A good way to gain familiarity with synonyms is just to drift away in good books. A world of writing awaits you, and it's so grand.

As do you, good sir, for coming up with such an amazing discussion topic. This will allow many OB patrons an opportunity to gain vocabulary skill. Or, if not, OB inhabitants will show familiarity with synonyms. That's what this is all about. That and avoiding crucial grammar bits. Which hurts my brain. In a good way.
-
Now that's not fair. Why, anybody could craft a post without that horrid symbol if that individual didn't talk in our own Anglo-Saxon way of talking. Pshaw.
-
Indubitably! But this is the sort of thing that a group, the Oulippo, try to do. Play with your words! Try grand shining things with words. I think a book was writ, and a long book, too, that had this limitation.

Psh, you're a Communist.

We have a garden out front. Last summer we had flowers all through it, and they've pretty much all come back and are starting to bloom even though they were supposed to be annuals! We also had garlic, tomatoes, and peppers last year, but so far only the garlic is sending up shoots. Mmm garlic greens.
-
Total poppycock. Wait, what? Why do you want to push away that particular symbol? What did it do to you, you charlatan? Why, in my day...

The only other picture I've seen of god was that one where he looked REALLY FUCKING NERDY. I think it's probably still in the 'post your face' thread. This is a big improvement. And Bruce, that's awesome! Life truly gets fun when you're living with your partner. I will attend your success party in spirit.

New topic! The new big news item is the treaty that Obama wants to get passed with Russia to reduce the amount of nukes we both have. However, to get it passed, it's going to have to go through the Senate, and at least one Republican is going to have to vote for this treaty for it to go through. Now, I'm not totally…

QueenQuinlin! Welcome back! I don't think it's really been years, but.... oh well. You're more growed up and ready for more OB shenanigans.

((Rest assured, good gaming patrons, I have not abandoned the RPG. I'm just REALLY fucking busy right now, hopefully it will die down in the near future and I can update again.))

I'm giving a conference presentation this weekend. And one next Wednesday. And one at the beginning of May. I'm excited to have so many things to put into my CV, but I'm a bit overwhelmed.

So radioactive it glows in the dark!

Ezekiel: It's been... how many years? Since you were first abducted and taken to this prison. Sure, there's still plenty of Ferians to kill... at least in theory. But they're slower, dumber, not as REAL as the real thing. And come on... moonlight whenever you wish? It's too easy this way, and you long to escape. And that…

You're not... the next generation of spambot, are you? *poke* No, I guess not. Welcome!!
-
Actinium! I'm dangerously radioactive! Sweet!

Well, we could say continue dividing in half until you get to an established element.
-
Actually, I like it. And everyone has to use Carter's template!
-
At least read and respond to the RPG thread. I have big plans for your character! Also, what spots did you hit?

The man's eyes twinkle and he smiles slightly.

Ah, but that is where you're mistaken. She looks flesh-and-blood human, but that's only part of the story. She's only partly human... the rest of her is mechanical, and her brain is electronic. I've been able to make good success with her biological components, but I must admit that my own mechanical and electrical…

So, if we're talking politics and intrigue, has anyone heard of the whole David Frum fiasco? David Frum, a conservative blogger and one of Bush's speechwriters, made this post about a week ago. He was fired the day after. Here's two articles about it. (Props to Ryan for finding all of this) What do you all think? Is he…

Sexy: Duh duh duh DAAAH! Special skill activated! You race up the big thing's legs! It sure is dark and hairy in here. Jason: There's a mouse on your leg. Is it... trying to sex you? Suicho, Chenda, Vertigo, Spoony: "Yes, dear sir, of course. There's plenty of refreshment in your quarters. Please follow these two…

STEAMPUNK! 8-BIT! FLOWERS!

Suicho, Chenda, and Vertigo: The kind-looking man laughs. "Oh please, Suicho. You're making me out to be some omniscient deity. No, it's not that, I...." his eyes light up and his gaze quickly snaps to the pedestal. "Oh dear, oh dear, busy busy. Excuse me, for just one moment. As he walks toward the pedestal, he whispers…

It's true. Though the show is fast-paced and tense, it does do everything it can to justify conservative paranoia that there are terrorists everywhere and so any soft-hearted "liberal" policies on our part are just making it harder for the REAL heroes to do their jobs.
-
I liked them, but then we got finished with season 4 and I just had no desire to continue watching the show.
-
I think it would be fun, especially since, unlike last time, I don't live with my parents.

Thank you for sharing in my pain... *SPEW* *PUKE* *VOMIT*

While we're on the subject of things we'll be hearing for the rest of our lives, I love the line that anyone who will benefit from this legislation is either lazy, a minority (who by default doesn't deserve help), or for some other reason doesn't deserve it because "everyone has all the same opportunities that I had." My…
