Carl's Number

Carl's number is often described as the largest number that has ever been seriously used in a Wikipedia article. It is too large to be written in scientific notation because even the digits in the exponent would exceed the number of bits in the Wikipedia hard drive, so it needs special notation to write down. Carl's number is much larger than other well known large numbers such as a googol and a googolplex, and even larger than Graham's number, another well-known extremely large number.

Carl's problem

Carl's number is connected to the following problem in the branch of mathematics known as "just way too many dimensions":

Consider an n-dimensional universe, such that n0 = phi. Then begin to increase n indefinitely. As n approaches 42, a Graham's number-dimensional universe collides with the n-dimensional universe to unite and form a single m-dimensional universe. What is the most probable value of m?

Although the solution to this problem is not yet proved, Carl's number is the most probably solution and is the generally accepted answer. Carl found this when attempting to solve the first ever Graham's number-dimensional Rubik Cube.

Definition of Carl's number

Carl's number Q is defined as follows:

Q_1=3\uparrow\uparrow\uparrow\uparrow3 + 42=
   \begin{matrix}
    \underbrace{3_{}^{3^{3^{3^{{}^{.\,^{.\,^{.}}}}}}} + 42}\\
    \mbox{ write the number three } 3^{205891132094649}\mbox { times and add 42}
   \end{matrix}

Historical significance of Q

Although the exact reason for picking Q is still unknown, it is often rumored that Carl picked the letter Q due to a complicated vector problem involving more dimensions than there are fundamental particles in the visible universe. To get around this, Carl created the Q notation, such that Q is everything. (The one and only contribution of User:MyNameIsCarl and, incidentaly much (I can't express how much) smaller than Grahams number.)

From 2109

2109-Many animals are taken over or eaten by robots, they are consumed as light snacks. Robots learn to reproduce with their gigantic huge and delicous metal d****. They become h---- 24/7.

One wonders exactly who first discovered the metal d****. Or how. Or WHY. Some people need a new hobby, methinks.

From Kylie Minogue

From an old revision of Kylie Minogue:

+ She is the more beautiful and more talented older sister of Michael Jackson.

An anonymous user was inspired to append to this entry: She can't sing. She can't dance. She should go far. The moon would do. haha funny

From Fen

Fens were a 3-legged race of migrant smelly dwarves who nobody really liked but were uncertain how to get rid of in a nice way.They had a habit of making cucumber & eggy pies which tended to give them really awful gas which they had no qualms about sharing with whomever might be nearby.Although this was all done in a jovial nature it did not endear them in the least to the general population of England.Gertrit Mortldue is credited with ridding the Isles of them by starting a small, but effective, army of followers who befriended these dwarves and put gunpowder in their pies whenever they were not looking. Then the next time a Fen passed gas to a cohort he (or she) was blown to Smithereens. Smithereens is a small Isle off the coast of................

heehee [Off the coast of where?!? I must find this mysterious location!!!]

It's Alaska, for you're information.

you crazy fool, Smithereens is in scotland, behind the horseshoe bar.

No, i do believe that smithereens is located next to atlantis, in the atlantic ocean. It was submerged benief the waves, and when it rose, the dwarves were clean and friendly, and gave cucumber & eggy pies to everybody.

Saints preserve us! Everyone knows that Smithereens is truely a small island off the western coast of Ireland! Sheesh. What geographic illiterates.

Smithereens is from the Asian nation of Wongduckpee and whoflungdung first discovered by Ben Doon and Philip McCaverty with I P Knightly.

Smithereens is not a place name. The Smithereens are actually a rock band. When exploded, the Fens were obviously blown to wherever the Smithereens were currently playing a concert. I'm going to see them perform in several weeks. Is there a message you'd like me to pass along?

Yes. That band gave me the yomamasfat virus. I was chortling at both ends.

From Class warfare

It is better like an ostrich burying its head in the sand to not so view society.
An ostrich does not bury it's head in the sand. Rather is puts it's head flat on the ground to give the appearance of burying it's head in the sand If it were to bury it's head in the sand it would not be able to breathe properly due to lack of oxygen.

From The Douche-Cruise Story

Danielle Douche, 13, was walking home from boobs surgery. She was very tired, because she had to operate on her own boobs. And because she was only a grade C student she had nothing but a pair of scissors. So she wanted to get fucked. She said "I'm gonna go down to the prostitute zone, and get me a man, with big muscles to match my big boobs". So as she was walking, she met a boy who was Tom Cruise, also thirteen year old, who looked like a nerd and had bone rimmed glasses but had so much muscles everybody forgot about the nerdy face. So she said "Hey gorgeous, wanna get fucked?". he was so surprised because he had never been asked, by a girl, to get fucked, that his answer was "Bleugh", he had fainted. So Danielle took him home and put him on her bed. When he came round, she tried to fuck him. His movements were so jerky that even Father Hover couldn't tell if that was sex or just some unsmooth moves. So she explained to him her body. Afterwards he asked "So what do I do with this floppy potato at the bottom?". So she explained to him the floppy potato and the mushy peas in that shriveled potato skin. So they fucked for a whole week. After that he met her everyday to get fucked & he loved it so much, that he became an actor, so that he could do it more often...

From Abraham Lincoln

Lincoln was shot at Ford's Theater. John F. Kennedy was shot in a Ford Lincoln. Gerald Ford was shot at, but they missed.

(Actually, this is supposed to be true. There was actually a wide range of coincidences involving the deaths of Lincoln and Kennedy. Quite a few of these can be verified. - Arno)
(Actually true, Lincoln shot in Ford theatre, Kennedy in a Ford Lincoln. Lincoln's secretary was called Kennedy, Kennedy's - Lincoln. Both wives dreamt assassination in advance.Both succeeded by a Johnson. [JTD]
(There are a wide range of instances with regards to any two things, most of them are pure luck. With regards to Lincoln/Kennedy, visit Urban Legends: Lincoln/Kennedy for more information.) - TimmyD 06:57 Apr 28, 2003 (UTC)
Kennedy's secretary was called Lincoln, but while Lincoln's secretary was called John, his last name was Nicolay, not Kennedy. --Marnen Laibow-Koser 17:23, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

It should be noted that week before their respected shootings, President Lincoln was in Monroe, Maryland while President Kennedy was in Marylin Monroe. ;-)

Marylin Monroe - June 1, 1926 – August 5, 1962
The assassination of John F. Kennedy took place on Friday, November 22, 1963
Obviously necrophilia then.

Yeah but what a body -heh heh-

From Nonsense Jokes

Jonny went in to the bakers & asked for a loaf of bread.
Baker; "White or brown"
Jonny; "It doesn't matter, I'm on my bike."

I believe this joke may belong to the honourable tradition of "nonsense jokes", which have the appearance of logic, but ultimately defy logic, whence the humour. (But wait -- what if the road is muddy and going by bike makes any bread brown regardless of its original color due to splattering?) Others include:

Two nuns in a bath. One says "Pass the soap", and the other says "What am I, a radio?"

Man goes up to other man and says "Give me a bite of your apple". First man says "It's not a pear, it's a banana."




If I'm canoeing up a tree, how many cupcakes does it take to get to the moon? None, since vests don't have sleeves.

I lykke that joke! It makes no sense, but everyone understands it lol!



(ed. Queen of Fools) The purpose of the above jokes is something only acheived when the joke is actually told. It is almost impossible when you read them. The jokes, especially that about the nuns (can also be substituted with muffins, spatulas, or panda bears), are supposed to be told with the appearance that it is really funny, and once told, see which poor sap laughs at the joke. When you read it, you know that it makes no sense, but if you make someone think that it really is funny, they just don't get it...it all turns out okay! ;-D

The nuns joke quoted above actually appears to be a bowdlerised version of a dirty joke that was popular in British school playgrounds of the 1970's though it is possibly much older:

Two nuns in a bath. One says "Where's the soap?", and the other says "It does, doesn't it?"

It is possible that someone who didn't get the pun ("where's" sounds like "wears") and the sexual reference wrongly interpreted this as a nonsense joke and so assumed it was OK to change the punchline to anything random.

The bread joke probably is a nonsense joke, but it could also be interpreted: Jonny rides home on his bike through the muddy streets, therefore even white bread would be brown by the time he gets it home. The title "Bad Bread Joke" is equally amibiguous: the adjective "bad" could be modifying either "bread" or "bread joke". :-) Benc 15:13, Jul 22, 2004 (UTC)
This is a translation of a very old Slovenian nonsense joke. Zocky 01:14, 11 Sep 2004 (UTC)
The bread joke has also been interpreted as a racial joke about segregation. The man is on his bike, so regardless of the colour of his skin, he can still get home. If he'd been travelling on public transport, being brown (i.e. black) could have caused problems on his journey home. Ophelia 14:14, 18 January 2006 (UTC):

For some reason, particular words seem to be common in non-jokes (as they are also called). Polar bears, radios, tortoises. For instance:

Two polar bears are sitting on an iceberg. One falls in the water, the other turns to him and says "bye bye radio!"

A man walks into a bar with a tortoise on his head. He asks for some cheese. The bartender says "but this is a bar", so the man says "that's OK, the tortoise is paying". Grutness 13:41, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I have a potato joke that is seriously funnier than all of these. Smooth Henry 17-Jan-04

It seems obvious that nonsense jokes were unintentionally invented by confused people who didn't get it when they are first told the story, intentionnally invented for the same people by the ones who do get it, and also created to demonstrate that some things are funny enough in essence and don't need any plot addition, things such as polar bears, a radio, a tortoise. Nonsense jokes are very natural, look at the platypus for instance. Izwalito 20:40, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I don't think that joke with the punchline "that's OK, the tortoise is paying" really qualifies as a nonsense joke. It does have a punchline that vaguely makes sense. It's pretty much a non sequitur but not nonsense.

