Okay, I'm confused. Is this the real Bishonen? – Chacor 07:03, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
- Proud separate account, grrr! But please see my userpage, check History for great justice, no confusion intended. And I have just moved the post you so rudely deleted, so no worries. (Bishzilla is a learner, and the man doesn't have a talkpage link in his sig!) Bishzilla 07:09, 13 November 2006 (UTC).
- Heh, my immediate reaction was "impostor account", sorry. I think I get the gist of it (due to the added confusion of this account's block log, and the move log history of the page). – Chacor 07:11, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
- Taxman nuked the original abusive account so Her Serene Highness Bishonen could take it over. (Fawningly: don't hurt me, Bishonen!) Check the block log again, please, now much prouder. Bishzilla 07:32, 13 November 2006 (UTC).

I officially apologize for my incompetence. Didn't intend for you to stay blocked. Hope that's OK... er, there's a good zilla... aiieeee! *runs away* – Gurch 22:27, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Noises become displeasingly shrill. /me stuffs the little doc in her pocket for sound insulation. Very faint welcoming squeaks are heard from the little ArbCom. Bishzilla 01:09, 2 December 2006 (UTC).
- ???ArbCom??? I can't tell if that's humor or not; have I gone astray? Doc Tropics 03:00, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- If certain user is to be believed, the reason he was sanctioned by the ArbCom was that Her Serene Highness Bishonen keeps them in her pocket. I used to have a link to a Mailing List post... well, never mind, obviously the man must have been talking about Bishzilla! Big pockets! What is "humor"...? Excuse Zilla ignorance! Newbie! Bishzilla 04:23, 2 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] An admirer?
Did you know you have an admirer? - User:Larzilla - I've vetted him though and judged him unsuitable. The thought of his progeny unleashed in the world is too unbearable to countenance. Besides, he doesn't have a rotating head, it would never work. --Mcginnly | Natter 15:24, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I hope you won't eat me up for asking an impertinent question, but I'd like to know, because if you're not, I have a perfect husband for you. Unfortunately, I can't put a fair use picture on your page, but if you click here, you'll find the monster of your dreams. He eats clocks and parking meters, by the way.

[edit] A parking meter from Ann
Bishzilla, I apologize for criticizing you at MONGO's talk page. I was going to offer you an apple turnover as well, to make up, but I'm not sure that you eat apple turnovers. So I'm giving you a parking meter instead. Of course, I don't know if you like them, either, but I do know that Muzzy does, so it might be suitable for a nice romantic dinner.
This particular kind of parking meter is hard to find nowadays, so it's considered to be quite a delicacy. I hope you both like it. Musical Linguist 16:04, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- /Bishzilla know how to accept apology in considerate, obliging, well-mannered, polite, kind, courteous, magnanimous, chivalrous, tactful, nice, genteel way! (Bishzilla use online thesaurus, highly recommended. Linguist, too, can acquire voluble, talkative, loquacious, communicative, chatty personality.) Zilla graciously eat parking meter, then steal Danish pastry on Bishonen's page and offer linguist a clock. Blush girlishly at thought of romantic dinner with Muzzy.

[edit] Credentials
Since there has been some recent controversy surrounding the false assertion of credentials, I was wondering if you might provide some proof that you are in fact a large green fire-breathing monster as you claim. I have had some recent private correspondence that suggests that you are in fact a "cute little basset hound". Paul August ☎ 23:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
- Please note that editors can be blocked for stalking if they post details that would enable others to track down a user's identity in real life.

[edit] Bug report
Over the past few days, there have been several instances in which pages have randomly appeared as much older versions of that page for up to ten minutes or so, making them impossible to edit in their current form. It seems to be some sort of server problem with the cache interface. Anyway, someone told me I should file a Bugzilla report on the matter, but I don't know Bugzilla, so I hope it's okay if I report it here instead. Newyorkbrad 12:14, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pets, not snacks
Hello, Zilla. I just want to explain why I originally didn't want to give any cute little grass mice to Bishonen. I had read here and here about people buying rodents to feed them to their pet reptiles, so I feared for the safety of the cute little stripey mice. However, having read this, I now see that in fact Bishonen is the one I should worry about, and not you. So here are two cute little Barbary Striped Grass Mice for you — a slightly different species from the Typical Striped Grass Mouse. But please do keep them safe from that horrible user Bishonen! ElinorD (talk) 19:39, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
- Little Elinor got Bishonen's number plenty right. She sca-ree with her goulashes and mid-European meat stews! She put several small editors in there when nobody looking!

