As for "This pad be public. Scratch it.", the main complaint motivating that it be changed was that it was too long. The current "View it" was not chosen with any regard to being politically correct, mostly just short. Unfortunately, it is harder to be quirky "on demand" so no short but still quirky replacement was found.

I want the quirks. I don't want to succumb to the bland "we must not offend, irritate, or confuse" mentality.

As I've said before, I'm all for "quirky". I haven't heard anyone advocating "we must not offend, irritate, or confuse" get taken seriously. I do try to avoid too much of those characteristics, but I also enjoy intentionally including such when I come up with something that "strikes my fancy". In fact, I've added quite a stash of quirkiness that no one has noticed (making it obvious just isn't as much fun). Though, Ovid, you'll have to log out in order to enjoy this lastest trickery.

I miss the old-style server error messages. I laughed my head off (ha, ha, thump) the first time I saw one.

I guess those predate me. ): Anyone care to reproduce one from memory for us new members?
