Well said.

We checked your profile, and the original post, through the automated banning assessment system, and it deemed it as a genuine question.

Nice effort though..


Now if a moderator wants to ban you for something else, so be it.
Many new users have disappeared under strange circumstances..

I thought you had to have at least owned a P!G, to play in the pen? (Larr-is!)

But I like this guy's line of thinking: "Flight of Ideas"..."Derailment"... AND he pushed all your buttons on purpose!

The exclamation point is a bit of symbolism: the dot at the bottom represents a Cayenne - a Cayenne falling off a cliff. The tail represents a plume of smoke, created when the owner lit the engine on fire, prior to pushing it off said cliff. This symbol was a collaborative effort between engineering and marketing, designed to display whenever an operator tried to tow a real Porsche to the track. Sort of like a subconscious instruction: "light and push off cliff."

Or so I've heard...

Much like the Mayfly, I hope you've enjoyed your brief stay here in the P!g Pen ...
What does Larry think about this one for a forum T?

I actually enjoyed cleaning up the forums by deleting spam, moving posts to where they belonged, etc.
It was the whole dealing with the P&C inmates that sent me off the reservation...
I enjoy it too!

Now about the P&C, now I fully understand what you meant some months ago..
Luckily enough for me, we have added an addendum to my mods contract, that excludes me from that place.
My excuse was : "I am European, I don't even know who won the American Civil War.."

I think it's PCNA that insists he's never owned one. LTC, by virtue of sleeping with Larry's wife, just claims no desire to be around one ever again. But then he also claims to have never set foot on a Porsche showroom floor (since the said ownership experience that never took place) either, but we have video evidence and sworn affidavits to prove otherwise.

I believe I clarified this before....
The Queen was in for service, I said Hi to the Service Manager, wandered past the Parts Desk and into the showroom TO SAY HI to a salesman....
ZERO intention for me to buy.
It is a very open floor plan with the same tile from service to showroom, so technically I was in the showroom as soon as I exited the Queen.

Now, I did ask Larry's widow if she wanted a Cayenne or Panamera ... She laughed.
However, she did say a GT3 RS would be nice, instead of her 993Targa....now I know why Larry married her.

If anyone would like to confirm lack of ownership, send a SASE to PCNA Legal with just "!" ... They'll remember and abide by the restraining order, I'm sure.

I answered your question. Be thankful I haven't posted a visual of the P!G in question, that Larry so much loves (secretly)

If you do feel adventurous, just google "Rosie O'Donnell Exit to Eden lingerie"

I created a post a long time ago on who first used "P!G".

As to what it means, why don't you ask EnigmaWmn? IIRC, she (ahhh hemm), he is the origin of the reference.

I hope I won't get banned but I have to add the followings to the Flight of Ideas and Derailment:

Circumstantiality
Tangentiality
Word Salad
Neologisms
Thank goodness! Feisty noob is sweeping the P!gt pen. I take great offense when technical threads, such as the origin of the P!g moniker, are hijacked with nonsense from these fools.

For your next act, please chastise Pops, SLOW, and rome for all those avatar changes. I am easily confused.
