By the way, it is worth noting that the families in GitP are... confusing. For example, I have a sister, who has a half-brother, who has a daughter, who has a sister who is also my sister.

Seriously, we make soap operas look sane.

I suppose then that now would be a bad time to tell you that I'm actually your long-lost twin half brother twice removed from your father's side?

Nah, we're semi-divine and as such age and incest are of no object. Just like them thar there Greeky-thangs...

Damn, Dad must have gotten around...

...Who is our father?

[Cristo Meyers]

Damn, Dad must have gotten around...

...Who is our father?

I have no idea. We never got that far.

[The Rose Dragon]

Damn, Dad must have gotten around...

...Who is our father?

Well, my mother is 'larra. And dish. Who is also my sister. And daughter.

I think I was born out of two females. Doesn't quite explain how that Y allosome spawned.

[Coidzor]

I have no idea. We never got that far.

The Giant? Maybe? I'm not too sure myself. I'm fairly sure that a couple of us sprang fully formed out of the seafoam...

^: Well, Haephestus or whatever his name was... He was purportedly made by Hera by herself out of jealousy for Zeus making Athena by himself in a couple of myths...

[The Rose Dragon]

The Giant? Maybe? I'm not too sure myself. I'm fairly sure that a couple of us sprang fully formed out of the seafoam...

And some of us were formed from the testicle of a titan.

You know, there are very few left that can realize that is a compliment.

[Cristo Meyers]

Who I'm sure, if he ever actually read this, would roll his eyes and say "Oh god, now they're bringing me into their wierd games!"

[The Rose Dragon]

Remember kids: weird is spelled weird. Wierd is not a word.

[randman22222]

All I know is that I, along with hundreds of thousands of other nude babies arranged in a square grid, come from the expanse. A grey room so large that the walls cannot be seen. Only feeding apparatus above each of us hanging from the ceiling was visible.

[anazopyreo]

Remember kids: weird is spelled weird. Wierd is not a word.

One time someone spelled Weird Al's name as Wierd Al and he started calling himself Wired Al.

[Cristo Meyers]

Remember kids: weird is spelled weird. Wierd is not a word.

oh shush. Was the meaning obsfucated in any way shape or form by my transposition of the "i" and "e"? No?

Yeah, didn't think so.

Oh graet, I'll jsut srtat ramdnloy msipalcing leettrs tehn.

You can read it, but it still hurts the eye.

Incidentally, obfuscated.

And this little exchange has done what other than scream "I am a pedant?"

If you want to be a pedant, fine, but do us all a favor and keep it to yourself.

[TwoBitWriter]

Hey, I'm the only one here who can take cheap stabs at Cristo...

*takes cheap stab at Cristo*

*Tasers Twoby.*

You know what I do to those who initiate random violence.
Ow. I just hurt my teeth by biting too hard.

...Don't look at me like that.

[Coidzor]

^: Well, I once bit my tongue while talking...

If you want to be a pedant, fine, but do us all a favor and keep it to yourself.

Or do us a favor and teach this nation's children. Rather than get everyone riled up about... I don't even know anymore.

In any event, we need more teachers so that statistically we can more easily cull a larger number of good teachers when we have the teacher apocalypse.

V: Yes. And if they bite you....

[Cristo Meyers]

^: Well, I once bit my tongue while talking...

Last time I did that there was a sore spot for about a week. Not fun.

In any event, we need more teachers so that statistically we can more easily cull a larger number of good teachers when we have the teacher apocalypse.

'Zat like the Zombie Apocalypse? Except with roaming packs of zombies we have to battle roving packs of angry math teachers?

[The Rose Dragon]

Or do us a favor and teach this nation's children. Rather than get everyone riled up about... I don't even know anymore.

First I need to, you know, get to that country you're talking about. Because I'm pretty sure you're not talking about mine.

[Coidzor]

I don't really care, teacher apocalypse will be universal. All will tremble before their ferocity... Also, nomming will occur.

[Recaiden]

I suppose then that now would be a bad time to tell you that I'm actually your long-lost twin half brother twice removed from your father's side?

So does that make you my negative first cousin, once removed?

It won't be math teachers. Mostly languages.

[Pyrian]

Hey, I'm the only one here who can take cheap stabs at Cristo...

*takes cheap stab at Cristo*

When I read this I seriously expected it to involve someone I knew - here, or somewhere.

[anazopyreo]

All I can say is wow. Also, I didn't know sword fights still happened...

[Fredthefighter]

All I can say is wow. Also, I didn't know sword fights still happened...

Neither can I. I knew there were still swords about, but I didn't think anyone used them anymore.

On another note, hey everybody, how are you all today?

[Thufir]

Pretty good. Disappointed that plans whereby I would've seen some friends this evening fell through, but it's been a decent enough day all the same.
Got some writing done. Trying to convince myself to do some more.

Well, the best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men gang aft a-gley.
What are you writing?

Big fic for the Shipping Thread. Specifically, the one intended as an 18th birthday present for Curly only I didn't get my ideas together until the day of her birthday and it ended up a lot bigger than I expected.
So, yes, it's gang agley by a fairly considerable margin.

[anazopyreo]

What does that mean? (I can't believe it won't let me just say "what"...)

Ah, well, good luck Thufir. I'd say something quite cliché and maybe even spiritualistic here, but I can't think of anything.
