A quick question...

[[deleted user]]

What time period does the books take place? because sometimes it seems like old times and sometimes it seems modern!

[Squiggles{Kelly}, 'R' issss for 'goooorrrrgeousss'...]

i know! like the computer in the Austere Acadamy is the ONLY thing that makes me think it's early depression, late/mid 20's...

[[deleted user]]

yeah... it's just confusing!

[Emma the Dork, Mrs. Olaf]

i know! but like in the grim grotto there is a picture of the taxi and it looks totally old fashioned!!

[jeeves...]

i always thought like the sixties or seventies maybe.... i really dunno, though.... :/

[Emma the Dork, Mrs. Olaf]

lol the seventies....that would be funny. i can see sunny with an afro...

[Squiggles{Kelly}, 'R' issss for 'goooorrrrgeousss'...]

funny, tigger....i never thought that....>.<

[jeeves...]

ouch, not what i meant at all emma.... like.... whoa, no. not .... hmm.

[Swati]

hmm..well i never thought about it actually!!

[Emma the Dork, Mrs. Olaf]

i was kidding!!

[Tory]

I think that the time period is old times.

[jeeves...]

yeah, the question is how old though ;D

[[deleted user]]

yeah I thought it was pretty old until the part about that computer, but other than that it seems to take place a while ago...

[jeeves...]

maybe... maybe vice principle nero was a TIME TRAVELLER!!! :O

[jeeves...]

or whoever actually had the computer, i don't even rememberrr....

[Swati]

lol..

[Emma the Dork, Mrs. Olaf]

yeah it was nero but it was like a really old, non-internet computer that was all huge and chunky and stupid but i think it was supposed to be like a timeless, non-existent era because

A. like none of the stuff that happened in the books is actually possible

B. the car was really, really old looking. like as in the first cars

C. the way they dress

D. there was a computer


i think he sort of made one up.

[[deleted user]]

yeah, me 2

[jeeves...]

or.... EVERYBODY WAS A TIME TRAVELER! :O
or yeah, yours works too, emma... :P

[[deleted user]]

[[deleted user]]

[Squiggles{Kelly}, 'R' issss for 'goooorrrrgeousss'...]

yeah, i agree Emma, totally. i think he purposely threw in things like the computer so it couldn't be a specific place or time.

[Emma the Dork, Mrs. Olaf]

[Emma the Dork, Mrs. Olaf]

I'm thinking it's an alternate reality so there's no specific time period. ;) hehe. It's too quirky to be normal "earth".
