This And That

I just beat my 123rd game of Freecell today. In a row. Without loss.

I'm thinking of a new blog. Allow me to explain it in a metaphor.

In the beginning there was a rather pleasant site and it created the foundations of the earth. For the people to know its will, it created a holy text, Between the Lines. Then the Creator of all blogs looked out and saw all he had made was pretty satisfactory. Yet he lacked a passage for his voice to reach the people through anything but his creation. So was founded From Whence it Came. Then the Creator looked down, and saw it was good. All was not good however. rps began to fill with stories. Soon it would explode. Thus the Creator saw need for a repository of old works. Thusly does Stuff of Legend come into being.

SoL does exist, but is not yet open to the public. It will open as soon as its archival purposes are needed. Nothing will be taken off rps but as tags are removed for cleanliness' sake, SoL will put up the tales, with tags, to assist finding old favorites.



Figroth makes some good sprites.

Sometimes.

  1. That's actually a pretty good idea. Yay, Reogan!

  2. That last phrase should be rps's new slogan. You have 3 seconds to object. Go.

  3. I wouldn't object anyway, since I have no control over what goes up on the blog's description. I have to wonder how mad Met would be if you put that up, though...

  4. Let's find out! Consider it switched.

  5. Yeah, I saw that. :P Hopefully, he won't get mad at me again. That was bad enough the first time.

  6. I do my best to incite battles. I'm gifted that way.

  7. Oh, come on! I really don't even want to go there again! Please don't start anything?

  8. I can only promise not to end anything. More than that is beyond my control.

  9. *EXTREMELY heavy sarcasm* Thank you, Reogan; that's about the least helpful statement you could've made.

    ReplyDelete
  10. The least helpful would have been hate speech filled with racial slurs. This was the second least helpful. At worst.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Okay, I'll give you that. But still, it was extremely unhelpful to the situation.

  12. YES!!!!!!!!!!! I got you to concede a point!!!!!! Victory, my name is Elphaba!!!!!!! I think this is a first for me!!!

    (I am fully aware that using multiple exclamation points is not gramatically correct. I don't care.)

  13. Yet I point out the flaw anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Naturally; I wouldn't expect anything less.

    ReplyDelete
  15. For good reason.

    Also, I don't see that as optimal use of a semicolon.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Maybe not optimal, but not incorrect.

    ReplyDelete
  17. A waste of a perfectly good semicolon, though.

    ReplyDelete
  18. There is an infinite number of semicolons in the writing universe. They cannot be wasted, because there is always another one in supply. Plus, many people don't use them when they should, so consider mine an unused one.

    ReplyDelete
  19. FALSE! Semicolons are a rare and precious thing. Every use of one is equivalent to thirty-seven hours of Venezuelan child labor.


    Why do hate the children?





    Why?

    ReplyDelete
  20. "Why do hate the children?"?

    And that fact is FALSE! Venezuelan children do not have to work to produce semicolons! Where on earth do you get this stuff?!?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oops, typo! I meant, "Why do hate the children?" ???

    ReplyDelete
  22. See, now you're just showing your ignorance.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Anyone can make a typo. You did.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Disregard typos, you showed your ignorance of Venezuelan child labor.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Okay, so do Venezuelan children have to work in sweatshops to make commas? You use them all the time. (For that matter, so do I, but that isn't the point.)

    ReplyDelete
  26. No. Commas are carved from the cold bones of stillborn babies. Really, how are you so ignorant in these matters?

    ReplyDelete
  27. How do you make up this stuff? I'm disturbed and impressed at the same time.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Because I know how these things work. I am Reogan.

    ReplyDelete
  29. *rolls eyes* Wow, I should've seen that one coming.

    ReplyDelete
  30. ^Waste of time and conversation killer.
