Coid's Crowing Conundrum of a Canticle of Crookedly Random Banter #185

[Teddy]

From what I've seen of your art, I bet you'll do (and have been doing) great in that class

Did, and not quite. It was... 3? 4? ...years since I was in it, and I've developed quite a bit ever since. Back then, I was okay at it. Not terrible, but certainly not in the top either.

No, I have other business regarding it now. But with all likelyhood, my business will have to move out to its own premises. And I'll have to figure out a way to get my hands on the right tools. Will have to ask when I go and check out my stuff...

[Heliomance]

I think we have, in order of tactical depth: Pokemon < Yu-Gi-Oh < M: tG

< Legend of the Five Rings.

Seriously, L5R is pretty damn good, and runs of a very different base mechanic.

[Mynxae]

Been 19 years old for nearly 3 hours and I don't feel the slightest bit special. Not even really expecting any presents.

Aaah, ok. Good luck!

Sounds like a good time to go to sleep, then. No birthdays become any better from lack of sleep.
...
Although I do suppose they could become more productive... Stupid electronics...

I would congratulate you, but it's not your birthday in my time zone yet, so it'll have to wait another few hours for it.

I can't sleep, otherwise I wouldn't've posted that

Meanie..

Alright, who sent me a hot nice guy with abs for my birthday? Who?! One is talking to me and thinks I'm cute! Like, um, wow.

[Amidus Drexel]

Happy birthday! I give you a present of song. Be forewarned; it is relaxing, but very long.

Eh, I know the feeling. The best presents are food and drink, though. You can enjoy them immediately, and they don't clutter up your room later!

I would congratulate you, but it's not your birthday in my time zone yet, so it'll have to wait another few hours for it.

Heh, it's another twelve hours here.

What kind of arts class, or what I'm up to? Well, to answer the former, mostly graphical art, but with room for other diciplines (such as sculpturing, for example) as well.

And to sum up my thoughts: "The old world is gone!"

Either, really.

Cool! Why did the prof leave?

Seriously, L5R is pretty damn good, and runs of a very different base mechanic.

I'll have to take a look at it.

"Yes Amidus, you really need another hobby."
"Shut up, other voice."

Alright, who sent me a hot nice guy with abs for my birthday? Who?! One is talking to me and thinks I'm cute! Like, um, wow.

Well, I know it wasn't me...

Sounds like a happy birthday indeed.

Does that song actually change in the hour it plays for? So far it's nice and relaxing.. Might help with my headache.

I think my Dad might be getting me something.. And my scummy ex got me something and is giving it to me tomorrow when he comes to pick up his crap.

Well, I know it wasn't me...

Sounds like a happy birthday indeed.

He's throwing out pictures and compliments like.. like candy..

[Teddy]

I can't sleep, otherwise I wouldn't've posted that

I know the feeling from my 20th birthday, except it was the night after, not the one leading up to it. Given, it was a rather productive night, it was just that I was completely gone in the head afterwards.

Cool! Why did the prof leave?

Not really a professor, since we're talking high school level education when we go so far back along my line. And I have no idea, since I haven't had the opportunity to ask anyone yet. Either she's on a leave of absence or she's moved on to a new job...

THE BATTLE HYMN OF MORDOR
Words by Mattias Wohlen.
Tune 'When Johnny comes Marching Home' (trad.).

Goblins, orcs and trolls we are, hoorah, hoorah
No end of us the World can see, hoorah, hoorah
We slay, we kill, that's our goodwill
No matter how cruel, it's all a thrill
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

From Mordor we are coming back, hoorah, hoorah
To burn, destroy, to slay, and sack, hoorah, hoorah
We butcher and cut, we rip your guts
We rape your daughters and burn your huts
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

The land of Rohan we will raze, hoorah, hoorah
Their stable homes we'll set ablaze, hoorah, hoorah
We slay of course both man and horse
We've yet to learn the word remorse
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

The dwarves will dance and do a skip, hoorah, hoorah
Before the Balrog's slashing whip, hoorah, hoorah
A merry day, the balrog will flay
Every beard and limb away
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