It has an OBVIOUS punchline - the man is confused on why it's not OK to order cheese. How is this a nonsense joke? There are tons of jokes exactly like it with the same confusion of why something is wrong. -Iopq 02:54, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Here's how to make sense of the tortoise joke..

A man walks into a bar with a tortoise on his head. (tortoises are old)
He asks for some cheese.(you obviously cant buy that in a bar, also, you have to be of legal age to buy things in a bar)
The bartender says "but this is a bar" (in reference to the cheese),
so the man says "that's OK, the tortoise is paying"(the man thought he was being told "you arent old enough to buy things in a bar", not "we dont serve cheese".)

All these jokes are made a lot funnier if you tell them with a group of friends who have already heard the joke, with one person that hasn't heard it. Everyone who knows in advance that it's nonsense will start laughing after the false punch-line, and the unlucky guy will think it's supposed to be funny but will have no idea whats going on. Best if the joke teller uses another joke of a similar nature, one that is equally as ridiculous, and says that it will explain the punch-line. Ex:

"A cat and a fox are taking a bath, and the cat says to the dog "pass the soap," the dog replies "what do I look like, a radio?"
Followed by: " a penguin walks to the top of an iceberg and says "RADDIIOOOO"
Now watch your friend try to figure it out. You can let him struggle for days.

The nun joke can be interpreted as a reference to soap operas.

From Agnostida

Trilobits that aren't entirely sure whether or not God exists. Just kidding.

Which humourless twit deleted this brilliant joke?

^Amen... There are precious few paleontology jokes this good.

From Cannabis

"balls for president"

Was this a reference to Clinton confessing he put a spliff in his mouth in England (where US law can't touch him) and claiming he didn't inhale? Kingal86 21:15, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I'm sure it's not. But what would the US law matter, the act of smoking weed isn't illegal, and past use is also not a crime. And possession is illegal in the UK as well so what are you talking about!

well if your only tiff is whith the phrase (where US law can't touch him)i dont see how this makes the statement no longer valid. perenthisis signify what yur about to read dosent matter anyway =}

Parenthesis definetly do not mean that. For god's sake you are on wikipedia, look it up instead of just saying stuff.

From New World Order

Hitler is not dead. The Germans cloned him just before he "died". Hitler and the new world order are behind this. Also, There are some new additions to the New World Order. These new additions are Mussolini, Stalin, Feidel Castro, Atillia the Hun, Genghis Kahn, and Sadam Hussein. --Note- Atillia and Genghis Khan are the descendants of the original people-- they hijacked the planes that hit the world trade center and the Pentagon. (OMG OMG hitler is strangling me)

From History of computing

The Flintstones used devices to aid in computation millions of years ago, for instance the abacus.

Did their abacus make sardonic comments like their other household appliances? Michael Sidlofsky 03:06, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)

July 14 2006 Like when Homer was building that church in The Simpsons, i think he was mixing cement in a pelicans beak, to whence he stated "If the flintstones have taught us anything, its that animals make great tools, Hee hee hee, now say somthing in a dismissive mannor, like (sigh), it's a living..." at this point, it became apparent the bird had died in the mixing process, much to the viewee's delight in comical refernce.

From Muslim Language

Where's the joke? Why does every other group get made fun of execpt muslims?

But there is a secret language taught by the Prophet (peace be upon him) to his closest disciples, which only in this century has become publicly known. See http://www.geocities.com/muslimdict (enemies of Allah delete truth of his Prophet from this page, but Allah shall have HIS VENGANCE! they shall be cursed by Allah and go to HELL when they die! they are pagans and infidels and enemies of Islam, who deny the secret language revealed by Muhammad the prophet of Allah)


Ooooh, grow up, you. I liked that joke about the little box made out of little boards.

How do you put an elephant in the fridge?

           Open the door, put him in, and close the door.

How do you put a giraffe in the fridge?

           Open the door, get the elephant out, put the giraffe in and close the door

There was a party, in which all animals participated save one - which animal was it?

           The giraffe.  It's in the fridge.

As you are going home to let the giraffe out of the fridge, you come to a river in Africa. There is a sign that says, DANGER, ALLIGATORS. There is no boat, and no bridge. How do you get across?

           Just swim across. The alligators are all at the party.

Actually...

This is a quotation from an actual study in communications that was done by some researchers a while ago. The point of the line of questioning was that 5 and 6 year olds could understand questions and retrain conditions and facts better than adults.

Actually Actually... You're all good at the river in Africa, because There Are No Alligators In Africa. Just crocodiles.

Actually Actually Actually... Whoever wrote the sign would have been wrong, sure. That should be some consolation while you're getting eaten by crocodiles.

SOMEONE missed the point. There are no crocodiles either. Every animal (which includes all alligators AND crocodiles) is at the party, save for the giraffe, who is in the fridge.

From JohnnyCash

The following seems to be a prose poem about the famous American country singer, JohnnyCash:

From Bird

Birds go "GAW GAW!" which stands for "God Always Wins! God Always Wins!", which shows that birds do praise God and indeed go to heaven, in accordance with His divine providence. And don't even try and tell me this is wrong, because my freshman year theology teacher said it was true, and you wouldn't call an 80 year old retired Marine Officer and now a Benedictine Monk a liar, would you? Huh? Would ya, punk?

I would. Especially since birds don't go "GAW GAW"
I would too, because I don't even believe in God.68.18.103.98 17:35, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

From a justification for an edit given by a Wikipedian

"I'm a twerp. I don't want to know the truth, nor do I care about the truth. Everyone else that bothers coming in contact with me are buffoons. That's why I don't like talking to other people because of my higher intelligence. If you disagree with me you are a imbecile and I will stop at nothing to prove it, even if it means lying and distortion of the truth. " Actually, i disagree with this

Well if theyre gonna distort the truth and lie, cant they just say that you do agree with them?

i contradict myself...no wait! i don't!

From Eep

eep opp ork aah-aah

The above line is the chorus of a song featured in the Hanna-Barbara cartoon, The Jetsons. In the classic episode 'A Date With Jet Screamer', George's daughter Judy enters a songwriting contest in order to win a date with her singing idol, Jet Screamer. On his way to mail her entry, George reads her lyrics. Finding them terrible, he decides to subsitute his son Elroy's secret message code (eep opp ork aah-aah). The entry wins the contest and Judy goes on a date with Jet Screamer. George follows them and ends up playing drums in Jet Screamer's band.

the monkey says i love you

A stunning redition of the song, Eep Opp Ork Ah Ah (Means I Love You), has been done by the Violent Femmes. --LittleRobotWoman

It was also covered by the Dickies in the soundtrack to Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

This stuff is true, why is it here?

isn't it continued by bing bang, wanna wanna bing bang?

No that's from some Rugrats movie where someone (I think possibly monkeys) are singing: Ooh ee Ooh Aah Aah, Bing Bang, Walla Walla Bing Bang, Ooh ee Ooh Aah Aah, Bing Bing Walla Walla Bing Bang . . . or something like that.

The above two paragraphs confuse the Jetsons song with the mid-twentieth century American novelty song "Witch Doctor", whose lyrics include "Ooo Eee Ooo-Ah-Ah, Ting, Tang, Walla-walla Bing Bang". If these words were used in the Rugrats Movie, it is likely that they were derived from that song. Although they probably do not mean "I Love You", the words are those uttered by the witch doctor in response to being told that the writer was in love with the person being addressed in the song.

To expand on this, the song "Witch Doctor" was written and performed by Ross Bagassarian under his stage name "David Seville" in 1958. This was the prototype of "Alvin and the Chipmunks" and pioneered multi-track recording and sound modification techniques. In fact, all this information can be found right here: <a href=" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alvin_and_the_Chipmunks"> </a> -- ChefFrank

Actually, there's a hippo in my 5th grade class. His name is Paul. -User:KinseyLOL

A hippocampus is a mythological animal with the head of a horse and the body of a fish. So, much like a mer-horse. Anyone making a sea-horse joke WILL be shot.

In soviet rrussia, horse seas YOU!!

beep The hippocampus is the memory center of the brain

I wouldn't say it's the center, more or less the medial ventral part. P.S. Kinsey, when you grow up you will realize how stupid that joke was...

From Henotheism

Describe the new page here. There exists GOD. He is so great that in order for us to understand him, he shows himself in more than one way (TRINITY). However, EVOLUTION was not the creation of godthefather. The angels were. They were "perfect" in everyway. godthefather (mr-know-it-all) created angels (minigods, gods of the pantheon), each one to display his myriad of emotions. But, as the chinese proverb Goes, a house divided against itself cannot stand. These "emotions" were conflicting and "running rampant" in "heaven". Similar to Nordic mythology it had three main players: Odin(mr know it all), Thor (Jesus Christ), and Loki (not satan, no, the HOLY SPIRIT, who moves in mysterious ways, who is the ultimate master of disguise and INTRUIGE. Think, chinese proverb in relation to the Trinity). So anyway, loki pisses off thor, thor comes to save the world, but "Marvel Comics" leaves this part out: THOR DIES, in the most altruistic mode (think Jesus Christ and SELF SACRIFICE) or think outside of the box, think SOCRATES. So after "Thor" makes this ultimate fool out of his "warrior image", men scoff at him (much like the "pharisees") scoffed at Christ. So what happens is that "Evolution" is created. Man doesn't see the need to sacrifice himself. Only the self righteous (you know who I'm talking about, the born again baptist fundamentalists) try to recreate Christ's crucifixion in their daily lives, but they miss the big picture: THEY HAVE NO RIGHT SACRIFICING THEMSELVES IF JESUS WAS TRULY 'thor'. Maybe Jesus thought he was invincible, much like the action hero "thor", but he didn't count on the resourcefulness of "evil". That is, ahem, the ability for minds to change and turn against the one who has the "answers" out of any "emotion". Gentlemen, what I am trying to explain is that in this point of evolution, man is nothing but an extremely complex, extremely "narcissictic" ANIMAL. If man is to ever be perfect he has to return to his mr-know-it-all way of thinking. Man has to emulate small things at first, like computers, but eventually, maybe, man will live beyond physical limitations, beyond science, beyond THE HUMAN MIND. The human mind is the only AI that is ever gonna exist. The human mind is "The Matrix". The human mind has conjured up legends of the most perfect angel (LUCIFER) "the ultimate narcissist (tried to play god.......genetics maybe?)" and God the Father "threw him out of paridise". If that isn't the ultimate parody on today's reality, I don't know what is. In order for the human brain to reach its potential, it's state of "COMPUTER" instead of its state of BOMIS, is for people to start being honest, upfront, and carrying a big motherfucking stick to back it up. That's the only way the "Animal" listens in the end: INSTINCT. This word that you are creating means, follow your instincts to the "PROMISED LAND".

