The Right and Left Honourable Reverend Major Sir Zim_ulator KUN EGA PC FP WotM HA is pleased to welcome you to his humble talk page.
Hello![edit]
I guess we left the side door open again! Did you get my email of January 6? Spıke Ѧ 18:28 14-May-13
- Hey buddy! How goes it? I cannot recall if I got your email, as I haven't been doing well for some time. I have some hope that things are slowly improving in that area, however. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 19:23, May 14, 2013 (UTC)

- Despite my strict adherence to Zim Buddhist principles concerning ego decimation, I am flattered by the big deal made of my reincarnation. While I have your attention, I am looking for investors for an ale, Belching Hyena Stout. "Ya gotter ave bollocks ta drink it, mate!" Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 13:33, May 15, 2013 (UTC)

Yo man[edit]
Thanks for the compliment on cunt decoration. It is among my best 5 in my own view. Also, hi. Don't know if you knew but I'm editing on the renegade site for the perfect reason that my humour goes down on that side of the rift without complications of any kind. Just wrote about Bat Fuck Afternoon and Bat Fuck Arsebattery. See you on IRC if you happen there some day! I'm usually on about this time of the day and any time during the next 15 hours or so. -- Style Guide 03:47, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
Gossip[edit]
- I gossip about you at User talk:Anton199#Is this the City Desk?--namely, I suggest to this UnSignpost writer that your re-lay-out of the UnNews Front Page is newsworthy and encouraging to cub un-reporters.
- As I state in the Change Summary: The second paragraph of most of my UnNewses is background, played straight, by way of inducing the uninformed reader to read further. I picked other text for the Front Page summary that's actually funny.
- I am enthused that you thought better of randomizing the Source in my article on Manny Ortez. Spıke Ѧ 20:17 18-May-13
- As to item 3, I inadvertently changed the Manny Ortez Source. I probably should have explained that in my edit summary, but I thought of it after I saved it. Being lazy, of course I said "fuck it" and went about my business. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 01:55, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
- As to item 1, I am flattered, needless to say. Or flatulent... nope, that was my dog. Poor Scott needs to relax. I'm afraid reading some of your conversations here can have an effect opposite your intentions. I find myself having to reread them to be sure as I can that I understand you correctly. Item 2? OK. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 02:08, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
Along the same (hopeful) lines, I added you to the table at UN:AA. Two of us have substituted signature files for name-templates. If you are reluctant to declare yourself a possible target of user requests, just delete your lines. Spıke Ѧ 03:11 19-May-13
- We'll see how it goes. My "dipping toes in the water" seems to be your "dove in". The immediate future depends on how I do with this latest change in medications. Over the longer term, things will depend on how I manage my pain. Cheers. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 03:23, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
Email hacking[edit]
I have email today from two of your addresses, each of which do not seem to know about the other conversation. Please identify (by content) which of them is you. Spıke Ѧ 17:49 19-May-13
- They are both me. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 23:26, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
'ello[edit]
And you're a "sight" for some eyes (two). Hi, and I haven't said hi since that time at band camp over at illogicopedia. Hope all is well. Are you still doing those cartoons with the turtle? Aleister 23:46 19-5-'13
- Hey dude! Speaking of band camp, I finally got that tuba out of my nostril. I recently started making toons again, and will probably do some Turtle and Goat just for you. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 23:55, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
Sprite comic on VFD[edit]
PuppyOnTheRadio has nominated Sprite comic for deletion. It is totally indefensible. However, as you are the site's primary creator of sprite comics, you might want to have something at this name. (I don't think you want this particular one copied to your userspace.) Spıke Ѧ 11:45 21-May-13
Your signature[edit]
is rendering everything from following posts on the page <SMALL>
. I've gone in twice to edit it; all I can figure out is that you have code in My preferences to make the timestamp small too, without a cancel at the end. Spıke Ѧ 17:31 21-May-13
- Wow, man... look at the colors! Ooooh! And the tracers! I have discovered how to inject hallucinogens into wiki code! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 18:19, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
- Can you show me where to go and see this in action? In any case, I think I've fixed it. Thanks for pointing it out. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 18:30, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
Yup, I saw it at VFD, s/absinthe/
. But it's no longer doing it. Spıke Ѧ 18:41 21-May-13
- Interesting. That error in my code might be related to this weird thing my keyboard does: I will be typing along, and at some random keystroke (any key will do), my cursor will jump to a different, random position on the page. Of course, I may be hallucinating this, but I have observed it long enough, and it only seems to happen on a particular laptop. The one I use almost always, as fate would have it. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 19:11, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
Unwanted effects have been reported when the palm swipes the touchpad, and by inadvertent touching of the eraser-head. My usual web-surfing machine is a ten-year-old Toshiba with an eraser-head that doesn't just drift (from applying light, constant pressure) but wobbles until moved or smacked on the side. In my case and maybe yours, it is not "fate" but being a cheap bastard. Spıke Ѧ 19:15 21-May-13
- I will have to watch for that. I too have a similarly aged laptop, a Dell, also because I am a cheap bastard. Just to clear the air, I do not believe in fate. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 19:17, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
UnNews TV Highlights[edit]
I noticed that you have been doing a lot of UnNews stuff recently and gather from SPIKE that you run the UnNews Main Page. I just noticed that the TV Highlights were all for US TV. If you want I can write some British ones. Thanks. Sir ScottPat (talk) 19:21, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
- But both y'all's channels are government-owned, so what would the point of that be? (That was a joke.) Spıke Ѧ 19:22 21-May-13
- I don't know that I run anything, but I guess I am slowly buckling up the UnNews strapon I used to wear, so... maybe? As to TV Highlights, I'm pretty open to that idea. My main concern is layout, closely followed by giving it the SPIKE test. Of course, we also hope they're funny. Care to weigh in, Spike? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 19:39, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
- I told ScottPat that you ran UnNews (past) (I remember clarifying that I don't run it) but have recently added my hope that you could be conned into running it again (future). But the TV listings are not by Zim. Another guy stepped forward recently. I don't remember who; let's check the history. My only opinion is to ask you to cut him in on these conversations. It is totally appropriate that, in view of a willing volunteer, the humor anywhere on Uncyclopedia be written to appeal to readers here as well as there. Spıke Ѧ 19:52 21-May-13
- PS--Never mind. It was GlobalTourniquet who most recently managed this feature. He resigned last November. Spıke Ѧ 20:09 21-May-13
- I don't think it is possible to have TV Highlights that every country understands as we all have our own channels and programmes. I do not know much about US programmes/channels for example. However if each country had a section on TV Highlights then it would work. I'll offer to write the British one. Thanks. Sir ScottPat (talk) 20:13, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
- I just want to check with you guys that it is ok that I can write British TV highlights under the US ones in the TV highlights section of UnNews under a seperate subtitle on the basis of what I have said in this discussion. Any problems with that please tell me now. I will wait for a reply before I edit. Thanks. Sir ScottPat (talk) 20:24, May 21, 2013 (UTC)

