haha, I like your careful choice of wording. Not a blood brother, not a member, but an "associate". Almost sounds like discrimination. Can gay members be full fledged warriors of the squad or not?
We've got members, who belong to the SQUAD, like myself or Groink or Rude Buoy or Sarcasm. Then there are associates, who aren't SQUAD members, but who fight a lot of the same people we fight and whom we're in good terms with. Your MAAAAaaaa is an associate, as are guys like Danielson, DavidPaul, Blockhead, Jimmy the Fish etc.
You see 'kiwiol', the whole squad thing has become boring. It used to be funny, but now all the 'ownings' are exactly the same. You chaps need some new material.
As for the Y board, theres nothing more embarressing than a bunch of internet wiggers trying to sound cool. Maybe if the Y became a place for shocking vids like the stuff found on muchosucko/deviantclip/filecabi.net etc
While a lot of what we say is of the '.....is the kind of 'guy'....gayer than.....' format, we also say a whole lot of other things and insults. Check out these threads for yourself:

As for the Y, it's not my board, but it is slowly and steadily growing and it's only a matter of time before it picks up. Why don't you come and discuss stuff in the Y?
