338-13 next month. Why?
First Post!
Hey, people. I have returned… AGAIN. Sorry, but my new school requires a lot more of a time commitment… Honestly, I WILL try to keep up…
Hello?
Oh, new thread. I get it.
I just had my French lesson, and then choir practice. The choir sounds really good! I am in the soprano section, which is kinda annoying because I don’t really like singing soprano, but there are only 3 people besides me in the section so I had to be in it. But we still sound really good.
I was wondering when a new thread was gonna be started. Shweet!
Oh, sorry about the double post, but I’ve been hearing a few things about a convention? Is there actually going to be anything like that, and, if so, can I have some information on the when and where?
Pheonix- I hate when people complain about choir/ band and stuff. Just be happy you have musical talent and shut up. You are making the rest of us (*ahem* musically impaired) feel like crap ’cause we can’t sing much less complain about what section we are in. Ok, I’m just mad because none of my friends let me sing. Ever. Whenever I try to sing, they stop singing, and turn to look at me with pained expressions.
Hello MontgomeryGurl! I’m probably way to new, but since you seem to be a small celebraty around here, I feel I should formally introduce myself. Hello. Nice to meet you. Hows life?
Buh bye
New thread! whee! *pies all*
Sorry, Julieb. Didn’t mean to hurt your feelings. The truth is that I feel like an idiot when I sing high, because to me it sounds really bad. But if you think I should shut up, I will.
Hello from me too, MG! Long time no see!
Shadowkat, the Muse convention is at the annual Pumpkin Drop. I was gonna go, but now I live in Canadia and it is too far of a drive. *sniff* I had such a good pumpkin protector…
Hey GAPA will you allow nano links cuz nano’s so wonderfully educational and muselike? Please? (Note lack of w!) Monty and i want to know where Penty and Queenie J are.
7- Hey! How’s life and everything? I’m afraid that there are an insane amount of people here that I don’t know. I guess that’s what I get for abandoning the blog.
Hi All!!!! Yay fer stuff. Anybody listen to MuggleCast?
in the last thread, a trial of chris paolini was mentioned.
could someone ,link me to it?
id like to read it
time to do homework!
yay!…
*is sad* :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry: :cry::cry:
New random thing- Don’t you just hate it when you read a book and then it becomes really popular and is made into a horrible movie and everyone refers to the movie as if it was the book? Sorry, but that always bugs me.
(15) What book was it? Similar things have happened to me..sigh.
Schoo has killed me. MAH. -robot gesticulations- o_o
Oooh, when/where is th pupmkin drop? I wanna go! If it’s in Chicago, I might be able to. Maybe.
7- Aww, I know how you feel. My best friends are all wonderful signers. And I’m about avrage, mebbie a tad less. ‘Tis saddining, I know.
Ello MG! Good to see ya around.
To all aspiring NaNoWriMo participants: Have any of you read No Plot? No Problem! A Low-Stress, High-Velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days by Chris Baty, NaNo’s founder? It’s a very breezy and funny read. But its silliness contains some bedrock practical advice that for me proved invaluable in crossing the finish line. His book may be useful even if completing NaNo isn’t your goal.
The other key tactic last year was joining up with a few other lunatics noveling hopefuls who met once a week to encourage each other and eat the spectacular fare provided by our hostess. She served nearly all of my fantasy foods in the course of November . . . now mere mention of NaNo makes me hungry.
Never underestimate the power of fabulous snack food supportive comrades.
Full disclosure: I must clear my conscience and acknowledge my debt to MuseBlog for making me aware of NaNoWriMo while I was still a mere lurker. Last November turned a major corner for me. Know I’m cheering full voice for all of you who give it a go, whether you write 50,000 words or 50!
so…
anyone wanna link to that thred for me?
pwease?
For school right now we are making time capsules that we get to open when we are seniors (I’m in 8th grade- my school goes 4-12). Everything I put in it has to fit in one of those little sandwich bags. Any suggestions?
Old coins. Valuable ones. Trophys. Small collectibles. A can of soda A computer Gold. Oxygen tanks. Space helmets. Duct tape. Water. A peach. Freeze-dried meat. A half-eaten banana. Moldy bread.
jest foolin around…
20–I did that! I put in a notebook containing a story I was writing. I never got it back, but if I had I imagine it would have been an enlightening experience.
19–I’ll try to find it.
Oh! GAPA, can we have an archive? Like, a list of threads by date?
Oops. Heheh. We have one. *blush*
guys, I think the very first person to ever post on MuseBlog was Supreme Ultimate Executive Chairman Grant O. Go to Welcome, Musers to correct me if I’m wrong…
I meant Welcome, Musers. sry. I accidentally linked you to October Foliage, part 2. Oops…
If anyone wants a link, I’ll give it to ’em…jest ask…
My brother is nuts…
gapa, I usually only read “the rules” once every six months, so today i read it, and it said that troublemakers would be banished. could you please define “troublemaker”??
Okay. Sorry, Dark Lord of Darkness, I can’t find the trial. Maybe I will write another one…
To everyone: While looking for the trial I spent a lot of time rereading my old posts, and some of the revelations I found myself making were thus:
1)OMG, I couldn’t spell.
2)OMG, I couldn’t write.
3)OMG, I was a JERK!
So, I would like to apologize for all that. If I offended anyone (and I probably did) with my until now unknowingly obnoxious, rude, and generally unpleasent tendencies, please forgive me. Let’s start from a new slate, okies?
I need to go do my geography homework now…
blah paolini is overrated and Jon Oliva is underrated. The two have nothing at all to do with each other, but still.
Paolini is overrated in some circles, i.e., ten-year-old fantasy fanboys.
31 (Phoenix)- I was inspired to read some of my own old posts. The revelations are as such:
1) OMG, I was an idiot!
2) OMG, I was so NICE!
3) OMG, I’ve NEVER posted part of my novels!
I, therefore, would like to apologize for my past noobishness and stupidity, and for my current snark. You’re just seeing the true Penty, or as close as is possible without meeting me.
The novel shall be forthcoming, once I’ve edited a bit. Can we have a NaNo thread?
Speaking of meeting, I know we’ve been sort of planning the first Kokonvention for the Muse offices, which are in Chicago if you didn’t know. The numerous Chicagoland Musers liked this idea, so it might be taking place this summer. What province are you in, Phoenix?
I think I found your trial, Phoenix. I’m not at all good at making links, so I’ll just give you the URL. https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=98 Comment 14
Phoenix and Penty (31 and 33)- My old posts are absolutely idiotic. Every time I read some of my first ones I cringe.
1) OMG I had no clue how to communicate an idea
2) OMG I acted about 9 years old
3) OMG I couldn’t type
It was all very shocking.
I might get a dog!
We just got a stray for the night!
Tody i mentioned cannibalism in one of my classes. i actually said something like “Oh yum cannibalism” really sarcastically. this made those sitting near me crack up. Then i said,” oh, just wait till i tell you the benifts of cannibalism” I didnt really remember them *gasp!* shocking i know. so now im bringing the cannibalism issue of muse to skool.. and hopefully everyone will fall in love it.
MG (34) and all,
You can link to comments directly, like this:

4- phoenix- sry, but you can’t sing low-your voice can’t do it. you can sing high though (if not as high as your sister). get over it and let us altos go in peace.
I didn’t have to run the mile today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*is very happy*
*pies peole for the joy of it*
20- put in a picture of your best friends now, and you can see if it changes and stuff
My last day in town, running my last few errands, I find myself in the vicinity . . . how can I resist? I detoured, made a quick drive by, and now am here to testify. It’s all true — The License Plate exists and is as totally awesome as everyone knew it must be.
For those who don’t know what I’m talking about, please see:
https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=457

