Sorry

Hey Jay, sorry 'bout breaking up the pages with my sig. I didn't realize I had added an extra return in there. Thanks for fixing it » c u t e p e t s r u s « ^T/_C

Not a big deal. Everyone's new once. --Jay (Gobble) 05:26, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Cool » c u t e p e t s r u s «

^T/_C 01:10, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey Jay- while I'm here I just thought I would ask you this: (I would just wait for it to be partrolled, but I just wanted to check it with you) is my question of the day on my user page too much like a real STUFF or is it ok? » c u t e p e t s r u s «

^T/_C 23:27, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

My problem with it isn't STUFF related; it is strongly encouraged on this Wiki not to encourage other people to edit your own User page for any reason (we had a long and bloody fight over this when it came to "Guestbooks".) --Jay (Gobble) 23:38, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Ok, so would it be fine if I moved it over to my talk page? » c u t e p e t s r u s «

^T/_C 23:51, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't have a problem with that myself, but I don't know how other sysops will view it (though I doubt they'll have a problem with it; many users have mini-"contests" expecting answers on their talk pages). --Jay (Gobble) 23:52, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Cool, well see what happens. It's still a possibly that nobody will respond and I'll take it off. » c u t e p e t s r u s «

Sig issue

Hey, I had the same thing happen when the three ~'s didn't become a sig. Odd, any idea why? - Qermaq - (^T/C) 21:40, 8 May 2006 (UTC) (Just to try it here: - Qermaq - (^T/C) )

This is a known limitation of the autocolumn feature. It will be fixed when we upgrade to MediaWiki 1.6. Coincidentally, I have already spent part of this afternoon working on debugging it. — It's dot com 21:54, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Ah, thanks. - Qermaq - (^T/C)

22:03, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

That a splains that. --Jay (Gobble) 22:19, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

About "japanese cartoon"...

Hi, Jay. I wanted to make a comment about the NES endings easter egg, particularly the Metroid ending, and it didn't seem appropriate to bring it up in the cartoon discussion (plus it wouldn't make sense to anyone besides us). Since you don't have a listed e-mail, I'll bring it up here. The screen that it shows, "You Fulfiled Your Mission", et. al., either features a Samus Aran in her normal suit or, if you enter a certain code (the famed JUSTIN BAILEY ------ ------ code, for example), a suitless Samus, as it shows in this instance. VGMuseum shows both variants as an animated gif. Both variants do not show in the same ending, you either get the normal variant or the suitless variant if you put in a suitable code. It is the following screen which is then based upon time, and that screen does not feature any sort of text. When the game is completed under 3 hours, that screen also shows Samus in a red suit...whereas if Samus is suitless, she will always be seen in a green suit on the first screen.

Anyway, I just felt like mentioning it. By the time you read this, I will probably have edited the page again and I wanted to explain the reasoning behind it instead of it potentially resulting in a siutation where we are constantly changing each others' edits. Otherwise...keep up the good work with editing the wiki and I'll do likewise. -- Frickinsellout 16:27, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

P.S. You are free to make this entry DELETED shortly after you read this, since it may not be the sort of thing necessarily to have in your archives. :)

CGNU fight song

Hey Jay. I was wondering if you could upload the rest of the song for the three clefs. So can you upload the rest of the song, please? Also, I think that maybe it could then be placed in the CGNU page.--H *B a d 22:53, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

I don't think that's necessary. I was trying to illustrate a point; a point I feel has been made and I'd just as soon delete what I already have if there are no objections. And if we have to transcribe the CGNU song, what about The Cheat is Not Dead? What about the Homestar Runner Theme Song? What about every song except MAYBE the raps? Seems rather unnecessary. --Jay (Gobble) 23:48, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Edit

The edit on the Admin thing. I was going to revert it, but it really just creeped me out.--H*bad 01:20, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't matter as long as someone reverts it. Heck, I only didn't revert it because Qermaq got to it first. --Jay (Gobble) 01:20, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I almost puked.--H*bad 01:22, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

It wasn't that bad. --Jay (Gobble) 01:23, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, thats really just me. I don't want to say anymore.--H*bad 01:25, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Inappropriate? Absolutely no argument. Vandalism? Of course. But come on, it was just some really vague sexual references. Sexuality is a normal human concept. --Jay (Gobble) 01:26, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I would agree. The vandalism was inappropriate, but the subject matter would be considered appropriate for adults (outside the workplace and other similar areas) by society. I've seen more graphic stuff on the TV. - Qermaq - (^T/C)

01:39, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, almost everyone over, like, 11 or 12 has seen stuff like that. AlliterativeAssociate 01:45, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Which is a problem in our society. The reason why I might have gotten sick, was because of that I have been raised without it.--H*bad 01:47, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

That is true - we do need to be cautious here because of the kids who have not (we are not in a position to educate young minds in how to deal with that, that's a parent's job) and in recognition that there are a few folks here and there who happen to simply have an aversion to anything in this particular theme. Out of respect to them, we need to be diligent. - Qermaq - (^T/C)

01:53, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I am personally of the persuasion that vague sexual references aren't damaging to children at all and that some people blow them way out of proportion, but that said, I never said it wasn't inappropriate or vandalism. --Jay (Gobble) 01:55, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I was going to revert it as well but Qermaq beat me to it. It's Okay to feel uncomfortable when seeing that kind of thing, H*bad. But then again that may be what the vandal was trying to do....Hmm... --Dacheatbot · Communicate 02:14, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

