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.
15. If you can avoid dibs calling on making the next thread, that will avoid people needing to wait if the thread hits 50 pages while the dibs-caller is asleep.

Gotta love the new thread smell!
Man, I'm tired. I might be turning in early tonight. (so, before midnight). Driving all day wears you out.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Today I finally reached my savings goal for the pre-ordering of a Wii-U by virtue of betting on myself against a moderately sized group of people who didn't expect me to do something so insanely improbable of myself they actually paid happily when proven wrong.
And well, knowing one very particular song and letting my hair be horribly altered.

Yeah. I certainly like white wine in general more than red, so I've never really come across a champagne I haven't been all for. Wit hthe exception of my first sip at nine or so for New Year's. Then I was all like "ugh. Wine is ucky!"
ION: So it turns out MoonCat is more tipsy after a glass and a half of sparkling white wine than she is after a large cup (tumbler?) of brandy. Interesting to know.
IOON: My brother is coming over from California tomorrow! YAAAY!

Yha, I guess I do. I just..don't really have the drive to go do anything
Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
I, on the other hand, have decided to refrain from the consumption of alcoholic beverages such that I will remember what people get up to at parties such that I may blackmail them.
The real reason is of course that I just don't like the smell of alcohol, and my brain tells me that if something smells bad it probably tastes bad.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
I once (read: last night) got slightly drunk on NyQuil
I would think it was just tiredness and/or the virus I had, but I had been more tired before, and had been more sick before, and that was the first time I felt like that.
So, yeah...
I got drunk. ON NYQUIL.
edit: Just to clarify, I only took the standard dose.

What is Nyquil?
ION: Amusingly, earlier today I was wearing a lampshade on my head. At the time, I was not aware that I would be consuming anything evenlsightly alcoholic later.

A brand of over-the-counter nighttime cold medicine. It has trace amount of alcohol, but now that I think about it, it was probably the other ingredients that made me feel funny.
Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Essentially cough syrup and so, like cough syrup and its potential for abuse, a high dosage or sensitivity to the ingredients can cause a reaction other than an alleviation of cold and flu symptoms.
Nyquil is also supposed to make you drowsy so you just sleep through it/sleep it off, though on some people I believe it has the opposite effect, sort of like how benadryll will either make some people sleepy or some people pep up but rarely will they not have any reaction to it along that axis.

I think you've done that to me before.

*chuckles* I only know of Nyquil being a cough medicine from The Big Bang Theory.
ION: I'm getting cuddles tonight!

Yes. If you have any care for wine. The ~5-10 dollar bottles of non-champagne sparkling wine because of not being from that region of France you can acquire from liquor stores in the U.S., and I presume something analogous in Canadia, are actually usually fairly good as well.

I'd enquire into your blackmail operation, but that's considered rude.
Anyway... I too can blackmail people without alcohol being involved, but embarrassing moments are most readily observed when the person in question is intoxicated.

Your eldest brother's engagement party I believe. Or something like that.. If you had a phone, then I would've texted you embarrassing things once or twice. If you actually had a mobile phone.

My eldest brother's engagement party was two years ago. You do so many embarrassing things I lose track.
