[edit] Re: I'm not really leading

Ref: this, UnSignpost stories appear to have bylines (see Uncyclopedia:UnSignpost/6-19-08). I'm just following those that came before. Sir Modusoperandi 19:03, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh. Ok, then. Umm..... ok. -- REGRETTENENBAUM ♠ ♥ ♣ ♦ 19:10, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm just saying that it has precedence. It's not just me. I'm not egocentric. Seriously! Why, just the other day while I was gazing at myself in the mirror, with the mirror-me gazing back, I thought to myself "Boy, am I ever humble". Also, you don't have to copy my comment from your talkpage to mine. You can just reply on your talkpage. Now it looks like I started a topic on my own talkpage, which is crazy. Sir Modusoperandi 19:19, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh, alright - no more copying comments - got it! haha sorry about that! -- REGRETTENENBAUM ♠ ♥ ♣ ♦ 19:46, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

No biggie. Sir Modusoperandi 20:08, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks but I'm afraid that I have to turn down your offer. I'm firmly rooted in my own independence. It's my defining characteristic. Well, that and the naked thing. Sir Modusoperandi 21:09, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Pah, kids these days! Back in my day, we used old versions of applications, and we were happy, dagnabit! Sir Modusoperandi 00:23, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] I'd like to offer my deepest sympathy for your recent Sysoppage

Why? Why must it always take the beautiful ones? -- Sir Mhaille  (talk to me)

Beautiful ones? On the internets? Sir Modusoperandi 05:17, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

ha! Now I finally have a chance to get more VFHs than you! Run along and do your big adminny things. While I in the background shall write many many goods n' shit! Get them awards while yer polishin' the site!   ~   Cajek! <0:40, 01 Jul 2008>

You forget, young Cajek, my considerable catalog of...evil! Moo ha-ha! Sir Modusoperandi 05:17, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Gratz.

Congrats on the oppage. sirsysrq @ 01:27 Jul 1

General relativity is wrong man. When I fell, I fell upwards. Sir Modusoperandi 05:19, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

For lack of something original to say, I shall say this: Congrats on the oppage. --SYNDROME _{MUN medicate} 19:39, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

The cream rises to the top, they say. After you skim off the cream, you get me. That's even sexier than it sounds. But I digress. Sir Modusoperandi 20:16, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Once upon a time, I received some admin-type advice from this user guy...

I'm don't want you going the way of Braydie or Sbu, so don't do too much admin-type stuff. They burned themselves out, I think. Plus, Braydie's computer was made of wicker, which made his 20,000,000 admin-related edits more work than they really needed to be. I blame myself for Sbu...I let you pawn the mahna mahna virus off on her. Still, her adminness probably didn't help. Remember this message? I love nostalgia. Anyways, I'm even being lazy and copy/pasting this to your talk from my archives. I'd recommend you do the same (the lazy part, I mean). It's not a 100 yard dash. It's a marathon; a marathon that never ends. ;) - P.M., WotM, & GUN, Sir Led Balloon (Tick Tock) (Contribs) 02:26, Jul 1

If there is one thing you don't have to worry about, it's me doing too much admin-type stuff. Sir Modusoperandi 05:19, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Congrats MO

Now I can finally steal your muse and go back to writing. Is she butt naked by the way? Oh, and if YOU stop writing, I'll tell that nice English lad with the drugs to take your ban hammer away. ~ 07:43, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't own Sophia, man. She's her own woman. No, she's not naked. I'm not sure, actually. She smacks me with her purse every time I try to look at her. I don't plan to stop writing. In fact, I rarely plan anything here. It's worked out pretty good, I think. And thanks. Once I figure out what this "Admin" thing is, I'll be the best one ever. Like Braydie was, but lazy. Sir Modusoperandi 08:16, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

About. Fucking. Time. Very glad to see it. --UU Blah / Pee 08:48, Jul 1

I'll just add my wee bit to the chorus, well done and good luck with your new diabolic powers;)--Sir Sycamore (T) (C) 08:57, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Now I can fly and control men's minds. Adminshiphood is a lot like the higher levels of scientology. Sir Modusoperandi 13:06, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Dammit Modus, Tom swore us all to secrecy! Seriously though, congratulations. I think the most memorable part of this whole affair will be the typo Codeine made while opping you. Honestly, he's a school teacher. How will he ever live this down? — Manticore Bot 08:00, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

How so? Heze a grate skool techer! Sir Modusoperandi 13:06, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Wtaz about dam time. You ban and huff logs are already starting to read like one of your articles. Love it. :) MrN  10:03, Jul 2

