Welcome, everyone! Yay!!!
And I realize, if I post this post just saying the above three words, it is a bit pointless. Well, actually it probably isn’t to pointless, because that is what the whole thread is about….but I always feel like I have to say something more substantial. Hmm… *thinks about what to say*
Happy New Year and Welcome! *pies*
This is pointless? Then what’s the point of being here? Oh. Wait. That IS the point. That there’s no point in being here. I’m confused. That’s the point of me saying this. I think.
Yeah.
2 – I believe the point is to be sure that any new Musers who find this website can…..well………say hi, maybe? Wel, if they have any questions, they could ask here.
Hopefully we’ll get a ton of new musers this month, thanks to kiki. And to all, Welcome!
Hey, fellow newcomers. Although it’s a new month…I’ll pretend I’m an experienced oldie who knows everything. They’ll never guess… xD Welcome!
apple pies@newbies.
Hi
Hi.
Hello, PinkBonnyLass and Weirdalyankovic! *pies both* Welcome to the Museblog! Post, rant, and have fun. But please try to make future posts a bit longer, kay? Those are just general museblog rules.
Hello. *pies all with chocolate coconut pie which might actually be a cake but oh well it doesn’t matter because it’s yummy*
GAPAs, can I be on the Who’s Here page? Please? Pretty Please? With a cherry on top? And whipped cream if you like. And hot fudge. And sprinkles! You can’t forget the sprinkles.
Whoa. Upsurge in newbies. Probably because of Kiki’s letter…
: ) a pie in between smileys to all newbies 8 )
Newbies shall be brutally pied. PIES! Yum. Cherry.
Yeah, can I be on the Who’s Here page?? I was going to ask but then I thought maybe four months and three weeks (or something like that) wasn’t long enough to be on the page… but please, maybe, if you had some time could you put me there? Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou! Squee!
Ok. To new MBers (MBers means Muse Bloggers):
Squee! Is an exclamation of joy or excitement.
w00t is the equivalent of ‘yay’ or ‘yippee’.
We use pie as a verb. You have probably noticed.
All you have to do is be yourself and not make too many pointless posts. But don’t worry: there is no punishment if you accidentally make one. It’s just something to avoid if you can.
That’s all I can think of for now…
Hi Newbies! I’d like to pretend that I’m an experienced MBer, but I only joined last month. Still learning the ropes, but so far it’s been absolutely fr00dy! (fr00dy – equivilant of “COOL!” or “AWESOME!”) Hope you enjoy MB!
SupremeMuser2000 I REFUSE 2 b pied.Ha. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Okay,out of system.
Well,cherry is yummy. ! . . . . . . . . (licks lips) yum.
Yah, why am I not on the Who’s here list? Tommorow I will have been here for 2 months.
no idea . . . . . . .. wait a sec . . . . . . . .what is “here” ? I have no idea
18 – Dunno. Maybe it was selected for only the first people who went on Museblog or something.
Yah. I’m New
*pie museperson* this will be a long mounth
*pis all the newbies, including but not limited to: museperson, cra-ztootsierool, PinkBonnyLass, and weirdalyankovic* 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288…
I’m surprised there aren’t more newbies, but I suppose they would have come with the implicit association test or MG’s letter if they were interested.
Hah. I joined last year. -so experienced- ;D
-apple pies everyone, including oldbies and myself-
23 ~ I expect we’ll be getting a lot more…I’ve been meaning to get on here for a year or something, but it wasn’t till…er…last year that I finally did.
*pies everyone who I haven’t yet pied*
welcome!!!
I have been here since March. hmm. I would count the days, but I really don’t feel like it right now…
curious and questioning u did NOT just pie me
:-X
OK, GAPAs, thanks for the honor of the Who’s Here page. And I hate to be picky, but could you at least get the date right? I first posted on the Welcome Newcomers december thread on the 21st, not the 27th. Thank you GAPAs!!!!!!!!!
Going to the random thread.
5 newbies already! Probably kiki’s letter. *pies newbies, especially cra-ztootsierool just because he/she/it objected (which is it, btw?)*
They stopped adding to the WHo’s Here list after Muselog became more out of control, with people who posted constantly for a week or so then dissapeared and stuff, it would have been more painfull then helpfull. It takes a lot of effort, I’m sure. They’re all alphabetical too. Maybe if everyone went back and listed their name and first day they posted, we could make a list for them to put in. That way they wouldn’t have to do anyoof the work.