- Space on the Front Page is at a premium, but this feature does not seem to have changed significantly this year. So, rather than cram in country-by-country listings, do what you should always do on Uncyclopedia: Write about what you know and love, but write cleverly and with enough hints that foreign readers can enjoy it. Spıke Ѧ 20:33 21-May-13
- I think you can assume that. Like other items on the Front Page, you might write the template not to be self-contained as before, but as a Front Page excerpt where the reader can click to see a "full" listing. Spıke Ѧ 20:39 21-May-13
- Ok. Will do. I might actually change it to recently released movies as it would probably be easier to make the whole English community to laugh with movies rather than TV as everyone watches the same movies in all countries generally. Sir ScottPat (talk) 20:44, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
- Scottpat: have you started on a list of your ideas for movies or Brit TV yet? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 13:06, May 23, 2013 (UTC)
- By the way Zim do you run UnNews now? I edited the TV highlights template to accommodate for British TV channels as well as mentioned in the discussion above. Sir ScottPat (talk) 13:07, May 23, 2013 (UTC)
- Again, I don't know that I run anything. There was a time when I kept the wheels turning and the lights on at UnNews, unsupervised and pretty much left to my own devices. If that is considered running things, then I seem to be gradually accumulating cabal powers.
- Ok. Will do. I might actually change it to recently released movies as it would probably be easier to make the whole English community to laugh with movies rather than TV as everyone watches the same movies in all countries generally. Sir ScottPat (talk) 20:44, May 21, 2013 (UTC)
- With regard to the TV thingy, I gave it a cursory look, and found it adequate for the moment, but wanting. It needs to look better, be clear as to what's playing where and that blurb at the bottom is meh. Let's discuss this a little more, and get a clearer idea as to what we want. I was thinking about a list of popup boxes, containing listings of individual channels and what's on for the week. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 13:39, May 23, 2013 (UTC)
- Zim, one thing you need to do to the "TV thingy": ScottPat has it structured as a random choice. You need to structure it as you used to do with your cartoons, based on the day of the month, so that instead of a random new selection made every time the page renders (except every so often when it doesn't), the same thing comes up all day, but it rolls over predictably at the start of the next day. ScottPat could, at his option, load up more content to be queued up on future days, as Uncyclopedia now does for featured articles. Spıke Ѧ 13:48 23-May-13
- I will add more to it of course. The random structure thing was something the previous TV highlights editors came up with so I just stuck to it. Do what Spike says as it sounds better. I will supply some content over the next few days and you can edit it how you want. However on some of the British TV highlights I've done it so that the joke only makes sense if all three are together (hope you know what I mean). As to the blurb at the bottom could you please tell me what is bad about it so I can improve or get rid of it thanks. Sir ScottPat (talk) 15:09, May 23, 2013 (UTC)
- That "blurb at the bottom" was my attempt, assuming that ScottPat went totally British, to throw a sop to American readers while cracking wise about annoying cable-channel packages. It does not need to be there always, as Scott has not gone totally British. It might still fit following groups that offer particular humor only to the British. The joke might be told in the other direction, if British cable systems likewise try to rope subscribers into buying unwanted channels.
- Zim's channel-specific idea struck me as widget-heavy. However, if sports fans were able to click on a sports channel, and so on, each reader might indeed retrieve humor of particular interest to him. Spıke Ѧ 15:20 23-May-13
- Love your idea about the sports channel thing. If you could make a template like that Spike and I'll supply the joke content (of course you too can aswell) that would be great. We Brits don't have dodgy cable (or is it cabal?) packages like the US have. Remember state owned TV (BBC license fee for owning a TV). Then previously state owned company called BT let you down with inadequate service. We Brits hate BT (not to mention BP) so the British blurb joke will probably only be understood by the Brits I'm afraid but then many Brits probably wouldn't get the cable thing. The Aussie blurb joke is just about how Australia is upside down. It appeals to us Brits as we always joke that in Australia everyone stands upside down so that gravity is upwards however this joke can be understood by all. I say we get rid of the blurb entirely. Thanks. Sir ScottPat (talk) 19:27, May 23, 2013 (UTC)

