Aw, hells yes

If I have achieved nothing else on Wikipedia, this is the great work I have wrought. ~ Riana 23:37, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Yes, you rule!! Best. Idea. Ever. LaraLove 01:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm...

Maybe I should start an RFA for myself so I can join...Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 01:04, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Wow!

This has to be the funniest page on WP. I have the adminship, I have the robe, I have the camera, but can I put it all together and join? Lets see. Have a cool Yule guys! Geometry guy 01:03, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

G'guy, I don't think you meet the rogue requirement, but I'll make an exception for you! Haha. Do you also have the opposable thumb? If so, get that pic taken. LaraLove 01:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
Dude, you should totally join. GlassCobra 07:38, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Awesome. xD Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 14:59, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Inprov! Haha. LaraLove 15:33, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
www.bathrobecabal.org is better! Can we put Pr0n advertising at the bottom to raise funds? Dfrg_msc 23:46, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Userbox

I made a userbox - I think it sums up what we do quite nicely,

Brick.

{{User:Dfrg.msc/Userbox/Brick}} and if you are feeling extra adventurous:

Brick(s).

{{User:Dfrg.msc/Userbox/Brick(s)}} Cheers! Dfrg_msc 23:55, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

We brick? In the US, to brick is to royally fuck something up, as in an easy basketball shot. It's also an amount of heroin. Before I endorse this userbox, I demand an explanation. Haha! the_undertow talk 00:10, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
Yea, I don't get it. Does that make me a dumbass? Or is it just an Aussie thing? 'Cause you kids are effing weird. XD LaraLove 06:06, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

I created one just now for myself.

This user is not a Wikipedia administrator, but would like to be one someday so s/he can wear a Bathrobe and be cool.

Be sure to add her to the Youth Squad on the right. :) Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 23:37, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I forgot! LaraLove 06:00, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
I just thought, you should give 'em nicknames. Son of Lara, Daughter of Lara, and Son of Pedro is boring. They should be Renegade, Sweetie, and Butch. Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 07:43, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Haha, I don't know about all that. ROFL. LaraLove 17:59, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
how about, Hollywood, the Assassin and Mr Robes? Dfrg_msc 00:05, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Mr. Robes? Tight!... lol. Jmlk17 02:14, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

"Hollywood" is very appropriate for Laila. Don't know about "Assassin" or "Mr. Robes" for Jason, though. LaraLove 04:26, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
How about "Tomatoface"? :PPP GlassCobra 19:35, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Well, his infant nicknames included "Bubby", "Bubby-bo", "Snortums von Stinky-bottoms" (haha, my fave) and "Tank", which is what Chris wanted his real middle name to be. Srs. I'm srsly. I shot that shit down. But I guess I'd go with "Tank" in this case. LaraLove 17:28, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

You may have won this time... but the Tzatziki squad (top secret article: access limited to group: Greek Cabal) of the Epsilon Team doesn't give up quite that easily... · AndonicO Hail! 12:07, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Someone delete that comment from the history, it violates WP:FUN, and countless other core policies. ;) Just wanted to say sorry: I should have thought the MFD over a bit more before nominating. · AndonicO Hail! 12:07, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
AndonicO, all I can say is that policy is black and white, but editors are not. WP:NOT is policy. But if every uppercase policy, guideline, or essay were subject to the same protocol, there would be no need for AfD, XfD, nor MfD. Like in the United States, we do adhere to law. But even then, a jury will be the discretionary judge as just to how the law is to be interpreted. You don't owe anyone an apology. You did exactly what you thought was necessary under policy, and NOBODY can blame you for that. the_undertow talk 12:20, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Undertow, I apologized because I read these "gray" pages. ;) · AndonicO Hail! 13:52, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

It's chill, AnadonicO. Colors, US-centric legal speak, acronyms, no blame. All that. No worries. LaraLove 17:30, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Stipend?

I don't actually own a bathrobe, but I am interested in joining the cabal. Does the Wikipedia subsidize my bathrobe purchase? Trusilver (talk) 08:22, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, the page says they're provided, but I think we mean "provided by Target for a fee." Typically $20 for females, $30 for males. Get to it. LaraLove 18:10, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
ten dollars more for males? Sexism once again rears its ugly head... Trusilver (talk) 19:27, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Statistically, males average a higher income than females for the same positions. So stfu. XD LaraLove 19:40, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Hhahah, she's got us there, Trusilver. GlassCobra 19:50, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Bollocks. Still, I got myself a bathrobe. You will all come to fear the tartan. Trusilver (talk) 02:06, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
Awesome. New member! Submit your photo to any existing member for approval plzkthx. GlassCobra 02:50, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
Just do what a true Cabal ember would do, Strap fireworks to yourself, rob bathrobe shop with a hammock, and invade Poland (again!). Easy. Dfrg_msc 03:52, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
You're gonna need permission from France and the Vatican for that last one. O wait. I just called them. They said it's still cool. the_undertow talk 03:56, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Invading Poland has been done to death, whereas Iceland would be sure to get more press coverage. Trusilver (talk) 04:40, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Entertaining....

