I don’t know if this is still the case, but Bittersweet Candy Bowl used to have some creative swear filter settings in the forums, which included replacing all references to the character McCain (though I forget what with) and turning “Mordor” into “A GIANT VAGINA THE SIZE OF A HALLWAY.” On slow days people would sometimes amuse themselves by posting “One does not simply walk into Mordor.”
I was going to say something sarcastic about SEMME’s effectiveness, but come to think of it, Willis already talked about how the needs of the plot sometimes made SEMME come off as really incompetent. I believe this is one of those times.
I don’t know why they’re taking the Aliens seriously. The Aliens get trashed in basically every encounter they ever have, the best head Alien manages is to get ahead for what, twenty minutes? Before he gets completely defeated AGAIN.
Fear the alien.
Hate the alien.
I think you mean “>GRUNT<"
Know how Willis managed to script it so that mentions of a certain character’s name got ****’ed in DoA after the joke got old?
He should totally make it so anyone with a Beef avatar can only say GRUNT.
That’d be cool, but it’d have to un-**** the posts if the Gravatar changes. Brutal.
>GRUNT<
(I find this hilarious)
What joke?

Time to be a legitimate threat.
Jason’s kind of a dick.
At least he isn’t holding any of his teammates at gunpoint for no reason today.
Knowing his teammates, he has all the reason in the world to hold them at gunpoint.
It is time. Friends is on. Hit record on the VCR.
Was Friends what we were all watching in 2000? I forget.
It’s apparently fifty tapes with assorted labels but all of them are Beast Wars.
Mine are labled “Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue.”
I was 7-8 in 2000, so probably Pokemon.
HA, I question your logic when one of the steps of your plan is “get captured by the enemy and hope they don’t execute me”.

Of course, he later fixed this by making SEMME’s incompetence a plot point, which was nice.
Yup, Jason is full of himself.
Joyce is interesting to begin with here. Real, mind wipe or no.
Sal is true to form.
the drama tag is out… the universe help us all…

I was thinking, Joyce has really innocuous nightmares.
Those victories aren’t exactly without cost…
WELL NOW THEY LOOK INCREDIBLY THREATENING.
Jesus, I didn’t even know that was possible, with their designs.
… Nope, still difficult to perceive as a thread.
Threat. The word I was looking for was THREAT
Umm…Is that alien…dissolved?
