Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
The Skunkupines, stunned and shaken, slowly gather their wits. As the aftermath of RD's preemptive strike sinks in, they begin to seeth with rage and huddle to strategize. Beedy little eyes occasionally peer up over the huddled mass of odorous quills....
Quietly, off in a corner near the closet, a rather large Skunkupine sits up and shakes clarity back into his head. He eyes the ajar closet door, and upon hearing a faint moan eminate from Ashton within it's dark confines gets to his feet and slowly wanders towards the closet again with an unnerving gleam in his eyes.... |
Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
(Shimmmmerrrrrr....pop!)
Arriving upon an empty barstool in the usual manner, from his lair deep within the Mandelbrot set, Cipher7071 examines the scene. "Aaaah... Barkeep, Some ale in a well-sealed bottle for me, I think. My sense of smell has never been very good, but this really is appalling. Isn't there something we can do?" |
Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
Renegade regains consciousness after falling asleep for quite some time. Shaking his head groggily, he moans and says:
"Nooooooooo! I don't wanna go to work!" Then with an amazing feat of ingenuity, skill and artificially enhanced muscles, he leaps into the rafters then through the roof. But not before leaving one message for the patrons... "I'll be back tomorrow! You'll never see the last of me, you can never defeat me! My megalomania will smother you all in a stifling layer of arrogant egotistical large words! Muahahaha...!" |
Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
What?, did the regrouping skunkupines scare everybody off?

Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
[i]The huddled mass of Skunkupines suddenly quiets, and then condenses a bit tighter. The long, spiny quills on the backs of each Skunkupine suddenly stand alarmingly erect and the prickly huddle slowly scurries towards the center of the room. Once there, a brief pause ensues and a single set of beady eyes peers over the mass and slowly studies the occupents of the room, taking note of the sudden departure of Renegade 13 & unexpected arrival of Cipher 7071 before popping back down into the awaiting Skunkupines. The huddled mass of odorous, barbed quills shuffles slightly to the right, then a bit to the left, then forward a tiny bit more. A series of quickly barked sounds is heard, and the circular mass begins to slowly rotate, increasing in speed with each step.....

Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
puke daintily picks himself up and balances on top of a chair. not to leave his comrades stranded in a potential kill-zone, he extends a pseudopod under Turin's table and absorbs the vomit into the greater-whole.
A slightly larger puke balances on top his chair. Turin is confused and astonishingly clean, but still under his table as the skunkupines spin across the floor like a dervish. |

Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
The slowly rotating mass of Skunkupines picks up speed, moving faster and faster and faster, until it appears as an odorous whirling tornado in the center of the room. A strange, low undulating sound begins to eminate from the spinning mass of quills...

Re: O\'s??
Renegade's jaw drops as he sees the venerable Growltigga enter the B&G, RHPC in hand. Shaking himself, he realizes that GT's long absence likely means he no longer has the desire to weild his weapon of anal agony. Sadly shaking his head, Renegade lays his head back on his table in the shadowy corner, waiting for mayhem to erupt again so he can acquire some free drinks while the proprietors are occupied http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: O\'s??
Dogscoff, glad to know you are up to your old tricks (hopefully still not begging for biscuits and peeing up lamp posts).
Dunno what we have missed. As far as I can see, the cantina has been full of North Americans bragging and chest beating and then falling over smashed after 2 weak fizzy urine-esque beers...... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smirk.gif Dont think any real British chaps have been holding up the European end of the stick in our absence http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif Now, where is that Renegade fellow? the Red Hot Poker Hand Cannon has had a few enhancements and I want to try them out http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/mad.gif |
Re: O\'s??
wow, yrs old already, doesn't seem that long ago that she graced the worlds with her presence, time sure flies, glad the family is well and your still your old rascally self http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
as for Gryphon and Saxon, I talk with saxon by email usually once or twice every 2 weeks or so. He has become a proud daddy of a little princess as well. He's keeping his head down over in Kenya, and is still playing games in between feedings and changing diapers. as for Gryphon, last I heard from him, he had been layed off from his job and was looking for a new one which was taking up a lot of his time. He also changed his handle to the GreyOne.. Hope you stick around for awhile, this place misses that red hot poker canon and the thrill of the T-Rex chase http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif and some of the new members have never had the experience of meeting you and your minions in hand to hand combat http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif |
Re: Not Quite THAT Poor!!
Certainly good to see old faces again. Or at least handles and icons. Also good to hear that the little Tiggerlings are doing well, and congratulations on the newest.
By all means, stick around a little while and chat and dispense mayhem. Sadly, the Gryph has been away for some time. |

Black Knyght, they was intended to be fighting words but I am surprised that they are taken so in California.
I have been to California a couple of times, and thought most Californians' ideas of violence was repeatedly poking each other in the genitalia with surf boards whilst worrying if they look cool doing so. You must admit however, that American beer is quite disgusting and does has the appearance and taste of carbonated wee wee (this is how we started the Gryphon & Growtigga thread all those years back). Mac, glad to know Saxon is well. Send him my regards when you next speak. Pity to hear about Greyone and his job position. Here's wishing him all the best. Knowing him, he will probably end up a senator. The hand cannon has been enhanced. The pokers now come with spiky balls and in a variety of flavours. You can have honey and mustard, BBQ, Moroccan chermoula, meditteraneoan lemon and organo (that's origano to you yanks) or marmite (that's for the brits) PS what the tarnation is "furrener"? |