welcome back, Capricious the great and terrible.
whoa… did enny1 hear about the plane crash in new york?
31- Don’t worry. You’ve always been one of my favorite Muse blog people!
33- that goes for you, too. And I second the Nano thread.
34- as well as you. I’m off to check my own…
hmm… as I haven’t really found much, I’m venturing to the depths of the Gaboomba to see what I’ll find *there*… *shudders*
OMG, I sounded like an idiot!
OMG, I rambled. a lot.
OMG I triple posted! sorta.
And that fufills my OMG-quota for the day. Let’s see how many of you can find the message I’m reffering to. Come to think of it, my name was alise then.
34- xD.
much funny
tyvm.
has anyone heard of what happened today? it was 5 blocks away from my skool. saw lots of smoke, tnes of helicopters, a bigilliopn fire and police trucks, a bigillion people, and stopped traffic. my principal came in and said that it was only a fire, completly normal. not really. lol.
as long as evry one is self bashing-
OMG i still can’t type
PIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
18-What’s a fantasy food? Sounds good.
36-Play Flanders & Swann’s The Reluctant Cannibal. I’ll post the lyrics if you don’t know the song.
I’m making a papier-mache model of a Civil War ship for Social Studies.
OMG I COULDN’T TYPE!
OMG I CAN’T TYPE!
OMG I NEVER WILL BE ABLE TO TYPE!
Now that that’s over with…I love ATYP. Immensely. Not only that, someone in there is in love with…*drumroll*…MUSE!! I told her to get on the blog and have a good time. I love new recruits.
Anyway, ATYP is wonderful. I’m having all sorts of good times there. In fact, the moments include but are not limited to:
– having a dramatic love/hate relationship with the coffee vending machine
– going mad for six hours (okay, not really a moment, but…) over a bloody five-page question response assignment
– discussing logical fallacies
– having the BEST CLASS MOTO ON THE PLANET: “People suck.” (I’ll explain, don’t worry.)
– being in a class with OTHER SMART PEOPLE!!
– being TREATED LIKE SOMEONE WHO IS INTELLIGENT AND WHOSE OPINION MATTERS!!
– pondering such deep questions as–
– differenciating dashes
– bothering college students
I’m now beginning to really realise just how HORRIBLE regular school is…kvjhdsnrgnhdnd,knfccyncj cdfb!!!!!!!!!
Zurg. I’m so sorry, it’s been so long. I’ll probably only post sparingly because of my workload from school….Like, I have huge tests in both of my AP classes tomorrow. I am so screwed. Well, Chem is a sinch, but I always make stupid math mistakes….gar.
And my lab report is late because my partner had practice….field hockey, I think….but we can get a day’s grace on it. So that’s all good…
And I joined FLO. Foriegn Language Association. I wish my name were Flo. That’s a really hoopy name. And now I’m rambling…..I probably won’t even be on this weekend, because I’m staying at my sister’s friend’s house because my parents are going to a WOOD TURNING CONVENTION. And couldn’t just leave me at my own home…*mutters darkly* I DESPISE sleeping over anywhere. I always feel so gross. And the parent of my sister’s friend is über-religious, so I’ll probably get dragged to some mass. Not to mention my sister’s other friends will be there. Prank-calling or something equally stupid. Like hating their one ex-friend, who is a really nice kid. I think so, anyway. And that friend did know the Lumberjack Song, so I’d like him anyway. I’ll bring books. And play Super Smash Bro’s with my sister’s friend’s LB. Who is cool, but the most disgusting person I’ve ever met. I wouldn’t touch him if my life depended on it. Actually, I probably would if that were the case, but that’s not exactly the point of that particular idiom. Basically, he’s crazy and does really nasty stuff like try to fart and light the gas on fire. I don’t know if he’s succeeded (sp?)…
Not a fun week, basically. And we’re supposed to be getting snow later on. Weirdness. We probably won’t.
Okay, I shall now try to catch up….
15- I. HATE. THAT.
18- Uhm, I’ve been gone for a while….what is that? @_@
33- I’ve experienced reaction #1. Really, I’m not as manically ditzy as I seem in some of my earliest posts. Seriously. Other things:
[restating] 1) OMG I was an idiot.
2) OMG I babbled about stupidity
3) OMG My first blog alias was pure stupidity
4) OMG I was a tad obnoxious
5) OMG I couldn’t type
….and many others. I also realized that I virtually do things that I don’t do in reality. Like hug. If you walked up to me now and hugged me, I’d shriek. But if you said *hugs* I would probably do so back. Odd…
Can you forgive me?
I also liked this thread. Just a great place to let off some steam and not be taken too seriously or personally: [link]
47- Hey! A link! Here’s one that’s really cool but will probably be deleted. I stared at the patterns in the dots for at least thirty minutes: [Snip! Sorry. –Admin.]
50-What’s AYTP?
9-Thanks.
17-I don’t know whether or not someone’s already posted this, cuz I don’t feel like reading all the posts, but, if I I’m correct, the Pumpkin Drop is in Washington, D.C. on Oct. 17th at 12pm…I think. Will someone either confrim or deny that supposition?
50-What’s ATYP?
I’ve been accepted to Lake Superior State university!
Another thing I realized:
6) Gelatin is in a lot of stuff and I didn’t realize it at the time. Like the beginning of the year, when I became veggie. I feel so totally horrible. As a result, I had then sworn off all non-choklit, non-hard-tack candy.
Sorry for the chain comments, but I realized yet another thing:
7) I was really bitter and obnoxiouslyy ranty. I will try to edit my posts more. I’m really not that mean or, erm, stuck-up.
I’ve got to respond to alot of posts, so this may be long, but I’ll try to keep it short…ish.
only by reading 3 books while reading eldest did I get through it Isabella. So don’t worry.
YES, pheonix. Just yes. Everything you said is totally genious.
I will add into the paolini pieing, but I’ll pie the guy who really bugs me. *pies Eragon* Take THAT, you whiny little dragon dude!
omg kiki, those adds are sooo funny. Even though I have a pc, I think apple’s better. *shifty eyes* um…I mean…I love you pc! Please don’t crash on me!
woah there. Fire and evil latin subs. Never a good combination.
KZA Penty, I agree with you that Eragon made me feel better about myself. I mean if my stuff is better than a 16-year-olds, there’s still hope for me! (I’m 13)
Oh, has anybody seen that commercial where the guy is throwing rocks at the girl’s window, and this other guy walks up and is like, “Dude, nobody does that anymore” and hands the first guy a cellphone? And then the first guy throws the cellphone at the window? Anyway, I ask because the guy who throws the cell is my best friend’s family friend. Just a random fact there since people were talking about commercials.
thank god, I’m on part 2. Ok, now on to the next billion posts…
Same with me Julieb. And I’m in musicals. Whenever my audition comes around (because we have to sing, even if we only want a speaking part), people cringe. I mean CRINGE. And playing instruments? Um…let’s see…I played piano for five years and got about as good as the average person gets in one year. Then I had to play the recorder for school and barely passed music b/c the teacher thought I never practiced when I was just bad, and then I tried the drums but kept hitting myself with drumsticks. So you’re not alone. Not at all.
kiki, I don’t listen to muggle cast, but I actually know what it is. Yay for me.
*gives dark lord hug* Don’t be sad! Sad people depress me, and since I’m an optimistic person, that’s just not good.
Yes Julieb, I do hate that. Me mum got harry potter from a british friend before it became popular in america, and my entire family really loved the first two books and reccomended them to everybody we knew, and then they became all popular and everyone knew about them and the movie came out and I didn’t feel special anymore. *gasps for breath, then realizes she was typing and gasps aren’t needed*
brave sir robin, print out a page of the muse blog. It seems most people on here are addicts, so when you’re 18 you’ll be like, “What IS this? Wow…I was weird” because you’ll be able to see your true rambling self as well as remember that you went on here. But it’s just a suggestion. Oh, and put in a picture of a nano or ipod and write, “This is a big deal and is new technology”, or somethign along those lines. When ipods are replaced with something else, that will be cool.
I’ll analyze my first couple posts…
Um…that was like a week ago, so nothing largely embarresing. I posted alot in a row, but I didn’t know about the no double post rule, so no biggie. I’m sure I sound like an idiot to you all, but I just don’t see it.
uh…what’s ATYP?
Righto, I’ve finally caught up. I’ve said it before, but still, all you people are awesome and have actual brains. Toodles!
(53),
About the Pumpkin Drop: information is here:
http://www.mae.cemr.wvu.edu/news/19pumpkindrop.php .
Strangely, though, West Virginia is holding another pumpkin drop in the same city a week earlier:
http://www.educationalliance.org/PumpkinDrop.htm
57-no need to print out.
the history ids there at the “whats here”
Pleeeez don’t zap this….
[Sorry, Kiki. The link you tried to post was to a commercial site. It is, however, charming and looks like a lot of fun, so I’ll stretch the Rules far enough to reveal its name: alivans.com. –Robert]
11 – Indeed.
15 – Me too.
33 – Was so nice? How about are, like most all Musers? And as for idiot……
34 – I kind of feel the same way. But when I first “met” you on MB you sure communicated fine, and acted older than I was. In MuseBlog age.
40 – Awesome! I wish I could see….*dreams about perfect time with Liscense Plate Almighty….*
I FEEL LIKE I HAVEN’T BEEN HERE IN AGES! IT’S SO NICE TO BE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let me look back to those days in April…..
1. OMG I neglected proper grammar and stuff! *gasps* I was young.
2. I posted like a million times in a row. *gasps again*
3. I was so cocky! I do sort of think I’m the best sometimes…
That’s all about the former me for now.
This has absoulutely nothing to do with anything except for the geletain,but I heard that Jello has horse’s hooves in it I should check before I post though. Oh well!
Anyone excited for friday the 13th or doing something about it?
OK. There seems to be a fat lot of confusion happening here.
ATYP stands for Academically Talented Youth Programme and there are both Math and English. (I am in the English.) Its at a local university and I get out of a half of a day of school every Wednesday to attend. And in a nutshell, it rocks to the maxx. But students there are supposed to get around 6 – 10 hours of homework a night. It sucks. But the pulling out of your own hair and the screaming at the top of your lungs and the swearing at the coffee machine and the 10 minute breaks and the awesome teacher and everything else all make it worth it. And guess what…Today, we wrote about…*drumroll*…MUSES!!!!!!! I was ecstatic!!
And as for the motto…My teacher really respects Jane Goodall. Like, REALLY RESPECTS JANE GOODALL. Her husband took her to a Jane Goodall lecture for her birthday and she started tearing up when the scientist walked on stage. Then Goodall began talking about how, at the rate we’re demolishing the environment, in twenty years the chimps won’t have any natural habitat left. So this fuelled her bawling. Meanwhile, her husband was hiding his face with his hands to reduce getting too embarrassed, and a lady sitting next to him asked him what the deal was with my teacher. In a blubbery whimper, my ATYP Writing Skills I teacher plaintively lamented:
“People suck.”
(15 Julieb) YES! I hate that. And then people look at you all weird when you start ranting about how much better the book is. Like my sister brough HP and the PS back from Aus. before it got popular and I read it and then like 2 years later everyone was obessed and then they made the movie…
(47) Yeah I saw that on Wiki news. Weird. And tragic.
(49) mmm, paper mache.
(50) Wot’s ATYP
(51) Sympathy. I don’t like sleeping at other houses either…
(52) Congrats, emogrl!!
(54) Hey, relax, SM! We love you, and we can tolerate rantishness. Rantishness is absorbed in the mutual love of the Museblog. *nods knowlingly, flashes piece sign and goes off to meditate*
(57) That’s cool. Now I can be like “hey, guess what, my internet friend’s freinds’ familit friend is that guy in the cell phone commercial!” and get weird looks from people.
Spanish test tomarrow. It’s hard. I’m in 3 and I didn’t take 2 so I keep messing up on all these things I never learned. Gah.
54- COngrats!! *confetti*
36- reminds me of last year in reading/la class…*story time* So we were talking about how(my teacher speaking) “some words give you images of sounds or smells when you read them, such as rustling”
person- like leaves
other person- cloth rubbing
teacher- or sizzling…
person a few chairs over- bacon!
another person- meat
me, very absentmindidly, not realy noticing I said it out loud- “(human)Flesh.”
teacher- Yes, or fle- FLESH?!
It was a bit embarasing. Everyone sort of looked at me and scooted away.
58- Wait, is the first one in West Verginia too? It’s sponsered by a colage from there, it looks like…
I read some more of my old posts. I was an absolute jerk. Sorry to all of you. I hope I’m a bit more mature than I was a few months ago.
ohhhh, so THAT’S what “what’s here” is. My computer always took so long to load it that I didn’t bother, but I see that it’s quite helpful.
Pentatonnik–I live in Ontario, mate.
Everyone else–today, October the tenth, 2006, is official rebirth day. As of now we shouldn’t feel bad about what we did in the past on this blog, at least, and focus on making future posts better.
And remember, we’re…
*glances around wildly*
wow, I’m actually going to get away with it? Coolio.
We’re all Musers here!
…
*is hit by flying pies*
Blog Rebirth Day… Very apt that the idea should come from an MBer named Phoenix.
*blush*
I am being overly theatrical again?
Drat.
Oh yeah: I just saw “Akeelah and the Bee”. That movie was soooooo good. We loves it, prrreecioussss…
Especially the little Spanish boy…he was the best charecter. And the end was great. And the beginning was great. Heck, the whole movie was great! My advice to all bloggers is to go and watch it, now, if you haven’t already seen it. If you have seen it, go watch it again anyway.
just a quick question… Do I seem more like a communist, a dogmatic bigot, or a radical leftist?
(72) Are those our only choices?
54- Congrats.
62- It’s in, like, everything. It’s like there’s a being that says, “Hey! Look! Happy food! Lets add gelatin so SM can’t eat it!” It’s in Frosted Mini Wheats, for Zarqon’s sake! That’s rather depressing. And unexpected. There’s lots of other stuff, too, butI don’t have the time to list them…
63- That’s quite cool. We have something like that here, called double enrollment.
65- Embarrassing? I’d be laughing *gives choklit*
I suppose we’re all sort-of maturing together here. In a nerdish way Wow, that sounded like something from a sappy kids’ book Seriously, though, it’s brilliant how everyone seems to just tolerate eachother and take everything in stride. Internet lives so pwn actual ones. *happy dance*
FrigidSymphony:
You seem like a loyal, self-justified, nationalistic, patriotic, opinionated, sophisticated, confident, friendly Muser. The last part is all that’s important, mate!
72) Not a communist, you seem to angry about Bush for that, I don’t know what a radical leftist is, for sure, you seem dogmatic, and I really think there MUST be a better word for “bigot” but I just can’t find one, (bigot seems mean. Bleh mean.) but you are that too, but then, I really do not HATE you even though you are a little annoying and swear a lot. You are kinda like family.
72) NUUUU! I forgot the other o in too! I must still be half asleep. And post 75 explains you very well.
73: What else did you have in mind?
75: indeed, that does explain me well.
At least when I’m arrogant i know I’m being arrogant. Imagine how much worse it would be if I didn’t know I was being arrogant?
66 – MG, you’re not a jerk. You’re trying to make sense of life, and you’re trying to do it for yourself without just accepting what other people tell you. It’s causing you real angst, and I think you’re pretty brave to stick with it.
FrigidSymphony: *bows flouridly* Glad to be of service.
Arrogence is a practiced art. Just remember, we’re all Musers–*is mobbed by people who think this joke is not even remotely funny anymore*
Ouch.
Anyway. FrigidSymphony, are you a male or female life form? Just out of curiosity, mate, you don’t have to answer.
Mr. Baker in #79: Here, here! Go MontgomeryGurl! Hip-hip-hooray for our resident posessor of culture, talent and poise!
I’m a guy. I’ve got dark hair past my shoulders, I’m almost 7 feet tall, have giant feet (14) and play guitar. I also sing death metal, if the mood strikes.
FrigidSymphony: I thought so. I wish I was almost seven feet tall, because as it is I’m only five-three and pretty much done growing. Of course, I’m a girl, but still…
I don’t play the guitar. I’m told it hurts your fingers. What is death metal? Wait, I’m guessing it’s the complete antithesis of soft rock. Good, because I hate soft rock. I might also hate death metal, but I don’t know as I have never heard it before. H’mm.
I do, however, sing, but not any kind of metal. Mostly just show tunes. I might try for a musical this year…if my parents let.
Do giant feet make it easier to walk in the snow?
Oh, boy, I’m feeling random right now.
Has anyone heard of “The Amazing Flashcard Machine”? I use it for school, and it is the best study site ever, at least that I have seen.
I want to go to see Eragon, and MST it. (MST=Mystery Science Theatre, an old TV show in which evil villains would force this space traveler to watch really bad old B movies, many of which were actually mentioned in Muse, like “The Brain that Wouldn’t Die” and “The Mole People”. To preserve his sanity, the hero constructed several robots to keep him company, and they would all sit in the theatre and make fun of the movie. People do this to fanfiction a lot. I have never done it myself, because I think it is rather mean, but you’re allowed to MST movies.)
If Eragon has good dragons, I might forgive it…a tiny bit. But I still hate it.
I might do NaNoWriMo this November! Yaaay!
Blah blah blah…
guitar playing only hurts your fingers if you don’t play a lot and never develop calluses. Death metal is metal with loud low distorted insturments and singing. It’s more grunting and screaming than singing, but it takes effort. and a certain technique. I prefer melodic death metal, which is death but with beautiful melodies. Check out bands like Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, At The Gates…
FrigidSymphony:
Ah. Yeah, I know the practice factor: I ran barefoot for a few weeks until my feet didn’t hurt, and now I have absolutely no problem running long-distance (at least in the foot department. I think I have to get a knee brace for my running, though, it’s hard on the joints!) I was really annoyed when I found out my Canadian school has no cross-country team, but hey, what can you do?
I’ll check out the death metal. It sounds rather interesting, although I doubt it will replace Yes in my heart. (Have you ever heard Yes? It’s really great. I’m listening to “Starship Troopers” right now, which is one of my favorite Yes songs.
Do you read Bloom County, mate? If you don’t, go find an archive and look up Billy and the Boingers, formerly known as Deathtounge. You might appreciate it.
MG- I never thought that you were a jerk! You are very cool indeed. It takes a lot to stand by your conservative ideals in this blog with all us crazy liberals
Frigid Symphony- You’re a cool Muser. Nothing else really matters I like you, anyway. I like everyone on the blog. Melodic death metal is great, eh? I luuuurve Dark Tranquility. Sweedish metal equals love. I’m fairly certain emogrl likes In Flames. I like Netherbird…..they make me very happy indeed. And this belongs on the music thread…..*ventures off*
83- MST! hahaha. Didn’t you see the trailer? The movie is going to be horrible. Saphira looks slightly feathery. At least you’re half an inch taller than I am. Everyone mistakes me for someone much younger.
I need to write an article for the school paper. I’m thinking pumpkin dropping. The pumpkin drop unfortunately falls on a lab day. I doubt I can go…..unless I can coerce the science club into going….those meetings are so few and far between that it would be hard….
Any better suggestions for an article?
66-No worries, MG. I didn’t think you were a jerk at all. I disagreed, but you’re not a jerk.
82-Even I’m taller than that.
You know what I just found out today? Little Eva was Carole King’s babysitter. And Mercedes Lackey is married to-are you ready?
Larry Dixon.
Is that weird or what? I think it’s pretty random.
Also, I found out my mother has a bartending degree from Harvard.
Okay…
Who is Larry Dixon?
I am just over five feet, and probably growing. I would not like to be seven feet, just because then my shower would fit me even worse. (Despite the fact that I am at residential high school, the shower fixtures seem made for nine-year-olds.)
72 (FS)- You’re a fairly nice Muser who really needs to get his butt over to the Kokonvention and let the Americans loose on him. XD
I can’t hate anyone I argue with. To argue with someone, I must first have some sort of respect for them. And I can’t hate people I respect, because hatred for me involves contempt.
Y’all need to do Nano. And then hunt me down. It’s not that hard; my username is fairly obvious.
86 (SM)- What kind of article is it? Sciency or just random idiocy? You could write about Nano…Okay, shutting up.
It snowed today, for the first time this year. Just for the record. And it’s so windy that even though I have my windows firmly closed, I can hear it clearly. I’d like the weather better, were it not so cold.
What ho! Phoenix, how have things been with you?
How would you describe me?
I’m doing nano! We still need a nano thread….
and I like all of you! (that would include FrigidSymphony and MG of course!) FrigidSymphony, you were rather opinionated when you first came on the blog and still are of course but now you explain why you think things and don’t just try to use emotions. You are a spiffy person.
MontgomeryGurl, you are awesome! It is very difficult to stand by what you beleive when you are constantly attacked by differing opinions given in anger. You are very wise on many subject matters.
89- Any sort, really. They don’t care. And what is NaNoWriMo????? Please, someone elaborate on this Nano….
NaNoWriMo apparently stands for National Novel Writing Month. Some sort of story competition.
Okay, I finally got smart and Googled it. ¡Most excellente!
[EVIL CHAIN POST OF d00m]
I think I shall. Write about it AND write for it, that is!!!!! *squee* Thank you Penty! *gives choklit pie*
Stormcrow: Heya’ll! Long time no see, mate!
NaNoWriMo is a program where you write a certain amount of words every day for 30 days until you have a novel.
E~A, you are an enigma.
89-you get snow in October????
we don’t get snow until late december, if we get snow at all!!!!
