[optimisticnad]

Doesn't the idea of tofu make u want to vomit? Wouldn't just the chocolate frosting on its own without the tofu b better ?

[Madhuri]

Why dont we have tofu, it sure is healthy? :)

[kathycf]

Yes, tofu is healthy, but did you know it has a flavor similiar to really stale cardboard?

[RobinHood3000]

Cardboard gets stale?

[kathycf]

Doesn't everyone know that??! :p

[Madhuri]

Why dont we all join Aimus, he is hosting a dinner for all litnet members, at the Ritz. ;)

[AimusSage]

I am? Since when? Wasn't it supossed to be just you and me?

[serafina]

Can newbies join in too?

[AimusSage]

join in with what?

[serafina]

Whatever you say? Isn't that the attitude us newbies desperate for your approval should take?

[AimusSage]

shouldn't newbies just participate in whatever they like whenever they like?

[serafina]

Are you sure we are allowed?:rolleyes: :D

[AimusSage]

Don't you think I'll have to check first?

[kathycf]

May I say hello to newbie serafina? :)

May I offer some advice? Did you know you should watch out for AimusSage, because he is quite the interrogator? :brow: :p

( how lucky am I that he is also a good sport? ):D

[Madhuri]

Dont you think it will be nice if everyone joined? Including the newbies, It will be like a litnet family get together :D
Can you believe I have agreed without even asking why are you interrogating me in the first place? :rolleyes: So, when are you sending the invitations? :D

[Pendragon]

The Ritz? Do you realize how long it takes to get a Knight dressed in formal wear? Do you know that my squire is sobbing right now just thinking about it? And I am a Pendragon, of Royal Lineage, don't you know?

[Madhuri]

To go for a dinner at the Ritz, I can get ready in 5 mins :D Dont you think that is quite an achievement for a girl?? :D :D I am sure you'll get ready in time Pen. :D

[Pendragon]

Royalty, my dear Maddie, does not get ready for anything you see the problem? We have to be made ready by overtly fusy valets, who make certain that every detail is just right before they will let us out of the house for the night, you understand? It's ghastly, really, I probably should have taken mother's advice and kept my lineage secret, but, no, I have to open my mouth and now I am a virtual prisioner of my own servants, can you believe that? Do you know that I wish I had left that bloody sword in that stone?

[Madhuri]

I bow to thee :lol: Do you think Aimus will be willing to give you enough time to get ready for the dinner?? I am sure he would want to make it real royal :lol:

[Nightshade]

because hes the king? Dont you know his reputation for runing away screaming from functions?

[Pendragon]

Would that be Aimus or myself that runs from these-- FOR THE LAST TIME, NO, I AM NOT GOING TO SHOW UP IN A CLOAK TRIMMED IN SNOW-LEOPARD FUR! BARBARIAN! Excuse me there. Uh, or myself that runs from these parties?

[Madhuri]

Are you suggesting that we should take one member less that evening??

[kathycf]

Nope all should come, but I feel we should just dress very casual, don't you think?

[Nightshade]

Am I invited??

[AimusSage]

Did I mention that the dinner is on the house? Don't you love it when you know the owner?

Does anyone else think I'm a cheapskate? :D

[Madhuri]

Casual?? I am not sure, is there a dress code at such fancy places??

[AimusSage]

Is it irrational of me to demand everyone to come dressed in clothes woven entirely with gold thread?

[Madhuri]

No absolutely not, :rolleyes: we do have our own gold mines and that shan't be any problem. Are there any other rational demands?? :brow:

[AimusSage]

Can we have a large ball after the dinner, where everyone is required to dance, including Night?

[Madhuri]

Why ask me??? You are the host. :)

[AimusSage]

Is the host required to hold a speech?

[Madhuri]

Do you want your guests to flee in the middle of the party? :lol:

[RJbibliophil]

Shall I plan on attending? When shall this social function take place?

[kathycf]

Why must we wear clothes woven of gold thread?

Isn't Aimus being incredibly demanding?

Oh wait dinner is free? :idea: Ok, fine...shall I pick up my gold dress at the cleaners then?

[AimusSage]

Do you think I should allow jewelry if it doesn't have at least 20 karats worth of diamonds?

