    I was 86'd from a club for paying my floor fee in pennies....

    =-)

    Hello my fencers my name is Steph
    In order to avoid Litigious dread.
    This text you read pours from
    my head...and I have been very
    N A U G H T Y

    =-)

    The tale you're about to read
    comes fresh and true from the world we breathe.
    about a visit I paid to a club on Saturday in 2010
    specifically March 13th. I was so
    N A U G H T Y

    10:15 AM! The Salle where she is Queen.
    with neglected Prince and King trapped
    between the devil and the deep blue
    sea. I felt so giddy because I was about to be very
    N A U G H T Y

    I thought of the smile the Queen would cast
    that hid a sword that only draws blood from the back
    To my simple questions she would lie for there
    is a certain strength of character she sadly lacks
    (only fueling my desire to be very ...)
    N A U G H T Y

    So after a few histrionic pleasantries
    I produced the legal tender for my floor fee
    One Thousand and Seven Hundred coins You see
    because 1700 pennies to me equals...
    N A U G H T Y

    A Maelstrom of realizations exploded
    like an A Bomb deep within her mind.
    This payment was RIGHTEOUS RETRIBUTION
    In the most Avant Garde form of any kind.
    Her feeble protest only encouraged me to continue to be ...
    N A U G H T Y

    What is the big deal dear Queen it is legal tender for all debts public and private according to my attorney
    I'm terribly sorry but it's all I have and you have received your floor fee...
    the look of defeat in her eyes only fanned the flames of ....
    N A U G H T Y

    She said I would have to talk to her King
    because she could no longer bare another moment with me.
    since he was giving a lesson and payment was rightfully received
    I concluded talking to him could be done later and I just suited up to fence those
    I was there to meet...
    (oh I was so...)
    N A U G H T Y

    I was hooking up to the Piste
    and the King approached me putting on his best Henry Clay
    He said Please Please Please the Queen does not deserve to be treated that way...
    He knew the score and knew well enough I would know what he really had to say...
    Please Steph please she's making my life hell and tonight I really want to get laid...

    I told him my situation of being strapped for time and cash
    I did apologize to him for it being all I had...
    figuring the joke had been delivered and it exceeding all
    expectations I agreed to get the change converted and I'd
    return with fold-able legal tender for the floor fee.

    I went off to fence he went off to coach and that
    was simply the way it was going to have to be.
    Because he knew better than anyone the animosity
    his Queen has held onto for years over me.

    This Queen filled with Envy and Greed
    for years has looked upon me with
    an admiration destined to turn to
    jealousy.
    How else do you explain them naming
    their club after the word that describes me
    undoubtedly to a tee.

    So I finished fencing suited down and there I was
    off to town.
    I called out to the King I would be back
    as soon as I could with folding legal tender
    to which he quickly replied "take your paper bag and
    don't come back!

    Saiyonara Dear King and tell your son
    he's the one you Love
    And Sad Queen in the future learn to take a joke instead of just being one
    and forgive me my faults as I do forgive your own sometimes I just can't resist being just a little....

    Just a guess, but it may not be the pennies that got you tossed...

    Actually he can't (or at least not with the response he wrote).

    FNet removes all capitalization from posts that are all uppercase. It doesn't look at the quoted text when triggering that mechanism, but does strip the capitalization from it once the auto-edit is triggered.
