With a lollipop.
YOU HAVE BEEN AWARDED A STRAWBERRY LOLLIPOP
Lollipop has awarded {{subst:PAGENAME}} a strawberry lollipop.

-- Lollipop - 20:17, 26 May 2011
- Thank you, sir. How did you know I like strawberry? 2011.05.27.00:52
- I'm the lollipop master. I can tell. There's tons of other flavours, too. -- Lollipop - 01:04, 27 May 2011
- Ok looks like you archived the page on which mine was the last message. Man I hate it when that happens. Why me, God, why me?!-- 11:50, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
- Because you're a noob. All noobs get that. Even RC. -- Lollipop - 02:19, 28 May 2011
- I've seen you about on IRC, too. Nice to meet you. 2011.05.28.04:27
- I've heard about you before IRC. I read this. I once started a forum to try to create a new Bios page, but Lyrithya and Dexter vetoed it. -- Lollipop - 00:50, 29 May 2011
- Yes, we have absolute say over everything that passes. But seriously, like Zombiebaron said, you didn't need to start a forum; if you want to do a new one, just do it, mon. ~ 02:16, 29 May 2011
- Oh. Bios away! (And, Dawg, don't worry, you'll be in the new Bios page). -- Lollipop - 02:23, 29 May 2011
- I'm not saying it's a good idea, just that we can't really stop you... but still. Projects... ~ 02:43, 29 May 2011
- On another note, why did you put an ICU on my article I don't feel well? It was started in userspace, there was two pictures... -- Lollipop - 17:20, 29 May 2011
- Lyrithya put the ICU on my article, not Dawg. Correction. -- Lollipop - 17:21, 29 May 2011

Alright,[edit source]
so you don't know me and I don't know you or anything about you except that you're a bureaucrat. So excuse me if your return doesn't evoke any emotional reactions inside me other than amusement over the style of your return. Yes, I really suck, starting a new section on your talk page just for this. Schamschi, 23:59, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
- The only emotions my return should evoke are fear and/or joy. Glad you enjoyed it, but I'm sorry it was so brief. It's nice to meet you. 2011.05.28.04:30
- Of course, it's always nice to see old users come out of retirement and return to the site, especially if they are not known for being a nuisance (the obvious exception being Benson, of course – I see you had the honor of banning him yourself), but that's not very personal. Anyway, nice to meet you too. Schamschi, 21:55, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
Yo Dawg![edit source]
It's nice to see another old face around here. :) I think I've seen Ljlego and Zana around in the last couple of weeks too. Hope you stick around. MadMax 19:36, June 1, 2011 (UTC)
- I'm planning to, sir! It's good to see you, too! I think it was this whole end-of-the-world stuff that left me longing for home, therefore, I am here. Then again, it might have been the fact I was on vacation, digestive upset, or numerous other possibilities, but I'll attribute it to the end of the world because it sounds better. 2011.06.02.00:54
Help Please.[edit source]
Hey, Dawg. I need to ask you a Question. I am new here, but I have a account on Wikia called Stelios7, It doesn't let me log in as there is no user called Stelios7, So does this mean I have to make a new account? Even though I already have a Wikia account?! What should I do?! Thanks, and I hope I can be part of this wiki soon! :D 81.155.54.118 12:15, June 5, 2011 (UTC)!
- Due to a very complex and messy "merging" a number of years ago, Wikia could not cleanly merge Uncyclopedia's users with Wikia's users, so you will need to create an account specifically for this wiki. 2011.06.08.18:19
Hi Dawg,[edit source]
I am Boso878 and wish for my page on Wii U to be restored as it was blocked by another administrator. It was marked as spam, which it was not as it was based on the Wii U and contained no advertising material or trash talk. I also believe it had some good ideas for people to expand on. Thanks.

