I've always found the all too common "Op is a (Insert derogatory word, usually cigarette)". It means that one less person will be participating in a thread I make. Rather demoralizing, lol.
“Sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives I'm not living.”
Dakka's swear filter turns 'F@g' into 'cigarette, FYI.
good on them. (The dakka team, not the cigarette) I always thought that that word was stupid.

However, I like to think of OT as like the public toilets. It may stink, it may be disgusting and it may be littered with human waste, but unless you go in there and get your junk out you're not a real man! -Trollpie, DakkaDakka.com, 24th April 2011
Edit: Whoops, misread the quote.

What happened to discouraging quotes? It has just become a pointless conversation, just like trying to get a raise. bad-dum-ch (that comedy drum noise)

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

life is like a box of chocolate, if you have to much you could get sick.
when life gives you lemmons you risk the chance of being robbed of those lemmons to make your lemmonad

LoneLictor on thread about an ork choking the Emperor:
LoneLictor wrote: I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.
Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try, and try again until you realise that each attempt will ultimately end in failure.
If you can't beat them... what's the point in having kids?

Here we go with another US/Brit thing
F+ag is has been slang for a ciggy, smoke or tab for a long while and had no connotations towards sexual preference.
I dislike the concept of f+agging which is a posh school thing. Am sure you could find references to it in Victorian novels eg Tom Brown's schooldays.
back on topic:
Good grief Charlie Brown yet another waste of Dakka server space
And that is why you hear people yelling FOR THE EMPEROR rather than FOR LOGICAL AND QUANTIFIABLE BASED DECISIONS FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE MAJORITY!

The tallest blade of grass is the first to be hit by the lawnmower.
There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.
When life gives you lemons... cut them into tiny squares and squirt the juice right into someone's eye. If you must suffer, make others suffer as well.
When you are struck by a train, it's not the caboose that kills you.
Radios will fail as soon as you need fire support... desperately.
It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.
