Questions Only

[ElizabethSewall]

Shall we compare them to the Siths?

[AimusSage]

Would that not be an unfavourable comparison?

[ElizabethSewall]

Unfavourable for the Siths or the Jedis?

[AimusSage]

do you really think the jedi are so wise?

[ElizabethSewall]

Would I be training to become one otherwise?

[AimusSage]

Do you understand the force?

[ElizabethSewall]

How do you call my inner strength?

[AimusSage]

Is that all there is to the force?

[ElizabethSewall]

Am I not just training and therefore not entirely aware of the Force?

[AimusSage]

Would you like to learn more about the force?

[ElizabethSewall]

Why do you think I chat with my Master?

[AimusSage]

Does your master know the answers to your questions?

[ElizabethSewall]

Don't you think my Master knows everything, beyond boundaries?

[AimusSage]

Don't you think his jedi ways prevent him from knowing everything?

[ElizabethSewall]

Don't you know he has multiple skills and is also a hero, outside of being a Jedi?

[AimusSage]

is that enough to know everything?

[ElizabethSewall]

Aren't you afraid he might read your mind?

[AimusSage]

Are not many minds unreadible?

[Mililalil XXIV]

Is that really what you're thinking?

[Adelheid]

Do you think you know what he thinks?

[RobinHood3000]

Is it ever?

Does anyone?

[Adelheid]

What do you mean? Are you being unintelligible?

[RobinHood3000]

Skibberdoobaflerta?

[Pendragon]

Say what? Could someone please bring me an ear trumpet, I am certain I am misunderstanding what Robin said, somehow? :lol:

[AimusSage]

Didn't he just say Skibberdoobaflerta?

[myself]

what does that mean?

[ElizabethSewall]

Isn't it required to be a super hero to understand Milord Robin?

[Virgil]

Doesn't it depend on what type of superhero he is?

[RobinHood3000]

Gamsyarsafoipee?

[Mililalil XXIV]

eh????????!

[ElizabethSewall]

Don't you understand my Master's witty language?

[adilyoussef]

And who is your Master?

[ElizabethSewall]

Isn't he M'lord Robin, the "king of the shapeshifters"?

[adilyoussef]

Where is Robin?

[ElizabethSewall]

The big question is where does Robin live? :nod:

[adilyoussef]

Do you know where?

[ElizabethSewall]

According to his time, I'd say Canada or the US. Don't you think so?

[adilyoussef]

Maybe we should ask him as well?

[ElizabethSewall]

Don't you think he might not want to say?

[adilyoussef]

What are we going to lose if we ask?

[ElizabethSewall]

What would we have left if he logged out to escape the question?

[Mililalil XXIV]

Who really cares about a way out?

[Pendragon]

Come now, me lads and lasses, where else would a bloke named Robin 'Ood live but Merry Auld England?

[Mililalil XXIV]

Aren't you harboring him in a chicken coupe?

[adilyoussef]

How are you Mililal?

[Pendragon]

Do you think a find Lord like Robin would design to allow himself to be put up in a common chicken coop, varlet? Tis more like he'd have ME thrust into one head foremost, is that not more likely? Art thou well, Adil, my fellow poet?

[RobinHood3000]

Aren't I more generous than to do ill to mi amigo Pendragon?

[AimusSage]

Aren't all Jedi goody do-gooder?

[RobinHood3000]

Why shouldn't we be?

And aren't all Sith horrendously ugly?

[AimusSage]

Aren't the most evil the most beautiful? Don't they disguise their evil well? Is subterfuge not one of the things the Sith do best?

[RobinHood3000]

Can you name one non-ugly Sith?

[AimusSage]

Why would I want to do that? Do you think it is my place to reveal her identity to you?

[ElizabethSewall]

Are we talking about a she ("her")? :brow:

[AimusSage]

Perhaps the Sith are not as ugly as the Jedi would have you believe?

