The scary part is how much of this is true:

Quote

Cut From GR Chat:
EI/IiIIEI: Hey mag i got a question
Mag Steelgla: yay
EI/IiIIEI: its about a tactic
      Darkk: if it's about the monty python, don't answer it
EI/IiIIEI: What is the monty Python i thought it was one thing and then darkk said it wasn't
EI/IiIIEI: no
EI/IiIIEI: answare
      Darkk: the last thing we need is another lamer
EI/IiIIEI: tell me
<< -={R@GE}=- closed Quake 3 game 'q3ut 1.27 / cable' >>
Mag Steelgla: what did you think it was?
EI/IiIIEI: Hey Sargs last name is the same as a race in EVO
Mag Steelgla: yay!
<< -={R@GE}=- started Quake 3 game 'q3ut 1.27 / cable' >>
Mag Steelgla: another person makes the connection
EI/IiIIEI: I thought it was spining around the ship
<< splatterguts has joined the room >>
EI/IiIIEI: Are you connectioned?
Mag Steelgla: well, you thought wrong
EI/IiIIEI: And Darkk
EI/IiIIEI: said you could tell me
<< Captain Pharris is AFK left GameRanger >>
      Darkk: I didn't
EI/IiIIEI: Yeah well he said to ignor what he says latter becuase he cant help himself
Mag Steelgla: eminem, when you get a car, try having egg-throwing wars between your car and somebody else's car
Mag Steelgla: you'll probably end up using the Monty Python then
<< -=PimpingCyber=- is now known as |ES| PimpingCybe >>
<< |ES| PimpingCybe is now known as |ES| PimpingCyber >>
EI/IiIIEI: Can't i just use my bike?
<< splatterguts has left the room >>
EI/IiIIEI: Man i hate bikes though.
      Darkk: no, and it needs to be red cars
Mag Steelgla: nah, bikes aren't fast enough
      Darkk: remeber that
      Darkk: red cars
EI/IiIIEI: red cars?
      Darkk: convertables are better
Mag Steelgla: red cars
Mag Steelgla: yep
EI/IiIIEI: humm my moms car is read
EI/IiIIEI: *red
Mag Steelgla: is it a convertible?
EI/IiIIEI: Yeah
Mag Steelgla: how strong are the headlights? you'll need strong headlights
EI/IiIIEI: But its sort of old will it still do?
      Darkk: sure
Mag Steelgla: how old?
EI/IiIIEI: Back lights or front?
Mag Steelgla: front
      Darkk: make sure you use jumbo eggs, too
EI/IiIIEI: i dont know but we have had it for some time
      Darkk: it only works for that size
Mag Steelgla: yeah
<< Carl Winslow is now known as |ES| joe >>
EI/IiIIEI: My dad owns a farm so i can get some from there
EI/IiIIEI: Jumbo ey?
EI/IiIIEI: Why?
EI/IiIIEI: It might hurt the car.
      Darkk: in that case, try to get ones laid by chickens with lots of black feathers
      Darkk: they work really well
<< |ES| joe left GameRanger >>
EI/IiIIEI: oh, what should the other car be?
Mag Steelgla: large chickens with lots of black feathers
      Darkk: oh, and make sure both cars have Goodyear tires
      Darkk: both red, preferably convertables
      Darkk: with Goodyear tires
      Darkk: also, both drivers must wear false mustaches
EI/IiIIEI: How many people in a car?
      Darkk: as many as you can fit in
EI/IiIIEI: No what would that make for mustaches?
EI/IiIIEI: Do we though the eggs?
      Darkk: of course, silly
Mag Steelgla: throw them at the other car, yes
EI/IiIIEI: is it in the street or a Parking lot?
      Darkk: street
EI/IiIIEI: Busy?
Mag Steelgla: but you can go in parking lots for short times
      Darkk: preferably rural roads
      Darkk: with high speed limits and low trafic
EI/IiIIEI: i dont know what rural means
      Darkk: country
EI/IiIIEI: Oh
Mag Steelgla: out in the country, away from the city
EI/IiIIEI: Ok, why the mustaches?
Mag Steelgla: you'll see
      Darkk: you'll see when you do it
Mag Steelgla: it's very importan
Mag Steelgla: *important
EI/IiIIEI: Should we be stoned or Drunk or something?
      Darkk: probably not
Mag Steelgla: a couple people can be, but not too many
EI/IiIIEI: The drivers?
Mag Steelgla: not the drivers
      Darkk: I wouldn't say so
      Darkk: maybe the primary throwers
Mag Steelgla: oh, and you need to put an open can of rubber cement standing up on the hood of each car
EI/IiIIEI: What is the point?
Mag Steelgla: you'll end up using the monty python maneuver
      Darkk: yeah
EI/IiIIEI: Just a small can becaouse my mom might get mead.
EI/IiIIEI: *mad
EI/IiIIEI: is that ok?
Mag Steelgla: it's fine
      Darkk: sure
<< Lord of Stratego has joined the room >>

