Thanks to you and SkipMagic for the answers.

Doo waa tiddy tiddy tum tiddy do
Today’s the day the Tiddy Bears have their picnic
You’re worried about me keeping you out of college?
Never mind the Tiddy Bear, what about this “Mr Meow wall clock”?
The cat has no body! It’s just a head and a tail. Totally creepy.
Gives off an “hourly Meow Mix” sound? What is an “authentic Meow Mix sound”?
A one-off wisecrack is out of place in a forum devoted to Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share, eh? Lighten up.
Oooh - are there any Moderator Warnings on my permanent record?
(I assume we can be told this…)
Hi! I’m really new here. I just want to say I think it’s really really horrible how everybody won’t leave SkipMagic alone when he was just doing his job. Nobody understands what a difficult decision this must have been for him. He probably was thinking about it for a really long time and didn’t want to write his note but he knew deep down in his heart that it was the right thing to do. I hope this doesn’t make anybody mad at me but I’m going to try to explain it because I’m really good at explaining things! Imagine if Skip had not said anything. Then probably something like this would have happened:
Bosda: “I’m not going to get a new sig. Why don’t you get a new sig.”
Bear: “No. You get a new sig.”
Bosda: “No. You get a new sig.”
Bear: “No. You get a new sig *and * get a new name too.”
Bosda: “No. You get a new sig and a new name and a new Smiley.”
Bear: “Make me.”
Bosda: “No. You make me.”
That would really waste everybody’s time and set a really bad example too because then everybody would be fighting like that all the time.
BTW, I feel really scared to admit this but I don’t think I can get in trouble here so I want to tell everybody about this big mistake I almost made. I almost wrote “I like your name” in Bosda’s thread. But I’m really glad I didn’t because then I would be a hijacker too and all the mods would yell at me and SkipMagic would have to write this:
Blue Mood: You broke my Sarcasm meter. You should be ashamed of yourself.
BTW: What does Bosda’s name refer to?
Are they fond of fungi, by any chance?
All this, and the damn sig’s still there! (I rarely log in just to read posts, so turning off sigs doesn’t really help me.)
I don’t care what your “explanation” is, from now on you will always be tiddy Bear_Nenno to me.

I wondered what the hell BN was talking about, then I remembered I had turned my sig display option off because of long, incredibly annoying sigs that are meant to be arch and witty, but somehow come off as weak, posturing, self fellating exercises that make you feel dirty and sticky afterwards for having viewed them.
In reading the sig at issue I realized that Skipmagic had been entirely correct in remonstrating BN for his comment. Skipmagic realized that even the smallest and seemingly innocuous comments words can scald one’s self esteem like dimethylmercury where just a tiny drop on the skin will burrow into your bloodstream and eat you up all the way to the very bones of your soul.
As a fighting man Bear is well versed in a variety of deadly, surreptitious mental assault techniques, and is well aware that this comment would grow and fester in Bosda’s consciousness until he questioned the validity of his very existence as a meaningless pit-stop on the expressway to oblivion.
Skipmagic needed to put a stop to that and he did. Well done! That’ll’ do mod… that’ll do.
I’m sorry tiddy Bear_Nenno. Please forgive me.
