I see *yerf* has become trade marked - I would like to see the relevant documentation!

It's printed on the outside of your eyelids so that anyone can read it but you.

I thought it was strange at first, but I've taken a liking to the whole thing. Do whatever you want man.
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving is not for you.

He said words, not non-standard onomatopoeia.
Yes, but he lives with the ninja penguin.

As for the bolded questions, it doesn't really bother me one way or the other.

I think bolded questions do catch attention more, or at least make them more clearly understandable (if within a paragraph).

Still, it is fun to just bold random stuff. \o/

You know something...in the Parish I grew up in, the Easter Gospel had completely random bold going on in it.

So you'd get something like:

"And Pilate was all like, "Whattup, should I free this dude or Barrabus who may or may not be a werewolf?

And all the Jews did go, "The Werewolf, Big Daddy Roman Dude."

I spent ages trying to make sense of it. It was my Da Vinci Code.

Much like the Da Vinci Code, however, it was bollocks, for I asked the priest a few years ago if there was any reasoning behind it and he said that he'd just decided to play around with Microsoft Word when he was tying the leaflet up.

Good times.

So the Bible is just the screenplay for a potential blaxploitation movie?