SB answering emails

Well, he answered mine. HOOWAY!! --Homfrog 23:28, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, yeah, rub it in. --Jay (Gobble) 23:46, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

I wish Strong Bad would answer my emails.(All 50 of them) -H *B a d 20:06, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Lucky! But we shouldn't feel bad because you do hear more people saying randomly "he answered my e-mail" more than just in the middle of something "he didn't answer my e-mail" matt said they get anywhere from 2,000 e-mails a day, which are pretty slim chances. » c u t e p e t s r u s «

^T/_C 02:38, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Toot sweet

Sorry about just deleting that fun fact. I guess I should have STUFF'D it, but it seemed really obvious to me at the time. I tried to figure out which I should do from the "Help" page but it seemed deliberately vague. Just so you know, STUFFing was my next step if it showed on the original article again; I wouldn't have repeatedly deleted it. Point7Q 04:44, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Not a huge deal; I just felt like circumventing the problem before there was one. I can see how someone unfamiliar with French might not realize the origin of the phrase. --Jay (Gobble) 05:49, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

main page 15

Oh, i know why it doesnt work! Im using Firefox, i tested it in IE and it didnt work, so thats why. x66x66 1:58 7/18/06

Hm... that could be it. --Jay (Gobble) 18:44, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Spelling of "Gip"

Hi,

Please see http://www.answers.com/topic/gyp (and to be fair also see http://www.answers.com/topic/gip)

Will you allow my edit of theme song to stick now?

Thanks 198.49.180.40 00:20, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

I see your comment in the themesong page. Why don't you note that what SB typed is a mis-spelling? Other transcripts do that. "Gyp" is a slur, related to Gypsies' reputation as thieves. That's why "gyp" is the correct spelling. 198.49.180.40 00:24, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

You do realise that the first link you gave [1] says that it's also spelled "gipped"? Loafing

00:41, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Sure. But the second [2] doesn't say anything about it (this meaning). "Gip" is obviously not considered a canonical spelling of this particular term by the American Heritage Dictionary, but variant instead. Why don't we add it to the transcript with the note about SB's variant spelling? 198.49.180.40 00:50, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

That first link you gave is GIP in all caps. Did you see this article [3]? Variants are not misspellings, and are not really important to note. So makey outy 01:01, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

It is also questionable that "gyp" really is a slur (see the Wiktionary, though as we discovered earlier today, "gip" is actually not present there for some reason.) We had this discussion earlier today. At any rate, Strong Bad actually types the word "gipped", and according to our Manual of Style, what Strong Bad types is what we type, whether misspelled, nonsensical, or contrary to what he actually says (though in that last case, we also note what he actually says.) --Jay (Gobble) 00:46, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

That's why I didn't put the slur under "Fun Facts" - I know lots of people would howl about it. 198.49.180.40 00:50, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[It's clear]. Maybe not to lots of people in general, especially Americans, but it's not imaginary. 198.49.180.40 00:52, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Even if we accept it, why does it matter to the topic at hand? Many dictionaries accept "gip" as a viable alternative. --Jay (Gobble) 00:57, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Citations, please? 198.49.180.40 01:03, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Why? I believe it's notable. Want me to find examples of SBEmail transcripts where similar things were noted? I'm only trying to note the spelling issue, not the slurring issue. That doens't belong in the transcript, but instead in Trivia or something. 198.49.180.40 01:06, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[4] [5] [6] --Jay (Gobble) 01:07, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

If you can find one where it's just a variant and not an actual misspelling, then it would be a valid precedent. So makey outy 01:09, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

If you can find one where it's just a variant and not an actual misspelling, then I will happily remove it there too, 'cause I really don't think variants are notable. --phlip ^T_C 01:11, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

This section should really be moved to Talk:theme song. Loafing 01:33, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Comedy Stylings

Re: this - what's abnormal about the construction "comedy stylings"? - Qermaq - (^T/C) 02:51, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

It's certainly not something I hear on anything remotely resembling a normal basis. And it certainly sounds more awkward than "headbrow style" (given what it's representing; a hair style) and "With the e-mail style, get it over with!", both of which are currently on the "Style" page. --Jay (Gobble) 07:22, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Hmm. I was under the impression that the page was not for citing usage of "style" when it's a common phrase in American English. Not that it's necessarily authoritative, a GoogleFight between the examples we've cited proves interesting. Fact is, there's a LOT of examples of this phrase's usage. - Qermaq - (^T/C)

09:12, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

That's got nothing to do with the odd usage of "stylings" and more to do with the usage of the word "headbrow". Like I said before, it represents a hair style. --Jay (Gobble) 15:58, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Same age

You're the same age as me, Jay. Were you born in 1982? That's the year I was born. Is your real name Michaell Jay Jiminez? I remember a Michaell Jiminez from school. —Brian Barbera 00:08, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I was born in 1982, but, no, my name isn't Michael which whatever. My real name can be found via information on my user page, but it's not ON my user page. And that's all I'm saying about that. --Jay (Gobble) 03:02, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

My revert

Hey, Jay, just wanted to let you know I've been talking to Lapper on IRC and he is almost done with the whole transcript (he's apparently not doing it in installments like I do, but getting it all done at once). That's why I reverted back to the inprogress tag. Just wanted to clarify. Heimstern Läufer 01:15, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, okay, but an hour with no updates does look suspiciously like an abandoned transcript... I mean, you can understand why I removed it, right? --Jay (Gobble) 01:19, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Absolutely. Would have thought of the same thing if I hadn't been in IRC to check up on it. Heimstern Läufer

01:27, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

20X6 Homsar??