[ElizabethSewall]

Are you insinuating that Master could be fooling me?

[AimusSage]

Do you not think that perhaps your master is misled himself?

[ElizabethSewall]

How could he be?

[AimusSage]

How does the dark side cloud ones judgement?

[ElizabethSewall]

Maybe Master isn't really Master? *suspicious*...

[AimusSage]

What are you suggesting with that?

[ElizabethSewall]

Could the dark side be manipulating Master, like a mere puppet?

[AimusSage]

Would your master know this?

[ElizabethSewall]

Wouldn't the Force help him to free himself?


Gotta go! See you and have fun. :wave:

[AimusSage]

What if the force itself is manipulating him?

Bye! have a nice day! :wave:

[woeful painter]

Can a "master" still be manipulated by another's force?

And what's this about us Siths being ugly?

[AimusSage]

Who said anything about another's force? Is not the Force master of it's own fate?

[woeful painter]

Perhaps so, but how can you say the Master is mislead by his own force? Did he not chose it wisely from the beginning?

[AimusSage]

Do you not sense the stirring of the force? Do you see how the balance is disturbed?

[woeful painter]

How do you say his force is stirred? Was there an act done by him to justify this thought and perhaps show that there IS an inbalance in the Force?

[AimusSage]

But is his forced stirred, or is merely his perception of the force stirred? Is there perhaps someone that clouds the force, making it difficult to see, creating an imbalance?

[woeful painter]

Perhaps we underestimate Jedi Masters too much to be lead to think their conviction may be stirred? But who might this person disturbing the force be...?

[AimusSage]

Did not a wise Jedi Master once say that one should rely on the force, but never only the force, for it can be misleading? Perhaps the Jedi master himself disturbes the force?

[woeful painter]

if the force is misleading, should we or not use it then? So you mean the Master himself can cause chaos? Are you not jumping to conclusions without heavier grounds?

[AimusSage]

Is the force not a powerful ally? Why do you assume so much on mere words? Why do you not search your inner feelings? What do they tell you?

[woeful painter]

Perhaps I am much in doubt and in question for I still am an apprentice? My feelings are indifferent for the system of each side of the force, what does that mean?

[AimusSage]

What does the indifference mean if nothing is what it seems? Why doubt if nothing is certain?

[woeful painter]

if nothing is, and I am but a learner, what will become of me then?

[AimusSage]

Is not the path of the apprentice a long one? Is it so hard to wait for the teachings to explain?

[RobinHood3000]

Has Darth Sidious won any beauty contests lately? Does not his ugliness counteract the beauty of any Dark Ladies?

[Anon22]

Will all these questions ever be answered?

[AimusSage]

Are the Jedi so focussed on outer appearence to not see the true beauty in the passion that lies beneath the surface of every Sith?

[RobinHood3000]

When such ugliness is so profound, can anyone NOT notice? Can passion be beautiful when all it can do is destroy?

[AimusSage]

Is love not passion? does love only destroy?

[RobinHood3000]

Is not love, like the Force, capable of creating as well as destroying?

[AimusSage]

Does this not invalidate your previous statement that passion can only destroy?

[RobinHood3000]

Did I at any point say that passion was equal to love?

[AimusSage]

You mean to say that love is without passion?

[RobinHood3000]

Perhaps I meant that love is purer than passion? Does not passion also encompass any strong emotion, such as hate?

[AimusSage]

Love is not a strong emotion then?

[woeful painter]

What does love have to do with the Force?

[ElizabethSewall]

Isn't love a Force in itself as well?

[Pendragon]

Aren't I more generous than to do ill to mi amigo Pendragon?
Oh, I doubt not thy purity, Robin, mi amigo, but was it not something you might do to one who would dare insult thy Lordship? Ah, these, Sithspawn! Did his nobility long disguise Sidious, once his ire was aroused? http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/starwars/star-wars-smiley-029.gif

[Virgil]

Are you talking about Star Wars or Lord of the Rings?

