TB — 11/17/2008 6:02:18 AM (archived)

"They be stealing my..." shows up in a number of phrasings from others who have swiped the gag. It seems to be popular with gamers.

But guess who's number one!

Here it is in the Urban Dictionary.

Bowser has expressed an honest concern, but I don't think it's going to be a real problem. Keep the post.

  - Much ado over a little bit of decency. Enough of them and it's no longer a slur? - Bowser - 11/17/2008 7:14:41 AM
- Upon reflection, while acknowledging TBs innocent intentions, removing a racial slur subject line seems common sense. - Bowser - 11/17/2008 3:19:43 AM

- Hey, Moderator! - Bowser - 11/16/2008 9:37:11 PM
  - I'll remove it if TB asks me to, but I think the apology speaks for itself. - Mary Anne - 11/16/2008 11:33:35 PM
    - I suspect it's not simply a TB issue. It's on the 'Zone. - Bowser - 11/17/2008 2:37:55 AM