<< HK MSG 90 has joined the room >>
  HK MSG 90: DILDO

Mag Steelgla: and avoid 45
      Darkk: if you want to
<< HK MSG 90 has left the room >>
<< Evil Ash has joined the room >>
      Darkk: or if the eggs smell bad

      Darkk: probably more
<< {mAc}TTM started Quake 2 game 'mAc eh?' >>
<< {mAc}TTM closed Quake 2 game 'mAc eh?' >>

EI/IiIIEI: 5 mins?
      Darkk: as long as you can keep it up
Mag Steelgla: until you run out of eggs
<< {mAc}TTM closed Quake 2 game 'mAc eh?' >>
EI/IiIIEI: Should i go in back or front?
Mag Steelgla: and be sure that there are yellow lines on the road
      Darkk: probably you should alternate
      Darkk: try to keep time spent in front and spent behind exactly equal
EI/IiIIEI: I am simulating this in my mind and i dont think this monty python is a very good thing
EI/IiIIEI: Hold on I gota print this out, is that all the info i should know?
EI/IiIIEI: Can my older friend drive?
      Darkk: pretty much
      Darkk: sure
Mag Steelgla: well, it's slightly different in ev. for instance the red convertibles are the ships in ev, stuff like that
      Darkk: unless you do it on friday the 13th
      Darkk: in which case you'll need wigs
EI/IiIIEI: Thats today
<< Haste is now known as Haste-brb 5mins >>
      Darkk: yep
Mag Steelgla: yeah, so if you do it today, wear wigs
EI/IiIIEI: But why?
      Darkk: wait, it's saturday here
EI/IiIIEI: I have sort of long hair anyway
Mag Steelgla: it's just an important part of the process
      Darkk: you'd know instantly if you did it on friday the 13th without them
Mag Steelgla: then wear a short wig
<< (ÅwAw) §undowN has joined the room >>
<< (ÅwAw) §undowN has left the room >>
EI/IiIIEI: but what if the cops come?
      Darkk: say you're practicing the monty python
Mag Steelgla: anybody with long hair should wear short wigs, anybody with short hair should wear long wigs
Mag Steelgla: and if he tries to give you a ticket, egg him!
EI/IiIIEI: What if someone has a mustache?
EI/IiIIEI: Whats the rubber cement for?
      Darkk: well, then they wear band-aids over it
      Darkk: you'll see when you do this
EI/IiIIEI: It will make everyone messy
EI/IiIIEI: and sticky
EI/IiIIEI: I dont think i should do this
Mag Steelgla: yeah, but it'll be fun, and you'll learn the monty python
EI/IiIIEI: have you guys done it?
      Darkk: an important part of the process
Mag Steelgla: of course
EI/IiIIEI: I will ask Slug.
EI/IiIIEI: really?

EI/IiIIEI: How come this is the first i heard of it?
      Darkk: 'cuz it's top-secret
Mag Steelgla: people sometimes don't want to talk about it
      Darkk: once people know it, they dominate
Mag Steelgla: and so they keep it top secret and don
EI/IiIIEI: Oh does slug know?
      Darkk: I wouldn't know
Mag Steelgla: *don't tell anybody so they'll be able to beat everybody who doesn't know it
EI/IiIIEI: Well its not fair.
Mag Steelgla: yeah, you'll have to ask slug if he knows
EI/IiIIEI: They should know
EI/IiIIEI: why dont you guys post it?
Mag Steelgla: i know, many of the EV people aren't fair
Mag Steelgla: actually, Darkk and I were planning on posting this

      Darkk: learning it for yourself is important
Mag Steelgla: everything will make sense when you try it
      Darkk: you've got to actually do it
EI/IiIIEI: But i will get in trouble
      Darkk: don't worry
      Darkk: they'll understand when you explain
Mag Steelgla: you can do it and not tell anybody
      Darkk: or that  Posted Image

      Darkk: I guess you can
EI/IiIIEI: I still dont get it.