[kathycf]

20 carats? Don't you think that will be gaudy? :p

[AimusSage]

What do you say to a masquerade ball instead?

[kathycf]

Maybe...can I wear a sheet over my head like a ghost instead of a mask?

[AimusSage]

Do you want to be Caspar or another scarier ghost?

[Nightshade]

Can we have a large ball after the dinner, where everyone is required to dance, including Night?

SO I am included then? And dont you already know my opnion on me and dancing?
Is there cheeecake?
Who are you having for security? arent all thesegold dresses a safty risk? and wont they be heavy?
CanT come in a dress of moonshine?
Does any one want ear plugs for aimus's speach?
Are the martain council invited? Do yo have green goo?

[Madhuri]

Is the dress code mandatory for all?? Will the guys also wear gold thread dress and diamonds?? :lol:

I am afraid Night everyone will have to dance, :D and if you want we'll close our eyes. :nod:

[Nightshade]

Why would I want that? But why really diamonds with the gold? WOuldnt that weigh everyone down?
Unlesss can I wear white gold?

[Madhuri]

Maybe we should all come in our traditional attires, what do you say??

[subterranean]

Why can't we just use any costum we want?

[RobinHood3000]

How about I just show up in my usual garb?

<------

[subterranean]

Don't you want to look different in certain occasion?

[RobinHood3000]

Couldn't I just change forms once I got there?

[subterranean]

Why? Not confident enough? ;)

[RobinHood3000]

Confident about what? :confused: Besides, if I were to "accidentally" lose my clothes in the shifting process, wouldn't that make me instantly the center of attention?

[Madhuri]

Will this 'accident' be a deliberately planned incident?? what some celebrities are used to doing often ;)

[Pendragon]

Gold, eh? Hold those clothes then, Squire, what say I go in Dragon form? Plenty of gold cloth in the hoard for a cape, and Aimus wants high-quality gems, eh? Hee-Hah! Masquerade ball, I believe? A man who can become a dragon at will is masquerading isn't he?

[Madhuri]

Why do you have to throw so many tantrums, Pen? You are so fussy :lol:

[Nightshade]

Gems? Do sparkling smilies count? how long does it take you to brush your hair maddie :rolleyes: ?

[Madhuri]

Can you believe I hardly take time in getting ready?? :lol: and I like the sparkling smilies idea :nod:

[Nightshade]

Could the host turn up and give us some hints? Why do I have to dance? cant I just watch? Does Martian knives Inc make cameras?
:p

[Madhuri]

Are you scared that Martian Inc people will take pictures of you while dancing? :lol:

[Nightshade]

Why would I be scared of that? II live in a martian museum dont I? What if I said I wanted to BUY a camera ?

[AimusSage]

why would you need to buy a camera when any of the tourists visiting the museum would gladly give you theirs in exchange for a picture with you and them?

[thevintagepiper]

Wouldn't that be beside the point of them taking the picture? Or is that YOUR point?

[RJbibliophil]

Dancing? What sort of orchestra/ensemble will be playing?

[AimusSage]

Don't martians have any picture they take with their camera automatically downloaded into their brain?

Didn't I mention the Martian Philharmonic will be in attendance?

[Nightshade]

Martian Philharmonic? Who are they? will I like their music?
Have you made sure that we have both edible and inedbile glasses, for the Martians?

[optimisticnad]

did you know you can PM yourself??????? Guess who just did that because they were bored???

[Nightshade]

who??? can you really great! hey that means I can send myself reminders todo things doesnt it?

[Madhuri]

Will you be sending reminders to yourself, if you get bored?? Does that count as a fun activity??? Really??? :lol:

[AimusSage]

Why not post reminders for all to see? Don't you think others will help you remember? could someone please remind me of the following 'remember to pick your nose' before 8 PM?

[Madhuri]

Do you want that reminder to be seen by everybody??? You mean everybody :lol: Dont you want some things not to be reminded at all??? like waking up in the morning :D

[AimusSage]

What wrong with it? Do you think it is to indecent for the youngest members? :)

[Madhuri]

Are you saying you are the youngest member???!!! *rolling with laughter* :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[AimusSage]

How can I be the youngest member? Is it possible to age backwards, like Merlin did?

