VOTE, the Democracy Demon's Devilishly Devious and Decidedly Diabolical Desultory Derision (Random Banter) #100

[RTGoodman]

@Ego: I thought the same thing! And then I got here and saw the poll was new and wondered how someone made one and was VERY confused. (I guess that's what I get for not reading people's usernames...)

Also, does this mean there'll be, you know, an official Design Contest sometime soon? That would be awesome...

[Rawhide]

I think it's a trick. The title says neither 100 or banter in it!

Rawhide attempted to fix that in the second post, but apparently VOTE is more decisive and caused even the (random banter #100) to disappear promptly.

Grrr. It did, but when I added a poll the title was snipped. Serves me right for trying to make you all a super special title , no good deed goes unpunished. There, fixed.

[Player_Zero]

This poll needs more definite 'yes's... That's the only answer that makes no sense.

That combined with several other things makes me feel a bit like this...

Hades from Hercules (Disney version)! I love that film despite numerous historical and mythical inaccuracies.

I never got to see that movie...Is it good?

[Thanatos 51-50]

In a word: No.

Butr I like my historical and mythological accuracis, so I'm not really the best person to ask about that.
I guess, if you look past all that stuff, it could be moderatly enjoyable.

Grrrrrawrrrr!!!

You just need to get some of the IT guys addicted to OOTS, then they will probably let it through as an exception.


I am married, therfore, I am told to change my mind several times a day, therefore, I am indecisive.

[Rawhide]

I should have been recording the results over multiple intervals, the percentages have been swinging quite wildly.

[Desidus]

haha wow, haven't seen Vote in forever (yes I know this is old news :( ).

And to let the record show, no is obviously the correct answer... well, I guess yes could be corr... or maybe.... UGH!

[SweetLikeLemons]

So, I voted Yes, but I am kind of rethinking that. Is there anyway to change my vote?

[Rockphed]

Yay! There is a poll again! Surely the redemption of the playground is nigh! Bring forth the fatted calf and let us feast upon it!

What do you mean we don't have any cows!? Surely we can use some other sort of calf. How about whale? Maybe Elephant? I have it! We will feast upon fatted llama calf! This is surely my best idea ever!

[Katonta]

Honestly people! Feasting on calves!? Why *pulls out wooden, crooked cane and leans upon it* in my day we didn't feast on them, we threw them into a volcano! And if we didn't have one, we made one out of cheese and threw that into the volcano! Of course, we'd all have to run away from the subsequent lava flow, but that was what happened when a lactose intolerant volcano was the closest thing to throw something into!

[Player_Zero]

Luxury.

Back in my day we'd get up at 1AM and work down t'e mill for 23 hour a day for tupence a week and we'd come home and our father would kill us and dance on our graves.


Also,

In a word: No.

Woahwoahwoah. That movie was entertaining. Entertaining is for what movie are. I mean CRUSH ZEUS? Awesome.

[Amotis]

So, I voted Yes, but I am kind of rethinking that. Is there anyway to change my vote?

Hehe. *licks Lemons*

So I just got something really cool today. I bought my new amp (Fender Pro Reverb, 1980 Blackface) today and the guy threw in a free custom made guitar that he said he would never use. And I adore it. It's a 7-string electric with I think a bass neck to compensate for the seven strings and some decent open humbuckers. The best thing is that he never got around to finishing it and it's currently fretless. Totally neat. I'm gonna raise the bridge, throw some heavy gauges on them .12 or .13's, run it throw some heavy effects and sustain the hell out of it and then take a rosin'd cello bow to it, Jónsi or Page style! But fretless and seven strings! So excited about making noise with it.

Also, my friend just gave me a bag with like 50 pepperoncinis that she took from work and I'm eating them like there's no tomorrow. Mmm.

[Player_Zero]

Wait, you're eating peppers? On their own?

Congratulations on the guitar... I didn't understand much of the details, but what I got was 'you got a new guitar and you're going to do things to it which will be exciting'.

[Dallas-Dakota]

Try red hot mexican chilli peppers on their own.

Firstly, suspend every fact you know about ancient Greece, its history and mythology. That done, watch the film.
It's very good as entertainment and the songs are really good. After all, a film's primarily for fun and Hercules is nothing but fun.
I mean, Pegasus blows out Hades' hair-fire:
Hades: whoa, is my hair out?
If you want any kind of accuracy don't watch the film.

[Oregano]

I reckon it's more accurate than Kevin Sorbo Hercules.

Now, to finish yesterday's comic!

[Player_Zero]

Why would you be looking for mythological accuracy in a Disney film anyway?

...It's not the best Disney film, mind you. There are some much better ones which you.

Aristocats for instance. 1970 film if I recall correctly.

Heh... And as such contains its share of racist. Remember the siamese cat? Yeah...

[Oregano]

The Sword in the Stone, Tron, Robin Hood, The Lion King. There's too many good Disney movies. darnit!

@V: Nightmare Fuel.

EDIT: Why aren't Disney Movies as good now?

[Player_Zero]

Also, want some nightmares?

Then watch this.


And whenever they catch you... They will kill you.

I love Zee Areestocrats. Ver' cool; but on the topic of racism/stereotypes let me quote lady and the Tramp:
Cats: We are Siamese if you please.
And all that very creepy song.

@Spiceboy: Disney's gone downhill because they've gone slapstick. What they need is the magic mix.
Mulan was a great film.
That waste of film Home on the Range was emphatically not.

@Zero: Watership Down is nightmare fuel. And the seagull swears. Before the watershed too! And the books great. Bigwig says 'Silflay hrakka' to General Woundwort! I use that sometimes too.

[Quincunx]

How did we get this far into a discussion of Disney high points without mentioning Lilo and Stitch and the strange looks I'm certain that more people than just me got when Lilo gave her reasons!

I doubt Aristocats is that old, unless it was re-released in theaters during my childhood. . .I'm not that old! (Evidence from my musical playlist to the contrary. . .)

[Oregano]

Indeed Mulan was awesome. I liked Alice in Wonderland as well.

They have gone down hill, although Kingdom Hearts is awesomeness, but that might be because of Sqaure Enix.

[Tempest Fennac]

I'd agree with you about Sqaure Enix being responsible (I didn't like KH2 at all, but the first game was really good). What's Chain of Memories like?

[Oregano]

I preferred the first one but the sequel was alright, I liked soem things int wo especially. Chain of Memories is alright, but it's not great, of course the remake that came with KH2 International(only available in Japan), was a full 3D remake for the PS2; it'd probably be awesome then especially with the Cloud summon.
