Dear op it is come to my attention that you have not realized you’re an adult. The word is FUCKER. Don’t worry you can say it. Your mom won’t come out and whack you with a rolled up newspaper, honest.

I am sure you will give this matter full consideration.

Thank you,

Dear Whiny Tool

You are perhaps unaware that several members have politely requested that posters refrain from or censor profanity in their titles, so they enjoy a somewhat more SFW board reading experience. Some people respect that.

Get Bent,  
Q.

I’ve never understood that term, and I bet others don’t either. Please walk us through the bending process, if you don’t mind.

I’d heard (and have always assumed) it was shorthand for directing one to bend over in preparation for a painful and/or humiliating anal penetration of some sort.

Or you just have sex with a squid. (Google it. You might wish you hadn’t.)  
On OP, they should be setting these motherfuckers up for ambush on their way home.

Yup, we’ll give you all the money you want. Get off the ship, go home.  
Only…we’ll make sure you don’t make it home.

We got those wonderful subs that are capable of deploying SEAL teams, we got helicopter gunships, we got all sorts of shit. After the point of departure, we know they’re pirates, we know the hostages are free, and we can hit the bastards before they reach shore. Let’s do it.

Hey sailor, is that 153000 in small unmarked bills in your pocket or are you just really glad to see me?

And some other members have very politely asked that RO be placed in the title of clear RO. Some people respect that too.

Seriously? In the pit? No kidding? When and where did that happen? I honestly had no idea. If it was before my “Fuck you NASA guy” thread I wasn’t willfully flaunting the request, I just didn’t know. Damn, now I’ll have to check myself if I ever start another Fuck You thread.

People are such fucking whiny-assed crybabies.

Indeed, we should make misappropriation of company resources as easy as possible.

Oh, is that’s what this is about? So, a forum called the BBQ Pit needs to be more polite now? Ok, whatever.

I was agreeing with you, albeit tongue-in-cheek. I say carry on with the foul words in the foul word forum.

We’re also encouraged to avoid personal attacks and to address each other in language designed to foment interpersonal communication instead of anger.

For example, I might say “ **Q.E.D.** , you’re a fucking tool,” and he would respond “\*It hurts me \*when you say that I’m a fucking tool,” and I’d respond “\*I hear you saying \*that it hurts you when I say you’re a fucking tool,” and so on and so forth, until the matter is resolved.

No argument from me. But as far as I know, they only meant the titles. In the posts themselves I don’t think anyone but the truly die-hard tightasses suggested we self-censor. I’ll see if I can find the link, search function willing.
