I am hereby revoking your right to the use of the phrase "... Okay!"

Because I am a jerk.

You're not looking at the little description things under the topic subject. Regardless, that's quite funny. :)

Clearly we need to create a larger population of both posts and topic descriptions using the word "wherein" so that we can determine the actual relative shares with more precision :)

(also, I find it deliciously ironic that Banjooie actually has the largest slice of Maurog's pie)

Well now what we need is a comparison that takes into account their relative amounts of time on the forum.

I am highly amused to have taken second place, though. And I'm in such fine company!

Is this the word-banning thread? Because I'd really like to add "whilst" to the list. And while my request ticket is open, maybe you could add "Gunthro" to the list just to see what happens.

"Wherein" doesn't return anything in a topic name search either. Are topic descriptions really not searchable at all without Google?

Whilst I suspect that this pie might be true, wherein should I seek a confirmation?

Nevertheless, I digress that my evident over-usage of eloquently phrased words is quite aggravating and infuriating. Yet how shalth man express his jurisprudence when obfuscating obscurantism breeds malaise in thy heart?

I will laugh hard if it is even remotely correct

That sounds like a deficiency of the search engine to me. ;)

No! I simply cannot believe that the search engine is not the best possible.

I think I know what went wrong with (a) trickster - too many fist-head collisions... :)

np: Mouse On Mars - Frosch (Rost Pocks)

So also: the only reason I clicked on Jatopian's sig is that I wondered why he got rid of the "Hey, didn't Jatopian used to be a pony being?" quote.
I felt it was no longer appropriate now that I'm a contributing member of the community as opposed to a candy-corn-horn-beast. Keeping the avatar for lack of another that strikes my fancy, though.
Banjooie relies on a very, very, very tall and rather shaky ladder of ponies to deliver his snark for him.

Not to muddy the issue with my fancy mathematics or anything, but a single pony doesn't equal a ladder.