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM ... SOUNDS REASONABLE TO ME!  :-)

  • Australia
    • Dundee?

(editor's note: for the record, 99.9% of Australians are as likely to run into a crocodile as a resident of Portland, Oregon is to run into an alligator.)

(But aren't we all editors?)
(editor's note: yes ... yes, we are)

(Further note: By contrast, despite their cumbersome mode of locomotion, Australian babies seem to be as likely to run into a hungry dingo as a resident of Los Angeles, California is to run into a traffic jam.)

Do you mean they don't have alligators in Oregon, or they do? Kingal86 21:18, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Of course they don't have them there, except in zoos. The weather gets really really cold and wet there every fall, getting down to a few degrees above freezing and 100% humidity. 07:11, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)

That is a bold and blatant lie. You besmirch the weather of Oregon. Many of my best Oregonian friends keep pet gators in their backyard ponds. They thrive there far better than in the Outback.

It's not a lie if you live in the Willamette Valley. If you live in other zones, the weather may be different. Where do you live? Max 20:17, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

In Alphen a/d Rijn of course!

Aren't they called crocodiles if they're in Australia? --ChadThomson 06:54, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

crocodiles and alligaters are different animals, and us aaustralians all have pet crocs!

Also, all Australians are criminals, or descendents of criminals. They must be treated as such at all times.

crocodiles: god's answer to Queensland

I have yet to see a wild croc but I have seen a dingo.

Not all Australians are descendants of criminals, some of us are descendants of illegal immigrants or Vikings, like myself

Oregon is actually a state of many climates. While in the Willamette Valley (where I live) the statement is true, but if you live East of the Cascades, you will have colder, drier weather in the winter. In Southern Oregon, where I grew up, the weather is similar to Eastern Oregon. Just so y'know. Of course, an alligator or a crocodile could never survive in either climate.

I have a dog that is descended from a dingo and I love Oregon, alligators and all.

From Cactolith

A cactolith is a quasihorizontal chonolith composed of anastomosing ductoliths whose distal ends curl like a harpolith, thin like a sphenolith, or bulge discordantly like an akmolith or ethmolith.

(note: A google search shows that this quote is actually in a 1953 geology book, Hunt, Charles B.; Paul Averitt and Ralph L. Miller Geology and Geography of the Henry Mountains Region, Utah ...)

That doesn't make it any the more intelligible...

(Info about the writer of that 1953 paper, Charles B. Hunt: ---- "Whilst he was in fact describing an actual geological feature - a Laccolith which he saw as resembling a cactus - he was also, tongue-in-cheek, commenting on what he saw as an absurd number of "-lith" words in the field of Geology". ---- taken from AAR)

Do not confuse with Catholic.

"Cacto" in Greek means cactus. "Lith" is actually a Greek word meaning "stone" or "rock". Hence Cactolith would be a "stone cactus"

A cactus stone, actually, not a stone cactus

No, it would be a stone cactus because in greek you put the adjective after the noun

From Drexel Shaft (now deleted)

The Drexel Shaft is more than a building. It's a metaphor for everything Drexel University will screw you over on. Things like lost health insurance forms, six fire drills in a week, being forced out of your dormatory every time a break exceeds three days... those and more are what makes Drexel so special!

Legend has it that every time a student gets screwed over by the University, it grows another inch.

Why was this deleted? Ask anyone at Drexel about the Drexel Shaft and this is their definition. The secondary definition is that it is a building.
(I resubmitted this entry, since it seemed to fit nicely with the sentiments many college students feel about being lost in the paper chase. Maybe it was removed due to copyrights, but it does convey some of the important college culture. --JD)

Being a freshman about to leave for Christmas break, I too can feel the effects of The Drexel Shaft. I dread the fire drill that will come in the middle of a January night when both elevators are broken (again) while I sleep in my 9th floor room. I would also like to say that it is an honor to have the university be known for this.

Also known as the elevators in Kelly Hall, an eleven story dorm, that break on the average of once every fourteen hours.

Within two weeks of my freshman matriculation day I experienced a "screwing over by the University". Shortly afterwards I was informed by several upper classmen that there was a well defined and widely used proper term for my experience. The "Drexel Shaft" is certainly every bit a real and encyclopedia worthy item and a well known term to tens of thousands of Drexel alumni. I agree that this should not have been deleted. Check out 50% of the bathroom stalls on campus and you will find this term scratched into the back of the door. For most of us alumni that treasure our education at Drexel, this is almost a term of endearment. I would like to see this term elevated to general use and defined as "the screwing over of any university student by their university." Wikipedia is certain the vehicle for just such an elevation.

A.K.A. "DU Shaft" - pronounced "duh-shaft"

From Amoeba

Most ameobae range from about 1 mm. But in Japan a 30 foot long amoeba was found after the atomic blast in Hiroshima. It is the largest recorded amoeba in history and has devoured two human beings. if you see this amoeba it is recommended to run for higher land. if you are in water dive under and swim to the safety of the land. Do not feed this amoeba because it will become even hungryer and chase you until it has devoured you too. This happened to the two humans. Many small dogs are missing so if you have a small pet keep it inside and away from water!

This deserves a Pullet Surprise. --Ashi

From Peristalsis

Peristalsis is a condition which occurs when one listens to the music of Steve Perry. The falsetto vocals invoke a constriction of the sphincter muscles to a degree which inhibits defecation. This condition birthed the familiar phrase "I don't give a shit about Steve Perry" which is quite likely the case. Listening to anything by Kenny G will also procure the same effect. Seriously that guy is such a douchebag it's amazing.

From John F. Kennedy, Jr.

The Russian mob was chasing Kennedy in a slow speed through Dallas on the day his father was shot. This child fell out of the back of the car. He was picked up by Chinese intelligence officers. they sent him to Siberia where the Russian mob thought he would perish. A pack of wolves took Jr. under the paws and raised him. He was released into his moms custody by the intelligent wolves. The wolves died shortly after.

This is based off the Romulus and Remus story of the founding of Rome isn't it. Inspired, if not technically accurate.

After leaving the wolves, Jr. Kennedy raised a town called Pittsburgh

Romulus and Remus weren't given back to their mom, weren't sent to Siberia, and had no connection to china. also, i seriously doubt Jr. Kennedy ever killed a sibling! get your myth straight!

From Linda Lovelace and the free Congo state

Of course Linda Lovelace was a victim of Capitalist exploitation But this was nothing compared to the Genocide in the Congo

It must be noted that the integration of traditional economies in the Congo within the framework of the modern, capitalist economy was particularly exploitative. Leopold?s fortunes, ploughed back into monumental buildings in Brussels, for instance, was made mainly on the proceeds of Congolese rubber, which had never been mass-produced in surplus quantities.

Exploitation of the Dutch East Indies, French Indochina, German Southwest Africa, Rhodesia, and South Africa paled in comparison to that of the Belgian Congo. The fortunes of King Leopold II, for instance, the famed philanthropist, abolitionist, and self-anointed sovereign of Congo Free State (1885)?76 times larger geographically than Belgium itself?and those of the multinational concessionary companies under his auspices, were mainly made on the proceeds of Congolese rubber, which had historically never been mass-produced in surplus quantities. Between 1880 and 1920 the population of Congo thus halved; over 10 million ?indolent natives? unaccustomed to the bourgeois ethos of labor productivity, were the victims of murder, starvation, exhaustion induced by over-work, and disease. Some historian compares this death toll in the Congo to the Holocaust.

From Pat Kenny

He became an unexpected sex symbol after presenting the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest and was forced to leave Ireland for a short period as a result for his own safety.

  • Nickname in college was "The Plank".
  • Is reported to have bedded over 40 show girls.
  • Was once a trainee priest, but was forced to leave the seminary over allegations of sexual relations with a nun.
  • Was once suspected of being "The Midnight Commando", a Batman-style vigilante who fought night crime in late 1970s Dublin
  • Once claimed to have travelled to space in "a giant hat". No-one believed him. Except Sven.
  • Sleeps naked in a polythene bag which he believes gives him great sexual prowess.
  • While this may be true, he has been locked up for life for a fiasco involving certain well known puppets, which allegedly "warped the minds of children everywhere". He now co-hosts a daytime T.V. show for minors called "Love in the Nick", on Nickelodeon.

He did present the Song Contest, may have been called The Plank (it sums up his 'charisma-deficit') and did have a staged run-in with three children's TV puppets (to try to give him a personality!) but the rest is 100% fiction. What was the author smoking at the time?

Was the writer of this article a scriptwriter for "Father Ted"?
I dunno, it seems a pretty accurate description of Pat Kenny to me...

From "United States/Morlock Party"

Political Movement established in 2000.