Well, the old joke over here about Texans is that they are living proof that Native Americans had amourous relationships with buffalo and skunk!!
This is great. I have been back 3 minutes and already people are diving for cover and a hybrid Texan California (would that be a Texifornian?) is starting to square up. Anyone seen where I put that Byzantine horde of armoured killer mongooses? PS nobody seems to have mentioned the fluffy bunny waitresses for a long time? Have they quit or did Mac show them his interesting collection of slides of run down factories in Cleveland PPS noted also that no North American has taken issue with my remarks about the quality of US beer. Nice to see that the level of decorum and civility on this thread is such that people dont take umbrage at the TRUTH |

I'm American. I just happen to agree that pretty near all mass-produced American beer might just as well be p*** water http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif. Still, in recent years, there have sprung up a large number of local "micro-breweries," some of whom make very passable beverages. I hope the trend continues.

Re: Beer
(the following is an excerpt taken from a British underground clandestine newspaper)
... it has been found that the beer types here in England are actually not alchol at all but contain sassperella, discolored to look like beer or ale. It has been also noted that when those who partake of this conconction try the US or Canadian made booze, they grab their unmentionables and run to the nearest inner sanctum since their metabolizm is unable to dissolve the stronger median.... It goes on to say, that if you ever tasted or tryed sassperella then you know what British beer and ale taste like http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rant.gif signed.... The Tipsy Revolutionaries of England well now, could this be true... is this the real facts of what is going on across the atlantic???? hmmm, this calls for a UN investigation and possible sanctions against those who try to impart this upon an unsuspecting public..... |

Re: Beer
Well, lots of things to respond to here.
1 Well, it is probably true that the British Royal Family has got a rather mixed bag of genes, but then they have spent so long inter marrying with the other European royal families that it is not surprising, and whatever state they are in now, it is not anywhere near as bad as the inbreeding found in the southern states of the US (and I include Texas in that grouping); 2 Us Brits have the reputation of being the alcoholics of Europe so I can assure you that double shots of tequila (or whisky in our case) is not a problem; 3 I take the point on US micro-breweries. I have supped some fine ales from those in the US recently. I will qualify my general comment by referring to "mass produced American beers"; 4 Raging Deadstar - the rules on this forum would not let me comment on the restricted gene pool that is Cumbria, and in particular the amount of sheep DNA prevalent in said gene pool. Most people from Cumbria I know have intimate knowledge of who their grandsires and great grandsires are, and most of them are the same person (or sheep). It is enough to make even a Texan blush; and 5 please do not let Mac near the FBWs. The laundry bill from last time was horrible, and most of the FBw's were scarred for life. The smell didn't leave for months! PS Why you inbred, blue-blooded, pasty-faced, bucked-tooth, big-eared, hang-dog faced varmint In response, "inbred"? absolutely not "Blue blooded"? again, no royalty here although the option of boffing a princess would not be turned down (provided she was pretty with all her own teeth and with a trust fund) "pasty faced"? nope, got a tan from Mallorca "bucked toothed"? nope, I may be fat, ugly and bald but my dental work and hearing and eyesight is tip top "Big eared"? nope, they are normal (if deaf) "hang dog faced varmint"? nope, I am a happy soul and not a rodent at all |
Re: Beer
Well now, lets see about responding to this....
1) If you knew much about Texas, you'd know it isn't simply a "Southern State", but rather stands in a category all it's own. Texas is tougher, meaner, stronger, and more independent than ANY other state in the union. And as to inbred, no need to chase your cousin around when you can chase down a wildcat or a longhorn... 2) Given the overall "delicate" sensibilities of the European community, England's reputation as the "alocoholics of Europe" is feeble praise at best. I once spent two weeks at RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk (you never heard that from me...) and managed to try out a few Brit pubs there. Turned out they were simply social clubs for featherweight tipplers instead of anything like a real knock-down-and drag-out kinda Texas bar on a Saturday night. Most bars in Texas STILL ask you to check your gun in at the door... 3) Micro-Brews are for yuppies and connesieurs, not REAL folks. 4) Now I undestand why Cumbrians draw out their words, like Daaaaaaaaad, or Moaaaaaaaam.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif 5) You go Mac !!!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif and as for the rest, well - Ah did clar'fy that as bein' associated wit' them thar "royals" ya'll worship over thar.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif |

Re: Beer
Atrocities, I like that joke, I really do.
Texans, still think that their place is the biggest and best in the world and their idea of the epitome of culture and style is his 'n' hers possum skin bath mats "Any how, yessiree - a Texan is part buffalo, part polecat, part cougar, part tornado, part cactus, part horny toad ( heavy on the HORNY part ), and all fire and brimstone." So basically, you are hideously confused and with all the traits of some rather unpleasant and nasty flora and fauna! oh and you forgot to mention being part - braggard "Mess with the thunder of Texas and you'll call down the BOOM" Assuming that you are not using the dutch word for "tree", I anticipate that this is a reference to Texmex cuisine and its effect on the digestive system. So basically, upset your colon and we are all going to hear a resounding blast of broken wind (or was that already evidenced by the previous highlighted comment?) In summary, Texans seem to have most of their DNA from "ornery critters" and unpleasant atmospheric effects or flora, are prone to producing large amounts of stomach gas and have a tendency to bluster. Sounds about right actually |
