, I'm going to look at it now. There are a couple really intersting threads on ATS right now, which finally gave me the idea to work up an article about them. Still best to look at the threads as a member, even if the account is only used for viewing, because of the damn ads. They even have those floating ads that bob up and down when you try to look over or beneath them. If I only had a jail big enough... Aleister 19:12 a very good year

- No UFO. I don't know what it is, and the tree explanation sounds right, I never thought of that one. But a hint: I wasn't talking about the object of the picture itself. So what is it? I've used it on one article myself. Al TGIF (UTC)

- Try once more and then I'll tell you. The caption is a hint. Once more, you can figure it out, and one more hint, the picture of the tree or rock or whatever itself means nothing to the answer. With those hints a lurker may beat you to the prize of nothing! Alek (UTC)
- An artistic depiction of the Big Bang? (since you link to 'history') I'm clueless lol. What is it?

No Idea How to Revert Edits[edit | edit source]
On the Kesha's drug article, this dude is messing up everything. Can you revert it back to your last edit? I kinda tried clicking 'undo' but it didn't work as I thought it would. J.D. Soufi 09:03, March 23, 2012 (UTC)
- I've changed it back, but it's not a revert per se. A revert will only go back one editors actions, so revert wasn't possible. (In fact, a revert would have changed your last edit.) Having said that, the IPs edits weren't terrible, and he had a relevant point relating to the grammar here. It may be an idea to get User:Ferric AlFerrous or User:Jonny appleseed to do a proof in this, as they both have talent at proofreading. Nominally Humane! 09:39 23 Mar
- Of course, his grammar is better than mine. But then again, my grammar is terrible and almost everyone has better grammar than me. I just wanted to revert the edits because he turned the article into some kind of a chemistry lesson. Yes, I know, it's totally fine to throw a couple of I'm-so-smart-I'll-make-you-snore jokes here and there, but just not in an article that's about Ke$ha. And drugs. J.D. Soufi 19:19, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
- JD, the best way to revert an article to a previous version is to look in the history, find the version you like best (for instance, this one by Mattsnow), click the "edit" tab on that version, and then just hit "save". Works better than rollbacking (if more than one vandal has had at it) or "undoing" (which only "undoes" a single revision -- pretty lame and pointless. I have no idea why "undo" even exists). It's also good to mention which version you reverted to in the edit summary. :) ~ Sun, Mar 25 '12 19:57 (UTC)
- I get it now, thanks for the help Beever. That is easier. J.D. Soufi 06:53, March 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Guys... if you prefer your humour that's fine. But why don't you work your jokes back into it from the current version rather than just revert edits? It will probably be funnier that way.
- Actually, you didn't make a lot of jokes about chemistry and compounds and all that snore-generating equations this time around. I like this edit. :D Thanks for fixing my grammar mistakes. If you did fix them, anyway. J.D. Soufi 19:56, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

While talking to a friend this afternoon I realized that the U.S. Supreme Court ruling-to-come might literally mean that government in the U.S. cannot dictate what people must buy, and if someone has no clothes, how can they then make them buy some?

Romney[edit | edit source]
It's been ruined beyond boring. Up until March 31 nobody cared enough to work on the page, and the condition it was in was an perfect satire of how Nobody cares about Romney. He inspires nobody. Now it was worked on solely because "We need a good Romney article", which wasn't a good enough reason to work on it. See my note on the talk page of Romney. This action has left me crying in my beer (see my user page). Aleister 10:32 April Tools

Just checked the main page after seeing your edit, and lol. It looks like Bing Crosby is looking over at Hilary Duff and leering. I can hardly type from laughing. She's all smiley about it too. Aleister 1:52 (UTC)
- OK, I've shot my left index finger off to calm down, just to the knuckle, nothing serious. Thought you might be interested at the progress of my list of links to ATS articles I find interesting (and will have to actually read most of them in-depth). I've generally written the article just so I could have a place on my user space for storing links like this. I'll funny it up some before mainspacing, but you and your conspiracy minded addled brain may enjoy some of the linkys. Al 2:09 (UTC)
- Hahaha, just saw the nice coincidence there. He certainly has his rape face on! Thanks for the link, I'll keep it safely in my safest safe. Mattsnow 03:44, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
Reply from Mockingbird ST[edit | edit source]
Thanks man, I love that caption, but I'm not actually sure how to add photos. Also, that message from Tasmania is in regard to an earlier post, which was, in retrospect, quite lame.
Appreciate the help, in the near future I will definitely be extending the article (shocked it didn't exist already) as well as adding pics. Consider this version a work in progress.
You`re welcome to edit it if you want, I don't own the page :P

