Careful, teo. You should show proper respect.

After consulting the oracle, the guild has determined that the chosen one will in all likelihood be both male and female. As we've yet to determine which gender the chosen one has decided to present to the public, calling him/her "man" is presumptive, dude.

Gosh, I'm getting butterflies, with all this tension building...  A cat in a hat?  Blue bolts from heaven?  The living embodiment of raw and unfettered chaos..?

It's been so very lonely out here, a thousand light years from home...

Raver...

Post by: laughingwillow on October 08, 2008, 01:43:43 PM
Dang, man... Look what the tension brought home!

Great to see you, raver. Been wondering/hoping all was swell with you and yours.

I've got a bad case of cotton mouth. Would someone pass the coke?

Naw, teo, not that kind! Sheesh. Kids now daze.  :lol:

Title: Re: About time....
Post by: laughingwillow on October 08, 2008, 07:55:16 PM
So we conjured up Raver, kids. Not bad work for a day or two.

Now I'm hungry....

Teo, please pass the chips.

Hey, these aren't potato chips. They're from a cactus flesh project I'd been working on. Did you eat the rest of what was there, teo? You did? Ah, man........ Looks like you get to play the chosen one. At least until the real deal comes around. And that should be ANY time....

Raver! Glad to see you finally stop back in. Do stick around for a while.
There are many old folks/original members kicking around still though most only post occasionally... I would love to see that change.

QuoteBuffy:  So "minding" an unstable reality means containing it, right? Means time and logic and everything's just bendy in the brain, am I close?

Willow:  See? Giles said you were awake sometimes...

Buffy:  That's gotta be a little wearing, standing brain-guard twenty-four seven. Who signs up for that gig? I mean, being a watcher isn't the most glamorous, but --

Willow:  You don't volunteer to be a minder, Buffy.



You get chosen.


So...hello from Veracohrland!

Who exactly decided on the change of color scheme around here? I find it very difficult to read things with the almost black-on-black thing providing almost no differentiation between posts. Is it meant to drive away people who don't reeeeeeaaaaalllllllyyyyyyy want to be here?
Title: Re: About time....
Post by: kemp on October 21, 2008, 07:53:27 AM
Actually, most have said they like it  :cool2

We also HAD to change the style... the board was upgraded and the old style had code that would not jive with new board. Some day, maybe PK can help with a new style.

In any case... we do have another skin that folks can use which I posted about here -//http://www.spiritplants.org/the-site-f2/topic3354-15.html#p23092

QuoteOk, I have a style (not fully ready - still working on it) that you all can try out that is mostly white with back text.
It is functional but definitely not finished. You can set it manually in the user control panel, click on Board preferences and then "My board style:".
Click the drop-down arrow and choose "Black Crystals sub" and click submit. This will only set your own board style while the default style remains the current one for everyone else.

Good to see you back Veracohr  :wink:

beware self-proclaimed "the one"s--they are often delusion 2s, 3s, or even 5s.

i once saw a 23 run around in a home-made cape and a burger king crown screaming "I AM THE ONE I HAVE RISEN I AM THE ONE I HAVE RISEN!!!"

They're lines from an issue of Season 8 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the TV show stopped at Season 7, and there's a Season 8 in comic form being published now by Dark Horse Comics).

That little conversation actually has more emotion behind it than you might think if you know the history of the show and the trials Buffy has had as "the Chosen One" (and are a complete geek, of course).
