Insight into the Mind of an Asparagus[edit source]
Nice article and I moved it to UnScripts:Insight into the Mind of an Asparagus, as it is a play, right? Anton (talk) 08:56, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
- It did indeed turn out to be a play, though that's not what I thought it was going to be before I wrote it. I also wasn't aware of script space until some time late in the game. Thanks; I think it belongs there. Snarglefoop (talk) 23:05, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
I must...[edit source]

If that's Britney she needs a shave... Snarglefoop (talk) |
...write to you, and appeal to your logical side. Why would I write an article about a has-been singer named Brittany Spears? The page in question on VFH has nothing to do with her, zip, zero. It is about a large bird with a deadly beak. If it ever gets featured then readers will likely confuse the two as well, which (I suppose) is part of the satire of the page. There are no metaphors or anything else in the article concerning Ms. Spears. Any thought of that is solely in the mind of the reader, and the talk page makes clear that this is the case. Life is strange, Ms. Spears is stranger. Thanks for hearing me out (or in). Aleister 22:29 9=4=14
- Errmmmm ... To tell the truth I didn't even know Ms. BS was a singer before reading about her on Uncyclopedia. (It is her, right? not him in drag or something?) But given the similarities in the names, I kind of thought, maybe, that's really who the Spear article was supposed to be about, and if I'd only known who Ms. (or Mr.) Spears was, maybe, the article would have been, like, a hoot and a half.
But, I guess not...
Anyway thanks for explaining. Snarglefoop (talk) 00:34, 10 April 2014 (UTC)- Oh... I finally get it. Aleister means that there are no real metaphors in the page, only things pretending to be metaphors. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 01:56, 17 Jun 2014
- No, not even that. I was writing about a large bird of prey. If anything came across as a metaphor about Brit Spears it was entirely unintentional but worked out nonetheless. Now go take your no votes away. go now. Aleister 12:28 17-6-14
- Oh... I finally get it. Aleister means that there are no real metaphors in the page, only things pretending to be metaphors. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 01:56, 17 Jun 2014

Curious this seems to work[edit source]
Eh?
Woo hoo -- but this seems to work too -- how unexpected. 5.39.84.59 22:56, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
In case it's not obvious that's a TOR node.
- Odd - I thought we had TorBlock installed, but apparently we don't. Must have been confusing us with someone else. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 01:37, 30 May 2014

Hwtobvegan[edit source]
good page, thanks for writing it. By extreme coincidence I just learned yesterday about wine being non-vegan. And now I learn it again by reading your page. Happily, I don't drink wine (a few sips this past year when women pushed it on me as a fine thing to drink). Nor beer, except for a couple of sips. great data though. Have you seen my Corpsearian page? I coined the word apparently. thanks again...Aleister 12:26 17-6-14
- Good word, and an intense article! Tx... (And now I need to run and check on dinner -- got beans cookin' in the crock pot, got bean bread baking in the bread machine, and another case of Beano's supposed to arrive from Amazon just any day now...) Snarglefoop (talk) 20:12, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
Re:User Name on IRC[edit source]
"out here in the world of reasoning beings it's generally considered just a bit rude to register someone else's user name on IRC"
- No it's not, you just made that up, and there's nothing you can do about it.
" This is particularly the case when said name is sufficiently unique that it couldn't possibly be a coincidence, nor anything other than an attempt to claim said name in order to cause grief to the rightful owner."
- The name is not sufficiently unique there is a user on Illogicopedia who is not you using that name, unless it is you in which case you are using a sockpuppet, additionally, OWNERSHIP of nicknames on IRC belongs to whoever registers a username first, on Illogicopedia it's llwy-ar-lawr, on Uncyclopedia it's you and / or llwy-ar-lawr. On Freenode it's me and there's not a damn thing you can do about it.
"as I don't really want to overtax your capacities for understanding or call undue attention to certain mental shortcomings of yours which we would prefer to refrain from mentioning"

