Use your judgement, brosef.

 

Most of us here are grown ups here and probably use such language in our everyday lives.

 

Rules are rules though. *shrug*

Like if I get creative with my spelling, or quote famous works of literature that are considered part of our literary canon, revered by literary community, but they happen to say bad things, would I catch a lot of flak?

 

Yes.

Probably will catch flak anyway.

This place operates under a tyrannical oligarchy. Not having any individual rights or independent thought is quite liberating.

You can swear from WoT, so stuff like

 

Wool headed lummox

 

Milk faced vixen

 

Blood and bloody ashes...

 

There's a link below if you're interested :smile:

I want to run a movie quote mafia where you can only communicate in movie quotes.  Pretty much how every dude I know communicates on a daily basis when it comes to emotional stuff anyway.

 

Exhibit A [watching MNF this week]:

 

Buddy - "Friggin Eli. This game is over."

 

Me - "What? Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!"

 

^^I was crying. On the inside.

 

 

I love this idea.  Please do it.

Go Shakespeare or WoT

 

If you think it's gonna cause a problem but you think you're being super clever and it won't count then you're probably onto a loser.

 

There are times to test the boundaries and this isn't going to be one of them.

 

Expand your vocabulary.

 

There are other verbs that can be used to describe actions.

 

if you use the verb you're thinking of, then you will not be thinking of the Verb you should be thinking of, and you will be in BIG trouble.

 

He was very annoyed recently.

This place sucks.

I can PM you a link to a list of words we can't use as demonstrated by George Carlin, if you wish.

I need these rules made explicitly clear to me. Preferably in writing, in a non-arbitrary forum, in case I feel tyranny is reigning.

Read Roman numerals I and II, that should explain.  They are a little more lenient on the language than it suggests, but think of it as like ....talking to a 8 year old kid of someone whose opinion you care about.  Don't use words you wouldn't use in front of them.  

 

 

 

I swear like a sailor IRL, for the record, but these are the rules here :).

Maybe after my first game. I think I'd realistically have to allow like 5-10 words per image, though.

^knows what's up

Pretty much.

The first part not the second.

Yep.

 

A lack of profanity is not indicative of a greater of vocabulary.

 

I can feel the Mafia arguments ramping up already.

Please tell me where you play mafia.

I need to be free of the constraints placed on me by this site.
