I'm sorry squiddy dearest, there was no plane, nor any plane-shaped objects, in my previous avatar. You're quite mistaken. Perhaps you would like me to take you to the opticians?

Nah, nah. I meant with the previous "shrouded in darkness" avatar.

If it makes you feel any better, for a while people thought my original avatar was a pinata.

You mean it wasn't a piņata? (What avatar was this again?)

No, but the point is certainly up to interpretation. Within the clouds of credulity, I would have had you believe that it was a brief glimpse into a strange otherworld dimension. A small rift in space out of which was looking a purple eye.

An interesting bit of geometrical art would also have been an acceptable answer.

So would "Side-scroller enemy"

It's a Beholder wearing party hats.

Actually, it's the secret Sable Badge. It allows to control pokemans with power level 9000 or greater, and it grants you the ability to bring Aeris back to life. Of course, in order to win it, you have to take on the secret gym leader Solid Snake in a special hide-and-seek minigame. Or help him move.

Heh. That makes no sense, but the sheer absurd awesome of it appeals to my geeky Dethklok-loving, sense-ignoring fanboi gamer side. So, Eggy like.

I am intrigued by this particularly sticky and delicious sounding interment rite (with its supplementary promises of Katamari-like Mummy powers), and wish to know more.

For you, a visit to the Cadbury factory should be sufficient. Then, you can become a caramel egg! Of course, you'll have to run from the hordes of Cadbury-egg lovers..

It was tricky work; I had to pester Saithis for weeks before she'd actually entomb me alive in a coffin of molten caramel. I think it's about the second most delicious way to go
As to the Katamari powers, it becomes very simple. Once your essence is infused with sticky caramel, you can simply run around picking stuff up and sticking it to yourself until you've achieved a ball-like state. From there, you just continue exuding caramel outwards to hold new acquisitions in the growing Caramari.

Just watch out for seawater and cold weather.

I gotta HUGE favor to ask of anyone with a good knowledge of english grammar.


I have an application essay or two that needs some proof reading. And as I am sure you all have seen from my posts here, I need some proof reading. So I beg of you, anyone who is reading this, and has the time and ability, please PM me so I can get the essay to you to proof.


I would love you forever. I might even be suckered into an avatar request, if that is the kind of bribe it took.

My spidey senses started tingling -- someone must've moved off topic banter over into RB!

Behold!


Anyhow, as mainstream/major market chocolate goes Godiva's beats any thing else I've had (Cadbury, Lindt etc) hands down. But small makers are going to typically craft more interesting and fitting (better is such a hard term) chocolates allowing an individual to find their own 'perfect' piece.


And chocolate is not bad for you in the least. Plenty of research studies have proven such. EATING TOO MUCH OF ANYTHING will cause you to gain weight -- especially true of things with a high sugar content.

My grandfather takes half a bar of Dove dark chocolate every night. He calls it his heart medicine.

Having said that, I must agree that Dove dark chocolate is probably my favorite kind. But honestly any dark is good....

Ironically, when I'm offered chocolate, I often choose not to have any. This resulting from my tendancy to not stop eating it once I start...I've learned to simply not start.

Forgive me, I have never heard of Godiva (the chocolate). That's not mainstream in Australia. By mainstream, I mean, available on pretty much every supermarket shelf.

You are right, better was the wrong word. "Finer" might be more appropriate.

When you're female, at certain times, you just need chocolate. It could be crap chocolate. But at long as it's chocolate, you don't care.

Hmmm, supermaket shelf, eh? That pretty much only leaves Hershey in the US. And that's just not fair. So yeah, Dove, Lindt, Cadbury. Take your pick.

Godiva has specialty shops that can be found in pretty much any major mall or boxes in fancier gift shop type places.

You are, of course, aware that the difference between dark chocolate and milk and "chocolate in general" (You, as an American, think of milk chocolate as the "general") is just a tremendous amount of sugar, yes?
