Tim we need a template button on the little toolbar that when you put in a word it will grab words from a thesaurus and fill in the quote by itself.

That would be awesome. I won't be taking the time to build it, but it would be awesome.

Besides it would wear it out. With the slight amount of effort needed to find it, copy it, alter it and then post it. It retains the comedic effect that it has. Otherwise any Hong could do it and then where would we be?

I couldn't love GRM the magazine or the website more, and believe me, I don't like to be the P.C police or anything or the guy who has a problem with everything thing, but I do have a problem with this...

I find it a bit offensive that you use terms like “Hong” etc etc... for your little descriptions or whatever in the avatars. I myself do not build crazy Hondas, nor do I drink outlandish amounts of cheap beer, but I feel sensitivity for people who do as I am a student taking Hong classes, and my Girlfriend is pursuing her masters in the field.

These terms although I'm pretty sure are not even real words, are obviously meant to resemble the words used to describe people with alcohol induced automotive aspirations, and it appears that they are used on these boards in a joking sense which, as I view it, makes light of people who are afflicted with automotive disabilities.