Hey 'Zilla. What's a guy gotta do to get adopted by the monster? Would providing you with a Jumbo Jet for a light brunch get the job done? SGT 02:01, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Hmmm. 'Zilla check out adoption program, sad to report fall short of adopter criteria. Most unjust and stressful, but is fact. 'Zilla get blocked within last 6 months...yep. (Misunderstanding!) 'Zilla perform vandalism... yep, also misunderstanding... 'Zilla believe practice in vandalizing pre-requisite for adminship. Understandable mistake. Little user can still learn monster skills!

[edit] Puny Fact
--Yomanganitalk 11:33, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you and please
Hello, my dear 'Zilla. First of all, I want to thank you for supporting my RfA. It was a privilege to be supported by someone like you. I gave some biscuits to some other people who supported me, and have given ice cream to people in the past, but as you told me you never eat anything smaller than Chihuahuas, I'm a little bit stuck as to what to offer you. I finally decided to offer you the whole ice cream machine — something I've never given to anyone else. Most people would find it a bit painful to swallow that amount of COLD mixture, but I believe you have means of gently heating something before you actually swallow it.
Also, since I've sometimes seen you boasting err speaking modestly about your coding skills, I wonder would you be able to offer any help or advice with an article I've just created. It's called Eighty-five martyrs of England and Wales, and I have all the martyrs' names listed in a single, very long column. (I plan to make every single red link turn blue in the next few weeks.) I'm not sure how to put the names into two or three columns, and I wondered if you could help? Many thanks, and thanks again for your support (and also for the cute, stripey pet you left at my talk page). ElinorD (talk) 22:11, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
- Hum...arrgh, 'zilla remarkable for modesty, considering how clever! [Drumroll on chest.] Bishonen double row footnotes somewhere. Rghh... arrgh, is ice article! Little Elinor try like this: <div style="-moz-column-count:2; column-count:2;">Here go text</div>
- Swallow mixture? What mixture? User speak riddle. But 'zilla appreciate pink and white machine, just right for supper! [/me eats ice cream maker.] bishzilla ROARR!! 23:01, 23 June 2007 (UTC).

WHY DID YOU DELETE THE JAPANCAST.NET WIKI PAGE!? IT IS NOT ADVERTISING - IF SO, PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO PHRASE IT SO THAT IT IS NOT ADVERTISING!? TAT TOOK ME HOURS!
- No need to shout. I understand it took a long time. Wiki articles must be neutrally written. This article reads like advertisement. Phrases like "learn Japanese easily and swiftly", "another thing that increased the popularity of Japancast", "a brilliant resource for reading Japanese" read like promotional website, not like an encyclopedia. Also section on "The owners" is unencyclopedic, needs removing: personal circumstances of owners, or jokes about eating with chopsticks, is not notable information about Japancast. If you wish, try to rewrite the article neutrally, and post it again, saying "Rewritten on advice of deleting admin" in the edit summary. Edit summary important, or it will be re-deleted as "recreated content" by some other admin. Feel free to ask more questions. bishzilla ROARR!! 20:49, 5 April 2008 (UTC).
[edit] Regarding the deletion of article: "Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?"
Bishzilla,
I don't find the deletion for the article "Is It A Good To Microwave This?" (that you deleted on 5th April 2008), acceptable under the grounds of it's "notability".
The article is of potential interest of the 100,000+ viewers of the program. Surely, that's more than a great number of current articles on Wikipedia at the moment, which wouldn't get a look without the random article link.
May you please reconsider the re-opening of this article.
Thank you for your time,
CCowell125
- Disagree, per my explanation on Talk:Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?. See also the essay "Other stuff exists". To get community input and ask for undeletion, your next step is to list the article on Wikipedia:Deletion review. bishzilla ROARR!! 22:34, 5 April 2008 (UTC).
[edit] Response to "Regarding the deletion of article: "Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?""
And I disargee again, per to what I said above, your response was more insulting, than helpful. You merely expressed you're opinion is somehow of more worth than mine, gave me a link, and wished me to leave, with the subject.
I'm not going though all that fuss to try and recover the article I wrote, which, I am sure, would be of more interest to a greater amount of people then a number of other articles. It wasn't asif the article was bad either.
Again, I thank you for your time, and look forward to your reply,

