2006-09-27 [XxTsomexX]: ^_^' you ok frog?
2006-09-27 [peacefrog]: I'm fine. this conversation is hopeless.
2006-09-27 [XxTsomexX]: oh lol
2006-09-28 [Amarantha]: No kidding! *flourishes cape*
2006-09-28 [tyler likes to eat zebra cakes]: capes are cool...
2006-09-28 [peacefrog]: flourishes are cool. But only if you are just dramatic enough to pull them off, and not dramatic enough to be a theater major.
2006-09-28 [bungalowbill]: <hint>Also, when used in moderation.</hint>
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: lol
2006-09-28 [peacefrog]: Fleh. Moderation in moderation.
2006-09-28 [Sebhar]: This is true. My marching band finally got capes to go with our uniforms this year. Needless to say they're beyond fun.
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: lol
2006-09-28 [Sebhar]: ...how is that funny?
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: idk...
2006-09-28 [peacefrog]: She's playing mime again?
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: me?
2006-09-28 [peacefrog]: There was a bit there where you would make 0_0 faces and say "..."
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: ????
2006-09-28 [peacefrog]: Yes, that as well.
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: well... uh...
2006-09-28 [Hackworth]: No... no. Stop. Don't want to ruin the effect now, do you?
2006-09-28 [Amarantha]: I have two capes.
*watches interestedly for expressions of jealousy/disbe
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: ?
2006-09-28 [Sebhar]: *expression of jealousy/disbe
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: ?????
2006-09-28 [peacefrog]: This is like trying to talk to rabbits.
2006-09-28 [XxTsomexX]: im sorry TT_TT
2006-09-29 [Hackworth]: *eats lettuce*
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: ?? lettuce??
2006-09-29 [Hackworth]: Yes. Lettuce. Lactuca sativa. A nice Romaine, if you must know.
*returns to his ruminations*
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: ... interesting...
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: I had a smashing combination of Brussels sprouts and Cheerios for supper. Not that this has anything to do with the topic of this wiki, of course.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: ...
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: ...PF is right. You do kind of have rabbity qualities about your converastion. Please, if you're just going to use repeated punctuation as your comment, refrain from commenting until you have something to say.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: ok, fine, whatever, i just wont comment then...
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: I didn't mean that meanly, it was just a suggestion. You can still leave repeated punctuation as comments, I'm just going to start deleting them. I'm prejudiced toward people who use complete thoughts.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: i noticed
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: See! There! You've got it!
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: ? got what?
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: The idea of the complete thought! Or you had. "i noticed", while not correctly punctuated or capitalised, was a complete thought!
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: oh, ok...
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: So do you have any views on anything?
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: what do you mean by views?
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: Opinions.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: opinions about...?
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: Anything at all.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: well, i hate hypocrites (spelling?)
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: and i hate it when im one because then i just want to beat my head against a wall...
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: I actually think you spelled it right... but I could be wrong :S
I am one quite frequently, and then I have to apologise.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: yeah, thats why i hate it lol
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: I don't like apologising, or even admitting I'm wrong much.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: i apologise all the time, but thats because I am a klutz...
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: well for stuff like that, I do, but when I'm in an argument with someone... I apologise really quickly when I've misjudged someone, or something, though.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: yeah
2006-09-29 [Sebhar]: I mean, I had this big jock guy - large, muscular and hairy - in my Creative Writing class last year. It turned out he was really smart, really an amazing poet and such. I felt horrible for thinking he was a dumb jock.
2006-09-29 [XxTsomexX]: I hate that... people think i'm a pshyco when they first see me... but then if they get to know me, they think of me as one of the sweetest people on the earth... which is a bit freaky...
2006-10-01 [bungalowbill]: Okay, for the record: 'hypocrites apologize, psycho'
2006-10-01 [peacefrog]: You've got that wrong, anyway, you missed a comma: "hypocrites, apologize, psycho."
Otherwise it sounds like a sentence. Hypocrites may or may not apologize, and please don't call me a psycho.
2006-10-01 [Sebhar]: I always apologise.
2006-10-01 [peacefrog]: Which is entirely different than apologizing.
2006-10-01 [XxTsomexX]: Now I am confused.
2006-10-01 [peacefrog]: There's an "s" in one, see?
2006-10-02 [XxTsomexX]: What are you guys talking about?!
2006-10-02 [peacefrog]: Spelling.
2006-10-02 [Sebhar]: And intricacies thereof.
2006-10-02 [peacefrog]: Yes.
2006-10-02 [Sebhar]: Gotta love intricacies.
