Curly's Rambunctious and Erudite Random Banter #140
Random Banter
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.
14. Once you have made a Random Banter thread, you must wait 50 threads before making another one.

Re: Curly's Rambunctious and Erudite Random Banter #140
It must be noted that this is an erudite thread and so I will refrain from doing nonsensical things as a new thread boogie. I'd rather enjoy a delicious and warm cup of tea with my fellow erudite forum posters who will most likely come to this thread attracted by the sweet feeling of knowledge and eruditeness.
Edit: And what was thought to be a perfectly erudite first post for a perfectly erudite thread gets beaten by Cassie.

But may I also point out rambunctious meaning 'noisy' etc. etc. so I think a *boogie* is in full demand.
Then it must be an erudite boogie!
@Lord of Syntax: I'm sorry, but that's not how it works... If you're here by the time this thread gets to page 50, then you can ask for it and the Official Random Banter Thread Granting Committee will review your case. From then, you can expect a formal response in three to four weeks.
Nah, just kidding. Just be here when this hits page 50 and we'll all see.

(sniff) The new thread smells like old books, flaking leather, age-spotted paper, a whiff of acidic and ancient ink. It's cloying. Instead of a floor-thumping boogie which might shake the books to pieces, there will be a meditative boogie session with twined legs under lamps shielded to not emit damaging and inharmonius wavelengths. Free your mind and your ass will follow. . .what sort of herb was in that tea ball?
Other than the strangest urge to lick Curly like she was a toad.

Ye Gods. At #142, I will again be eligible. Has it really been that long?

It's certainly possible. However, whatever damage it does is not as bad as the damage done by shampoo and hairbush: the surfectants in shampoo not only dry the hair out, but also damage the cuticle, making it frizzier and generally unhappy. The active ingredients in shampoo are identical to those in dishwashing detergent . . .

I hope you don't mind me saying this, but that doesn't exactly seem right, only one-quarter of your time at uni/(US) college is in your major/specialist area. I mean, I'm mostly well-rounded - PE and some sciences excepted - enough to function in 'real life' and my university life is because I'm crazy-insane-in-love with one specific subject above all others and that's what I want to get massively in debt studying.
Nice to see you're on track for your graduating though. But couldn't you get above your graduation minimum? Or would that mean taking dozens of five credit classes and going into a meltdown during every holiday?
Well, thirty-one a year. It's set up so that you can take one fifteen-credit and one sixteen-credit semester every year. I'm not hugely fond of the distribution requirements myself, though - I fulfilled almost all with the credits I transferred in, meaning that I could actually (in theory) take 100% history classes for the next two years if I wanted to. 36 is just the minimum. That way people can double-major or minor in things if they want to as well.

Or do you have to apply to Office G, pick up Forms XQd34fGF - S, fill them in and hand them to Office B3a and another host of complicated doohickeys?
And as I have been awarded the title of Mistress of Tempting by all my Uni Friends: Allow me to tempt you to study in England. It'll be fun.
Yeah, that's not the issue. The issue is that if I went abroad I don't know if I'd be able to graduate in normal time. I could go to the UK just for fun, though. My friend is transferring to a school in London next year (her family's English, though she's lived in the US since she was little, and she wants to go back) and I've promised her I'll come visit, that would be a perfect excuse to see you as well.

Man, am I even needed around here anymore?
Gonna go sit in the corner muttering to myself about the youth of today and their Random Banters and Shipping Threads and Playground Families.
I remember the Town beginning. And AMEN. And the Feud. And that photo of Ego wearing antlers.
Ah, Antler Ego...

It's hard to do so when I am still waiting for teenagers with minor rebellious streaks yet still cow tow to the law to collect the eight potential rainbow keys to free me from my prison here in the land of clockwork and magma.
Video games need more gear shapes for character creators that allow custom logos or tatoos.
Wait, are you older?

Re: Curly's Rambunctious and Erudite Random Banter #140
Hmm, yes, I believe both P_Z and myself are older than you, though that more depends on whether the perception of you as being in your first year of Uni or last year of secondary school holds to the light of the candle.

I'm as confused as you are. how exactly would you lick someone like they were a toad? people lick toads?
Yay new thread!! *bakes celebratory cookies*
speaking of cookies, my aunt was attempting to bake homemade chocolate chip cookies the other day, and somehow she ended up getting dough on the ceiling. reminds me of the time she tried to make applesauce in a blender and the lid flew off and sprayed applesauce all over the walls. my Aunt has had her share of cooking crisis.

Yes, the Mental Age comment was related to myself.
By the way Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire thank you for the incredibly uncomfortable scene of Moaning Myrtle hitting on Harry. And the incredibly unnecessary minute long shot of her leaning on his shoulder to ramp up the creepiness.