You all are so lucky iff you live in a cold place.
by the way (if anyone cares) im totally lost here. Oh Well
Wow, I’m so signing up…
88-Dixon created part of the FX for the eagles in the LOTR movies. He also created part of the Dungeons & Dragons source book. He and his wife are also wild bird rehabilitators and do things like babysit stuffed golden eagles for tribal elders.
97-Lucky?!? I’m sad that you’re lost. Actually, think of the Museblog as being like tunneling inside a Brillo pad filled with custard.
Does anyone else hate Led Zeppelin? They just annoy me. Really. A lot.
Hello The Insane Blue Sage!! *pies* Are you new? I havn’t see you around before.
It snowed here today too. Durring math, just after me+my friends Daily Bout of Random Laughter(the Morning Version). It happened durring math today, and was more noticable than usuall. The teacher actually saw us cracking up for no good reason and stared. Fortunatly, I had managed to calm down somewhat but Lianna(meh friend) was still lieing on her desk, shaking with silent laughter(oops, I’m sort of going into writing-a-story mode here. Oh well, get me ready for NaNoWriMo). I had to explain to the teacher that that just happend sometimes, esspecally in the mornings and she would be fine soon. The whole class was still looking at here, so when she looked at me I, of course, couldn’t help but smile and send us into another round of Insane Demonic Laughter. Hum. What was the point of this story? Oh yes, the snow. So while everyone was busy edging away from us, someone glanced out the window and noticed the big, fat flakes drifting downwards(ah, still in writing mode) and exclaimed, and then it got harder, and eventually stuck a little. Oh, dinner. I’ll post again with the other stuff I wanted to say later.
89- Here too. Obviously b/c we live in the same place. Call me back!!
We made sukkahs out of candy today in hebrew school.
99-Their voices annoy me. Idk who it is singing, but their lead singer or whatev. Idk, i haven’t heard many of their songs. But yes, they bug me.
I got menny books for my b-day! whee happy! Right now i’m reading Life of Pi, which is something i’ve heard about but never read. So Ebeth is happy! XD (her hw is being pathetically neglected however…)
OMG and i’m so mad, i studied for like an hour last night cuz i keep forgetting smallwood’s tests are so easy…like i’ll study as hard as if it’s lamuth and then i get the test and find i really didn’t need to study at ALL. Like it was SO easy, and it wasn’t just easy because i studied, because i can tell. There’s a difference. No, it was easy because it’s just pathetic, that’s all.
Michelle’s mom just called thinking i was monica and she totally knew that it was my b-day! how, i don’t know but i was like “no, this is [last name-yeah, my friends call me by my last name a lot]” and she was like “oh, happy birthday” and i was like “wow, thanks” It was special. lol
I’m incredibly thirsty for some reason…i have a huge waterbottle next to me and i’m drinking it like crazy. It must be getting really dry out or something. Or mebbe it’s just me…
89-I tried penty but it didn’t work *sobs* lol
speaking of which, are we having a nano thread already? GAPA? Please? *puppy dog eyes*
97- Flurries, but everyone still goes out to buy water and bread and generators. It’s rather comical.
99- Yes, I do hate them. Finally! I hate the Stairway to Heaven song so much. People make too big a deal of them and AC/DC.
I love Led Zeppelin. Aw, my affections aren’t shared…
At the school picnic/bonfire a couple of weeks ago, I sang Stairway to Heaven. It was fun, and I got applause and an encore! I’m very loyal to that song. My dad also loves it, but he says it’s about devil worship. Uh…run that by me again.
Today it was too cold to snow. Believe it or not. And I had to eat in the Sukkah and I almost froze to death. Grr.
I heard Life of Pi was messed-up weird, but I’ve never read it myself.
Right now in school, I’m working on not failing out of all my classes. Wish me luck, mates!
GAPA, I need a thread to post a story I’vs started. I need some feeeeeeeedback.
89, 101-Snowed where i live too. now its all freezing and i feel like i cant type. at least the snow all melted.
no idea what this does… maybe itll disapper…
awww just italics
97- Are you CRAZY?! Believe me, lots of snow=more school days, and instead of spending those days relaxing by the pool, we instead waste our precious vacation time freezing our butts off with no electricity.
102- Ooh. Life of Pi was, um, interesting. I’ll try not to give it away. Hope my italics work.
104- Ha! My dad (a total rock buff) told me a story about a few years ago when his very fundamentalist cristian coworker fell in love with this song my dad had playing on the stereo, and my dad asked him if he knew what the song was about, the guy really didn’t have a clue. Turns out, it was about teen suicide. The guy was so shocked. Why my dad was listening to a song about teen suicide I’ll never know.
I like led zeppelin too. C’mon, name is great.
Italics didn’t really work the way they wer supposed to, sorry.
Thank you all who said I was a wonderful person. It’s always been beyond my comprehension that you people like me. I’ve never enjoyed my company, and recently I’ve been seeing more and more problems with myself. *sigh* I guess I have to live with this personality.
Frigid Symphony- You seem like a communist to me. Just kidding, I actually don’t know you at all. You’re probably a nice person and everything. *everyone gets flowers*
Heavy metal is the awesomest thing ever. Y’all ever listened to Norma Jean, Underoath, or Blindside? Those are some really good screamo bands. I tend more towards punk rock, but metal has its place in my heart. I’ve never listened to Led Zepelin. Yes, I have a sad little life.
*hugs MG*
if you don;t like your awsome personality for some reason, i’ll be happy to lnd yuo one of my spares. [but for the record- i’m not skitsofrenic (sp?) the voices in my head said so]
also- communists can be nice too.
and thanks for the flowers.
72- your anti-religious freedom is kinda communistic.
otherwise, what everyone else said.
Whatever happened to D_Q? I haven’t seen him around in forever. He was cool.
104 (Phoenix)- I ♥ Zeppelin. And Stairway. That, along with Bohemian Rhapsody, is pretty much the theme song of my music-geek group of friends. Although, really, you have to hear us singing it to understand why. That last part of Stairway…man, we sound awful. It’s impossible to produce in text format, I think. Still, I try. Imagine a bunch of half-deaf parrots singing as loud as possible.
And as we wind on down the road *bang bang, bang bang*
Our shadows taller than our souls *bang bang, bang bang*
There walks a lady we all know *bang bang, bang bang*
And everything will turn to gold *bang bang, bang bang*
To be a rock and not to rooooooooooo*voicecrack*ooooooooll…
Ignore the random-idiocy postage, please.
I’m founding the Nano-thread terrorist society. As in, we hold innocent bloggers hostage and demand a thread before we release them. Or we threaten to unleash the dreaded p-word. You pick.
Whooooo…Friday!
We seem rather bent about picking on our own problems. Like, those weird problems that only the person with the problems notices….funky stuff like that….
Bleah, it is too early, and I’ve been up for over an hour. Skool=fatigue.
And I didn’t do my poll for Gov’t class…..I’ll ask the kids on the bus, I think….Which will be here any minute! *runs*
115- unleash the p word and threaten war. much more effective
Zyviva: schizophrenic.
KZA: NO! Please! Not the “p-word”! I will be your unresisting hostage…just don’t say it! I beg of you!
My bedroom has no door. And my brothers like to get up at six in the morning on vacations and scream like they met a saw shark. This coupled with wood floors makes for a rather irritable Phoenix in the mornings. So I’m typing it off on the blog in an effort not to yell at them.
I’ve decided to go back to my true Blog name for a bit. Yay for me.
71 – I love that movie! I just saw it. Joviar probably is the best character. And Akeelah smiles a little too much. But it’s still a great movie!!!
73 – That’s just what I was thinking!
FS, how old are you? I knew you were a guy from the Smooth or Chunky? thread, but I still have no idea about your age.
89 – That sounds right for me. About arguing with people.
101 – That’s hilarious.
110 – You have to do [/i] after you’re done. Except with
118- sorry, spelin’ ain’t wun o’ me strong poynts- see?
and with luck your borthers will get better. mine did (sort of)
brothers.
sorry to all borthers on museblog, but mine is just – asking for a death sentance.
The dreaded p-word? *runs in fright*
GAPAs, please give them a thread. Or at least, promise them one for Nov. 1st!!!!!!
118- NO DOOR? Why? Dude, I’d so perish. Or attempt to install a door and perish in the attempt…..
There aren’t many new comments on this thread….that saddens me greatly.
Ono! What happened to the rest of my post?!?!
I said some pretty cool things!
Oh, I just noticed that the GAPAs never put my alternative names on the Who’s Here list. I guess that it is kind of obvious if I put (THF) after every name.
Hmm, I seem to recall a policy statement . . . ah, here it is, posted in January: “From now on, any requests containing [the dreaded p-word] will be ignored and possibly zapped.” Just a word to the wise.
What’s the dreaded p-word?
Is it “Pwease”? I don’t particularly like that word…never used it until now.
I tried to do a NaNoWriMo account, but since I’m only 11 I have to get that parent consent form thing. And when I tried to lie about my age, it wouldn’t get me any farther than that “tell us about yourself” thingy.
I’m 15.
And you cannot hate Zeppelin. ACDC are irritating, but Zeppelin are just awesome.
I expect Def Leppard learned how to spell from Led Zeppelin.
But I still prefer Black Sabbath!
I just got The End by Lemony Snicket. He ruined it. Why?
[no spoilers, don’t worry]
1. He already used an “E” title in book 6, The Ersatz Elevator.
2. Just The End?!? Only two words?!?
3. He could have come up with a cooler title, that does not begin with B, R, W, M, A, E, V, H, C, S, G, or P:
The Forebodeing Finish
The Tempestuous Termination
The Ominous Outcome
Gar. I’m the coolest title-maker ever. *head swells*
125- WOW!! You’re the same age as me!!
127 – Those titles are pretty good (actually, they’re very good, but that doesn’t have to do with what I’m saying), but I like how he had those elaborate (I know that’s not the right word, but I don’t want to find the right one) titles and then ends the whole series bluntly. It not only adds to the fact that it’s the end but also ends the series with something like a flourish, except opposite. I like that.
128 – Yeah. I know. I felt the same way. Everybody else is at least two years older, but it doesn’t really matter, because we’re all Mu*is pied*.
HAPPY FIRDAY THE 13TH!!
Aside from that, I have nothing to say.
Oh dear.
*ponders*
Ah! Senior night(for band, that is. me’s a flute!)! Right, so there’s a football(american footbal-not soccer) game tonight. It’s still cold out, didn’t snow today though. It’s unusually cold weather, just to let you all know. Normally it’s not like this till December. Anyway, this is the last home game of the year, and the seniors last one forever(at this school, at least. Unles they become Super Seniors) so it’s dubbed “senior night” and they get to choose the song we play and make up the drill. So we all devide into our little sections on the feild, and do whatever it is there atempting to tell us. The flutes start out in a big Circle of Doom, and then we run around the circle for 28 counts, then make a windmill and go into a runing spiral-thing. Then we ran out of time so it apears that’s all we’ll be doing. A bit depressing, really.
We also have to waer…”costumes.” Flutes are all wearing jeans, black sweater, and then our band hats. With the white plume. And fruit. Yes, fruit. The’re going to put fake fruit on our heads for halftime. *sigh* Somthing about a flute(fruit) saled. Oh well, all the clarenets are waring boxers. There’s one guy, Ian, who they contemplated making waer a skirt but decided wearing bokers would be to the same effect(he’s a bit odd. When we “dance” durring halts he has a habbit of turning around and waving his butt at the crowd(non existant, he’s only done it during rehursals. So far).
My. I’ve been writing a lot lately. *sends cookies to all who bothered to read this*
Can we have a new “Ask the GAPAs” thread? That sounds really cool. And I have some questions.
97- today the schools in Buffalo, NY had a snow day with 2 feet of snow, It was really cold here.
120- same here, about my brothers. Only I like my big brother now and not my little one, I used to be the opposite.
127- I listened to something about that book this morning on NPR
126-I. Hate. Led. Zeppelin. Deal with it.
127-The Bad Book. The Stupid Story. The Tortuous Tale. The Literary Lapse.
I’m in a bad mood because my sword arm is sore. But I got asked back to Neuroticon! Buttblam!
130-thanks for the cookies! I read it!
I like stairway to heaven I like some led zepplin songs.
I, again, most humbly (sans p-word) request a NaNo thread.
126-Really? I’m 15, too. And Led Zeppelin is cool.
!33-You have a sword arm? Do you fence?
133- xD. the worthless writer.
136-:lol:
Hello my friends. I’d like to alert you all of something… I got this in my e-mail this afternoon.
BRITISH REVOKE USA INDEPENDENCE:
A Message from John Cleese To the citizens of the United States of America:
In light of your failure to elect a competent President of the USA
and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the
revocation of your independence, effective immediately.
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over
all states, commonwealths, and territories (excepting Kansas, which
she does not fancy).
Your new prime minister, Tony Blair, will appoint a governor for
America without the need for further elections. Congress and the
Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated next year
to determine whether any of you noticed.
To aid in the transition to a British Crown Dependency, the following
rules are introduced with immediate effect:
1 You should look up “revocation” in the Oxford English Dictionary.
Then look up aluminium, and check the pronunciation guide. You will
be amazed at just how wrongly you have been pronouncing it.
2 The letter ‘U’ will be reinstated in words such as ‘favour’ and
‘neighbour’. Likewise, you will learn to spell ‘doughnut’ without
skipping half the letters, and the suffix ‘ize’ will be replaced by
the suffix ise.
3 Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to
acceptable levels, (look up vocabulary).
4 Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises
such as “like” and “you know” is an unacceptable and inefficient form
of communication.
5 There is no such thing as US English. We will let Microsoft know on
your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take
account of the reinstated letter ‘u’ and the elimination of -ize.
6 You will relearn your original national anthem, God Save the
Queen. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday.
7 You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns,
lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and
therapists shows that you’re not adult enough to be independent.
8 Guns should only be handled by adults. If you’re not adult enough
to sort things out without suing someone, or speaking to a therapist
then you’re not grown up enough to handle a gun.
9 Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything
more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. A permit will be required if
you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.
10 All American cars are hereby banned. They are crap and this is for
your own good. When we show you German cars, you will understand what
we mean.
11 All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will
start driving on the left with immediate effect.
12 At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and
without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and
metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.
13 The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been
calling gasoline)-roughly $6/US gallon. Get used to it.
14 You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French
fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling
potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut,
fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar.
15 The cold tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not
actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be
referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted
provenance will be referred to as Lager. American brands will be
referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat’s Urine, so that all can be sold
without risk of Further confusion.
16 Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as
good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to
play English characters. Watching Andie MacDowell attempt English
dialogue in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to
having one’s ears removed with a cheese grater.
17 You will cease playing American football. There is only one kind
of proper football; you call it soccer. Those of you brave enough
will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities
to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every
twenty seconds or wearing full Kevlar body armour like a bunch of
nancies).
18 Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to
host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played
outside of America. Since only 2.1% of you are aware that there is
world beyond your borders, your error is understandable.
19 You must tell us who killed JFK. It’s been driving us mad.
An internal revenue agent (i.e.tax collector) from Her Majesty’s
Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all
monies due (backdated to 1776).
Thank you for your co-operation.
-end
A little overly liberal (sorry, MG and the rest) but hilarious to no bounds. John Cleese is my hero.
w00t!!!
130 – Why wouldn’t I read it?
132/120 – I like my brother. He’s only six, but we usually get along pretty well, and I like him fine.
135 – I fence, but I can’t do it until soccer is over. I haven’t done it this summer, either. So I’m sort of rusty. But I do fence!
138 – That is the most hilarious thing I have heard in a while. Thanks for sharing.
N_r – Are you new? Even if you aren’t, *pies*
138- Okay, I must admit that once I got past that “failure to elect a competent president” part, it was hilarious.
I’m thinking about starting a colony on the moon. Only intelligent people that I liked could join me. Soon we would have a utopia. Who wants to join me? You have to show that you’re smarter than the average turnip (and thereby smarter than the average high schooler), and that you don’t intend to kill anybody. You in?
How could you start a colony on the moon?! How would you get oxygen?! arg! Besides, would’t you have to get an extremely expensive space shuttle, train all the people smarter the the average turnips, and buy all these space suits? Plus, the moon is just a bunch of moon rock, no lovely earthness. It sounds like a bad idea to me!
P.S. I don’t intend to kill anyone.
142- Don’t burst my bubble. It’s a very nice, pleasant bubble with roses on the sides. If you burst it, there will never be another like it. Ignorance is bliss, so let’s stop putting so much effort into education, okay? I’m going to my dream world. Have a nice day.
#127: LOL I like The Tempestuous Termination.
Hope everyone’s had a Happy Friday the Thirteenth!!
Spirit week was fun. Yesterday, I brought some purple hair streaker to skool, and everyone used it during lunch hr – We were the “Purple Posse” in Morgan’s words.
Today was Spirit Day, but since it’s Friday the Thirteenth (And then there’s the fact that my friends and I don’t have any skool spirit whatsoever), T and I decided to dress hardcore goth – I wore my new Tripp pants (Actually, they aren’t new – I bought them off my friend for five dollars – They’re so freaking expensive at HT), and T wore a ton of studs. And then I made Friday the 13th cards/flyers and passed them out to friends/acquaintances – I’m trying to find ppl that want to make all Friday the 13ths national holidays…but I doubt I’ll get many followers! Oh well. We put the flyers on our lockers, but ppl just tore them down. >-
144- Hahaha, that sounds awesome. If I had seen my friends today (and had thought of it), I would’ve done something like that. Just to see their faces. Unfortunately I barely got out of my house today, so my Friday the thirteenth was rather mundane.
143- whoa, wait, MG, are you back for good? Or are you just doing very very very frequent “visits”?
(sorry, I’m a bit slow on the uptake)
if you are, YAY!!!!!!
138- That is freakin’ genius. Spam, no less, but genius. John Cleese is my hero too.
“Goooda niiiight a-dingdingding…”- Silly Job Interview
Sorry for double posting, but I just went to Barnes and Nobles and got a bona-fide quill. It has a metal nib and the feather is burgundy. My dad has a stock of Levenger ink. Hurrah for calligraphy!
146- Not back for good, just for this week. I was actually planning on leaving tonight. I’ll visit again sometime before New Years.
138-roflmao!
xD
go john cleese!
141-it was indeed hilarious ^_^ and, also, we do kind of fail at electing people. take the last election:
press: bush wins!
press: (5 mins later) whoops, sorry, Kerry wins!
press: never mind bush actually does win!
I’m not saying bush is incompetent I’m just saying we can’t decide in the first place.
149- see you later! nice to hear from you! take care! Wish you’d stay longer but I do understand your reasons for going.
138 (Phoebe)- I got that a while ago. There’s one about the Axis of Evil, too. I’ll see if I can hunt it through the bowels of my email.
149 (MG)- I have grabbed onto virtual you, virtual limpet-style, and refuse to let go unless…unless…unless you give me pie. Otherwise, I fear I shall tether you to the blog forever.
Please, ignore the immaturity and give me cookies. And a stress ball, and a pony, and a tea set…
(87) Yay for me, I only know who one of those people is.
(97) Don’t worry, being lost is normal on the blog. You’ll get used to it eventually.
I envy those of you who get snow. It’s still hot here. Tonight was homecoming and I nearly died in my band uniform.
(127) Wait, it’s out! I didn’t know. Great title making skillz, though. I agree, those are all much better.
(130) That sounds crazy! I wish my band did something like that. Fruit on your hats? Haha.
My band has this one cool move in the middle of Pinball Wizard (or show is The Who theme) where theres this percussion vamp and we all go “huh!” and then scatter and march to our spots, spinning randomly in circles as we go. Yeah, it doesn’t sound very marching-ish but the effect is really cool, as long as you get to your spot in time.
(133, Queenie)Yay for you! but….What are these things?
(138) I love you John Cleese!! I think he just replaced Eric Idle as my favorite Python.. brilliant. Ha.
(but rather sad too)