2006-10-02 [peacefrog]: Yes, but make sure you wash them on the delicate cycle.
2006-10-02 [XxTsomexX]: I don't know what those are.
2006-10-02 [Sebhar]: or hand wash.
2006-10-02 [peacefrog]: That transaction just made my day...
Anyway: http://www.ans
2006-10-02 [Amarantha]: Alack and alas. You guys will be the death of me! I can't stop laughing.
For the record, it's a good idea to do an extra rinse on those intricacies... you have to wash all those double meanings out.
2006-10-02 [Hackworth]: Oh, of course. Double meanings in your intricacies will raise all sorts of questions should your mother and or significant other find them... best to dispose of all the evidences that you'd participated in any sort of entendre - double or otherwise.
2006-10-02 [peacefrog]: Awesome.
2006-10-02 [bungalowbill]: Yeah, I did that on purpose. I like it as a sentence, psycho.
2006-10-02 [XxTsomexX]: I hate not knowing what is going on. Could you guys explain?
2006-10-02 [peacefrog]: Shut up, Will.
We're still discussing intricacies.
2006-10-02 [XxTsomexX]: And intricacies are?
2006-10-02 [Sebhar]: Well, they can be described as intricate... and fun to discuss.
2006-10-02 [XxTsomexX]: Interesting. I still don't know what they are.
2006-10-02 [peacefrog]: I think this counts as cruel and unusual punishment. But hey, I gave her a link, so torture away.
http://www.ans
2006-10-03 [Sebhar]: Heehee... links are enjoyable. As are intricacies.
2006-10-03 [Hackworth]: Especially other people's intricacies.
2006-10-03 [peacefrog]: Unless they're used, then that's just creepy.
2006-10-04 [Sebhar]: EEw, used intricacies! *fights the urge to vomit*
2006-10-04 [peacefrog]: Especially the cliches, that's the worst kind of used intricacy.
2006-10-04 [bungalowbill]: I hold to my earlier comment. You're all psychos.
2006-10-04 [XxTsomexX]: I know I am
2006-10-04 [peacefrog]: I enjoy it.
2006-10-04 [Sebhar]: If I wasn't psycho, life would be so much duller for those around me.
2006-10-04 [XxTsomexX]: Hey, will you guys please comment my drawings at Tsome-chan's Drawings!?
2006-10-05 [Sebhar]: SPAM! ...heehee
2006-10-06 [Amarantha]: I'm psychotic too! Me too! Really!
Three penguins are the equivalent of one soda. Two puffins equal one penguin. A side effect of penguins/puffi
2006-10-06 [Amarantha]: Is anyone here interested in the RPG cabbages, carriages and kitty-cats? We need more players. Things are slowing down since we lost Spadess.
2006-10-06 [Hackworth]: I'll play!
2006-10-09 [Elodicressida]: Cookies.
2006-10-09 [Sebhar]: ...moods?
2006-10-09 [Amarantha]: *grumoiness* Oh frabjous day, history notes.
That is my mood for the day. Or are you saying that we should speak more about our mood petition and less about intricacies?
2006-10-09 [Elodicressida]: 'Nothing was going right with the Wizards' Universi'
Two letters! Two letters!
2006-10-09 [Amarantha]: You misspelled Universe, o golden marsh flower.
2006-10-09 [Elodicressida]: That's 'cause it wasn't supposed to be 'uni
verse'. If you'll check the first sentence of the
appropriate book, you'll find it is spelled
'universi -', but without a longer mood, it indee
d appears to be a misspelling. Which it isn't! T
wo letters more...
2006-10-09 [XxTsomexX]: XD
2006-10-09 [peacefrog]: Mine was "argyle gargoyle" but I just changed it to "I am Jack's complete lack of surprise" bacause Chuck Pahlanuik is super rad. I've got to read the rest of that book.
I wildly assume that the book in question, [Elodicressida], was a Terry Pratchett?
2006-10-09 [Elodicressida]: No, but he's good. The book in question was Diana Wynne Jones's Year of the Griffin. A sequel; the first line of the first in that series, Will you all be quiet!, seems a little antisocial... DW Jones is great. Assassins and orange juice...
2006-10-09 [peacefrog]: Never heard of her, but it sounds like fantasy, and I lost the ability to read serious fantasy or science fiction some years ago. It was a sad day.
2006-10-09 [Elodicressida]: ...
I know someone like that... I don't understand one bit of it. Fantasy is wonderful.
2006-10-09 [peacefrog]: I can't do it. I cannot take any book seriously that's fantasy any more, unless it makes fun of itself. The same thing happened when I read Poe on my AP test a couple of years back. I was sitting there and giggling at "The Fall of The House of Usher" in the middle of the test. They just always seems so blown out of proportion and ridiculous to me. I think my english teacher did it to me.
