Heh, the Jabberwocky answer to civil debate, huh?

Well zippoff twarny vale, and stick it where the lumborly lies.

I'm all for it. No banned curse-o-meter words allowed. If it doesn't meet the nonsense rules, PAP goes the worsel, and it's dire dregafala with you!

I think this would be fun, somewhat challenging and a way to vent steam in a relatively harmless way.

The Jabber-thonkyew Casual Thread for the jumping Adadaddas among us. I'm twippy with it.

It'll drive the spell-a-rama nickles.

Rules:

1. All the rules for the casual conversation threads still apply. No personal attacks. No attempts to get around the profanity filter.

2. If you wish to jabberwock anyone in effagy, invent a completely new name for a fictional character that bears no resemblance whatsoever to the real name. If anyone can figure out who you're targeting, you're being too specific. For example, "President Bush" could be "Gormulus Maximus", but "Shrub" would be too easily identifiable.

3. Be as creative as possible. Wit counts more than clarity.

Question for debate:

Art thy wits anon bersmankled by the exploitments of Gom Sninkerfeister?

Edited to add: Ooops. A similar topic has already been closed, so I was looking for a way to retract the topic. However, entspeak wondered if it was different enough to pass muster, so we'll await an official ruling. If the topic remains active, perhaps the nonce game is on.

As much as I like the idea Author-Musician came up with this has already been smacked down!

Alas. I'll attempt a retraction... sad.gif Sorry to have broken the rules.

(Edited to add: after entspeak's comment below, I'll leave the topic open for moderator review.)

I think this is different in that the focus isn't on other AD'ers but is, rather, a Carrollian rant about public figures and the like - i.e. the aforementioned Gormulus. Am I right in my understanding of this? I think it would be fun.

Aye, 'twas intended as such, perhaps I'll not retract it quite yet, but leave it open for moderator review. In the meantime, perhaps we can post a few examples to see if it is harmless enough to work.

CLOSED - for the same reason as I closed the sister topic. If you want to start a place to make fun of public figures, I suggest getting a blog. This forum is for casual conversations.
