Website FAQs
WTF? A website is a website is a website, right? .... NOT!
Every once-in-a-while you'll see something here that you don't normally see around the web. Here's the place to find out what the heck it is.
OFL and YWL, Huh?
Q: Sometimes in the helpful hints I'll see OFL or YWL at the beginning. What the heck to they mean? -- Katie from Kissimmee
A: Hey, people have been coming to the Lower East Side for millennia. Some times young people and old people don't speak the same language or have the same historical references. Therefore (how dya like that nickel word?) when you see OFL it means the reference is in Old Fart's Language (e.g. transistor radio). If you see YWL it means that the reference is in Young Whippersnapper's Language (e.g. Gonna Tweet my h* for a hookup).
One Member? ONE?
Q: How come when I do a search the stats box says you only have ONE member? Does this place suck?
A: No, it doesn't. At the more than 40,000 visitors so far don't seem to think so. Did you even see a place to join? NO!
We only have one member now and it's Teddy. That's because the place is still in R&D and we haven't done any advertising or SEO yet. When your time comes, the Big Guy will let you know.
What's With the Colored Words?
Q: Sometimes when I'm reading I see green and blue words mixed in with the others. Am I drinking too much? -- LouElla from Lauderdale
A: No, those colored words are helpful hints and shortcuts. The blue ones display a helpful hint when you mouse over them, and the green ones are links to another page or even another website (Heaven's Lower East Side forbid you'd ever want to go to another website.)
Where are the Freakin Stories and Tales?
Q: Hey, what th' otherplace! I click on Stories and Tales and none show up. I'm pissed. -- Mavis from Massapequa
A: Keep your kilt down! We have a number of stories in final edit right now!
Why Do So Many Faces Here Look the Same?
Q: It seems that a lot of the faces on this website have a certain similarity. Why is that? -- Opal from Ontario, CA
A: The primary answer is that we can't afford a whole lot of actors and models. Besides, this is OUR version of Heaven isn't it?
Q: You seem to say we and our a lot around here. How many people work here and write this stuff?
A: Do you mean physical bodies or, um, personalities?