Speaking of reminders, could someone please be so kind and remind me to wake up in the morning? :p

[Madhuri]

Why dont you ask some of your expert Martian scientists?? Maybe they can help you with the reminders :D

Yes, i'll remind you, only if I am awake :D :D So, will you remind me, to remind you to wake up in the morning?? :lol:

[RJbibliophil]

But surely a reminder for Aim's gala ball won't be necessary? Won't he remember? Must I wear my dress of gold thread, or will my gown of fine silver trimmed with diamonds do?

[subterranean]

Why all this fuss about being glamorous?

[kathycf]

Shouldn't there be a dress code for a ball as festive as this one?

[thevintagepiper]

Does that take a little bit of creative originality out of it? Shouldn't we just all decide what we want to wear and since it's a ball, it will probably end up being glamorous anyway, but in our own personal ways? Or should it just be up to the host after all?

[Pendragon]

Who's fussy? I wasn't the one who planned the party, was I? I am more of a "come as you are" so long as you aren't in the bath or shower, decently dressed don't you know? Probably throw the gala outside as well, somewhere where the water whispers secrets over the rocks and the wind sighs through the leaves of the trees, not in a stuffy room where you have to act so proper, understand? The theme would be "I Gotta Be Me." Everyone could surely relate to that, right? ;)

[optimisticnad]

How you all doing? Isn't great to see you're all having fun talking about reminders and PM all thanks to me??? Is anyone getting tired of putting EVERYTHING in questions??? Isn't it fun? Doesn't it drive you mad that you find this fun? Don't we all need to get what all the teens say nowadays: a life??

[RJbibliophil]

Isn't coming dressed like our personality dictates a good idea?

[Madhuri]

Are we invited?? Or are we all making castles in the air??

[AimusSage]

Aren't the doors open already?

[Nightshade]

Are there doors? Or is it floating in the sky so we come up through the floor?

[AimusSage]

Why don't you just use the beaming platforms?

[kilted exile]

Why are the platforms smiling?

[AimusSage]

Wouldn't you like it if all sorts of people step on you?

[Nightshade]

err shouldnt they be frowning? Or saying please wipe yourfeet? ooh youve got to be joking!?

[Pendragon]

Beaming platforms? As in "Beam me up, Scotty"? Heavens man, what a way to travel, spilling a man's molecules all over the place and hoping that they somehow come back together OK at the other bloody end, that kind of thing? Don't you realize that a transporter destroys the original and that the person that arrives at the other end, same memories, looks, whatever, is not the same person!? Why don't you ask Bones McCoy? :brow:

[AimusSage]

Don't you know this isn't star trek? Don't you think this reality differs greatly from the startrek universe, which is just filled with oldfashioned thinkers, who don't look anywhere but to their own rear end?

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't it likely that your question previous to your previous question held remarkable similarities to the show Pendragon mentioned?

If this reality is in fact not the StarTrek one, which one do you think it is?

[AimusSage]

Isn't it the Asgard beaming technology?

[ShoutGrace]

What leads you to suspect that?

[AimusSage]

Wasn't I the one who oversaw the installation of the beaming platforms?

[ShoutGrace]

Didn't one of my confidantes inform me that your were drunk at the time? Wouldn't this knowledge cast doubt as to whether or not you have any actual insight into the nature of the platforms?

[AimusSage]

Are you saying that I was the one responsible for the delays, and not those little grey guys with the big brains? Would you believe me if I told you this is very likely the case? :)

[ShoutGrace]

Can I not consider you laudable for your open admission of your less than stellar work habits?

[AimusSage]

Don't you think my workhabits are exactly why they made me overseeer? Isn't it far more likely they just ignored anything I said, and whenever I helped out, needed days to repair the damage?

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't it hard to imagine how this company managed to stay in business while employing people with potation abuse histories?

How could you helping out be so damaging?

[AimusSage]

Do you think telling me not to press the red button was a smart thing to do?

[ShoutGrace]

Was I wrong in assuming that the aforementioned command was a type of reverse pyschology? Didn't the red button activate the elevator music on the third floor of the building across the street?

[AimusSage]

It did? How does that explain the rather large elephant that dropped out of the sky when I pressed it the first time? Could this be the reason the button had 'randomize' inscribed on it?

[ShoutGrace]

It certainly seems like a valid explanation, does it not?!?