[edit] regarding Speedy Deletion of Ustad Abid Hussain Khan & Jamaluddin Khan pages
I am sorry that despite "hangon" and additional material and references, the pages were deleted. I humbly submit that Indian arts are based on the principle of impersonality and true artistes practice this even today. It was only interaction with west that made fine arts noticeable and worthy of documentation. Indian music is still a mystery, even to its practitioners, only a few of whom attain the moment of enlightenment. Unless one understands development of Indian music within the Gharana system, the term "descendent of Tansen" would hold no meaning, at least not as a reason for 'notability' or lack of it. I shall be grateful, if in consultation with an editor knowledgeable about Indian Classical Music the deleted pages are reviewed and restored. Both pages refer to a reliable secondary source, Prof. R.C. Mehta's book,Eminent Musicians of Yester Years. Both the artistes, father and son represent crucial points in evolution of North Indian Classical Music.
Please encourage people to add knowledge to public domain; it has been a fundamental belief of ancient Indian teaching system that "knowledge should be given to the deserving alone" and gave birth to caste-system based on intellectual discrimination. Pupils spent life-time devoting themselves to the whims and fancies of their Guru in order to gain Guru-mantra (grains of wisdom). The merit of such beliefs are no longer recognized. In a democratic world let not its champion Wikipedia prove that indeed, knowledge must be given only to the deserving. Best wishes, Ghanonmatta (talk) 16:27, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- I am wondering if it would be appropriate to these two articles (Ustad Abid Hussain and Jamaluddin Khan) to userspace so they can be reviewed and, if possible, improved on by the author. It is possible that they are, in fact, deserving of an entry but I can't review them as I am not an admin. I'll leave it to your discretion. Thanks. —BradV 17:18, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
-
- OK. I have placed the articles in Ghanonmatta's userspace, here, so that Ghanonmatta can work on them and BradV can review them and hopefully give advice. Please note that this is a temporary placement, as it is against wikipedia principles to leave deleted mainspace articles in the userspace for very long. The userpage I have created will soon be deleted, unless you actually work on the articles with a view to restoring them to article space. bishzilla ROARR!! 18:42, 6 April 2008 (UTC).