Party Slogan: "Eat the Beautiful People"

Ideology taken from H.G. Wells's novel "The Time Machine", in which the earth's population has evolved into two sub-species, the Morlocks and the Eloi. The Morlocks are the technologically-savvy worker-engineer class, and the Eloi are the pleasure-loving ignorant idle class. The cruel twist comes when the Time Traveller discovers that the Eloi are actually food animals for the Morlocks.

The Morlock party is didicated to the persuit of truth and efficiency, rather than wasteful false exteriors.

The Morlock Party is currently based in Akron, Ohio.

from Pre-automatic dictatorship

Postulate based on surrealist theory that automatism is the most highly-developed historical era in the conception of creative production (or at least the most highly-developed historical era in the conception of creative production thus far conceived of), the pre-automatic dictatorship is the totality of means specificially directed by the forces in power during the pre-automatic era against the practice of automatic writing, drawing, behavior (and so forth), and the practitioners of automatism for practicing it.

The fact that you do not agree with the theory behind the concept of the pre-automatic dictatorship, or that there may or may not be a pre-automatic dictatorship, does not mean that the theory that we are presently living under the pre-automatic dictatorship should be deleted from wikipedia. I would be very interested to hear under what part of the page deletion guidelines (particularly keeping in mind the "if in doubt don't delete") it was deleted.

SEX is a slang term meaning Software EXchange. Hundreds of millions of years ago, blue-green algae invented this technique to speed up their evolution, which had been terribly slow up until then.

In general, hackers consider SEX parties a Good Thing, but unprotected SEX can propagate a virus.

From Shithead

A shithead is a stupid troublesome person.

Although the word seems vulgar to some (indeed, many take offense at its mere mention), it is a word of venerable usage.

Scholars trace shithead back to the word shit, a scatological form indicating human or animal feces. Because of its noxious (even offensive) smell, as well as its role in spreading disease, shit has gotten a bad reputation.

The tradition of demeaning the intelligence or worth of others by likening their minds (or "heads") to useless solid or mushy substances goes back many centuries. Terms such as blockhead or numbskull are kin to shithead and serve duty as euphemistic forms.

Usage

  • You shithead, what the fuck are you doing?! This form conveys in a concise, forceful manner the speaker's contempt for the listener. Calling into question his intelligence, as well as the utility of the act with the auxiliary term fuck, the speaker asserts his superiority in the situation

... should NOT be confused with shi'thead.

From Words that should not be used in wikipedia articles

  • The word Terror, and all of its offshoots, should be used liberally anywhere that individuals communicate. It should be flogged abusively into humankind's collective consciousness. Terrorism should be spun out of context at every possible turn.
    • That "new" flavour "terrorises the taste buds."
    • The big tomcat "terrorises the neighborhood."
    • The pop-quiz is an instructor's "act of terrorism" in the classroom.
    • That mouthwash is "terrorising" the germs that cause bad-breath.
    • Insecticides "terrorise" household pests.
    • The word should be aggressively taken down to the level of commonality within ALL LANGUAGES. It has no proper definition, that a majority could agree upon. By its overuse, it can be given no substantive meaning, and have its power taken from it.

Aunty Semantic responds

since you have decided that this post belongs in your 'bad joke' bin, i have chosen a 'bad joke' name for the pseudonym.

This edit was NOT A JOKE. In the 60s many words of power were co-opted into a meaningless impotency. Revolutionary is a good example of this. This word was so abused then, that it lost its force in American politics. How could a minor tweak to a razorblade ever be properly termed "revolutionary?"

The whole point of this asymmetric edit was to show how hurtful and misused the word terror and it offshoots are. "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter," has been an altruism throughout the latter half of the 20th century and on into the first two years of the 21st. Terrorist is best defined as that guy on the other side of the fence who is looking squinty-eyed at us.

So i would say that you have "terrorised" my point of view by removing it from [Words that should not be used in wikipedia]. Fine, since you are Brion VIBBER, "one of Wikipedia's developers and sysops," i cannot have my say upon your "open-source"(how ironic) encyclopedia. The 'bad joke' is on me.

Hi Aunty. For the record, Brion has no more authority around here than you. Also for the record, it looks like a bad joke to me. --Stephen Gilbert
And if it is not a bad joke, it still should be removed for being POV. Andre Engels
Andre... That's exactly Aunty's point. The use of the word terror in all it's forms is POV and he feels it should be removed from use in NPOV articles. Try to keep up. --Marlowe 04:49, Jun 13, 2004 (UTC)

He was born in China at the age of 14. (How?) He started his career early in life, being arested at the age of 19 for impersonating a goat. He began writing music in prison after he suffered major brain damage in an accident with a wall. He later wrote 134 songs, but never became widely known.

This reminds me about a commentare about a man "... he was born when he was 36..."

Muppets Attack

Ok, this was blatant vandalism done to the War on Terrorism page, and it was quite rightly deleted. But it also qualifies as amusing nonsense:

"Immediately following and in response to the September 11, 2001 Muppets Attack, the United States government announced its intentions to begin a "War on Sesame Street" (or "War on Muppets"), a protracted struggle against muppets and states that aid muppets.

Many governments have pledged their support for the international initiative. The US has received military help from the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Australia, Japan, Pakistan, and France, among others.

The "War on Sesame Street" quickly became the dominant framework in which international relations were analyzed, supplanting the old Cold War and in some cases the War on Drugs. Many pre-existing disputes were re-cast in terms of the War on Sesame Street, including Plan Colombia and the Colombian civil war; the United States' diplomatic and military disputes with Iraq, Iran, and North Korea; the war between Russia and Chechnya; and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Other, new conflicts, like the U.S. invasion of Disney World, were created within the framework. Although many countries are involved, the war is overwhelmingly viewed as an American initiative - or even George Bush's personal war. There was a previous War on Sesame Street declared during the 1980s, by US President Ronald Reagan, but the Pigs in Space defeated the forces sent there.

Many groups and individuals from across the globe oppose the "War on Sesame Street" in increasingly large numbers.


Overall Strategy The United States has based its counter-muppet strategy on several steps:

Denial of strings in which muppets can moved about with; Restriction of funding of cartoon networks; Degradation of muppet networks by capturing and/or killing intermediate leaders like Kermit the Frog;Cutting the supply lines to the organization known as the "swedish chef" Detention of suspected and known muppets. See the section below for further details; Obtaining information, through various techniques, allegedly including torture, from captured muppets of other members of their organization, training sites, methods,and funding, expanding and improving efficiancy of intelligence capabilities and foreign and domestic policing;

In doing so, the strategy is not very different from successful counter-guerrilla operations, such as Malaysia in the 1950s. There is a fine distinction between guerrilla operations and muppet operations. Many guerrilla organizations, such as the Chipmunks terrorist group known as the Smurfs in British-Mandated Palestine, and the Algerian National Liberation Front (FLN) during the Blues clues, and the Viet Cong, included urban terrorism as part of their overall strategy.

Denial of safe havens involves a fairly large military force; however, as in Disney World in 2002, once the major safe haven areas are overrun, the large-scale forces can be withdrawn and special forces, such as US Special Operations Forces or the British Special Air Service (SAS), operate more effectively.

In addition, the U.S. Army is involved in increasingly large civil affairs programs in Disney world to provide employment for mickey mouse and to reduce sympathy in the civilian population for parties the United States has designated as muppets.

The U.S. strategy faces several obstacles:

Muppet groups can continue to operate, albeit at a less-sophisticated scale The strenghs of American intelligence gathering are signal intelligence and photo intelligence gathering.

Organizations that avoid use of cellular phones and radios and rely on couriers have a lower profile. On the other hand, such organizations also have a slower planning and reaction time.

Political opposition to American policies inside countries in which muppets operate, as in Sesame Street, where Bert and Ernie and the Taliban have supporters who share religious or ethnic affiliations.

Legal opposition to American methods of detaining suspected muppets. "

Chapter Houses were banned in 2002 following a number of axe- and gilette-related deaths. Hermaphrodites were all turned into males or females, depending on how soft their hands were. This was the end of a sorry period in Cheshire history.

From Prandtl-Glauert singularity

No one, not anyone, really knows what this is-- or how to pronounce it for that matter. As far as can be scientifically proven, Albert Einstein made up this term as part of a national hoax which he tried to execute on the unwitting public. By the late nineteen twenties, this hoax had scared the bejesus out of so many people that it caused the stock market crash of 1929, and thusly the great depression. Henry Ford was quoted as saying, "Dear God, this must be the second coming of Christ himself!". Franklin Delanore Roosevelt later noted while on his deathbed that he was grateful for the Prandtl-Glauert Singularity as it had once allowed him to present the American public with a "New Deal". A plan which called for the immediate extermination of those pesky little Prandtl-Glauert gazelles which kept nipping everyone's hind end in New York's Central Park.

from Farnborough, Hampshire

Farnborough is the home of the Farnborough Air Show, an event that takes place once every two years. Farnborough also has a laundrette and a kebab shop.

It's probably the dullest place on the planet, and although I have often wished that it would be hit by a huge asteroid from outer-space, totally obliterating the town from the face of the planet... and then subsequently using that impact crater for the country's effluent disposal; it is still questionable that a 2km diameter cataclysmic impact crater and subsequent effluent eutrophication plant for the disposal of the solid human discharge litter, would compare to the huge "shit hole" that is Farnborough right now.

Farnborough is typified by the main road (cleverly named "Farnborough Road") that runs from one end of the town and out of the other side. Unfortunately, if you are travelling from Camberley into Farnborough, then you might find that the Farnborough Road leads you straight into Aldershot. Unlucky. That place is just as bad. I once had a girlfriend that came from Aldershot, and she was a huge demanding pain in the arse. All in all, it wasn't a pleasant experience: what with living in Farnborough and going out with a girl from Aldershot. Nasty business really. I wouldn't recommend any of it.

