I'd have gone with sock puppets instead of off-brand Muppets for that low-budget Sifl and Olly goodness.

Hope the mods are in a good mood Gordon Bennett

(I've seen people banned for merely referring to Goatse in Photoshop threads, and yes, they weren't even using imagery from the site in question).

So, are you going to get banned for mentioning it?
Will I be banned for quoting you?

Aw geesh.

Beautiful. It's got a lot of potential. It's simply a matter of being absurd.

When Warren Buffet dies, he could do no greater deed for the people of this nation than to establish a foundation that airs puppet court and pupper C-SPAN for eternity.

"Cleveland city of lights, city of puppets". Althought technically the puppets are representing Akron.

I don't know, maybe. It's been a fun ride Fark!

(seriously, if a post is deleted all posts quoting it go too, I don't think you'd get banned for having a post disappear from someone else getting moderated. Also, what is objectionable and what isn't is often a judgement call by the mods; some are more strict than others).

I can't imagine the giant balls it must have taken to pitch this idea to the News Director.

Puppets?? I half expected Sweetums and Harry Monster from the Muppets/Sesame Street to be in the corner as baliffs. God help the defendant who gets Oscar the Grouch as the Judge.

It wouldn't be my first ban. Agree or disagree, if I have to I'll sit another without complaint.

Try to imagine the slow transition of expression on the directors face, from "Wtf, you can't be serious" incredulity, to "why are paying this creature" contempt, to "Holy shiat, it's... brilliant" awe.