30 ~ That’s weird. I was on there the day I first posted.
The Who’s Here list hasn’t shut down, but it does get bogged down from time to time.
They could program it so every username created is added to the who’s here list the day they first post. Of course, that may not be possible, and would probably be too much work for a simple list. So I’m going with Jadestone’s idea.
so i have about a gazillion pies already thrown at me? let’s just hope that koko doesn’t show up.
what the heck is this ‘kiki’s letter’ that everyone is talking about?
Have you gotten your january muse? There’s a letter in the mail section from kiki, who’s a blogger. she mentioned the MB in the letter, so we figured some newbies might’ve seen it and come because of that. The same thing happened when monty wrote a letter too. Now that was insane i hope we don’t get that many at once again. Not that i don’t love pieing newbies. *pies countolaf*
36-it’s odd that you think mg cassed the great museblog overflow.
I still think it’s that contest.
cra-ztootsierool ,PinkBonnyLass ,and weirdalyankovic get pied with weird, pink bunny-creme insude-out pies.
Hey all Muser people!
I’m Emily and.. errr.. just joined.
Found this from the letter that kiki wrote..
Sounds fun, and can’t wait to talk with you all!
Rawr.
~Emilythefierce~
Welcome to MuseBlog, emilythefierce.
It’s usually pretty quiet on the blog at this time of day so you might have to wait a bit to hear from the other MuseBloggers.
I’m glad you found us. — Rosanne
*pies emilythefierce*
Welcome to MB!!! I like your name
*pies ETF* Welcome to the MB!
*pies purplefinch and kiki back*

I won’t be on that late again… I was just reading Muse at late and wanted to get here as quick as possible! Haha
Hello!
). *gets pie ready to throw at the first thing I see* 
I like this blog already.
You now have a (sort of) inventor on the blog!
I 7 inventions I want to make and each one is either thought out completely or in the thought prosess (But I don’t have the knowledge of math, engineering and extreme surgery to make them…or the money / stuff I need to build them but with help I can have each of them completed! (No money donations please. I need knowledge first
44- WELCOME!! *pies*
*catches in mouth* Yum! banana cream pie!…right? hahaha
emilythefierce- You won’t be so feirce after I pie you.

SupremeMuser- Mooohahaha

Ok.. my post above did not work for some reason.
I had more written… Oh well, guess I need to figure this all out better.
So, as I wanted to say above, welcome all new musers! I’m not in a position to welcome, considering, I just joined, but yeah.
*free pies for all*
EMILY THE FIERCE- who will always remain fierce, no matter how many pies are thrown at her. xD
44 – Inventor! fr00dy! I used to spend a ton of time inventing and designing stuff a few years ago, but then I left my notebook somewhere in Tennesee and haven’t done much of it since. Anyway *PIES krazykookamany* Welcome to Museblog!

*pies all newbies*
Ahhh I haven’t read Kiki’s letter because my January issue still hasn’t come! :[

52- ahhh I love your name :]
Llama llama duck.
hello! everyone..
dude.. i have not gone to this place in like, a year. a lot has changed,,, *pies everyone for the heck of it*
response to ebeth the stalker (#36): i recently subscribed to muse but haven’t gotten my first issue yet.
YAY!!! *pies all newbies* I’m HYPER…. SQUEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! *giggles*
Hello, newbies….there are quite a few of you since the last time I was here, so……. *launches multiple Swedish Fish pies into the air, hoping they will land of the newbies* Welcome!
hey, does anyone know is the think i got on the cover of the last muse (it says i need to re-subscribe)
well… some mags put that on everyones once a year (not that that is bad!) but do i really need to? i thought i got like, 3 years last time i subscribed..
61- I think it’s once a year they do that when your subscription starts to run out. And no, you only pay for one year at a time.
60-Gross! swedish fish!
56-what’s a llama duck?
Everyone-SPLAT
no matter how many n00bs there may be, non have a name as cool as mine.
63- Tis a brilliant song.