It made me laugh when I read this, and I agree with most of the cabal's aims. You are a teensy bit mad though aren't you? • Anakin (contribscomplaints) 13:12, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Mad like Hatter. Fo' realz. LaraLove 18:11, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, my picture is right here. Image:BRCtrusilver.jpg

Sausage Party?

We SERIOUSLY need more chicks around here. Lara's cool and all, but this is getting a bit, erm, "hairy" for my taste... --Jayron32.talk.contribs 19:57, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

I've tried. Riana doesn't want her hot pick posted (and she really is hot). However, the rule with adding more ladies is that they can't be hotter than me... so it works out that Riana won't do it... because she breaks that rule. LaraLove 19:58, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Doesn't the_undertow break that rule as well. He's kinda cute, in that Sinead O'Connor kinda way... --Jayron32.talk.contribs 20:15, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Or more recently Britney Spears, though the UT is (marginally) more psychological stable. Trusilver (talk) 20:43, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
First of all, while I agree that the_undertow is hotter than me, he's a dude, not a chick. So he doesn't count. The hotter the boys, the better. Second, I question the validity of your claim, Trusilver. The_undertow is wonderfully crazy. Haha. LaraLove 20:47, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Funny you should mention that. I just started on Venlafaxine last night. Who's stable now, my friend!? the_undertow talk 20:50, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
We've been trying to get Eliz81 and ArielGold and a couple others to join, but they've seemed pretty firm thus far. Oh well. :( GlassCobra 20:49, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
...
I support the aim, it's more challenging than invading a country (except Costa Rica). Maybe we say, hey Ladies, why don't you come and join our sweet cabal over here, or we'll block your ass back to the stone age. Dfrg_msc 23:13, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
If there admins, they will just unblock themselves, dork. I think its time to do some canvassing. the_undertow talk 23:30, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Is that tree wearing a Bathrobe? Should we make it a member of the Cabal now? --Jayron32.talk.contribs 01:39, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
The tree failed it's RfA for too few mainspace edits. Trusilver (talk) 02:17, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

What the fuck, Dfrg? Hahaha. The_undertow's pic looks uber fake. Whatev. LaraLove 03:54, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I do clothe trees in my spare time. Can that be our illicit sport or something? (Y'know, 10 points for an Elm, 30 for a willow ect. ) Ok, anyway, they can't unblock themselves if they're in the Stone Age can they? I do agree that we need more canvassing - or just outright harassment. Cheers, Dfrg_msc 07:29, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Preparing to be in Cabal

Screenshot of my character from Maple Story. FTW = For the win!

File:MapleStoryBathrobe!.JPG<-- Although uber funny, not within WP's fair use policy for use on our most illustrious cabal talk page. Sorry. LaraLove 20:13, 21 January 2008 (UTC) Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 22:57, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

ROFL!!! Hhaahahaa! That's classic! Nice. XD LaraLove 23:15, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Are Maple characters physically capable of performing a thumbs up? Like...don't you need level 100 mana? Dihydrogen Monoxide (party) 07:20, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Currently, I think no. But we're getting 4th job soon. :D Trevor "Tinkleheimer" Haworth 08:15, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Inexplicably I thought 'preparing to be in cabal' meant 'shaving of chest' - hey, it's what I'm doing. ~ Riana 08:16, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

You be careful with that. Strange things can happen otherwise. Dihydrogen Monoxide (party) 08:26, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Riana, shaved chest is optional. As you can see from the_undertow's perfect pecs, shaving of the chest is very sexy. However, as you can see from EVula's man-sweater, it's not required. XD Whatever your choice, you may want to look into chest waxing for yourself. I don't have a chest, so I don't have to worry about it. :O LaraLove 17:24, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

