[Cheyenne]

I like it.

[Kyra]

Suits him.

[Stephanie]

Ah, Batman Begins. Good movie. I've actually been wanting to watch it lately. Maybe I'll do that lately.

[M]

Muse: Don’t you feel like your moderator title is kind of, well, private?
M: I suppose. Why?
Muse: Don’t you think the crew should respect that?
M: I get a very nervous feeling whenever you give me those big eyes.

Yours is fantastic, Al.

Actually, a title is something that people recognize you by, M's Muse, so technically it's the opposite of private.

[Edward]

Unless your title is Private, that is.

[M]

I like it blank, and that’s the way I intend for it to stay.

[Stephanie]

:(

[Edward]

Alright, then, I'm going to attempt to watch Fringe again. People keep talking over it; I probably missed a half dozen good jokes.

[M]

What? Okay, Stephanie. I’ll try to come up with something.

[Stephanie]

I hate it when people talk over the TV....

[Stephanie]

Yay!

[Edward]

M, you don't make sense sometimes. Which partly explains why we all like you here.

[M]

Do I sometimes make sense?

[Edward]

M wrote: "Do I sometimes make sense?"

Yeah ... I'm sure ... occassionally ... maybe.

[Stephanie]

I think that's one of the running qualities we have here among crew members.

[Edward]

sub regno Alexandreae summus.

[M]

Indeed, we all are.

[Stephanie]

What's your title mean?

[M]

“Under Alex’s reign.”

[Edward]

Can I quote your title on Facebook, Stephanie? I know several friends who would love that.

[M]

It really is beautiful, Stephanie. Where did you get it?

(Cough. Cough.) I’m supposed to be in bed already. Good night, pirates! Whoever’s on watch, don’t go to sleep and fall out of the crow’s nest.

[Stephanie]

Oooh, I like it, M!

Ah, my title is actually a version of a quote I saw on Facebook. It was too long so I had to cut some of it and rearrange some wording, but that's the basic idea. Thanks, guys. I'm glad you like it. I can give you the full quote if you want, Edward.

[Edward]

That would be great.

[Stephanie]

Okay, here it is.

[Edward]

Thank you.

[Stephanie]

No problem.

[Caitlan]

I love your title steph. Just thought i'd be the last person to say it :D

[Stephanie]

Oh, thanks, Kat! And may I ask who with a top hat you love?

[Edward]

So, I'm contentedly making fun of Poke`mon for being a world legalized dog-fighting upon which their enitre economy is based and that those Poke`balls are probably some sort of mind-control technology ("I tried to kill you, but you beat me and trapped me in a little magic ball - I will now get beat up over and over for your amusement!"), and then someone points out an even more horrifying aspect of Poke`mon: Their reproduction process.

Japan, what have you poisoned us with?

[Edward]

I do too. But it's serious screwed up on every level.

Premise: Legalized dog fighting.
Characters: Non-orphan ten-year-olds wandering around the country without adult supervision.
Setting: A country with its entire economy based on said dog fighting - you have train and fight or support the training and fighting of Poke`mon.
Narrative: Shouting, violence, half-baked humor (half the time), all ending with every one accept the enslavement of poke`mon.
Backround Stuff: Poke`mon reproduction and ... what exactly goes into those five burgers Ash ate?

[Kymela]

Anyone speak another language I can practise? Italian, Arabic, Russian, Hungarian, Gaelic, Inuktitut, Japanese, Spanish...?

[Edward]

Yeah, and over analyzing fiction is how I relax. I'm not making a big deal of it; I just think it's funny.

Actually ... show about legalized dog fighting is a rather screwed up premise for a kid's show regardless.

How are you supposed to do that on-line?

[M]

You YouTube messages back and forth.

[Cheyenne]

HAHA, that's actually a good idea, M. I did it with Ally on the "Greetings" thread. Like this *motions to self, draws thumb under chin* etcetc... It takes a minute to decipher though :p

[Kyra]

I need to learn sign language. And morse code. Where's Ducky when you need her???

[Kymela]

I have it. I just never use it...

[M]

Is that an airline?

[Edward]

M wrote: "Is that an airline?"

Sounds like it.

[Kymela]

lol It's an IM.

[Cheyenne]

Alex (Al) wrote: "I wish we all had Skype. That would be so much fun."

That would be scary....... imagine a public video chat and someone popping in on the lot of US!

Kyra, you should learn ASL! It's so much fun. However, you have to get a name-sign from a deaf person.

[Edward]

Video IM, that is.

[Kyra]

My dad has Skype. As much as I'd love to IM all you lovely folks face-to-face, it's on my dad's phone and my dad wold never let me use it.

As for sign language and morse code... I'm drilling myself right now. Almost have morse code down, but have a looooong way to go for sign language.

[Christa VG]

Yeah but in a group Skype you can only see the picture of people not the video.

I know I am jumping in the conversation late, sorry.

[Kyra]

Pssh, that's what I did.

[Christa VG]

Yaay I am not alone, I love you Kyra. (Which is not wierd to say to a person you barley know as long as it is on the internet and nobady cares. Or so I have been told)

[Kyra]

LOL, I refer.