Lórien fairest forest is, hoorah, hoorah
We burn it all, it is amiss, hoorah, hoorah
We slay the elves, amuse ourselves,
They'll find no maid among themselves
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

Come here my hobbit, do not flee, hoorah, hoorah
Come back, come back, come play with me, hoorah, hoorah
The hobbits char in fresh hot tar,
The cooking smell will spread afar
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

The wizards try to us repel, hoorah, hoorah
We kill, we send them down to hell, hoorah, hoorah
We win the west, we are the best
We kill you all with jolly zest
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

The king of Gondor soon will die, hoorah, hoorah
When his homes in cinders lie, hoorah, hoorah
The West is gone, the World is won,
The whole of bloody creation undone
We kill, kill, kill, kill, we are the Dark Lord's host.

It's Grindr, isn't that kind of the point?

Well, my high school chemistry teacher was a technically a professor (she also taught chemistry at a college). She didn't like to be called that, though (something that never stopped a few of us ). I just sort of assume college unless someone says high school anymore.

Ah, okay.

My chemistry teacher back then was as well, but we called her Emma. I liked her.

And since I am studying at the university, it wasn't that bad of an assumption. I just wasn't doing it 4 years ago.

[Mynxae]

Guess what guys? That guy I mentioned? I have a date with him tonight. (as in Saturday night) I'm just kinda in shock. He's hot and cute, has abs, a cute smile and eyes, is really nice and sweet, is taking me out to dinner (splitting the bill I think) and is buying me a bottle of alcohol for my birthday. Then I'm taking him home.. Heh.

THIS IS THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER! If it wasn't for Socratov who encouraged booty calls/one night stands, I probably wouldn't have had the courage! *raises glass of Jack Daniels and coke to Socratov*

[LaZodiac]

Happy birthday Mynxy!

A quarter past 5 in the morning and you still haven't gotten any sleep? How do you intend to stay awake for your date if you insist on staying awake now?

[Mynxae]

/chuckles I'm about to go to bed. And I'll be getting a few hours of sleep, so I'll be fine.

All of my high school teachers except the ones in administrative positions were also professors (not that the distinction mattered because in spanish the word for both is one). About half of my classmates are fated to eventually be reinstructed by them, which I find sweetly ironic for a number of them.

Happy birthday!

I'm going to pretend sex in non-abstract text terms doesn't disgust me and say "congrats. Have fun "

[MoonCat]

Were you aware that there's multiple endings?

Yes, and I saw all three.

Heh, that's a funny movie.

"One, two dead bodies. Okay, everything's normal."

Three murders. Things are getting serious.

But...it's not a scary movie. It's hilarious. It has Tim Curry!

Unless you mean that's going to keep you up all night, of course

Tim Curry is not in the slightest bit sexy to me. And it is scary if you have an active imagination.

Well, you all know what to do. We have to leave the evidence of a murder mystery in Moon's home. Or you could make the evidence authentic, but murder is typically frowned upon.

EEEE! EON! YER BACK! <huggles> AaAaAaAaAaAaA!

But it's already Saturday... Seems a bit late to be excited about Thanksgiving...

When I posted that, it was still Thanksgiving night, and I'd just finished eating.

Hehehe... There is no escape. Interesting how some languages have different words for teachers at different levels of education, and some don't. From what I remember, French also uses just one word for both.

I'll just have some lemonade, if you don't mind...

Understandable, though I don't see what it's scary and I clearly have an active imagination. Still, I understand, come online for comforting cuddles.

who's Tim Curry?

Doviculus, Nigel Thornberry, Vexus, Dr Frank En Furter. I could go on.

Exagerating/braging about my inventive ideas in DND and what not. Basically I'm being silly.

Ah, forgot that one.

[Teddy]

Oh, before I forget and the swing of the clock turns actuality to obsolescence:

Happy Birthday Mynxae!
May it forget its weak start and grow like the evening man, shining bright as Venus at its final hour, earning its place to remain eternal unforgotten in aeons to come.

[Eon]

EEEE! EON! YER BACK! <huggles> AaAaAaAaAaAaA!

Gah! I've been discovered! Time to flee!
*The wild Eon got away safely*
Hello there Luna, nice to see you.


Oh, Happy Birthday Mynxae
