Cellar tag lines
 

You can do different. Any ideas?

My current sig line on the ng's promotes Cellar as "Because you need some brain food."

Ridiculous Suggestions:

Go through a variety of emotions in just one sitting

A well-organized army of talking heads

Our barks are worse than our bites

The Cellar: where the emperor gets new threads.

I dunno.. I thought it was funny. :)

The Cellar: an attempt to organise the ignorance of the community and to elevate it.

(They can't be too long... the current one is too long.)

Post and give yourself your own reason to return

It's all about you! And you and you and you and me

Patiently awaiting the dot-org bubble

As addictive as nicotine, as nutritious as mother's milk

Free wth registration: a bunch of people to talk to

Trolls, morons and spammers will be shot on sight

The Cellar: addictive as nicotine; enriching as mother's milk.

Done!

oops! we got the punctuation wrong.

The Cellar: addictive as nicotine; enriching as mothers' milk.

and it looks best with a period, or dot, at the end to close the thought, even if it is a sentence fragment. The verb "is" being implied.

I really really <b>really</b> liked "patiently awaiting the dot-org bubble"... :)

These little humorisms have a short shelf life, at best. So, it's good for everyone interested to keep thinkin' and postin' new ideas and comments here to keep the tag line fresh.

Done. "Dot-org bubble" will be next then. Nic, remind me when this one is too old...

Hahaha.. me likes

An oasis in the desert of cluelessness

Welcoming everyone except the intolerably irritating since 1990



My favorite web site tag line of all time is from The Straight Dope. Of course we'd never stoop to "borrowing" it: "Fighting ignorance since 1973 (it's taking longer than we thought)"

Fighting and ignorant since 1990. ;)

or possibly...

Irritating everyone except the intolerably welcoming since 1990.

or Madison ave style...

Its Cellarific.

an enviroment relatively nerd/porn/moron free

Vintery, mintery, cutery, corn,
Apple seed and apple thorn;
Wire, briar, limber lock,
Three geese in a flock.
One flew east,
And one flew west,
And one flew over the cuckoo's nest.

;)

The dot org bubble line is a bit tired ... IMHO.
 

Dr. Evil voice Welcome to my underground lair.

The Cellar: Assholes with Computers

(I still like the "dot-org bubble")

You have a way with words Dave. :)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A suggestion in Dave's honor:
Newbie's make great targets!

Now you're making me forget whether I actually USED "dot-org bubble". I thought I did, did I?

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah, it was used.

And it was THE GREATEST TAGLINE IN CELLAR HISTORY!

Did you come up with that or what? It was beautiful.

Thanks man.

The Cellar: we've upped our standards, so up yours.

That's awesome. OK the real reason why I haven't updated the current tag line is that after upgrading web software and not upgrading the forum software, a small piece of the administrative system *broke*. I've been too lazy to fix it. I will get around to it tonight though. I'm certain.

There, I got to it!

(That was easy!)

The Cellar: Where yesterdays tomorrow is today.

The Cellar: We're not as deep as you think.

The Cellar: When there is nothing like a fine, aged whine.

The Cellar: Where thought provoking discussion is talked about.
The Cellar: Where somebody might agree with you.
The Cellar: Because you have nothing better to do.
The Cellar: It beats doing you job.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I actually kinda like the first one.

The Cellar; Who else would let you in?

The Cellar; When your Mama turns you away.

The Cellar; When you run out of chocolate.

The Cellar; The tribe with no reservations.

The Cellar; What Elvis left the building for.

Those last two are right in the zone, imo.

The Cellar: Gimme' Shelter

The Cellar: Where age and wisdom never meet.

The Cellar: Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? We do.

The Cellar: Accept no substitutes unless you can get them really, really cheap.

The Cellar: The checkout line of the marketplace of ideas.

The Cellar: This week - Free Shipping!

The Cellar: The next best reason for the First Amendment after porn.

The Cellar: More flame than a weenie roast in Pompeii.

Excellent

The Cellar: affect means to influence, effect means result.

It's not funny, but I really think it needs to be on the front page as an everyday reminder before people will get it. Or, maybe it could be in the FAQ (if we have one).

Will putting that up effect what people write? Will the affect be good?:p

Thank you juju. I'd never heard that before; hopefully it will help me.

I'm normally very anal about such things. If I see someone use "it's" as a possessive, I can pretty much write them off as far as having any intelligence goes. So I'm constantly pissed off by the fact that I know "affect" and "effect" are commonly transposed, but I can never myself remember which is which.

Now, if someone can explain "different from" vs. "different than" in a way that sticks in my head, I'll be set.

Mistake. Never confuse ignorance with intelligence. Also sometimes people write with passion or hurriedly. I've written posts and reread them over several times, only to go back the next day to find I've written the instead of they. It's funny how, when editing you can read what you're thinking instead of what you're writing. But, maybe this only happens to me. :D

If you're hip to thourough editing, read your work from end to beginning. You'll pick up almost every mistake you've made.

Uh...sure....OK.;)

Hey, he said "almost".

And therein lies my humor.

The Cellar: Small Village, Numerous Idiots

I thought it was funny.

OK, maybe a little hyperbole on my part.

Since I "think aloud" in my head while I type, one of my most common mistakes is typing "ov" instead of "of".

Made me laugh.:D
And I was trying to cover for my stupidity.;)

From my www /wuh-wuh-wuh/ page:

The Cellar: Good ideas; bad ideas that are good.

The Cellar - Lots of 2 cents.
The Cellar - Add your 2 cents to the pot.
The Cellar - Where 2 cents makes sense.
The Cellar - Your 2 cents is not nonsense.
Sorry UT, mental diarrhea.:D

The Cellar: Welcome to the world of the overeducated and underemployed.

The Cellar: Do Not Come Near (for the teenage audience ;) )

The Cellar: It-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named

The Cellar: Join and think up a better slogan than this.

The Cellar- Your boss already hates us, why don't you?

Welcome to the Cellar, now go home!

The Cellar: Sycamore is a pussy. Please don't fuck him.

You bastard!

Play nice, boys.:(

The Cellar- Where Lassie found Timmy
