Yup, those are the ones!  :)

I've always enjoyed them.  Adds in a bit of humour to keep things lighthearted.  Was one thing I kind of missed when getting back into the scene.

I'm not sure what aBSINTHE is.

g00r00 did a good job implementing it on Mystic.  I always liked the way IceEdit did it back in the day & Mystic's approach is similar but better. 

Search actually works if you wanted to look for a specific tagline & there's also a global database of taglines available for all users, as well as a database for each individual user, if they wanted to copy from the global or add in their own.  Also, if you didn't want to manually select one each time you write a message, one can be randomly selected and added to your message automatically.
