User talk:Modusoperandi

Welcome to my talkpage. New stuff at the bottom, please.

Fury Road[edit ]

Welcome back! Your new UnScripts: is mentioned on the main page. Spıke 🎙️ 03:41 17-Dec-15

Thanks. You're mentioned on the main page of my heart. I'm pretty sure it's you, anyway. Do you cause shooting pains down one side of the body? Modusoperandi (talk) 04:12, December 17, 2015 (UTC)

Yes, it's me; when Wikia assimilated our user name database this summer, they allowed me to poach the name of a Spike who registered in 2006 and made no edits, so I no longer have to SHOUT it. The shooting pains would be something else. Spıke 🎙️ 04:35 17-Dec-15

Oh. I thought you just had a sore throat. Modusoperandi (talk) 22:32, December 17, 2015 (UTC)

You're back! If it weren't for my dementia, I'm sure I would have pleasant memories of stuff. And things. The previous edit was by PuppyOnTheRadio (Talk).

Moving pages[edit ]

In case you haven't been I the loop, we've ended up stopping non-admins/rollbackers from being able to move pages recently, so as an adminny thing I've been putting together a Uncyclopedia:Request for Move (UN:RFM). I'm not wanting to dump admin stuff on you when you've just poked your head in the door, but if you wanted to give feedback on the work so far chuck something on it's talkpage. The previous edit was by PuppyOnTheRadio (Talk).

Why'd you do that? Moving pages was the best. Why, back in the day, after a hard day's work admin'ing, at Bar Uncyclopedique we'd recount all the pages we moved.

I'm pretty sure I'm not an admin here anymore. I went mad with power. Nonetheless, it looks fine to me. Still, seems odd. Did I ever tell you about the time I moved a talkpage? Bastard gave me this scar right here on my thumb. Modusoperandi (talk) 01:50, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

We got tired of page move vandals, and this seemed the easiest way to deal. Being a likewise non-admin, and hardly here, I don't do much about vandalism, so didn't bother me one way or the other. I tried to go mad with power, and then realised that I'd already peaked. The previous edit was by PuppyOnTheRadio (Talk). 01:59, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

Modus, you won't think it's the best when you find that this page gets moved to a junk name, through about ten other junk names, with one intervening edit so that if we ever find it we lose the history. You are not an Admin (I think you gave it up yourself over black coffee one morning) so we are down to 29. I argue for fewer at Forum:Deopp the very inactive?. I am not sure about Pup's use of vandals, plural. Spıke 🎙️ 02:01 20-Dec-15

I'm for no admins. None! Anarchy! Who's with me?! /me rushes out, burns police car, is arrested Modusoperandi (talk) 02:26, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

I'm more into small scale anarchy. /me unpairs all the socks and puts them back in the sock drawer in no specific order The previous edit was by PuppyOnTheRadio (Talk). 02:37, December 20, 2015 (UTC)

Under development, adopted off VFD: User:Cg097/The Place Where All The Missing Socks Go. Spıke 🎙️ 02:43 20-Dec-15

Special offer[edit ]

If I arrange a writing competition, would you like to be a Guest Celebrity Judge? Spıke 🎙️ 16:28 16-Jan-16

That depends on when it is and if it's catered. Modusoperandi (talk) 17:10, January 16, 2016 (UTC)

When it is, is now at Forum:First writing competition of 2016. I can promise a photograph of a great buffet spread. Spıke 🎙️ 17:23 16-Jan-16

Looking at the timings, February's good for me. I should have parole by then. Unless Los Dos Nachos try to shiv me in the yard again. Then I'll be late. Toughest gang in the yard, they are. They pretty much wiped out Los Pimientos Picantes. Gangs here have weird names. They aren't even Mexicans. I mean, the leader of the Nachos is Bjorn Njorngenherdle. Come on! Modusoperandi (talk) 19:54, January 16, 2016 (UTC)

I thought youse's only gang was in the next province over. Spıke 🎙️ 20:04 16-Jan-16

Have you read any of the series at UnNews regarding the Sinaloa Dance Cartel? Would you like me to put out the call for additional contest judges? Spıke 🎙️ 20:05 16-Jan-16

You're running the contest. The judges are up to you. Try not to go mad with power. Modusoperandi (talk) 23:17, January 16, 2016 (UTC)

That is what I like, when someone tells me I am the boss and would be a tyrant only if I do not boss as they see fit! I will follow the cardinal rule, The more the merrier. Spıke 🎙️ 03:35 17-Jan-16

Good luck. I ran the Poo Lit Surprise once. It drove me bald. Modusoperandi (talk) 04:38, January 17, 2016 (UTC)

The only problem I have had in the past is when child editors act out just before the deadline of a contest (just as child children act out just before their birthday party because they know the banquet hall is rented out). They think I can't administer discipline for fear of spoiling the special event. Hah! Anyway, I have listed you as a judge and posted to Codeine and ChiefjusticeDS. Active Admins might also judge, though they might contribute instead. Spıke 🎙️ 05:00 17-Jan-16

It is time for you to do some paper-grading, following one of the two suggested schemes in the Intro of Forum:2016 Uncyclopedia Super Bowl. Spıke 🎙️ 03:31 8-Feb-16

I'm all over it like a guy with a concussion who couldn't read good even before that and also falls down sometimes. Modusoperandi (talk) 06:31, February 8, 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for being a celebrity judge Mr Modusoperandi, glad you enjoyed my entry!  EStop Press here for Room Service ⚓ 09:57, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

No problem. If there is one thing I enjoy, it's judging other people. Modusoperandi (talk) 16:32, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

Being judged, I now know how potential award winning runner beans feel, a bit green.  EStop Press here for Room Service ⚓ 16:37, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

Women? Oh goody! Mind you, last time I tried to show a woman my ninjastar I got a hob around the ear.  EStop Press here for Room Service ⚓ 17:06, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

It was a pleasure to serve alongside you once again, Modus. For over a thousand generations, we were the guardians of peace and justice in the old Uncyclopedia... before the dark times... before the empire. -- Codeine (talk) 20:32, February 14, 2016 (UTC)

Springtime writing contest[edit ]

Would you like to help judge our next writing contest? Spıke 🎙️ 10:22 28-Mar-16

Sorry, I can't. No time right now. My condo has an infestation of the cast from the Love Boat. I'm having a devil of a time getting Isaac out from behind my couch. Plus, there's Doc shit everywhere. Modusoperandi (talk) 14:45, March 28, 2016 (UTC)

Yikes! Well, thanks for the quick response. Recommend you sail away from the Doc and threaten to throw the visitors overboard. Spıke 🎙️ 15:27 28-Mar-16

UnScripts:Alien Covenant [edit ]

Hi Modus. Is that the sum of the article? Hoping there is more to come. --Laurels.gif RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 10:24, August 14, 2017 (UTC)

Sorry. I think that's it. That was my reaction to that dumb, dumb, movie. I was hoping Ridley Scott would learn from the mistakes of the first one, but instead he doubled down on them. Modusoperandi (talk) 22:24, August 14, 2017 (UTC)
