Cyrano’s Non-Alliterative Inaugurational Random Banter #126 To Usher In The Future
An era has ended, a new era is begun! *Ride of the Valkyries*
I grant unto thee
The Randomest
Banter!
Have fun, but only fun as sponsored by the mods and members of our lovely forum, as described herein. Rulebreakers will be shot, survivors will be ushered in for tea and then eaten.
Rules
Spoiler
1. Spam. For the purposes of RB, one word posts are generally considered spam. Likewise, posts that are nothing but *actions like this* are also be considered spam. Remember that the quality of the post's content is much better than the speed of your response.
2. This isn't the Play by Post or Town forum, nor is it the Silly Message Board Games or Structured Games forum. Please avoid continuous roleplay or mock battles and fights such as the "competition for control of the universe".
3. If it's already a thread, don't bring it to RB. RB has such a huge range of subject matter even restricted to the little snippets that probably don't warrant their own thread, it doesn't need legitimate thread topics cluttering it up as well. The exception to this is to bring something that is off-topic from one thread, but on-topic for RB and the subject doesn't warrant a thread of its own.
4. Don't advertise other threads in RB. Just because these new threads move at speeds more appropriate to a message board than an IM session doesn't mean you need to come over to RB and brow beat people into posting in your latest brainchild.
5. Please don't post single line posts alerting us to your current status -- as in "I'm back." This is Random Banter, not "How to stalk Random GitP forum members."
6. Don't poke, kick or bump the thread. It will move at whatever pace it wants to. Also, please refrain from Captain Obvious comments akin to "My, the thread is fast today."
7. Random Banter can only be as good, or as entertaining, as you make it. Demands to be entertained will fall on deaf ears unless you can add something more meaningful to the conversation.
8. As this is a public forum, where the current topic is nicely recorded for you, and not a conversation where you could have missed the beginning, please refrain from asking something to the effect of "What's the topic?". Please take the time to read up a bit first.
9. Thread Creator must include the words "Random" and "Banter" as well as the thread #. Try to be concise as well.
10. Every post should contain two visible, legible complete sentences, Subject and Predicate. C'mon, make your old English teachers proud.
11. Remember, Random Banter is not your IM client. If you want to have a back and forth discussion with just one person, look in their contact information for IM details.
12. Whenever a new thread is created, all "first post", "first page", and all posts of that nature will be deleted by the administrators. Please avoid doing this, as it is frustrating for them to deal with one-lined posts like this.
13. Double-posting is not your friend. We have edit buttons for a reason.
And here, linked for your convenience, are the previous incarnations of this thread.
Previous Threads:
Recent discussions include: Does Cyrano secretly have a crush on Player_Zero, and does P_Z really despise Cyrano or is that all an act? When will the new thread be made? Why is Cyrano taking this long? Why did Cyrano change that username, anyway? Does he have something to hide? Tune in next time, which is actually this time, for answers!

So, yeah. Back to what I asked before. Should I re-dye my hair black?
Purple.

Click it. Or I'll never love you.
I really really want you to love me, but then again, it's unavailable in my country due to copyright. Looks like our continents will never let this romance come to pass, my dearest fraulein.

I do not care about your hair color, but if black suits you, then you should do it.

He should indeed.... or should he? Should anyone care about anything in this world? The answer.... well of course the bloody answer is yes! If nobody cared about anything the world would be a bloody depressing place to live in!

I honestly like it there. The campus isn't too big, and none of the buildings are scattered at all (ie. Dorms on one side, classes on the other). There's a nature reserve right off of campus.
We have a lot of good programs up here, too, especially in Natural Resources.

Cool. I got my results earlier. I now have 12 GCSEs all at C Grade and above.
Anyway, goodnight all, see you tomorrow.

In other, other news. It is a sad state of affairs when a college campus is not good walking.
Also, I've begun playing Pokemon Red again.
Also, I'm about 2/3 of the way through the Johnny Maxwell Trilogy.

Mmm... Nature reserves.
Well, with your glowing review in mind, I will allow her to continue considering Steven's Point.

Well, a college located within a major city might be unpleasant to walk, but could still be a valid institution of higher learning. It might even be nicer because you have all of the advantages of a city, such as clubs and bars.
Just saying. I would still pick a small college with a walkable campus.
Re: Cyrano’s Non-Alliterative Inaugurational Random Banter #126 To Usher In The Futur
Sexy. Reminds me of Kenyon in Ohio. They've got like some kind of state park or forest nearby and are practically nestled in the middle of the woods anyway...

Hello, Playgrounders! I come to you from Huntsville Public Library. Rest assured, I am having fun without the internet. It's a strange concept, I know, but it just takes some getting used to. I shall be returning to the sin and vice of the big city (and the dubious moral influences of the Playground) this Saturday, the 29th. See you then!

What shade of black are you thinking about? Like emo black? A really dark brown color is usually more flattering, you don't want to go around looking like you painted your head with roofing tar.
Or you could go with something more unique like a dark purple or cranberry type color, but that sometimes doesn't come out as well depending on the quality of the dye and so on.

If by "emo black", you mean "so black it looks blue", then of course not. I go for a more natural-looking black.
