At least one member of TBC did cover Daniel Johnston's song "Some Things Last a Long Time" under the name Mark Margarine (see http://www.thoraxcorp.com/mp3s/Mark%20Margarine/Covers%20Annex/, though they attribute it to Built to Spill instead), but you're probably right that it's too much of a stretch. --JohnnyLurg 21:03, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

I searched the wiki for other references before reverting. It still seems too much of a stretch, unless they say so in a commentary or something. — Defender1031*Talk 21:10, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

Ideas

I'm gonna throw an idea out here.

• I think I've mentioned it before but HR says a lot of unusual similes. Like "Fresh as a bagel", "Pure as a mountain goat" and "like falling of a web van". I'll try to think of more, but it seems to be a unique part of his vernacular style.

You'd probably remember examples I forgot. I was wondering if you thought this was notable and/or pageworthy. --BroncoTroll^☺ 06:05, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Interesting idea. I'll try to come up with some more. "two breads in a biscuit" is a good one. And "smack it like a newborn's biscuit". There's probably more. I'm surprised we don't have a page on it, it's a pretty clear running joke. — Defender1031*Talk 06:11, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Awesome. I'll go do some "research". I love how we can call watching cartoons "research". --BroncoTroll^☺ 06:13, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Heh. Research. I often wonder why I bother. Then I remember how much fun it is. Anyway, it's much easier to create a page for something like Confetti or Grapes, because you can just search the wiki for all occurrences of the term. These jokes which follow a similar pattern are much harder to find and much harder to ensure completeness for, and require, as you say, research. — Defender1031*Talk 06:16, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

I'll do confetti. --BroncoTroll^☺ 06:19, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Oh, the point wasn't "do confetti, don't bother with the hard ones", it was just an observation about different kinds of pages. — Defender1031*Talk 06:20, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

I mean I'll do confetti right now, since it will be quicker. --BroncoTroll^☺ 06:30, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Clean Ups

Sorry you and CatJaz have to clean up my TBD summer cleaning. I felt like the list needed to be trimmed but I guess I neglected some templates. Hopefully my "executive judgement" for merge/deletion consensus was mostly accurate. --BroncoTroll^☺ 04:43, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Also, you should really archive your talk page. It's kind of annoying to scroll all the way down. --BroncoTroll^☺ 04:50, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Looks like DeFender used to archive his talk pages annually. But, it seems he got bored of that idea seven years ago. - Catjaz63 04:53, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

It's 99 kilobytes long. That's a lot of bytes. --BroncoTroll^☺ 04:57, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

I'll do it as soon as I catch up with all your edits... If I ever can catch up. — Defender1031*Talk 04:58, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Sorry! I'll be more careful next time. Hopefully now we actually discuss these articles for discussion... --BroncoTroll^☺ 05:00, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Sorry for what? Careful about what? I rarely know what you're talking about, Coach Z. — Defender1031*Talk 05:02, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

For the inconvenience I guess. Er, gyorse. ;) --BroncoTroll^☺ 05:10, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Okay, I finally caught up with both your edits and my own talk page archive. Level up! — Defender1031*Talk 06:08, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Ding! Good prize. Also, nice nickname summary thing. May I ask what "1031" is? --BroncoTroll^☺ 06:10, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

IT'S PERSONAL!!!! It's my birfday. — Defender1031*Talk 06:21, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Oh. I could have sworn it was the last four digits of your dog. --BroncoTroll^☺ 06:26, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Nah, those are "O-M-E-T". — Defender1031*Talk 06:29, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Ooh, pick me! Comet for 500 points! --BroncoTroll^☺ 06:30, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

WTC

With regards to my "what the heck" edit, I thought I was reverting the image and summarizing recent changes. Apparently I just changed the image summary. --BroncoTroll^☺ 20:06, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