Does Homsar really have a 20X6 counerpart? I can't find it on the characters page... ^Sam_Fisher _{(Come in, Lambert.)} 17:26, 24 August 2006

Jay only said that he's not the only one to have no 20X6 counterpart. Loafing

21:34, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

EDIT CONFLICT'D!! (Ow! My response! But I'm saying it anyway.) You misunderstood. My reasoning was this:

If you say "Homsar is the only main character without an Old-Timey counterpart", without mentioning 20X6, then the statement is true.
If you say "Homsar is the only main character without a 20X6 counterpart", without mentioning Old-Timey, then the statement is false (Bubs, Strong Mad, Strong Sad, The King of Town, and The Poopsmith also have no 20X6 counterparts, and the counterparts of Marzipan and The Cheat have yet to actually do anything. Even The Fort Wayne Locomotive got an appearance in a 'toon.)

Thus, the fact as written was misleading and added an unnecessary complication. --Jay (Gobble) 21:36, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Subtitles

Hey Jay. We've now got a dedicated subtitles page. Organization is still a bit chaotic, but we're getting there. We've defined the new format now, and put a downloadable testing environment online. The new format is backwards compatible, so you won't have to re-do everything just yet. And if you put your subtitles on the wiki, then I'm sure they'll get fixed "magically" ;-) Loafing 23:58, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Sleep!

Go To Bed!! ;-) Loafing 12:09, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Secret Page

THe link really is dead. It now gives a 404.

Someone needs to read the top of the very page they edited... --Jay (Gobble) 22:09, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Variations

Hey Jay. I'm wondering what led to this group of edits. The reason I ask is because you removed so much information from each page, and I was trying to find either where that information was already listed on each page or the discussion about why it shouldn't be listed at all. Cheers! — It's dot com 15:48, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

The section was too poorly-defined and many users were adding random Nicknames to the lists. Some of them may yet be notable, but we need to be consistent about what the category contains. --Jay (Gobble) 16:21, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

We have our first winner!

Congratulations on winning!

NOTE: I do use this certificate for other things. -- Super Martyo boing! 16:29, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about the transcript

I jumped the gun and tried to finish off the "retirement B" transcript before you did. I was just trying to help, but I can see why it would be a nuisance. You did a much better job than I could have. I imagine more annoying things happen all the time , but I just wanted to say that I've learned my lesson. Sorry!--Bobo the King 08:29, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

No, no, I may have over-reacted, but the #1 annoyance when trying to write a transcript is edit conflicts. It's why I put the "In progrss" tag on the transcript twice. --Jay (Gobble) 08:32, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

This reminds me of my high school history teacher who liked to interpret velvet "do not cross" ropes as a suggestion rather than a rule. She has photos of her at the Smithsonian Museum doing things like sitting on stools used for Civil Rights sit-ins. I'm amazed she hasn't been arrested yet. Anyway, the important thing is that we have an awesome transcript already and no permanent harm was done. Sorry again!--Bobo the King 08:53, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

pregnancy

Thx for moving it to Pregnancy to avoid further confusion. I saw it in my GD web clips and got really excited because I thought a new SBEmail was out. --Y2K () 22:14, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry on Let us give TANKS!

Sorry my computer said that those words needed spaces. - Austio talk 23:39, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Ninja Gaiden

Even though, as you noticed, Ninja Gaiden isn't the right game this time, I discovered the reference in Under Construction about a day after I used it for a challenge. Although I was kicking myself for not making the trivia question ask about that toon, I was consoled by the fact that it's ten times more fun to watch Under Construction after having seen the Ninja Gaiden intro. Keep on tranglin', Trey56 06:50, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Hey, question!!

About how big is the everybody everybody poster. I might buy it. Is it worth it? TheYellowDart—(t/c)

The poster is 36" wide by 24" high. See HRStore:posters.html. -- Tom 03:56, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Wouldn't do much good to ask me anyway - it's actually not in my current apartment! (Or, if it is, I can't find it for the life of me...) I think my mother took all my posters when I moved; no idea what she did with them, as her interests don't exactly intersect with mine much. --Jay (Gobble) 23:03, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Jaycemberween, Jay?

Hats off to you, my doge. I got a good chuckle out of that. --ISlayedTheKerrek 18:30, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

My bad edit

Sorry about that "retirement: goofs" edit. I wasn't thinking properly. Thanks for reverting it! (After I hit the "save page" button, I was like, "wait a sec..." but didn't revert it in time.) kai lyn 04:26, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Help out

Hey, I'm thinking about creating a new page, but I don't know what to call it and I don't know all of its info. The page will be about interuppted names Strong Bad usually starts sounding out before getting interrupted by someone. Such as in bottom 10: He says, "and the number one spot in my bottom 10 is... Th--" and then gets interrupted. Please help out. I am sending this to all sysops. --TheYellowDart—(t/c)

Wow. Seriously, wow. I was, uh, thinking about that very running gag earlier today. We have the "R" in routine, the "Th" you mentioned, whatever Adam West would have said in long pants... As for a name... Partial-Word Interruptions? --Jay (Gobble) 19:18, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Hey, thanks. I'll keep working at it. --TheYellowDart—(t/c)

You are kinda reaching the point of spamming, though. Tone it down a bit. People who check Recent Changes will see it, trust me. --Jay (Gobble) 19:26, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Apologies???

