AOW (All Out War) is a dwindling Proboard forum which displays the prime examples of failed role playing. It is a free form 'chat play' at best, being mostly composed of auto hitting, god modding, poor moderation, power playing, trolling, flaming, vulgarity and incessant bitching.
Opinions of AOW as a role play forum:

"Condemned to suffer? I'm suffering alright, suffering from emotional preteens blogging out of their asses."
-
"Wow. Just wow."
-
"What the hell is this crap?"
-
"Good god. Let me guess: it's another star wars plot ripoff."
-
"Nothing like watching kids play King of the Hill with a shit pile."
-
"I see no worthwhile role plays here. I see nothing, for that matter."

All Out War. It originated on Neopets on the Evil Things And Monster Sightings, and has a proboards site as well. When WPP (Wolf Paws Pack), Blood Bars, and all other clans ended, AOW continued to hold strong. It's main purpose is roleplaying, although it is also a place for chatting, showing off artwork, and just hanging out with the people AOWers meet (or not) online.
"Hey Silver, can you create the new AOW board?"

"All Out War owns WPP's face."

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
