UnBooks talk:Fluffy The Murderous Cat

Doing Captain Obvious's dirty work

Okay, folks, I'd like to make it clear that this is DEFINITELY not finished yet. (This message up here will be deleted when it is.) Dannehvirus 02:51, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, but remember, this is a comedy site, not a short story site. There are some laughs in the story, yet mostly short horror and murder-mystery. Aleister in Chains 12 Jan. MMX

Just put the abridged Readers Digest version on mainspace when you're done. (Sometimes it DOES take writing the whole thing out before you can make the funny cuts, you should see the first draft of the Bible!)  ~ Avast Matey!!!

Abridged... Reader's Digest version... Mainspace? Perhaps I oughta tell you that I'm only in my teens and have limited knowledge of this kind of thing. You may have to do an UnBook For Dummies about it for me. Dannehvirus 22:13, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

Ah, a young teen. We sacrifice those to the Uncyclopedia Volcano. Unless you have boobs, if you have boobs you will not be thrown into the Volcano. Reader's Digest was an old magazine your grandparents would read, it took articles and even books and condensed them into something like a quarter or less of their size so that the morons, your grandparents, could read them and not have to read a complete book. I read a book once, and the experience is overrated. As for mainspace, someone else will explain that, but you need to put an article up before you are "legally" elegible for noob of the month. Talk to the Happy dancing carrot, he'll give you the lay of the land. OK, get dressed for the Volcano, but first there is a party! (but leave it alone, still in progress).

A volcano party, you say? Time to break out the fireproof tux. Dannehvirus 22:52, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

I suppose that means you don't have boobs. —Paizuri MUN (Talk • Contribs • Poll!) 23:31, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

Aleister that was an excellent description of a Readers Digest condensed version, thanks! (Though I suppose in the future I'll limit my allegorical comparisons to that of a fastfood dollar menu reference.)

Ahem, Mainspace is the big dark world out beyond Userspace. (Careful, thugs and grues live there.) In order to avoid having your article huffed you may have to carry your own oxygen supply.

Userspace is the magically delicious world of gumdrops and rainbows wherein you have complete control of everything you write, create or spawn; and it will live forever and ever and happily ever after (unless you ASK for it to go away). Leaving your poor defenseless articles in Mainspace may cause terrible heartache or the consumption of your soul if they haven't been properly brought up to face the world. (If you feel your little guy might not do so well on his own then you can always invade the talk portion of another's userspace to beg for assistance.)

Good luck & Godspeed. I hope this hleps.  ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!*  (talk) (stalk) Π   ~  ~  15 Jan 2010 ~ 09:24 (UTC)

Reader's Digest still exists, by the way. I believe it's one of the best-selling magazine in some little country called the United States of America. And Aleister, what do we do with young teens with boobs? WHY???^{PuppyOnTheRadio} 02:25, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Also Dannehvirus, if and when you want your article reviewed, you can click on the Pee Review link to the left of your screen. Or on the handy dandy link I just made. WHY???^{PuppyOnTheRadio} 02:29, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Hey! I put the Pee Review path under the "face the world" link up above. Don't you read anything? Gosh! (Then again, maybe we should put guidance on the main talk page?)  ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!*  (talk) (stalk) Π   ~  ~  16 Jan 2010 ~ 21:06 (UTC)

If Readers Digest still exists nobody I know has seen a copy in years. An under the radar publication for the American older set. As for teens with boobs, at a minimum we don't throw them into the Uncyclopedia volcano, some users sweet talk them, adopt and spank them, and others invite them to a party!

Oh it still exists alright. I saw it just last week. I used it to stoke the fires of the Uncyclopedia volcano.  ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!*  (talk) (stalk) Π   ~  ~  19 Jan 2010 ~ 07:37 (UTC)

You're doing good work

I played around with the Prologue a little bit to show you an example of how to do color and stuff. Feel free to change it back. It seems to me that the transition from the prologue into the main story is a little abrupt for me. You may just want to expand it a bit so the story flows a little better. (Or not. You don't have to do a damn thing anyone tells you to do; life's cool like that.)  ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!*  (talk) (stalk) Π   ~  ~  16 Jan 2010 ~ 21:06 (UTC)

I don't really understand how the really light-grey letters help it though. I kinda had to squint to see it and I don't want readers of the article hurting their eyes. This isn't Seizure. But thanks anyway. Dannehvirus 21:46, January 17, 2010 (UTC)

Me either-- the gray grey was just an example. The bold is a better transition.  ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!*  (talk) (stalk) Π   ~  ~  19 Jan 2010 ~ 07:37 (UTC)

YES. BOLD WRITING IS GOOD. SO IS ALLCAPS. MY NEXT ARTICLE WILL BE BOLD AND ALLCAPS. IT MAKES ME FEEL MANLY. HUR HUR HUR. Dannehvirus 21:47, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

I know what you mean, _{Sub text makes me feel small and unwanted.}  ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!*  (talk) (stalk) Π   ~  ~  20 Jan 2010 ~ 02:17 (UTC)

The title

Shouldn't it be "Unbooks: Fluffy the Murderous Cat"? —Paizuri MUN (Talk • Contribs • Poll!) 23:22, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Nevermind, looks like Socky took care of it. —Paizuri MUN (Talk • Contribs • Poll!) 23:37, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

I fix, I does! —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 02:28, 20 January 2010

I thanks you, I does! A legend, you is! Dannehvirus 03:43, January 20, 2010 (UTC)