2006-10-09 [Amarantha]: Well then, you'd love DWJ. She makes a lot of fun of traditional fantasy/scifi. I get what you are saying about those... they cannot take themselves seriously. I read Terry Brooks for laughs, all the ridiculous melodrama, so unintentionall
And of course you laughed at Poe! Who couldn't?
2006-10-09 [peacefrog]: I used to really like Terry Brooks. Like, a lot. No longer.
No one. He was a silly emo with a funny forehead. I'm glad you understand.
2006-10-09 [bungalowbill]: I think I still like Brooks. But Shannara has gotten way silly.
2006-10-09 [Elodicressida]: Ah, Shannara... I read that when I want to laugh. The really funny thing is that he doesn't intend to be funny...
2006-10-10 [Sebhar]: I read scifi and fantasy because I feed off disturbingly long descriptions of things. o.O
2006-10-10 [peacefrog]: That's an interesting problem. Have they named a disorder after you yet?
2006-10-10 [Amarantha]: Have you tried the Riddlemaster trilogy by Patricia McKillip for disturbingly long descriptions? (Though I don't feel they are, I have been informed that I am certifiable to Bedlam for CHOOSING to read descriptive books.)
2006-10-10 [Hackworth]: The Riddlemaster trilogy was horrible to get through because it seemed to consist of all long descriptions and no plot to hold them together. All rice krispies, and no marshmallows.
Patricia A. McKillip's other books, of course, are amazing. It seems she learned how to tell a story, at some point, and still hold onto her beautifully crafted descriptions of things.
2006-10-10 [Amarantha]: Hey! I disagree with that. Obviously the rest of them are brilliant, but I submit the petition that Riddlemaster trilogy join the good books section.
Though actually, I wasn't much for Winter Rose out of all her books, and The Tower at Stony Wood didn't overawe me like The Forgotten Beasts of Eld and The Changeling Sea did.
2006-10-10 [Hackworth]: Oh no... don't misunderstand. I loved the Riddlemaster Trillogy. It was just harder than usual for me to get through, is all.
Alphabet of Thorn is one of my favourite books, as is Od Magic. The Forgotten Beasts of Eld was amazing, too... have you read Ombria in Shadow?
2006-10-10 [Elodicressida]: Ammy just likes her books 'cause they have pretty covers...
2006-10-10 [XxTsomexX]: Books are coool ^_^ i love to read
2006-10-10 [Sebhar]: I was reading through those going... what have I read by her? It's Ombria in Shadow... one of my favourite books ever, and as you mentioned the cover is SO GORGEOUS.
2006-10-11 [Amarantha]: They do have pretty covers... *sigh*
I haven't read Ombria in Shadow yet... I was going to buy that one or Alphabet of Thorn but went for a cheap Edith Pattou "Fire Arrow" instead. Ah the travails of a cheap student. I just read Od Magic - that was great! It was marvelous! So pretty. I'm using the word pretty too much. Bed time for Amara.
2006-10-11 [peacefrog]: That's why I like to use libraries. Cheaposity.
2006-10-11 [Amarantha]: Yeah... I move across the country, away from one bad library, and end up with another! I must have been cursed. Or done something vile in a past life. Or maybe Fate hates me. To deny a girl a dream library her entire life... it is a punishment too horrific to be considered.
2006-10-11 [peacefrog]: Ours used to be a house. A tiny house.
2006-10-11 [Elodicressida]: Aw, geroff it, Ammy. Two libraries is neither a curse nor bad karma. (You Mahabharata watcher, you... it's contagious) It means the gods hate you.
2006-10-12 [Sebhar]: Our library is a Carnegie library... this really nice brick building. It also gets whatever books you request in two weeks, tops.
2006-10-12 [Elodicressida]: Awww.... *kidnaps library*
2006-10-12 [peacefrog]: There's the school library, but there's almost no fiction.
2006-10-12 [Hackworth]: I live in upper-middle class suburbia, so out library is unusually huge. Filled to the brim with Stephen King and 500 copies of the DaVinci Code, of course, but huge.
Then again, I work next door to a bookstore. The convenience with which I spend my hard earned monies is heartbreaking.
2006-10-12 [peacefrog]: You sound all trapped and stuff...don't let them get you, man.