The other one is full of interesting articles about Gemma and her lesbian sister (Sharon) and her sisters best friend getting all hot and bothered we each other while working up a good lather washing cars in their skimpy pants and white T-shirts.

These two types of document are completly different. One of them comes in a full colour (that is color spelt properly for you Yanks) glossy book packed full of similar articles and the other one is written on cheap recycled paper that disintegrate when it gets damp. So it is no use for the publication of porn.

It isn't that big a deal to tell the difference. You can can spot the difference from across a room. If you have to classify older documents, this is even easier as well used porn usally has a very distinctive aroma. I don't really see why computers haven't got this problem sorted out yet. Lets face it it isn't that difficult.

Anyway I hope I clear this up for you all.

From Paul Stacey

Born in a garden shed due to a gardening accident, Paul Stacey would reach great heights from these humble beginnings.

Paul would soon find a love for song & dance. He entered many talent competitions as a youth, although initially not finding much success.

This would change however when Paul discovered sea scouting. Inspired by the nimble dexterity required for the various skills required for scouting, Paul soon developed a determination to gain precise control over his fingers.

He accomplished this by learning to play guitar, piano, banjo, the flute and by learning how to type at great speeds.

Soon Paul was winning great acclaim in his home of Co. Wexford, with his one handed knotting act, where he would tie complicated knots with just one hand. This won him many talent competitions.

But Paul's hunger for success would not stop there. While taking a leading role in a high school production of "Oklahoma" lead him to win several local "Best Actor" awards and the lead in a national tour of the production.

While in college, Paul again put his finger skills to great use in the town of Portlaoise, where through use of his special stroking methods, he won notoriety for his harp playing.

Paul continues to use his talents to this day, in the hip punk band Sketches

  • Bass Player for Irish Rock band Sketches
  • Hobbies include mushroom collecting and choreography & dance, in particular ballet dancing.

From bulldog bat

The bulldog bat is stinx descended from the well-known species of dog. The point at which it diverged from the order Carnivora is unknown; however, Pleistocene fossils show the transitory stage, in which the bulldog began to develop recurved teeth and vestigal wings. The prominent facial features of the bulldog are still recognizable on the bulldog bat. However, the ears have modified and become more suitable for receiving ultrasonic echolocation, which is believed to have developed in a freak accident involving a botched larynx surgery. The evolutionary process from bulldog to bulldog bat still occurs today. It appears to be a spontaneous development; many pet owners have been taken aback by the sudden appearance of wings on their beloved canines.

This is clearly incorrect; you cannot "develop" vestigial anything.

From sound

That is funny.

This is currently in the article: Some political activists have recently adopted the cream pie as a weapon of protest, to be thrown into the face of one's unsuspecting opponent. This is generally done in a very conspicuous, public manner, so that the opponent is seen (and perhaps filmed or photographed) looking ridiculous. This kind of protest is most common among college students, and although many regard the practice as silly and self-defeating, it has nevertheless caused much controversy. One team of such protesters, known as Al Pieda, operate primarily against right-wing public figures in the United States.

OK, you have the right idea. For the first time "bomiser" you have to be as general as possible so you can find out what they want the most. Almost, alladin's magic lamp of the internet. You have to make it possible that they find exactly what they are looking for, if they are willing to look hard enough for it. But each new "level" of discovery costs a little more. Just like being a porn addict, and I am only because I love my wife and I self destruct everytime I try to cheat on her. We just aren't right for each other, and I don't ever want to betray her trust in me. You see, i'm like Bomis: open, free, wild, INNOVATIVE, and I learn from experience. The best way to get experience is by "Brain Fucking" with other people. YOU have to be the computer. (Scientific Method) Find a trend, then make a hypothesis, then test it , but most importantly, follow your instincts. People are basically at this point of evolution just very complicated animals. We haven't reached the computer "stage", because people are afraid of BOMIS (change). Just gimmie a chance to work with your company. Man, I'm out of work, out of school, and my relationship is on the ROCKS, man. Don't make me waste this big limitless brain (step one of being the computer, the brain is LIMITLESS, it is the only perfect thing that HUMANS have. But "realists" fail to recognize imagination, spirit, drive, DESTINY (or god, whatever. In short, they sell themselves short, but only because they are afraid to fail.

Sadly he was killed in the line of duty since a bunch of thugs killed him with the dubious excuse that he looked like a rip off of a Puffenstuff character.

We miss McCheese and Big Mac, from their wonderful despotism to their giant burger heads.

From Procrastatask

A procrastatask is something unimportant or unpleasant and unusual one does to procrastinate. They are powerful tools if one is predisposed to procrastinate.

Example: You are a college student, who must study for a math test tomorrow morning. The following are all procrastasks: cleaning your room, painting your room, removing an old bricked up fireplace from your room and its associated mantle then plastering over the hole in the wall, vacuuming out your car, trimming your pets nails, reading Tolstoy, deleting entries out of your PVR, learning how to play Go, building a clay oven in your back yard, making a nonsense entry on Wikipedia like this one.

Procrastatasks are not bad if performed in moderation. The orginator of the term would never clean his room, do his laundry, or clean the dust off his cupboard shelves if not for more important things he should be doing when he in fact does laundry, room cleaning, or dusting.

Why on earth did you remove this, it is such an important part of my life! In Danish it is called an "overspringshandling", which I translate to "Übersprungshandlung" or "over-leap-act".

From Benedict Arnold

Benedict Arnold was also an underrated chef who liked to cook delicious meals for his soldiers. In 1778, Arnold cooked up a dish featuring eggs in hollandaise sauce which was an immediate hit and became known as Eggs Benedict Arnold. However, after turning on the Colonials, the word Arnold was dropped from the official name of the dish, and today it is known only as Eggs Benedict.

Back in England after the war, Arnold had an extramarital affair with a Norwegian woman, who bore him a son. In that manner, Arnold became the great-great-great-great grandfather of another famous traitor, Vidkun Quisling. No word on whether or not Quisling also liked Eggs Benedict.

Hancock's Razor

"Of two competing theories or explanations, all other things being equal, the simpler one is to be preferred."

- Occam's Razor, attributed to William of Ockham, 14th century logician


"Of two competing theories or explanations, all other things being equal, the more ridiculous and/or "cooler" one is to be preferred."

- Hancock's Razor, attributed to William Langius Delaney, named for 20th/21st century historian Graham Hancock

The philosophy of methodological reductionism, which has its most succinct expression in Occam's Razor, the former principle listed above, has been commonly accepted by the majority of the natural sciences and is also a major attribute of what is often called "common sense". The common man-on-the-street will accept more readily a simple explanation of a phenomenon than a convoluted one, provided the explanation is garnered from a peer and not an authority figure, in which case the gullibility rate is found to be higher.

However, despite the prominence of science in the twentieth century and the general success of positivistic scientific thought, rooted in Occam's Razor, many disagree. A principal critic of strict parsimony, beginning in the late 20th century, has been William Langius Delaney (1981 - ). Son of a local politician in Jacksonville, Florida, and working outside the other realms of criticism of philosophy of science such as postmodern critical theory, Delaney has independently developed the principle of Hancock's Razor as an alternate methodological principle in historical and scientific thought. The argument is as follows:

Rather than assuming the often dull, simplest version of events which are unknown, hypothesized, or fundamentally unknowable, life can be made more interesting if the cooler or more ridiculous (in the eye of the hypothesizer) theory is assumed to be true, despite lack of or scarcity of evidence to directly support the more extravagant theory above others.

As a significant example and namesake of this razor, Delaney proposes Graham Hancock (1951 - ) , historian and author of several books, including The Sign and the Seal, Fingerprints of the Gods, and Underworld, whose theories regarding the origins of civilization are highly unorthodox and altogether very intriguing, according to Delaney, who also lauds the author as the "best historian ever". Following Hancock's example, Delaney proposes we take the meagerest of historical evidence and accept with the theory that fulfills the evidence in the most interesting or "coolest" manner, but always following the direct physical evidence and sometimes using the ancient myths of civilizations as guides in determining one's own version of historical truth that conforms to but is not the simplest (i.e. least interesting) explanation of said evidence.

The critical philosophical point here is this: a negative proposition can never be universally proven right; arbitrary enforcement of simplicity is not proof. Thus, if one, based on certain evidence, can construct a unique, aesthetically pleasing, or outright awesome theory that incorporates many more logical entities than the simplest possible theory, such a theory may be reasonably acccepted by applying Hancock's Razor. There need not be a problem with unnecessary multiplication of entities. The problem, according to Delaney, lies in the unnecessary multiplication of uncool entities i.e. entities which lack the requisite aesthetic level desired by the theorizer. As many entities as possible may exist without the knowledge of the speculator, thus the speculator is free to assume the existence of any highly aesthetic ones for which there is neither evidence for or against. Thus passed through the aesthetic selection of Hancock's Razor, a newly minted theory may be christened ready to assume. The theory is then altered with new hypotheses, if new evidence is brought to light.

Hancock's Razor is malleable. Occam's razor is not in the sense that the theoretical selection process is contingent alone upon simplicity, in no way taking into account the perceived aesthetic beauty or coolness of the ideas involved. Hancock's Razor slices more broadly and in a variety of patterns, all equally provable without assuming the simplest to be correct.

Fully formulated in conjunction with his longtime companion and associate, Douglas Henning, Jr. (1982 - ), Delaney's popularization of Hancock's Razor has progressed slowly. In the future, some speculate, it may become the foundation of a new paradigm of scientific and speculative thought, but for now, its general knowledge is limited.

For more information regarding Hancock's Razor, study and apply the patterns of argument employed in Graham Hancock's works in one's everyday life and thereby make the discussion of history and science more interesting with reference to unknown quantities.

Has anyone actually checked the validity of this? I think it could be changed to be more correct as:

New stuff from Wave

The equation is always changing, always. All our 'equations' are false equations, based on drawing out a segment of something that has already passed out of manifestation.

