Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
And now I desire to cultivate the tomatoes that grow wild in our garden despite our attempts to remove them. But alas, I hate tomatoes.
And that was an excellent choice of adjective. Reference to garnet, I believe?
We just don't do Thanksgiving in Australia. So thus, a turkey dinner lacks that cultural importance.
However, were we to celebrate some version of Thanksgiving, it would likely be by the consumption of roast lamb.
And finally, on the topic of Macbeth; When I studied the play in school, we always referred to it as Macbeth and the characters by their proper names.
We were so liberated from superstitions, it was great!Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars. (::)

As God is my witness, I thought they could.
Actually, some wild turkeys can fly. I've seen it myself - an actual turkey just flying up into a tree. It looks really awesome, actually.Last edited by Dimonite; 2012-10-09 at 11:29 PM.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Tomatoes are pretty aggressive self-seeders; and they are a perennial in their native habitat, so in your climate I can understand how they would thwart you.
Do you like ketchup? That uses up a whole buttery oak tub of tomatoes, and tends not to incite the revile that the fruits alone do. Which I do not understand, since I have not yet met a fruit or vegetable I do not like.
You're right -- reference to a kind of garnet that has the orangey-red tone of many tomatoes.
Although there are darker red, pink, white, yellow, green, purple, and black tomatoes, too.
*hugs* I'll leave it at the post office in the morning.
I take me now to an overdue bed. Goodnight, one and all!
Thanks again for the matches, Herr Sheep.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
I do indeed enjoy the application of tomato sauce, as we so simply refer to ketchup here in Australia, on certain foods. I also have no problem with tomato soup, pasta sauces that use tomatoes, or any number of tomato containing foods. It must merely be an unusual property of the tomato.
However, my skin reacts to the stems and leaves of the tomato plant making picking them an unpleasant experience if carried on for too long.
Hmm... Such an interesting range of colours... Similar to that of garnet itself...
I do believe one can get garnets in all shades of red and similar colours. Also in green for some reason.
Anyway... Goodnight to you Kneenibble. Enjoy your rest.Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars. (::)

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Seems my laptop mouse is kinda borked. Every single click results in a double click. You have no idea how annoying that gets, especially if you want to move documents around.
I just accidentally opened like 20 pdfs at once. My computer had a heart attack and promptly restarted itself.Awesome fremetar by wxdruid.
From the discomfort of truth there is only one refuge and that is ignorance. I do not need to be comfortable, and I will not take refuge. I demand to *know*.
So I guess I have an internets? | And a trophy. | And a music cookie (whatever that is).

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
That doesn't sound like a hardware problem to me--sounds more like "OhgodIhaveaviruswhatdoIdonext?". Certainly the OS installation on that machine must be in a pretty sorry state if it crashes when you have the temerity to try and open a whole 20 PDFs at the same time...

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Heh. That last part might have been slight dramatic embellishment. I'm pretty sure it's the mouse. But when every click and drag results in an opened file, it gets old really quick.
Cool. You can have the mouse then. I'll email it to you
Also I just somehow managed to open two new tabs in Firefox with a single click. That was kinda amusing.Awesome fremetar by wxdruid.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
I was going to say something that would have been really mean.
But I'll say this instead; College applications?
I don't know how it works in America, but I do know that over here in Queensland you have to achieve a certain academic level to get into different University courses. It's something like a one or a two for medicine, an eight at least for engineering...Mauve Shirt, Savannah, Gnomish Wanderer, Cuthalion and Smuchmuch get cookies for making me avatars. (::)

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
no, the third and fourth seasons are the best (respectively the butler under prince George and captain during the 1st world war). they both had the directness without real obscenity with a motherload of black stuff in the form of cynisism, sarcasm, irony and general nastyness against Baldrick. Plus it helped that Hugh Laurie had a prominent role in the whole scheme of things as well as Stephen fry (his role in the fourth was better then his role in the second) as some officer who thinks a rush is the best way to conquer the trenches.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Overall, the point of getting good grades is to give yourself a better life in the future, which is not to say that you can't have a good life with bad grades. Heck, two of my uncles who never finished college - one never went, and the other flunked out - are, in addition to being brilliant men, the owners of their own small business. They make large amounts of money, and lead wonderful lives.
That may have been tangential, but the point is - grades are good and all, but don't freak out too much about them.Quotes!

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
To be more exact: good grades in high school increase the chances of success in college or university, which increases the chance of having a well paid job, which in turn increases the chances on a bright future. Though nothing is certain, it does increase chances dramatically by offering more (and qualitatively better) options in life.

Thursday! BUT ITS ONLY 10 HOURS INTO WEDNESDAY! HEATHEN! BURN THE WITCH!
Oh, yes, GRADES. They are indeed, for a better future. Which is also attainable by anyone capable of getting those grades. Yes, I'm going to accuse grades of being a far-too-high measurement of how skilled a person is, but a decent measurement of willingness to work and dedication (Or, how good they cheat/natural ability)Last edited by Mutant Sheep; 2012-10-10 at 10:26 AM.

Yeah, I was going on a early days comic read just now. And then I had to look like, a whole hundred comics from where I was to get that link. I hope you're happy.
Hmn... I was already scrolled by Zeb... decisions! level a new guy or... try and understand what level 80 droods do to get damage, since my highest level drood was 35 before I kinda fell off the WoWing horse. (Paladin, I leveled though. a... 487 elf and a 60-something4 Cow. )
But ... then I'd be alliance, wouldn't I? What, am I gonna have to go dwarf shammy?Last edited by Mutant Sheep; 2012-10-10 at 11:23 AM.
