BLOING

About

Blo is a phrase used to playfully insult comments or groups on a forum in poor grammar on purpose. The word is “blow” misspelled. An example would be “fuk u lolololol, ur group blos.”

Origin

The game Age of Time was created by Eric “Badspot” Hartman who also created a fairly popular blocky sandbox game called Blockland. Abbreviated AoT, it is an action/rpg game created on the Torque Game Engine which is now not very popular and has not been updated since about 2007. It shares a portion of its forum with the popular Blockland forums where users now sometimes create joke topics. In the Clan Discussion section, a user named Acerblock created a humorous clan called TOSSMATAOTG that was imitating “overprotective urban soccer moms” who are against pornography and protect their children from NSFW content on the internet. At one point, user Ipquarx from another joke clan called SGFKSUWNSOA told his members to unite in a point in the topic.

Spread

Many users after that start using the “Blo” comment in their posts on the thread. The joke continued on for 6 pages and is still going on. Acerblock even changed the title to “I blo, you blo, he, she, me blo.” So far, no one has been banned and the phrase can occasionally be heard ingame.