UnNews:Sergio Garcia apologizes[edit]
Try it now? Spıke Ѧ 12:05 23-May-13
- Much better, you sexy beast. Were you ever in the military? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 13:04, May 23, 2013 (UTC)
- I polished up the handle so carefully
- That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navy.
Sir ScottPat (talk) 15:10, May 23, 2013 (UTC)
Try it again. I added several more flourishes.
Also, as you seem to be back to not checking your email for four-month stretches: Go to UN:AA and replace your name with your signature file, if you feel like it. Three of us have; it gives newbies who go there looking for an Admin more direct access to our talk pages. Spıke Ѧ 23:09 27-May-13
- I checked my email, that one in particular a while ago. I simply forgot about the whole thing. Thanks for the gentle reminder and the bats that are eating my legs. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 23:41, May 27, 2013 (UTC)
You're welcome, Kind Sir, except for the bats. Those I did not dispatch. Spıke Ѧ 23:54 27-May-13
- Zombie Prophet Elijah, who I am currently channeling using a Ouija board, a tomato and three grams of Symbionese Liberation Army Purple Hindu Kush Rocket Breath premium marijuana, says you sent the bats. Lots of them. Which is fine, because I like it. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 09:47, May 28, 2013 (UTC)

Zimbo, are you back? Man, I feel like a Catholic who has been unable to give confession for two years because his priest is locked up for preaching heracy.--Funnybony 10:41, May 30