I feel very uninteresting right now. Meh. I had a bit of a break down after our half time show, so I was sort of sobbing on to my friend’s shoulder until we had to play more pep toons. It was stupid. After-preformance stress. I get that a lot.
American football is the dumbest game ever. It’s so BORING. Seriously, I try to pay attention, but they stop every 10 seconds (just like good old Cleesey pointed out). Gah.
Last night my house was invaded by anout 20 mathematicians for dinner. I found out later that the one I was sitting next to (and had a lengthy conversation with) was actually rather famous and was a Feilds Medalist. Heh.
138: Older than Dio, but still funny.
141- w00t yes.
153- Invaded by mathematicians? Sounds very cool.
I’m taking a fencing course in school. It’s a special thing only offered to certain people….taken during lunch. Actually, I’m taking all of the lunch courses: fencing, creative writing, and genetics. Wheee.
*sigh* I’ll probably be gone for the rest of the day due to the woodturningconventionofd00m…
138-OMG I ♥ john cleese!
My new quill is fr00dy.
Hello? how are all of you? What’s up? I’ve been really busy since, like april, haven’t been on. but i see monty’s back for a while, so here i am! There seems to be a lot of newbies. pie them all for me, will ya?
has anyone read The End yet? I read it all yesterday. got very little sleep last night because i was thinking about it and am still confuzzled today.
159- Its waiting for me at the library… hopefully i’ll read it today.
Okay everyone! I have a question for you! A orangutan and a bluebird are on the top of the Empire State building and they both jump off at the same time. Which one will hit the ground first?
Once upon a time,
I found Museblog. Since that fateful day in October 05, I have happily lurked on Museblog.
To commemorate that life changing day, I’ve decided to celebrate my one year anniversary of lurking by introducing my self.
Where I live: Washington
Age: 14
I’m homeschooled
My favorite sport: Reading
*ducks incoming newbie pies*.
I’m going to try to down a smilie! Okay, here it goes, 8)
I did it!
135-Yeah, foil. I’m going to a tournament for U-14 tomorrow. Should be fun. It’s healed by now. I think.
138-Haha!
161-What kind of a question is that?
162-Nice to meet you. So, what are your opinions gained by lurking?
163,64-Congrats!
You know what I want to do today? Go clubbing. I had a school dance last night that was lame. Really lame. Lame-o-rama. I wish, that just once, something could happen in Chicago that would be fun. Not the library showing Queen Kelly.
Band practice today; we played Savatage’s ‘Believe’ cuz the drummer got tired of playing Sweet Child O’ Mine.
I had a fabulous time marching for two hours straight yesterday in SNOW!! AND we didn’t have melaphones!! Never again!! I HATE HOMECOMING WITH A FIREY PASSION!! WHO is with me on this?
People are funny when they expect me to have school spirit. They are NOT funny when they are SO serious about it you want to break their faces.
An astronaut came to the local museum today. I didn’t get to meet him though (like I did three years ago) because I just found out and the lecture ended a half an hour ago. *many tears*
And check this out: my history teacher’s idea of a “fantastic. educational, entertaining movie” that we’ll “really enjoy” turns our to be about the most boring craft in history: COOPERING. FREAKING COOPERING. It lasted about an hour. I was hanging on the edge of my seat, let me tell you…IT WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DULL. I nearly went mad. It was form 1967 and of course, was narrated by the Generic Documentary Man whose voice is a slow drawl AND the world’s most powerful sedative. I was ready to just get up and walk out of the room, scream at the top of my lungs and run down the halls. I hate school. Anyone who is with me on this read “The Teenage Liberation Handbook”.
Are we going to hold a Muse convention in January for the 10th anniversary??
(167) No, no, please tell me it isn’t true — not GENERIC DOCUMENTARY MAN foisted on yet another generation of hapless students. *bangs head against wall*
Doesn’t he get enough work on cable?
Generic Documentary Man shall die! MWAHAHAHAHA!
Pater just taped Plan 9 from Outer Space. w00t! Except it won’t work downstairs for some reason, and mom refuses to turn off the MSU/OSU game. Since when does mom watch football?!?! Stupid buckeyes…*sulks*
I’m having a b-day party today! w00t! Fun times. So i’m doing my pre-party hanging around aimlessly not doing much of anything.
Oh yeah, i forgot to rant about the game too! We got squished on these teensy little bleachers. Most people just stood the whole time cuz there wasn’t enough space for ppl to sit down. The other band pwned us, but that’s ok, we didn’t mess up. They were the OU clone band. They actually had a pretty sweet dance too. The bus ride was pretty boring, it was like 45 min. long. but i remembered my ipod this time! The football team won, but who cares about them? It was a pretty uneventful friday night really…
I think i’m getting a cold…*snibble*
161- it depends. if the bird flies, than the orangutan would hit first. If it doesn’t, i think they would both hit at the same time.
162- a whole year of lurking? wow! welcome! *pies* i’m homeschooled too!
167-Oh, my god. I hate GDM. He’s a mindless jerk who’ll be first against the wall when the revolution comes. And seriously, I feel for you. That probably defied the Geneva Convention.
I am a l053r. I have nothing to do on a Saturday night but go on the Internet and discuss the Geneva Convention with a bunch of lunatics. Then, I will paint my scale model of a Civil War torpedo boat (the CSS Fanny, no less, and then the USS Romeo because my first name is Juliette) and then finish the cannon (which is a painted tampon, slender regular, by the way), and then go to sl33p. I suck so much.
I need some chocolate. Great. Then I can get fat and acne’d, and lose the few friends I have. Fabulous. I’m going all Marvin. “I’m depressed.”
What happened to all the text on the front page? It turned green!!
159- My friend got me a reserved copy for my b-day, but I don’t really like the series. Way to conspiratorial, like Lost. I just can’t keep up with those type of things.
138- that’s great!
Woah!! All the threads are different! Green text and no little clickey buttens at the bottom… O.o Is it going to stay like this?
167. I thought that I was entirely alone in my stand against school spirit. Next time I have to stand up against the overwhelming tide of peer pressure, I will take a small amount of comfort in the fact that there is at least one person among 7 billion who agrees with me.
I have a theory that the government created the whole “school spirit” thing to train us to have unfounded love for our country later in life. This is just a theory though. Atomic theory is also just a theory.
Well, it turned out we didn’t have to war fruit on our heads. We wore fairy wings. And Ian the clarenet eneded up waering the boxers and not a skirt after all, but he also wore a cape and a mask. And we didn’t have time to finish the drill in rehersal, so when we got halfway through we just had to stop standing in a big dilapadated spiral on the feild. Oh well. Oh, and we lost by a lot. Somthing like 41-14, but as ebeth said, who cares about the football people?((by the way ebeth, do you travel to away games with your team? We don’t))
Also, I’m going to a haunted house later with my friend later. I hope it’s fun. It has a really long line, though.
#148: Ooo, that sounds neat…I want a quill…
#155: You have fencing at your skool? Augh, that is sooo cool!
#158: Hey there! Glad you decided to come back!
#167: Coopering? Ugh (Dude, I actually know what that is!).
Fær! One has obtained his drivers’ license today. AH HA HA HA HA!
162- *pies with pumpkin pie* that’s a long time!
172- “Oh, my god. I hate GDM. He’s a mindless jerk who’ll be first against the wall when the revolution comes.”
hee. I caugt the obscure h2g2 reference. and I knew your name. The things you learn from Museblog/Gaboomba…
dandelions, my friends don’t eat gelatin, becuase it is horses’ hooves. This really stinks, because then they can’t eat jello, and jello is sooo fun. Ditto for flan. Flan is fancy jello. (I probably didn’t spell flan correctly)
pheonix, I REALLY want to see akeelah and the bee, so I’m happy to hear that it’s great. Speaking of spelling bees, has anyone seen the 21st annual putnam county spelling bee? It’s a musical, and it’s soo funny.
frigid symphony, you seem awesome. uh…yeah…that’s basicly it.
*uni takes notes on frigid symphony’s appearance* Uh…these are for…*runs away to creepy basement where she stalks interent people and…* JK. Hope I didn’t creep any of you out too badly.
death metal kind of frightens me. It makes my bubbly self unhappy, and that’s never a good things. *starts frolicing through flowers*
I have no idea who Mercedes Lackey or Larry Dixon are…you can get a bartending degree from Harvard! OMG! MY DREAMS HAVE SUDDENLY CHANGED!
elasse, you used the word spiffy. You are my hero.
OMG, scratch the harvard bartender idea! I want to be a bald-eagle babysitter for tribal elders! YES!
Ebeth, my sister’s friends call her by her last name, only shorten it into the annoying “Klingy.” Since my sister is a ridiculous flirt, they’re always like, “Klingy, stop being stupid. Klingy, stop flirting.” and when she whines abnoxiously, they’ll be like, “KLINGY!!!” Anyway, then they got the brilliant idea to start calling me little klingy. Oh yes. LITTLE KLINGY. It was a bundle of fun. Really.
Maybe you have a tumor Ebeth. This guy on grey’s anatomy had a tumor that made him reeeely thirsty.
ugh AC/DC. Don’t even get me started.
oooh, Queen! Now there’s music I like.
What happens in The End, Sweet Melpomene? WHAT HAPPENS?! I’m dying here! My mum won’t buy it and my library gets it on tuesday! HEEELP! Maybe I can track down lemony snicket and force him to give me a copy. After all, he lives in san fransico, and that’s only an hour away. 40 minutes without traffic.
I’m not the youngest one here! WOOH! I’m close, but not the youngest. And don’t feel bad if you’re 11. The MC in my novel is 11, and she does some pretty freakin awesome things, including saving an entire world. Her 8-year-old sister also does some cool stuff, but her 13-year-old brother doesn’t do much. Besides, I was born 11/11/92 (9 + 2 = 11) and I graduate from highschool in 2011. Now what’s my lucky number?
ooh, my dad was on NPR once! He’s a neurologist for kaiser, and he’s “funny”, so for some odd reason they chose him to talk about some boring hospital thing. Yep.
Pheobe- HAHAHAHAHAAHA! Wow, I think I’m going to die from laughter. That truly made my day.
MontgomeryGurl, I’m in. I truly hope I’m smarter than the average turnip.
emogrl, yesterday was my school spirit day too! Pajama day! Normally I don’t participate, but who can pas up wearing pajamas to school? And I’ll join you in making friday the 13th a national holiday. That sounds awesome.
or take two elections ago…
every news channel except fox: Gore wins!
Fox: Bush wins!
news channels: Huh?
Fox: BUSH WINS!
new channels: Oh, right! Bush wins!
Not to be annoyingly against bush or anything, but that really is kind of what happens, even if fox was right.
The Skipper Nancy, guess wat my PE unit was the last two weeks? Football. Oh joyous day. So basicly one position where you don’t have to throw/catch alot it center, so I was put in that. Only center is the person who throws the ball under their legs and says “hut”. I kept calling it the “hutting position” and the guys kept getting angry at me, beacause I kept missing and hitting them in the noses. I’m such a girl.
kiwimuncher, the blue bird probably will, becuase he has less air resistance, but it depends if this is an empire state building in an enviroment without outside forces or not. If it is, then they’ll hit at the same time.
What? You’re all dissing my love, Generic Documentary Man? I agree he’s a bit dull at first, but once you get to know him, he’s really a nice guy. I especially love his narration in “motion and acceleration.” It was really touching.
Queenie, GDM would love you even though you say you’re a loser, but unfortunatly, you insulted him.
Um…so sorry this is like the longest comment in the history of comments, but I’m bored.Please read this thing and don’t just skip it over, because even though some call this rambling, I call it awesomness. And yes, that’s a word. Just like funner. And prettyful. And now I’m going.
Toodles!
see, the funny thing about ACDC is that some people who hate it love blues, and fail to realize that ACDC is just blues played way louder.
Do you guys have seperate gymn classes for guys and girls?
Violetfire! We missed you! Or at least I did…
Glad you’re back.
141 – I don’t care about the science of it…I’m in! And seeing that I can type, I’m pretty sure I’m smarter than the average turnip. Unless you had a more advanced technique in mind. And all that I can do as for killing people is that I don’t intend to. But you’ll just have to take my word for it.
155 – They all sound fun…do you have time to eat?
161 – I think we need a bit more of the equation…does the bluebird want to fall? Or would he rather fly away? Technically, they would hit the ground at the same time. But Bluebirds are so light that the sind certainly could intefere. But if he really wanted to do it, he could go in cannonball position and the wind wouldn’t be able to do as much. Whatever.
182 – I think of flan as being spelled flahn, but maybe neither of them is even sort of right. Hm…
WHO’S GDM!!!!!!!!??????????!? I don’t get what you guys are talking about…
GDM = Generic Documentary Man, the star of soporific videos shown to generations of secondary-school students.
182- I’ve seen 25th annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. It’s so friggin’ hilarious!!! I have Pandemonium on my iTunes.
158- Hello!
159- Grr, yes. But I don’t want to spoil it for everyone. Did you read Chapter Fourteen?
161- Someone’s asked something like that before. Are you new? *pies* Welcome.
162- That’s a lot of lurking *pies* Welcome.
167- I must read that.
176- I don’t think anyone here really has any skool spirit…
179- Heh, yeah.
180- Lucky. I won’t have mine until March. You should get PWT PWNS plates.
182- I’ve had flan once, years ago. It was gross. I thought it was mostly egg whites, though… Meep. I don’t want to spoil it…I could put it in carets so you’d have to read the source code….but I’d spoil it for the GAPAs…aargh. Good luck getting it…
183- There’s always a one-song exception for every band/singer I hate. Like Toby Keith. Can’t stand any of his songs except for the “Beer for My Horses” one…. AC/DC’s music may sound like blues, but the vocals are different. I heart the Blues Brothers.
184- I’m done with all of my gym classes. One of my schools seperated guys and girls about half of the time, but it was only seperate about twice last year… I’m equally horrible at sports either way.
185- About five minutes, but that’s not really a problem. It usually only takes me that long anyway.
I have a lab mañana. Anyone know anything about Acid/Base Standardization?
‘Ello Violetfire!
162-Let me start by saying that, yes, I know I’m way late for this. Buuuuut…….I’m homeschooled, too!!! Welcome fellow homeschooler!
*pies with banana cream pie*
Woo-hoo!!!!!!!! Ok, now that that’s done with, just for the record, if anyone cares, I am going to post some information about myself (which I never thought to do before).
State of residence: Michigan
Age: 15
Date of birth: 3/26/91
Sports of choice: Soccer, Powderpuff, Pie-throwing, Piano-playing, and Reading (since it is now a sport)
Secret wish that will now be not-so-secret: To have superpowers!
~Shadowkat
Sorry for double post.
180-Haha! Congrats! What state do you live in, so I know whether or not to be nervous? J/k, j/k!!!
188-I won’t have my license till March, either.
well I can’t stand blues frigid symphony, so this al makes sense. And no, my PE classes are for both guys a girls. And we’re forced to wear these horrible uniforms to them.
oh, my friend has the entire soundtrack on her itunes. And then she started singing to the one with…er…the guy’s problem. So she’s in the middle of belting out the chorus when I think she finally realized what she was saying and got all red and quiet. It was very amusing.
aw, I had good flan (oh flahn) Sweet Melpomene, I’m sorry your flan experience was ruined for you. And I know no one will actually be able to tell me what happens, but I just CAN’T WAIT
ooh! I got an idea! Ok, before you all go, “Ew, what?” just wait until I finish. We should all tell our guilty pleasures! Now this may sound bad, but it’s not. For those of you that don’t know, a guilty pleasure is something you do/watch/eat/love that you don’t want anybody else to know about. Shadokat’s superpowers example is sort of a guilty pleasure, but I personally would’t care if others knew that. I’ll go first.
I love the show Teen Titans.
THERE! I said it! Omg I know you must all hate me know, and I really don’t know why I do since I kinda hate anime, but I do. And even though it’s over, I watch reruns after school. I haven’t told any of my friends this and don’t plan to. But it’s not so hard when you’re just typing it. So now folks, if you want to get them off your chest, post your guilty pleasures!
Ok, triple post, but I’m here on business this time.
FrigidSymphony, are you posting on the PPP anymore? If not, we will officially un-pwn your country, and give it to whoever claims it. If you are, though, just do so within the next 48 hours, please.
To anyone who’s interested, there’s a party on the Snow Cap Islands on the PPP!!! Just join a country or moon by stating residency, and come!
~Shadowkat
To clear up some misconceptions, jello is actually made using the collegen from horses & cows. Collagen= connective tissue between cells= not in hooves. Jello is not made using horses hooves, but rather boiled skins. MUCH grosser.
Have no time to respond to everyone, but the John Cleese thing was vvv funny!
Thanks for the welcome, everyone!
I though I should post an official ID just so it’s official.
Actual first name: Elias
Country: Switzerland (in case you hadn’t guessed already)
Date of birth: 1/1/91
Favourite sport: I don’t like sports much, but I play tennis, and Federer is a joy to watch, so Tennis.
Secret wish: That the devil actually exists. I’d sell my soul in an instant just for supreme shredding powers. Then I’d befriend Satan and hang with him in Hell. Cool, eh?
(192) You don’t need to worry then, because Teen Titans is not anime. Neither is Avatar as everyone seems the think. Both shows draw on elements from anime, but are American produced, and therefore not.
OMG! My former neighbor just came over with her new baby and it was soooooooo cute! Her name(the baby’s, the mom’s is Emily) is Devin Helen, and she is so tiny! It’s really weird, because Emily is very tomboyish, short hairk, deep voice that sounds like a boy’s, plays a lot of sports, just got decharged(is that the right word?) from the army. I got to hold her, and she smiled at me! And said “ahn ung umm ah!” which I take to mean, “You are a very nice person to hold me so gently!” I gave her this teddy bear I had and I think she really liked it! That just made my day.
192 – Who are the Teen Titans?
What’s PPP? Purple Panda Power? Oh yeah, here’s a thing about the real PP, PP (it’s not the greatest, but it still gives you the idea):
PURPLE PANDA- Played by David Nohling and Matt Meko
Purple Panda is an inhabitant of Planet Purple where everything is purple and everything is the same. The planet was discovered by Lady Elaine, and Purple Panda enjoys visiting her in the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, a place where people are appreciated for who they are. He can magically travel “the purple way” just by thinking himself there!
192- Don’t feel bad, I usually catch the end….because I watch Code Lyoko. Sad, I know. But I’m actually reading the newspaper during it and other news on my dad’s laptop… This isn’t a guilty pleasure, it’s just something I do that I probably should not. I hate homework, so I do it right after I wake up in the morning. Which means I’m sleep-deprived and stupid all day long. But I can never bring myself to do it. Like now, I have to to my calc and read about my chem lab and finish my newspaper article. Doubt it’ll happen. I’m still in my pajamas. That’s a weird word.
196- For shredding powers? Uhm, okay, then. My fingers would probably bleed off if I attempted that. You could have fun reading banned books in Hell
192-Ah, don’t feel bad…I like it, too.
195-You’re welcome!
196-Is your name pronounced “el-ee-us”, or “el-ay-us”…or am I totally off? And what do you mean “shredding powers”?
Well, superpowers was all I could think of. I wanted to start a trend, and look!, I did. But it pretty much turned into guilty pleasures, so in that case…
Actual first name: Katie/Kate
Secret Wish/Guilty Pleasure: I wish I were somewhat evil. As in, I wish I had some power that I could be evil with, like electrocution, or something. That would be fun…I know, I’m crazy.
evil powers? been there, done that.
PPP is the Pieceful Pie Planet. It’s a thread, look it up.
Hi everyone! Now I am going to give you the answer to the bird/orangutan question . (161) The bluebird would fly away.
165: Hey Queenie, it’s a trick question!
170: Go Emmatheduck, you got it!
182: Uni0000, remember the bird can fly!
185: Taiwan Hippo Fan, you’re thinking about it too hard.
188: Sweet Melpomene: Nah, I’m not new, I just don’t come on line much and yes, I asked a weird question here before. I’m really good at making up trick questions.
Speaking of questions here’s one:
What would you do if you woke up one morning and your bed was surrounded by a mob of angry penguins?
thanks for clearing that up julieb. And you’re right. Boiled skins is way grosser.
Ooh, this girl just moved here and she’s from switzerland! And I’ve been to switzerland! I LOVE IT. you are very lucky.
Sorry Axa, my mistake.
babies are so cute julieb. My cousin is having a girl, and I can’t wait! And I think the right word is discharged, but you probably shouldn’t trust me.
lol SM, I usually catch the very beginning of code lyoko, and those characters scare me. Especially the one with purple hair. I can’t figure out if it’s a girl or a guy.
kiwimuncher, we’re learning about motion/speed/velocity/all that junk in science, so instead of thinking of biology and realizing the bird can fly, I immediatly thought of our recent motion test. Ugh. And as for your question, I would throw my dog at them and run for my life. If my sister was here and not in college, I would throw her at them and run for my life. I know. I’m just soooo brave.
oh, and sorry to double post, but your question reminded me of a joke my dad told me. Adults seem to think my dad is halarious, but I just think he’s an embarresement. Ok, so the joke is sort of just a sentence, but here it is.
If a mountain lion is about to attack you, you don’t have to be able to run faster than the mountain lion, just faster than the person you’re with.
I know, not very funny.
Oh, why not? Actually, I’ve done this before, I think on the original HG2MB thread, but I’m not sure…Oh, that was on my olde name..

