The awesome thing about this site is that you can simply ask your technical question at any time. No one here will be like "Tits or GTFO!" I mean, "Search n00b!" This forum is the gold standard, in my opinion. Corner Carvers? I really hate that site.

Don't worry. I'm learning disabled and an in no way insulted. I do make up my own words sometimes, though.

It isn't mentioned ^ there, but the gist was that there was a thread on a previous version of the board where someone got butt-hurt over the use of a certain word used to describe people that "ride the short bus" to school. Since my younger brother was one of those kids, I and others told the guy that he was being a Bob Costas and to understand the use of the work in the context it was used was not meant to disparage people with that condition.

That persons post was then taken and converted to an internal GRM meme because it was just so perfect for our twisted uses. The key is that unlike some memes on the rest of the net, this one is used sparingly and with thoughtful consideration.

If anyone can find the original post, their google-fu is very strong as I've not found it so far.