UnNews:Christian Right leader flaunts ape shit craziness[edit]
Not that I have ever understood your sense of humor, but this one is awful. The headline looks like advocacy (as well as ape shit both lacking a hyphen and not looking like a respected news source), the article reads like advocacy, and that's because the article is advocacy, taking bile from the HuffPost and slightly stylizing it with more extreme extrapolations of Mormonism and the addition of "ape shit." There are funnier takes on bureaucrats at the BSA wrestling about whether Jamborees would be funner with more buttsecks than the usual right-left shrieks--such as whether the BSA with gays will work better for little boys than the Catholic Church priesthood with gays worked for little boys. Regarding the right-left shrieks, I hear that someone on the left at Slate wrote that the neat thing about the gay-rights debate is that it actually clears the way for legalization of polygamy. Spıke Ѧ 13:39 31-May-13
- OK, I get that you think it's awful, and I agree, it is an awful article for a news publication. I don't understand how your "funnier takes" are different vis-à-vis "advocacy". For that matter, I don't really get what you mean by advocacy. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 14:54, May 31, 2013 (UTC)
It is awful for a news publication and for a pretend news publication (to the extent that it intends to pretend). It doesn't work to take extreme organizations and spoof them by exaggerating their extremism. So you have a historically right-wing group, the BSA, taking a left-wing position, an even more right-wing clergyman taking an extreme-right position (objecting to the BSA), and a left-wing blog taking a left-wing position (ridiculing the minister). I am just looking for something more playful and clever than right-versus-left. Yes, my own take, above, includes my own advocacy, and I'm not suggesting that mine replace yours in the UnNews; only that it look for absurdities and hypocrisy rather than just caricature the various opponents; also keep its own tongue securely in-cheek. Spıke Ѧ 16:19 31-May-13
- OK, it's bad. I invite you to fix it. In an act of extreme humility, I will refrain from loading this abomination in the sight of all the bald-headed saints onto UnNews front page as well as the Main Page. I will accept thanks for my admirable forbearance in the form of monetary remuneration or in cases of Schweppes Ginger Ale (since 1783) (twelve ounce cans, 16 ounce bottles or one liter bottles, please). In addition, I expect a weighty smart-assed reply from SPIKE. If its existence is an intolerable burden to you, SPIKE, please delete it with my blessing. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 04:40, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
It's worth a six-pack. Will you have the Bruins game on, tomorrow night? Spıke Ѧ 10:27 2-Jun-13
Branching from above topic[edit]
Seriously, SPIKE... you've never gotten any of my humor? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 14:56, May 31, 2013 (UTC)
- I've never understood the allure of Bat Fuck Insane over actual satire, no. Romney is ridiculous because what he just did is an absurd carrying to extremes of something he said six months ago, beats Romney is ridiculous because he's got Cthulhu on a treadmill inside his Land-Rover. But it is equally welcome on the page. The article we were discussing is neither. Spıke Ѧ 10:27 2-Jun-13
- C'mon! Utah's already got Da Bomb. Spıke Ѧ 11:36 2-Jun-13
- Don't get it. Sports reference? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 18:26, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
You guys have failed to not miss the point, with regard to bat fuckery. First of all, a treadmill is just one step away from going askew on the treadle. Romney does have a Landrover, but it's registered in the name of a shell corporation that launders money for religious fundamentalists. Iran has nothing to do with anything. The article we were discussing was neither. Now it is something else. By focusing on the treadmill, you've lost hope of being cantilevered. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 18:26, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
- Will you have the Bruins game on, tomorrow night? Spıke Ѧ 10:27 2-Jun-13
- I'm sure one of my kids will, possibly both. I decline to watch or participate in anything resembling a sport. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 18:26, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