Mag Steelgla: i know, I never got it until I tried it
EI/IiIIEI: Why dont i see people doing it outside?
      Darkk: cuz they don't want you to  Posted Image
EI/IiIIEI: Just tell me about it and i proply will
EI/IiIIEI: i am pretty smart
      Darkk: besides, they do it on deserted roads
Mag Steelgla: yeah, if they used it all the time when people were watching, everybody would learn it
      Darkk: no, it's something you have to do
      Darkk: you have to do it or see it done
EI/IiIIEI: Come on just tell me
      Darkk: I wish I could
Mag Steelgla: i do, too
<< Crusher2002 is now known as Crusher2002FIN >>

EI/IiIIEI: Just tell me!
Mag Steelgla: the mafia would terrorize my family and take away everything I owned, even the clothes on my back
EI/IiIIEI: How come i dont find anything about it on the internet?
EI/IiIIEI: But whats the mafia have to do with it
Mag Steelgla: because it's illegal to post it on the internet in all countries
EI/IiIIEI: Hey is this like that brain spider thing?
Mag Steelgla: they use the monty python a lot, and don't want other people knowing it
<< Crusher2002FIN is now known as Crusher2002.FIN >>
Mag Steelgla: what's the brain spider thing?
EI/IiIIEI: Well there are alot of illigal things on the internet, child porn is and its easy to find.
      Darkk: yes
EI/IiIIEI: So why cant i find this?
      Darkk: but the reason is that they spend all their time enforcing this
Mag Steelgla: yeah, but there are very strict and terrible punishments for posting the monty python on the internet
      Darkk: you can't hear the details until you're an adult
EI/IiIIEI: does andrew know about it?
Mag Steelgla: andrew welch, you mean?
EI/IiIIEI: yeah
Mag Steelgla: he probably does, I'm not sure

Mag Steelgla: yeah, matt burch probably told him what we just told you

      Darkk: trust us, if you do that, you will use the monty python
      Darkk: and you will understand

I didn't need to tell you Eminem, it only took you a day or so to figure out something was wrong, and I've got screenshots to prove it!

Wish I was there for the brain-spider thing.

Remember, if EMINEM asks you how the Monty Python is done, the correct response is:
"Well, do you have a red convertible?"
And if he tries to make you think that he already knows, the correct responses are:
"What color convertible do you use?"
"How many eggs do you stock up?"
"Has the paste ever hit you?"

He'll get mad at any of them...probably. If he doesn't, you need something else along the theme...

Werent they something about how artfully Ruhk killed him?

I think yoiu have to be a mutant to like Sci-fi and not read Zahn. His books got me hooked on Star Wars; I had enjoyed the movies but I never really got into the books, now I own like 38 of them Heir to the Empire being the first one in my collection.

Zahn is a genius. Anyone who hasn't read Zahn and likes sci-fi just plain needs help. He wrote my favorite books and I pray he writes more.

By the way, Thrawn's last words were... "But, it was so artfully done."

Oh don't worry. I don't specifically like those books.

I dislike Star Wars in general.

Now, I know someone who will personally kill you if you haven't read Card...
His complaint about every single book (except one) is "It's not Ender's Game!"
And will promptly beat you over the head with it if you disagree.

Msg 219:23:6 with the message "Ender's Game Sucks!"
I want to see his reaction.

I don't read spin-off book series. So no, I haven't read any Zahn.

And yes, I have read Ender's Game, and it's a good novel, but nothing to obsess over.

I liked Ender's Game but the rest of the series was pretty crappy. Xenocide and the rest of them just werent any fun, Ender's Shadow on the ather hand was imaginative and stuck to the military academy feel.

I'm not the one that obsesses over it.

What I like to do is take out my copy of "Speaker for the Dead" and dangle it in front of his face. He just flails widely, but he'll never get it if I have room to maneuver.

Please, when you get a reply, post it here. I want to see his reaction too. If he tries to attack you (which he invariably will), I'll point out that you're the basic [Ares] galaxy, and we've got it in our name. But get some defense anyways, I can't guarantee that he'd recall.

Yah, his books all tend to start out slow and then get really, really good at the end.
