The "In" Jokes
By: animaniactoo Date: February 20, 2022, 7:46 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
One of the bars to wading into any community of peeps who have
been chatting for awhile - even if you used to be part of the
group - is seeing the in-jokes and not understanding why they're
a joke. So... I figured I'd round up some of the most common
ones and list them here, and others can add whatever they think
of.
Note: The ONLY in-jokes that will be referred to here are
on-going jokes among forum members that are general topics.
Anything that refers to a particular member's family or personal
life is not acceptable for general airing in this thread (and
will be removed unless posted by that member themselves,
signifying their comfort with it), those ones will have to come
up and be explained more organically. In the meantime...
[hr]
• Hazelnut Coffee - 98% of the forum apparently hates it and
will murder you if you try to serve it to them. Ani will take
all of their share.
• Tea - One day LabPartner missed typing a "T" in the title of
the daily thread, and AbidingDude tried to give it to him via a
gif of a cup of tea, and the board turned into lengthy
conversation of everyone's favorite teas.
• The Shawl Closet. We ran a poll for additional name categories
for numbers of posts (we don't take numbers of posts seriously
here and therefore decided to mock the categories instead and
have fun with them), and one of the options that was chosen was
"Yenta" and THEN people spoke up and protested, and AD was out
shopping for shawls on Amazon as he was one of the first to hit
Yenta. TwoAsapsAgo apparently has an AMAZING assortment of
shawls, and couldn't be bothered with all the requests for
loans, so Muskrat applied for the job as her Ad-Minion and now
works for her. Muskrat is in charge of supplying forum (virtual)
Snax and taking applications to browse through The Shawl Closet.
ETA: I was informed by TwoAsaps that I forgot that Muskrat also
adores Hazelnut coffee and that coffee drinkers may apply for
temporary asylum in their corner suite, which has its own
kitchen, for a safe space to enjoy their hazelnut coffee.
• "Lives Here" Member Status - when you hit this, lots of people
claim a room in our imaginary residence here and talk about the
accoutrements and how they're planning on decorating. Catdancing
is in charge (like, I just this very moment put her in charge)
of real estate shopping and decor advice. Others can definitely
be counted on for opinions.
• Pizza - raging debate about NYC style pizza vs Chicago style
and the benefits and technique of folding your crust vs is it
even really pizza if you're eating it with a fork and a knife?
• Pantyhose. Another raging debate day about whether pantyhose
are still in or not, stylish or not, necessary or not.
GenuineKosherDill fought valiantly for her side, but the
majority of the women here appear to be more than happy to never
wear hose again in their lives under (almost) any circumstances.
• Pie. Abiding Dude loves pie. Cake? What's that. Forget cake.
Give him a pie anytime. If cake or pie is mentioned in his
earshot/in reference to him, you can be sure there will be a
joke about it.
• Birthday remembrances. acl-ny is often the person who keeps
track and remembers people's birthdays. One day, she messed up
and posted birthday greetings on the wrong day, and was covered
in shame, but quickly recovered when somebody mentioned that she
had ONE JOB and promptly fell over laughing. So when it comes to
birthdays and any responsibilities that acl mentions, she has
ONE JOB.

• The splooshing - for the site's one-year anniversary we had a
virtual party in a thread which included a game of Spy Vs Spy
where people could hire a couple of assigned hitmen for 1
virtual dollar to dump buckets of water over people's heads
(virtually, via a personal message notifying them that it had
happened).
People really got into it, and there was a lot of splooshing.
Convo about it carried on even after it was over, and I add this
here because I expect that it will come up again.

Thanks for the splooshing explanation. I missed the beginning
and the party. All those water gifs were funny even missing a
few connections tho.

• Termination Level Event - this was an accidental occurrence by
[member=17]AbidingDudev4.1[/member] when a temp in his office
came in and yelled at him, and he responded by asking the temp
if he understood that this was a "termination level event".
Apparently his office wasn't going to let him live that phrasing
down and now that he shared it with us, we're not going to
either.

• Floor snacks.
Muskrat is ALWAYS hungry, and will beg to have her "pie-hole"
filled. She describes being desperate enough for food that she
does not care if something has fallen on the floor, she will
happily take floor snax. Apparently Floor Snax are delicious.
She is also willing to share. Probably. Maybe. Um. Are you sure
you wanted that hand?