[edit] Timescale for userfied deleted pages
Hi, I noticed this which I myself have done for folks requesting to improve an otherwise vaporised article. And noted your comment somewhere about a requirement for being worked upon. I hadn't seen any discussion and wasn't sure where to start wading through mountains of WP archives looking - hence a question on a mental timescale/deadline thingy and and whether a policy on this sort of thing had been discussed somewhere (?) Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 02:33, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- Regret delay. Zilla not seen discussion or considered deadline, either. Going by common sense + principles of User:Calton, who delete such userpages if come upon them just sitting there (happens a lot). Giving user two-three weeks to at least touch pages seem ample, no? bishzilla ROARR!! 15:02, 13 April 2008 (UTC).
- I find blanking works best. Still there in userspace for being worked on later. Only the title shows up on searches. For example: User:Carcharoth/Gracia Fay Ellwood, User:Carcharoth/Middle-earth in popular culture. If a page is incubating, and it is in reasonable shape, I don't mind letting it show up on search engines (and despite the claims, they still do). For example here (high up on first page of search results) and here (fifth on the search page results). Carcharoth (talk) 16:53, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
-
-
- Hmmm. Interesting. Maybe a big banner/template thingy could be used stating, "This is not a page in Wikipedia mainspace, but an article which for one or more reasons (i.e. was deleted, currently unsourced WRT notability etc) not able to be placed there currently." This would allow me, if I stumbled over this page to more directly help out and be able to improve it, for instance. I know of one page which took 10 months to find sources, and there wasn't really much to do until something popped up (which it serendipitously did). The main ones I have problems with improving are where references lie elsewewhere (eg in big library). I have never interacted with Calton before. So I take it there's been no real place apart from a rudimentary para on userfying stuff.Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 20:01, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] How about a reply for "Response to "Regarding the deletion of article: "Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?""
It'll be great if you don't ignore my comments and opinions on Wikipedia and your actions as an adminisator - it's just rude. Before replying to other users ahead of my response, reply to it. CCowell125 (talk) 17:16, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- One assumes that she already has, by referring you to the appropriate policies that explain why your article got deleted. Additionally, though, she also told you what to do with your discontentedness: you can go to WP:DRV. That's the "deletion review" section. It is better if people uninvolved in the deletion review the matter and make a decision, and DRV is where you can get that done. Isn't that better than badgering someone, telling them who they should talk to, in what order, etc., and demanding or expecting her to change her mind? I know, if I were in your position, I'd want other people to be looking over the deletion, and I wouldn't be trying to force someone to change her mind.
- So here's the short version: leave the nice administrator alone, click on WP:DRV, and go see what those people think. Utgard Loki (talk) 18:28, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The RfArb
Bishonen, I enjoy your Bishzilla-speak as much as the next person, but do you really think that is appropriate for a request for arbitration? I suspect the request would be taken more seriously if you wrote it in grammatical English. Personally, I think it is extremely unlikely that any temporary desysop will happen. As Tango has said, any desysop would happen after a case. There is no emergency here. Carcharoth (talk) 10:05, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, think Zilla request highly appropriate. Arbitration page not sacred altar, in contrast to Zilla talkpage. Does little user really think verb-laden (="grammatical") wikipedia pidgin appropriate to use here? Suspect little Carcharoth more likely to survive visit to Zilla page if write in Dino Ursprache. Is proper deportment in presence of great Zilla. Little user make strange remark about temporary de-sysop. Arbcom many times at end of cases impose temporary (=time-limited) de-sysops. 'Zilla recollect ten days for InShaneee. Slap on wrist. Where objection? Furthermore please avoid addressing little 'shonen on Zilla page, most confusing. Kindly use dedicated page User talk:Bishonen for such. All clear now? [Zilla pick up little Carcaroth and peer at him intently. User shrivel abjectly.] [Tolerantly. ] Good. bishzilla ROARR!! 11:29, 13 April 2008 (UTC).
- LOL! Good to see you haven't lost your touch. I'll use your talk page next time. Thanks. Carcharoth (talk) 11:37, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
I share the same concern raised by Carcharoth above (viz. the dino-baby-talk in the RfArb), but I consider it completely inappropriate. A request for desysopping is a serious matter, as is an ArbCom proceeding. The dinosaur thing is funny, and clever, in its proper context; but in the context of an ArbCom case it is tasteless, and gives the impression (whether justified or not) that you don't take the whole thing seriously - and therefore, that you don't take Tango's reputation and integrity seriously. Arbitration is not a game; it has consequences which affect real people and their feelings, and I can assure you that I would be hurt and annoyed if you ever requested my desysopping using "Bishzilla-speak". Maybe I'm being needlessly pompous, but it's the way I honestly feel. I've made a statement to that effect in the RfArb. WaltonOne 15:54, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

- Acknowledge number person dislike use of incorrect gramma at ArbCom. Also know from experience that little ArbComs often get very very messy and ugly, even uglier than Tharks as seen here, and injecting a little humor is preferable to injecting some more vitriol. As long as Bishzilla gets points across coherently, her language not much worse than lots of furn editors me have met. Also, might freak out little Arbs if 'Zilla started talking like Henry Higgins and revealed she got doctorate from Oxford in English a few years ago, when she very politely asked for one. In this case, talking like herself shows little Arbs that situation isn't too dire. If any Arbs complain, though, me sure 'Zilla can do as good an Eliza Doolittle as Audrey Hepburn did. John Carter (talk) 16:20, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- It's not to do with incorrect grammar, or getting points across coherently. The problem is that deliberate use of dino-talk gives the impression that she isn't taking the issue seriously. When calling for someone's desysopping - especially when the background to the case is a topic as serious (and upsetting to many people) as 9/11 - it is highly inappropriate to play games and piss around. Much as Wikipedia may often feel like one of those online role-playing games, it is ultimately a serious website with a serious purpose, and desysopping someone is a serious issue.