Where the Hell ARE you, Foop??[edit source]
I can hear them talking.
"We gave 'im that award, back a month 'r' so, 'n' now he don't do nuthin!"
"Yup, 'e was just workin' for the glory, you mark my words. Now all 'es doon is sittin in front of 'is 'puter 'n drinkin' coffee 'n' playin' games!"
"Don't 'e like us no more??"
Well let me tell you this about that. My boss[1] has been saying the same sort of stuff. "Where the hell are you?? We don't play you to sit in front of a computer and pay games and drink whatever you're drinkin and it better not be beer during work hours!"
Well rest assured everybody...
It was an accident[edit source]
A very bad accident, in fact.
An accident with ... a computer game.
As it happens most of the so-called games on this site and on Illogicopedia don't strike me as all that amusing. But for whatever reason the name of one particular game caught my eye -- The Rain of Dead Cats -- and I started it up, and by golly it was really amusing, like funny and stuff, entertaining, and then it was over, I fell off the end of the game. Whoever started it did a really nice job on the first little bit of it but then wandered off and worked on their homework or moved to Cuba or something and never finished it.
So, well, anyway, I finished it.
It was a click-link adventure game. Like most of them, playing it all the way through is trivial; you click enough links and you're done. I added multiple paths to parts of it, but that couldn't really make up for the fact that there was really nothing to be solved.
But by the time I'd finished it I had some ideas for ways to put an actual puzzle into a click link game. And then I got a totally stupid and senseless idea for a game, which happened, I thought, to fit perfectly (IMVHO) in the context of Illogicopedia. It was a game about a bad smell. And I started working on it, and every 'room' was a separate 'page', just like you'd expect, and as I tried to make it interesting to play, the writing of it got pretty hairy pretty fast with an awful lot of page creation taking an awful lot of time, and then someone showed me a different way of doing these games, using the forum tools, using Goto to pack rooms into a single file.
And that was a hopelessly cumbersome approach so I went back to creating pages.
But then.........
Oh, well, to make a long boring story slightly less long (but just as boring) I got some ideas on ways to make it less cumbersome and I kind of wrote a little Perl code to assist a little bit with some of the reformatting needed and then I fell through a hole in the air and nobody's heard a word from me since, except for excuses as to why I no longer get anything done.
Voir The Stench for what happened next.
And then the Monster of Coding grabbed me and said "Thou shalt code!" (if you don't program for a living you probably have no clue what I'm talking about, in fact even if you do you probably don't) and so by golly I coded.
So, see also... CV_Dungeon and the user guide...
And of course I had to use it for something as I was writing it, so see also The Celestial Pirates
Anyhow it's all over at Illogicopedia rather than here just because The Rain of Dead Cats was over there.... (And, I might add, I wasn't sure these silly games were going to be funny but I sure was sure they were sure going to be illogical.)
So anyhow, what it comes down to is, sorry, guys, been down the block at the next 'pede over...
Update on that[edit source]
Things change.
This user is on vacation, sabbatical, administrative leave, or is otherwise goofing off with the knowledge and/or consent of the Admins. Or, more likely, they've buggered off without saying boo to anyone. Their expected date of return is when the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars. If you're lonely, or you miss them, leave a message.
That's not fair[edit source]
Ok, good bye if you are not coming back and good bye if you are. I haven't had a lot of ooportunities to talk to you or to collaborate on anything but I still feel like we've lost a great writer. (That's all in case you are not coming back) Anyway, first Llwy, then you. If this is connected, then Uncyclopedia has lost two wonderful contributors at the same time, which is a record of a sort. (And this is what is not fair) Anyway, I was not going to talk about that, I was just going to say good bye in case you were leaving. So good bye, in case you are leaving. It was a pleasure having you around. Anton (talk) 16:08, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks much. And, akshully, you know, the return time given above, albeit somewhat cryptic, is not entirely devoid of meaning... Snarglefoop (talk) 17:52, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
- ↑ Yes I've got one of those
Re-feature queue[edit source]