As a reply to Subtitles talk:sbemail167/en, there was only one easter egg to subtitle. And besides, I'd still be in check, what with being the subtitle creator for three consecutive SBEmails (I don't want to brag any more nor do I want to in the first place) before giving it off to Shwoo because she wanted to do a sub script. And anyway, my computer gets sluggish as well. --Addict 2006 23:09, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

My apologies were because the "pageinprogress" template was still on the page, but because my computer shut itself down, I got no opportunities to remove it. --Jay (Gobble) 23:22, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

In Regards to SB's mouth in Record Book

Even in the old animations, whenever SB makes an o sound, including the ou sound, his mouth turns round. It did when he said round, which has the same vowel sound as mouth. Yet when he said mouth in the email, his mouth did not turn round as it was supposed to. This is especially noteworthy as he was contesting his mouth being rectangular all the time when the goof was made.

It's not consistent enough to call it a "Goof" though. --Jay (Gobble) 06:49, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Arguments

I'm not clear as to what just went on/is going on between Has Matt? and Bluebry_muffn , but I know this: The wiki froze on me temporarily. The rest of the internet worked fine, but the wiki was suddenly loaded down. The only thing going on was these two and their argument about... what exactly? I'd say something to them, but I'm afraid of overstepping my lack of authority. So, I decided to bring it to the attention of the sysop with the most recent edit, thereby indicating your current presence. If I'm overreacting, let me know and I'll shut up. - Point7Q 03:46, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Today's April Fools Day, silly! Also, the wiki was temporarily down. I dunno why, but it was. Bluebry 03:48, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

The point of an edit

Hey, Jay. While I don't argue substantially with your edit here, I'd love if you added your two cents in the talk page you referenced, rather than communicate solely through the summary. Hope to see your input. - Qermaq - (^T/C) 03:26, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

this edit summary

There's no reason to get upset. Had you explained that the first time, i wouldn't have reverted you. Had you explained it the second time, i wouldn't have reverted you again. You did not, however, explain this, and i had no reason to think that you were correct. Now that you have explained this, i understand. Please try to explain things like this in the future, rather than simply reverting me with no explanation, ok? Crapfully yours, — Defender1031*Talk 20:15, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

I gave an explanation; I'd have figured checking the other DVD pages to see that this was what was done with them would have been obvious, personally. Sorry I yelled, but I hate edit wars, especially over an established standard. --Jay (Gobble) 20:16, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

I too hate edit wars, and if i had been aware that it was an established standard, you can bet i would have left it. I don't mind it being caps like that, really i don't. But I DO mind inconsistency. Yes, the obvious this would have been to check the other pages, and I admit that it was probably stupid not to, but people aren't always smart. As such, I believe patience is required.

this edit summary

It wasn't just "for a personal reason;" it was specifically for surgery. Are there actually other widely-known cases of talk show hosts who have done that exact thing? If there are, I will politely step down, but I wish you hadn't used sarcasm to explain your deletion; that's something I really don't like to see on this site.

Surgery is almost universal in modern society. Am I to believe that Letterman is the only talk-show host ever that took an absence due to it? I'm aware of small-time radio talk show hosts getting temporary replacements for every reason under the sun; surely not as widely-known as Letterman, but who said it had to be a widely-known case? And I'm sarcastic a lot; I'm sorry if it seemed abrasive but it wasn't meant to be. --Jay (Gobble) 23:57, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

You left out a semicolon after the Overanalysis of Homsar's Speech Pattern thing. I couldn't fix it 'cause your page is protected. Homestar-Winner (talk) 12:50, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

You can't access The Thnikkamaaaaan! (Yeah, shut up, Wiki!)

So, uh, WHY can I not access The Thnikkaman or its Talk page? Notably, I can access The Thnikkaman through its history, but there doesn't seem to be anything unusual there. --Jay (Gobble) 17:20, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

What is ESPECIALLY weird is that the error page I'm brought to has "thnikkaman" (but not "THE thnikkaman" as is the page's name) in its URL. What the pfargtl? Did someone higher up on the chain than me have something to do with this? --Jay (Gobble) 17:28, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

It's really frustrating that you're trying to get around the "This is real" message. All it does is send me more database errors. The message seems completely self-explanatory to me: "There is an error accessing the The Thnikkaman page. The page will be unavailable until the error can be resolved. Thanks for your patience." In other words, we're aware of the problem, we've taken steps to fix it, so keep your pants on until we do and stop messing around in the system. — It's dot com 18:02, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Are you serious? You know better than that. You got the pretty error message telling everyone to be patient. When you went around the error, you got a more severe database error. Several times. Instead of posting on the wiki about a temporary problem, you should log on to IRC and ask someone whether we're aware of it. — It's dot com 19:03, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Fonts

Regarding this, I did put some thought into where to list that, and was left in doubt with my decision. The reason I listed it under "Not on the Site" was because the Flash file itself isn't hosted at homestarrunner.com. Anyway, I'm certainly willing to accept that, for the moment, the Advertisement is "on the site", but I'm not sold on the idea that it's a Short. TBC themselves haven't categorized it, as far as I can tell. But, anyway, for what it's worth I have no problem leaving it listed where it is for now. I will, however, be keeping an eye on it to make sure we correctly document it if/when it gets categorized, or if/when it gets removed from the site. OptimisticFool 04:44, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

