Rutskarn's Roly-Poly Rebellious and Rejected Random Banter #110

[unstattedCommoner]

And I would laugh if only I could get it. Not a physics guy myself... please dont chase me with pitchforks.

Hopfully this was not a pun.

[Player_Zero]

A dozen, a gross and a score,
Plus three times the square root of four,
Divided by seven,
Plus five times eleven,
Equals nine squared and not a bit more.

A limerick I found on the interweb searching for maths jokes.

And while I'm at limericks, there's always the ol':

A mosquito was heard to complain,
That a chemist had poisoned his brain.
The cause of his sorrow
Was paradichloro-
Diphenyltrichloroethane.

[Neko Toast]

Just woke up 15 minutes ago. Still slightly tired.

@P_Z: I like the feedback, except for saying she has a silly name. I like it...

Plus, constellation (though technically her name is a galaxy) names are going to be a trend in the story later on.

[Mr. Mud]

Slayer, I woke up 10 minutes ago and I'm an hour in front of you . Mud Win.

[Neko Toast]

Slayer, I woke up 10 minutes ago and I'm an hour in front of you . Mud Win.

Well, uh... your... face, is an hour in front of you. What do you say to that?!

@\/ Of course it was a fail. You don't think I would make a comeback this lame unintentionally, do you?

[randman22222]

Well, uh... your... face, is an hour in front of you. What do you say to that?!

I'm not in this conversation, but I say: FAIL.

@^: Sorry, I have a little brother who thinks comebacks like those are the pinnacle of humanity.

So you like the bit where I said I liked it, huh?

Also, the name is sci-fi-y.

[Mr. Mud]

Well, uh... your... face, is an hour in front of you. What do you say to that?!

@\/ Of course it was a fail. You don't think I would make a comeback this lame unintentionally, do you?

Regardless, my face would still be two hours in front of you. .

[Player_Zero]

Scrabble anyone? I'll be in da room...

[Fredthefighter]

I live in England, woke up at 10:15am, found out that we were going shopping through my Mom shouting at me to get up. When we got back I had to wash both cars, but whenever I did something that she wasn't completely happy with, she took over and I ended up standing there for the last half an hour while she and my sister washed the cars. I was bored to say the least.

[Lyesmith]

Man, I just spent most of the morning asleep on the sofa, and then read for the rest of the day.

Now I'm reading Gaiman, and watching Buffy bloopers.

[Mr. Mud]

Okay more forum issues... it is now logging me off after a few minutes of inactivity? Maybe someone is manually logging on my account from somewhere else and logging me off... . Odd.

[Fredthefighter]

Well that used to happen to me (But it was usually like 30mins of inactivity) until I turned on the always stay logged on function.

[Lyesmith]

Ah, always stay logged on, how wonderful you are.
I think I might have forgotten my password on the playground by now, but it don't matter none.

[randman22222]

Until you clear cookies...

[Rutskarn]

Regarding the story, Draco:

So far, it's flowed very well for me. The writing style manages to be descriptive, but doesn't bog the story down.

It's probable that this isn't my kind of story. I'm not really a huge fan of werewolves or vampires as they're usually portrayed, and this kind of goes along with that. Still, that's my hangup, and has nothing to do with whether the story is any good or not.

Sorry this took so long.

[Lyesmith]

Until you clear cookies...

BLASPHEMY!
Burn the Heretic!

I have no problems here at home, but the computers of the U seems to log me off every 10 or so minutes of inactivity

[Mr. Mud]

Yeah same here, but I think the server doesn't like the background programs I'm running, 'cause it's all sorted out now

[CurlyKitGirl]

I actually understood all those physics jokes. Laughed at all of them. Ah, geekery is lovely.

I've also noticed that for lots of Playgrounders their nicknames are steadily becoming more complex:

Dragonrider
Drider/DRider (long - standing)
DeeRee
Dri
And many odd ones like Gun

TwoBitWriter
TwoBit
TwoBi/TwoBee
Tooby
Daddy Tooby

CurlyKitGirl
CKG
Curly
Koorly
Ko(with umlauts)rly
Koorli

Rutskarn
Ruts
Rusty
Rusty Carnage
Serveral others.
No Carny though.

Today's been fun. Spent four hours reading books in shops, well bits of books, but I still remember where I am in all of them and then I decided to walk the whole way home.
Walking at my absolute slowest I could tolerate, stopping for ten minutes to have a read and pausing every now and then to drink or stare at the gigantic cloud bank over the bay . . . and it still took me thirty five minutes to get within quarter a mile of home. So I went to even longer way home.
Got home at five to five.
Let me recount: stopping at a bakers' for snack and drink, and then slow walking and it took thirty five minutes to get home.
Curses. I don't count those last twenty minutes as I took the most roundabout route I could. And spent ten minutes sitting on a bench waiting for my normal Saturday bus home to go past where I was so I could start moving again.

[Assassin89]

There are no wizards in Harry Potter, only sorcerers. There are no such things as pure blood wizards because the magical power of a wizard is not inherent, but learned.

Don't forget Draggers. That's my go-to.

[randman22222]

I'm somewhat glad it's not easy to make nicknames out of mine.

[Coplantor]

EDIT: Whoa! Triple ninja'd

I think it was you who told me to read pratchet, well, it seems that local libraries have no pratchet books. I will have to buy them through my old friend, the internet. Then again, I only asked in two places.

[Rutskarn]

I'm somewhat glad it's not easy to make nicknames out of mine.

Don't write a book on that one, Randy.

(Man, I hope you're not British...)

[randman22222]

Don't write a book on that one, Randy.

(Man, I hope you're not British...)

Err, I'm not.
Some joke I'm missing?

[Skippy]

Hey look! A new RB thread that I hadn't seen! You guys are fast indeed.

I bought a new cell phone this week. It's nice, and I finally have a camera, so you can probably expect some new photos for the You thread someday soon!

What else? My current crush told me she has a boyfriend just before I told her I liked her. So she spared me from the shame and from being rejected. Ah well.

Apart from that, there's nothing else going on. Apart from finally watching Avatar till the end. It was awesome.

[Fredthefighter]

Don't worry my friend, I'm British and even I don't get it.
So how are you.... randy? HAHAHAHA!

[Rutskarn]

Perhaps the slang's phased out, but last I checked, "randy" was--in some areas of Britain, mind, not all of them--slang for "horny".

Yeah.

[Fredthefighter]

Oh yes it does mean horny, but that just makes your comment, in the proverbial sense, "Toilet" humour, like when 5 year olds laugh when you say poopy.
Now Rutskarn, I believe you owe randy an apology for this.