2006-10-12 [Hackworth]: If I had the money time and energy, and I'd drive down to the denver library once a week, and borrow thier books. But I lack all three at the moment, and in consequence am confined to my own miserable books-that-I'v
2006-10-12 [Amarantha]: Don't you hate the miserable only-books-I'v
2006-10-18 [Sebhar]: I love the classics! ..and what's wrong with Stephen King?
2006-10-18 [XxTsomexX]: I love Stephen King. His books are just amazing!
2006-10-18 [Sebhar]: I'm almost done with Wizard and Glass... I WILL GET THROUGH THE DARK TOWER SERIES!
2006-10-18 [Sebhar]: ...by the way... everyone should click on the link in my mood... because Paul looks amazing in toilet paper.
2006-10-18 [peacefrog]: You and your spammy ways.
2006-10-18 [Hackworth]: There's nothing wrong with Stephen King OR the Classics!
I'd just like to read something, you know... less of those. For once. Maybe a good cyberpunk novella or anthology of stories based on the works of Lewis Carrol. Or even just a good trashy romance. Geez.
2006-10-18 [peacefrog]: You know what? You should read some Chuck Palahnuik. I've always spell his last name wrong so far, I should warn you...
2006-10-18 [Hackworth]: I've been told that many many times... and this time I think I'll take the advice. Right. As soon as I have some time.
2006-10-19 [Sebhar]: The book I've loved the most recently (Other than Dark Tower IV, which I finished today and cried during) was the Realm of Possibility by David Levithan. It's freaking interesting!
2006-10-19 [Amarantha]: OOH I just finished Alphabet of Thorn and it was AMAZING!
Try reading the Count of Monte Cristo sometime. Really.
2006-10-19 [Hackworth]: It's damned good. Dumas has a great style, even if a lot of it is just really good translation work from the original French.
My personal favourite of his is probably Le Chevalier de Maison-Rouge.
2006-10-19 [peacefrog]: That doesn't sound like taking my advice...but I will pretend it is, and feel special.
2006-10-20 [Amarantha]: I haven't read that yet, but I have to agree with you about the Count! It's a marvel, how many things he put in there, and so engrossing even though it qualifies as the literary equivalent of a sesquipedalian
Just read Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card - it's okay. And reread The Changeling Sea by McKillip, which I think may be my favorite.
2006-10-23 [Sebhar]: I'm still working my way through Stephen King's Dark Tower series.
2006-10-26 [Amarantha]: HUm. What's that about? I've not read any Stephen king.
2006-10-26 [XxTsomexX]: Really?!
2006-10-26 [Elodicressida]: Really really. Me neither, though I vaguely remember watching the Green Mile.
2006-10-26 [Hackworth]: King is okay... his stuff has never actually scared me, though. Creeped me out? Sure. Scared me? No. It's much more suspenseful and thought-provok
That said, if you're going to read ANYTHING by him, read The Stand.
2006-10-26 [Araglas]: Why The Stand?
2006-10-26 [Hackworth]: Because it's freaking good.
2006-10-27 [Elodicressida]: What's it about?
2006-10-27 [Hackworth]: A plague that kills off about 99.9% of the population, and how the survivors survive. The 'good ones' go to Boulder, CO and the baddies rally in Las Vegas. It's a good survival novel, with a bit of fantasy thrown in.
2006-10-27 [peacefrog]: Hey, my mommy read that one.
2006-10-27 [Amarantha]: My mum said she really liked that one and I should read it. Haven't yet, but might.
2006-10-27 [KnightAngel]: I've only seen the serie, which I only assume is quite close to the story of the book, assume because I know how much filmpeople can twist such a story <.<
2006-10-27 [Amarantha]: Note Howl's Moving Castle (grr)
2006-10-27 [Elodicressida]: Or Ella Enchanted, which isn't even a good movie when you haven't read the book. Or maybe I'm just biased because I have read the book.
2006-10-27 [peacefrog]: The book was awesome. The movie made me want to die slowly.
2006-10-27 [Elodicressida]: I know the feeling... except the want is rather left out of the matter.
2006-10-28 [peacefrog]: Well, now, I didn't actually die. Which is unfourtunate.
2006-10-28 [Elodicressida]: It comes so close... but enough agonizing over the thoughtless slaughter of a wonderful book. Has anyone read Fahrenheit 451?
2006-10-28 [peacefrog]: No. I never saw the movie, either. There was a movie, right?
2006-10-28 [KnightAngel]: No I am afraid not, I am not sure it is over here in denmark... Perhaps but yeah... Either don't have the money to buy it or well to be frank the desire.... My interrest in books mainly goes for fantasy.. Narrowminded I know but it helps me escape reality and brings amusement to read the stories ^^'
2006-10-28 [Elodicressida]: That's exactly what I wanted to get into. The special effects just blow you away, lol...
