Damn, I thought it would be pretty funny to change my Custom User Title to “BANNED” – but it won’t allow that. So I’ve changed to “Deceased” but I’m gonna try “SUSPENDED” see if that works.

Stop that! You’re gonna give me a heart attack!

I know you don’t know me, but I see your posts all the time and generally enjoy what you say. So first I see DECEASED under your name, and then I see BANNED. And no, I didn’t notice that there were 3 N’s. So I started frantically looking to see what happened.

So anyhow, I’m happy to see that you’re just having fun and you’re still here. But stop it!

That’s very sweet of you to say – thank you! But boys must be boys and have our fun. Be comforted that you are in on the joke. 😛

Knock it off.

It’s not funny, it’s confusing to other people.
