Are non-iron-based blood types acceptable?
Well, copper-based blood is also permissible. Or a wasabi substitute.
Good news, everyone: we have tee shirts for all loyal teammates! Your membership dues will cover the costs, as long as you signed your name to the team ledger in blood. Heinz ketchup is an acceptable alternative.
Those who sign up now can come to the Soiree to End(er) All Soirees this weekend! I will bake cupcakes!
I just read Ender’s Game for the first time…wow! It’s a pretty well known book so I won’t give a review, just say that I enjoyed it. I connected with it like I haven’t connected with a novel in a while. And besides, the political and military angles to it were just fascinating .
You might not have guessed, but I’m a big fan of this book. 😉
In other news, the president continues to be an ass.
Technically, this isn’t news.
It’s plot exposition. It has to go somewhere.
A Muppets fan!
I never would have guessed that’s what you look like! I thought you wore 3D glasses!
Can we not use this thread to bitch about the new movies, please?
How about let’s not spread untrue ‘facts’ like that Lucasfilm statement.
How about let’s not bring up stupid things from new movies, if those are not allowed to be answered.
But it was brought up as an example, so it deserves an answer, and it shall be the truth, even if that translates into bitching in some people’s head.
All I did is answer. All I said is the truth. Like it or not.
And if anyone wants to use elements from new movies in ROTJ revisited, then the whole discussion about it is on topic.
imperialscum? Is that you?
We already have a Terminator thread: http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Terminator-films/id/17979
Which is why this exists:

Ah, thanks for pointing folks in the right direction!
Wait! The glasses…the shirt…Ohmygosh! Clark Kent???
Goes to show there are schmucks on both sides.
Yeah, that woman, and all the nasty females who think anything like her, would be clear and specific examples of the nasty creeps.
Vicious Satanists like JLaw and her director sugar daddy and all the Critical Theory-Cultural Marxist depraved monsters in Hollywood and major media who SAVAGELY blame their victims for the world they furiously engineer, while tolerating no other, yeah, these would be more clear examples.
But just to prove I’m not biased, I want to make special mention of the traitorous and cowardly and corrupt Establishment Republican types who hate their own base.
Lack of clarity is a very fair charge against me, because there are many many more I could name with specificity.
It’s okay. You really don’t have to agree with me.

I assumed this was going to be a story about you and me.
Are you making anti-Semite jokes at me?! Calling me a schmuck! You schlemiel!

Truthfully, the newer antidepressants have minimal effects for most people. Older ones were much more problematic.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors/Selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs/SNRIs) are the best modern medicine. Tricyclics have sleep inducing and sexual side effects but they still have their place. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are the most prime to side effects and have dangerous interactions with foods and other meds.
Use the Ian McDiarmid line from Dragonslayer when Brother Jacobus is scorched by the dragon, “Unclean beast! Get thee down! Be thou consumed by the fires that made thee!” This could be used as Vader prepares to throw him in the shaft.
Truthfully, there probably would have been a better place to put this in the prequels somewhere, but since you’re almost done, there’s no point.

Show the scene from the Neverending Story when the Nothing destroys all of Fantasia except for a few asteroids. Just as the Millennium Falcon is entering the asteroid field, Atreyu points in excitement and calls out, “Falcor!”
“There’s something very important I forgot to tell you.”
“What?”
“Don’t cross the streams.”
“Why?”
“It would be bad.”
“I’m fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, “bad”?”
“Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously, and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.”
You promised me a drink: you with a coffee, me with a hot cocoa. I’d hate to find out that you were lying to me! Wishing you safety, my friend.
Throughout high school, I payed my voice after Andy Bell.
Should have paid it more!
You can literally bet money that every time a stupid nonsensical word appears in my posts, I was swipe typing.
I can literally bet money on anything, but it doesn’t mean I’ll win.
You can literally SHUT UP!

There are days I want to create a thread listing members here who annoy me, but then my better sense gets a hold of me and I resist, only to be tempted again the next time those members post. It’s a vicious cycle!
Were I to create such a thread, I assure you that Alderaan would have made the list, more based on his most recent posts than any of his historical behavior.
The closest I ever came was with Erasure. I had every album from the beginning up to Union Street, minus The Two Ring Circus, on CD. After that, I just stopped collecting albums of anything and periodically downloaded individual songs.
I’m in the same boat except I have The Two Ring Circus and I stopped at Chorus.
Their next album, the eponymous Erasure
This would like a word with you.
I actually owned it on CD when it first came out, but ended up selling it a few years later because I didn’t care much for it. That was the end for me.
I Say I Say I Say is my second or third favorite (hard to decide between it and The Innocents). Some amazing work those two have done! I’m a little sad I haven’t kept up. I’ll have to YouTube their newer stuff now.

Start a parallel universe and find happiness again. 😃

Their next album, the eponymous Erasure, is so different from all others, yet remains my favorite to this day. You shoulda gotten one more before quitting. 😉
No need to apologize. I’ve been in many choirs and sang solo as well. Throughout high school, I patterned my voice after Andy Bell. Erasure references are always appreciated!
You know, I truly enjoy the second book as well. In all actuality, I think I’ve come to the point that the rest can just be part of a completely different series or just disappear, for all I care.
