#REDIRECT[[List of Memes#McSquiggly]]
'''McSquiggly''' is a phenomenon on the forums started by [[Bryce Storey]]. All instances of the word "and" on the OCESS forum were for a substantial period of time known to be replaced by the words "and McSquiggly and". This was done by using the "bad words" filter, which takes any word and replaces it with, usually, hilarious alternatives. As far as anyone can tell, Cmdr. Storey did this initially to see how long it would take someone to post something on the forums asking about what was going on. The first person to do this was [[Ian Martin]], and the time between McSquiggly's initiation and his posting about it is estimated to have been about 2 months. Other executives such as [[Ben Paul]] and [[Maclean Rouble]] knew about it at the time but refused to change it for their own entertainment.
