With notes by [info]queencallipygos: Sexuality wank on Metaquotes. The day clearly has a Y in it
So Metaquotes exploded again. With classics like "I'm sorry that you don't find my humour funny", a few cries of "douchebag", and a whole lot of comments about whose parents are/n't gay/bi. Fun for all the family!

EDIT: Thanks.

OP, in a thread about the heartbreak of psoriasis (I'm not making that up), says something mildly amusing about how psoriasis is tough enough, but it could be worse, she could have been straight.

Someone else riffs on a doctor diagnosing heterosexuality, and that gets metaquoted. General hijinks ensue, and [info]shaysdays has a bad day, which she rectifies by starting a macro war.

And [info]queencallipygos introduces the fantastic concept of diplomacy via unrelated British Music Hall song interludes.

Thanks. :-) I got the idea from a college classmate who said that she and her friends had a tradition that, if someone in their group did something that was mildly embarrassing, someone else would start acting silly to divert attention away from them (usually by shouting something like "hey everyone, look at me!") so they could recover.

Plus they're just fun songs.

Ooh, we used to do that in my theatre studies class. Usually by pointing to something random and shouting, "LOOK! A DISTRACTION!"

My fencing club employed the catchphrase "So, fencing..." whenever things got awkward. It was used a lot.

My cluster of friends is a fan of going "Awkwaaaard."

Actually, I think you were right the first time, since cluster is a singular collective noun...
