Cristo's Consistently Confusing and Constantly Casual Random Banter #105

[The Rose Dragon]

Hey, Turkey is where Gallipoli is. There are so many Aussies buried there your soil must of absorbed at least *some* awesome.

From Turks, yes. And then the ANZAC soldiers absorbed the excess awesome and became awesome themselves.

Then we get into the last fifty years and Turkey suddenly sucks beyond imagination.

[Zeb The Troll]

Did we just get Bilbowned?

"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."

*parses sentence again...and again...and again...*

I don't see what's so confusing about it. Here, let me replace some of the pronouns and see if that helps...

I've met far too many [Playgrounders] for anyone not [in the Playground] to remind me of any [Playgrounders].

In other words, no one can remind me of PhoeKun because I've met her and there is no other like her. The same applies to the rest of the Playgrounders I've met.

[The Rose Dragon]

But me, I am just a generic face that others can be mistaken for at will.

Well, that makes me feel much better about myself.

[YPU]

Yay, I’m of to my blacksmithing lessons now. Carry on all of you.

[Dallas-Dakota]

Why is it that everyone here seems to know people in RL that remind them of playgrounders? I don't think I know anyone who does. Other than me, that is.

Heck, I barely know a few people who are at all familiar with Internet culture...

It's just the personality.....

Not a direct clone...

[CurlyKitGirl]

I got an A, if that's what you mean
Yeah. And thanks for the assist, as always!

*boogie time*
Glad you got such a good mark. And I only provided some site links and a little bit of perspective vis a vis what it did to feudalism.

me too, apparently.

Well, me and Cassie are your almost - triplet siblings, so there's that. And then wadledo's one who might very well be your actual (very) distant relation and then . . .
Personality clones are easy enough. But I have the local equivalents of CSK (looks when compared to You thread pics); ruki - chan (personality); SMEE (looks; SMEE - clone has a horrible personality); and someone who occasionally displays Eggy and Charity - like tendencies.

[TwoBitWriter]

*Raises a glass*

Here's a toast to listening to your favorite music while you're at work. It really helps the day get by!

[Dragonrider]

Yes. almost-triplets is BETTER than clones. MUCH better.

[Cristo Meyers]

I've been systematically exterminating my so-called "clones" since I was 16...

...bloody things escaped the basement and I've been hunting them down ever since.

[Mordokai]

Wait, there are others like you out there?

[TwoBitWriter]

I think its perfectly legal to shoot any Cristo-Clones on sight in about thirty states.

In Oklahoma and Texas, its pretty much legal to shoot anything that moves (I think the "Make my Day" Law passed a couple years back...)

[Cristo Meyers]

Yeah, after the Great Buildup of '99 a lot of states had to start passing measures to keep it from happening again.

Damn things multiply like rabbits.

We're pretty sure we've gotten all of the ones in Florida, New York, and California and there's a cell in Nebraska we're keeping an eye on.

Wait, there are others like you out there?

We're waaattccchiinnngg you...

[AKA_Bait]

So, here's a random question. I just realized that I can have my forum handle changed. I'm kinda torn on if I want to change it a lot or a little. I could just replace the underscore with a space, or go for something like my actual name (Patrick) which is what I originally wanted when I signed up for the forum but was taken. What do folks think?

And yes, I am that bored at work today.

[Mordokai]

We're waaattccchiinnngg you...

All of a sudden, I feel very dirty...

[banjo1985]

Yes.

We're watching you.

...with our eyes!

[Mordokai]

*gauges eyes out*

What?!

[Destro_Yersul]

Paladins can't do that!

*whacks with the FALLhammer*

[Cristo Meyers]

Paladins can't do that!

*whacks with the FALLhammer*

Either he's already fallen and is just in denial or he has the most forgiving patron I've ever seen.

I'm going with the former.

[Mordokai]

Oh, shush you

Or I'm gonna ship you with me, genderbent. Twice. As in, both of us.

[Castaras]

Yes. almost-triplets is BETTER than clones. MUCH better.

Seconded. ^.^

[Cristo Meyers]

Oh, shush you

Or I'm gonna ship you with me, genderbent. Twice. As in, both of us.

A: You'd probably kill RHL.

B: I've been teasing you as Mi'ir for what, a few months now? And you think that would bother me?

[Lex-Kat]

If I were you, I'd change it completely, and not tell anyone. Start over, and have them think you are someone completely new.

But that's just me.

[Mordokai]

A: You'd probably kill RHL.

B: I've been teasing you as Mi'ir for what, a few months now? And you think that would bother me?

A: she would die happy

B: worth giving it a shot

[InaVegt]

Figured this'd be the best place to ask.

Is there some sort of muffin themed event going on here?

+Ina

[RabbitHoleLost]

A: she would die happy

Amen to that.

[The Rose Dragon]

Cat-muffin, and yes. It also is very annoying.

When was the last time you saw a three-tailed silver squirrel themed week?

[CurlyKitGirl]

A: she would die happy

B: worth giving it a shot

Yes. It is.
Do it. Now.

In slightly related news: I had a wonderfully perfect geeky moment of joy today. Why? A collection of ancient texts (most of them have the original language and translation next to them) from pretty much some of the best mythologies and very good writings full stop.
Welsh - it has the entire Mabinogion and many Taliesin poems.
Irish.
Chinese - it has the Art of War on it.
Greek.
Latin.
So. Many. Books. To. Read.

[Cristo Meyers]

I'm sadly running out of new books to read. I just finished the Thrawn Trilogy, on Shadows of the Empire now, and the Aenied after that, then I'm out.

I must rectify this situation...

why is everyone so keen on Mordokai/Cristo slash?

[The Rose Dragon]

why is everyone so keen on Mordokai/Cristo slash?

Cause two hot men banging each other is totally hot.

Even for straight men.

If you mean the twice-gender-bent version, then no, it isn't hot.

[Mordokai]

why is everyone so keen on Mordokai/Cristo slash?

Must be that sky high charisma of ours
