Note to certain DUs: Please learn to spell it: Moron not Moron

[Imagine My Surprise]

Otherwise, it becomes a bit oxymoronic.

[XanaDUer]

1. It's an in-joke here.

...

[Roland99]

9. Yes. It's in reference to that now-famous pic:

[Midlodemocrat]

2. Note to Imagine my Surprise.

What are you saying? Did you mean to say spell it 'moron and not moran'? If so, it is an in joke here.

Trust me, Duers can spell. It's freeps who can't.

[POAS]

35. If you misspell "Moran" are you..

a "Moron" or a "Moran"?

[bicentennial_baby]

3. Ah...inside joke dude...

someone will post the pic shortly, i am sure

[ohio_liberal]

4. It's definitely MorAn

[XanaDUer]

6. There's the dude.

...

[bicentennial_baby]

8. w00t!

there he is! :bounce:

[kittenpants]

5. "moron" vs. "moron"

hmmm, I don't see the difference.

[suziedemocrat]

22. I know -- too funny!! Complaining about typos with a typo.

[PowerToThePeople]

49. Me either. "You might be a Moran if...." n/t

[Misunderestimator]

7. Tell it to him:

[stepnw1f]

10. Are You Sure Man?

I guess I'll have to edit everyone of my posts criticizing B*sh supporters.

[BiggJawn]

11. Next time, why not ASK if there's a reason we spell it "Moran"...

...instead of being the Spelling Nanny....

[EST]

46. Yes!

Or spend some time reading and looking around before trying to play spelling police to seventy thousand others. (Grumpily)

[katinmn]

12. LOL. A freeper invented his own way to spell "moran"

Inside joke. You had to see the picture he was holding.

Just like one spelled "Providense" down in Crawford.

and HUGH!!!! for huge.

We almost have enough for a freeper dictionary.

[Pool Hall Ace]

33. The other day I clicked on a freep link someone had posted,

and I saw, "This is HUGH!" I'm thinking either

a. the poster's name is Hugh, or
b. "hugh" for "huge" is an inside joke over there, or, most likely,
c. the poster thinks H-U-G-H spells huge.

What a bunch of morans!

[bahrbearian]

13. MORAN

[KyndCulture]

14. AHhhhhhhhhhh runs screaming...

calgon take me away!

GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND!

[Midlodemocrat]

16. Where is ATA when you need it??

[katinmn]

19. LOL!

:rofl:

[HuckleB]

15. Actually, I like "Moron not Moron" a lot.

As an alternative to Moran.

Actually, that would be a great user name, too.

[charlie]

17. Great band name

Moran Moran

[soup]

21. .

:rofl:

[IChing]

27. Yes, I remember that band they came a little before Duran, Duran

They tried to sue, but the judge said it should of been moron moron or something like that,
they never seemed to make it in the states.

[katinmn]

24. I love it when people try to make corrections and then make a

silly mistake. Makes me :evilgrin:

[Pirate Smile]

41. I know. LOL.

:evilgrin:

[NRaleighLiberal]

18. Too bad we don't have Bugs Bunny with a "What a Maroon" sign!

[SlowDownFast]

20. Only morans can't spell moron.

and only morans post:

"Note to certain DUs: Please learn to spell it: Moron not Moron"

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

23. Correction. Oxymoranic. ;) eom

[driver8]

25. It's "moran", not "moron", newbies!

I'm kidding.

I simply prefer the freeper "moran".

[nankerphelge]

26. Here's how I look at it... (taken from other thread)

A moran is a special breed of moron. An unthinking, illogical, ditto-headed, ultra-moron. You can't insult your average run-of-the-mill moron by lumping them in with the morans. It needs to be added to the dictionary...

[SaveAmerica]

30. Are you saying it's the present perfect of 'moron'?

[goodboy]

28. Why have you started TWO threads on this?? (nt)

[katinmn]

37. Looks like a drive-by

It's cool because now all the newbies will get the full history. :)

[liberalnurse]

44. Looks like he ran away.

It must be the shame.... :hi:

[Me.]

29. Also

as written upthread it's DUers, not DUs

[catmandu57]

47. Some of us are even

EVILDUers :evilgrin:

[0007]

31. Hmmmmmmm

[democrank]

32. Gawd..........

Imagine my surprise. I`m sitting here worried about the war in Iraq, a Category 5 hurricane, Darfur, my empty fuel barrel, Bush`s sanity and now this....

moron?
moran?
moranic moron?
moronic moran?

So many problems, so little time.

[Kindigger]

34. Found another fun one yesterday

at a site which shall remain unnamed, and to which I will not return to get the full quote...

ProWar demonstrations vs. Camp Casey referred to as "Cutler's Last Stand"

[democrank]

36. Oh, Cutler. Right.

One of those guys who waits on the Queen of England.

[Libby2]

38. bwahahaha

I'm not surprised.

[rbjensen]

39. Ha!

I'm thinking this inside joke oughta be on the home page or something! I know I went to the dictionary when I first got on here because I thought I might be spelling it wrong! Anyway, that pict is a classic and deserves its own hall of fame.

[blue sky at night]

40. Careful now.........

when you use those big words like Oxymoronic we get all confused and shut down sometimes. BTW, you, uh, did proofread your post before clicking on the "Post Message" button?? I can't figure out if I am a Moron or a Moron, can someone help me please??

Hey, Just kidding, Imagine My Surprise........WELCOME TO DU :) :), we have a big tent here and where have you been??

[Gold Metal Flake]

42. It's flypaper.

And it works!

[Generic Other]

43. Morans Rule!

[Cha]

45. You're spelling it the same way

twice..what's up with that?

[dweller]

48. there is only ONE and forever ONE *moron

his toadies and followers are the 'morans'.