Ban & Huff were a Vaudeville act, by the way. They were black. Of course, back then people didn't call them black. Ahhhh, good times. Sir Modusoperandi 13:06, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I haven't been around much lately, but I'm really proud of you. Or rather, I was, years ago when I first thought you deserved this. By now, I'm just bored with you. But in a good way.--<<>> 21:08, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I, too, am bored with you. Sir Modusoperandi 21:10, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Aw, you say the sweetest things when you're not drunk.--<<>> 21:31, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

It's the same when I'm drunk, but with more heavy petting. Sir Modusoperandi 21:40, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] VFD

Good day Sir Modus! Hea, looks like we have another sysop who takes an interest in VFD! Yay!!! /me runs around the room cheering!.... I must admit I'm a tad confused as to what you are doing with the good old {{VFDc}} template over on VFD though... for example. You appear to be putting it onto every article which you have deleted. Um? Now perhaps I have lost my marbles. Well, truth is I never had many to start with, but I thought that we used that VFDc thinggymebob for when an article had been "kept" rather than when it's just deleted. Normally when I archive the VFD page I just look for the ones which have a red link (to tell me they are huffed) and the kept ones are marked with "VFDc" as well as a comment being left by the admin to the effect that it was them that kept it. Normally admins don't bother saying anything in the comment section when they delete, I guess cos the details are available in the huff log. Umm... I hate to point fingers, but... Um? Sausages? :-) MrN  15:51, Jul 2

Yeah, what he said, but less rambly. Also, I automatically click on VFDc tagged articles to put the VFD kept template on the talk page - it's very handy, as long as it's only on kept articles. Would you mind awfully? Finally, some kind of amusing comment such as you often make at this point. One about monkeys. --UU Blah / Pee 15:58, Jul 2

Or trousers. Comments about trousers are much better than comments about monkeys in my view. Unless they are about sausages. Oh. I'm rambling again? Anyway... Did you see the game last night? MrN  16:04, Jul 2

Why must you fill my talkpage with lies? I, as a competent and well trained admin, with more than mumble years of adminish experience under my belt, would never do something so silly. I suggest that you make an appointment with your eyebologist to have your eyesight checked. Sir Modusoperandi 16:09, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

It's true UU. I checked back and apparently we imagined the whole thing. Dam, Modus must have spiked the punch again. MrN  16:19, Jul 2

I banned myself for my tomfoolery by me, myself. On an unrelated note, I've been banned a bunch of times recently and, spookily, never noticed. Sir Modusoperandi 16:24, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

# (Block log); 16:20 . . Modusoperandi (Talk | contribs) (blocked User:Modusoperandi with an expiry time of 10 minutes: Messing with VFD? You, sir, disgust me)

Considering the circumstances this constitutes a disgusting abuse of power. Congratulations, you will make a great admin. ;) MrN  16:26, Jul 2

I know. I've gone quite mad with power. Mad! (Also, my first and only block blocked me, which sets up the good-me/evil-me dynamic for the sequel, Modusoperandi II: Electric Boogaloo) Sir Modusoperandi 16:38, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Maybe your second ban should be me for mentioning about adding ICUs? I noticed that you had given some out without providing a fix message? Does ya not have that fancy .js thing which does all the tying for you? People have been shot in the pants for just giving an ICU with out leaving a fix message you know... /me puts trousers over head and awaits the expected ban... MrN  16:46, Jul 2

I didn't add the ICUs. I noticed the pages on QVFD, went to the pages, and people had tagged the pages with ICU (frequently just before I got there). If there is blame to be had, it falls on shoulders other than mine. I'm just taking baby steps in to this whole "admin" thing. I plan to mess up other places in other ways, later. Sir Modusoperandi 17:15, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm...the two that I remember were both WIPs (I put on QVFD that one was ICU. I'm flakey. Like pie). I'm not huffing a WIP until it expires. Sir Modusoperandi 17:22, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

trousers... It's all good. I noticed that you had not huffed Spot. (oh it's gone!) A lot would have, but I see where you are coming from in wanting it kept. If you are happy that everything below a certain point on QVFD is OK to be archived you can put {{QVFDc}} at said place and that let's us Poopsmiths know that it's OK to archive from that point down... ;) Fun this admin stuff eh? MrN  17:33, Jul 2

