Pajiba

It sounds like he says "Ameri-kesh". Funny.
And now I shall go eat some Artisan Cheese.

How many comments before this one will never be seen because they cheekily included all those spam phrases? HOW MANY, DUSTIN?

My God, the temptation is overpowering to use one of tehse banned words.

But how do I get around the filter?

By the way, what is f*g go try? Is that one of those new hip phrases, like "child please" or "that's so gay" or "deal with it"?

By the way, I also hate the word "cant". Its a word for losers and failures.

Marry me Brian Williams.

By the way, how many times do I have to use by the way to get by the way banned?

And I'm ok with banning "****ionaires", just so long as Stallionaires is not banned. Holla at yo boy.

Re: the closed-to-being-banned-commenter: I'd check out the recent Pajiba Love posts, that's where my money is.

The city I'm closest to is #5, Reno. I'll bet if this included small towns we'd be pretty high on the list where I live. We're just like Reno only much smaller, much less to do here besides drink and more income to buy booze with.

Brian Williams made an appearance on Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me several months back, and was awesomely humble and funny. It doesn't surprise me at all that he rocked Jon Stewart and Tina Fey.

He doesn't impress me at all as a journalist - his talents are much like Mike Rowe and Tom Bergeron - but he's an awesome dude anyway.

Crap, I recently used one of the banned words in the last Pajiba Love comment section.

Pajiba is a c**l, g**d d*ating s*te where you can find an agel*ssmate milli*naires who wears the latest fashi*nbags (seriously people buy that shit? this world is coming to an end)
The c*unts here are the best you can find and they'll make you squ** and yell for more.
eL-Oh-eL
Just trying them out. Haven't used them all, but I'm sure some of you lovable bastards will.
Yes, I am a lurker and I salute you.

In news that somebody must care about, Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye will do a cameo in the upcoming Thor.

Is this your way of punishing me for taking the week off?

You're such an asshole.

Stallionaires. Heh.

He's a Stallionaire; he has A MILLION STALLIONS!

Genghis Khan was, in fact, the original Stallionaire. After achieving moderate musical success throughout the Mongol Empire, he then went on to star in his own vh1 produced reality TV show, "U Khan Be My Ho," in which 20 virgins competed for the chance to be his loveslave.

Oswalt's article made me smile and smile. What a mind.

For etymology purposes only Rowles, is the word ni**as banned also.

Ninjas aren't banned. They're just hiding.

U Khan Be My Ho

The first reality dating show I will ever fully support.

Paultera - let me guess. Elko?

You just put a list of words I now must use in the course of these postings.

Good game, Dustin, good game.

thatstrangewoman,

Why, yes. Been here?

I'm still trying to figure out why Laughing Out Loud is banned, though.

Mainly because it's a frequently used phrase in spambot posts, and thus banning it is an easy way to weed those out.

Also, because it's fucking annoying.

Dustin really has a secret fear of abbreviations that convey cheerfulness. Acronymirthophobia. That medevac roflcopter crash scarred him for life.

Forty four posts so far and I can't believe no one has commented on Tucker Carlson's wish that Michael Vick had been executed. I mean, I know fooling around with a list of banned words is fun and all, but don't we still have the capacity to be appalled? I'm pretty jaded but Carlson's rant doesn't seem to have given many people pause. Politics aside, Carlson's more useless than insightful but he's not typically a flame-thrower and can't easily be dismissed as such. Perhaps the whole thing isn't sufficiently tidy or straight-forward.

(And I'm a liberal who thinks that many of the Salon.com writers and reader-commenters are cranky ideologues...)

I totally agree sansho1, hence why I still love this site, and Dustin. It's because I know if I don't act like a complete f*ckwad we can disagree and still be cool. I'm just not a fan of any form of censorship. But I get the control issues, and they're probably a big reason why Pajiba has a great comments section.

But I don't have to like the method.

Oswald writes, "Everything we have today that’s cool comes from someone wanting more of something they loved in the past."

I don't think that's exactly right. It's not wrong certainly, but he's discounting inspiration. I might change his comment to read, "Everything we have today that's cool comes from someone wanting more or becoming inspired by something they loved in the past." People aren't just hungry for more content; they're inspired to create. This is where the individual glimmer really shines.