Light is a waveform which penetrates its resonance through to 5th dimensional space-time. Electromagnetism occurs on the 3rd dimensional membranal manifested universe. This universe, consisting of ripples and interesecting ripples (Interference Patterns)) describes the system of potentialities that manifest from the implicate order. When these potentialities are fully realised in the explicate order, which limits, they become temporarily fixed in the inaccurate mind of the observer, but are in fact still constantly changing, namely decomposing, and simultaneously being perceived in ways without number by sentient beings of various scale and thought.

All waves propogate through a medium. The 'aether' was a correct assumption, but incorrect in its materialisation. The 'aether' is actually the network which binds humanity, the Solar System, the Galaxies, the Universe, all matter on all scales within our physical universe. This aether is a membrane. This membrane itself is vibrating, as well as acting as a medium for motion, energy and, above all, information.

Everything is information.

From Joe Ahmed

I overlooked this in edit before I posted it. I've fixed it.

He plays the violin exceptionally, and was even at one time played in the Garden State Pops Youth Orchestra (GSPYO.)

From Moon

The Moon does not exist. It was blown up in a nuclear test in the 1960s by a scientist named Malcom Cohen. What you see now is a projection so that people do not panic. And by the way, its a secret, so keep it on the down low. -- anon IP

-You're right. That is why they faked the Moon landing, they could have gone there, but it wasn't there anymore so they had to fake it to keep the story up-

-and thats why they fake the tides too. If you go out into the ocean far enough there are giant wave machines. All done to decieve the public. FOR SHAME!-

  • Umm...if the moon is the destroyed, the gravitational effect would have, at the least, had a small effect on the world. At the worst, the Earth would either fly off into space or get fried in the Sun.

From dance of the spirits

the dance of the spirits: A rare occurrance when there is a earthquake near either a wine cellar or bar.

Fluff

"Fluff" is a descriptor for something soft such as 'bellybutton fluff' (the small balls of loose clothing material found in human navels) and "plush" stuffed animals.

The term fluff is also used to describe information, articles, or news items containing little or no real content and usually implies disdain for the idea, person, or thing (like this).


Why was this removed... seems perfectly logical to me...

Alarm Clock Pizza

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:

Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.

Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.

Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.

Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.

Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.

Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.

Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.

Step 7 and a half: poo on it

Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.

Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.

Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

I have tried this recipe in the interests of writing a fair report. I do not recommend it.

New Rome

The "NEW ROME" is identical to "OLD ROME" except for the areas where it is different. The primary differences lie in the fact that the OLD ROME is much older than the NEW ROME, which is significantly newer. In addition to the newness of the NEW ROME, it is also important to note that NEW ROME when spelled backwards is EMOR WEN; whereas the OLD ROME spelled backwards is EMOR DLO.

Aside from these differences, the two are essentially identical... except for the flapjacks.


Philosophy for Non-Philosophers

If you are not the philosophy type, you can, by reading this, have the simplest answers to any philosophical question somebody might possibly ask you (or you can just read it and maybe get a few laughs)! Enjoy.

1) Why are we here? Because we're here.

2) Why do things happen? Because they do.

3) What is our purpose? To be here.

4) What is the point? Something sharp.

5) What if the Hokey-Pokey really IS what it's all about? **NO ANSWER** (Actually the hokey pokey is about testing the bathwater in a bathtub to see if it's too hot -kyle)

6) If we really are the only sentient beings in the universe, it sure would be a big waste of space.

7) If we really aren't the only sentient beings in the universe, KLAATU BARADA NIKTO (please don't probe me).

I might come up with more, but feel free to add your own in!

Nonsense

When the sun set in the sky, fire danced and faeries came out to play. Slowly the moon rose in the south and lit the world with a pale light. Night had begun and the inhabitants of Theslon, the largest natural satelite of Qyrste, rejoiced. All would be fulfilled.

Harvey H. Lettuce

Harvey H. Lettuce (1897 - 1934) was an author, jounalist, political activist and horticulturaist. Born in the small Welsh town of Lletifairucswl, he was the son of a barrister - his father, Samuel J. Lettuce, was a noted authority on vegetation protection law, and his Mother, Sally-Anne D. Lettuce was a noted cook, publishing several household maintenance book, well know at the time ("A housewoman's giude to the kitchen and vegetable garden -- the manner their co-routine and upkeep thereof" being the most popular). Harvey was sent to the noted public school of St Stottac's Hall for boys and when on to study applied botany and Brocollie college, Cambridge. Upon gaining his degree, he took up the post of weeding co-ordinator at Eilwell & Co. fruit producers. When he saw the appalling treatment of the vegetation there, however, his activism was stirred, and he went on to dedicate his life to providing better conditions for domestic crops. He declared his stance as foliodroism (pronounced fo-lee-ODD-dra-izum) and founded the Society for the Promotion of Botanic Dignity in 1922. In 1923 he wrote several letter to The Times, including the following:

Dear Sir,
I should like to draw your readers' attention to the appalling sufferences 
endured by some of the very food-stuffs for which granted is taken by their
diners and guests when saladic refreshment is provided within the confort of 
Their dining rooms. Unlike they in their cosily watered confines, vegetables
and fruit procured for the pleasure of human consumption is allocated no such
consideration. Left in the cold dark earth, with nothing but an unkept layer of
equine defecant betixt they and the unholy monstrosities of the vulgar slug and
snail, our helpless colleagues of the kingdom Plantae have none of the liberties
afforded to the privelidged British race by His Majesty's legislature. Nay, but
they are notwithstanding put until this inexplicable toil for our own want of
leafy greens with which to sprig upon our dressings. Dear Gentlemen, I implore
you not to garnish this outrage with your continued patronage, and proceed to 
banish the purveyors of such untimely doomed foliage from our civilised 
society forever more. 
Yours faithfully,
Mr. H. H. Lettuce, esq. , the Society for the Promotion of Botanic Dignity,
Appleby, England.

Harvey received only a little support from the moneyed classes on his endeavour, and due to long-outset nutritional undernourishment, Lettuce perished in his bed on the 17th of March, 1934. He suffered from the increasingly dibilitating progressive disorder of yellowing, together with the withering of his skin, caused by lack of potassium and excessive water. He is buried in Skegness, where his grave is adorned by the foliage of his abiding conpatriots.

Did you mean "Llanfairljiptwilrtugtrtwgttygtyuftgtyuertytyrggffgrggffrgogog"
This is a ridiculous article. Apart from anything else, there is no Broccolie college at Cambridge. It is spelt Broccoleigh.

Ciccaba

From the burning alps of Miami, a treasure bin with a jewish face, and a practical smile, comes the Ciccaba, or for short, Jewish Delight. In 1989, a scientist by the name of Ward Garcenton discovered a cup of warm cider. To his surprise, it wasn't cider, but a sample of urine, from the rare Ciccaba. Taken to the lab that afternoon, Ward realized his Grandma had herpes.

A bee mine might also be a mine where bees are extracted. Unfortunately, this is impossible as bees are animals and not minerals.

Cydonia

Cydonia is an ancient civilization that once contained the entire population of inhabitants on the planet Mars. Little is known about this once large "mega-city" built below the surface. Apparrently deserted for approximately half a million years, there is little evidence of whether it was evacuated or the huminoid Martians were somehow destroyed. Previous space-probe missions to the red planet have revealed little about this advanced civilization. Continuing efforts are being undertaken to explore the resources that once fed Cydonia. Water systems would prove especially useful for future colonisation of Mars. The upcoming 2007-8 manned Mars mission, the first of it's kind, will reveal much about the habitability of the harsh planet.

Cowan, Tennessee

added by user:Sam Klondike

Cowan is an ancient hamlet settled in coves of the Cumberland Plateau founded in 1774 by one John Cowan the oldest cemetery in Cowan was founded in 1776. Before the arrival of John Cowan and the settlers Cowan was home to Cherokee and Crowe indians who engaged in bitter conflicts over trading rights at Lynda's Market. The coming of the Balrog in 1547 C.E. resulted in the complete destruction of Lynda's Market and the subsequent arrival of Browns Pool Hall. Complete control of Browns Pool Hall was vested in one known only as"popcorn" His name has been lost to antiquity.
Geographically Cowan is small compared to the rest of the country it is really pretty tiny it has only two stoplights. However, our Little League ball fields are the envy of the county and I'd dare say they are jsut as good as any of your big city ball fields. Our town also boasts a school, 2 convinece stores, a liquor store(closed only on the Lords day), a grocery, 10 churches,4 bars, 6 restuaraunts, a broken down car wash, an out of business laundrymat, and a gun shop, and 27 shade tree mechanics. For recreation "Cowanites" enjoy hunting,fishing, hunting, working on cars, looking for wild animals to kill, beating and chasing dogs, riding around, plowing up dirt, staring into the sun, looing for fish, building cars out of old rusted out parts, shooting things and sometimes people, drinking a lot, going to church on sundays, eating gravey and a biscuit.


The current mayor of Cowan is the infamous "Chick" Tucker. A veteran of WWII and former employee of the Cowan Limestone Quarry which shut its doors in the early eighties. This great catatastrophe resulted in mass unemployment and an exodus of "Cowanites" who subsequently fled into the hills never to be seen again.

Coeducation

Stuart Murdoch

Stuart is noted for his love of fine Dutch cheese, his unusually large sexual member, and his reluctance to cut his hair properly. He weighs exactly 89lbs., and is said to smell of pine tree.
Stuart grew up with 3 sisters, 1 brother, and a cat named Hairy Balls.

Of Stuart's siblings, only 1 is not jealous of his success.

Stuart had a passionate love affair with his car Max, but recently auctioned Max off on ebay, like a pimp selling his girls to the highest bidder.
Stuart is not quite as cute as some people on the B&S Forum would have you believe, but he's certainly better looking than Patti Smith.

