Wow, five pages and no one can rhyme "beezers" with "geezers"?

You people disappoint me.

If we're leaning towards "bonkers", we should go with "boinkers", or just plain "boink". You call tell your parents, "I'm going online to Boink!" and wear your nice "Boink" T-shirt to church. Give people the right idea with your "boink" underwear.

B77's nick should be [ img ]. The symbol is now freed up for us since the Artist Formerly Known As Prince is currently known as Prince.

Interesting bit of probably-common-knowledge-or-just-an-urban-legend-but-still-entertaining trivia for you... there was a huge fad for American youth to buy screened shirts with Asian letterng on them. One of the things that most of the youth pay no attention to, however, is exactly what the symbols on their shirts meant.
Is it "passion"? Maybe "wrath"?
Or is it perhaps "porno" or "street whore"?
Then again "beef and broccoli" is also a viable option...
Makes me wonder who gets a good laugh at the jokes behind our backs.
I wear shirts with Greek lettering on them, but since I speak the lingo, I know full well what they mean...
[ img ] "Welcome, friend."

Oh, and by the way: it's ee-vun-star, with dramatic hand gestures to indicate blinky lights.

Today is my 42nd birthday.
I've been trying to avoid "the G-word".

No, that's that other website I have open in a different window.[ img ]

And why would I tell my parents about it? :scratch
That's just weird.

:LMAO: :LMAO: :LMAO: :LMAO:

You guys!!! :damnfunny

*E* :that symbol, the blowing trumped above the male sign.... nah! Let Prince keep it!

Ang: well, you know, I'm too tolerant to expend much energy arguing my point. My experience is it's better to let people come around, which they often do, given time. And time is what I have above all things ;)

The MusikMan: glad I gave you the chance to glow :D Nice piece that is and I pity the trumpet man who has to attempt to master those notes. Me, a flute player, it's a lot easier :D

Rodia and Sass, I agree. :D Actually, bonkers seems strangely appropriate, too.

No, no, "moots" is correctly spelled "m00ts". You cannot have both 0 and 7 stand for the same sound. It ain't grammatical. :P

The Drama Queens is the most appropriate yet! :D Although bonkers might work just as well. :P

S, C, and K all manage to share sounds. Why not 0 and 7? :P That's how I've always said it. . .

I think Ro's suggestion comes the closest to actually describing us! :P

Bonkers is good as well..... :D

edit: So happy to see V having a great sense of humor over this. :hug:

Maybe we should just pick an image that suits us and use it as a pictograph.

How about the [ img ]s?

And Ang, you can't bribe me with Premiere membership over here... what can you do to keep me from telling TheGodess about your mixup? :devil:

The llama is kind of disturbing. Actually, so is the banana. He should've stuck to dancing. Riding pickle llamas is just taking it too far.

Well, last time I checked, my underwear wasn't really all that hypothetical. Ahem.

Actually though...

Nevermind.

*thinks pips is the kewlest*
Not just for knowing the difference between katakana and hiragana and that Be needs that diacritic but that it is the same character in both syllabaries.

*puts on pedants hat*
Shouldn't there be a character for ju between the shichi and shichi? I know, it spoils the look. And should it be the kana for Bi rather than Be?

Go tell me to take a running jump. :) It looks fine the way it is.

I always thought we were a bunch of argumentative bu77ers. G is the 7th letter.
