I can't tell whether or not this is supposed to be offensive...

What's this about exactly?

Uh, nobody has 7 AEs (besides Unia, and I'm pretty sure she left), and nobody acts like that when they create new ones. This is really offensive. Who was this?

Same, Gracia. Who posted this??

Hey, Admins, can you delete this thread? It's not honestly being met with a positive reaction, and I realized how negative I actually made the post.

I understand that there was impersonations in the past, but the impersonator did apologize. This is really me, asking if you can take it down. 

Because we're being extra careful right now, I'm going to post this and leave it up for an hour. After that I will delete it, as per your request. --Admin

I don't find this offensive, just humorous. Studio C does stuff like this all the time; it's exaggeration. It's okay to laugh at ourselves every once and a while, as long as it's in good humor.

Also, it highlights where we could be more creative, which on the CB I believe is a good thing.

Guys? This really isn't offensive. 

I think everyone is really overreacting about this. It's just funny. It's just exaggerated facts about the chatterbox. None of these are personally attacking anyone, they're just pointing out this that everyone does too much. Sure, ok, no one has seven AEs, but CC is humorously pointing out that the majority of people have as many as possible. Which is fine that he's pointing it out, and fine if you have a lot of AEs.

If you don't find it funny that's fine, but humor is only offensive when it's cruel and at someone else's expense. CC has probably done some if these xryself. It's a joke!

Also, what's cliche #7?

I'm guessing it's about when people post a thread without saying anything, like with the serene goat or "a feather from a jay", but I'm not positive :)

I agree with Alizarine and Mice. I see how some of these could be taken the wrong way, but I simply find them funny. I don’t think CC meant this to be offensive.

Ya, this is more fairly funny, less offensive. I just adore self deprecation. (That sounded facetious. I really do.)

By Blue Moon, do you mean Blue Moon Ice Cream? Blue Moon is a CBer. Blue Moon Ice Cream is the story the Admins have told us...

Haha omk. So true, so true. Took me a few tries to understand what it was about but I get it now, lol. * I haven’t slept in a week it’s fine we’re fine I’m not hearing voices.... Yesh magical cat I’ll go make us some cookies instead of finishing this hw or working on leagues.....*

YESH THE BLUE MOON ICE CREAM STORY lol Admins plz share with our new CBers. ;P 

Oh my, this again! Here we go. I think someone on Chatterbox mentioned blue moon ice cream. I had seen it in an ice cream shop in Wisconsin when I was on vacation with my family, but I'd never tasted it. It's very blue. (My mother had always told us that blue was the color of poison and would never make blue frosting for a birthday cake.) I looked it up online and learned that it was fruity flavored. Both Wisconsin and Michigan claim to be the state of origin, and at the time were the only places to find it. Anyway, I was very excitied to find it in our local supermarket in Illinois one day in October 2014. So I bought a half gallon.

That weekend we had a block party with potluck food in a neighbor's yard. It was mid-October, so it got dark early. When it was time for dessert I dashed home to get the blue moon ice cream for the Halloween desserts table. After I set it down, I began to hurry across the backyard, intending to tell some friends that I'd just put it out and they should go get some quick before it was all gone. But, as I said, it was dark, and in my haste I had my eyes on my friends and not on the ground. I tripped on a beanbag game, fell, gashed my leg, and broke my wrist. My right wrist, and I'm right-handed. So blue moon ice cream was the cause of my broken wrist, and I've never bought it since.

There's a funny followup I haven't mentioned on CB before now. My wrist hurt, but I didn't know it was broken or go to the doctor or ER. Two days later, two nurse friends insisted I go and one of them drove me to a prompt care facility. I was called into an examining room and told to have a seat. I had nothing to read with me, so I just sat there all alone with the door closed, waiting for the doctor. I could hear a bit of commotion in the hallway. After a little while the lights went out, and I thought there'd been a power outage. So I sat there in the dark for quite a while. Then I shifted in the chair a bit, and the lights came on. When I sat still again, they went out, and it dawned on me that the lights were motion activated. So then I entertained myself by seeing how small a motion would turn them on. Just wiggling a big toe? . . . Finally the doctor came in. There was no power outage, but there had been an emergency that required immediate attention; thus my long wait. I had and Xray and was given the diagnosis of the break. All healed now.