And yet I have to ask, as your response implies it; What happened the second time you pressed the randomize button?

[AimusSage]

Can I please not tell due to it being somewhat of an embarrasing moment? :blush:

[ShoutGrace]

Would this "embarrassing moment" have anything to do with why you showed up for work yesterday with a large bruise on your nose and an oversized cup on your genital region?

[AimusSage]

are you spying on me? Isn't what you just said frighteningly accurate? :eek2:

[ShoutGrace]

Do I not get regular updates from my high powered GPS satellite system concerning your health and / or improprieties?

[kathycf]

What about me, are you getting your updates on me? ;)
Shall I stop chewing with my mouth open then?

Hi everybody, whats up? :)

[ShoutGrace]

Are you as interesting as Aimus? Do you come to work blitzed and wearing an oversized cup on your genitalia?

(How are you today, Kathy?) :nod:

[kathycf]

Am I as interesting as Aimus?
Hmm, can't we be equally interesting, even though I don't go anywhere with an oversized cup on any portion of my anatomy? :lol:

Wait, do brasserieres count? :p

( I am fine, David, and you? :) )

[ShoutGrace]

Wait, do brasserieres count? :p


Aren't we feeling fiesty (read naughty) today? :D


( I am fine, David, and you? :) )

Would you believe me if I told you that I'm looking forward for this day (night) to end for me?

[kathycf]

Don't you think I can be both bawdy and prim? :p

Why do you want the day to end?

[RobinHood3000]

Haven't you PROVEN you can be rather bawdy and still a little prim? :brow:

[ShoutGrace]

Don't you think I can be both bawdy and prim? :p

Do you not believe that I trust you in all paradoxical endeavors?

[kathycf]

Really, David? ;)

@Robin..
Have I? :brow: :D

How are you doing Robin?

[Pendragon]

Ya let a moll stick her picture up, and right away she turns bawdy on ya, thinks she's Marilyn Monroe or sumpthin', ya know? Sheesh! what is it wit these dames these days? :brow:

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't that something we are all trying to figure out?

[Pendragon]

It's kinda a hopeless endeavor, isn't it? :p

[AimusSage]

Must one not simple cast away all logic so understanding shall come naturally?

[kathycf]

Are you saying dames, er skirts...um women are hard to figure out?
Whatever gives you men that idea? :lol:

[ShoutGrace]

Haven't men always been able to make accurate observations about broads?

[miss tenderness]

to for Grace's question :yes!:D

[Madhuri]

What all observations can men make about women??? :brow:

[ShoutGrace]

Do you really think, after all these years of fruitlessly trying to relate these observations, it will really do men any good to try again here?

[Madhuri]

Would you agree if I say, women get all the attention all the time, and can get away with anything, with just a sweet innocent smile?? :D

[ShoutGrace]

Doesn't that idea conform to the way history has unfolded?

[Pendragon]

That's the problem, ya see, I can tell when a bloke is lying through his teeth in my face, but the sweet, oh so innocent smile of a dame, and I don't know what she's selling, so what's a guy supposed to do, huh? ;)

[AimusSage]

Can I be so bold as to disagree with you Madhuri, that an innocent smile, no matter how lovely, will not see a girl get away with anything?

[Madhuri]

How will you find out whats behind that lovely smile???

[AimusSage]

can I not simply ask to find out?

[Weeping Willow]

isn't it the purpose of this game?

[Madhuri]

Do you think you'll be able to find out with jus' that?? Is it that simple??

[ShoutGrace]

Surely you aren't saying that it's not?

[Weeping Willow]

shouldn't it be easy? what is the point in making things hard?

[Madhuri]

Isnt it the whole point, that its not easy to understand women? And guys for sure have a tough time trying to make it simple :D :D

[Pendragon]

Who's gonna understand women? Do you know I've been married for nearly 27 years and I still can't figure them out? :lol:

[Weeping Willow]

do you think it is possible?

[kathycf]

Could one not say that men are just as confusing to many of us females?

And may I add I also have a sweet smile, but am a terrible liar because it makes me feel sad to lie, thus making it easy for anyone to know when I am lying...is this a terribly long run on sentence????:p

[AimusSage]

What if I were to ask a woman, and she says 'oh, nothing', does that not automatically mean there is something? Doesn't a simple line of questions reveal many things?

