Alright,
I understand this Shemp bullshit was started as a light-hearted way to joke around with the forum amidst a cloud of pot smoke and MGD 64's or something, but each year it has proven to be a failure. Each year someone's feelings were hurt and/or people got pissed off and/or the forum was disrupted.
I don't see how this tradition can continue, especially with the negative feedback and animosity it brings.
It's my perception that this group of people doesn't really give a fuck about the members of this forum. In changing the words "feet" and "tickle" to Shemp, you should have expected there would be a bit of a negative reaction to that. What's worse, is that you probably did expect it, but didn't care. In fact, you most likely relished in it. What does that make you? Trolls.
What about those people who don't get to use the internet often? Who don't have an outlet for their fetish and by some off chance got to finally get back to the forum? I'm sure more than a few people experienced that today and it was not only ruined by the fuckery going on here, but they may have been made to feel ashamed by the "Too Many Feet" joke.
"It's just a joke. If you don't get it, you need to get out of your house and socialize with people."
No, actually, maybe you need to stop disrupting the forum and pissing people off while you pass joints around and laugh as people get upset. Maybe you need to stop making jokes at the forum's expense. That is what is furthering this idea of there being a "clique." Plotting what is going to happen to the forum each year on 4th of July weekend while the rest of the members here have to just deal with it or be deemed a humorless shut-in.
I think more than enough people have been offended now, some personally.