[woeful painter]

what was the topic again?

[Pendragon]

Do you recall any Siths in The Lord of the Rings? I was lead to believe they were Wraiths, is that not so?

[woeful painter]

are those the ones who kept chasing after Frodo?

[AimusSage]

Aren't these wraiths slaves to their master? Are Sith not master of their own destiny?

[Pendragon]

One who reads Tolkien would know that the Wraiths are slaves of the Ring, and thus subject to Sauron, The Dark Lord, is this not so? As to the Sith, they claim to be Master of their own destiny, yet does it not seem that the Darkside twists and shapes that destiny to suit itself, causing the apprentice to betray the master always? http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/starwars/star-wars-smiley-013.gif

[AimusSage]

Is not the apprentice master of his own destiny taking his place as the master when his time has come?

[Pendragon]

Did anyone say his time had come? Didn't he just up and knock off his master? What if he were far from ready, just tired of listening? If Palpitine was ready, why did he have to knock off his master in his sleep? Was he afraid the old dude would be too tough for him? http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/starwars/star-wars-smiley-025.gif

[AimusSage]

Isn't something like that called cunning? Are the Sith not masters of deception and subterfuge? Why take the chance of fighting a battle, when a simpler solution is available?

[RobinHood3000]

Aren't the Sith beleaguered by such emotions as pride? Is not defeating one's master in combat a Machivellian way to ensure that one is as skilled as one thinks one is?

[AimusSage]

Would not only a foolish Sith challenge his master when victory is not certain? What purpose does death serve to an apprentice? Would it not be wiser to think first, and take action when appropriate? Don't the true Sith understand the power of waiting and striking when the moment comes?

[RobinHood3000]

What would I know of the true Sith when they interact with each other?

[Pendragon]

Indeed, although my character of Jonathan Blade was originally written as a Dark Jedi, (then they took the book series in a whole new direction, trashin my ideas!), what would I know of the Sith mindset, except that they are sneaking? http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/starwars/star-wars-smiley-023.gif

[Virgil]

Where do people get those cool smilies?

[RJbibliophil]

How do you make links like that in your messages? What of the kind with text?

[Pendragon]

Would you believe it is as simple as copy/paste the url address into the text, making sure to leave a space after and before it? Or that you can type the address in and then put around it and it will work the same way?
http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/figuren/g030.gif

[RJbibliophil]

Is it possible for someone to delete ME (http://www.online-literature.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16817) right away? Did I make that link right?

[smilingtearz]

why would you want to delete yourself?

[Pendragon]

Haven't you ever had a day where you wished life had a rewind/erase button? http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/figuren/k065.gif

[myself]

haven't you sometimes let things go past and you know they r wrong and you can stop them?

[RJbibliophil]

Could I possibly convince Eva that I accidently made two identical threads instead of one but then Jay was really nice and deleted one for me?

[adilyoussef]

Couldn't you tell he yourself?

[Pendragon]

Is it possible that he has forgotten how to communicate? :p

Who knew about all these smilies? http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/musik/b015.gif

Thanks Pen!!!

[Pendragon]

Quite welcome, Virgil. Some sites I discovered myself, Night pointed me to one, and Sam to another, so I'm certain there are others out there! http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/tiere/e025.gif

[Virgil]

How is it that the gentleman is so knowledgable?

[Pendragon]

When one reads consistantly for nearly 40 years, and has a very high reading-comprehension level, one has to pick up at least a few things all the way, no? ;)

[Virgil]

Well, how come my brain is so empty? I too have been reading for nearly 40 years and picked up dribble, no?

[Pendragon]

Did you ever get so hard up for reading material that you actually read an entire set of encyclopedias and Webster's Dictionary? :p

[Virgil]

Did you do that?

[RJbibliophil]

Did you ever meet someone who did? Is it not a very fascinating hobby?

