Today's creepy happenings

THANKS!! But then, what does "Romans, hype off" mean? Is like"Romans, stop being mega exited!"?

it's not actually "Romans, hype off", she said "Romans, ____ off", where the blank was filled with a different 4-letter word which the forum auto-corrects to "hype" to keep the forums clean.

Do you mean it was a dirty word? 0_0

Arguably. F*** is quite common in spoken English.

It's a very useful word. So many uses!

REALLY??? (well in spanish they use also quite often a word like this, but I never use rude words, and it shocks me)

I use it all the time, just not on the forum.

Same. I live in Scotland. Words like that function as punctuation in colloquial speech.

you still use it on the forum though, even if it's not as often.

My writing style does not remotely resemble my speech patterns.

Ae dinnae wri' any'hin' li' ae tal'.

^My best approximation of how my accent sounds.

[Akonyl]

You should, though. I mean, Scottish Wikipedia does it. :V

Amusing though that is, even I find Scots-phonetic nearly impossible to read (I have to read it aloud) and I doubt it's any fun for the EFL speakers on the forum. Actually, it probably isn't fun for most of the english-speaking natives, too. I mean, Rab C Nesbitt has subtitles in England, for pity's sake.

Actually, if used sparingly, it can be quite useful. There's even a trope for that

The dude in the David Cameron mask. Just.... the dude in the David Cameron mask. David Cameron's a soulless freak anyway without being an eyeless mask.

[KawanoMino]

I swear, something JUST passed by my door.

[aly_angelflight]

I looked away from my screen for a moment, and when I looked back... my avatar disappeared!

It also sounded like someone was walking on the roof earlier...

The noises that Hurricane Bawbag is making as it rattles the windows are really creepy. Also, the lampposts are swaying so much that I swear they're going to fall over.

[Akonyl]

just came upon the creepiest license plate ever. Driving down the highway, see someone with the license plate "LOLITA"

so I think "okay hey maybe it's just a small girl/woman driver so it'll make some sorta sense, right?"

as I pass them, look in their window... it's a big dude with a huge beard :V

I'm just like "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
