Writer's Block forum name

deadonthestreet

It really should be Writer's Bloc, not Block. Writer's block is a term for a person being unable to actually write anything creative, for no good reason. A writer's Bloc is, however, a group of writers who come together to discuss their works, and help themselves improve their writing. Unless you intendrd the title to be either ironic, or mean "block" as in a city block, then in the interest of correctness it should probably be changed. Unless this has already been discussed while I was too bust to visit the forums, in which case, ignore me. But yeah, bloc, not block.

It's called witty. Well, somewhat at least.

Thank you Legacy, for being the only person in this thread to get it.

I believe you actually said

which fails the italics test and there by renders your post worthless.

Better luck next time, ol' chap.

That was what I wrote.

Your technicality skills fail, Jim

Your initial reply of "Nah" had zero italicism. Zero is not enough. I'm sorry. Look, it's deadonthestreet. He's bound to make another shitty thread soon enough, maybe you can win some points in that one.

Well, I promised CT I'd try to be more like him. Wanna go oppress some users instead of arguing like this?

OMG You mean Block isn't complimentary to Corner?

It would actually be funnier if it was called Bloc.

Well, I say funnier. What I really mean is, right now it isn't actually a pun but if it were to be called Writer's Bloc then it would become a pun. Neither names are particularly funny, but at least Writer's Bloc displays some wit.

Wait...maybe...unless the joke is that it's upposed to sound like Bloc but you spelled it wrong. Fuck, I don't know. Call it Munkus and Bone's Wild Ride of Buttsecs for all I care.

To clarify:

It's a pun off of writer's block, the inability to write.

It's supposed to be like a city block.

The name is supposed to go with Artist Corner. You know, a street corner and a city block?

So you'd like us to change it from a homonym pun that you don't get to a homophone pun that you do get? No.

I figured there could be an anime, cartoons and comics forum called Cel Block A. See, that would be amusing. I think, at least.

I know it'll never happen, but *shrug*

Oh, and Block is much better than bloc.

I must be SATED!

Or not. Anywho, now that the origins of the Writer's Block thread have been cleared up, everything is write (get it? apparently thats a homophone pun) with the forums. I'm so glad for this thread.

deadonthestreet

Oh. It was supposed to be clever.

Carry on then.
