Please avoid NSFW or home pics in posts
A simple request, to allow my continued readership at mgoblog. Please don't post large NSFW pics at any time. My wife was not happy this morning as she walked in behind me with a pic posted in the "pimp hand" post. I am on a short leash, so to speak. I also have 9 year old twins, boy and a girl, and they don't need to see this stuff. It's inappropriate, and not funny. And my office would be just as bad or worse (to see this kind of post.) I'm not complaining on my own behalf, but because of my family. I'm not suggesting censorship, but much more of this and I'll just be dropping out of visiting mgoblog in the future. I suppose, if some of you want me to leave the blog for good, you can keep at it. Whatever. But those of you in high school and college and your 20's and 30's who are single guys with your tongues hanging out, remember that some of us have families.
I think the mods used to get after this stuff, but there are now too many posts.
Kthxbye.
[PaulVB] I thought it was fairly common knowledge that mgoblog is better than a bunch of guys posting cheesecake pictures and talking about how women should be in the kitchen because all they're good for is making sandwiches. If you're thinking "Maybe I should say this is NSFW," maybe it's not something you should be posting on a Michigan sports blog [/PaulVB]

Be more creative as to why you are commenting on a college sports blog. If she doesn't understand, then say this "me time", and doesn't reflect on the family.
Word to the Godfather!

I looked at this thread when it only had five responses but didn't have the wit to get a quick one in before going to dinner. Now shits all blowed up and I missed out on an all time thread. Oh well, BOOBS.
December 12th, 2010 at 1:05 AM ^
BE ADVISED:
This thread is hilarious. It is also inappropriate on a bunch of different levels. Do not read near bosses, children, or wives who lack a certain, shall we say, sense of humor.
If everyone understands this basic fact, then maybe, MAYBE the Mods will allow us to keep this gem, so that some day when the world is beating you down, you may look back upon it and smile.
December 12th, 2010 at 2:14 AM ^
This thread will end well.

Sounds like it might be time to exercise the pimp hand a little bit.
December 11th, 2010 at 10:23 PM ^
but whenever i read your posts I think of your avatar speaking the words you write. And strangely the aggressive cigar chompin' I-don-give-a-f*ck-what-you-think Braylon makes everything at least 100% better.
December 12th, 2010 at 1:33 AM ^
I second Braylon.. Don't come on here whining... I love to see the humor and awesome pictures with the captions... The cat in the snow saying too much cocaine is my favorite at the moment. I don't want that to end because someone is afraid of repurcussions from the wife or boss. If thats the case, then you shouldn't be on this site at work or home... Get a personal computer... Thanks...
December 11th, 2010 at 8:52 PM ^
I'm pretty sure reading the blog at work instead of, you know, working, is frowned upon regardless of the photo content.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:05 PM ^
I read over lunch when I'm on break. My boss has no problem with me browsing the UFR and stuff like that on my personal time. Now with a bunch of NSFW photos, then he starts caring.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:17 PM ^
Maybe you shouldn't be on a message board at work?
December 11th, 2010 at 8:53 PM ^
Gotta go find that pimp hand post...
December 11th, 2010 at 8:55 PM ^
yeah, it's about three pages back and there's a pic of a bikini-clad butt in it. i had to check too.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:17 PM ^
December 11th, 2010 at 9:08 PM ^
I definitely went back and pos-banged the picture just to counteract anything the OP is trying to accomplish.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:53 PM ^
Sounds like your wife has the Pimp Hand
December 11th, 2010 at 9:32 PM ^
My wife requests that eveyrone stop posting stupid cat pictures.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:53 PM ^
Please show some respect for our tongue disorders. That long, slobbery thing just won't stay in my mouth, and I'm told it with stay as such til I get a family.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:54 PM ^
I agree with the OP. I read this blog at school in the library a lot and sometimes it's really embarrassing, and the OMG BOOOBZ pics are almost always completely unnecessary.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:57 PM ^
OT, but I always feel such a sense of camaraderie when I see someone reading mgoblog in the library or fishbowl
December 11th, 2010 at 10:22 PM ^
someone who chose the username R Kelly has a problem with this.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:55 PM ^
Actually you are requesting censorship.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:07 PM ^
No. He's asking you to refrain from posting NSFW material, he's not threatening to remove your NSFW material.
The latter would be censorship.
December 11th, 2010 at 10:36 PM ^
wouldn't all this be solved by NSFW tags in titles? even if it's a comment if you scroll slowly you can see the NSFW tag in the comment header and close that tab before anyone sees.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:55 PM ^
You honestly want to tell a group of people on the internet to be polite? Good luck with that bro. You probably just made it 10 times worse.
Sounds like it would be easier to just get your balls back from your wife
December 11th, 2010 at 8:56 PM ^
the cat wasn't actually harmed. Mine do that all the time.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:57 PM ^
I think mgoboard is pretty good at keeping it clean. If you go on the rivals boards many users have NSFW pictures in their signatures.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:58 PM ^
That could be the dumbest reason ever to be in hot water...
December 11th, 2010 at 9:01 PM ^
I feel like a little context would just explain everything, it's not like it's a whole page of TnA
December 11th, 2010 at 10:09 PM ^
December 11th, 2010 at 11:11 PM ^
If by "telling" you mean "awesome." MGoLadies know how we roll.
December 11th, 2010 at 10:23 PM ^
But it sure is now. As Flounder would have said, "Oh, boy! Is this great!"
December 11th, 2010 at 9:07 PM ^
Did he point out the cute kid in the pick to his wife?
December 11th, 2010 at 8:59 PM ^
excuse me, the OP has inspired a much deserved bubble bath for yours truly accompanied only by some candles and the sounds of kenny g.
December 11th, 2010 at 8:58 PM ^
Did your wife teach you the "kthxbye" sign-off?
December 11th, 2010 at 9:04 PM ^
He's trying to appease her after simply using "Okay, thank you. Goodbye" to sign off.
Tough household.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:00 PM ^
December 11th, 2010 at 9:00 PM ^
I mean...come on my man. I have a wife. I have two kids under the age of 4. Tell your wife to get over it.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:00 PM ^
Is this in regards to the pic of the back of a girl in a bikini? Ok, maybe we should mark posts with NSFVWMTIWOYS
Not Safe For Viewing While Mother Teresa Is Watching Over Your Shoulder
I kid, but the reality of the situation is that we all see much worse than that during the commercials of childrens shows on a daily basis. That being said, I have and will keep the discussion to Michigan, unless it's really really funny.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:13 PM ^
There's a lot of skin showing in your avatar guy. I demand that you remove it at once. If you don't I swear I'll only check this blog 25 times a day, as opposed to the 50 I'm currently doing.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:00 PM ^
have fun on the scout or rivals site.
your chick sounds a little uptight.
Also, you should request removal of the headline "Utah's size concerns U-M - that's what she said" (under the mgo.licio.us category). It might burn your kids' eyes out.
December 11th, 2010 at 9:04 PM ^
Wow, me thinks someone's wife wears the pants. How uptight can someone be if they get upset over a butt in a thong?
December 11th, 2010 at 9:11 PM ^
I think most of us agree with keeping the NFSW stuff out of posts. But I also think we have a different viewpoint about what qualifies as NSFW.
My take? If it can be shown on broadcast TV before 11:00, it's probably kosher.
Or, as an alternative option,
I kid because I care.
