| Hi, this is my "me" page, blablabla, nothing here yet, but this is currently a dumping-ground for material I need to cut-and-paste. Feel free to use it yourself if you wish. But if you do, you must be very bored. Or lonely. Don't whittle away hours voting, go find a stub and flesh it out. Read a WikiBook. Take a virtual ]. Anything! | |||

| * "when in doubt, Vfd!" | |||
| * "always reread your posts!" | |||
| my paste-ins (very, very bored) | |||
| * (generic crap) "mental note: add to "list of things that make you go '-cruft'!"" | |||
| * (micronations) "'''Delete''' all micronations" | |||
| * (nobody bands) "Not notable on Google? Then not notable on Misplaced Pages either. Sorry bro, but that's showbusiness for ya!" | |||

| * (advertisements) | |||
| * (forum handles) "NO forummer will EVER be worthy of mention on Misplaced Pages, unless there is a noteworthy real-world person behind that handle." | |||
| * (links/farms) "sorry, this is not Google Directory." | |||
