And it's your connection that's slower than turtle sex.
In........................................................Out .
Right, I'm going to list the running jokes bungie has, both Bungie-made and Community made, so the new users know what we are talking about:
Webmaster : Alcoholic monkey with a cowboy hat, answers Bungie's
mail. Yoozel and Webmaster once had a drinking contest, and it went for 7 years.
Soffish : A water-absorbing fish (supposedly a toy) who's whereabouts are currently unknown.
Mister Chief : Mister Chief is drawn each Weekly Update by Frankie (O'Connor), and is basically him just doing his version of MC in various settings...weird...weird settings.
Teh new hotness : A term old members use to describe the new site, it is also used as a joke when a member troubleshoots about the site glitching up for them.
Teh old sweetness Used by the old members to refer to the old site.
Ling-Ling : A dog who was decapitated, and his head was taken, if you change the xbox's date to 7/7/07, you can see a lost poster looking for him in New Mombasa, replacing the Sharks sign.
Death by ninja : Blacklisting.
Shishka is a pegboy : This one got some spotlight recently. You can probably still find the thread around here somewhere. This was the thread of choice by a spammer named Watermelon King (or something like that). This was back in the day where Shishka and Sketch I think were the only 2 moderators. After this little incident man new mods were named. Some think it was merely coincidental, I don't question because I fear the hippo-licking.
"open all windows" button : This one is from Recon. He often thinks about clicking said button when he goes to blacklist someone, but fears that in doing so would blacklist B.net into the stone age!
"From the black depths of the primordial soup, rose a single crouton.": A quote from the part that shows how Bungie became to what it is today.
Seven is darker: Al Leela said this while saying a series of random gibberish when she was damaged in Marathon (One of Bungie's older games)
Kitchen #8: This is more of a phenomenon than a running joke, but anyway, a user posted a thread in the Flood forums asking it's readers to "vote for #8" in a "ugliest kitchen" contest, during the course of the day, the thread gained popularity, with even Frankie posting there, plus several threads were created to see how the contest was going, and even a chapter was created dedicated to "worshiping the holy kitchen 8", not to mention a wikipedia sub-article was created to notify it. In the end, kitchen #8 won by a landslide, and the Floodians are still discussing it in the follow up thread.
I know that I've missed quite a lot, so just tell me which ones I've missed, give a small description and I will update it.
