Phusebox

No more Phusebox

May 02 2006

I made the critical mistake of showing my parents a post that spoke kindly of me. Now, I shall be lectured on how I'm going to be arrested for accusing someone of causing the dinosaurs to go extinct.

haha, wow, thats why i dont let my parents into my life.

Indeed. Nothing that brings happiness in any way, shape, or form to me, no matter how harmless, must be immediately destroyed. For instance, did you know that merely having a group called "Hunter Barry has tried to kill me" is more than enough grounds for there to be a warrant for someone's arrest?

ya dont say? wow, doesnt take much nowadays huh? btw, r u not allowed to get on phusebox anymore? cuz its labeled "no more phusebox"

No I'm allowed to. But apparently any attempts at humor that could be interpreted in any way threatening (for instance, saying someone invaded Poland despite the fact they weren't born for another 50 years) is a felony that would ruin your life.

drat, i like humor! well im sure you can find some humorous thing that does not relate to anyone ruining their life or going to jail...

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

Indeed. But I assure you, I will be fast at work trying to find any possible way any possible person could be threatened by something.

lol, wonderful

"lol" vaguely resembles a TIE fighter from Star Wars, scourge of the Rebel Alliance. That is a most violent image you create and is entirely unfit for the real world. Perhaps you only see an abbreviation, but the rest of the world isn't so well adjusted.

beth cooper

May 02 2006

haha, your right it kinda does! id never thought of it that way. wow although perhaps it should look more like this then (-o-) what do you think?

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

That's a TIE Interceptor, novice, though I thank you for your concern. l-o-l works better but I did say "vaguely resembles".

beth cooper

May 02 2006

yes you did but im afraid lol is permanantly part of my keyboard vocabulary.

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

You're only making it worse for yourself.

beth cooper

May 02 2006

i know...cant help it though. ive been using lol for years now i believe. although i believe most of it see it as abbreviations and not a ship off star wars.

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

Well we can't risk some seeing it as a warship and calling the police to report you as part of a vast Imperial Conspiracy. We don't want you to spend the rest of your life in jail.

beth cooper

May 02 2006

thats a very good point perhaps i should find someway to replace it. any ideas?

Dani

May 02 2006

so...would it be bad to say that your geting trouble is somehow "someone" elses fault and therefore might be considered by certain groups of people to be something known as a "High Crime"?

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

Yes, yes it would. In fact, such a move would make you one of the most vile criminals in all of history. Fortunately that was hypothetical.

Dani

May 02 2006

yes yes - very fortunate....i'd hate to be vile

uncriedtears

May 02 2006

try lmfao...better than lol

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

">o<" Don't worry I brought an X-WIng to save the day. And sadly lmfao bears an eerie resemblance to "I'm FAO" which is a Rome based, UN led organization for distributing food. If they found you saying "I'm FAO" then there'd be all kinds of legal problems with copyright infringements and whatnot.

beth cooper

May 02 2006

so basically what your saying is, stay away from abbreviations.

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

Yea. And X-Wings are cool. I'm saying that too.

beth cooper

May 02 2006

so its ok to use >o< then?

Hunter Barry

May 02 2006

Yes but you risk (-o-)'s and l-o-l's to be in hot pursuit yelling "Rebel Scum". Ultimately it's a calculated risk.

beth cooper

May 02 2006

i think i might be willing to take that risk.

Christina

May 02 2006

Was it because you showed them my post?? I feel bad now.

Dani

May 02 2006

um...did they make you delete the really fun post? that makes me very sad *cries*

David Ambrose

May 03 2006

That's flippin gay man! I thought it was all funny...

Rebecca Jensen

May 03 2006

try haha instead of lol... it doesn't resemble much else ;-)

Dani

May 03 2006

he he he is also very fun

Shelby

May 03 2006

haha....thank you.

So I think it is safe to say we have defeated various online phrases this day. I propose we declare ourselves the victor and move onto the next battle.
