What should we call the recent super-ban?

Marley’s Manifesto

I cast my support here. Years from now we’ll speak of it in whispers.

Same here. Best of the lot.

Spoons-brilliant.

Marley’show them the’ gate.

Thanks, folks! Glad you all enjoyed it–it did give me an earworm, but at least I was able to have some fun with it. Hope you did too.

I’ll add my vote for “What Marley did.” I can see it being whispered about wherever Dopers gather:

“Well, you know, it all had to do with–” She paused and looked around as if to see who might be watching; and when she had satisfied herself that no one was, continued softly, “what Marley did.”

Colibri was out in the jungle for a week; when he announced his return on the mod loop, I responded with “D’ja hear what Marley did?” So I guess that seems to be winning.

I heard he once shot a spammer in Kansas City just for putting his Blackberry down too close to the pool table.

We’ve had the Cuntocaust, the Rape Wars (which we celebrate with Rape Month), what else?

As for this event, I’m partial to Bangate.

This gets my vote.

Well, I heard that he once shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die. In other news:

He speaks French…in Russian.
He believes that when you go Dutch, you get what you pay for.
When he is in in Rome, they do as he does.
If he were to pat you on the back, you would put it on your resume.
His personality is so magnetic, he is unable to carry credit cards.

Marley is indeed, the Most Interesting Admin in the World.

We need to know what the last words posted to the message board were, just before Marley banned the entire membership.

Then we can all just say, in frustrated rebutal, “Oh yeah, well: <insert magic phrase>”

Or just cryptically mention to newbies, oh, and never say <insert magic phrase>

Lots of possible uses.

I like what Marley did. Nonspecific and kind of creepy if you don’t know what people are talking about.

I was going to vote for “Yet another thing D/a missed because his company sent him to Canada for a few days”, but that seems too long.

Marley’s Chuck Norris impersonation.

But…but…but…we have internet here, you know.

Marleys first day.

Marley’s SDMB - ‘Straight Dope Message Ban’

Yes, but you have to wait until the person in front of you is finished.

:wink:

Then there’s the upcoming bestseller-to-be, “Marley Banned Me”.
