Hello,

I'm not sure if it's remotely what you're looking for but I thought I'd give it a shot.

:D Flannie I liked the site! not sure how I can contribute?

This site is a lot of fun. I've always got a kick out of "The Onion" and The Leaky Wiki is a great opportunity to write articles along those lines.

Here are a couple I wrote recently

I would be interested in this. However my antivirus says that your site is a known malicious site. Just thought I'd let you know that

In fairness most satire is malicious isn't it?

Only if you take it that way.

And the "malicious" bug was fixed. Sometimes browsers pick up on really small stuff that looks curious.

Putting the FU in FUNNY"
Thursday August 18th, 2012
Mr.J
GH makes an F sound, PH makes an F sound; it doesn't make sense. It's like F couldn't handle all the sounds itself.
That's why F is the lowest grade cuz it Fd up making the worst word refered to the F-word. But GH only works the f sound gig part time:
Like in the words with GH such as tough or rough its got it covered but in a word with a GH such as ghost-its taking a sabbatical.
And PH always comes through like a PH word such as phone, no problem, but PH knew it was doing the heavy lifting so negotiated for a bonus and said, "If I'm working full time, I also wanna measure the chemical balance of chlorinated water and be when we team up with the letter D, we become a doctor, not like real one that works at a hospital but a fake one that works at a college, but even though we don't get to wear a white lab coat like pharmacists (which we also spell while the alphabet literally doesn't give an F when it comes to spelling phonetically-see yet again 'phonetics' were are ya F?
Like the 4 leaf clover of letters).
However, all this being said (without the letter F used much, we might add) we've decided that we're willing to settle only on the conditional terms that we "PH", get to be called doctors even though everyone knows were not doctors, that's the deal, take it or leave it.
Sure we're not really doctors but we still get perks of the pompous pretentious prestigous prefix, "Dr", no questions asked, we have a PhD (which requires a bachelors and masters) so we don't need the 3rd degree we already have 3, including one in "Physics" which F was absent for again, so, Dr. PH from now on, we didn't go to 6 years of silent letter school of scamming to be called "Mr." PH.

Mr J, if you really think that pasting massive, unreadable, irrelevant blocks of text in completely outdated and unrelated threads is a good way of getting yourself anything other than swiftly banned, you may as well go and apply for a job in Tesco right now.

Yes. It's Yank for "round these parts".
You might see it used in some of their local/regional news stories.

(But if you've never had yank round these parts, you're probably loitering in the wrong amusement arcade)