Have I ever said it is easy though? :)

[kathycf]

Maybe it depends on the woman?

[Weeping Willow]

should we check if you said ?

[AimusSage]

what if I agree it depends on the woman? Is fully understanding a woman not a myth though? What hides deep inside the mind of a woman? Isn't finding out the goal very different from figuring out the ultimate motive?

[ShoutGrace]

Doesn't mushy gray matter hide deep inside women's brains?

[kathycf]

Well may I state again that men can be mystifying themselves? :lol:

[optimisticnad]

Mystifying...mmmm? Pray, tell, how?

[AimusSage]

Not me, I'm pretty much straight up simple and clear, right?

[optimisticnad]

Oh my King, why do you put yourself down? I'm sure there is an earthling who will disagree and find you charming and mystifying, right?

[ShoutGrace]

Why would an earthling know of Aimus? He lives on Mars and eats turnips, two activities which are not very condusive to social interaction, wouldn't you agree?

[AimusSage]

How would I know living on mars with the sun on my face? Is it unrealistic of me to think there is indeed an earthling that finds me at least somewhat charming and mystifying? Can you give direction to this earthling so I might abduct her and show her around on Mars? :D

[ShoutGrace]

What makes you automatically assume it's a female? Blind, naive optimism?

[optimisticnad]

ha ha ha, i've waited so long to put king in his place, being his 'subject' I haven't had the guts but uv done a terrific job hot grace, hasnt she everyone?

[AimusSage]

Did I assume anything? Was I not merely hoping it was a female?

David, since when did you become a female? Are you perhaps the earthling that finds me charming and mystifying? :lol:

[ShoutGrace]

:lol: :lol:


You may have been hoping, but "earthling" is a wide spectrum, isn't it?

[optimisticnad]

oops. sorry, yep hes male cos i remeber something about a ladies man in relation to grace. its ur damn avatar, so hot and confusing!

[AimusSage]

Why didn't I think of 'earthling' in more general terms before?
Could it be one of the turnip-cat hybrids? :)

[ShoutGrace]

oops. sorry, yep hes male cos i remeber something about a ladies man in relation to grace. its ur damn avatar, so hot and confusing!


Do you feel dirty now?


Why didn't I think of 'earthling' in more general terms before?
Could it be one of the turnip-cat hybrids? :)

Are those the kinds of beings who would find you charming?

[optimisticnad]

[QUOTE=ShoutGrace;258283]Do you feel dirty now?

:blush:

[RobinHood3000]

Is this thread going someplace it ought not to go?

[optimisticnad]

spot on robin, why dont you shoot em with your arrows and remove all doubt?

[RobinHood3000]

Shoot who?

[optimisticnad]

isn't it obvious? shoutgrace for a start and than why not move to the King of Mars-and then itl bew the first ever crisis on Mars: King Assassinated by Earthling dressed as Robin Hood???

[AimusSage]

Are those the kinds of beings who would find you charming?
Have you not previously crushed all my hope of it being a female of the human species?

[ShoutGrace]

Am I really the one to blame for that?!? :lol:

[optimisticnad]

course u r, how can u even ask? :-)

[AimusSage]

Are you saying someone else is to blame? Who else could crush my hopes as good as you? :D :lol:

[Madhuri]

Can it be the false assumptions that you made crushed all your hopes?? You can blame those :D

[AimusSage]

Who said my assumptions were false? :p

[Madhuri]

Strange creatures from different planets find the king of Mars charming, are you not the one? :lol:

[AimusSage]

Which planets would it be from where those strange creatures hail?

[Weeping Willow]

Which planet you think?

[Madhuri]

Dont you think, they would be from outside the planet LitNet?

[AimusSage]

Are you refering to that mythical planet, you know, 'real life'?

[Weeping Willow]

you think she is going to answer that?

[AimusSage]

Could it be she is on this mythical planet?

[Weeping Willow]

you think?

[Pendragon]

So what you are saying, Aimus, is that there isn't life after LitNET? Like I'm in Limbo or something out here? :idea:

[AimusSage]

You telling me you're not? Could it be that there are entire worlds out there left untouched by me?

[Jay]

Why do you think every world would want to be touched by you?