- Hey Zim sorry. My comment was a joke against Mitt Romney. I have not seen your article and my comment was just a joke so don't take it seriously. Sorry, it was probably inappropriate there. Sir ScottPat (talk) 18:31, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
- PS - I just read your explanation of the joke above. That is very clever and very funny. Great work! Sir ScottPat (talk) 18:34, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
- I'm sure one of my kids will, possibly both. I decline to watch or participate in anything resembling a sport. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 18:26, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
ScottPat: Don't worry so much about offending me. It didn't even occur to me. That "explanation" you liked is what it looks like inside some parts of the inside of my head. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 19:01, June 2, 2013 (UTC)
"Details are confused in what remains of his mind"[edit]
That is Bat Fuck humor I can appreciate.
In summary, I take it there is no party at your house tonight? Spıke Ѧ 22:26 3-Jun-13
- I daresay I reject your proposal that that is bat fuck anything. I am insulted. No, disgraced. No,... fehoodled!
- In mammary, no party. I take it the Bruins won the cup? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 13:28, June 7, 2013 (UTC)
Well, I'd drive the 33 miles to meet you, even if I had to watch tonight's Game 4 with your sons while you busy yourself with whatever you do out back in the "mammary." Spıke Ѧ 13:53 7-Jun-13
- Hah! Well, one of the sons is collapsed from about a 7 hour week, and the other went with to a friends, presumably to hoot and holler for the Bruins. And I'm pretty sure it's less than 33 miles. And we're cigarette smokers, so I don't know if you'd want to put up with thcannibis sativaat. It's become very unfashionable, but what can I say? I enjoy smoking despite my awareness of the cognitive dissonance. As far as the "mammary" is concerned, the less said the better. Cheers! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 02:03, June 8, 2013 (UTC)
How do I break it to you that some of us put in 7 hours in a single day? Nothing about that flurry of excuse-making overcomes the fact that you disclose plans for tonight's rendezvous only when the game is already in the Third Period. So I'm not coming over tonight. Bruins up 1-0 with 10 minutes left in regulation. Spıke Ѧ 02:23 8-Jun-13
- I see, I think. At least I have coffee, cigarettes and some pretty nice weed which I suspect is the seemingly rare strain, cannibis sativa. Thus, life is adequate. How many games have been played in the series so far? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 02:30, June 8, 2013 (UTC)
Fourth-place Boston has just beaten first-seeded Pittsburgh in the best-of-seven series in a manner not requiring the actual playing of Games 5, 6, or 7. Boston wins the East and will play against Chicago or Los Angeles for the Stanley Cup. Hockey, oddly, is played indoors; all the area baseball games are rained out tonight. Spıke Ѧ 02:39 8-Jun-13
- The idea is that sativa is more a "head high", whereas indica is more of a "body high". My take is that the first is a pleasant high, good for nausea and possibly a stimulant to creativity, and the second is great for nausea, but can make you stupid. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 02:39, June 8, 2013 (UTC)
- Some fucking rain, eh? Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 02:40, June 8, 2013 (UTC)
Me, I am high on editing. I had plans to be in Nashua tonight. A rainy day is pretty useless, but I think of it as weather I don't have to shovel. Spıke Ѧ 02:44 8-Jun-13
- Editing? Man, you're just weird. That's probably the top reason I like you so much. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 03:04, June 8, 2013 (UTC)
The only way to avoid being thought of as weird is to postpone every decision until you consider what everyone else will think. (And even that is no guarantee!) Good night! Spıke Ѧ 03:13 8-Jun-13 Excellent advice! good night. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 03:16, June 8, 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I work with Illogicopedia...[edit]
Through the following Talk:Fantasy_adventure it was suggested that I introduce myself to you. We are both obviously mindless ranters. I had moved this Fantasy_adventure over to Illogicopedia on the premise it doesn't belong here, when I saw this recomendation to drop on in. Maybe you could Shepard it or beat it with a hammer or smothered it with a wet towel or whatever you do to articles on Illogicopedia? I personally beat them with AAAAAA! and inject them with alarm clock parts. --Uncycloperson (talk) 03:19, June 11, 2013 (UTC)