Hey, we haven't meant met. I established myself as a member since September... I'm totally, uh. Not a noob. Yes, not a noob. Glad to see more returning users.-- 20:30, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
- I don't think I've ever meant in general. Thank you for noticing my presence and your kind welcoming. 2013.01.18.23:20
- Haha. Yw.--

Slow down Dawg[edit source]
Since the site's pace as laconized considerably in the past few years, letting articles ferment on VFH until they hit 10+ has generally been the only case for featuring 'round these parts. I ain't gonna argue with your discretion, but a VFH of only 10ish articles is kinda chumpy to look at. Chumpy. --
07:41, 5 February 2013 (UTC)- I wouldn't have done it had we not run out of articles. But once I started, I figured I'd try to get a week or so into the queue. Since we only had one over 10, I used the average vote count at the start as the cutting-off point (and, of course, my own opinion). It'd be nice to have a backlog of a couple weeks at all times. 2013.02.05.07:45
- Good point. But then also I forgot about Top10 re-featuring (whore, just in case you haven't voted, you haven't voted) but it looks like Bizzee won't stop postponing that shit because of his dick or something. Also yeah welcome back and shit! Good too see more crats poppin up whenever I figure it's my own turn to fuck off. --
Pics for your Mammogram article[edit source]
Hey, I uploaded a >picture< that you can use for your Mammogram article - Just though I'd let you know. :) - Strainj1 10:35, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
- Awesome! Thank you! Slapped it on the right side next to the ancient section. You really whipped that out fast, and it looks great! Thank you, again. 2013.02.05.15:52

