Welcome our new administrator Marley23

@Marley23

I was (jokingly) taking responsibility for the bans this morning. We don’t know what actually happened and we’re looking into it.

Ahh, OK. I mean… I knew that! See how funny I am? I really am that clever. Really…

@SkipMagic

Apparently, there’s a little bit of India in all of us.

Mattar paneer and vegetable pilau in my case.

[curlcoat]

Hmm, since I was already kissing Marley’s beautiful behind in the other thread, do I need to do it here?

Quandary

Oh hell, go for the safest!

I’m sure you’ll do a great job!!!

I was reading down the page and all the talk of red buttons reminded me of that cartoon. And then third from the end someone beats me to it. :smack:

FINALLY, I get to ninja someone. <waves small fists in air in Rocky-like triumph>

@Exapno_Mapcase

The best part is that the label explaining what the red button does appears only **after **Elmer pushes the button. That was the funniest satire on the design of that stupid panel and it’s almost invisible unless you’re watching for it.

I know, right? Obviously, the designers did not have to submit to either QA or a technical writer!

@Exapno_Mapcase

Oh, and just so I can contribute one obscure fact to save face for being too late to the party, that cartoon is a parody of [The Further Adventures of] Ma and Pa Kettle and the ultramodern, push-button house they win in a contest.

This I did not know, because they are a bit before my time. Thank you, I suspect there will be searching on youtube for this, at least.

How ancient do you think I am? That movie came out before I was born. That’s the definition of before my time. Was the 1954 cartoon during your time?

Tom Edison says hello.

(Yeah, I’m still mad you ninja’d me.)

You just have an old soul.

@the lone cashew

Actually Marley has always been huge on my respect list. Am glad to see you (Marley) take the jump from the $40,000USD to the $60,000. Kudos, dudos.

So…Eh?

What on Earth are you going on about? :dubious:

There must be an arseload of backstory to your current ire, because it seems at teh moment to be nothing but drivel.

J. Squirrel or Balboa?

They’re still showing the Daffy Duck cartoon, though. I can’t remember ever seeing a listing for Ma and Pa Kettle on the TV.

@twickster

J. Squirrel or Balboa?

Balboa. Which is weird, because while I’ve seen plenty of Rocky and Bullwinkle, I’ve never seen Rocky.

@Marley23

Before my joke gets out of hand, I should explain seriously that I did ban one IP address this morning right before whatever happened happened. The obvious inference is that that ban caused the big lockout.

Hmmm, possibly you’re taking this Administerminator title too seriously.

@Marley23

I’ll still be moderating GD, Cafe, and the Elections forum. This just gives me some other behind-the-scenes abilities/responsibilities. For example when I look at your user profile I can see you naked.

Thank Og that monitors are now 16:9 instead of 4:3 .

Congrats !!! Welcome to the upper tier, the outer ring, the creme de la creme.

Have I mentioned how brilliant, insightful and witty I’ve always found your posts to be?

I should.

Good idea. You might even consider making it your signature.

[Cartooniverse]

Oh, no kidding !!!

[Marley23]

If you’re doing that gag, shouldn’t your signature just be “it?”

[Cartooniverse]

… freakin’ picky Dopers…

If I don’t leave my sig line for a while, these posts will make no sense.
Great. I go from a U2 lyric to a one-off joke that you’ve (rightfully) picked apart.

:smack:

[El_Kabong]

In to say congrats. I shall pretend that I have a clue what a board administrator, er, administrates.

With me at the helm, you’re lucky if you can post at all.

Congrats to you, Marley! Who was saying that profiling was a bad thing?

[Rachellelogram]

So you get a pay raise for this, right? If not, do you accept paypal donations? Just kidding. Sort of. You should really get paid something if you’re adminning, though :V

I like Marley a lot
