> [@NoClueBoy](#): > > But, that exchange is why _ **everyone is using the line** _, isn’t it? It was pretty heavily referenced back in the day. (bolding mine) Your post implies that the ‘line’ is being/has been used _ **more than twice** _. Cite, please? (Or thread/post#?) It seems to me, that the only people that can state, (_ **without** _ breaking the ‘junior modding’ rule.) “I am the fucking hall monitor.”, would be… Mods. 😕 (Especially, in the context that **manhattan** and **Gary “Wombat” Robson** used it.) Which brings up the question, was **manhattan** ever a Mod, here on the SDMB? ---

Absolutely, **manhattan** was a mod here at the time of that post and for several years. ---

The line has been used in numerous threads, in multiple forums, by users who sometimes aren’t even mods throughout the years. Mostly in a joking way. Don’t take the phrase too seriously. 😉 [fucking](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=16009791&postcount=5) [hall](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=15686225&postcount=102) [monitor](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=15529604&postcount=34) were all early in a search I just now did, sticking with current posts. Go back to when Manhattan posted that 10 years ago, and it was all over the Dope. ---
