The Dotted Breve does not condone the use of 'term defining', as stated in paragraph 13 of part 4 of page 20 in the Cafe's official rule and guideline handbook.
"20-IV-13: The use of definitions in order to allude to such blogs as 'The Neobrawnist' is not only discouraged but also extremely prohibited. For example, words such as "Krzwkxtpdnz" ( http://neobrawnism.blogspot.com/2013/01/krz-wkxt-pdnz-pronounciation-not.html?m=1 ) should be kept to blogs specifically dedicated to the defining of words. The Dotted Breve does not condone this type of behavior, and therefore requests that it's customers refrain from acting like krzwkxtpdnz's and respect it's guidelines."

I think this sounds like some kind of music-related brain-tumor for the tone deaf and/or individuals with little to no musical taste. Ex: "I love dubstep!" "I think you have a hemiola."

Grace, vulgar language is prohibited as said in paragraph 69 of part 7 of page 3 in the Cafe's official rule and guideline book. We respect your opinions, but we ask that you relax and refrain from vulgarity.

I find Casey's point irrevelent considering that no such guidebook has yet been published/distrubuted. Until such time that said guidebook is forthcoming, I feel all members should disregard said 'rules' that Mr. Huls attempts to enforce upon us.

In paragraph 8 of part 4 of page 9 in the Cafe's official rule book, it is written: "Rules shall hereby be made up as necessary, and must be respected by employees of the Dotted Breve".
