Useful Shit

From now on when I shave...

...I am gonna listen to 30 Seconds To Mars. And I am trying to find my $20 digi cam I got for Christmas. I think I already lost it. Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 10:56, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Tattoo Pics. Lame compared to yours. But I still like it. :) Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 17:04, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Shit, that looks great. How do the folks like it? Haha. the_undertow 01:25, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
My mom knew I was getting it, she was the one who used the copier to make it bigger. After I got it she said "I thought you were getting it higher up!! You're never getting a job now." And I don't think my dad has seen it completely. Every time he asked about it, I'd hide it and say, I don't know what you're talking about. But he probably will like it.

E-mail

You have one from me. 04:05, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I read it, responded, and I appreciated it. I'm pretty bored today, and actually been reading through my spam folder, in hopes that some important mail got locked in there. There wasn't. But I did learn that my girlfriend may or may not be happy with my penis size, I have erectile dysfunction, that some guy in Zambia needs my help cashing a check and straight guys like shemales, too. the_undertow 04:21, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

D-d-d-d-d-d-dooooooooooood!

Your userpage gives me orgasms of laughter (wtf?) Almost as bootylicoius as mine, dood! Dihydrogen Monoxide 04:31, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

CSD A2

Hi, I'd just like to gently remind you that the "exists on another Misplaced Pages" clause in CSD A2 is there for a reason. Per the author's request, I've undone your deletion of the Byeboerdery article and userfied it instead. Hopefully it will, in fact, eventually end up on the Afrikaans Misplaced Pages where it belongs. Thanks, and have a nice day! —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 10:52, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

that was a great reminder. i would gently remind you, that this is for english users. the_undertow 11:11, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

RFA Striking

Sorry if you saw that the wrong way, but the fact that I did that is becuase a user with so few edits can get suspicious as I see no way how a user who hasn't edited much could know so fast the ways of Rfa, no need to get angry here you simply had to revert my edits with a edit summary and I would have understood, theres not a need to even leave me a message. Once again I apologize if you took that the wrong way.--Kushan I.A.K.J (talk) 12:34, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

There's no telling how long he's editing before registering. And leaving a message after reverting someone's edits is customary to explain the reasoning. LaraLove 17:54, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
I didn't take it the wrong way. You struck an editor's vote. That is absolutely a slap in the face, especially to a new editor. I left you the message as a courtesy, and reminder that this type of behavior is not tolerated. Bureaucrats decide which votes are valid and which are not. Not you, and not I. Do you think this editor ever wants to participate again? the_undertow 22:11, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Dude, your page is teh suck... can I please redo it?

I think I'm just going to do that now and you can revert if you don't like it. LaraLove 17:55, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, there. Now it looks badass, much like yourself. It's based off of your sexy userpage pic... the second one currently on the page. I hope you like it. <3 LaraLove 18:50, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Re

What about your Friends list and Andonic0's Autograph Book? How is nonsense applied unilaterally and why is policy applicable to a cabal page, but not those of your own design? The truly honorable thing would be for both of you to list your respective entries in MfD as well, and let the editors decide.

My friends' list is intended to convey WikiLove to my friends who are listed there, and also…secondary reason…to keep me from forgetting them—since I am a skilled forgetter. Andonic0's autograph book may border on nonsense, but if it is put up on MfD, whether I voted Keep or Delete would depend on how strong the nomination is (strength of the nomination is why we vote "…per nom"). —  $PЯINGεrαgђ  05:56 7 January, 2008 (UTC)

So basically it's not about policy, it's about how the nom is formed? I've participated in XfDs for over a year, and never once I have voted 'per nom.' And your friends list is much more ridiculous that A's autograph book, despite your lawyering. The autograph book seems like a nice way to say 'hi.' Your friends list belongs with Tom on MySpace. The MfD was closed. You are editing archived discussions and changing user's comments after closure, and in all seriousness, your friends list having more merit than the BRC page is too far-fetched an assertion. We're gonna have to agree to disagree here. the_undertow 06:02, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Dude

Are you in Boston right now? I swear to God I saw someone on the train coming home that looked exactly like you. Either you're here, or you've got an identical bald twin that you don't know about. Srsly. GlassCobra 21:58, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Dood, if I was in Boston I would have hit you up! Long life the Onmi Pahkah House. the_undertow 00:30, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Well I mean that's what I figured! I was just really freaking confused, that's all. I stared at the guy the entire train ride home, trying to decide the least awkward way to ask what his name was. GlassCobra 06:18, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
I know... wait for it.... "Yo, the undertow?" Or his real name even. That would have worked just as well as asking the guy his name, only it wouldn't have come off as weird. ;) LaraLove 20:13, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Blackmagick5.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Blackmagick5.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 19:29, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

It's taken care of. LaraLove 20:11, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

You've been loved by Lara

Hey there! Lara has loved you by placing a heart icon in the top-right corner of your userpage. Don't worry, it's not vandalism, but simply a small way to spread the WikiLove. If you don't really like it, feel free to revert it and make it go away, and no hard feelings; after all, it's just a small token of appreciation. If you like it, just add your name here, but again, there's no need to feel upset if you don't. Love and best wishes, LaraLove 17:14, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Rancho Santa Margarita