[Virgil]

Did I see correctly? Did I really see a talking piglet? http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/figuren/n040.gif

http://www.smilies.smileyville.net/smilies/208.gif

[smilingtearz]

A talkin piggy where.. where?? and Hey, Pen weren't you supposed to reply to virgil's question?

[Pendragon]

Sorry! http://www.cosgan.de/images/more/bigs/a102.gif Virgil, does that sound like something someone would brag about? Do not desperate times call for desperate measures? Have I not said we were rather poor when I grew up?

[Nightshade]

did I hear that???

[smilingtearz]

Night did you never hear of Pen's upbringing? So Pen are you trying to say that you haven't really gone crazy enough to read an entire set of encyclopedias?... I mean it is a crazy idea isn't it?

[Nightshade]

Wo says it is? Ever hear the phrase Truth is often labled crazier than fiction?

[smilingtearz]

and isn't fiction always better than the truth.. is there something known as bitter-fiction?

[Pendragon]

Well, it's not like it would be the first time I was called "crazy", but I have mentioned growing up in a house where ice would freeze on the inside of the walls in the winter-- now does that sound like the ritzy zone to anyone? http://www.cosgan.de/images/more/bigs/e136.gif

[Nightshade]

But surly some nutter would pay a fortune for a "real" experiance like that wouldnt they?

[smilingtearz]

Oh wouldn't you stop slapping your forehead Pen?

[adilyoussef]

Why Pen is salapping his forhead?

[Mililalil XXIV]

Haven't you heard?

[RJbibliophil]

Is your head really so empty that you have never before seen a talking piglet Virgil? Isn't it true that if the EVIL pen has been reading encyclopedias it would greatly benefit those ninja penguins of pens?

[Pendragon]

Does the Piglet not understand that it is not Pen who is evil, but merely the head of the Penguin Mafia whose idenity I am channeling randomly for the LitNet? He do have a way wit woirds don't he?

[Virgil]

Is your head really so empty that you have never before seen a talking piglet Virgil?
Why is the talking piglet so mean? Empty head and evil Pen? Can you not be a civil talking piglet? ;)

[Mililalil XXIV]

And what is this woirld coming to?

[Pendragon]

There is a general consensus that the world is coming to a end sooner or later is there not? http://www.cosgan.de/images/more/bigs/a108.gif

[smilingtearz]

where does he get so many smileys from? and RJ you aren't a mean piglet are you?

[Mililalil XXIV]

Youze callin' me a `glet an' a meansie?

[smilingtearz]

you think i was?

[Adelheid]

Well, you don't think I am surely???

[mingdamerciless]

now, now you're not callin each other names are you?

[Virgil]

where does he get so many smileys from? and RJ you aren't a mean piglet are you?
Don't you know if you go to page 174, post 2607 of this Questions thread, Pen tells us?

[Weeping Willow]

So what's up everybody?

[TBtheG]

not much, you?

[Weeping Willow]

how does it seem?... and bye the way do i know you? :wave:

[papayahed]

Have you 2 met?

[Pendragon]

If you haven't may I introduce you? Do you , Willow, wish to meet this person named TBtheG for the purpose of good conversation? And do you, TBtheG, wish to meet our friend Willow for the purpose of conversations on the LitNet? All parties now being agreeable, you may begin to form a friendship at once if not sooner, got it? http://www.cosgan.de/images/more/bigs/g105.gif

[TBtheG]

We've done a few murderin sprees together before, ain't that right?

[Pendragon]

Never shoot the messenger dude, he may hold vital information, that's the code, right?

[Dickensian]

That depends, what kind of information are we talking about here?

[smilingtearz]

IS it important to know?

[Pendragon]

Know what?

[AimusSage]

Are there unanswered questions in this thread?

[Riesa]

What is the meaning of life?

[smilingtearz]

Is that supposed to be answered??

