| The "In" Jokes | |
| By: animaniactoo Date: February 20, 2022, 7:46 pm | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| One of the bars to wading into any community of peeps who have | |
| been chatting for awhile - even if you used to be part of the | |
| group - is seeing the in-jokes and not understanding why they're | |
| a joke. So... I figured I'd round up some of the most common | |
| ones and list them here, and others can add whatever they think | |
| of. | |
| Note: The ONLY in-jokes that will be referred to here are | |
| on-going jokes among forum members that are general topics. | |
| Anything that refers to a particular member's family or personal | |
| life is not acceptable for general airing in this thread (and | |
| will be removed unless posted by that member themselves, | |
| signifying their comfort with it), those ones will have to come | |
| up and be explained more organically. In the meantime... | |
| [hr] | |
| � Hazelnut Coffee - 98% of the forum apparently hates it and | |
| will murder you if you try to serve it to them. Ani will take | |
| all of their share. | |
| � Tea - One day LabPartner missed typing a "T" in the title of | |
| the daily thread, and AbidingDude tried to give it to him via a | |
| gif of a cup of tea, and the board turned into lengthy | |
| conversation of everyone's favorite teas. | |
| � The Shawl Closet. We ran a poll for additional name categories | |
| for numbers of posts (we don't take numbers of posts seriously | |
| here and therefore decided to mock the categories instead and | |
| have fun with them), and one of the options that was chosen was | |
| "Yenta" and THEN people spoke up and protested, and AD was out | |
| shopping for shawls on Amazon as he was one of the first to hit | |
| Yenta. TwoAsapsAgo apparently has an AMAZING assortment of | |
| shawls, and couldn't be bothered with all the requests for | |
| loans, so Muskrat applied for the job as her Ad-Minion and now | |
| works for her. Muskrat is in charge of supplying forum (virtual) | |
| Snax and taking applications to browse through The Shawl Closet. | |
| ETA: I was informed by TwoAsaps that I forgot that Muskrat also | |
| adores Hazelnut coffee and that coffee drinkers may apply for | |
| temporary asylum in their corner suite, which has its own | |
| kitchen, for a safe space to enjoy their hazelnut coffee. | |
| � "Lives Here" Member Status - when you hit this, lots of people | |
| claim a room in our imaginary residence here and talk about the | |
| accoutrements and how they're planning on decorating. Catdancing | |
| is in charge (like, I just this very moment put her in charge) | |
| of real estate shopping and decor advice. Others can definitely | |
| be counted on for opinions. | |
| � Pizza - raging debate about NYC style pizza vs Chicago style | |
| and the benefits and technique of folding your crust vs is it | |
| even really pizza if you're eating it with a fork and a knife? | |
| � Pantyhose. Another raging debate day about whether pantyhose | |
| are still in or not, stylish or not, necessary or not. | |
| GenuineKosherDill fought valiantly for her side, but the | |
| majority of the women here appear to be more than happy to never | |
| wear hose again in their lives under (almost) any circumstances. | |
| � Pie. Abiding Dude loves pie. Cake? What's that. Forget cake. | |
| Give him a pie anytime. If cake or pie is mentioned in his | |
| earshot/in reference to him, you can be sure there will be a | |
| joke about it. | |
| � Birthday remembrances. acl-ny is often the person who keeps | |
| track and remembers people's birthdays. One day, she messed up | |
| and posted birthday greetings on the wrong day, and was covered | |
| in shame, but quickly recovered when somebody mentioned that she | |
| had ONE JOB and promptly fell over laughing. So when it comes to | |
| birthdays and any responsibilities that acl mentions, she has | |
| ONE JOB. | |

| � The splooshing - for the site's one-year anniversary we had a | |
| virtual party in a thread which included a game of Spy Vs Spy | |
| where people could hire a couple of assigned hitmen for 1 | |
| virtual dollar to dump buckets of water over people's heads | |
| (virtually, via a personal message notifying them that it had | |
| happened). | |
| People really got into it, and there was a lot of splooshing. | |
| Convo about it carried on even after it was over, and I add this | |
| here because I expect that it will come up again. | |

| few connections tho. | |

| � Termination Level Event - this was an accidental occurrence by | |
| [member=17]AbidingDudev4.1[/member] when a temp in his office | |
| came in and yelled at him, and he responded by asking the temp | |
| if he understood that this was a "termination level event". | |
| Apparently his office wasn't going to let him live that phrasing | |
| down and now that he shared it with us, we're not going to | |
| either. | |

| � Floor snacks. | |
| Muskrat is ALWAYS hungry, and will beg to have her "pie-hole" | |
| filled. She describes being desperate enough for food that she | |
| does not care if something has fallen on the floor, she will | |
| happily take floor snax. Apparently Floor Snax are delicious. | |
| She is also willing to share. Probably. Maybe. Um. Are you sure | |
| you wanted that hand? | |