203 – Yeah, I knew that, but I didn’t think of it.
204 – I said basically the same thing Emmatheduck did, just magnified about 100000000000000 times! As for your next question, you would say, “Look! There’s a mob of angry penguins surrounding my bed!”
The real thing I would do is give them my water bottle and see what they did, and then start tearing a hole in the wall to my brother’s room. Or jump out the window. Or just stay in my bed and/or go back to sleep.

Angry penguins? is one of them named bob?
(yellowsharpiemarker 162) Haha! *pies*
(167T The Foolish Peradventurer) YES I AM WITH YOU ON THIS!! gaaah the stupid pep assemblies and stupidness. gah.
Last night I had a band festival that lasted till 10:30 pm. We’re always the last to preform because we’re so big. 270 strong. How many people are in your guys’s bands?
(177 Jadestone) Oh, well, that sounds cool anyway. But yeah, our football team always loses too. Actually’ it’s really funny, because that’t the ONE sport my school sucks in and it’s the one they make the biggest deal out of.
One of the staff member’s has a shirt that says
“buy a ticket to see the band performance and see a football game for FREE!”
(180 Jackal) Congrats!!
(182. uni0000) I pity you. I don’t have to do PE this year, but sounds really annoying.
(184 Frigid Symphony) No. In elementary-middle school, we have seperate sex-ed classes, but that’s only for a short amount of time at the end of each year. (At least that’s the way it is my state). Other than that it’s all co-ed.
(204) Push the screen out of my window and climb out.
name: Sally
Secret wish: To know people who I actually like (like musers)
Guilty pleasure: disco music.
(214) Yeah, one of the penguins if named Bob, and another one is called Bobalina.
I think if I woke up one morning to find a mob of angry penguins around my bed I would either run for my life, or try to negociate peace
with a bunch of sushi.
(215) I bet your football team didn’t stiink as much as our highschools 2 years ago! We didn’t even win one game and each time it was always like 0 to 16 or something like that.
Hey, are there any UNC fans here?