By becoming exposed to more music, more writing, more ways of thinking (ranging from philosophy, religion or fan-boy nonsense) we expand our minds and grow exponentially. Our potential explodes, and the art we create in the future reflects a variety of different influences rather than the myopic perspective of the past.

I enjoyed that article; thanks for posting it. I don't agree with everything, but thanks to the internet I've been privey to a new way of thinking and a new subject to dwell on.

That's exactly what I was thinking, superasente. Yeah, we have the Hitler/Downfall meme, but that isn't the entirety of pop culture, much less all culture (which is basically pop culture now). A lot of the mash-up type stuff he describes are really just hi-tech collages. It's just one of the effects of living in a super-modern society.

I'm just gonna try out and see if this thing really works.

Ehem...THE SHERIFF IS A NI-*BING*

Edit: It does!

Brian Williams made an appearance on Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me several months back, and was awesomely humble and funny.

I was at that taping - at Carnegie Hall no less - and there was so much more that didn't make it into the show. Here's a blog post (not mine) about the show. I'm not surprised he was a crackup in the clip above, on Wait Wait he was hysterical. Everyone was laughing out loud.

Tucker Carlson was a denatured pig when he was on Crossfire, and since he's still cadging about for a steady job at Fox he has to ratchet up the lunacy to near-astronomic levels.

What Vick did was reprehensible, and he went to prison for it. That was the penalty, and he was duly punished. Boom. End of story. After getting out of the joint, it was up to Vick to find steady employment and get his life back on track - which he seems to have done.

Did it warrant execution? Nope.

Funny, though - his goddess, Sarah Palin, shot down a defenseless moose. Will he call for her execution as well? Or is this yet another example of the false equivalency that is part of the stock in trade?

First off.....who is Tucker Carlson? Is he one of those "Oh we need someone who can make the actual reporters look less stupid," cases they bring out on occasion? And since when does Michael Vick need to die? The guy did his time, realized he screwed up, and apologized, and now has turned the dog thing into something good. So where does this goomba who thinks he has the right to judge our issues, come forth and say "DIE VICK DIE!?!"

secondly.....GI Joe....how about we forget about that. Yes, I realize that it was good as a cartoony series and all that, but why are supporting cast/cannon fodder even making a list, especially on CRACKED?!!

Thirdly.....Candace.....that's old news...

The Human Centipede done with the cast of The Hills and directed by the Coen brothers.

I enjoyed that part, but I couldn't really get behind the whole article.

Oh and I lawled at thelastpageoftheexcitingadventuresoftheforceunstoppable.

I'm not a fan of censorship, but context is important. It bothers me when the Comedy Network censors the word f*g in episodes of Kids in the Hall. Especially when it butchers Scott Thompson sketches. On a website where any anonymous person can spew hate, I can understand. Especially after reading the comments of the person I assume was cutting it close to being banned. Or even in the case of the asshole that was banned.

Looks like Spambot will not be deterred, Dustin.

Spambot is a kunt who has somehow managed to outwit the seemingly complex filter and now shows up everywhere! IoI!

" though someone else is cutting it close."

OK, I know they're boring. I'll try to do better in 2011.

Why is it always the vowel that gets the *? Huh? Why can't you pick on the n instead? Why can't it be cu*t? *obody really likes the n. Fu*k the n.* It's half the letter an m is.

You must be some kinda vowel *azi, Mr. Dusti*. I urge my fellow commenters to stand up against vowel prejudice. All it takes for evil to flourish is for good people to do *othi*g.

Who's with me? Dow* with vowel haters!

*--Yeah, that DOES read "funk the n."

@The Wanderer: If only denatured pork products were edible, we'd have a good start at decreasing food shortages across the globe.

I'm with TSF about the banning of 'cunt'. I'm not Scottish, but as a Londoner, I get it. It's a funny word, and I use it a lot, too.

Over here it's funny, anyway. I understand that you colonials take it more seriously, and don't apply it indiscriminately to men, women, animals, objects, bad weather, and unlucky turns of fate, as we do. Instead, you reserve it for use as the worst thing you can call a woman. This is a sad, sad misuse of a fine old Saxon word!

Ya miserable cunts, ya.
