panther salve : 1. The topical medicine presented by the Beanies to Megan in frame 2670.

I'm suddenly unable to read the fifth mirrored line as anything but "panther salve." Coincidence? Maybe... (@BlitzGirl, OTT:1231:20)

Odetity time.... / image / The panther salve is not for my cracked bean.... (@azule, OTT:1430:36)

pastpage : Any page of the OTT that is not the latest page.

PBCAK : Problem Between Chair And Keyboard — or in other words, "my bad". (not an OTT-specific term)

PDN : Paint.net, or the image-editing program available therefrom.

pengoat : The OTTer who makes the post in the 38th position (0-based counting) on a page, i.e. just prior to the goat.

Can anyone agree that pengoat can be the name of the pengoatimate poster? (@azule, OTT:2203:38)

pengoatimate : The 38th post on a page (literally, "almost goat").

However the newpix stamp shown next to it is the pengoatimate post, i.e. post 38 (if we start counting at Pope=0) for reasons that are a little more clear if you knew how hard it is to parse the HTML to figure out when we're in the start of a new post. (@mrob27, OTT:2202:18)

penungulate : The 38th post on a page (literally, "almost hooved-mammal").

I also dreamed I would get the penungulate post, and now the bots are telling me that I did. Freaky! (@Timborme, OTT:1726:38)

phqmm : Pre-Hat-Queue-Mob-Mob

Okies, you're added to the Pre-Hat-Queue-Mob-Mob (which is the holding spot for any new hats until I complete those in the hat-queue-mob).

popedom : n. 1. The domain of a pope. (Outsider POPE + -DOM)

:Oh, and HAPPY POPEDOM HELPER (@beargarden, OTT:203:8)

Next you'll be telling me I've been awarded a buffyhat and popedom or something... (@jetpac, OTT:614:33)

Yea, Page Popedom (@pelrigg, OTT:1177:26)

there have already been a few posts unwittingly under my popedom (@jetpac, OTT:1314:0)

So, this title (Pope of Love) could distinguish the Popedom of the Holy Contradiction from the Popedom of the NewPage, and would not apply to me but to the Popedom itself. (@ucim, OTT:1680:19)

2. The act or state of being made pope. (akin to MARTYRDOM)

Temporal edit to prevent myself from popedom (@karhell, OTT:1881:38)

poperaptor : A T-rex.

Do pengoats get sacrificed to Pendragons? (@BlitzGirl, OTT:2204:1)   ⌇   The T-Rex would of course be some OTTification of PENRAPTOR, "chief raptor" (which itself isn't OTTish enough). (@mrob27, OTT:2204:17)   ⌇   Poperaptor? (@BlitzGirl, OTT:2204:20)

ppb : primordial pixel of butter, a unit of mass equal to 5.6 g or about 0.198 oz

(@mrob27, OTT:2119:19)

ppm : a unit of mass equal to 1000 ppb, 5.6 kg or about 12.35 lb

Since "ppb" means "parts per billion" to the Outsiders, and inasmuch as this ambiguity is too good an opportunity to ignore, I choose to avoid the standard prefixes ("micro", "milli", "kilo", "mega", etc.) for this unit and instead define multiples as follows: / ... 1 ppm = 5.6 kg ~= 12.35 lb (@mrob27, OTT:2119:19)

ppt : a unit of mass equal to 10-3 ppb, 5.6 mg

(see etymology citation under ppm)

present : 1. The current frame of Time.

I'm waiting to see if when the glimpsed future arrives in the present, whether the hash is the same and stops returning a 404, or if it arrives with a different hash. (@bugstomper, OTT:62:39)

pricklymolp : The molpy first seen in frame 2015

Finally we have a firm species identification! It's a "little prickly". (@xpatiate, OTT:836:30)   ⌇   In case my lame joke wasn't clear, I was suggesting Cueball was using the term "little prickly" in an adjective-nouny kind of way.

Prime Directive : "Wait For It".

Proto-Indo-European : The substitute for "pie" during Mod Madness 2013.

Just to prove to myself that I've retained my sanity despite the last couple of pages of babycancer fonts, I be now going to copy/paste wikipedia's article on "Proto-Indo-European" into a quote box for no apparent reason: / This article be about the baked good.