My dad tells bad jokes too, and they aren’t even funny. All those poor, obligated-to-laugh waiters. -sigh-
182: Sweet! *Gives you a Happy (belated) Friday the 13th card* Actually, I’ve been thinking that we could just call it F-13…Well, we call Christmas Xmas…Ppl refer to Independence Day simply as “The Fourth”…It works…
194: Ewww you’re right.
204: I would be psyched, b/c I’ve always wanted to have a mob of penguins for pets!
Oh my goodness. I got home from work at two thirty this afternoon, fell asleep, and woke up a little less than an hour ago. Something tells me I’m a little sleep-deprived.

GAPA, I want to know if the Museblog looks different from a GAPA’s point of view. Is everything code? Green? WordPress-style? Also, I’d like to know if you could change the color of the Blog for Halloween or Christmas/Hannukah.
We can see the blog the same way you do, but we also have other options. For example, we can see the most recent posts on every thread all at the same time. That’s handy. We also have some extra search functions. You can find out all about it at http://www.wordpress.org.
As for changing the color, I’d have to go in and edit some WordPress files. It sounds as if it would be simple to change all the green to (say) orange, but these things always seem to have unexpected repercussions.
Ooh! Ooh! I have a random wish! My random wish is that I would be able to breathe underwater, and generally have powers over water.
Name: Caety (my parents can’t spell
DOB:11/11/92

Sport: skiing and reading. Oh, and dancing to the music on commercials.
Secret wish: to become a best-selling novelist, though that’s not so secret. My secret wish would probably have to be to get away with murder. Yes, you should be afraid.
I don’t understand football, so I don’t pay attention to how the highschool does. Oh god, guess what our next PE sport is? Lacrosse! That’s about the only sport I hate/don’t understand more than football!
lol Axa, all those poor, obligated-to-laugh-because-they’re-so-nerdy-and-don’t-realize-it-isn’t-funny neurologists. Woah. That was alot of -s
today we had these guys from tanzania (i think that’s right?) come to our church. They hold huge camps for kids and teach about jesus and stuff through singing. Now I’m not a very religious person, but when they sang to today I was actually interested in church. They got all the old people to start dancing! They told my conformation class all about the poverty in their part of africa, and how barely any kids go to secondary school (highschool) because their parents make one dollar a day and can’t afford it. They’re building a secondary school and will especially try to educate girls, which I think is awesome. This is totally random, but I just thought all you musers should know what’s going on in my life, even though I’m sure you are all too busy talking about random wishes to care. But too bad for you, because they don’t have a word limit on these posts! YES!!!
Toodles!
(227) -shudder- My friend set up a blog for me on my sub domain, and it’s awful to edit. Very confusing. I gave up. xD
(229) That is cool! It sounds like it was interesting.

