The ^ > V game
^ I think that's really cool. I don't think it would ruin it too much. > I can actually do accents. It is one of the very few things I can do.
V Jealous?
Mod
> The only problem being that I can't HEAR you do them ;_;
v I'd get you to do all my favourites :D And Elevetha, are you any good at acting?
^ Probably not.> I wouldn't really know though.
V Hungry.
Mod
> It's morning here, and I'm not much of a breakfast person ... so I always end up hungry later.
v Breakfast person?
^ Nope. Not usually. Unless it's ham bake or something....> But then I'm ravenous at 10:30.
V It's a vicious cycle.
Mod
> Fried potatoes.
v That's the best breakfast <:
^ Never had that.> Well, I've had hashbrowns though.
V Hmmm.
Mod
> :P
v Don't ask.
^ I won't.> Quiche is good.
V Sausage?
^ love it. > my parents won't let me wear shorts tomorrow.
V they say it's too cold.
^ Ouch.> I hope that it's warm tomorrow.
V Please?
^ I hope it's warrm tomorrow too. > i don't know what to write next.
V I'm bad at writing arguments.
^ Arguments?> Me neither. I'm stuck.
V Who's fighting??
^ Bryce and his dad. > about his mum.
V I don't know what to do!!!
^ Sounds like it'll be good.> You'll think of something. I just hope I will...
V Writer's problems.
^ #writersproblems> that should be a thing.
v TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT!!!
^ It probably is. > Shan't. At the moment, I don't see anything wrong with it.
V Sorry.
^ UGH!!!! > be picky.
V be really picky. I need to know what's wrong. I'm considering sending this one out for publishing.
^ TOO MUCH PRESSURE!!!> NOOOO
V GIVE ME MORE TIME
Mod

Go watch a soap opera. You'll learn lots about arguments from it. :)

And if you need a picky critic, I can help with that. :) Only if you want to show it to me, though! I understand perfectly if you do not.

xD
Pft. I don't do rules when I'm tired.
Mod
Oy, if you were so keen about the rules, you would be addressing my breach of protocol using the ^>V method yourself. :D

v *double facepalm*
^ 
> This song rocks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ga0ohg...
V The music video is pretty trippy, though, isn't it?
Mod
> Weird music video
v Really weird
^ It's a prety interesting story, though. Some of the comments explain it. The song is pretty catchy, though, and I really like it!> About facepalming myself: I don't care. It isn't a big deal to me. ^_^
V
Mod
> Gimme a gif :3 Just for me >:D
v You and Elevetha should have like, a gif contest :P
^ A gif just for you? I'd be glad to! Hmmmmmmmmm... let's see. How's this? 
> Heh. Ellie and I having a contest? That would be a fun! She'd probably win, but it'd be fun. We could have people ask us to find a gif that suits a reaction, statement or emotion, and see who finds the best one.
V I bow down to her superior gif finding skills, though.
Mod
> :3
v My gif!!! :D That's awesome thank you *_*
^ A giffing war?> Sounds like fun.
V When shall we do it?
Mod
> SOON. But you guys both need to be online, and you need a judge there :P
v We'd need a special thread or something, no?
^ Yes.> Perhaps we could host it over at FSAF.
V Thoughts?
Mod
> But yeah, that's a good idea.
v So ... Eris's idea? Someone thinks of a statement, and you guys have to find the best gif for it? But you can't copy each other or anything ... unless you want to pm me it.
Thoughts? ._.
^ Sounds good.> She better not steal off my Tumblr...
V:)
Mod
> You might want to get a more knowledgable judge, though :P
v I won't know the origin or more than half of your gifs xD
^ Does that matter? It might just be an awesome gif.> Though sometimes it does help to know what it's from......
V I hate to do this but....Ethan? He does know most of mine and Eris' fandoms....*arrgh*
Or Briana!! But she's not on much.
Mod
> Or Briana. Someone who at least knows Dr. Who xD
v I/you can ask Ethan, if you like :P We could judge one each, maybe. One for just the gif, and another the origin as well xD.
^ I'd be willing to do that. > I can't guarantee I'd be impartial though.....
V jk, and not right now, I'm kind of busy and leaving soon.
Mod
> That gives us some time to set up a thread and think of a line.
v
^ That's fine. We'll do the contest when all of us get a chance!> And not to fear, Ellie. I would never steal from your Tumblr, even if its a paradise of gifs!
V Is looking forward to the Grand Gif Contest.
Mod
> It'll be epic xD
v Fight to the death >:3
^ You know it.> Aww, dang. (It is a paradise of gifs:)
V At a later date.
Mod
> Who will think of the line?
v Neither of you guys can.
^ Why not?> WHY NOT?
v Tell me!!!!
Fine, don't tell me.

> Er, trying. I love them too <3 :) But I can never do them -.- Well, okay, I almost managed it at one point xD. Depends what you try to say :P Can you do it? ^^
v I was googling this yesterday: A Phoneticist: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonetics
Which is basically a person who studies accents.
Sounds really fun, but it also sounds like it would spoil the accents - once you knew exactly what pitch and vocal whatever that accent was, you'd never be able to just enjoy it for an accent ... :/
What do you think? xD
