Seanachai Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Originally posted by Persephone: Actually, the Gnome does have a plant in his apartment....it's some strange looking tropical plant carved out of wood. It sits on the shelf near the wooden eagle voodoo altar with the bowl of bones...which is across the room from the jackalope which proudly hangs on the wall...and if you go a little bit further you will find a shelf with a pink pig sitting on it...and when you get to the kitchen make sure you ask Joe to open the silverware drawer. And the Gnome does make good stew! Persephone It's a banana tree. And you forgot to mention its rather vibrant colours. And the wooden eagle is actually a three foot high chainsaw sculpture of an eagle perched on a large salmon. The whole thing weighs about 70 pounds. And the jackalope head has an arrow through it. And the pink pig is actually a 'bank' that stands some 18 inches high, and the pig is dressed in pastel golfing togs and holding a putter (that atrocity came to me from Ohio, by the way). These are only a few, if more dramatic, of the objet d'art casually displayed around my apartment. Over the years, whenever friends got massively drunk or had a traumatic drug experience that resulted in the purchase or acquisition of very odd, and often incredibly ugly, things, they have apparently woken up the next day and said 'Godalmighty! What the hell's that?! Let's take it over to Seanachai's and give it to him as a gift.' Like the hatred of the Combat Mission Forum members, I treasure these nightmarish, otherworldly bits of strangeness that come my way. The only real struggle is to find sufficient room for all of them to be properly displayed. I may have to someday move into a larger hovel. But I do make a damn fine stew. No one can deny that.

imported_mike_the_wino2 Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Per request, set-up sent to Lars. Seems like a nice enough lad. Drinks his fair share and might pose a challenge as I "probe" him over the next couple of weeks. I would hate him more but he harkens from Minnesota and Gawd knows Vikings fans have suffered enough over the years. I may take to hating him later, what with the "Rune" scenario suggestion and all. As it stands I will write it off as too much hooch and not enough proper spirits. I will endeavor to make milady, Y2K proud. Failing that I will fetch bottles from the cellar until such time she quits kicking me with pointy shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Boggs Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Very interesting! While the Peng Thread Police are out cracking heads in other Threads, this (most fabled and revered) Thread is allowed to slowly fade to the bottom. This is NOT acceptable!

Turn 4 on a tiny map and you still haven't shown up? I've got 75% of it in LOS, so I don't know where you might be. (And if you say "the other 25%" I will slap you sensless with a large mackeral.) Have you learned to hack into the game engine and even now, your cowardly troops are crossing on the underside of the map to come up behind me??? I could believe it of you, you annoying person. I was hoping you hadn't noticed those parachutes wafting gracefully above you. It takes a BIG parachute to drop a tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalem Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Okay, the Aussies around these parts told me that "get a furry dog up ya!" was some sort of insult.

MrSpkr Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 I don't think it is so much an insult as an instruction. Turns out when I get to them. dalem finally acceded to our demands (along with some plaintive whining about lacking AT assets). We are pleased with his decision.

I tried it on an Aussie acquaintance the other day and she'd never heard of it. Hmph. She was probably a properly brought up young lady who'd never previously been confronted with the concept of having a kangaroo used to conduct a proctologic exam. Although if she was properly brought up, I question how it is that you know her. We're not talking about a nice young woman from the Salvation Army who found you squatting on a curb in your bathrobe trying to recover your memories of the last few days, are we? I can imagine that you'd consider her a 'friend', since she'd be one of the few people who'd actually chosen to talk to you besides myself, Lars, and Papa Khann.

What the heck are we supposed to be 'aware' of? That there are farm animals? Or are Farm Animals supposed to be aware? The latter makes more sense. I can imagine them keeping an eye out for Mace, for one thing. Perhaps they have 'awareness' lectures instructing Farm Animals of the dangers of Aussies driving around in Utes wearing only t-shirts and no pants, offering them grain and trying to entice them into their vehicles?
