Right... well, bye Lugnet. That’s it for me.

I’ll come back once you figure out how to deal with idiots like Pete and the people who spotlighted his post.

~Kevoh, over and out.

Wait! Please stay, we need good builders like you. Your creations help make it
fun.

I hope all these constant attacks and slights on each other all go away.
Make it about the MOCs and the Brick itself, as it always was and should be.
That is why we are here to share the fun we get from building.
Some how it has mutated in to something else. All of you who read this have the
keys to make it better.

Need the answer? Look at the smile on the Lego mini-fig's face. That's the
answer.

All others maintain distance from the mirror.

Right... well, I’d say bye Kevoh, but I have the feeling this isn’t the end. Like a case of Type-2 Herpes, I think you’ll be back.

I see you left yourself an out. Well done, you wouldn’t want to be one of those knobs who makes a grand fairwell post and then comes back 3 months later. As for the “idiot”, what do you suggest? We could chastise him...banish him...call him rude names in a chatroom...send him an autograph photo of ++Lar in a thong...rip his fingers off with a claw-hammer...or just cap him. Sorry, I guess you’d have to come back to comment.
  
~Kevoh, over and out

If I had known it was so easy to drive you from the land, I’d have compared one of your previous mocs to an adult novelty item some time ago.

You must be reading a different Lugnet to the one I am reading. I see a great deal of humour (albeit somewhat puerile) and some fairly creative MOC building going on. The closest you get to attacks and slights seem to come mostly from the people that don’t see the humour (or perhaps even see that it is humour).

Picture it like a cinema. There might be a black comedy from France showing next to the latest Adam Sandler film (if you had a really weird cinema). Some people will find the Adam Sandler film puerile and dull and others will find the French film just odd and maybe even mean, but neither group is going to deny the other shouldn’t exist. We should all take a lesson from this amazing cinema.

Agreed! Tell a bad joke to a minifig and he’ll (yes I’m aware that there are female minifigs but statistically it will probably be a he) keep on smiling.

Not entirely sure what you mean here but if it’s about humour I’m all for it :)

Hey, can we leave the Bonktron comments to the items that specifically state they are Bonktron creations? (me, personally, doesn’t find much merit or taste in the Bonktron stuff, but that’s me).


Kevoh,

Good luck in college--you’re in a great city for architecture, as many of the NMRA attendees can attest to. Make sure you go to Museum Center and check out the architecture in that building. You might even see it’s LEGO replica on display there soon!)

Yes, I think some people here have been stuck in orbit around Sirius.

In the week that Bonktron emerges from below the asteroid belt, who would have imagined a flotilla of similar shaped craft would follow.

The classic smiley looks like he has popped one of Stanley Scibricks ‘e’s. There are plenty of oddball/strange minifig faces too.

Bonktron comes in many guises, we must maintain vigilance. Mock-Bonktron mocs must be unmasked. Ned Flanders appears to come in many guises too.

In a creative field like architecture, critical appraisal awaits, be prepared.

The fact that Pete’s post here got so many highlights is a perfect example of how lame lugnet.space has become in the last month. As said here, can we please keep the bonktron references limited to creations actually related to that?

Bonktron laid the benchmark. If you build in that style in the same week, it’s within context to reference it in any critique. I’m a stickler for accuracy.

That’s Bonktron with a ‘B’ and pete with a ‘p’.

gods peed.