[Riesa]

Aren't you the wise woman who has all answers at the end of her rainbow?

[smilingtearz]

Aren't the answers hidden beneath the gold .. would someone help me empty the pot?

[Riesa]

We need a large musclebound man to help, don't you agree?

[smilingtearz]

Do we have such strong men here?

[AimusSage]

Did I hear someone mention gold?

[smilingtearz]

Are you a strong man?

[Riesa]

He's either strong or greedy, or perhaps both? ;)

[smilingtearz]

Do you, like me wish he were strong?

[AimusSage]

Why would I need to be strong?

[smilingtearz]

Wouldn't you help me empty the heavy vessel filled with gold coins?

[AimusSage]

Is that not obvious? Do camels not have two lumps?

[TBtheG]

Some camels only have one lump, didnt you know that? Do me and my camel have to come over there?

[Riesa]

Are you trying to pick a fight with his two-lumped camel?

[TBtheG]

Are you going to accept?

[Riesa]

Why are you asking me? Shouldn't you ask the camel? :D

[RobinHood3000]

Who's got a dromedary around here??

[Virgil]

Why is Robin using such big words?

[Riesa]

Is it because his mouth is so big that small words get lost coming out?

[Virgil]

:lol:


Why is it when I look at Riesa'a new avatar I feel like covering my eyes out of respect for her privacy? :blush:

[Riesa]

Is it too risque? Or are you just a prude? :lol: ;) (maybe I should find another avy that is less bare)

[Virgil]

;) Who says I'm not just teasing? It's fine. :D

[Riesa]

Well, you know I'd change it if you said so, don't you, big brother? :p

[Virgil]

Why change if it makes you happy? Is the avy from mythology or a paintiing or something specific?

[Riesa]

Can't we just talk about how big robin's mouth is some more?

[TBtheG]

What about my camel fight?

[Virgil]

Don't you think that Robin's mouth is as a big as a camel's mouth?

[TBtheG]

Yes I do, I do times two, How about you?

[Riesa]

Is it so big he can fit two fighting dromedaries inside of it?

[Virgil]

If he pulled out all his front teeth, do you think then they might fit in his mouth?

[RobinHood3000]

Are we back on my body parts? Are you lookin' to get spit on, Virg?? :p

[Riesa]

Who's doing the spitting, you or the camel?

[Virgil]

Why is it that it's always Robin who's body parts get icked on? :lol:

[Riesa]

Isn't it a forum tradition?

[mingdamerciless]

How did that tradition start then?

[Pendragon]

Wasn't it the traditional way? :rolleyes:

[Virgil]

Didn't it start with Robin losing his nose one day?

[RobinHood3000]

Is it really that important to you to make fun of my body parts? Why not praise them once in a while?

[ElizabethSewall]

By which part shall we begin our praises?

[RobinHood3000]

...would it perhaps be appropriate, then, to direct compliments to me via PM?

[ElizabethSewall]

Shall the Questions Only thread ignore you, then?

[RobinHood3000]

Has it ever been required to pay attention to me? Besides, wouldn't it be harder to address compliments in the form of questions?

[ElizabethSewall]

Are you questionning the LitNet members' skills?

[Virgil]

By which part shall we begin our praises?
Why is it that you don't answer that, Robin?

[RobinHood3000]

Don't I always, Elizabeth? And don't they usually prove me wrong?

Could it be because the compliments have already begun pouring in, Virgil?

[Virgil]

Didn't Robin see my compliment to him in the What Is Your Image of Others thread?

[smilingtearz]

Now, aren't we ignoring the camel? Shouldn't we compliment the camel too?

[AimusSage]

Does the camel work in waste disposal management?

[smilingtearz]

would it be of any help to empty the gold vessel? Would you ask the camel to help you(us) mr. strong guy? :D

[AimusSage]

Do you want the gold to go to waste?

[smilingtearz]

can we store it in the camel's hump? Does robin have a hump too :p?

