There is a subforum where good threads go when they run their course, called the Comedy Gold Mine.

There is another subforum where bad threads go to be locked and forgotten by the world, called the Comedy Gas Chamber.

Gassing a thread means sending it to the Comedy Gas Chamber.

I think this is a vanity emote from a poster named Fuzzknot who has that weasel thing as an avatar?

She didn't buy it herself; Fuzzknot was the girlfriend of goon Bootcha, both of whom posted in the Star Citizen thread. :pgabz: and :eonwe: also had emotes bought for them. She got banned for getting a little overprotective of Bootcha regarding some comments by Sandi towards him, and (to my knowledge- I'm still a thousand loving pages behind in that thread) both of them have never posted in the SC thread since.

The emote itself, apparently, is of Rikki Tikki Tavi. Who or what the gently caress that is... I have no idea.

You mean the story of how the snake loses a fight to the mongoose, but then the snake's wife kicks the mongoose's rear end?
