Default Haruki's Historically Hilarious Honey-covered Random Banter #94

The Rules. You! Read these!

In order to try and keep these threads from becoming unmanageable, some rules have been created, and they accent the forum rules. Please read those first.

1. Spam. For the purposes of RB one word posts should be spam everywhere. Likewise, posts that are nothing but *actions like this* should also be considered spam. Quality of content trumps speed of response.
2. Ditch the "competition for control of the universe". It has ceased to be funny, and often branches out into little mock battles that fall into the spam definition laid out above. We've got a PbP section for fights, and even the Town has an arena, I believe.
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.
4. Stop advertising 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 stop with 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. Do not 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. No asking "What's the topic" or the ilk. This is *not* a conversation where you could've missed the begining, it's a forum where the current topic is nicely recorded for you. So 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

Anyone found breaking the rules will be sent to stand in the corner and receive a very stern talking to!

(We all have far too much spare time)


Spoiler


This thread is for random discussion, not random chit chat. There is an IRC chat thingy set up for that sort of thing. Not only will you not annoy the people here, you will also help increase the popularity of the IRC chat. It's win/win/win!

And now, without further ado, commence bantering!

Quote:
Minor Spam
Minor spam refers to posts that do not add to any discussion; often, one word posts will fall under this ruling (outside of SMBG games which require one-word responses of course). For example, quoting another users post and putting "QFT" or "quoted for truth," or a similar agreement, without adding any additional information of your own would fall under this rule. Posting any page or response claim - for example, "first page! or "first response!" would also fall under this heading, even if you include other discussion in your post. Posts of this type will be removed or edited, and the poster may be issued an Infraction.

While it's still in the first page, is "Historically" spelled with two L's or with one L? I often get this feeling that I'm mispelling something...........>.>

Honey-covered, huh? 1ft of honey on the floor to keep people from leaving, and everyone will be hyper from the sugar? Sounds... sticky.

Speakin' of honey... and stickiness... I think, if I find the energy, am going to make baklava tomorrow. >< Because it is the bestest dessert evar... >>

I think Homer was trying to convince the police he wasn't drunk, but I'll have to check.

Rogue told me about Baklava once, but I never made it. Maybe I should try it out.

@FoE: No, sorry. I like the Simpsons a lot, but I'm not a close follower.

Don't tell him you were at a bar. He'll think you're drunk. But what else is OPEN at night?


Yay! New thread! In honour of this occasion, I present you with pseudo-Shakespeare.


I could totally make baklava. I have the phyllo...I should make that sometime.

You know, I don't think I've had any Greek food. Ever. No baklava, no ... er ... gyros, I guess. I know next to nothing about world cuisine.

In my house growing up, we ate pasta, cereal, TV dinners, and Chef Boyardee. That was it. If I ever get my own place I am never eating pasta again. We had it literally every other night, because we could get it in bulk for cheap at the warehouse.

Today I saw a miniature Stonehenge made out of snow, complete with the outer circle thing it had going.

My lifelong dream of meeting a modern druid is about to be realized.

There's a 'c' that sneaks in there somewhere to differentiate the two. I forget where, because its pretty stealthy like the 'r' in February.

Edible balaclavas? Sounds like something you'd find at a porno shop. A spy porno shop!

It wasn't intended to be edible. And I think it involved a goat somehow.

Woohoo!! New thread!!!

So, I went to the movies today. And I didn't enjoy my time there. Not a bit. For multiple reasons. I didn't like the movie, nor did I enjoy with the company of a person who went there with us. I feel like it was badly spent money...