*confuzered* Oh well. And to be honest, I personally do not know the copyright laws of the image. It is a cropped image of a screenshot of Maple Story, what licensing is that? :D <3 Tinkleheimer TALK!! 08:10, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh yea... that's a good point. It's a copyrighted image which lacks source and fair use rationale and is not being used in an article... for all those reasons, and because non-free content can't be used in user space... and this is my userspace and non the_underscore's, it's going to have to be deleted. I'm teh sorry. LaraLove 14:43, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps one day, we'll have enough manpower/ArbCom influence to topple your regime... -- AnonymOus Someone revert Signbot when it comes along, eh? :P

Okay, there is a funneh scale, you see. The BRC scores a 14.5 out of 10, k? Keep up. So your thing there, well it's gets 4 points for being the sworn enemy of the Aussie Cabal, right, but it loses 6 points for having goals too boring to read and another 3 points for not having any color. Also, the lead is not in compliance with WP:LEAD, so that along with the improper use of dashes and hyphens, for which is loses a point for each, puts you guys at -7/10. I'm no accountant (so the_undertoes may have to double check the math), but I'm pretty sure that not only is 14.5/10 better than -7/10, but it's like total ownage to a massive degree. No? LaraLove 20:07, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
OH, it's ON!!!!. I suggest biological war. We can infect them with the funk that's growing all over the_undertow's ass. It'll keep them itching for a while, and they'll blow all of their financial resources on Tinactin. --Jayron32.talk.contribs 20:18, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
Lara, please read this page; Jayron, please read this page, particularly the part about the UFOs. Kein Fungus kann es toten. :)
Anyway, I object to the Funniness scale. First of all, we're not supposed to be funny (lol); second, it does have color: black, white, blue and purple ftw; the dashes and hyphens are grammatically correct, according to certain methods (I suggest you get out of your shell, and accept that other people may have learned from different grammar books); third, YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE A LEAD HYPOCRITES :P. · AndonicO Hail! 22:02, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
And I suggest your entire clan (no, not cabal, that's too big a word) learn to spell correctly. ;) · AndonicO Hail! 22:10, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
UPDATE: We just hit 15/10 on the funniness scale. · AndonicO Hail! 23:24, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
No. Funny will be when I successfully canvass to have your page deleted under MfD. Then, and only then, will I die knowing I have done something truly worthwhile. the_undertow talk 03:59, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Would Keilana be interested in joining the BRC. This would be advantageous since:

  • He/She's rouge enough to engage in a pointless wheel war over a stupid user subpage, just for giggles.
  • He/She has a name that ends in "ana" meaning he/she might be a she, which would increase our female membership by 100% (but cautiously garded about this posibility, re: Evula...)
  • It would be revenge for stealing our water.
  • The enemy of our enemy is our friend... --Jayron32.talk.contribs 04:22, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Lara jump ship? WTF are you g0obs talking about? I'm the original fucking recruit. Bitches, please. My ass ain't goin' no where. And if I did leave the most illustrious BRC, it wouldn't be to the cheap knockoff created by the guy that MFD'd the BRC (MY subpage). For realz, yo. I gotta smack some sense into you hos? And Jay, dude. WTF? I mean, I know Deskana, and EVula (Eee Vee You Lah, btw), and others have seemingly feminine names, but do you really not know who Keilana is? Srsly?

He may not have been an official member, but he was a rather nice house boy, you know to ring out our wet laundry, fetch us dry martinis, that sort of thing.

NC meetup maybe?

Since LaraLove has dropped out of her own meetup in Nashville, maybe we can get together a smaller meetup and invite all NC wikipedians? Is there a nice Starbucks in Mebane or something like that, which is kinda centrally located, we could get together for a few hours?

Best bathrobes in the world

http://www.towels.co.uk/asp/item_page.asp?section=&sub=&item=3159

These things are amazing. Between my wife and I we've got about six of them (in different colors and patterns.) And then we move to Las Vegas, where we almost never need anything so warm. But that's another story.