F your userpage[edit source]
I tried to add an epic quote and I can't do it right >.> WOW.--Sir Peasewhizz de New York 00:56, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
- That's because my page is pretty epic... It'll show up in the "QotD" now if you refresh enough times. 2013.02.07.01:37
- I am now jealous.--Sir Peasewhizz de New York 01:51, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
Mamogram[edit source]
Awesome work with the mamogram. Look forward to reading more of your sh**********t dawg. --ShabiDOO 18:27, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- Why, thank you. It still needs an image at the bottom of the "mammo graham", but that's the only glaring problem. I really need to make some smores. 2013.02.08.18:37
March 2013[edit source]
How about in March we feature every other day?--Sir Peasewhizz de New York 15:56, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
- My plan was to do it weekly after the 2012 winners run, so we'll aim to have 7-10 days ready every Sunday. I'll adjust their length of feature based on how many we have available (anywhere from 1-3 days). I'll post further thoughts in the debate thread. 2013.02.09.17:20
Can you mark User:Lil' Pease Jr. as a bot?[edit source]
My bot needs the botflag.--
02:29, 10 February 2013 (UTC)- Just to verify: You do know how to use a bot safely, right? Do you have a sandbox wiki somewhere to ensure it doesn't damage anything? I am willing to flag it, I just need to be sure it won't damage anything and that we can stop it if something goes wrong. 2013.02.10.03:17
Good day sir[edit source]
Nice work! We don't need those old talk pages any more. I guess you found a way to filter the old ones... :) I think we have chatted on IRC, so hello again! Looks like you have left your huff master on automatic! I think it's possible to get an Admin bot to use for some tasks should that be appropriate as it does not show up on rc. Not that it bothers me that much, just saying. Anyway, I wonder how many "old" IP bans we have also. I assume we assumed the old block list from whence we came. I mean the blocks from a long time ago which now are probably invalid as the people who were blocked are probably now not using those IP addresses. I wonder if it might be a good idea to think about removing a lot of our older blocks. Especially now... MrN 02:07, Feb 14
- Yeah, I've been wondering about the blocks. I know most of these IPs got themselves infinibanned... I am actually reading and checking every single one of these before I huff them, and I should probably run them under DawgBot, but I actually am reading them, so they're not just eating it on auto-pilot.
- I'm currently only deleting ones from 2010 or earlier without an edit, but I'm considering getting another year worth out of it. Still not even half way done (seriously). 2013.02.14.02:15
Hi Dawg. Need some help? MadMax (talk) 22:11, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Maybe... I hit all the talk pages already. I'm onto user pages now. It's pretty much automatic (I just type in a reason and hit 'y', or hit enter twice for one I save.), I just have to read them and decide whether they deserve it. There are some that I simply don't know what to do with, though. I have seen a number you marked as "Anonymous Uncyclopedians" in 2011 (which I have preserved), as well as a bunch that have content that may be worth preserving (but not really on an Anonymous IP's User page). Do you have a bot setup? I could split the remainder of the IP list with you if you wanted. Thoughts? 2013.02.14.22:36
No, I don't have one. I don't mind doing it manually though. Are you just using Special:PrefixIndex to find the IP user pages? MadMax (talk) 22:52, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- I believe so. There's a quick-n-dirty script that you just send a namespace ID and a starting name, then it gets as many results as you want. I just run it starting at 1, dumping to a file, then grep that for IPs and dump that into a file that I use to feed my bot that opens each user page and gives me a last edit date, last editor, and the contents of the page. I'm up to addresses starting with 60 right now, so maybe you could start at 99 and work backward so we meet in the middle. Presently, I'm only deleting 2011 or earlier, and preserving the few that are amusing (or appear to serve some purpose). 2013.02.14.23:01
Ok. I'll get to work. :) MadMax (talk) 23:02, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Also, for more entertaining comments, try running a "whois -h whois.arin.net [ip]" on some to see who owns them. It's amazing how many school districts are represented here. 2013.02.14.23:06
- Thank you for the help! :) 2013.02.14.23:09
- Also... What would you like us to do with pages like this: User:65.163.160.177. I could burn everything in that category very rapidly/automatically if we don't need them anymore. 2013.02.14.23:18
- Was this your old IP? User:66.42.127.183 2013.02.14.23:34
I think the anonymous category was originally intended to identify helpful IPs in addition to editors using {{Anonymous}}. It looks like User:65.163.160.177 contributed to quite a few UnNews articles a few years back. I don't know if the category is necessary after all this time so I guess its your call. User:66.42.127.183 wasn't mine but I do remember the IP. Too bad he/she never registered. MadMax (talk) 23:49, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- In 2007 {{CUN}} {{FH|Article=[article]}} was placed on IP User pages of IPs that wrote featured articles. 2013.02.14.23:51
- User:213.67.223.7 Opinions? 2013.02.14.23:52
- Actual funny page: User:24.220.195.154 2013.02.14.23:55
Yeah, I ran across one myself (User:85.74.155.216). I'm surprised how many IPs have contributed to featured articles. I've mostly been deleting just the junk pages. Since there's no contribution record for the 213 IP you might want to move it to the author's user page (User:This is a hot dog with three ends). MadMax (talk) 00:09, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
- Done. It doesn't look like they did anything except that... http://en.uncyclopedia.co/wiki/Special:Contributions/This_is_a_hot_dog_with_three_ends 2013.02.15.00:17
User:81.131.66.68 is an odd one. MadMax (talk) 00:18, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
- It looks like it was stolen from Crystal ball, which was written in 2005. 2013.02.15.00:23
So is this: User:71.225.148.52 2013.02.15.00:20
Another weird one: User:72.14.192.3 2013.02.15.00:31
User:75.44.153.2. MadMax (talk) 00:33, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
This one is extra weird: User:75.15.242.85 2013.02.15.00:38
The site now looks something like the image on the right to me: ICU 2013.02.15.00:59

Wowza, you're doing this even without a bot?!--Peasewhizz ♥ you! How about we talk about you, for once? Wait. We always do that... you're beautiful! 23:28, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- With a bot, but I'm writing all my own message. 2013.02.14.23:32
- And I wrote the bot code to do it. 2013.02.14.23:36
- What other useful functions could I do with my bot? Also, when are you going to write the new bots thing in the USP press room?-- 00:10, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