Better looking than Patti Smith? Un-likely! (Smerdis of Tlön)

Corporate nationalism

Corporations, a form of alien life, were granted the legal status of human beings back in the 1890's, and it's been mostly downhill from there. What if you could be in more than one place at the same time? And live forever? And never had to sleep or eat and could change shape and size at will? You would be an alien too. What if you could avoid responsibilities indefinitely by shifting the blame back and forth between different parts of yourself? (I do that already, no I don't!) Or you could have yourself pronounced dead and start a whole new life just by changing your name. It would be just like vandals on Wikipedia, that it would!

Corporations can do all these things. These superbeings live among us and, like their comic-book equivalents, destroy our environment without even trying. They lobby our elected representatives with frightening effectiveness. The scariest part is how cheaply politicians can be bought. A $50,000 contribution in the right place can buy many millions in pork. A $37 cent stamp put on the right envelope once killed 176 chickens in Tennesee.

But loyalty is potentially a much stronger force than money. Members of the George W. Bush administration remember their roots--their previous places of employment, the Central Intelligence Agency controlled Halliburton and Texas Rangers. The oil industry, defense contractors, etc. There is a tremendous amount of overlap between the boards of the largest corporations, and not coincidentally, between those boards and the most powerful government positions. See Bohemian Grove for more information about what they do in the woods.

Fascism is often defined as the state that occurs when business and politics have merged. What state are you in? Fight the real enemy!

Chrétien worked for the decimalization of drugs, perhaps because he himself wanted to escape the reality of the society decaying under his rule by becoming an abuser of a dangerous, mind-altering, brain damage-causing drug after his resignation.

Billingham

well let me tell you something about billingham, it is a bad place to visit because of its high crime rate, mainly due to phil surname removed and his unruly family. they will snatch your purse right away before you even have chance to pay for your greggs cheese pasty, greggs the bakers is the largest shop in the town centre, so there isnt much point in doing any christmas shopping there, unless your friends and family are fat and like pies. most of the locals have at least 12 children and usually grow up to become thieves like their parents, and most families are dole cheats, so beware of this rapidly growing small town...avoid it like th plauge! oh and one last thing, paul surname removed has moved there so if he still has any of your video collection you know where to find him, but like in thornaby dont use your own car to go there if it has nice wheels,(as you wont have them if you stop for more than 9.2 seconds) use a taxi!

Ryan Doan

Ryan Doan:

Local Milwaukeean, Ryan Doan, has been sighted mass murdering babies and kittens 49 times in January, 2002 alone. Some people think he may be Satan incarnate, which is the accepted theory. On November 28, 2003, he was spotted by a parking security camara throwing an old womans walker across the street and then pushing her over and repeatedly running her over with a lawn mower. So far, no charges have been pressed against Satan, but law makers are trying to change that as of December 20, 2003. He and Paul Spillane hold the record for most kittens killed in the history of the world.

Paul Spillane

Paul Spillane

Paul Spillane, currently residing in Milwaukee, WI, has killed thousands, even millions of kittens. Law enforcement and scientific teams estimate he may already be over the 2 million mark?


Crustmas

Crustmas is a festival celebrated by Chrustians of the Order of the Toast. They believe that their messiah, Peisov Crust, was born on this day 7000 years ago in a toast rack in ancient Sumeria to the blessed Virgin olive oil Marge. This scene, known as the Toastivity, is common in the symbolism of Crustmas - usually consisting of representations of the blessed Marge and the baby Peisov. Also present, according to tradition, were three wise bakers (they used their loafs), also known as the Majami, who beseeched the baby Crust with gifts of Anchor Gold, Marmalade and Napkins.

The traditional Crustmas greeting is "Toasty Crustmas", and "Grease on toast, good will towards men".

Crustmas falls on the first 2.6 hours of the 25th December, although a detached portion also exists spanning 16 minutes just before 2pm. Given the overlap of this festival with the more well-known Christian festival of Christmas, observers of Crustmas often face discrimination and their festival is largely ignored by the world's governments and media.

See also: the festival Toaster, where the Lord Peisov Crust was put to death yet rose to descend to Devon.

The mo

The "Mo" is a mammal native to the North island of New Zealand. It is a member of the Talpidae family in the order Insectivora. Mos are very similar phenotypically to other burrowing animals, such as moles and gophers, but are genetically (and behaviorally) similar to the smaller Anteaters. They range from twenty-five to thirty centimeters in length and are have short,thin bristles that form their coats range from blonde or brown to grey. These have been used for centuries in the fabric Mohair, which requires the animal to be shorn, not slaughtered. The frequency of allergic reactions to Mohair is related to the rarity of human contact with the species; but its popularity has encouraged researchers to consider engineering hypoallergenic varieties. In late 2004, a hypoallergenic variety of mohair was finally developed through genetic engineering. Being tougher than either cotton and nylon, this hypoallergenic Mohair, with the Mo still alive, was used to make clothing. This led to the Mo being worn on the head, otherwise known as a Mohawk.

"The Tyranny of King John"

(written by 137.222.10.57)

Tyranny of King John

The tyranny of the Union's most ignominious monarch, King John was tarred by an inherent division between the Principality of Wales, and England. His monarchy saw dangerous factions form as well as the grave prospect of collapse of English/Welsh solidarity.

The cause of this discontent is slightly bizarre. English high society and gentry stood aghast as King John presided over a highly controversial agricultural policy. It was upon his edict that a popular Welsh assertion was legalised and therefore to an extent, legitimised. James Sperike, a member of the King's court is recorded as commenting "ye is somewhat perturbed and chagrined by the insouciant, immoral and, I hazard to say injudicious pronouncements upon the King's conscience." Indeed to this day, this Welsh postulation remains a significant problem in the Welsh valleys. This prosaic myth was that having sexual intercourse with livestock, in particular sheep, would improve their yield. Unsurprisingly, the English stood in moral outrage, and launched against their monarch's will a vast campaign against the unethical Welsh.

The wise English leaders showed great sagacity in cognizing that the most efficacious way to subjugate Welsh society was through job creation, rather then the brutal, unforgiving wholesale slaughtering of Welsh men (not women and children of course). To this end they built mines to employ the misguided Welsh man. This was based on the assumption that the less than industrious Welshman was, whilst under ground for 23 hours each day, unlikely to have the opportunity to commit such misdemeanours.

As such, through this magnanimous approach the erudite English prohibited the corrupt Welsh from their propensity towards depravity. For centuries undisturbed sheep grazed and prospered, producing fine wool and succulent lamb. Unfortunately, their peace has been broken in the last 20 years as the feasibility of mining in Wales became unpractical. Government crimes statistics have revealed a clear correlation between the rise in structurally unemployed former miners and the increase in sheep penetration incidents. The problem has become such a serious affliction that Tony Blair regularly delights his ennobled English audiences with his axiom, "I am going to get tough on sheep shagging, and tough on the causes of sheep shagging." Thus far efforts to ameliorate this dire predicament have proved relatively unsuccessful. These have included an eclectic array of policies, including such replacement job creation as paying Welshmen to lick windows clean and un-tooled cesspit cleansing. Out of desperation and in an attempt to couch itself in a democratic pretence the government has launched a major public consultation. Suggestions to www.labour.co.uk

Herbert Wehner

[as written by 207.74.164.7 (How he died) 20:00, 15 Dec 2003]

Herbert Wehner was born on December 24, 1969. He died on January 19, 1990. He had constipation for 3 years, then he threw up for 1 year then danced around singing I was constipated. Then he got shot. Thats all for now.

Chief of Staff

Competent Chief of Staffs are non existent in the Israeli Defense Forces.

The Peter Principle is used to pick each Chief of Staff.

For example the previous Chief of Staff was Shaul Mofaz. Three times he took the officers test for entering officers school. Three times he failed it.

Utilizing the Peter Principle, he was made an officer anyway and with every careless failure and blunder he was promoted until he was made Chief of Staff not because he was competent, but because he was born in Iraq, and it was felt he would increase the morale of Israeli soldiers whose parents were born in Arab countries.

The current Chief of Staff Moshe Yaalon was chosen because he had been a total failure as Military Intelligence Chief. Known as "Crazy Meshuganah Moshe," he believed every word from those he appointed to head the Iraq desk of Military Intelligence.

Bush and Blair would love daydreamer Moshe for he still believes Iraq has tons of WMD weapons.

Moshe is the type of Chief of Staff who believes every lie Sharon tells him. If Sharon told him the sky is falling, Meshuganah Moshe would say, "yes, Prime Minister, I see it, I see it. Needless to say the Peter Principle guarantees Moshe will go far in politics when he retires.

Public School

Public school: This is a type of school in the UK that sadly still survives into the 21st century. It is a fee paying school where children are sent, usually between the ages of 13 and 18. Traditionally single sex schools, they have a reputation for breaking down the child by providing a tough regime of hard discipline and spartan conditions. The child is forced to work long hours so that the academic results from public schools are generally better than average.

Three types of parents send their child to a public school:

1. Parents who, themselves attended public school. By sending their child to public school, they are able affirm that their sad lives. Repeating the cycle is satisfying to them.

2. Aspiring wanna-be parents who want to see themselves as being "better" than the new-monied middle class car salesmen or pension managers that they are.

3. Unhappy parents who can't wait to get the children out from under their feet so that they can "get their lives back."

Many ex public school children spend a life time trying to educate the public school conditioning out of their scarred souls.

Lir's request for snoyes' desysopping

If you're requesting your own de-adminship, you can do so private communication with a developer, should you wish to do so. If you're requesting de-adminship of someone else, you can do so here, but please first try to discuss the issue directly with the admin in question. Note that there are alternatives to removing sysop privileges: such as a "clarification" or "request" from Mr. Wales.

