As the site gains popularity (translation: as I've exceeded twenty readers per day) I've decided it was time to institute some rules.  I'm not going to go dictator or totalitarian-state on on you, but a few things need to be set in stone.  Without further adieu:

1. Profanity is outlawed. Specifically, the two big, bad, four-letter words (s***, f***) are not to be tolerated.  Others will be censored on a case-by-case basis.  Words describing parts of the male or female anatomy that are not considered scientific names (and not in scientific or artistic uses) will result in a hand-slap and removal of the offending comment.  Exceptions may be made for creative phrases eluding to, but not necessarily explicitly identifying, testicles.  Because jokes about juevos are just funny as hell.
2. No slandering others, with the exception of the following: Hillary Clinton and, by proxy, Bill Clinton; Britney Spears, because that's a brand of crazy that invites abuse; any practitioner of Scientology (Tom Cruise jokes are particularly welcome); anyone who works at or above middle management in Microsoft; and me.  Come on, every one of you has had bad things to say about me.  Now's your chance!
3. Mike has final say in everything. You may not like that fact, but it's my party and I'll piss and moan if I want to.  This includes the necessary censoring of comments.  This is done in part because I try to maintain at least a slight amount of sanity around here to counterbalance, well, everything else on the site; and also because some things just aren't kosher here.  I welcome differing viewpoints, and I won't censor you simply because you disagree with me, but I will block or edit any comments that I feel are highly inappropriate — and, believe me, it takes a lot to offend me.  You would basically need to kick my grandfather in the crotch and then smile about it to tick me off.

That's really it.  The general point here is this: don't be stupid.  I hate stupid people.  All stupid people will be dealt with quickly and severely.  Beyond that, have fun.