I'm more an inclusionist than a deletionist. I think we should at least give a crappy page enough time to prove that it won't be uncrapulated by its author before we huff it (hence ICU/WIP, etc). As for {{QVFDc}}, that's how I divide groceries at the checkout. That triangular plastic bar is soooo last millenium. Sir Modusoperandi 17:54, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Amen to that. I have put a fair bit of effort into getting rid of our old crap so that we can get some nice fresh stuff into it's place for a while... The fresh poo at least encourages the new users to stick around long enough for them to learn to produce that which is of a less pungent nature. A well placed {{ICU|~~~~~|fix=Nice start, but you need to work on this some more|sub=short}} will often keep the other admins and their nasty deletionist hufmasters at bay... Anyway, I'm filling your talk page with pointless pants again, so I bid you good day sir. MrN  18:04, Jul 2

Thanks for dropping by. Sir Modusoperandi 18:13, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm telling you, those poopsmiths got all cofused after messing around poop for such a long time. Should I ban them for you? Should I? May I? May I? Please? ~ 20:24, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Hea, I even asked myself for a ban and did not even get one! What's a guy got to do around here eh? Nominate Mordillo to be a crat or something? MrN  20:30, Jul 2

There's a thought, you'll get all sort of angry masked crats knocking on your door at 2am. ~ 20:33, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

No. They're good kids. They just get a little bit rambunctious when a mommy comes home with a new admin, that's all. Sir Modusoperandi 20:36, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Its me, I need something, long time no talk...

...hi Handsome.

I need something. An image for Goldilocks and the Three Bears. So far the images are just so-so, but I need something that can punch it up and do two things: 1) Have people go "Oh my GOD!" in a good way, and "Oh my GOD!" in shocked, forgotten how to breath sense of the word.

Can you do it? Dame GUN WotM PotM VFH VFP Poo PMS •YAP• 21:44, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

I love you, but you couldn't have picked a worse time. Normally, it feels like I work all the time. Currently, I work all the time. For example, I just got home from work, and in eight hours I'm going back. If you can wait a few weeks (maybe a month) for shit to settle down, I can. Until then, it's all I can do just to stay awake. Try asking the most recent PotM. That'll learn 'im. Sir Modusoperandi 22:28, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia editors

What happened? you lost your sense of humor? There are taboos in the sect? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.254.232.114 (talk • contribs)

Looking at your contribs, I assume you meant the all-cap'd WIKIPEDIA EDITORS. With text like "Wikipedia editors are mentally-ill nerds. They spend their days editing articles about subjects they never heard of as their only knowledge is computer usage.". They do suck, don't they? What you have to do, is make the reader care. The reader knows that wikipedia editors are the worst. They want more. Can you give them more? Would you like to sign up for an account, so that I can move whateverpageitwas into your userspace? This way, you could improve, fill out and finish the page before anybody else sees it.Sir Modusoperandi 23:48, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:Evil Pi/Uncyclopedian Nazi Party

Hey Modus... You seem active right now. Evil Pi's Nazi party was huffed by Mordillo before, and he just recreated it. Keep an eye on this bastard, and maybe huff his thing again.   ~   Cajek! <15:37, 10 Jul 2008>

Okay. I'm all over it like something that's on something else. (Why can't we have a Nazi Party, anyway? What if I want to rally?) Sir Modusoperandi 15:41, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Then you join the Cannonball Run Party, and get Burt Reynolds and Dom DeLuise to fuck up a lot and make hilarious outtakes. Hilarious! --UU Blah / Pee 15:45, Jul 10

We should have the baked beans party, or better still the weetabix party! ~ 15:46, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

"I'm gonna stick these bleeds up your nose." "You mean those bleeds?" (cast breaks out in laughter) Sir Modusoperandi 15:49, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pop quiz!

Complete the following sentence, Modus, if you would:

Even though I've been a model Uncyclopedia user for over a year, voting for myself means that in reality I'm a(n) _________________________________________________

:D   ~   Cajek! <14:23, 14 Jul 2008>

Insane power hungry maniac?! ~ 14:33, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Well, Cajek, let me put it this way:

“You know who else self-for'd? That's right: Sauron. Think about it.”

~ Modusoperandi on Self-for'ing oneself into a position of power

You know who also self-for'd? JESUS. That's right. Our lord and savior: the king of kings. He self-for'd, and you know what he got for his trouble? His ass kicked. I think we need to re-examine "self-foring"   ~   Cajek! <14:42, 14 Jul 2008>

This looks like a good place to mention I'm on both FFS AND UGotM. Vote for me! I know I did! --Dexter111344 Complain here... Vote here today! 14:44, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

I think I'm for self-examining. --UU Blah / Pee 14:45, Jul 14

Ey Cajek, he is YOUR lord and savior, and look where that brought him, that power hungry Jew...~ 15:00, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Did I say Jesus? I meant Sophia. Sorry about the confusion.   ~   Cajek! <15:19, 14 Jul 2008>

[edit] bill gates vs linus torvalds

why did you erase —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.32.159.25 (talk • contribs)

It appeared on QVFD, I read it and huffed it. If you'd like me to undelete it, sign up for an account and I'll move it under your userpage, so that you can finish it there before moving it out to mainspace.

