Any Valiant specific slurs on this board?

Post by Sven the Returned »

Is it even a real franchise without certain subgroups using slurs to describe other groups of Valiant fans? The easier tearget would be Shadowman(at least new Shadowman) fans like me and we could go on from there. In Star Wars we had Fandalorians for example.

"Dunlow"

But only one person on the board qualifies as a "Dunlow".

It's too insulting to use on anyone else.

I'm pretty sure Canadian is used as a slur. Because, you know... We have Canadian Board members.

:lol:
I wonder what it would be like to be a lonely, muck-encrusted monster? Probably be an improvement.

If someone makes a joke and it then gets "explained" by someone else, that is known as "getting Chiclo'd."

IDK if that is an insult, but it is definitely a VF.com thing.

I think we should disparagingly refer to those who refuse to give VEI a try as sknobs.
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

What about the people who won't give the old VALIANTs a try? That should a "sknob," as the original behind-the-scenes crew was known as "Knob Row."

For anyone who gets really excited about the first four issues of a book, then shows the world that the book doesn't mean anything to them by the eighth issue, they should be called "nickbarruccis".

That was the reasoning behind my suggestion. Perhaps I should clarify that I meant it's fans of the old that won't try the new.

Yes, you should probably make sure you meant VALIANT/Acclaim instead of VEI.
