Have a dimensionally-vague kitten!

...and some punctuation. I think you may need it. ;)
Hey there! by Granz the Ice Cream Monarch on 2016-08-25 03:03:00 UTC Reply

This is a Royal Ice Cream Container! Close the lid, state the flavor you want, and then open, and tada! There it will be! Also, this doubles as a virtually invincible shield. Seriously, it'll protect you from a Divine Buster. Unfortunately, it only protects a small portion of you unless you manage to shrink yourself, so choose carefully. Oh, and this version has a slight glitch. Annoying, but I confiscated it from somebody who violated copyright law, so, somewhat expected. Anyways, every other time you open it, you'll find the butt of a gun inside, and if you pull it out, you'll find it's a perfect replica of one of Mami Tomoe's. Have fun!

Welcome [comma] welcome to the [uppercase] ppc [comma] [uppercase] I do hope you enjoy your stay [full-stop]

My gift to you is: nothing! Because you already have the greatest gift of all: friendship.
I mean, I suppose you could use some grammar and all, but I think everyone else's covered that base, eh?

Here's a full set of punctuation (including paragraph symbols) and a red pen! I swear I'm not actually with the Department of Technical Errors, I just really like their style. Enjoy your stay!

Welcome aBoard! Since everyone else has said all the stuff that needed to be said, I'll just give you this giant bee. I guess you should probably avoid pissing it off.

... Is that vulgar? If so, I'm sorry, I had no idea. (nm) by palindromordnilap on 2016-08-23 20:22:00 UTC Reply

I don't think so? by Desdendelle on 2016-08-24 18:17:00 UTC Reply

"Pissed off" might be slang but it's not vulgar. Unless there's some local slang about pissed off bees that is?

Sorta-kinda. by Neshomeh on 2016-08-24 22:04:00 UTC Reply

"Piss" is vulgar, at least here in the US. We say "pee" or "urine" if we must discuss it at all outside our closest circles (and I think it's mostly just men who use "piss" even with close friends).

"Pissed off" isn't very strongly associated with the bodily fluid, but it's still more PG-13 than PG, and not the sort of language we want to see thrown around all the time. Family-friendly versions include "ticked off," "cheesed off," "hacked off," etc. (Don't ask me why.) Best to save "pissed off" for when you really mean it, and even then, it's better to try logic before resorting to strong language to make a point.

Also, just in case anyone doesn't know this: "to be pissed" in the US means to be angry; in the UK, it means to be drunk. Know who's speaking and who you're speaking to lest there be confusion!

Well, whaddya know. by Desdendelle on 2016-08-25 12:04:00 UTC Reply

Here in Israel the equivalent of "piss" (which is slang) is commonly used and the "clean" word is only ever used in formal writing (like a doctor's diagnosis); people who want to avoid slang avoid mentioning it altogether (and say something that roughly means "small needs").

Please have this bag of black-hole chocolates. The questions were asked, so I can only wish you welcome to the madhouse. Hope you'll enjoy yourself here.

Have one of my own shed feathers, along with two jars. One is filled with punctuation, and another with capital letters! I'm sure you'll be able to find a use for all of these. ;)

May I ask what fandoms are you in, by the way?

Welcome to this corner of the Internet! Have a picture of a Bog in a Fog in a Sea. Alrighty, questions. What should we refer to you as? He, she, or something else? What works do you like? Have you read the Constitution? Or any missions? I believe you'll fit right in here. Now that I'm done here, I need to run. People will most certainly be annoyed that I stole what they usually do. AAAAAAAAH!