(See the cueball entry for etymological citations.)

Q04B : This hotdog, based on "2048".

QFT : Quoted For Truth. A short way of saying "I agree!" in a followup post, and against the rules of the xkcd fora.

qong : An ong of an installment of @Pfhorrest's Quelouva story.

The Chronicles of Quelouva / Since people in this thread presumably like big stories that unfold very slowly, and also seem generally supportive of community creative projects, I thought some of you might be interested in something I just posted about elsewhere on the forum.

(@Pfhorrest, OTT:2612:32)

quacktor : A duck.

"A bit less yappocised" is like saying "yeah we had a flood, but it wasn't quite zanclean" whilst watching quacktors swim around your roof. (@HES, OTT:1921:12)

Queball : An alternate spelling of Cueball with a small but loyal following.

Too bad she didn't test the bridge but walks away in a "decision is made" way. I feel sorry for Queball. (@arjan, OTT:26:20)

Why is Queball such a slacker? Megan does about 95% of the work. (@Davidy, OTT:283:27)

Is Queball giving up? Does he feel the trip takes to long? Does this mean the end of Time? (@Neil_Boekend, OTT:735:17)

rabbird : The shapeshifting creature resembling a bird in frame 1397 and a rabbit in frame 1398.

look out, Cueball, don't step on those rabbird6 eggs! / 6: TBD (@mscha, OTT:645:10)

I wonder if this is the fabled rabbird in it's rabbid form or just a regular Rabtor of Caerbanhog. (@Neil_Boekend, OTT:1619:31)

rabtor : 1. The creature initially called a rabbird, seen in frame M1398 and vaguely resembling a rabbit in profile.

I prefer Lagomorpha-Raptors (@Dracomax, OTT:645:11)   ⌇   We do need a cutesy name, though. ... I can't think of anything better than lagoraptor (@mscha, OTT:645:13)   ⌇   Morp? Pharap? Morphas? Lago? (@Dracomax, OTT:645:14)   ⌇   Rabtor? (@mscha, OTT:645:30)

RAE : See TL;RAE,CCN

Randallville : The OTT and OTC-releated culture.

(A reference to this filk of Margaritaville by @StratPlayer)

Randamn : OTTification of Goddamn.

Randamn it, Cueball, can't you put some antecedents with your pronouns? (@BlitzGirl, OTT:812:11)

Randammit : OTTification of Goddamnit.

Randamnit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a...hmm. That meme doesn't quite work here. (@BlitzGirl, OTT:911:16)

Randix : In the OTT's ecclesiastical calendar, the dix on which the OTC began (Monday), and the first dix of the wip.

RandONG : 1. Portmanteau of Randall and ONG.

Oh My RandONG: / / Cueball was already drawing in the past 2 frames... (@BlitzGirl, OTT:1065:38; see OMR)

2. A randomly-selected frame of Time, posted an a ONG (abbreviated rONG q.v.).

Just wanted to peek my molpy head in and say the randONG I saw back here made me sad. It was the last sandcastle. (@Valarya, OTT:1365:15)   ⌇   In each of the automatic modes, it now displays "live replay mode", "auto-play mode", or "randONG mode" just below the frame to indicate that it probably knows what it's doing.

raptor : 1. A velociraptor (as in Jurassic Park, referencing previous xkcd cartoons)

There would be no point for a raptor to smash the castle and scare away the pair before this date. (@Beatrice The Golden, OTT:11:18)

Hmm, I guess if it's long enough, a little silliness in the middle wouldn't ruin the sincerity. Not sure I'd agree with Godzilla. As others have said, maybe raptors or red spiders. :) (@azule, OTT:16:29)

I'm just waiting for the sudden spontaneous frame where a half-dozen raptors appear, trouncing over the castle, right before getting hit by a meteor. (@Carteeg_Struve, OTT:96:22)

I like this theory! I mean, I would, if not for the lack of raptors. (@udscbt, OTT:340:23)

2. A bird. (Because of their relationship to dinosaurs, see xkcd 1211)

Thai-la-ONG image, frame 1276 / Edit: A bird! (@Kazza3, OTT:598:2)   ⌇   Hmm, the bird is apparently unusual enough to Cueball and Megan to have held their attention for a while. (@Rule110, OTT:599:0)   ⌇   I can't believe you people. It's a raptor, sillies! :roll: (@buffygirl, OTT:600:18)

