Must admit this made I larf
"86" means "get rid of" - it derives from 1930s café slang for "throw out" or "refuse to serve", mostly likely as rhyming slang for "nix".
Various snowflakes have adopted it since it is a lot nicer than saying "Kill", apparently. (Same logic as others are using the hideous "unalive", both as adjective and verb. )
But obviously if you are a paranoid megalomaniac, you will prefer that it says "kill" rather than "depose" since then you make a real fuss about it.Blog? What blog...?

Numbers in the sand = arrestable offence
Photoshop of times new roman letters MS13 onto the knuckles of someone = definitely not a photoshop, but evidence that he should be deported.
45,47 = evil

No, you have removed the context of what I was saying. Sorry if that's a little difficult to understandOriginally posted by NotAllThere View PostFTFY.
Of course, the correct response would have been "42". Which 45-47 clearly isn't.Blog? What blog...?