The llama song. Though I don’t feel like reciting right now. Can’t remember the words ;]
64- snort.
The llama song has cropped up on the blog many times. Here’s one:
https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=479#comment-3
63-whaddya mean gross? I lurve swedish fish! *swedish fish pies weirdalyankovic*
’tis a froody name indeed fridgey. Icicle strings. Life. Whoo.
Right…yes i am asleep…no i’m not on drugs…well besides ibyprofen or however you spell it but that doesn’t count. and actually it’s probably worn off by now. huzzah for my lack of stomachache, finally. now i’m just falling asleep. Grrr…life hates me.
Just because i can…(and because i haven’t in quite a while)
here’s a llama, there’s a llama
and another little llama
fuzzy llama, funny llama
llama, llama, duck
that’s enough for now. The GAPA’d probably give out some zappage if i did the whole song for you.
It’s bleeping RAINING…of course. It’s always bleeping raining now. i feel like a freakin brit. Want snow…*sobs*
wow i just remembered we may have ice cream downstairs *drools* then again, we might have eaten it all. but there’s a chance…off i go…
oh yah, vun more thing, your mudder was a hamstah and eat your weetabix.
that was two more things, but whatevs.
Virtual choklit donations are most definitely accepted.
Moo
*pïës*
Was that the right HTML?
67 – Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!! It snowed today!
Well, only a few inches and I didn’t get back from assistant teaching an elemetary school string program early enough to go snowboarding, but IT STILL SNOWED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
*pies all newbies*
THE LLAMA SONG
Here’s a llama there’s a llama, and another little llama
fuzzy llama, funny llama, llama llama duck
llama llama cheesecake llama,tablet brick potato llama,llama llama mushroom llama, llama llama duck
I was once a treehouse, I lived in a cake, but I never saw the way the orange slayed the rake. I was only three years dead, but it told a tale, and now listen little child to the safety rail
did you ever see a llama, kiss a llama, on the llama, llama’s llama, tastes of llama, llama llama duck
half a llama, twice the llama, not a llama, farmer llama, llama in a car, alarm a llama llama duck
is that how it’s told now?
is it all so old?
is it made of lemon juice, orange ankle cold?
now my song is getting thin, I’ve run out of luck
time for me to retire now and become a duck!
HAHAHA!!!!!!!! THE LLAMA SONG!!!!!!!!!!!! w00t!!!!!!!
It hasn’t snowed here. booo!!! I WANT SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have not had snow here at all. But then again that could be becuase I’m in a big city filled with cars and their exaust. New York City.
64- Your name’s really not that cool. Well, not as cool as my new name. Unless you’re talking abotu the ‘Frigid’ part of your name, in which case, that’s a terrible joke.
70- Love that llama song.
+71- har, we’re having six inches right now. Still going by the looks of it. Didn’t think we would get snow, but the weather sure can be unpredictable.
72- It’s not the name that matters. It’s what’s inside.
Ok, forget that.
All our names are cool. In one way or another.
i like the name frigidsymphony. it’s interesting.
no snow. High of 50. huzzah…
oh well, if it can’t snow it might as well be warm. i’m not complaining. too much.
73- M &M’s are my favorite candy, so if it is what’s inside that matters, then you are filled with choklit. Did I mention how much I love to eat M &Ms? Yum……
Maybe I am filled with choklit…wait a minute.
EEKkk!
*runs away in terror*
Then if I ate you, would that still be considered cannibalism? Unless you happen to be an M & M that can type….. then that’s just weird.
73 – AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *runs away from the computer and starts yelling at the sky for some sonw*
77 – i am now typing with an mnm in each hand and my fingers and the keyboard are turning chocolatey.
My conversion of my friend to Musery was successful! She says her dad is subscribing her…she should be around here soon-ish. ^^
Hi im a as you know a new comer, and Im related to Shadow cat.
*ducks to avoid onslaught of flying pies*
Welcome! 8D -pies successfully-
77- No, I’m that M&M you see in those commercials. The one who can type and talk. But then again, since I’m so humanlike, maybe it would be considered cannibalism.
“Everything in this room is eatable. Even you and I. But that, my children, is called cannibalism, and is frowned upon in most societies.”
Hello Tominator!