A question regarding userboxes[edit]
Is it possible to use userbxes from Wikipedia directly, without having to copy the code, and put it in a template page here to use? (I'm lazy like that) --The Shield of Azunai DSA510My Edits! 02:15, June 12, 2013 (UTC)
- I don't know, but being lazy, I always copy and paste code, them modify as needed. I haven't coded by hand since 1996. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 02:20, June 12, 2013 (UTC)
UnSignpost Article.[edit]
Thank you for your contribution. Maybe I shall make the UnSignpost on Saturday. Thanks. Sir ScottPat (talk) 18:45, June 13, 2013 (UTC)

From Bierce's The Devil's Dictionary[edit]
“ | An English sea-captain being asked if he had read "The Exile of Erin," replied: "No, sir, but I should like to anchor on it." Years afterwards, when he had been hanged as a pirate after a career of unparalleled atrocities, the following memorandum was found in the ship's log that he had kept at the time of his reply:

UnPoetia:The Twelve Days of Blitzkrieg[edit]
You practically re-wrote my whole poem here. At least the idea stays. In my original it is meant to reflect the events that happened in WW2 as they happen rather your version is full of random Nazi jokes however I don't understand what: "Twelve Quislings quizzing, Eleven Mengeles mengeling" means. However thanks for the changes. Was there anything wrong with my original version, was it just not funny? Sir ScottPat (talk) 20:43, June 20, 2013 (UTC)
- It's not that it was bad, I just felt it needed some tweaks to make it more aesthetically pleasing (to me, at least).
- Mengeles, J. was a famous Nazi (I think, but am not entirely sure, he was one of the concentration camp doctors, conducting noble experiments for the good of science). As for Quisling, I am stumped. Sir Reverend P. Pennyfeather (fancy a chat?) CUN VFH PLS 22:17, June 20, 2013 (UTC)
- Quisling led Norway as a Nazi puppet state. His name has become synonymous with traitor and collaborator. There's also a line of high end open toed python boots with the name. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 01:56, June 21, 2013 (UTC)
- Ah yes I do remember hearing about Quisling in a book I read about what would have happened if Britain was invaded. Quisling was the Oswald Mosley of Finland however the author of this book reckoned that Mr. Mosley despite his fascist views would not have become the puppet leader of the UK for Germany as he was too patriotic towards Britain. Thanks to both of you for your work on the article. Sir ScottPat (talk) 07:41, June 21, 2013 (UTC)

Biopic contribution[edit]
Hello! If you have not done it yet, what would you say about writing a paragraph or two about yourself for UnSignpost. If you want to tell other Uncyclopedians who you are and some interesting stuff (you can certainly make it up), then, please, go on and do it here. Thanks (even if you decided not to do it).