[Weeping Willow]

Why would you want to store it?

[Riesa]

If you stored it in the camel's hump, wouldn't it get all bloody?

[Weeping Willow]

doesn't a camel hump filled with fat?

[Riesa]

Isn't it full of water, fat, blood and skin?

[TBtheG]

I always thought it was full of candy, but what do I know?

[Weeping Willow]

isn't that a pinieta?

[Riesa]

Do you think the camel would appreciate it if we cut off his hump, filled it with jujubees, hung it from a tree and hit it with a bat?

[Weeping Willow]

wouldn't it hurt?

[Riesa]

Hurt who? The camel? Wouldn't it scare the kids when it finally burst and all the fat, water, blood and candy came spilling out?

[RJbibliophil]

Does anyone else around here like Riesas new avatar?

[AimusSage]

Why would it scare the kids? Aren't they the ones molesting the camels hump with their bats?

[RobinHood3000]

What is it with you people and humps?

[TBtheG]

What do you have against the humps, what did they ever do to you man?

[Virgil]

Did anyone else notice the long skinny legs that Robin has to go with that hump and camel mouth?

[Riesa]

Didn't you forget to mention the empty space on his face where the nose should be?


(I really imagine Robin to be the most dashing of young men, with luxurious hair, a beautiful visage and cutting a handsome figure, don't you?)

[Virgil]

(I really imagine Robin to be the most dashing of young men, with luxurious hair, a beautiful visage and cutting a handsome figure, don't you?)
Not only that, he's such an upright young man, quite unlike the youths (Or as we say in Brooklyn, Utes.) of today.

But doesn't he have a tongue that stretches one foot long?

[Riesa]

Who else could have a foot long tongue, a camel mouth, a missing nose and skinny legs,?

Is that why he's such an upright young man, because of those legs? And is he uptight because of the hump?

[Virgil]

Who else could have a foot long tongue, a camel mouth, a missing nose and skinny legs,?

Is that why he's such an upright young man, because of those legs? And is he uptight because of the hump?
That is so funny! :lol:

How come no one has yet mentioned his tail?

[Riesa]

(I need a 'take a bow' smilie, or a 'curtsy' smilie rather)

That's a tail?

:lol:

[Virgil]

What do you think would happen if you pulled Robin's tail?

[Riesa]

Would it be the same thing as if you pulled his finger?

[Virgil]

:lol: I guess I'm giggly this evening.


Did anyone try to pull his foot long tongue?

[Riesa]

Would it make his tail roll up? Can you picture that?

Could you even see it for the hump?

[Virgil]

You're too funny tonight. :lol:

How about we saddle up young Robin?

[Riesa]

http://www.diamondtalk.com/forums/images/smilies/84/smallbow.gif

Do they make hump-shaped saddles?

[Virgil]

Don't they have saddles for camels?

Good night Riesa. I got to get some sleep. :yawnb:

[Riesa]

Yeah, for camels, but for Robin?

Good night, me too. :wave:

[RobinHood3000]

What is WRONG with you people???

[AimusSage]

Would not a better question be to ask what's wrong with you? Aren't you the one who has a hump, a tail, no nose, skinny legs, a camel mouth and a foot long tongue? :D ;)

[Weeping Willow]

So what is robin when you sum it all up?

[smilingtearz]

Isn't he cute?

[RobinHood3000]

What say thee, Eva?

[Mililalil XXIV]

Should we - you, Robin and I - all just go our separate ways and make a night of it?

[Virgil]

But who is going to unsaddle Robin?

[RobinHood3000]

Where's Elizabeth?

[ElizabethSewall]

Am I supposed to unsaddle you, Milord? :eek:

[RobinHood3000]

Are you equal to the task?

[ElizabethSewall]

Am I not an expert?

[blondeatheart]

Do you know what you're doing?

[RobinHood3000]

How many ways are there to find out?
