He's a western character in comics. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonah_Hex

I agree it's most adorable... It would make such a great plushie...

Re: Perenelle's Pleasantly Playful and Passionately Peculiar Random Banter #133
The knitting instructions for an adorable Cthulhu plushie exist. . .but I've only seen them in Finnish. While he who linked them to me may have a perfect grasp of the English required for squamous weirdness, his vocabulary did not extend to 'knit', 'purl', and 'cast off'. Maybe someone else has found and translated them by now.

My husband was called in early to work because the early shift worker is stranded by floodwaters. Today has finally dawned with sun, after a storm-lashed week, but the rivers are still draining.
The great irony of this is the local outdoor-goods store for adventurous sports, the one which sells small boats, is on the river's bank and probably inaccessible, right next to. . .oh gods, my favorite bookstore!

I had a dream where five headed vultures at a demon market could kill by Beatles Songs.
Normally, they had to sing the songs themselves, but because there was a group of them kept in containment their powers were uniting and they were pulling tricks like Beatles Ring Tones, or playing them over the store tannoy system.
Normally people dream about falling off buildings and stuff when they say they die in their dreams.
...I die by vultures who sing the Beatles.

Re: Perenelle's Pleasantly Playful and Passionately Peculiar Random Banter #133
That is an odd way to die.
Demonic Five-headed vultures, you say?
Any relation to Tiamat?

Good thing they're water tight then. :smalleek: Then again, I'd much prefer to know you were not submerged.

Re: Perenelle's Pleasantly Playful and Passionately Peculiar Random Banter #133
Not a chance. I live on a valleyside. A very steep, very wide valleyside. If my house is flooded, then the fish on the steeple of St. Anne's will be swimming.

Re: Perenelle's Pleasantly Playful and Passionately Peculiar Random Banter #133
Floods are too much rain. Rain should be during dusk, light, and in the suburbs. That is good rain.
-
Re: Perenelle's Pleasantly Playful and Passionately Peculiar Random Banter #133
Also vertical, which the rain yesterday was not.
This was one of the main downtown shopping areas at daybreak. I've just come back from it, and it's now reduced to two giant lakes with a ribbon of road between, and the shops on either side have a bit of dry sidewalk to put their trash (and soaked carpets) out.
My favorite bookstore is fine. Other bookstores on other branches of the river are less fine. There's rolling water disruptions for my side of the city since the water treatment plant flooded. . .lots of tea in the immediate future, hurrah for boiled drinks.

I've been awake since three o' clock this morning.
This has been happening roughly every two weeks. What the heck, internal clock?

Re: Perenelle's Pleasantly Playful and Passionately Peculiar Random Banter #133
Any idea what's got you waking up and what prevents you from returning once more to slumber?

Nope. Just general wakefulness.

Re: Perenelle's Pleasantly Playful and Passionately Peculiar Random Banter #133
Well, it is good it is relatively rare yet. Sometimes that happens to me but thankfully rarely. And not for a fair while....
I can't really recommend anything more than try to have something on hand to be constructive-ish with. :/

Too much time in the shipping thread has obviously inured you :smalltongue:
And I support Koorilithulu avatars. It's the only logical course of action.

Not so much injured but immunised. Besides, I started it, both the Shipping Thread and the writing of Koorilithulu/Rabbithulu pairings and mythos.

Very good! I bought it at a fair for 10 euros at a bookstand....Ok, I'l be honest. It was the Tolkien shop.
But this is (very) different from Tolkiens style.
It's pretty much 730 pages of awesome, there was not one moment where I was bored or were tempted to skip pages or something like that.
The characters are simply marvelous and leave you wanting to read on.

Yes. Don't know how much you normally read, but it might be a bit long for ''normal'' people at around 730 pages.

Hey! Don't mock horizontal rain! It has the right to exist!
(also, I just like to see ordinary people whine and futilely try to resist the horizontal assault while I gladly get wet and laugh at them)

Reminds me of Hard Rain from Left 4 Dead 2. I love that game. Physically.

Why does Cracked.com hire any writers other than DOB and Michael Swaim? (I guess Brockway and Bulchoz are fine.)

I don't think a sanitarium is necessary for what the men are being brought in for, unless it involves Cthulu or any variant of it.
