Dimonite's Decidedly Draconic Devious Discussions: Random Banter #181

The plan is in its final stages and I will not tolerate delays!

Five minutes. That's all the time I can afford to play with you.

As an aside I know the Resident Evil movies are loathed, but the Resident Evil movie based on RE5 was actually fan freaking tastic. That scene where Chris and Mechasheeva attack Wesker, and he fends them both off, was imitated beat for beat in the movie. The movie also featured some REALLY funny scenes. The easiest one to explain is that the T Virus, we get to see the cells related to the virus. They are T Shaped.

The term "blue moon" does not in fact refer to the second full moon in a month, that's a recent usage.

Regardless, I doubt it was.

Both definitions are equally valid.
And, by the more modern definition, the full moon observed on the thirty-first of August, 2012 was a blue moon as the full moon was also in the sky on August the second.

The older definition is only of interest to people who need their lunar calendars to sync up with their solar ones. And seeing as I never have to calculate the date of Easter, it's not important to me.

[Coidzor]

Well, it looks like I'm going to cease being a Coidzor and instead become a Coidzuncle.

...I have no idea how to feel about this.

Does anyone know at what point human embryos absorb their tails, typically? Around 50-something days?

[MoonCat]

Well, at least it's better than the other guy who keeps opening up his trenchcoat. That is NOT a sundial.

There is really only one thing I can think of when you guys meant people who open trenchcoats and sell you thinks.

Whattaya buyin!

Don't recognize the reference.

Your new avatar is very suitable awesome.

Resident Evil 4 has a vendor who sells things to the player.

He's got a distinctive... voice...

THANK YOU COIDZOR, FOR LINKING THAT. I havent seen it all summer. Those guys are great. The Tetris video is good, but OH MY DEAR GOD THE BATMAN ONE IS SO PERFECT. But "]the EBA one is jusst too damn silly.

[Cobra_Ikari]

And all the quotes Zodi and I were making to each other were Albert Wesker's from Resident Evil 5, to which the creepy salesman did not return. =P

What, Wesker also asked that question? ...That's just kinda disturbing.

Naw, I believe the idea is that after I referenced the Marchent, we went to Wesker.

[Coidzor]

Ah, details. I have people to cover that for me. Of course they typically end up as zombie chow but, well, they're interns so they're really cheap in this economy.

It's quite sad that I'm as tired as I am, as there's some obvious dirty joke looking at me here, I feel, and yet I can't quite remember which one.

YOU ARE WELCOME FOR I AM EVIL! MUAHAHAHAHAHA! err... wait... or was that drunk? Hmm... Probably that last one or close to it. I may just be a Coidzuncle now you know.

[MoonCat]

I see...

ION: I just listened to ten minutes of Boyd from Psychonauts. I need to know who wrote his script, and if I can intern for him.

Coidzuncle, let me introduce myself, I'm Cobuncle. It's been around a year and a half for me, so since you're in the club now I'll let you in on the down-low:
It's awesome. Having one family member that has the joy of a child and having that child be your nephew/niece is a feeling. It's hard to put into words. But you know it now, so all's good. Not like those other, non-*username*uncles. They don't have a clue.

And I have absolutely no idea.


ION: It is incredible, unbearably, inconceivably hot down here. Stepping outside, onto a shaded patio, made of dark concrete, with the air-conditioned indoors less than a fraction of a centimeter behind me, for less than a second, and I'm sweating. Please, faeries of fall; hurry it up. I will pay you. The rain sucks and doesn't help at all. It's just hot water. I'm sick of it! Gah!
Still, love it here.
Some days, some days man I just sit in front of a fan and I wonder: how in the world would I ever survive?
I wouldn't. I would die. Like, so quickly. Not even joking. Just, just drop wherever.

On the other hand, I'd rather be hot than cold.

Huh. I rarely get hot (I've been known to play foursquare in a black three-piece suit in 85 degree weather), but when I do I'm completely miserable. And, as a true Minnesotan, I love the cold.

Absolutely terrifying. So much internal conflict that I can't even voice all of it. Kind of exciting too.