*cherry pies fly through the air*
79 – Yay! Hooray! Did my post you showed her have anything to do with it? And is she going to come onto Museblog anytime soon? Yippee for Margaret’s freind! I have a freind named Margaret. Today during Science class we finished growing alum crytals from supersaturated solutions and she ate one and said that her tounge felt like a kinda-fuzzy-but-kinda-not-fuzzy-penguin. She’s awesome.

Welcome! Yay! I’m sorry nobody’s posted here for awhile, but there hasn’t been a newbie for a few days, so HI! 
I’ll go on other threads and tell people that there’s someone new! I only started MB a few weeks ago but dang, I’m addicted. 
Go say that you’re new on other threads and some people might notice. Most of the time people don’t look at the names, so post something drastic like I”M NEW HERE!!!!!!! PIE ME!!!!!!!! 
i DID! how do you do those cool smiley face things?
And there are a lot more on HG2MB at the top of the page.
*pies all the newbies* Velcome with a spiffy v. Don’t die.

thanks
*pies everyone who hasn’t yet received a welcome pie from me*
Welcome to MuseBlog!
How do you make little faces like that?
Never mind!
I’m so stupid I didn’t read the blog 4 things up! :opps:
I am going ice skating tomarrow! -Thursday
My half birthday is on Valentines day
♥
*pies idiot and duck* Hello! Ice skating is fun. I go several times a week, but that’s for a sport… funfunfun. *pies more*
*pies newcomers with pumpkin pie*
We should have a creativity thread
I’m new here, and (shows how much I know), I just posted stuff on the jubilee or whatever instead of here saying I’m new. God i’m stupid. Well, anyway, im new, so HELP ME HERE! I’ve read the rules and HG2MB, but, hey, I’m ready to start learin the ropes!
Oh, another thing (this is in the jubilee thread too (sad smily face is supposed to go here if I could remember how to make one)). I’ve been looking for something in the Muse Mail section. It’s where either Uraina or a Muser said that 2+2 or 2×2 equaled 5, and explained how. Ive been looking for this FOREVER, so if someone could tell me where it is, that would be GREAT (happy smily face goes here if I could remember how to make one) Thanx!
Augwich – I’m not really sure what you’re looking for. I could look for the question in the magazine, though, it may help me help you look for it. What issue was it in?
MuseBlog is, as the title suggests, a place where “musers mingle,” and talk about “stuff.” We talk about things in the magazine, and other random things. Every few days there will be a new thread where we can all discuss.
The awesome amazing GAPAs (Great and Powerful Administrators) (or OEADS) (or MAP), who moderate every post before it is shown here. They are: Rosanne Spector, Robert Coontz, Paul Baker, and Rebecca Lasley.
Musers can’t post pictures on the blog, but if you would like a picture to be shown on the blog, you can email it to the GAPAs and they can put it on for you (if they choose to). The January Jubilee thread, part 2 had a lot of pictures of muses that people carved out of soap, and all those pictures were sent to the GAPAs before they were put on the website.
The best way to find out what’s going on here, I think, is to just look around. Read other things on the fan page, read previous threads, etc.
Welcome! *pies*
Oh, I forgot to say a few things… (sorry for the double post, feel free to pie me).
CTTTTHMV (Common Thread Type Things That Have Many Versions):
–Random threads. Every month there is a new random thread. This month’s thread is called “January Jubilee.” It always shows up at the top of the page when you first come to MuseBlog, and it has a picture with it. The random thread usually has many versions (part 1, part 2, part 3, etc.) I actually made a graph of all the random threads, now that I think of it. Maybe I’ll send it to the GAPAs. Well, anyway, the random threads are random, because no muser could live without a random thread. (Well, we could. no, wait. maybe. Um, hmm. I think I’m just confuzzling myself).
-Discussion threads: Discussion threads were created last year, as an alternative to the random thread. Some musers were getting agitated about the random thread, and how nobody could keep a discussion. So we created discussion threads, (morphing chameleon threads), where we would talk about something, and you had to talk about that thing, not go off on some thing saying, “OMGFIRSTPOSTKEWLIHADAGOODDAYINSKOOLTODAY” Discussion threads sometimes have different versions, but usually there aren’t very many.