Hi. An IP added the Real Housewives of Orange County thing. I know it's true because I live in RSM and have seen the the stars of the show walking in the shopping centers and eating dinner (they are certainly not treated like stars, though haha), but I guess without cites it does violate the no original research rule. Feel free to remove. Happyme22 (talk) 03:04, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Ticks and Leeches

Hey dude, I like your new page, the pink contrasts really nicely. How've you been? The drugs helping? So, for canvassing, I saw we add to the new messages tag: "Female? Admin? Join the Bathrobe cabal!" If it's unresponsive we could add "Or I'll fucking rape you!"., I dunno, it should be an option. That IAR tag should be on the BRC talk page, it's what we're about. Mate, we've created a monster. Cheers! Dfrg_msc 07:47, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

I think the "Or I'll fucking rape you!" is a bit too abrasive. I also don't want people thinking I was threatened into joining this group of hoodlums. Maybe just let me work my feminine magic and bring some ladies over with a softer touch. If that doesn't work, the_undertow's userpage can't hurt. Anyway, I'm off to slumberland to dream of white chocolate and such. Good times. LaraLove 07:54, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

If you can...

I'd like your help writing the Maynard article tonight. And you're home early... you feeling okay? LaraLove 00:42, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure what your reply was about on my Talk Page. Were you being indirect? Maybe dancing around something delicate? I'm not able to find any related comments on the Elvis Talk page, so you might want to help me here? Hoserjoe (talk) 05:55, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Harvey Carter's back

Trying to develop a history of inconsequential edits first, the following was noted:

172.213.30.174's edit in Marlon Brando: “Only six months after his death, his third wife Tarita Teriipia published a memior in which she revealed that Cheyenne had recorded in her diary being sexually abused by her father. Tarita suggested this was why Cheyenne had developed schizophrenia and committed suicide.”

Banned editor 172.143.18.73's edit in Marlon Brando: “Only six months after his death, his third wife Tarita Teriipia published a memior in which she revealed that Cheyenne had recorded in her diary being sexually abused by her father. Tarita suggested this was why Cheyenne had developed schizophrenia and committed suicide.”

Note the spelling error which I have put in bold lettering. FWIW, can you do your admin thin' and see to a quick dispatch of a sock? Bzuk (talk) 22:15, 20 January 2008 (UTC).

I blocked the former for 3 days. Let me know if there are any more problems with the article and I'll have a look at the discussion page. the_undertow 22:56, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
Yup, he's removed my comments twice with fairly incendiary language added in the edit summaries. FWIW Bzuk (talk) 23:15, 20 January 2008 (UTC).
Thanx, what should be done about the comments in the Marlon Brando talk page; I certainly wish to remove mine as it only acerbates the situation and attracts other unmentionables to the page. Bzuk (talk) 23:42, 20 January 2008 (UTC).
Generally it's not a good idea to remove any comments from the discussion pages unless its vandalism or an attack. You may wish to strike your comments if you want to let people know you want to retract them. the_undertow 23:46, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
You must have read my mind, that's exactly what I did. Thanks again! Bzuk (talk) 23:55, 20 January 2008 (UTC).

RfA

I think I'm being sockpuppeted, and I don't like it. However.....--Rodhullandemu (Talk) 04:02, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, tell me about it. Let's see what we can do. Or just stay cool and ride out your well-deserved, no-brainer of an RfA. Up to you, but I'll help. the_undertow 04:08, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Just briefly, I've never heard of this guy. So I wondered why Jeffrey O. Gustafson would have emailed him- I went through their talk pages & contribs and cross-correlated them and found only one obvious article they had in common- Spoo, when User:Edward Morgan Blake reverted a hidden comment that JOG had inserted. That didn't seem to be a sufficient nexus to establish that sort of relationship, to me. ALso there are large gaps in Blake's contributions, which means he's away doing something else. His talk page shows that right from the beginning of that account he has a good grasp of mechanics and policy, so had been around for a while. To be honest, to me, it sucks, but if that's the only Oppose I get I won't worry. What does worry is that it might blow up, after all, it's a long time ago now and I have moved on a long way. Advise as you think fit; there's no way I can sleep now. Regards, --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 04:33, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Well as a user with a fun-filled existence of anxiety disorders, former agoraphobia and plenty of klonipin usage, I would recommend that at this point, simply ignore it. The user admitted to bias at the end of the oppose, and that generally draws very little inquiry. People know that dealing with Jeffrey can be very difficult for those who are not accustomed to his style. Admittedly, this is his friend sticking up for him. But if every user that had a diff with Jeffrey... I mean, I admire him, but as a user, we have had it out before, but it's because his style is one of an acquired taste for me. Consider what the opposer said, and I wouldn't even reply. Candidate's who reply directly to their opposers can be seen as aggressive. Other people will come to your rescue, given your history. But seeing as how it's gone unnoticed, it means that the community doesn't view it as a problem. You are doing fine. I know it's easier said than done, but I'd stop watchlisting for a while. We'll be here when you wake up. the_undertow 04:42, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, I'll try & chill. Perhaps there might be a future for me as a checkuser. Regards--Rodhullandemu (Talk) 04:45, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
There's a future for you as anything here. That's why you have ONE oppose. If you didn't have any opposes, I'd be more concerned, because it means you didn't participate enough! :) the_undertow 04:46, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