Blargh.

Like being able to strip down some from heat.... like bundling up and being OK from cold a bit better though, rather be 50 degrees than 90 or 100. Fur and fat won't leve me get away with wearing even short-sleeved button-ups/oxfords(?) in 80+ degree weather. Plus it has to be below 65 to justify wearing a traditional suit and about 60 to wear a three-piece.

Hey man, there was no way I was earning the nickname "sexy backhand man" without a suit on.

Before I declare you to have no heat tolerance at all, I need to enquire as to what general part of the world you live in.
Because, here, in Queensland, I just turn the fan on and go about my normal business. In fact... I could probably not even bother with the fan and be fine.

[Coidzor]

Haha, well, that certainly sounds like a story. Maybe once I finally lose this last ten pounds and get below 14 stone again my temperature tolerance will change.

...Or I'll just have to learn how to defur.

Well, at my high school, foursquare was Serious Business. Huge groups of people played every day at lunch. One day, since I had open hours for every lunch period, I decided to join a different lunch hour than normal for my foursquare fix. I also happened to be wearing a suit that day, because of a speech I had to give. Now, I'm far from being "sexy" under normal circumstances, but apparently when I get the kill on a backhand slam three times in a row wearing a suit when most of the other kids are sweating in shorts... that changes slightly.

Sir, if there were room I would sig you. Maybe later. I'm hungry.

The humid, unbearable, wet, soggy, bitter, cold, rainy, Lowcountry. You can have your Queen and your sad sand. I live 20 feet from a marsh.
I stress that I love it here.
The air's wet, man, it's wet. Real talk.

Okay... You're complaining about the heat, and you just called it cold...
I see why you like it, it is rather attractive.
Anyway, confusion aside...
I am fortunate to live on the edge of an semi-arid region. Thus, for most of the year, the air remains suitable dry and there is an absence of humidity.
However, I do live near wetlands (but not twenty-feet) and in the Summer storm season it is rather humid.
So, my analysis indicates you have admirable heat tolerance despite the conditions.

[Mutant Sheep]

Chicago is just high enough we get freezing winters, but low enough our summers can pop into the 90's and cause mass wailing and gnashing of teeth.

The summer and spring are melting, the fall is alright, the winter is when I never leave the house because it is judgment on our frail bodies. Heat tolerance rating: admirable, cold tolerance rating: help, I've fallen and I can't get up.

111.
Actually, apparently Illinois got 117, but I'm hoping you both a) don't read this and b) don't click the link.
*coolhotshades*


It's the humidity in the hot seasons that kills, and when it's cold it's not the temperature but the... cold air... equivilant... of humidity, wind I guess. Bitter. Bone-chilling. Murderous. But it only snows, like, never. I'm really tired right now. My locale's air superiority firmly established (or was it my superiority), I'm to bed.

Wasn't that Monkey Island? In any case, Psychonauts was a game that had incredible potential, amazing dialogue, and probably the single biggest waste of an amazing concept. I quit the game over halfway through after being sick of all the terrible parts. I ended up watching an entire playthrough so I could at least enjoy the plot and jokes without having to do all the stupid (such as nearly break my keyboard because of that idiotically designed arrow-digger-upper)

Yeah. Sometime.

It's adorable!

Skeeeeeeeeeeeeps! I haven't seen you in forever!

[Tragic_Comedian]

Sometimes I'm overwhelmed by how beautiful the world is.

...well, fine. Famous to ME, then.

And if not the chatroom, at least hop on gmail chat sometime, it's fun chatting with you. I promise, I don't bite. Unless requested. =3

[MoonCat]

I'll show up sometime tomorrow, before I head off to see the friend I haven't met for nine months and watch Star Wars with him. /excited for tomorrow

ION: I still have an entire book I need to read before school starts. But hey, good news, I just was informed I get to choose which lunch block I have because my class that would determine that is a freeform internet class! So I get to figure out where my friends are and then just join that lunch!

IOON: Hunger Games is a conspiracy by the mattress-makers!

(Goo' nit.)