-Muse Roll Call/Discussion: Every month, there is a muse roll call and a discussion on that issue of muse. There aren’t (usually) different parts of that, but they occur every month.
-Pie Wars: The continuing pie war never ceases, and every once and awhile there is a new thread for it.
-RRRs: Round Robin ‘Riting is a thread where one person writes part of a story, then another person writes the next part, then another person writes the next part, etc. They’re really fun (although I can never get around to doing it because of stupid homework), and the finished products are really cool.
-Birthday Threads: Every month, there is a birthday thread were every wishes a happy birthday to all musers who have birthdays that month. On the day of each person’s birthday, there is also a thread telling everyone to go to the birthday thread to wish everyone a happy birthday. It’s a museblog tradition to wear the person’s favorite color on their birthday.
-Writing/Reading: There are always Writing, Reading, Poetry, Songs, etc. threads floating around the blog. Musers like literature.
-Money-related: Whenever there are muses for sale on Ebay or there is information about the muser-loves-company store, there is usually a thread about it.
That’s all I can think about at the moment…but I’m sure there’s more.
weeee im new! foiund this site in the january edition! hi! hi! hi! i love hedgehogs! wwwwweeeeeeeeee hi hi hi! cokmeon gimme da pie!
Thanks a bunch!
Thats a…*whew*…whole lot of stuff here…
I don’t know what issue the 2+2=5 thing was in; thats what I was wondering. See, i’m missing some issues (SOB), and I can’t seem to find it in one of the issues I have. I was just wondering if it was in one of the …missing… ones, or I had just overlooked it. Oh well.
Since I feel like throwing a pie at someone, this is to the next person who posts on this thread: BANANA CREAM!!!!! *SPLUT*
hedgehogs?? did domeone say HEDGEHOGS?!?
Wwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, I love hedgehoges too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(sorry, got excited)
Just realized…
Guess I got the pie I threw…
Oops…
(117),
I think the “proof” you’re talking about appeared on the Muse Mail page of the November/December 2005 issue. Some Musers discussed it on the thread for that issue:
https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=100#comment-20
i love hedgehogs theyre my fave animal! (notice my name/\)
I’ve only posted here twice, but I haven’t introduced myself. There’s probably not a chance I won’t get pied, but can it please not be a coconut cream pie? [IMG]http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m232/Kuro_Haiiro/1ptgno.gif[/IMG]
Huh.. I guess custom emotes don’t work here…
Little known fact: You can look at other peoples posts b4 there moderated by posting under there name. I hope you don’t mind. I should email WordPress about this. –
DY
124-Hmm. That is… interesting.
124-Hmm. That is… interesting. Though I think if there’s a way to stop it the GAPA will try to figure it out…
126- yeah, the way to stop it is called “having the courtesy not to impersonate people without their prior concent”. Grow up, people.
That’s something I didn’t know, and to tell the truth, you had me a little confused. @_____@
It’s kind of weird that you can post under other people’s name though… Kind of unsettling.
It seems that most of the newbies post on the new peoples board for a few weeks, then mystically vanish into thin air. Geez people! Be dedicated!
What is unsettling?
Well hello everyone. *sarcastic* I just can’t wait to get pied *sarcastic*.
I *Heart* Muse.
Oh yeah I’ll try and stay dedicated. Maybie 3 posts a day? Sound good…? Mmm kay.
*PIES BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
i will be da dedcatified totally!
I don’t think I’d like being impersonated…
Mmmm pie. Me loves pie.
Hi everyone, I’m Krickets sis! She says shes going to decorate this boys locker with all kinds of girly stuff, and the boy always hangs out with a group of boys, now that is going to be funny!
oh and administrater peoples, i do not have the same email as my sis, it’s an M not an N so stop putting me down next to her name in the Who’s Here thingy. she was complaining about that so i thought that i’d better mention. so… yeah.
Hey, guys, don’t impersonate people…it’s not nice. Seriously. Way to start out, #S…making other MBers think you’re a creep. Oh, well, I now you’re not, and will testify in your favor if necessary.
Everyone, meet my good friend, ####S e n b o n z a k u r a####! He’s my friend in real life, and I knew him before I even came to MuseBlog! Now I just have to get him to read the mag….