They sent the wrong man[edit source]
They sent this jackass to come recruit me from the other site instead of sending you. I listen to the Top Dawg. You want to fill me in on your point of view on all this fork stuff or should I just shut up and get back to work? Yours, with the most kind and warm regards-- Sir Claudius CUN VFH (carpe diem) 17:26, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
- Glad to see you here! We're not really a "fork", but more a continuation of the original spirit of the site. Most of the best writers followed us, while the drama mostly didn't, and we have our edginess back (which had always been what made us special).
- Unlike others, I like Wikia for their strengths and I am deeply thankful that they've endured us all these years, but I also believe they're a poor fit for this community. Our goals never crossed, let alone matched. We're far too unruly and risky for a corporate owner that needs to appease investors and avoid lawsuits, which is why they kept buckling down on us. If they wanted to act in the best interest of the community, lock it down, remove all images from pages, reskin it to match Wikia, offer us the domain at a decent price, direct interested editors to our site (that BY in CC-BY-NC-SA), and mirror our articles without images (to avoid copyvios and keep the nudity away) on a periodic basis.
- I know they won't do this because domain registration renewal fees are cheap and they may still be desperate for ad impressions, clicks, and search engine rank, but I believe there's something to be said for the good will this would generate. Unlike others, we never matched their licensing or culture, especially in comparison to the numerous fan sites they now host that were cultivated completely under Wikia with the right licensing. These sites are all factual and more wikipedia-lite than wikipedia-parody/insane (closer to ?pedia than even ED, honestly). Now that we're in the background noise of activity among their communities, they only keep us because it's less effort to maintain the status quo and avoid setting a precedent (although, realistically, we have always been a very special case, more extreme than even wikifur, which they did close when it left).
- Our domain was bought due to our high activity (the highest they hosted at the time), so it was a good strategic business decision to buy us at the time. This was more luck than design. If we had been able to host ourselves as we do now rather than depending on them, Wikia wouldn't have had the slightest interest in buying us.
- Once they bought us, we started a long, slow, drop in activity due to the ill cultural fit. Most companies acquire companies/groups in closely related or complimentary fields to expand. Some purely invest expecting to wring the value out before discarding it. We were only in their sphere because we were a wiki and they offered us hosting when we needed it, otherwise we probably caused them more headaches than we were worth, especially as we got dinged on google results and fell in activity below more focused, factual, sites (ex: MemoryAlpha, Wookiepedia, and WoWWiki) that are far easier to manage. If they look at us from an investment standpoint, we went from being the golden goose to a white elephant. We're a herd of snarky sarcastic cats; I cannot fathom why any company would want to own/host us.
- I strongly encourage everyone to resume contributing here.
The CabalWe will do everything in our power to keep this site running smoothly and in a comedic laissez-faire manner as we did in the good old days. 2013.03.04.19:36
Also- how do you upload images here- I don't see the link to the left as I normally would.-- Sir Claudius CUN VFH (carpe diem) 17:26, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
- Finally a lucid and erudite explanation- I'm glad to see you haven't lost any of your wit my friend. So I'm not crazy or anything but I don't have an upload file choice on the left- do you want me to send you a screenshot? I'm not going crazy I swear.- Sir Claudius CUN VFH (carpe diem) 21:20, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
Your bot...[edit source]
...seems to have malfunctioned. At least I assume that this wasn't its intended behavior. For some reason, I wasn't even notified of this edit, although I have the page on my watchlist and the options "Hide bot edits from the watchlist" and "Hide minor edits from the watchlist" are both unchecked. You wouldn't happen to know why this might be (although this has probably nothing to do with the bot since this is not the first time this happens)? Schamschi, 22:20, March 23, 2013 (UTC)
PLS Judging[edit | edit source]
I'm sending you this because you signed up to judge the Poo Lit Surprise. If you no longer want to judge or are incapable of doing so, please tell me as soon as possible. If you're still good to go then here are the instructions:
First, read all of the articles and look at all of the images submitted. Second, judge them. Judge how you like, as long as it's at least fair and based on merit (one suggestion would be to use the Pee Review format). You, as the judges, have the sole authority to pick losers, winners, and disqualify entries, so please read the PLS rules carefully before judging.
Post your top 5 entries here for all categories except the Best T-shirt Design. For the Best T-shirt Design category just say which ones should be t-shirts and which ones should not be t-shirts.