My definition of a good day: I never get out of my bathrobe. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 23:04, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

First thing, JP, submit your photo. You're pre-approved. Second, that blue one is teh nice. But considering it's more than a hundred bux more than the one I got, and mine ain't bad, I'll pass. At least for now. But if you're in Vegas and not using one, you know where to send it. ;) LaraLove 03:18, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Yeah, they are expensive as all hell. But they do last forever! I'm not sure I want to join, though; I haven't figured out the political ramifications of bathrobes. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 03:29, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Haha. It might land you at ArbCom. Fair warning. That's my goal, ya know. ;) LaraLove 06:12, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
  • When I was about eleven, I decided to get my 4-year-old brother in a bit of trouble, so I told him to go and call my 14-year-old brother a bad name indicating questionable ancestry in front of some grownups. Little brother was always willing to do what I asked, so he walks up to older brother and declares, "You're a dirty bathrobe!" It was odd to be punished by parents who could barely stop laughing. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 15:09, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
    • Ha ha! Great story; I wish I could still get away with that stuff Dfrg_msc 01:28, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

I thought *I* had the best bathrobe in the world (see photo), from Versace. (I hasten to add that I bought it at Costco for $20.) I don't know if you can tell from the photo, but it's about three times as thick as any other bathrobe I've ever seen. I've left instructions in my will that I want to be buried in it. (Yes, I'm actually serious.) I've never seen them again, but if you're wheeling a squeaky cart through Costco some day and spot a stack of them, grab them all and I'll buy them; everyone I know wants mine. (For non-North Americans, Costco is a kind of warehouse store at which one has to be a paid-up member to shop. Its patrons, me included, are cheap bastards who buy things in bulk.) Accounting4Taste:talk 15:58, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Costco is to Sam's Club what Target is to Wal-Mart. LaraLove 19:25, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
Ah, that makes hierarchical sense, I guess. We don't have Sam's Club in Canada but I think I know what you mean. And would you believe that Vancouver city council voted to deny WalMart a business license? <sigh> Which means that dedicated seekers of low-priced bathrobes have to go to the suburbs. BTW, LaraLove, totally like the hooded effect on yours; wish Versace had thought of adding a hood for those mornings when you don't want anyone to see the bloodshot eyes/bed head hair. Accounting4Taste:talk 20:48, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
"We don't have Sam's Club in Canada but I think I know what you mean." Sam's Clubs are to Wal-Mart as Costco is the Target. That should clarify for you. ;) But ya, hooded bathrobes are teh pwn. My hair is a wavy/curly mess when it's wet. Must conceal it! LaraLove 17:48, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

About that title override

Just so you know, this page has been the topic of some discussion on the Wikien-l mailing list (this thread: [1]) and a major complaint was that it appeared to be using Wikipedia resources to host an "external" website. I don't think there's anything wrong with this page myself, but that title override didn't look good in that regard. Bryan Derksen (talk) 23:42, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Gee. I'll stump up some freebie hosting on a sub domain, and replicate the whole thing there if it's an issue. However I belive the domain merely forwards here, so it's not hosting and therefore WP:NOT#MYSPACE et. al. does not apply. However if The_Undertow points the domain out (I can email him a sub doamin.) I'll set something up. Pedro :  Chat  23:54, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
I don't get it. The site is hosted on a server. I can just kill the redirect and build a quick php site or something there. the_undertow talk 01:31, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
That's how I found about the page, by the way. Kinda silly discussion. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 03:30, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
For the record I think it's kind of silly too. I'm sorry I didn't contact you guys via this talk page earlier, the title override didn't show up for me under the Classic skin so I didn't really understand the complaint myself at first. Bryan Derksen (talk) 05:54, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes. Semi-protection should work sufficiently to ward off the immature, unfunny established users that can't resist vandalizing my userspace.

Well, since Jmlk dropped out and no one else offered to let me chill at their place, I guess I'll have to change my plans.

Gig. Do0d. You have to have a bathrobe. That's non-negotiable. We're the bathrobe cabal. Not the Hanes Tee Cabal or the Wife Beater Cabal (although that would yeild equally awesome images). No, we're the BRC. Variations on the cheesy grin are acceptable, but there are none for the robe... in fact, it's pretty clearly written out that there can be no variations.

Page layout

Hey all, I like the scrolly bar that Dfrg added, but let's hear some more thoughts. Also, I don't know how the page currently looks for everyone, but on my screen, the "Hotshots" column goes down a little bit farther than the "Robes" box on the left. Is there a way for the "Credits" box to stretch across the whole page, and would this fix the problem? GlassCobra 17:10, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

I understand that users of certain web-browsers feel that users of DIFFERENT webbrowsers are lesser class of humans, and should not even speak unless spoken to; but complex formatting that shows up well in one webbrowser looks like shit in others. Without indicting myself over the piece-of-shit software I must be using, and thus labeling myself as unworthy to be a member of the human race, the page looks all fucked up. I know it looks good to some of you, but can we return it to a state where everyone, even us worthless users that use the free webrowser that came with our computer, can appreciate its sublime beauty and charm? --Jayron32.talk.contribs 17:14, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