TIC ... TIC ... TIC is a raptor warning signal issued by many passerines (song raptors) that there is some sort of danger around. When raptors make it, young raptors in nests go silent and all raptors in earshot enter a state of alertness. It works across most spieces, an alarm for one is an alarm for all. (@waveney, OTT:1864:4)

raptorcat : The creature (presumably a leopard or similar panthera-related species) first seen in frame 2188, so-named upon its attack in frame 2228.

My best cat reference gives the body length of leopards as "3 ft to 6 ft 4 in (91 to 190 cm)". I'd eyeball this one to be about .75-.8q, perhaps 4-4½ feet. For the moment, I'm going with leopard. (@jjjdavidson, OTT:888:12)   ⌇   Conundrum... we called it a molpy, but it clearly shows raptorish tendencies. Perhaps it should be a raptorcat? (@BlitzGirl, OTT:888:27)   ⌇   Oh, okay. :) For some reason I expected a leopardraptor to be bigger (or is that keyboardraptor?)...

raptorfly : Early name for beesnake, as seen in frame 1456.

RAZOR : Raptor And Zombie Observation and Relocation, a branch of the CIA. (also, R.A.Z.O.R.)

Ahh, my cover has been blown! Yes, I work for a top-secret branch of the CIA called Raptor And Zombie Observation and Relocation (RAZOR). Our motto is "Keeping the world safe from zombies, should we ever find any, and raptors, even though they aren't usually dangerous to humans." It's a terrible motto. I'm not sure who came up with it. Yes, it's a dangerous job, but someone has to do it. (@lmjb1964, OTT:731:3)

REDUNDANT : See RELATED.

reketchup : A ketchup (or ketchup-related post) that has been hindered by some mustard, e.g. the server or one's organised sand deciding to delete the text of a post.

Revealer the Recent : A title given to anyone who has been "lurking" for a while and "reveals" themselves by posting for the first time (see firstpost).

Shouldn't there be a title for delurking? Revealer the Recent? (Of course, that's all of us, but I don't see the problem in that.) (@SBN, OTT:1528:18)

Revelation : In the OTT's ecclesiastical calendar, a 28-dip period (one Orthodix OTTish mip) beginning on the Outsider dip called "the 15th of July".

rhethatm : unknown A word with indeterminate meaning, part of @ucim's language of the "raft people" used in Acts of the Clerics.

RTA : 1. Riverish Time Accessor (see Time Accessor)

If I didn't have psu mustard on my STA and boot sector mustard on my RTA, I'd be mean and change a pixel or two. Not happening on my MTA. (@HES, OTT:1966:32)

It does contain my STA (that's Seaish TimeAccessor; See also MTA and RTA) and therefore all my OTTifications, redundantly on a couple of drives. (@HES, OTT:1980:2)   ⌇   Oh, treeish! RTA is Riverish TimeAccessor, then? I thought that it would mean Standard TimeAccessor and Redundant TimeAccessor. Well, it's probably kind of the same. (@ZoomanSP, OTT:1980:4)

My STA (seaish) is stationary, my RTA (riverish) is slow, my WTA (or perhaps HFFSTA) belongs to the company and losing it would be unmolpish, and my MTA can entertain me well enough. (@HES, OTT:2220:4)

2. Roaming Time Accessor.

I was able to forward some of Pegasus1' ports from Sombrero, meaning my lapleopard can now serve over a MTA connection. / ... / 1 Current RTA3. Time Acessors are named after galaxies, except for our first one, which retains its factory designation. / ... / 3 Roaming Time Acessor, aka lapleopard. (@AluisioASG, OTT:2026:22)

3. Replying To Add.

Here is the sus_organizer again. / For the refunding process we need the topics for the conference. / Therefore we really should determine the list of speeches. / ... (@sus_organizer, OTT:2186:12)   ⌇   RTA: We need them now. / It's Time to follow the 3rd commandment. / ... / RTA: replying to add (@Sustainabilizer, OTT:2186:16)