- Unfortunately, you seem to be indicating that not only are all admins responsible for all they say and do, which is reasonable, if a bit extreme, but that we also have to be responsible for what others might perceive us as being. If we do cross that line, then basically any individual will be free to say "I'm offended by ..." regarding reasonable comments perhaps phrased less than perfectly delicately, and, ultimately, we will have even more instances of the sort of activity which led to the current ArbCom. Freedom of expression, which you seem to be indicating is not necessarily an absolute here, is guaranteed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. If Bish-speak were somehow a violation of WP:CIVILITY, you might have a case, but I don't think it is. Certainly, the ArbCom could indicate to Bishzilla that she might do well to use her multilingual capacities a bit better in any future contact with them if they agree with you, and personally I wouldn't have any objections to their doing so. I know Bishzilla can still access some of her memories from when she was assimilated into Bishonen, like a Borg drone, probably including some linguistic skills. But there is a clear precedent that people can assume a false persona here and still operate. For what it's worth, "John" is my real middle name, and "Carter" ain't in there at all. It's generally been the case that the first time a
personsentient entity makes a mistake here, they get told it was a mistake, possibly with additional criticism, possibly not. But, even if Bishzilla wanted to, she couldn't change her prior actions now. Whether the case is accepted or not, if one of the Arbs tells her that in the future she should adopt more formal language when presenting to them, I'm certain she will. I know at least one of the Arbs, Newyorkbrad, who expressed misgivings of Bishzilla's, um, appetite during her RfA, takes the lingo as what it is. But this particular case is already about one editor being sanctioned by another for generally acceptable, if perhaps a bit less than perfectly "correct" speech, and I think it would be a really miserable precedent for us to insist that all such discussions be perfectly phrased. Bish-speak is probably more acceptable than the numerous perjoratives I've seen others use in Mediations, ArbComs, and whatever, and I don't remember those others being universally sanctioned in any way. And, like she said above, she clearly respects ArbCom, but it isn't a sacred altar. I've heard lawyers tell jokes in court to each other (really bad, obscure jokes, generally, but still jokes), and I don't think we should necessarily be even more strict than the courts themselves are.

Bishonen, Walton One compared your posts to RFAR to showing up to court in a clown suit. He was too kind. Your behavior these last few days has been like showing up to a funeral in a clown suit, littering the graves with balloon animals, and pretending you're in a position to take offense when a family member gasps. The Bishzilla joke isn't funny anymore. It isn't easy to reply to these antics in a civil manner. Please apologize and retire the Bishzilla account. DurovaCharge! 21:28, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- Sadly, I must concur with Durova here. The Bishzilla escapade was funny at first, but it's went too far now, no? Requesting arbitration in connection with a RfAr that has the September 11 attacks in its scope is rather inconsiderate of others, and I'd have hoped that you would have picked up on that. Similarly, using a joke account (regardless of whether it is flagged as an administrator or not) to request the desysopping of an administrator is simply insensitive towards that editor, most especially when that joke account uses broken english to communicate. Sorry, this has went too far; we're now at the stage where a Request for Comment is becoming warranted. Anthøny 22:07, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- Durova, I guess you didn't notice or didn't care that I asked you to refrain from posting on this page? If writing here is so irresistible, I'm afraid I'm going to start removing your posts, though I'm always reluctant to do that. Please desist instead.
- Doesn't it strike you as a little ridiculous to first attack me on Walton's page, and then follow up by asking me to keep your name out of it ("it"?) And what is my crime according to you? Is this seriously it: the way I phrased an RFAR for Tango's bad civility block of a former admin—MONGO, the actual injured party here, if you remember— who works thanklessly to keep the WTC attack pages factual has injured or offended you and others who had family members present in the buildings during that attack? Is that it? Or what? As for an RFC, Anthony, bring it on, I shall look forward to it. Bishonen | talk 23:14, 16 April 2008 (UTC).

- Bishonen, this is just one outsider's 2 cents. Like on many occasions, I'm all with Walton One on this one and I do consider his comments both spot-on and helpful. Imho, the Bishzilla language joke has grown a bit old. As for Durova's comments, I'm having a really hard time putting myself in your shoes as far as perceiving it as anything like an attack goes. Maybe you're just a bit unnerved because you sense that there's something to it? You should take care not to take self-directed anger out on well-intentioned third parties. Dorftrottel (bait) 23:46, April 16, 2008
-
(To Bishonen/zilla) I don't think Durova's comments on my page constituted an attack on anyone as such. She simply said Thank you for your decency. Imagine you had family in the World Trade Center, as I have. I think it's stretching it a bit to call that an "attack".
I also think it's telling that you are now using the Bishonen account, and normal English, to respond to this discussion - suggesting that you now take it seriously, since your conduct has been questioned. Which confirms my initial impression that you weren't really taking the RfArb seriously.
I'm not trying to attack you. You do a lot of good work for this encyclopedia (under both accounts) and I don't doubt your good faith. I don't think you intended to offend anyone. But it's a sensitivity issue, in the end. Any of us can be inadvertently insensitive - I do it all the time - but it's usually best to apologise, make amends, and move on.

