I don't get it The Resident Loon either.
I mean, it's not like you have to read his posts, I've not read a single one by him, I just tried to read that new one 'cus of the attention it got on here, got up to a load of words begining with 'b' that was a euphanisum for his penis, and thought "Fuck that" and came straight back here to tell you that.

It may be a cultural thing.
I have gotten used to reading Britspeak and have gotten used to the strange euphemisms that appear on the QOTW for various things, so usually I glance over them and translate them to English in my head and keep going. It makes them easier to read, somehow. Not just his posts, but all of them.

It's a bit weird, though- the people who are popular and get a lot of votes on a recurring basis seem to draw a lot of ire. First Legless, then Pooflake, then SpankyHanky... I guess I just have a higher tolerance for wordy posts than most.

I have no problem with wordy.
But I have no truck with turdy.

I am struggling to overlook your allusion
that "Britspeak" and English aren't one and the same thing.

They aren't.
One of the two doesn't exist.

Well...
until I came to this site I had never encountered "todger", "mimsy", "spam purse" or any of the other dozens of odd phrases used for anatomical bits or various sex acts. Since I've been here I've learned a lot about rhyming slang and the other oddities that infest British English that the rest of the English speaking world don't seem to bother with. It takes a lot of effort to translate it, frankly. So Spanky's terminology is not much of a stretch for me to understand and translate.

'until I came to this site I had never encountered "todger"'
Not what I've heard.

Pooflake is a punning genius.
I have no beef with Pooflake.

I've always hated joining sevrel swear words or animals together to form a new swear, like "Aligator shitcunt" and "Wanking Rhyno Bumfarts".
I find it really unimaginative, like Might Boosh, lolrandom and lolwaki isn't my cup of tea.

I don't mind wordy as long as the words add something to the story, and I find meaningless similies that are written just for the sake of fille, dull.

Agreed.
"badger twunts" is not an effective swearword. Not like "fucking cunts" is.

Yes, and yes once again for emphasis.

Listen out for the backwards sitar music.

I feel precisely the same way.

as do I
if it rolls off the tongue then perhaps fair enough, but they usually don't

You should change your band name to
'Wanking Rhyno Bumfarts'
