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.

I don't mean to be picky, but I am at work and had to quickly leave my friends' page when I hit you icon. Please to be slightly more worksafe?

I'm always amused by the alarm generated by tiny icons of tits and bums in a community that has the word WANK in very large, multicoloured letters on its front page ;-)

I don't read any of the *_wank comms through the front page.

Also, two other things:

This is not actually Fandom Wank and the front page isn't bright and shiny.

The word WANK is much more worksafe for me than a picture of an ass with a finger poised to perform Kakashi's favorite ninjutsu on it.

Yes. Although I will admit that my complaint was more because I kind of really hated the picture than the NSFW thing, really.

True enough, although I tend to do all the wank communities together - might as well be hanged for a sheep as for a lamb!

Tits and bums are fine here - you can see all the tits and bums you'd ever need in your daily newspaper or other scurrilous rag, and in far more glorious detail than a tiny icon, but nobody prints the word Wank! Not even the Guardian!!

Who are you to say something is fine when the mods have already said it violates the NSFW rule?

Hey whoa whoa shut up both of you! The wank isn't meant to come over here! I changed the icon!

Now I really want to wank about it just because you told me not to.

*facepalm* Reminder to self: You're on a wank community.

Psst... my thanks above was meant for you, by the way. I just realized it looks like I'm thanking myself. *facepalm*

Because text totally is the same as a picture.

I don't think my (ex-)boss knows what wank means, anyway.

Text can be worse than a picture. A bum is just a bum, but a large, multi-coloured WANK carries a whole raft of meaning!

My boss definitely knows what it means!

I can explain that "wank" is actually a term for geeky people being silly, and has no relation to any other meaning of the word (honest!), presuming they see the 10-point type in the corner.

I can't explain why I'm staring at naked man-ass in the center of the screen.