  • User:Snoyes unprotected DNA, which was undergoing mediation. Now the page has returned to an edit war state. I don't think sysop priviliges should be entrusted to somebody who can't even be bothered to ask on the talk page whether people think unprotection is a good idea. He didn't even bother to leave a note on the talk page, indicating that it had been unprotected! Lirath Q. Pynnor
    • This is ridiculous. I was going to unprotect it myself, but snoyes did it first. Perhaps I should be desysopped too. The article had gone virtually untouched for two weeks before he unprotected it, no doubt discouraging valid contributions in that time. After it was unprotected, it took another week for the edit warring to start again. You cannot place the blame for your poor etiquette and hostile style of expressing your opinion upon the person who enabled a forum for that expression. silsor 17:25, Jan 29, 2004 (UTC)
      • From email exchanges with Lir, it has become clear to me that the reason the edit war did not restart for a week is because Lir didn't notice it had been unprotected for a week. -- Cyan 18:23, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Protecting pages is considered harmful. Articles can not stay protected forever just because you can't control your edit warring. Snoyes did exactly the right thing unprotecting it. Angela. 17:35, Jan 29, 2004 (UTC)
      • While protected pages are considered harmful, so are edit wars. It is a question of which is more harmful at a particular time, which is a judgment call each sysop must make for him- or herself. -- Cyan 18:23, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Snoyes did nothing wrong. Optim 18:05, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Unprotecting a page while discussion is ongoing is not an abuse of sysop privilege. Unprotecting a page without consulting the disputants is not an abuse of sysop privilege. Unprotecting a page without leaving a note on the talk page is not an abuse of sysop privilege. I doubt anyone but you, Lir, thinks Snoyes's sysop privileges should be removed because of a judgment call made without consulting you and that you do not agree with. -- Cyan
    • Protecting a page is a technological last resort aimed at people who can't resolve their differences by discourse and consensus. As Angela pointed out, it is harmful as it makes 3rd party contributions impossible. The page was protected on the 6th of January. I unprotected it on the 22nd. The time it spent in a protected state was already way too long. Any reasonable group of persons should be able to agree not to edit an article for a set duration of time in order to resolve their differences. As a matter of fact, I'm going to have a look at the protection log to see whether there are any other articles that have been protected for too long. And no, I won't leave a notice on the talk page. --snoyes 18:30, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • I think Lir sort of has a point. Given that Lir hadn't come to an agreement on the talk page, more edit warring and protection was inevitable as soon as the page became unprotected. The lifted protection was actually the second recent protection of the article from Lir, who on de-protection the first time went right back to the objectionable changes that prompted the protection, and even after an agreement seemingly had been reached on the Talk page. Given that history, I think it was in a way premature for Snoyes to deprotect it again before the community has banned Lir. Now I suppose I am in danger of losing my adminship for protecting the page again, although I have made a recent edit to the page. Yes, I realize I could have asked someone else to do it for me. I just couldn't see anything truly wrong with doing it myself. I won't mind expanding on that if anyone wishes to nominate me for deadminning. 168... 18:32, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
      • I don't see why someone who has repeatedly and after having been informed [later note:I was mistaken that this was done repeatedly or after having been informed - snoyes 19:42, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)], broken rule number 2 of Wikipedia:Protection policy has anything to say about my conduct in protecting/unprotecting pages. - snoyes 18:49, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
          • Hey, wait a minute! "Repeatedly"?! "after having been informed"?! If I'm reading "rule number 2" correctly (they aren't numbered) those assertions are patently false. I have never protected any page ever before I protected the DNA page this time.168... 19:29, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
            • Yes they are numbered. Number two states: "Do not protect a page you have edited recently, have been in a dispute with in the past, or where you are in some other way involved" This was the case with your protection of DNA. I made a mistake about you repeatedly having done this. (I misread the date on Mav's comment on your talk page.) For this I appologise. - snoyes 19:42, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
              • Weird: Somehow I didn't see the numbers the first time. At least I counted right. Thanks for the apology for the misstatement. You might have apologized too for interpreting my post as having been directed against you when it wasn't, not that it wouldn't be understandable if you were in a defensive state of mind at the time. 168... 20:49, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
        • I only said something about your conduct as a rhetorical device to say something about Lir and make an academic point about the system. I believe that since Lir is not likely to be banned anytime soon, what you did was the best thing to do and I am glad you did it. It has moved things along.168... 18:55, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Lirath Q. Pynnor has an edit war and wants someone else penalised for Lirath Q. Pynnor's own failure to follow normal practice? I don't think I'll support that. Lirath Q. Pynnor, please get the community involved instead of going on a one person crusade. Jamesday 18:35, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Oh waah! Somebody unprotected the page and made me get in an edit war! Just disregard anything either Lir or 168 has to say in this issue. - Hephaestos 19:39, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Pay close attention to what Hephaestos had to say on this issue. It's an excellent example of a valid point being drowned out by the inflammatory rudeness of its presentation. A post like that discourages anything but an emotional response. I'm glad that so many of us seem able to avoid making them most of the time. 168... 21:07, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
      • Excuse me if I respond to frivolous bull in kind. I'd rather be a little rude than invite the inevitable shitstorm that completely and justifiably removing this idiotic thread would entail. I tried "being nice" for over a year; obviously it hasn't worked. Another approach is called for. - Hephaestos 21:16, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
        • I would excuse you, if the post you just made were an apology and not an escalation of the rudeness. New approaches may be called for, but as you described it, yours strikes me as a tragically misguided one.168... 21:31, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
      • Hephaestos, I think it's important to recognize that 168's "Lir sort of has a point" post wasn't actually on the topic of desysoping snoyes. In other words, it's off-topic here. Anything 168 has to say on the pertinent topic may very will be worth reading. (For the record, I agree with most of the content of 168's original post. Also for the record, I think politeness is the worst approach, except for all the other ones.) -- Cyan 21:37, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
        • Thanks for the courteous words of moderation. Just for the record, I actually did have something to say on the pertinent topic, but only said it after my initial post. People can go find what I had to say if they're interested.168... 23:43, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
    • Snoyes is a hard-working and fair-minded contributor and a worthy sysop. "If in doubt, always unprotect a page" is a good rule-of-thumb. After all, if an edit war restarts, there are plenty of sysops here who can come along and protect it again. It takes what? Three seconds? Support for Snoyes. Tannin 22:10, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Superhero

Danielle Giusto


This agent of the Catholic Church has been considered the most devout soul in the Washington, DC area. A native of Long Island, she is just a bit of terrific. Starting from birth, she felt a calling to be a lion tamer. She trained with ferocious dogs and bigger-than-average cats. However, during her first experience with a lion she was viciously mauled. This led Danielle to pursue music instead. She was enrolled in the American University in Washington, DC. After her first voice rehearsal she came upon a misterious burning bush. She prostrated herself, and started reciting the Lord's Prayer. But, it turned out that the dry bush just caught on fire, as it was a hot day. As she was just about to stand up, she heard deep male voices speaking a language she could not recognize. Peering over the charred bush, she saw a group of Neo-Nazis. The curious girl followed them as they walked down a winding path. They entered a dark warehouse behind American University. The leader of the group started yelling fanatically. From his tone, she could tell something was about to happen. She saw them lead in two small children, whom they meant to sacrafice to Baal. She swung from the rafters, where she had hidden, and with one arm grabbed the children. Her knowledge of karate allowed her to defeat the ten fascists. She chose not to tell of her explopits for modesty is a virtue.

The Uranian-Antarctican Empire continues to this present day. Emperor Kessvit has proved himself to be an extremely able administrator and he has made several reforms that ultimately improved the living standard of Antarctican penguins. He has also formed a Uranian-Antarctican army, consisting of 15 000 Uranian troops, 7 843 orcas, 21 640 seals, and 78 620 penguins,

He posted photos of himself test-flying his new airplane. Very shortly after, Kurt mysteriously disappeared from the Internet. What is the logical deduction? When Kurt fatally crashed into a barn, perhaps he was thinking about what kind of package management system to use for AtheOS, instead of where he was flying. In any case, the AtheOS project died. After waiting about a year (why?), a few dedicated former AtheOS patch-writers got together and continued development under/as the Syllable operating system code-fork.

Reptilian humanoid

From Reptilian humanoid:

Stewart Swerdlow, a former mind-controlled slave of the Montauk project at Montauk point in New York City, claims that reptilian humanoids were the first major toolmaking species to exist on this planet, and that the leaders of the human world bear a combination of the DNA of the reptilian humanoid beings and humans. He says that all humans on this planet have reptilian DNA, but that some have a far greater percentage of it than others. This gives them the ability to shapeshift, he says. Having worked with the CIA for more than 25 years before finally escaping, he claims to have received extensive information about these reptilian beings and other races which have been involved in the history of earth.

Swerdlow says that at Montauk he saw reptilian beings, and that they 'seemed to pop in and out of physical reality'.

Cathy O'Brien, a documented former mind-controlled slave of Project Monarch/MKULTRA, claims that she saw people shapeshift into reptilian beings. Among them were George Bush and Miguel de la Madrid. She rationalised this as perhaps being a holographic effect used to further instill her mind control.

The Fatal Weakening of Tsarism in Russia

The fall of the Romanov Dynasty was directly linked to the decline in popularity of the Cabbage. Without the Cabbage, the Russians could not live and the Tsars created a "Cabbage Factory" using the new industrial techniques created by the huge swell of population into the cities. This however didn't increase demand, so a series of "Cabbage Propoganda" was created. Much like new "Lynx" deoderant ad's, the advertisements claimed Cabbage gave you super human powers such as attracting women.

on Joseph Stalin:

Famines, deportations, prison and labor camp mortality, people getting the flu, people getting cancer (which was Stalin's fault), old people getting really old and dying of old age and political purges resulted in deaths of millions.