-Dear Jay,
+*Hi, Jay.  I wanted to make a comment about the NES endings easter egg, particularly the Metroid ending, and it didn't seem appropriate to bring it up in the cartoon discussion (plus it wouldn't make sense to anyone besides us).  Since you don't have a listed e-mail, I'll bring it up here.  The screen that it shows, "You Fulfiled Your Mission", et. al., either features a Samus Aran in her normal suit or, if you enter a certain code (the famed JUSTIN BAILEY ------ ------ code, for example), a suitless Samus, as it shows in this instance.  VGMuseum shows both variants as an animated gif.  Both variants do not show in the same ending, you either get the normal variant or the suitless variant if you put in a suitable code.  It is the following screen which is then based upon time, and that screen does not feature any sort of text.  When the game is completed under 3 hours, that screen also shows Samus in a red suit...whereas if Samus is suitless, she will always be seen in a green suit on the first screen.<br><br>Anyway, I just felt like mentioning it.  By the time you read this, I will probably have edited the page again and I wanted to explain the reasoning behind it instead of it potentially resulting in a siutation where we are constantly changing each others' edits.  Otherwise...keep up the good work with editing the wiki and I'll do likewise. -- [[User:Frickinsellout|Frickinsellout]] 16:27, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

+Hi,
-The reason "SPARE!" is a phrase instead of a word is because it has punctuation (the exclamation mark) as part of it.  Words don't come with any punctuation attached to them, which is why I thought it should be referred to as a phrase as opposed to a word.  Just for the sake of backing up my argument, I'd like to say that it IS possible for a phrase to consist of just one word.
+Please see http://www.answers.com/topic/gyp (and to be fair also see http://www.answers.com/topic/gip)

+:::Sure. But the second [http://www.answers.com/topic/gip] doesn't say anything about it (this meaning). "Gip" is obviously not considered a canonical spelling of this particular term by the American Heritage Dictionary, but variant instead. Why don't we add it to the transcript with the note about SB's variant spelling? [[User:198.49.180.40|198.49.180.40]] 00:50, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

+::: It is also questionable that "gyp" really is a slur (see the [[Wiktionary:Gyp|Wiktionary]], though as we discovered earlier today, "gip" is actually not present there for some reason.) We had this discussion earlier today. At any rate, '''Strong Bad actually types the word "gipped"''', and according to our [[HRWiki:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]], what Strong Bad types is what we type, whether misspelled, nonsensical, or contrary to what he actually says (though in that last case, we also note what he actually says.) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:46, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

No mention is made of the numerous "other" apperances of the other items at the sale. Just thought I'd explain my thinking. -- [[User:tomstiff|tomstiff]] 17:36, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
+== Arguments ==
-: But it implies that the keg first appeared in helium, when [[A Jumping Jack Contest]] far precedes it. No other mentions are made of the other items because they're either extremely common (like Marzipan's Answering Machine) or their first appearance in an email happened to be their first appearance anyway. And anyway, I've cut it down to "and other places", which doesn't take up a lot of space. --[[User:Jay|<span style = "color: #9090FF">''Jay''</span>]] [[User talk:Jay|<span style = "color: #006030"><small>(Talk)</small></span>]] 17:39, 2 May 2005 (UTC)

-I don't know whether it makes a difference, but the classes of blockquote are "email" and "tandy email". There are no special definitions for "compy" and "lappy". I'm sure the software just ignores the extra words, so no big deal.
+== Fonts ==
-You wondered about the "short" version: All it does is make the box a certain width for really brief emails, like "[[i she be]]". That way, Strong Bad's head shows a little more.
+Regarding [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Fonts_By_Toon&curid=40442&diff=556480&oldid=556446 this], I did put some thought into where to list that, and was left in doubt with my decision.  The reason I listed it under "Not on the Site" was because the Flash file itself isn't hosted at homestarrunner.com.  Anyway, I'm certainly willing to accept that, for the moment, the Advertisement ''is'' "on the site", but I'm not sold on the idea that it's a Short.  TBC themselves haven't categorized it, as far as I can tell.  But, anyway, for what it's worth I have no problem leaving it listed where it is for now.  I will, however, be keeping an eye on it to make sure we correctly document it if/when it gets categorized, or if/when it gets removed from the site.  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 04:44, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
-You mentioned having Homestar's head for a couple of them. I also think this is a good idea. In the meantime, I took SB's head out where it didn't belong, for example in "[[anything]]".

-: I WAS aware of the non-difference that "compy" and "lappy" made, but I put them in on the off chance that we actually DO something with them later (we may not, but since it didn't affect anything, I figured that it didn't hurt.) Should we ever change our minds that way, it's better to put them in now than later. And, really, all it really affected was me typing six extra characters per email (counting the space.)

-******* Just because the majority accepts it doesn't make it true. And contesting a Fact is perfectly legitimate. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:04, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-******** I'll admit the case for the fact is circumstantial, but&mdash;I'll say once more&mdash;circumstantial ''does not equal'' false. I know I'm not going to convince you to change your mind on this, just as I know you won't change the minds of all those who voted to accept (I myself am closer to the middle).

