[sup]Any others that should be here? [/sup]

Shouldn’t that be MODAPHOBIA?

Although what’s to be afraid of, I have no idea. They’re all just a buncha big ol’ softies, or, at least, easily bribed. :wink:

SERLINATION: the act of registering five screen names at any one sit-in, then having them argue with eachother in a thread.

Were this is a less polite thread, I mught suggest the changing of factomangulation to something reflecting the tendencies in GD of a now-banned poster to quote selectively from a certain site about the Bible and history of the people(s) therein, which resulted in at least one pit thread with an incredibly long name.

But I’m not going to.