2006-10-28 [KnightAngel]: Don't know about that peacefrog <.<
2006-10-28 [peacefrog]: I am now lost.
2006-10-28 [KnightAngel]: Hehe sorry, I was answering Elodicressida, then found after having typed and entered my comment that you also had written so wanted to add a answer to your question as well ^^'
2006-10-28 [Elodicressida]: I see... but there was a movie. Heehee. There's one chase scene that's absolutely hillarious.
2006-10-28 [Amarantha]: Ella enchanted death! Ella Enchanted death! Awful, terrible, and that dance scene with the giants - may I die please?
I read Fahrenheit 451! Me! I did! I take it you watched the chase scene in class?
Speaking of chase scenes, anyone watched 'Casanova'? I love that movie!
2006-10-28 [Elodicressida]: Yep... the police, you see, have jetpacks and fly around looking for Montag. Only the movie was made in 1965, and they didn't have jetpacks, so they made little dolls and hung them on strings and towed them across the scene. ^.^
Oh, and I remember Casanova. That was fun.
2006-10-28 [Hackworth]: They're actually making an BRAND SHINY NEW Fahrenheit 451. I think.
Or maybe I'm lying, as Wikipedia doesn't know anything about it. huh. I'll have to do more research.
2006-10-28 [peacefrog]: I think I understand now. You're all crazy people.
2006-10-28 [KnightAngel]: *nods* Surely ^^'
2006-10-28 [Elodicressida]: I believe they are. My humanities class sure thinks so. And Mel Gibson has some sort of option rights or something...
2006-10-28 [peacefrog]: AH! Mel Gibson! Noooo!
2006-10-29 [Amarantha]: Crazy? Me?! Of all people... Nevah. Well, maybe a bit...
2006-10-29 [Elodicressida]: A BIT? Ammy, you've been on the far side of batty for years.
2006-10-29 [Amarantha]: *bows*
2006-10-29 [XxTsomexX]: ?
2006-10-29 [Amarantha]: Hey Tsome! Want to join Cabbages, Carriages and Kitty-cats?
2006-10-29 [XxTsomexX]: Sure...
2006-10-29 [Amarantha]: Thank you! We really need more RPers... there's only the three of us. And BTW, the address is accurate now.
2006-10-31 [KnightAngel]: *blinks* Could I join as well? o.o
2006-11-01 [Amarantha]: Yeah! Please!
2006-11-01 [peacefrog]: *sigh*
2006-11-01 [KnightAngel]: *smiles* Okay ^^' I'll send my character a little later, going to town right now
2006-11-02 [peacefrog]: Because this has gotten fantastically out of hand...and lost all purpose.
2006-11-02 [Elodicressida]: But that's the beauty of it! But if you really want us to get on topic...
We need longer moods so we can sing the Muffin Man song in them.
2006-11-02 [Amarantha]: *looks sheepish* Sorry...
We need longer moods! It is a truth universally acknowledged!
2006-11-02 [peacefrog]: I actually don't really care that much, as it was kind of a whim, and nothing seems to be happening...I'
You know, I think Myspace has an unlimited mood now, I fit "He was either a lunatic or a holy man. It wasn't always possible to tell the difference." I suppose we could bring that up in the suggestions.
But really, I'm happy with what I've got...not perfect, but the people in charge here seem to be assholes to the last, so I don't really see the point in arguing as they know they're right.
2006-11-03 [Elodicressida]: Does that mean we can get back to pointless conversation? No, no, singing the Muffin Man elsewhere...
2006-11-03 [peacefrog]: Please feel free.
2006-11-03 [Elodicressida]:
Do you know the Muffin Man,
The Muffin Man
The Muffin Man
Do you know the Muffin Man,
Who lives on Drury Lane?
2006-11-04 [Amarantha]: I thought you said you were singing it elsewhere! Really, you're quite as bad as K, who wouldn't stop singing "Bingo" during lunch today, and Z and I had to try to drown her out with the Canterbury Prologue. It's hard to drown her out.
2006-11-04 [Elodicressida]: Ya... I can imagine K having good lungs. And you're right, I am singing it elsewhere, but - oh, well, maybe something else here. Shall I sing... K's favorite song? *cackles* No, I'm not that mean.
Eagles fly high, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
2006-11-04 [Amarantha]: Thank you! Ban Veggie Tales! And that other one!
2006-11-04 [Elodicressida]: NOOOOOO! Don't SAY it! Don't say it, because K is omnipresent and will hear and send a murmur to follow you perpetually and SING it!