Secret Wish: Supreme Court Justice, mate!
Not-Terribly-Secret-Wish: Go to Samalia or Kenya, set up a school for the children of freed slaves who have no money for education, and do it all on a Canadan passport so the Arabs who

KZA Penty: Are you kidding? My school is just like that, except there’s no boarding here. We are all split into “families”, like Hogwarts Houses except much smaller, and us freshies get a senior to be our big sister. I have a twin, two cousins, six aunts, a mom, a baby brother, and all that apart from my big sister, who is the BEST sister ever! Her name is Sarah, and my twin’s name is Sagy (pronounced Sah-GHEE, it means “to uplift”) and my family hangs together all the time. It is so much fun…
And our school lunch has sushi! This school is sooooo great…even the classes are fun!
I miss my friends, though. *sniff*
Hey, wait a minute… Aren’t profiles supposed to go on hg2mb? i thought that was the whole point of it, to create a guide to the blog and all its peoples. or is it just another place to be CRAZY!!!! Wheeeeee!!!
oh, whatever. why should I care?
Welcome back, groundhog22!
Anyway, would this be MuseBlog if everyone colored inside the lines?
I color inside the lines. I just color outside them too.
236 (Phoenix)- Your school sounds awesome too. I wish our cafeteria had sushi (even though I can’t eat it, unless it’s veggie sushi.) and maybe siblings too. My wing (Quick guide here: We’re split up into seven buildings. Each building has four wings. Each wing is a mix of sophmores, juniors, and seniors.) is sort of like an extended family; we kind of have to be, since we only see our real families on weekends. I miss them terribly. I miss my friends at home terribly. But this place is awesome anyway.
200: Reading ’em already. Finished Jon Stewart’s ‘America’ a week ago. Wal Mart banned it. One thing they DIDN’T ban though, was the bible. I mean, a book that incites people to murder working women and people who work on sundays? what the hell?
201: uh-lee-us. And shredding powers means playing faster than Michael Angelo Batio.
FrigidSymphony: Uh…I’m not familiar with the Bible, just the Old Testament. I know for sure the Old Testament has nothing that says you should murder people who work on Sundays and/or happen to be female. Maybe the Bible does. But I doubt it–for one, the original Christian Sabbath day was Saturday (they changed it, I forgot why) and wasn’t the virgin mary a shepherd?
What is “America”?
I LOVE designing superpowers. I’m planning out a story, in fact, where a strange viral plague called Apacaypse (sp?) has spread across the globe, infecting one-fifth of the world’s children. The few that survive come out with messed up DNA, giving them superhuman abilities. However, the Altered, as they are called, are not universally accepted. In my story, which takes place ten years after Apacalypse started (the day the deaths climaxed was called Shakedown) and the U.S. government has set up a school, called the Northampshire Academy, which teaches Altered who can’t get into schools because thier powers are destructive or just plain strange (like, a kid whose hair turns pink in the mornings wouldn’t attend. A kid with a supersonic scream would). One of the students, Daniel Keith, has gotten kidnapped by weird Satan worshippers who think he is a demon and want to sacrafice him. Fun, eh? I have a whole cast of charecters, and making up thier powers was the most fun part.
242: The bible does in fact say something to the effect of “those who work on the sabbath shall be put to death” and “it is not a womens place to work alongisde men, they who do shall be stoned”.
and ‘America’ is Jon Stewart’s book. Satirical history and politics.
Old or New Testament? I’m trying to find it…*flips though Old Testament* If it’s anywhere it’s probably in Duteronomy.
I promise you that it isn’t in the old testament, because it refers to the day of rest as what would be considered saturday.
Is no one here from North Carolina?! There aren’t any UNC fans?!!
My random wish would be to go to the Amazon rainforest. It’s so cool!!!
(236) Wow! That is so cool that you have sushi! The coolest thing my school ever serves is eggroles and they are always mushy.
Oh my goodness! Isn’t it an outrage what the Sesame Street people did to cookie monster?! They totally destroyed him! Sesame Street will never be the same!
Okay, here we go. Numbers: 15:32-15:36
The Children of Israel were in the wilderness and they found a man gathering wood on the Sabbath day. Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to the entire assembly. They placed him in custody, for what shoudl be done to him had not been clarified. God said to Moses, “The man shall be put to death; the entire assembly shall pelt him with stones outside of the camp.” The entire assembly removed him to the outside of the camp; they pelted him with stones and he died, as God had commanded Moses.
Okay. The Mekoshesh Etzim (the Cutter of Trees) was stoned. Now, Rashi, the most famous Jewish commentator on the Torah, asks why the punishment was so harsh.
1) From the words ha’moatzim oto mekoshesh, Rashi says we learn that they first warned him to stop, and he refused.
2) from the fact that the passage about the Mekoshesh Etzim is right next to a long passage about idol worship, we learn that breaking the Sabbath willingly and for the purpose of defiance (the Mekoshesh was warned; his continuing was demostrating he did not believe in God) deserves death penalty, because it is in essance the terrible sin of idol worship. The Sabbath was instituted as a testimony to the fact that God created the world. Any Jew denying that deserves to die. NOTE: Non-Jews do NOT recieve the death penalty for this, because they were not commanded.
I have yet to come across a passage that says women can’t work alongside men. One of the Judges, the prophet-kings of Israel after the times of Moses and Joshua, was a woman: Deborah. She was also an army general and led the Israelites to victory against Sisera, who was killing Jews like rats. Rebecca and Rachel, two of the four Matriarchs, were shepherds, as was Tzipporah, the wife of Moses. Yocheved and Miriam were doctors and midwives. Rahab, who hid the spies in Jerico so that they could give vital information on the city to Joshua, was an inkeeper. And the list of female prophets goes on and on. Later in history, Beruriah argued law before the Great Court, Judith brought on the downfall of the Greeks at the hands of the Maccabim by killing the top general herself, and there are many, many more. If women who worked alongside men were executed, there wouldn’t be any women left. I, personally, plan on joining the IDF as a fighter pilot and later becoming a Posek, a master of Jewish law, like Beruriah–and that aside from becoming an attorney. (although hopefully I won’t meet Beruriah’s fate. Her life was really sad.)
Unless you are a Biblical scholar, please don’t diss my religion.

random comment for the day is done.
250 — what was the fairy tale about? i once wrote this redone hansel and gretel. it was sooo retarded.

Secret wish: Not telling.
I am furious. I’m getting detention for yelling about my SS teacher.
Mr. L: The US’s glorious tradition of Christianity, on which it was founded…
Me: Sir, it was not.
Mr. L: Sorry?
Me: With all due respect, sir, the US was not founded on Christianity.
Mr. L: You are wrong, Julia. Don’t be stupid.
Me (jumping on desk, yelling, pointing finger): My name is Johanna Juliette Eileen Ethyl {my last name}! The Treaty of Tripoli, 1796, clearly states that the US was not founded on Constitution in anywayshapeorform! Sir!
And now I’m extremely upset and I’m being threatened. My parents side with me, but the school thinks it will prevent me getting into high school. Methinks not. The kid who shut me inside a locker last year will get into high school. OK, I got mad. I should not have done that. But I knew what I was talking about, and I think I’ll be fine.
God, I’m an idiot.
Will someone give me virtual chocolate? Please?
Milk or dark? Oh, never mind–take both. *showers Juliette in Ritter Sport of all descriptions* I’m the only one who can give it to you, because I’m the only other person on the blog who spells it the way you do. [I stand corrected.]
Didn’t we decide not to do birthdays. *gives virtual chocolate to que. J*
Are not!!!!
241-Ah. On both points.
255-*gives Queenie J. virtual chocolate*
Enjoy!
Oh, I love what yellowsharpiemarker started!!! It’s such fun!
†FrigidSymphony†– You were born on January 1st?? Cool! So was I!
FrigidSymphony or Jadestone-How do you make that cross-like symbol?
I actually have a wordpress acount. And a bolg. As for color changing, I don’t know how you do it. *fiddles with javascript* Oh dear never mind now I gotta go fix that.
#255: *Gives you Cadbury white chocolate (Best type I’ve ever tried)*
Pertaining to several recent posts having to do w/ Christianity’s take on women, “Sabbath,” etc: Jeesh. No off to any Christians here (No, really. Most of the ppl I know are Christian; I don’t have anything against you guys. Hvr, I do have quite a few problems w/ the religion itself), but these are the primary reasons why I decided to be Wiccan. See, I wanted to be Christian back in 5th grade…Then my parents decided that I should go to a Catholic skool for three yrs – The more I learned about the religion, the less I wanted to be a part of it. The ideal role of a Christian woman was the last straw for me. Thankfully, I got out of that skool after 8th grade.
Then in 9th grade, someone (They’re not even a close friend, but I’ll be eternally greatful to them, LOL) told me about Wicca. I was a bit turned off at first (After seeing it referred to as a type of Paganism), but…Well, here are some things that I like about it.
-Neither women nor men are superior
-Even if someone is born into a Wiccan family, they can choose whether they want to be Wiccan or not – They are only initiated after they are absolutely sure that they want to.
-You can do spellwork (That’s probably considered blasphemy or something in the Bible)…but you don’t have to – It’s actually not part of the religion.
Sorry if that was a bit preachy. Yeah, it was a bit preachy. Sorries.
263-Hm…that doesn’t sound all that bad…but what’s the fundamental view of Wicca?
Queenie J., don’t worry about it. You will SO get in to high school, and anyone who says otherwise is fooling with you. No worries, and you were definately right!
emogrl: sounds nice. I’m glad my religion has no ingrained gender superiority :-). And by the way, about spellwork: many people would disagree with me, but I think the practice of magic has two problems:
1) believing that you can control God’s will (nature is the creation of God, therefore, trying to conrol nature is trying to control God)
2) I say this with all due respect, but in the times of the Torah witches were decidedly not very nice people. They used human pain and death to cast spells. Back then, there was no “nice” magic.
So, I guess that as long as you concede that you can’t alter what God intended and don’t worship devils, you’re fine. I personally think that the first one is a fine line to walk, but maybe for you it’s easier.
I’m just glad I was born Jewish. My grandmother was Catholic before she converted, and I must say, I admire her for it and I know a convert is one of the most honored in the world to come, but I’m still happy I didn’t have to choose. Plus, in my religion everyone goes to Heaven other than someone who commited the worst sins (I think there are two of them: total rejection of God, or heresy, and cold-blooded murder of an innocent) without repentance. But, if you repent, as in, truly feel bad about what you did and never do it again, you are immediately forgiven and go to Heaven after eleven months in Gehennom. I hope to get away with one or two months, because I don’t think I’m that bad of a sinner. Naturally my record is shot compared to any true riteous person, but in this disgusting world I think I will be all right.
Isn’t the fundamental Wiccan view the harmony of all living things?
263- My best friend is a wiccan. And she basicly seems to have had a similiar experience. I get why someone would want to become a Wiccan. But unfortunatly I live in the middle of the bible belt, and being Jewish has already caused me to get enough death threats. Jess’ wondering, what religion where you before?????? (thats probably a stupid question)
44- Deuteronomy says some funny things, like you can’t wear clothes made of two different materials and it is your right to make anyone from a foreign country your slave. Pheonix, your from Canada, now your my slave (it’s my right)

Sorry, but my dad would kill me if he found out I put up my real name, so I’ll go by Julie, which is close. Sooooo….

