it even has Mothra and King Ghidorah

have you not been aware of that before?

I'm doing something something I hope doesn't annoy: picking a half-dozen of my favorite quotes from the year-in-chat and re-linking them, hoping to stir up some year-end smiles =)

@trogdor you made the list =)

@nitsua60 how very flattering

(but they're just a list of hyperlinks on a scratchpad right now, so I have no idea when you'll pop up!)

(only a couple left)

=D

@nitsua60 perfffffffect

(that one ^^ made me lolfigsl)

That's it for me, folks. What-say in a half-day someone else throws some out there =)

ooooh

that would be nice

and require some digging

(P.S. I recommend against starring the re-links I posted, 'cause then they just show up in the star board as the URL. Instead, you can follow the link and star the original message if you feel so inclined.)

@trogdor I was lazy--just went through the messages I'd starred.

This seems like a fun way to end the year - I'll totally join in when I don't have family stuff going on.

@nitsua60 ah, fair enough

how do you search for stuff you starred yourself?

@trogdor star board->show all 6438->from that page you can select "starred by me"

ah, ok cool

@nitsua60 my top one is the first one you linked XD

@Miniman Spacing 'em twelve hours (or so) seems like it'd give anyone who finds it annoying a bit of a break, and two "slots" per day over six days seems reasonable. And if lots of people want to participate, nothing saying it has to stop on 12/31--"the year that was" would make sense within the first days of January, too.

@nitsua60 yeah, I think I already have a lineup

but I don't want to flood the place

@nitsua60 -- at least you don't find out about the dragon attacking your farm by way of him running into the power lines feeding you and your neighbor :P

@trogdor that's a common ass-umption at least :p

@Shalvenay whaaaaat???

@nitsua60 :P I've actually wanted to make a poster out of a 3d rendering of a dragon having face-planted into somebody's yard after hitting a set of high-tension lines

(it'd be a safety poster for ag pilots and such who have to deal with that threat on a day-to-day basis)

Yeah, no. I get the concept. I was just wondering what-all it had to do with anything. Then I realized it probably didn't.

Mask: Bitter Queen II.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Personally I think that we should update the wicked leprechaun for 5th edition dnd of possible.

[hat: What's Fire Safety?]

Hello from the flame dimension.

Come with me if you want to be rather toasty.

@Powerdork you sound like my druid from the NWN server I spent quite a while on :P

@Shalvenay I'll have to hear more about that some other time.

@Shalvenay fair enough

I just saw Die Hard (yes, for the first time, much behind, so wow)

@trogdor as silly as that movie is :P

it was indeed silly

but what christmas movie is not?

1) you need to cart a toolbox out runway side and go wrench on the ILS antenna to make it start flying planes into the ground

and if those exist I don't want to see them

XD

@Shalvenay Are you thinking of Die Hard 2?

@Miniman oh, I might be :P

They got progressively sillier.

The third one is basically Batman vs the Riddler.

it was still pretty silly

but I have no context for comparison

but seeing as you mentioned a plane going down, gonna say it was not the first one

cause the closest was a helicopter that blew up a little less than it probably should have considering

and it was still a smoking husk

it was real fun though

@trogdor depends on the helicopter

my mom was disgusted by the horrible sexism in it though XD

@Shalvenay nope, depends on the tons and tons of Cfreaking4 that it was two feet from

@trogdor oh, yeah, that :P

lol

I am almost more surprised those extremely stupid FBI guys didn't crash the dang thing first honestly

@trogdor sadly, the real FBI isn't that much smarter at times :/

they were acting like school children who somehow had gained the authority to comandeer a hostage situation

@Shalvenay I hope they are at least a little smarter than that

@trogdor partly because they're led by a schoolkid-in-chief atm (Comey)

I mean, it looked like the writers just didn't like the police or the FBI very much

and probably the director too

I still want to slap him around with a copy of Applied Cryptography for a good, long while

mk, I think that is enough on that topic for the moment

XD

@nitsua60 I've saved your favorite comments as a conversation.

nice

I do want to post my own too, but the 12 hour mark is still quite far from passing so far XD

@trogdor BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIE EVER =)

hehe

it was pretty great

can't deny that

Say what you like, that movie is undeniable. That movie will not be denied. Deny not that movie you will.

I never said I even wanted to :P

@trogdor You won't. Undeniably.

=D

lol

Also, indubitably.

You cannot dubit it.

I am not arguing with you sir, I don't understand why you have to persist :P

(Really, I'm just killing time while I eat cookies. Gotta keep the fiction going!)

like listening to a song on loop

which I am actually currently doing

XD

@trogdor indubitably

=)

lol

I have accomplished my task then

amusement that cannot be contained

@trogdor indubitably

[meanwhile, greener just wishes nitsua'd go back to "NEVERTHELESS!"]

Happy Hogswatch everyone

@nitsua60 Die Hard is, in fact, one of my two traditional Christmas movies (the other being Love Actually)

also, Merry/Happy Christmas to everyone who celebrates it. Have a good December 25 through January 6 to everyone else.

@Adeptus If I'm not mistaken, you're both a few days late and early (the winter solstice and December 32, I believe)

@nitsua60 I appreciate it :'D Congratulations

Tonight's Bad Dad has a head too fat for the Vader helmet.

that should be all of them, don't want to get too carried away

I approve of these.

I wanted that last one to be the last one to lighten things up a little XD

NUmbers 1 & 3 were on my short list, but I wanted to keep below ten... I'm glad to see them here =)

cool, glad it is approved of in that fashion XD

@nitsua60 I also didn't want to do too many, seems like it would be easy to just dump half the things I ever starred in here

anyway, I was more than happy to contribute to this,... whatever we are calling it XD

star flashback,... thing XD

Starmas?

Some of them I haven't seen, so it's good to quote them here for everybody's reference!

@Anaphory @BESW Visioning, Networking, Truth-Telling, Loving and Learning, to be precise.

Looking through my starred messages, I found the star on BotchBlog. I hope that, now that I have people to play with once again, I won't have a lot of botches. But the chance is there!

Hmm, my star list doesn't appear to be in strict chronological order...

I'll dig out and share some stars in a few days. :)

@nitsua60 that is a lot better yeah XD

@doppelgreener No, it appears to be sorted by stars.

yeah, I think it probably is sorted by number of stars it got

fair enough

a slightly stranger way for it to work than I expected, but I can also certainly see the reasoning behind it