[Weeping Willow]

you think Aimus is able of thinking?

[Jay]

You think it's safe thinking about Aimus's thinking ability?

[Pendragon]

Aimus can touch worlds? I would say we should question his thinking ability, don't you agree?

[AimusSage]

Are all of you saying you can't touch worlds? Isn't it a great honour for a world to be touched by someone not native of the world?

[Weeping Willow]

Are you saying he is Crazy?

[Jay]

Are you saying he isn't?

[Weeping Willow]

should you what?

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't it best to state the obvious?

[AimusSage]

What so bad about being crazy?

[Weeping Willow]

You think i'm Crazy???

[ShoutGrace]

Is this thread not the greatest evidence for sanity available to humans?

[Jay]

What does this thread and sanity have in common?

[ShoutGrace]

Exactly nothing, right? :nod: It's like the Mad Hatter's statement in RabidReaders signature, isn't it?

[AimusSage]

But isn't the ability to ask sensible questions a prerequisite for participating in this thread?

[ShoutGrace]

Could not the questions be sensible, but the medium through which they are asked entirely mad?

[Jay]

Isn't sanity overrated anyway?

[AimusSage]

Is it possible to rate sanity?

[ShoutGrace]

Am I not putting myself at personal risk by answering that honestly?

[Madhuri]

Can someone honestly answer, why honesty is required in replying to anything?? :p :D

[Weeping Willow]

Do you like lairs?

[Madhuri]

Wouldn't you like harmless lies?

[Weeping Willow]

you think i would?

[Madhuri]

Why would you not? after all only harmless lies are told :D

[kathycf]

Wouldn't that depend on the scope of the falsehood being told?

[ShoutGrace]

Or could it not also depend on the intended end result of the falsehood?

[adilyoussef]

And could falshood depend on it as well?

[ShoutGrace]

Isn't it great how a little examination can clear up these complex moral issues?

[AimusSage]

Who knows what sort of effect 'harmless' lies can have on the greater cosmic region when put under closer examination by scientist that have nothing better to do?

[ShoutGrace]

Doesn't the object then become to preoccupy those bored scientists?

[AimusSage]

And as such do these scientist not fail to see the obvious answer to a real danger they only see too late, because they are so preoccupied with the 'harmless' lies?

[ShoutGrace]

And what, you know I must now ask, is this very real danger, sir?

Perhaps they should have been looking a little bit closer at the extra terrestrial side of things?

[adilyoussef]

What question should I answer between these two that you've asked?

[ShoutGrace]

Haven't you already answered you own question? :nod:

[adilyoussef]

Which one, for I've asked many?

[RobinHood3000]

Haven't we all?

[RJbibliophil]

Is it better to examine or to cross-examine?

[subterranean]

In what case?

[Madhuri]

In the case where there could be a case but actually there is no case, should we examine or cross examine that case ? Does it appear confusing ? :D

[ShoutGrace]

I think the most important things to cross examine would be those scurvy slimeballs that renounce turnips as a lifestyle choice, don't you?

[kathycf]

Don't you think anti-pirate nonturnipers are even more scurvy than the scurviest of blasted seadogs?

[ShoutGrace]

Yaaaaaaaar? Does not your syntax be off, matey? Blasted seadogs? Does not, 'ye seadogs be blasted' be better? :nod:

[kathycf]

Be that as it may, don't you know better than to be questioning yer elders, ye scurvy lad?!!!:p

[ShoutGrace]

Am I not a pirate? Have I any more consideration for wenches or squires that have been alive longer than I have than wenches or squires that haven't? :D

[kathycf]

May I be sayin' hale to ye then, Jim-Lad?

[Pendragon]

Ach, th' Pirates! Ye couldnae let puir Auld Arrow rest when he went willingly back t' Davy Jones' Locker, an' left th' lot of ye alone? Must ye dredge up me auld bones again, t' haunt th' scurvy lot o' ye? Faith, an' I were jest gettin' comf'tle loike on me bed o' seaweed, why'd ye have to go an' wake me up? http://www.celebrity9.com/img/johnny-depp/johnny-depp.jpg

[kathycf]

Don't ye know it be "Talk like a pirate day" ? ;)

[Pendragon]

Blast yer boots, lassie, dinnae ye ken I were restin' fine, but nay, ye maun fire a broadside into me fo'castle an' dredge up th' Ghost O' The Dastardly, wan what sailed under Cap'n Stan (ater me death at th' hands o' Long John aboard th' Hispanola, o'course) didn't ye?