-*I can give a few examples. Beverly Sportsinterviews ring a bell? That couldn't have been a legitimate reference to Beverly Cleary, yet it was accepted. The "Silent J" fun fact was not only coincidental, but it was a "could be" fun fact, and that was accepted. And of course, even though this hasn't been verdicted yet, the Chris Latta reference STUFF I put up, which, while not coincidental, is being accepted because everyone is missing the point of the STUFF, meaning I don't think it's a direct reference to Latta. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 19:21, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-** I disagree about Beverly Cleary/Sportsinterviews. I don't see how "Silent J" could NOT be referring to "Jay and Silent Bob" (despite my name, I don't watch it, but it fits. Especially given SB's comment.) And let me check the details of the Chris Latta thing. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:23, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-*** As for the Chris Latta name, you can go ahead and drop Latta's name but the connection to Cobra Commander fits like a glove, ESPECIALLY given the nature of The Cheat Commandos. "Change of Pace" is unconnected - it's a joke that's been done before in things that have nothing to do with Family Guy, and if anything, the coincidental timing makes me think it's LESS likely to be the case - they may have been working on the email while Family Guy was on. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:32, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-****Still, Jay, if 16 people voted to accept it, you should just let it slide. There's a lot worse crap on the wiki than that. --[[User:ISlayedTheKerrek|ISlayedTheKerrek]] 03:54, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

-You also removed the section from StrongBadZone that details how to hear the "BACK OFF BABY" sequence by opening the right-click Flash menu after Vector Strong Bad says "YOUR HEAD A SPLODE". You claim that it doesn't work, but it ''does'' work for me, and apparently for some other people too. I think that we should leave it up there with a modification that it works for some people. Perhaps we should determine what systems it works on? I would like to hear your thoughts on this.

-Hey there, I have a quick question, and I've seen you a lot around the wiki, so I decided to try asking you. For the [[no loafing]] email, there is a fun fact in the goofs section, "Strong Bad says "the kinds that have like whales or sunsets or windsurfers on em," but does not type the word "like".", which I think shouldn't be there because Strong Bad does that regularly. I'[m not exactly sure the format and things to add a new fun fact to the STUFF page, and I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to, so if you could add taht one, taht'd be great.