- First, I was one mile away from the towers. Does that mean that I get one mile of umbrage to take to everything? I knew three people lost in the towers. Can I get three hypersensitive remarks? I breathed the fumes for a month. Do I get a month of specialness on Wikipedia?
- Durova's comments were absolutely an attack, and it's foolish to pretend otherwise. I realize the Durova and her friends have every reason to be embarrassed by what she said, but it's best to admit and deal head on with the comments, not to insist that there was nothing there. Saying, "NOPE, nope...nothing there" is to repeat and reiterate it.
- One person says, of the RfAr, "It's silly" and "Who gave Bishzilla the admin status?" Durova then comes to thank them for saying so? She connects Mongo to the WTC explicitly and the blocking of Mongo as a sign of sensitivity? The subtext to those comments is large print braille, and it's hideously crabbed and venomous.
- Mongo's not a friend of mine, but he keeps the WTC articles clean, and I consider that important. After all, I did see them happen, and I did breathe the fumes, and I did lose friends, and I did have to take the subway home and talk to people who had seen the bodies land.

- (Reply to Geogre) I didn't say "It's silly" or "Who gave Bishzilla the admin status?". Bishonen/zilla is a good admin, and I have no problem with her having the tools, on either account.
-
- I have no opinion as regards either MONGO or Tango, except that I know that both of them are good-faith editors who do a lot of work for this encyclopedia. I find this RfArb difficult, because there are people on both sides of the argument who I deeply respect. I'm just glad I'm not on the ArbCom and I don't have to make a decision.
[edit] Little archive please?
Hello little zilla...Waterman have slow interwebs and slow patiencewebs...little zilla archive talk page for Waterman? [turns tap on, laughs evilly, all your paintings are ruined]
No need for boring /Archive 1...little zilla use /Archive roar, /Archive roarr, /Archive roarrr, and keep adding "r" to end of word for each one, yes?
Good zilla. [pets]. dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) 10:47, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] A belated welcome
Welcome home, oh, courageous and mighty Bishzilla. Sooooooooooo happy to come across your footprints here and there. A big bunch of flowers for you (they are edible) - with my humble adoration! May the mighty new administrator always seek out evildoers wherever they are lurking at Wikipedia. WBardwin (talk) 02:48, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- [Bishzilla smirk graciously, put little user in pocket of spiderman suit. Roast sunflower seeds using atomic breath, and eat them. ] Tasty! Appreciate, little W! bishzilla ROARR!! 07:28, 20 April 2008 (UTC).

[edit] Hello George Mosley
Hi George. Did the president tell you to say that? - bpcresistance
- Bishzilla girl, not boy ! [Displeased, 'zilla blow girlishly on little resistance. Little user go brown round edges. ] bishzilla ROARR!! 11:56, 22 April 2008 (UTC).
- Bishzilla knows the president? I suppose it's only natural. After all, presidents, kings, premiers, vice admirals, and air wing commander Biggles would need to plead for their lives, not have country burned up. Utgard Loki (talk) 12:04, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Gurchzilla
User:Gurch signs himself as "Gurchzilla". Just how many relatives do you have, anyway? John Carter (talk) 14:42, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
- Ah! Bishzilla affectionately recollect drama of Gurchzilla, reflected in block log! [6] (Zillas enjoy drama always.) Bishzilla accidentally squash this zilla (expressing affection! huggling!), get unjustly blocked by Gurch (meanie bo feenie..?? Is Jurassic speech?) for misconceived time period, remain unjustly blocked until released through helpful death threat by Her Highness Bishonen. [Bishzilla lost in pleasant reveries of ancient drama. ] Suitably abject apology by Gurch here ! ['Zilla enthusiastically buttonhole little John Carter. ] While on subject, lemme tell you about Doczilla... bishzilla ROARR!! 23:54, 23 April 2008 (UTC).