[kathycf]

Why don't ye leave me boots be and celebrate this fine day, ye saltydog?

(Do you know that is a high honor in piratese to be called a saltydog?)

[Madhuri]

Ach, th' Pirates! Ye couldnae let puir Auld Arrow rest when he went willingly back t' Davy Jones' Locker, an' left th' lot of ye alone? Must ye dredge up me auld bones again, t' haunt th' scurvy lot o' ye? Faith, an' I were jest gettin' comf'tle loike on me bed o' seaweed, why'd ye have to go an' wake me up? http://www.celebrity9.com/img/johnny-depp/johnny-depp.jpg

Can you believe, I find this language difficult to comprehend? Oh, when will this pirate language speaking day end? When will everyone come back to normal?

[kathycf]

Yaarh??! The wench be anti-pirate, eh? :p

(sorry, Madhuri...did you know I just can't help myself? ;) )

[ShoutGrace]

It is quite peculiar that speaking in piratical brouge should be so intoxicating, is it not?

[Pendragon]

Sorry, Maddie, but do you know that my character, Auld Arrow, speaks not only like a shipmate, but a Scottish man? Have you ever read Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson? Auld Arrow would be Mr. Arrow, the one the pirates killed and threw overboard long before they got to the island, understand? I turned him into a ghost during the ship wars, as The Ghost of The Dasdardly and liked the character, and tell you the truth, do you know it's almost as hard to write brogue as it is to understand it? :lol:

[Madhuri]

Why are we doing so many difficult things then? Why not make things simple?

[kathycf]

Well, maybe we would start out simple and then get more complicated as the day wore on?

[ShoutGrace]

Why not keep everything as simple as possible? We do we need to incorporate complex situations?

[kathycf]

We do we need to incorporate complex situations?
David, did you mean to say "why" or "when" for that second "we"? ;)
Or maybe you are being deliberately cryptic, is that it?

Who do I think I am pointing out the supposed errors of others when maybe I should look at my own? :p Am I not assuming something that may in fact be incorrect?

If things always started out simple, do you think that the US Declaration of Independance would begin with a sentence like : "When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation." ? Why not, "Yo man, we're sick of this; we're outta here!"? :lol:

Was it not obvious that the alleged error in my post, if in fact it is an error, should rightly be indicative of my desire to underhandedly relate to you why things should be kept simple?

In fact, couldn't that post be understood as being deeper and of a slightly more profound nature than the criticism it received?

[Pendragon]

Why are you tediously monotonous in revealing modicum by minute microscopic flyspeck each depressing factual element of your query? :yawnb:

[RobinHood3000]

...eh? :confused:

No...really? ;)

It becomes difficult when someone uses a Thesaurus to talk a foreign language, doesn't it? I was merely asking: Why bore us with details? :lol:

[Madhuri]

Why do I have to do anything at all? Why cant I sleep the whole weekend?

[ShoutGrace]

Wouldn't that be detrimental to all of us? Wouldn't we miss your presence? :D

[Madhuri]

Do you mean me? Why does Shout has to write sentences full of so much meaning??

[ShoutGrace]

Don't you deserve meaningful sentences? Would I impart upon you anything less?

[Madhuri]

This is not some philosophy thread, and I have revised the meaning of this thread. Now it says, ask only easy questions, that have ONLY ONE meaning. :D Am I sleepy?????

[AimusSage]

Is that a trick question?

[ShoutGrace]

It sounds tricky doesn't it? Perhaps she was asking herself?

[AimusSage]

why does she ask it herself if she doesn't know the answer? If she knows the answer, why ask in the first place?

[Madhuri]

Cant someone look for answers from within? Why do you guys have to make so much fuss?? :rolleyes:

[kathycf]

Isn't that what guys do best? ;)

[RobinHood3000]

Us? Don't you mean YOU??

[AimusSage]

Who is making a fuss here? Isn't it obvious it's the girls making all the fuss?

[kathycf]

Am I really to infer that Madhuri and I are making a fuss?
