SMEE's Random Banter #97 of gender bending and closet bursting

SMEE · 04-23-2008, 07:29 AM

The Rules.
You Read Them!

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" eh. 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!

Now, misters, misses, mistresses and ladies, let the bantering begin.

Nychta · 04-23-2008, 07:32 AM

Woohoo! Do I get a prize for surely being ninja'd?

Edit: kay... so I wasn't...

Mordokai · 04-23-2008, 07:34 AM

Nadia!

*kisses*
*hides under skirt again*

Sorry, it was jsut so... comfy under there

Cobra_Ikari · 04-23-2008, 07:35 AM

...aww, poor Zakama...

*waits for one of the designated boogiemasters to bless the thread*

CurlyKitGirl · 04-23-2008, 07:35 AM

Yay, New thread.

Topic:
Last night I was up rather late (1:15am) because I was five chapters from the end of the story and you know what it;'s like: just one more chapter...
Then it's two chapters away from the end so you think why not? and finish the book.
ANywho, this book was rather depressing so I thought it'd have a sad ending but it was really happy. Total opposite of what I was expecting.

So I turn in for the night. And the first thing that happens onvce my head hits the pillow is the Pink Elephants Song pops into my head like this:
"I'm afraid, he''s afraid
Pink elephants on parade . . . "
and so on. And then the 'Arabian' bit comes in, the the skaters.
Cue confusion.

Why did I think/dream/have that soing attack me? I hadn't thought of Dumbo in aeons; no reason to do that. Just did.

Roguey...?

Help me!

Mordokai · 04-23-2008, 07:46 AM

I'm not sorry, I'm just afraid or Rogue

So I'll run away ASAP!

Call me!

Nychta · 04-23-2008, 07:57 AM

It's okay, guys. When I start posting nonsense, save me from the wrath of the mods, and make me go to sleep.

Flibberty-gibberty! Mackarooni-hi, Mackahooni-hey!

Uh...well, *trying to sound intelligent* Curly, I can't actually remember Dumbo. I'm certain I saw it, just I must have been too young to remember anything. Anyone had that feeling?

I'm da Rogue! · 04-23-2008, 07:57 AM

That's right, you two.

Behave yourselves.

@Curly: I was dreaming about the Rock Lobster tonight.
Same feeling.

T'ze'hai · 04-23-2008, 07:59 AM

Right.

Been away for a while. Not because I was away, but because Real Life caught up with me... You sometimes have those days (or weeks, in my case) that more or less live you, in stead of you living that time. Much too much to do, little time for anything else. I hate it when that happens, because somehow you will never completely catch up again. I always keep the feeling I'm still missing things that happened like a week ago, no matter how much I try to read back...

@ CurlyKitGirl: I sometimes get a song in my head, out of nowhere. Like I have some large database inside, that sometimes starts hitting files randomly, and something like a song or a memory or just an image pops into my head. Just enjoy the fact that somehow you can remember a lot. There's not much else to do. Or try playing metal when the song is really annoying

.

Ow, btw, it seems I'll be needing a personal avatar, as mine is not unique anymore...

Although it fits me quite right. I still don't know all corners of this forum, but could anybody recommend me an avatarist?

Nychta · 04-23-2008, 08:01 AM

Phase did my current avatar! And it's cool.

I'm da Rogue! · 04-23-2008, 08:03 AM

Go to Arts & Crafts ans see whose style you like best.

Also:

Rock Lobstah!

Well, Dr. Bath did great job on my series of avatar and I recommend him from the heart. Unfortunately, he's absent at the moment, so you may want to head over to Arts and Craft and ask for somebody to do it for you.

Nychta · 04-23-2008, 08:08 AM

*sniffle*
I never got a Bathatar. I was devastated to hear that he left - also because he was funny, but...

I'm da Rogue! · 04-23-2008, 08:09 AM

Yeah, FoE wanted a Bathatar too, but he never got one.

Also, Nadia, you are a dwarf!

Yay new thread indeed!!!

That scene of the movie is really freaky. The animators at Disney were smoking something that was still green when drawing it, and then they gave some to the producers so they would approve that scene.

"Look out! Look out!
Pink Elephants on parade!
Here they come!
Clippity cloppity!
They're here
They're there
Pink Elephants on parade!"

I'm da Rogue! · 04-23-2008, 08:10 AM

Hey! I love that scene.

one of Disney's best scenes.

Cobra_Ikari · 04-23-2008, 08:11 AM

...I didn't like that movie. Like...at all. >.>

*hides from Rogue*

Nychta · 04-23-2008, 08:12 AM

OMIGOSHYESIAM!

But Roguey!
We must never discuss...
The Secret Board Titles!
Especially not in front of Cobra.

Also, I just read the forum rules very thoroughly. What's a predicate?

I didn't say it is bad, I said they did it under influence of substances that are illegal in most of the countries.

So, you're saying you can create surrealism only when you're high?

\/ That #*&$(#*&!!!

Well, actually, he did, but he probably didn't want you to see it

Nadia, I must say you do good work at hiding your beard

And you're very charming for a dwarf

I know the feeling, I had to give up making avatars and fulfiling avatar requests because life started getting way too hectic. This week is quite quiet but it will be picking up again soon, probably next week. I hate homework and coursework, especially when every teacher you have sets it all at once. Do teachers ever talk to each other?!

Nychta · 04-23-2008, 08:19 AM

I'm sure CultDoctor is about to pop in and make a remark about my height, or lack of. Even Kaboose might.

Doihaveaname?, when that happens to me, I either go yell at my dean, who changes some scheduling, or collaborate with friends.

No, I didn't say you can do it ONLY when you're high. But there's a thin line between real surrealism (WTF?) and acid surrealism...

Perhaps, but we finish school in a few weeks so the deadlines for coursework are fast approaching and the homeworks are primarily practice exam papers. I'll be fine though; I only have three essays in for next week. Last week was a whole other story... About seven or eight had to be in last week, though the three in for next week are three left over from last week. One of which was in for before the easter holidays.

As I said, I'll be fine.

No, there isn't.