When you get an account, contact me and I'll doing that moving thing that I talked about earlier in this very special episode of Talkpage.

Tips: Your page needs pictures, links, an intro of some kind, and...the format you chose makes it incredibly hard to read (putting everything in quote template format adds very little, at the cost of making the page look disjointed). Sir Modusoperandi 02:18, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] move me something

hi I would like to enquire if this article Magibon article is good enough to be moved to the mainspace. It failed on grounds that the subject was of relative unnoteworthy or something like that. However reccently Wiki P has a version of it by itself. Therefore if it could had in very least gotten approval by a certain Admin at wiki P, could that mean it could gather approval from an admin of uncyclopedia. If the article is bad, I will employ constructive efforts of rehabilitating it. Perhaps making it more like a satire of wikiP's article. But until that, I haven't a slight clue of how to salvage this article.

[1] [2]

Thanks for your time Hetelllies 02:20, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I cleaned up some grammatical errors for you. The rest is up to you: before I move it, you need to clean up the last 2/3's of the page. One list is okay. A brazillion of them, not so much. (Also, even after reading the wikipedia page and the last link that leads to some crazy jibberish page, I still have no idea whether your page is good or not. That's the problem with niche pages. Nietzsche pages, too). Sir Modusoperandi 02:34, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Got it! I'll rewrite that back part, then come back to you when I'm done. Thanks!! Hetelllies 08:27, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I've done a major revision to it. How does it fare up now?Hetelllies 10:09, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Wow...I just meant that you needed to trim the lists (edit a couple down and kill the rest). Where did the pictures go? With all the lists, it was too listy. Now it's too stubby. That was my handle back when I was a gangsta rapper, back in the day, by the way. 2 Stubb-E. Aw, yeah. Break it down, now. Sir Modusoperandi 14:42, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I understand that feeling... Okay here's what I'll do, I'll fatten the article by making it more web page like by having links and interwoven things to make it see more like a wiki article. Then I'll make minor references of related articles. I'll be back when I'm done.Hetelllies 14:16, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

About those pictures are that they seem a little vanityish to me so I dislinked them, what I think I will do is perhaps get some other picture of higher LOL to vanity ratio and place them as the intro pic or just leave it blank and hope some other contributer will come forward with a better contribution. Hetelllies 14:16, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Two words: Google Image Search. Sir Modusoperandi 14:20, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Okay how about now... I've added more content to it and added some pics.Hetelllies 03:19, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Moved. On a side note; get Firefox. It tells you when you've misspelled something. You're a bad speller. Bad! If I was your english teacher, I'd toss a blackboard eraser at you. That's what mine did to me. Eventually her hate turned to love, and we coupled. Then she went to jail. A beautiful love story, isn't it? Sir Modusoperandi 04:13, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. And I am using Firefox, it's just that I disabled the spell checker. Heheh Pederasty. Hetelllies 11:48, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Modusoperandi, formulator extravagant

Any suggestions regarding this bit? The formatting is a bit messy, due to the article's nature. What do you think? ~ 15:57, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

You may want to compress bits like the "sneaky bastard" one from a bunch of 3 word lines to a paragraph. For the "court" bit, change the typeface to Courier or somesuch. I cleaned up the spelling/grammar, put u after the o (as it's Europe, nes pas?), and frenched up the French bit for you. Sir Modusoperandi 17:12, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

You're either very tired or having a bad time, where is the usual snappy retort eh? But anyway, thanks a lot, as usual. ~ 17:36, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Well...I worked yesterday evening, I'm working today, and I'm working again tonight. On the plus side, so far this month I have 20+ hours of overtime. On the negative side, I'm more flaky than usual (worse, I have an UnTune in progress, but doubt that I'll have time to record it before PLS closes). Sir Modusoperandi 17:44, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I would have offered assistance, but I'm moving next week, and it's all hectic around here...~ 17:46, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Also, I would have probably broken multiple PLS rules and had to be deopped. ~ 17:50, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I would have accepted the offer, but for that PLS "rules" thing. Also, the only way to get it out of my head is to sing it out. Sir Modusoperandi 17:54, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