The Full Hilary[edit | edit source]
Hello. Earlier I thought my Supreme Court page was going to be featured on points tonight, but I didn't take two other pages into account. But, in the moment back then, I envisioned Hilary Duff looking across the page at...Hilary Duff. I asked Xamralco if he could tatochop the pic of Duff and reverse it - and he did quickly, way too fast for a human being. So, long way of asking, the Supreme Court article should be featured within a day or two. Can you leave Hilary's pic up on the main page until then? Then we can have two Duff's smiling at the reader.
I got more energy into this because I've read and heard more about how the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that police can now stripsearch anyone, as long as they commit or if the cops deem that they have committed the tiniest crime - riding as a passenger in a police stopped car was the incident which brought up the decision. So I've added another paragraph and a bit more to highlight this truly sick Supreme Court decision. The Full Hilary would be a fun looker. Thanks. Aleister 00:38 5-4-'12
- Alternatively, can we have a different image for a while and add her back in when/if Supreme Court features? (Having her there for another 2-3 days would make it look inactive for people who visit over the next few days. That, and it would have more impact to have her pop up again at the relevant moment. Also I'm getting a little tired of seeing her there. If she goes away she may become fresher on return.) Nominally Humane! 12:56 05 Apr
- Good idea, agree. Have there been any new good unnews, I havren't look. And must go make a forum now, for cross website connection, check it out. Al 1:26
- OK' I'll change the pic right now, only to change it again when it gets featured. If you see I'm not on, just change it yourself, Al. And the UnNews are as dry as the Sahara: yours was the last one! o.0 At one point we got 2 or 3 a day. Mattsnow 02:15, April 5, 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks. Funnybony must be off for a few days. Check out my new forum, I've got a thread up on ATS about the ATS article here! It's a circle, damnit, it's a circle. Aleister 2:27

UnSignpost 5 April 2012[edit | edit source]
Now a major monopoly run by Xamralco
April 5th, 2012 • Issue 162 • Xamralco edition
Xamralco
Hello, fellow Uncyclopedians. It is I, Xamralco, here to tell you that I have temporarily taken over the UnSignpost. However, being as inexperienced as I am, I have no idea how to put an UnSignpost together. Thus, for today, the UnSignpost will be about me, the greatest Uncyclopedian ever! More Xamralco
Look, I know I'm awesome. My mom knows I'm awesome. Even my kindergarten, first grade, and ninth grade teacher, Mrs. Matthews, knows I'm awesome. It's just a fact, but I'm all about being fair, so lets see what the people say:
I guess "alright" is now a synonym for "Soooooooooo freakin' awesome." Who knew? Even More Xamralco
I am super, duper rad. I know no one says that anymore, but I'm bringing it back. It is Xamralco who brings back the rad fads. Xamralco will also bring back talking in the third person. Xamralco loves talking in the third person. I sometimes enjoy talking in the first person, but you find talking in the second person far more fulfilling. Still, Xamralco thinks talking in the third person is quite entertaining. Must fill up blank space
Crap, that wasn't enough
How does ChiefjusticeDS make it look so easy? Oh well. Xamralco out! |

Tuberic isn't a word[edit | edit source]

I have a question[edit | edit source]
Who the hell took that picture of you? Was that from a surveillance drone or something?--OliOmniOmbudsman 12:16, April 6, 2012 (UTC)
Question[edit | edit source]
Hey Matt, would you mind if I made an edit to the caption of the photo you put on "Counting to Potato?" While funny, it says the opposite of what the rest of the article does, which is, depending on how you look at it: either people with Down's Syndrome really CAN count to potato; or they can't in reality, but nobody seems to have really figured that out. Your pic is hilarious, but the title says that everyone's figured out that he's a fake, kind of against the tone. Thoughts? Mockingbird ST (talk) 17:38, April 6, 2012 (UTC)Mockingbird ST
- A polite user? Where'd he come from? Matt, could you take another look at the VFH that MrN tossed up about Data. He's written a very good summary of the page in the comment section, after I got it all wrong. Whoring for Data, what better thing to do while watching Tiger Woods collapse at The Masters.