DOB 8/11/92

Secret wish: I am constantly afraid of everyone around me dying ever since I read those chicken soup books. *shudder* Every passage says “I just really wish I could have said goodbye…” It freaked me out.
Oops, I meant that just to say secret, not secret wish. My secret wish is to TAKE OVER ZE WORLD!!! MWA HA HA HA HA!
Juliette (I’ll always call you that, muahahahaha), don’t worry. I go to the harmonious school of harmony, so the teachers being stupider than the students doesn’t happen a lot. You’ll still be amazing, and High Schools mainly look at your grades (two years, shudder, and it’ll be me), not wether you corrected the teacher that one time. You’re a genius, face it, as is 110% of the Museblog, so, I mean, don’t really worry for you.
Having the school all mad it you can’t be pleasant, though. Virtual cookie?
241- Is that the one that’s done text-book style? Or am I confusing it with something else….I’m pretty sure it was Jon Stewart…
*gives Queenie chocolate, in that spelling*
I need to go find the MBers’ Religions Thread….so do you!
I’ve started to read The End. I don’t really like the series, but my friend gave me the book as a late b-day prezzie, so I feel obligated. OMG Daniel Handler’s Jewish.
271-yup. and it was vv funny.
215-disco music?|!?!?!?!!?!?…
255- i agree with you, but was jumping on desk nessesary? or was that an exageration? did he or you say summat else? no worries tho, ull get into high skool. just tell them what you did, and why you did it. very simple. anyway, isnt there a skool that you can just test into, and noone cares? there is isn new york.
*gives customizable virtual chocklit*
263-why do we need to be wiccan? it seems okish, but why do you need it?
267- football? of the american sort? you like that….?
265-so, so i not get to go to heaven because im an atheist ? (supposing god an heaven do exist)
I didn’t read the end yet, but 0mg–I ♥ the series!!!
243- You have no idea what you’re talking about. I happen to read my Bible, and know a bunch of other people who do, and none of us have ever been incited to kill people over breaking the Sabbath (which is an irrelevant law now anyway, for complex theological reasons). I don’t recall anything in the Bible about stoning women for working. People who use the Bible as an excuse to hate people are not Christians, and I could point to several verses that say to love your enemy. I really don’t want to rant about religion, but you need to realize that we have actual reasons for believing what we do, and you shouldn’t act like we’re all woman-hating bigot idiots just because you happen to believe something different than us.
Um… so. This is my last post for a while. Have a nice rest of the year, all of you.
I watched “Monty Python’s Life of Brian” which I think is (mostly) HILARIOUS!!!!
However, I can definitely see why it was rated “R”.
Anyhoo,
( breaks into song)
…always look on the bright side of life!
(whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life…
If life seems jolly rotten,
There’s something you’ve forgotten!
And that’s to laugh and smile and dance and sing,
When you’re feeling in the dumps,
Don’t be silly chumps,
Just purse your lips and whistle — that’s the thing!
And… always look on the bright side of life…
(whistle)
Come on!
(other start to join in)
Always look on the bright side of life…
(whistle)
For life is quite absurd,
And death’s the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow!
Forget about your sin — give the audience a grin,
Enjoy it — it’s the last chance anyhow!
So always look on the bright side of death!
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
Life’s a piece of s***,
When you look at it.
Life’s a laugh and death’s a joke, it’s true,
You’ll see it’s all a show,
Keep ’em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you!
And always look on the bright side of life…
(whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life
(whistle)
ooh, Axa, where do you live in California? I don’t want to know creepy details, just North or South.
KZA, your school sounds awesome. I’m in a public school but a gifted student, which just means I get stuck sitting with stupid kids so I can help them. It sounds really mean, but it’s true.
I think we should make an olympics out of our sports. It’d be way cooler than the normal olympics, that’s for sure.
Pheonix, I envy you and your sushi……ooh, that sounds like a great story! I want to read it when you’re done. I have this comic-book-making computer program where I don’t have to draw anything, and I love giving the superheroes funky powers.
omg kiwimuncher, YES. Veggiemonster will never be as cool as cookie monster, not matter what they say. It’s no wonder they have an entire musical making fun of them. (Avenue Q)
Leila the Pirate Mermaid, first off, I adore your name, second of all, I’m glad you juggled with a really cute boy, and third of all, OMG JACK SPARROW IS SOO HOT. Right, now that that’s out of my system…I also thing we should have a dream thread. People tend to enjoy ranting about their dreams. It’s awesome.
*gives Queenie entire box of virtual chocolate* I’m sooo sorry that happened to you. Teachers can be real idiots sometimes. I shall relate to you something that happened last month…
Mrs. G: Blah blah blah…and MacBeth ordered his wife to be killed, and Blah Blah Blah
(I wait paitently for her to finish before raising my hand.)
Mrs. G: Yes Caety?
Me: Uh, Mrs. G, I saw MacBeth this summer because was my sister was in it and I’ve seen it at a proffesional company, and I really don’t think MacBeth got his wife killed. She became sick from guilt, and died of that sickness.
Mrs. G: Oh no, Caety. He never actually orders her to be killed, but if you read the text you’ll see he really hints on it.
Me: Uh…ok…
So I went home and asked me pops about it (he’s read MacBeth like three times), and guess who was right? Moi! I was so smug the rest of the week.
I’m Christian, but I really don’t agree with the religion. I have my own mix of worshipping nature, thinking both men and women are equal, believing in being reborne (because the prospect of an afterlife bugs me), and believeing there is some sort of god out there, and he’s the one that controls science. It’s a very odd belief system, but it works for me. I just feel kinda guilty when I sing stuff about how I love jesus in church, because I don’t believe in him. And once I’m confirmed, I’m saying I want to be Luthern, which isn’t true. But I’m not wasting two years of sundays so I can go, “Nah, I don’t wanna be luthern.”
Elizabeth, it’d be nice to end stupidity.
I can’t wait to read the end! I feel a weird connection to Daniel Handler (er…Lemony Snicket), because…
a) He lives in san fransisco, very near me
and
b) My friend went to a book-signing he did. This was when it had been rumored a movie would be made, and my friend gave him a headshot and resame and asked if there was any way he could give that to the casting people, because she absolutley adores his books and violet baudelaire. Now it would be one thing if he just accepted it. But he wrote her a very personnel letter (I’ve read it) in the snicket voice saying how she would make a splendid violet and even though he doesn’t have alot to do with the movie, he gave her stuff to the casting people. It was just so nice that I know he’s a cool guy, and very sarcastic.
Wow. Nothing happened today to report.
Toodles!
276 (Ötzi)- I. Love. That. Movie.
271 (SM)- That’s the one. I stopped at the nude Supreme Court justices part, but the rest of it was amusing.
255 (Queenie J)- Chocolate for you. And I have never spelled it any other way. Don’t worry about high school, though; I’m pretty sure you’ll get into the school I’m at if you apply. The SS teachers are awesome at disillusionment of stupid ‘history’ that never happened. We did not revolt because of taxation without representation. Anyone who says otherwise is generalizing and so an idiot.
If you’re coming to the Kokonvention, whenever it is, I can give you an application. </shamelessplug>
Geez, I really love my stepmother.
hahaha.
I was just innocently singing my SPPPPAAAAM song, very quiet-like, and she came into my room, chewed me out, and slammed my door.
I am so going to boarding school.
(243) Firgid Symphony, the fact that you don’t have actual quotes makes that an unjustifed and unfair statement. And don’t give me the whole “well it’s true” shpeel. You don’t have diect quotes, so it’s hearsay, or the moral equivalent. You’re saying stuff like that because you are prejudiced against Chrisians. OK, Skipper’s getting angry. I’m sorry. I’ll probably regret posting this and being the only one who gets all pissy. But seriously. Christianity isn’t an inheritly bad thing. So please refrain from unnecessary snide remarks about it.
And for the record, I say that as a decided atheist.
(247) *panics* WHAT DID THEY DO TO COOKIE MONSTER????
(255) What kind of school do you go to?? Jeez. That’s horrible. But I doubt it will keep you from going to high school.
*gives virtual choklit*
Yeah, teachers are idiots.
Teacher: .. and so that’s why you never see illustrations of people in Islam, because it’s forbidden by the Koran…
Me *raises hand*: Actually, I don’t think it’s written anywhere in the actual Koran that you can’t draw pictures of prophets and Mohammed and such… I think that was a rule that came into place later and only applies to public settings-
Teacher: no, it’s deffinitly forbidden
Me: *goes home and asks Mum, who has PhD in Islamic art and archtecture*
*is right*
(275) Toodles MG! It was nice seeing you around! *goodbye for now pie*
(276) That song is the toast! I like to sing at marching rehearsal when we’re setting drill. (Setting drill can being murder sometimes).
School doesn’t start until 12:20 tomarrow coz of conferences. *does the staying up late reading jig*
OH And I got the best assignment ever in writing/lit today. Basically, I have 3 months to do any type of project on anything I want. Toast!
Once more, I don’t know much about the Bible. But I know a whole lot about the Torah (compared to the other bloggers, anyway) and I can safely say that you are NOT allowed to have slaves, from your country or not! Peeps, what you don’t realize is that Judism has two sets of laws, the Written Law (Torah) and the Oral Law (the Talmud). For example: The piece of Talmud that I am learning in class right now is asking why it says “bought” referring to women and “sanctified” referring to men. It’s very complicated, but the gist of it is that it says “bought” for women but doesn’t say the man is buying her because the man is not the one who is buying her. She is buying herself freedom from her parents. And we further learn from this that there is NO CASE where you can force a woman to get married (you can force a man. If a man commits rape, the woman can force him to marry her so she won’t have to raise a child alone or be shamed.)
You see? Not everything in the Torah is literal or straightforward. As MG said, if I didn’t believe that my religion was the right thing I wouldn’t follow it. There are reasons behind almost EVERY law. The example of the “not allowed to wear two types of thread” is one of the few unexplained laws.
Good morning, Musers!!!
*bangs on pan; there is a rooster crow in the background*
It is I, procrastinator extraordinaire, up to finish math.
I just had to see what time it is in MuseTime.
Its 5:30 here.

Quick clarification of terminology: when Phoenix refers to “the Bible,” she’s talking about what Christians call the New Testament. When she mentions the Torah, she’s talking about what Christians call the Old Testament. When Christians refer to “the Bible,” they’re talking about their Old and New Testaments together.
If you’re going to continue discussing religion, I suggest moving to the “MBers’ Religions” thread. I’ll be happy to start a new version if you need one. This discussion doesn’t seem much like Random Craziness.
255: Bloody morons. Give it to ’em, and if you have to, become a martyr.
and… I DO have the quotes. see hot topics thread.
Hooray!! Yip-Yip!! Yah-boo!! Phillips is a German and he has my pen…….
Sorry. Today my fellow Monty Python aficionado brought the script of “The Killer Joke” to skool. Sadly, we didn’t get to perform it. *sniff* In other areas, I have an orthodontist appointment today in an hour. *glomp* I might be getting braces… NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Hello everyone! Since this is the random page and this just popped into my head I am going to ask all you guys opinion.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TYPE OF CHEESE?!
(282) This might seem dumb but why is it 5:30 where you are and 7:33 on Muse?
(gives Queenie a peice of chocolate cake with a chocolate pudding layer, a chocolate brownie layer, a double dark chocolate cake layer, milk chocolate icing, chocolate chips, shredded white chocolate, oreo cookie crumbles, and rockie road icecream on top.)

1. Smoked Gouda
2. Blog time is set to U.S. Central time — standard or daylight, as the season warrants.
3. Wow. I hope Juliette has some leftovers.
287- I like Swiss, goat Cheese, or brie. they al go with different things.
Its not fair!!!!!!! I have to walk to school in the dark with a backpack that literally weighs 30 pounds and on the way, my hair starts to freeze because its wet. and today I tripped over my own feet and messed up my knee!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRR
*rant over*
I like cheesecake, but I don’t generally like most cheese
273-We-ell, I did jump on the desk, and it probably wasn’t necessary, but he annoys me. And he cannot pronounce the word ‘chutzpah,’ though he uses it a lot.
Thanks for all the virtual chocolate, guys. I’m 94% sure I will get into high school, becuz my sis goes to the top one in the state. And because of my school, I’m basically guaranteed in.
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

you know what cheese is really good? MADRIGAL SWISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i also like mozzarella and provolone. the american kind that comes in the individual wrappers is really disgusting. we had some once and it got all moldy because no one would eat it for like ever.
289 — OMG my driveway is really long and it has all trees and stuff along it so i have to walk down it before sunrise in the mornings and it is really scary. a truck vroomed on the road this morning and i swear i jumped like a foot. i keep thinking serial killers and black hooded things are going to come out of the woods! it is really stupid but in the dark it isn’t.
*sends Juliette a French Silk pie* It’s pretty much Choklit and crust. Sence no one’s sent you Choklit yet, I figured I might as well.
*showers queenie J in ritter sport, toblerone and lots of other chocolate*
You were correct and your teacher wasn’t. You weren’t trying to be disrespectful – you were pointing out the truth. And you’ll get into highschool.
275-bye! see you later! Hope you come back soon!
280- I agree with your first point.
287- pepperjack.
276- it was rated R? hehe. my library had pu the sticker over the rating so my parents didn’t know wat it was rated so bothe me and my little brother watched it. there would have been no way i would have bee nlet with in 50 ft of it had they known it was rated R.
Hey, you-all!
This is Phoenix and her freind Sagy (Sah-GHEE, not soggy, as I said, it means “to uplift” in Hebrew) sitting at the computer at thier school in Canadia.
I like feta cheese!
Does Sagy have anything to say? Yes.
Sagy: well.. hi everybody! i have no idea who you are but Tree talks a lot about you!
Phoenix: Yeah. Well, I’m going to force Sagy to read my Muse collection until she falls victim to Mostly Harmless and becomes a true Muser. Viva la Kokopelli! Viva la Muse! Viva la all that is sweet and squishy! And all that rot.
Today I had my first official French lesson. I actually did sort of well. My teacher says my accent is good, but FISH is my grammar atrocious.
Sagy: uh oh! HELP! just kidding! sounds interesting, though!
Phoenix: *pies Sagy as an initiation ceremony*
Yeah. Sorry, school just let out and we are feeling a bit insane. See y’all!
Oh yeah: DONT GO, MG!! We’ll miss you! Beeeeee…..goooooood…..
291 (Queenie J)- Shock and amazement. To think, that if we’re talking about the same place, and I think we are, that I might have met a Museblogger’s sister! This is exciting. This is very exciting. *random dances*
Chocolate shower! I shall toss random chocolate bars around the thread. If you find them, you can eat them. Be nice and share.
Nonchalantly, I drop a chocolate truffle. You saw nothing.
298 – Do they have golden tickets inside???????
That would be cool.
Name: Capricious Haliba Kalamazoo the great and terrible
Resident of: The city of Ivars -Urania- (if any of you remember Museica)
Sport: Flarkensawsh riding
Secret wish: Well then it wouldn’t be a secret would it?
Just thought you guys might want to know my infoo. Yes foo. Not fo. Cause’ fo is boring.
MOSTLY HARMLESS WILL SUCEED! THE WORLD IS OUR OYSTER! WE WILL CRUSH RESISTANCE LIKE PEANUT BUTTER! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yum. Urg, there are no good pictures of El Museo de Sephardi on the web! I thought it would be nice to have one for my report, since pretty much all the rest of the pretty architecture are cathedrals. I don’t know where the spanish people actually live, seeing as they have all these giant cathedrals covering the country. Do they live in the cathedrals? Where, on the roof? I wanna know. The chocolate posts are making me hungary and I can’t eat anything with the sadistic device(retainer) my orthodontist is making me wear. I also(unfortunatly) found out today you can not chew gum with a retainer in, it was really gross. Hey, did anyone see the Ig nobels? They were awsome.
Visit the computer games thread. I’ll hide choklit around the blog. To claim it, say “Choklit”. The first post saying just that grants the choklit to the poster
291- How does he pronounce chutzpah?
*sends belated chocolate*
299 (THF)- Better. They have chocolate tickets.