First, on the STUFF page, if you're seeing the verdict then it's because you're already on the index. If you ''do'' happen to be on a subpage, it's because there's an open fact for the same toon, and in that case you can click the link there. Second, the verdict template is actually designed to end up on a toon's talk page, where a link back to the STUFF index is unnecessary and undesirable. Thanks. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 06:34, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-: Only that last point sways me, though it IS a fair one - the very reason I put it on was because I DID end up on a subpage that only had one VERDICT'd fact and found no link when I wanted to go to the main STUFF page. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:38, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-:: I have a hunch you arrived at the page in that manner because you were patrolling edits... something the everyday user isn't likely to be doing. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 06:44, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-::: True, but then there is the subject of typos. Someone makes a typo, another user corrects it, and there's no convenient link back. I see where you're coming from, but it seems less consistent to have the link on some facts and not on others, even if there IS a pattern to it. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:46, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-::: Okay, fine. For right now, I'll change it back. But the minute someone else notices and complins about it, and they DIDN'T get there from the "Recent changes" page, I'm going to put the link straight back if some other sysop doesn't. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:51, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-::::I can see how someone might end up there by fixing a typo, but these cases would be relatively rare. In that instance, one should just press Back twice in his or her browser. (That is, an open STUFF fact is edited often, and the link back to the index is quite a convenient tool because it gets used with almost every edit. On the other hand, a closed fact ''might'' be corrected for a typo ''once'', if at all.) &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 07:10, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-== Flagrant Error ==
-Come on, it's appeared 3 times. Why do you keep reverting my edits? --[[User:ColorPrinter|ColorPrinter]] 15:59, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-: Inside jokes are usually things that are obscure, there's no page for it, and it's actually appeared '''four''' times. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:00, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-: Well, it should have a page...--[[User:ColorPrinter|ColorPrinter]] 16:01, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-:: Yes, but I think it should go on [[:Category:Running Gags|Running Gags]]. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:04, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-::Okay. Sorry I got steamed. But where should I put the link to the page?--[[User:ColorPrinter|ColorPrinter]] 16:05, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-:: It's all right. I've had a tendency to be a little more blunt than usual lately myself. Adding <nowiki>[[Category:Running Gags]]</nowiki> to any page would add it to the appropriate Category. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:07, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
-== Deletion template ==
-As per your idea, I made a deletion template for talk pages <nowiki>{{talktobedeleted}}</nowiki>. This can go on talk pages when the article is going to be deleted. You like? {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 07:15, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:Works for me. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:20, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-== Gimme a Reason, or CUT IT OUT! ==
-Look, I know that some facts, references and other things that people put up are sometimes wrong. I know that. But I noticed something in [[other days]] that has merit, and I'd like to share it with other people. Let me refresh you memory. It was about the collections agency letter. So, WHY do you think it shouldn't be there? I want a real answer, otherwise you can leave it alone and let it be. Be prompt.
-: Why do you think it should? There's absolutely no connection, besides a reference to a DIFFERENT "collections agency". Put it on [[STUFF]] if you think it's really notable. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:53, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:Did you see what I said on [[Talk:other days]]? {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 19:56, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::Okay, Dracula, editing other users' comments on Talk pages is NOT cool. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 20:03, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:I did that? Oops. I thought you did that, seeing as it's your page. Sorry bout that one. I was wondering why my original post didn't change. Sorry Coder, and yes, I saw what you wrote, AFTER I posted this...
-Maybe I shouldn't have been so blunt, but it upsets me to see what I think is relevant just trashed. If you think it needs to be STUFF'd, how do I do that?
-And DON'T call me Dracula, kay?--[[User:TaranchulaVamp15|TaranchulaVamp15]]
-:There are instructions on the [[STUFF]] page. And I thought you removed Aurora's comment on purpose, which is why I got sarcastic with you. Sorry about that. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 20:10, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:Here, gave you a hand. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 20:16, 13 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-== Sorry ==
-Sorry, I'll delete it right now. How do you delete an artical?
-: It's already been done now. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:15, 23 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-One question, why do you have such a grudge against the page? The reason I made it in first place is because there's too much information on the shirt to put it on the Homestar page.
-: I beg to differ. I feel that most of the information either belongs there, or isn't significant enough. Besides, Homestar wears the Star Shirt in almost every single toon. Do we have a page for Marzipan's dress? Or Strong Mad's singlet? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:25, 23 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-== DVD ==
-Hey Jay, I couldn't tell if by "tomorrow" you meant Wednesday or Thursday, but I'm guessing Wednesday. I should get mine Thursday according to this. I think we should divide up the work so there's not so much to do. You can contact me at [mailto:it-s_dot_com@hotmail.com it-s_dot_com@hotmail.com] once the wiki goes 509. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:31, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:I could also transcribe ''some'' stuff this weekend. [mailto:bazookajoe1337@gmail.com bazookajoe1337@gmail.com]. Or find me on IRC. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 05:36, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::Won't the IRC go down, too? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
-:::No. The IRC channel is registered on FreeNode's IRC server. IRC is completely seperate from this website. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 05:41, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::::Well, that's certainly good to know. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:43, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::::: Wednesday (today), BTW. When do you expect the Wiki to die? It's already lasted longer than last month. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 13:34, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::::: Never mind; I saw Tom's comment on that other page. If I get the DVD before the Wiki dies, and we're all around, we can discuss it here. Else, I'll e-mail you. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 13:37, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::::::Cool. I figured we could make a list of the commentaries/bonus features and then divide them amongst at least the three of us. That way the load is shared but we're not inadvertently duplicating each other's work. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 13:59, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:::::::I am getting my DVD soon, can I help?  {{User:Rogue Leader.sig}}
-::::::::I just checked my tracking info again, and they've updated it with a new date... It's in town now and on the truck for delivery! Yay! &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 15:56, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::::::::Curses, mine is probably coming on Friday.  Stupid, freaking Fedex two day shiping that I thought was way to expensive.  {{User:Rogue Leader.sig}}
-: I already have it and have been watching various commentaries and bonus features. Nothing transcribed yet. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:02, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:: Would you make a list of the commentaries and bonus stuff that need to be transcribed. Then we can divide up the list. (Tom predicted the wiki would go 509'd at noon, and currently it's 12:06 ET, so we're runnin' on empty here.) &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:06, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-So far, I've found commentaries on every email I've checked, but I haven't checked all of them (thirty emails if all of them have them).
-Then we have:
-* Family Resemblance
-* Real-Life Emails
-* Sample of Style Too
-* Sample of Style Too bloopers
-* Puppets on the Road
-* Video for It's Like It Was Meant to Be (the lyrics are the same as on the CD)
-* Video for Grumblecakes (this one has extra lyrics)
-* Karaoke for Because It's Midnite (with Stinkoman in the alternate audio)
-* Karaoke for Rock Opera (with Matt Chapman as every character and himself in the alternate audio)
-* The FBI warning, the opening screen, and the "too long" animation (the Bonus Stuff animations are the same as on the first three discs).
-That's all I've seen. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:11, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:Okay, which 8&ndash;10 commentaries do you prefer doing? Then I'll choose. I'll also do the bloopers and "Puppets on the Road". &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
-:How about the first set of ten, along with Family Resemblance and Stinkoman's Rock Opera. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:19, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:I'll take a few commentaries. Perhaps the middle 10, but I don't think I will be able to do them all this weekend. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 16:27, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::I'll start at the end. If I get all of <s>that</s> those 10 done, I'll email you, Joe, and see how you're doyng. I mean doing. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:35, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:::<nowiki>*</nowiki>shudder* &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 16:36, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::::Corrected my message above. Anybody want "Sample of Style Too" or "Real-Life Emails". If not, I volunteer. You've got my email address if you need it (note the crazy hyphens and underscores): it-s_dot_com@hotmail.com &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