Golf UnNews[edit | edit source]
Thanks for putting the page on the main page, but I saw after I'd written it that you had a new one, and I was hoping it wouldn't follow too closely.

Images for UnNews[edit | edit source]
Okay - a fair bit of tweaking later, I have the following:
The rotating mike has already been added to the UnNews audio template, as it has a tendency to draw the eye to the fact that there is audio there.
I'm still probably going to reduce the size of these (as they are currently 3,200 pixels square, and we probably only need them about 400 pixels at the most, which is 1/16 the file size). Nominally Humane! 04:15 09 Apr

The Newspaper That Contains Neither News Nor Paper.
Apr 12th, 2012 • Issue 163ish • The newspaper used as insulation by discerning homeless
Nobody panic. Everything is fine. In a precedented move, USP has handed the reigns over to somebody new in order to ensure it's timely delivery. USP has had a fine tradition of coming out regularly on a weekly basis[citation needed] since it's creation, and the handing of the reigns to In the meantime, the news continues to happen. VFH is in the healthiest state that it has been over the past 7ish years,[citation needed] as we are constantly reminded by the site banner, which is updating as regular as clockwork.[citation needed] The top three features articles of March is proving to be a hotly contested title,[citation needed] and is shaping up to be the first month in history where every article is likely to be in the coveted top position. And we have a strong consensus that there is no need for new admins, however we have a record number of potential admins nominated.[citation needed] Everything is fine. More Stuff
Sadly, I will no longer use the UnSignpost to talk about how great I am. Instead, the UnSignpost will return to its original purpose: Telling you about what's happening on the wonderful website known as Uncyclopedia.[citation needed] As Puppy mentioned before, ChiefjusticeDS has left his position as head editor and In other news, the Great Republican Write-a-thon is coming to a close. If you haven't heard, a Canadian dude and some schmuck who knows nothing about American politics are co-hosting a writing competition that will assess which team of Uncyclopedians can write a better article about a selected 2012 Republican presidential candidate nominee. Strangely, these same two doofuses have also submitted an entry, something which most certainly should have been against the rules. Nevertheless, articles on all four candidates were put up on VFH (which is serving as a judge), though the Mitt Romney article immediately failed since no one bothered to rewrite it (which is mildly entertaining considering he's leading at the moment). And now, some cheese: No, that wasn't random... Everybody panic. Nothing is fine.
In an emergency spur-of-the-moment move, the USP has forced the burden of writing it each week onto another innocent soul in order to ruin their lives like so many others.[citation needed] USP has had a fine tradition of not coming out since 1974.[citation needed] USP has decided to hand the blood-stained reigns to In the meantime, the terrible news continues to depress us all. VFH is running as slowly as the plumbing in my house and actually has negative six entries.[citation needed] However, the site banner seems to want to shove lies down our thoats. This is probably on account of the fact that it is only editable by lying, cheating, inbred bastards that can't seem to update the fuckin' thing. The top three featured articles of March is proving to only be winnable if you suck the right person's dick,[citation needed] and is shaping up to be just like all the other months ever: uninteresting. And a record number of people were forced to vote that they want more narcissistic assholes, however not one single person has been nominated, as there are no users left.[citation needed] Nothing is fine. |

You are a Pee Buddy Judge[edit | edit source]
I'm sure that's not news. But feel free to add {{User:PuppyOnTheRadio/PBJ}} to your user page to show everyone how clever you are.
As for the method of judging - I recorded this thingy earlier, but the long and the short of it - you will be judging every article in the category for which you chose to judge. I will create a judging page later on that allows you to add a comment/link to each article you judge, along with a score. The ideal is that you score one a scale of 0.0 - 10.0 in total, but if you want to score out of 100, or 50, or 8.9, you can do that as well, as long as you put in the max score in as well. (It will become apparent once I've actually created the judging page.) Judging will start on the 1st (sort of). I've actually allowed a days grace for people to complain about entries or submit a late entry with a good excuse (ie: I was dead for two weeks for tax purposes). I'll keep you posted. Nominally Humane! 02:32 17 Apr
