1. Well, do you blame them really?
The FCC would fine anyone for using that term in anywhere but the DU Lounge.

11. Who's to say it isn't?
It's a pretty common name.

6. Oh man, why don't you f*ckin' stop it?
Sh*t, this is too f*ckin' big for you, you know that? Who is Tommy_Carcetti, who killed Kennedy, f*ck man! It's a mystery! It's a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma! The f*ckin' shooters don't even know! Don't you get it?

8. boy.. I must have really missed some kerfluffle on DU.
I don;t know what the hell y'all are talking about..but it must be quite upsetting to you.. have a cup of something and calm down.. most people here don't read EVERY thread, but when someone posts a totally off-the-wall-thread (at least to us), it's not uncommon to ask what it's about.