-::::: I kinda wanted to do RLE too, but it's okay if you want to do it. I was just trying to leave some spots open. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:43, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-:::::: Yeah, me too... It was hard not to say in my first message above, "Well, I'll take care of all this." How 'bout you email me on, oh, Friday, and we'll see how each of us is doing. (I resisted it that time.) &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:48, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::::::: Sure, I'll try to remember. Wow, almost noon here and the Wiki's still up... --{{User:Jay/sig}} 16:52, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-: I actually forgot one hidden item: Outtakes from Strong Bad vs. Little Girl (although, rather than "outtakes," it seems to be a totally new cartoon. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:29, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-::It's here! Yay! &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:09, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
-== Your comments ==
-They're not your comments. They belong to the wiki. That's why we don't sign them. If you need to see the scene to believe it, look [http://www.noiseoff.org/media/man.loves.a.woman.rm here]. Careful, they talk about S-E-X in the clip. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:46, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-: I don't want a movie clip. I'm not talking about a movie clip. And you distorted the comment (admittedly, I provided the wrong link that time) to something it wasn't meant to be. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 05:48, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-: Your own rules: ''You may revise or merge arguments, as long as the substance of the argument(s) does not change.'' --{{User:Jay/sig}} 05:50, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::Right. The substance was your link, which I did not change. If you mean that I removed it at first, that was due to an edit conflict, and I was in the process of putting it back when I was edit conflict'd again.
-::: No, I mean that you changed the wording of the words around the link to make it imply as though the siren was YOUR argument rather than mine. (Of course, it would have helped if I had the right link that time.) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 05:56, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::The fact that it's a movie clip is inconsequential. The car alarm is typical. The alarms match. I've heard it a million times myself. Like I said, if I have to, I'll go to an electronics store and record it myself, but that's unnecessary, because I would only come up with the same thing I already have. The bottom line is, it's a valid real-world reference. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:53, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::: But I have a movie clip of a real-world siren, that clearly matches two of the sounds Homestar makes ''and'' comes close to matching another. And I'm searching through more sound clips to find the fourth. And that makes more sense in context. Shouldn't that trump something that does not make sense in context, and for which the only proof you have is a movie clip? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 05:54, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:::: ''Listen to it.'' It speaks for itself. If you can't hear that they're nearly identical, then I'm not going to keep arguing with you. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:58, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:::: And it makes perfect sense for Mike and Matt to stick in a car alarm reference when an alarm sound is called for. That's the joke. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:59, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::::: Sigh. We're getting nowhere this way. Yes, I admit that your link (which is NOT a real car alarm, no matter how you slice it) sounds similar. Can you admit that my police siren sounds similar? Look, I live near the highway, I hear moving cars that make noises similar to Homestar's sounds (multiple sounds per car sometimes) all the time. I really doubt so many people are leaving their car alarm running while they drive. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:02, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:::::: How is it not a real car alarm? Because it was featured in a movie? That's just the first place I found it, but it matches exactly what I was expecting to find when I was searching for it. There aren't a whole lot of sites out there that have sound clips of car alarms. The point is, I've heard this alarm for years. My brother used to ''have'' this alarm. Why would the moviemakers go reinvent the wheel when they could use something from popular culture that a lot of people would already identify with? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 06:10, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::::::: And I'm supposed to take this on your word, while you totally ignore my word that I live near the highway and hear emergency vehicle sirens all the time. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 06:12, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-== I know this isn't a question, but... ==
-Ok, I know this isn't a question, but I just wanted to say thanx for helping me with some of my questions that I asked on my talk page! Thanx! --{{User:RJMT/sig}} 05:40, 5 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-== Edit conflict ==
-Oops. That's twice in just a few minutes. Sorry. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:09, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:Actually, I never DID hit an edit conflict with you on my side. But somehow, both of our "Fabrosi" comments were added to the talk page near-simultaneously (I suspect you hit the "+" tab while I hit "edit".) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:11, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::Yeah, and then I accidentally recreated an article... by putting a <code><nowiki>{{tobedeleted}}</nowiki></code> tag on it. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
-::: And somewhat ironically, I had just noticed this and was commenting on it, and hit an edit conflict. :p Oh well, I'm not offended by edit conflicts unless I get them multiple times in a row on the same page. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:14, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:::: Oh, man, isn't it annoying when you're trying to reply to a conversation on a popular page and every time you hit Save Page you get a conflict and then you go about figuring out what's changed and where you need to manually merge the pages and so you hit it again and &mdash; oh no! It's another conflict! And somebody's made the point you were working on (only they didn't say it quite as well) so you try to re-merge ''again'' with your additional insights but you get conflicted a third time until it all starts to go around and around and around until you want to put your fist through the screen.... so you finally just hit Select All in the "Your Text" section and paste it over the page and just say "Forget all of this! I'm going to edit this page if it kills me!" and ''maybe'' if you feel like it, you'll do a ''reverse'' manual merge? *out of breath* ...Whew... does that ever happen to you? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:21, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::::: You wouldn't be speaking from experience, would you? ;) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:23, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:::::: I can't remember the exact page or topic, but the very notion gives me the jibblies. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
-Whoa, I guess that happens to you, too. ;) &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:11, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:Does indeed. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 05:12, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-==This Article Has Been Deleted==
-When the evolution page was deleted, it was still in the Ctaegories: Evolution menu. So I decided to add a message that said "This message has been deleted." But now that it's gone for good, I'm not doing it anymore. Also, I regret making that page. I thought it should of been deleted.
-: The only problem was that your cache for the Evolution menu needed updating. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:26, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-==Blocked==
-Jay, Don't you think that giving an infinite ban to a first time spammer was a little bit harsh?  I mean, I hate spam too, but an infinite ban?  I would rather see that infinite ban go to that 9/11 email maker, but that is just me.  {{User:Rogue Leader.sig}}
-:I wasn't the one who blocked the 9/11 emailer. That said, I have a tendency to give indefinite (or at least very long) bans to spammers because your average everyday internet user doesn't spam&mdash;most spammers are fake accounts set up specifically to spam. At least that is my experience. If Tom or JoeyDay disagrees with this policy of mine (and they've never spoken up before) then they can let me know. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 05:21, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-== The (Football) Field ==
-I may have been too hasty. More in a sec... (research in progress) &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
-: It's kind of ambiguous either way, actually. I can definitely see where you're coming from. I'm iffy about whether the change is necessary, though. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:51, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-:: In [[mascot]], it's clearly the same field as [[A Folky Tale]]. But that's definitely not a football field... at least not an ''American'' football field, which is what the name suggests to me. It's definitely an athletic field... is there some reason that we call it a ''football'' field? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:53, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::: Good question, especially since it's not football (of ''any'' real-world sort) that they play on it. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:58, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-::::I noticed something else... although it's from [[different town]], so I don't know if it counts as canon, but the camera pans from Bubs' Concession Stand in the field over to Coach Z in the athletic field. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]]
-:::::I reverted my edits and started a discussion at [[Talk:The Football Field]]. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:07, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)
-== Tired? ==
-Give up alredy, and get a life.
-: Oh, ''GUESS WHO JUST LET ME KNOW THEIR IP ADDRESS RANGE?!?!'' Mwee hee hee... --{{User:Jay/sig}} 07:27, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)
