Seeing **Guinastasia** Pit **Snowboarder Bo** is a bit like watching a throwdown between Honey Boo Boo and Ralph Wiggum.

I thought the original autocorrect phrase story was hilarious, and it still makes me laugh every time Snowboarder Bo uses it, which seems to me to be very rare nowadays .

There’s a plugin for Chrome called ‘Word Replacer II’. I’m gonna download it and see if it’ll let me replace Bo’s boring catchphrase with something that’s actually funny and interesting.

I’ll report back.

I think it’s funny, and I sill chuckle in those rare times he uses it.

Even funnier are the enraged reactions from tightly-wound knuckleheads.

Bo is a good SDMB member. This is his amusing quirk. Get over it. It won’t hurt you.

Try _“But everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked”_. It’s trending again.

I was going to say “I LOL’ed” but at the last minute realised that was a bit too ersatz for this thread.

So, 😃 😃 😃 instead.

It’s incredibly stupid, but I do think it’s kind of funny how worked up people like the OP get over it. How does him writing a stupid phrase affect you in any way whatsoever? Why should he have to stop? Why on Earth should moderators be involved?

It’s also funny/sad that despite how stupid and tired it is he’s still committed to doing it years and years later.

BTW, the original clip was funny because Creed is a weird motherfucker, and the fact that throwing random objects into a quarry is his idea of entertainment (especially as an older adult) is also weird and fitting for his character. The story that spawned **SB** ’s usage of the phrase also struck me as funny - as someone mentioned upthread, somebody said they set their co-worker’s computer to replace “LOL” with the phrase in question automatically as an auto-correct thing (can anyone find this thread?). The reason that’s funny is because you can imagine the person it was done to being baffled by the strange replacement. **SB** then taking this idea and doing it purposely is entirely contrived and not at all funny.

Well, I am less annoyed (and I wasn’t that annoyed before), now that I know Bo is just running a script that automatically inserts the catchphrase whenever he LOLs.

He has contributions? You may be right, but to be honest, ever since he started his little gimmick I find I don’t bother reading his posts any more. When I see who it is I just think “The quarry fucker wrote that, and he’s a wanker” and then I skim on past.

Surprised more people don’t see it that way, this prick is writing posts that consist of nothing “LOL”. Just “lol” and nothing else. If another poster did that they would get kicked in the balls.

Anyhow, this cumstain only enjoys the attention, he will be hovering around this thread like a fly on shit and we will hear the catchphrase a few more times before the end. At least he thinks he’s happy.

How many people on this board type posts that are just LOL’s?

So he has successfully trolled you in a minor way. You do know threads like this just make him happy, don’t you?

It is a dumb joke, a forced meme, but it is mostly harmless, so better to ignore it.

Wow.

You are absolutely wrong. I never called **Guinastasia** , or any other poster, a cunt. In fact, I’ve never called anyone, poster or not, a cunt. IN FACT, I’ve never even posted that word on the SDMB; I have more class than that (and way more than you). [My cite is this search for any use of the word in any post by me for the last 10 years](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/search.php?searchid=12537631).

Also in fact, I never called a **Guinastasia** a name at all, although she did allude to calling me a 7-year old.

Thanks for showing everyone that you are a classless asshole by trying to defame me, tho. At least now we all know what kind of person you are.

I linked to the post by **Chessic Sense** in [post #55](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=18718348&postcount=55), above. It’s a quoted post, so it can be used as a link to the whole thread, which was about auto-correct humor.

No, I really derive no pleasure from being Pitted. I will defend myself vociferously, tho, as I did back in 2012 when people not only Pitted me, but tried to have me removed from the Boards.

I won those arguments, btw.

No, they don’t make me happy, not like you mean. Yeah, it’s kind of amusing in a befuddled kind of way that people can get so worked up about something so simple, especially considering that my use of it isn’t all that often. But no, I’m not cackling with glee over the need to defend myself from accusations of trolling or of calling people a cunt, etc.

I will defend myself tho, and I won’t knuckle under to the bullying going on here.