Got your message[edit]
Are you back, then? Will there be a cook-out this summer? There is no risk of being invited to a baseball game; I just sat through 18 innings at Nashua and would be hard-put to explain why it was fun. (But it was.) Spıke Ѧ 02:49 9-Jun-14
- Alas, no cookouts. Our once tenants are now homeowners somewhere near Wal*Mart in Hudson. You missed nothing, as far as that goes. There were no cookouts worth going to. We now have a fellow living with us who works with my other son. Good quality marijuana has become more available, allowing me to cut out some medications. 18 innings... insufferable, certainly, for a gimpy, tinny-voiced bastard like me. I was considering recommending you to an uncle who adores dry humor, but then remembered, he's stupid, so... still, at 82 years old he fell off his barn and recovered in months... back to doing his chores. Respect, yo. I say "yo" to my son because it amuses him. I will text something like, "Yo, son, howzit be?", in my self-aggrandizing pidgin, and he will threaten to kill my dog. Sorry you had to see this, and sorry for UnNews:Bats are eating my legs! Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 03:01, June 9, 2014 (UTC)
Yes, I regret it. But you knew that. Not that they needed a "tinny voice" on Public Address. One way it was fun is that someone in 205 brought a Nashua Telegraph with illustrations of gadfly signage for a pedestrian walkway that are dumb enough to deserve a caricature at Nashua, New Hampshire. Spıke Ѧ 03:08 9-Jun-14
Baseball would be improved with explosives. That way, at least you could regret it and be deaf. I wouldn't say I'm back. I might say, "sometimes, I got this urge to go poopies, but it won't come out. I write something for Uncyc, and then it's all better", but that shouldn't surprise you.
There is a game called "Goat Simulator". The object of the game is to simulate a goat. This too shouldn't surprise you. It does validate my weldanschaung, however. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 03:26, June 9, 2014 (UTC)

Sporks from Illogicopedia[edit]
Zim, this is not Illogicopedia, copies from Illogicopedia should not be highlighted as {{Recent}} Uncyclopedia work, and the article in question is eminently VFD-worthy on this site (stubby, tons of strikethrough, no evident comedy theme). Please do not fix the infrastructure to facilitate copying stuff here from Illogicopedia. Spıke Ѧ 03:00 23-Jun-14
- No need to address me as though I'm a child, you stodgy prick. There was a time I came here for a bit of fun, and to share with some friendly folks. I shall respect your wishes, but your manner forces me to lose respect for you. Rev. Zim (Talk) Get saved! 03:57, June 23, 2014 (UTC)
As a child? certainly not. And I am sorry you withdrew your vote for Benzene out of spite, rather than, say, the last ten sentences of it. I remain available to meet you on your terms, unless baseball is being played at the time, at any safe location in your city, speaking hypothetically now. Spıke Ѧ 04:27 23-Jun-14
No, sorry, that is exactly what you did, though somehow you also deleted someone else's vote, which Anton199 has now fixed. I will buy the first round (of Benzene). Spıke Ѧ 12:10 23-Jun-14

UnNews:Deflategate rocks New England Patriots world[edit]
Welcome back! I have added some style issues. Not sure whether to go with this one or wait until the judge's verdict is in — now hinted as imminent "by the end of the week." Spıke 🎙️16:03 2-Sep-15
- Thank you! I did this one today, read it, and thought, "maybe this would be OK for UnCyc". My older kid must be tied up in knots over this, with huge love for the Patriots. I think he'd blow Brady for a favorable verdict. Perhaps the judge too. Cheers! Zim ulator (talk) 02:26, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
By recent accounts, Giselle might no longer be servicing him. Spıke 🎙️02:34 3-Sep-15

PS--I am occasionally still in your city, as I am a Nor'Easter fan (who uniquely have not needed my help holding the first-down chains). They are in the Aaron Hernandez Football League. Next visit is 12-Sep. Spıke 🎙️02:49 3-Sep-15
Verdict in. I'll give you overnight to revise and extend your remarks, then tomorrow morning will decide if we've got a Front Page side-by-side with my UnNews:Judge throws out Brady suspension. Spıke 🎙️20:36 3-Sep-15
Checking status[edit]
Hi Zim. I am just wondering how you are? Spike has gone off-site since July 2017 which means your creation 'UnNews' has been without anyone looking after it on a full time basis. Let me know if you are still interested in coming back at some stage or you feel you prefer to retire and smoke some good (legal) weed instead.:) --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 07:24, June 3, 2018 (UTC)
