Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Indeed they are poisonous. I do believe they contain their toxin in the hairs on their leaves and stems to deter animals from consuming them and to discourage those same animals from brushing up against them. We have some potatoes that my Mum is cultivating, but I don't believe they have the same defence mechanisms. I shall have to examine them closely when I next have time.
And unfortunately, I find it very hard to find gloves that fit and are comfortable as I have large hands. Admittedly, at the moment, our tomatoes have declined in number, but they persist and shall return in force when the conditions are right.
Indeed. Our climate is conducive to the propagation of vegetation. Provided said vegetation can tolerate heat and extended periods of dry conditions. Many of the plants in our garden die back when it is too hot and dry for them and return when the weather is more conducive.
Unfortunately, despite a warm climate, getting edible plant life to do what you want is not always so easy. Our last attempt to grow carrots ended with very healthy plants with small roots as they felt no need to store nutrients for the harsh Winter they would never experience. I fear that they may be growing in intelligence.
The mere description of your ring evokes images of unrivalled colour into my mind. Truly, you are fortunate to have such an object in your possession.
I shall have to read up on garnets once more as it has been several years since I last absorbed knowledge concerning them.
And finally, on the topic of snow: I've never seen it and it has not snowed in Brisbane since before my parents were born. And according to the historical records, that was a very minor occurrence.Last edited by Elemental; 2012-10-11 at 12:03 AM.

Just point the nozzle away from it and it'll be fine.
I'm most definitely finetastic. Myxolidiously perfect in terms of Doric modality as much as a Russian Minor on Greek modality. Minictastically ectastic with a flare of refenestration of the highest order due to the conflagration of my confabulations. It is a clarity of the upmost hypernormality which I experience through which I can say that I indeed are not loopy or my head is at all fruity.The Iron Avatarist Crypt of Fame - Exorcising photobucket from the historic archives of the forum.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Mine is aquamarine or bloodstone.
And according to the Zodiac, also amethyst.
There's actually an interesting poem about it on the Wikipedia page.Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars. (::)

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Really... You can't judge whether or not a person is loopy or not by the colour of their hair. I have plain brown hair and I'm very loopy sometimes. Unless I'm in pony form, and then I usually have purple and blue hair.
Mostly when I'm tired and/or I've have forgotten to take my medication and my brain starts trying to adjust to the lack of introduced chemicals. Fortunately, I always remember my medication and loopiness results solely from my own natural loopiness and/or sleep deprivation.Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
While hair colour is not indicative of sanity, it can be indicative of the loss of such.
I had absolutely no idea there actually was a musical episode considering the series did have a consistent plot at least until around season 3 or 4 when I no longer had access to DVD. Consistent plots don't normally lead to musical episodes.
Nah, it's me. Proof can be found on October 8th log at 4:45:05 PM where there was a discussion about RB general direction.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Yup, there was, and it was awesome.
Joss Whedon had always want to produce a musical, and when he knew he had such a musical cast (Anthony Stewart Head was in a band as well as a West End production of The Rocky Horror Show (they even released him singing Sweet Transvestite as a single), James Marsters has played solo and in a band, Amber Benson didn't have such a musical background but happened to be quite good), he knew he just had to make a musical episode for Buffy. He was adamant though, that it can't be a once off standalone kind of thing, it must have a lasting impact on the plot (and that it did).

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
I think my birth stone is Topaz.. Which was my favourite gem before I found out anyways. Apart from Emeralds and Sapphires.

As much as I love the garnet, my favorite is the ruby.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
My birthstone would be the emerald, which is good, seeing how it's my favourite gem (pretty green colour). Unless you go by the Zodiac or the day of birth, in which case it would be the sapphire, which is good, seeing how despite green being my favourite colour, I seem to excert some sort of magnetic attraction toward the colour blue. I dress completely in blue, for example, and that isn't even by design.
Nah, I wouldn't call it embarrassing. I mean, if I don't get complete silence, complete darkness, perfect shielding against any eventual cold and something to hug, I'm going to have a miserable night. That's just the way it works, so I fail to see why I should be embarrassed about it.
There's at least a month's time before I can expect any snow to fall over here. I'm both living to the south of you and have the Gulf Stream running through my neighbourhood, so my climate is distincly more temperate than yours.
As Coid suggested, can't you tape over the gap? Or fill it up with cotton? Or buy a roll of insulation tape (sort of like a small, soft rubber tube with glue on one side) and tape it around the edge of the window?Clouddreamer Teddy by me, high above the world, far beyond its matters...

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
I don't like snow, and there'll probably be more where I live this year than ever before...
Also, I finished my maths homework, and now I have 3 hours to finish physics. It'll be easy if I can get off the internet...

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Sorry, I had a surprise visit from a friend (my place is closer to a last minute early job interview he had, so I offered it to him. He got the job!), so I've been kinda AFK all day. But yes, Zodi, I would gladly be all over you. <3
Err, wait, what I mean is, I'm totally up for sharing your bed and helping you feel...restful.
Love you. =)
Noted. =3
Rubies are my favorite, too. Though I always wondered why they decided that pigeon blood is the ideal color for a ruby. It's a but morbid. And why PIGEONS?Cobra Avatar by the lovely Miss Nobody.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
It's merely a reference to the deep red colour of arterial blood. Nothing more.
And pigeons aren't symbols of peace... That's doves. Pigeons are symbols of love and marital bliss and of happiness in the home.
At least in Europe. The term originated from Burma, or perhaps China.
Anyway... My evening has not been going well. I would go curl up and cry, but people would intrude.Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars. (::)

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Hmm, seeing how they translate to the same word in Swedish, I didn't actually know this.
...
Wikipedia isn't especially helpful in pointing out the difference between them both either...
That's sad to hear. Don't you have your own room to lock yourself into (or at least close the door to) if you feel like being alone for a while?Clouddreamer Teddy by me, high above the world, far beyond its matters...

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
That's because there isn't really a difference aside from the name...
I do have my own room. But going in there at this time and closing the door would attract attention as my room is tiny and devoid of anything to do.
So instead, I seek solitude in the open and hope that no one disturbs me.
I actually feel much better now that I've had dinner. I should eat more so I don't tire so easily. But it's hard to do so when you rarely feel hungry.
I just need to avoid human contact so no one makes any demands of me for the next few hours.Last edited by Elemental; 2012-10-11 at 06:13 AM.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Actually, according to Wikipedia, the terms pigeon and dove are interchangeable and both refer to a wider family of birds
