What if people who can lick their own Elbow are Epics and we've entered the age of Calamity?  :blink: 
Lark, do you feel any overwhelming urges to dehumanize or mistreat your fellow humans because they lack your divine elbow licking ability?

Elbow-licking as an Epic power….

 

…well, I suppose Calamity's parents did tell him to start small….

Would you like someone to fetch you a cup of tea, while someone else sneaks over to the Worst Fears thread to read your response there? :ph34r:

I never posted on the Worst Fears thread. :ph34r:

 

Because everyone already knows about your crippling fear of [DATA EXPUNGED].

 

 

Seriously, I don't get your problem with expunged data, but everybody knows about it.

Well I can rest easy in the knowledge that no one will ever discover my weakness. *Smug grin*

Yes, yes, I fear expunged data more than anything. You see, when I was a little girl, my mother never allowed me to read the nutrition facts on cereal boxes.

What? Not every Emotionally Scarring Backstory™ has to be long. :P

Makes sense, for a librarian. She probably has nightmares about it... a precocious student will ask for help to find a book that will open her mind and unlock her potential, so Twi goes to that cabinet with all the cards set in order to the Dewey Decimal System, finds out where the book is at, but when she gets there.... it is gone! And the dream continues, she can not find any of the books! Have they been misplaced? Sold of at a "Friends of the Library" sale? No, they are just not there, but it should be there! And as she slowly goes mad, Rod Serling appears to give his ending monologue, for Twi has ended up in a library on the corner of Main St in....the Twilight Zone (Sans Sparkles)

 

And though random, that story may not be fact, so to justify the existence of this post in this thread: German students apparently prefer to read Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason" in Norman Kemp Smith's English translation because Kant's original German reads like "it was produced by a brain tumor".

Are you an angel or a mutant? :o:P

  

What if Lark is a mutant angel? O_O

Lack of concern over impending moral doom, excitement over newfound powers.

Lark's Epic status: Confirmed.  :ph34r:

I too can lick my elbow, excuse my while I go and edit my worst fears post. For no reason in particular. :ph34r:

I can attest to the fact that I can lick my elbow and that I have not had any episodes of psychopathic or murderous outrage. 

 

Meanwhile, on topic:

 

Some historians draw sketches of romance between Johannes Brahms and Clara Schumann. This romance is speculated to be in the form of what is colloquially referred to as a "crush".

As is always the case when the Reckoners RP invades a topic it quickly moves from whatever it's intended topic is to some form of random insanity and/or pugs/ponies. :P

Wow. This thread is really derailed. If I can just find a random enough fact then maybe I can get it back on track. . . Hmm. . . I know the perfect one!

In 1919 a very large (we're talking gargantuan here) container of molasses broke somewhere in North Boston. A wave of molasses rushed through the streets killing 21 and injuring 150 people.

I am not making this up.

Just imagine in the afterlife people sitting around talking, "I died defending my country. How about you Joe?" "I was killed by a bunch of molasses" " . . . "

He met a sticky end.

The largest desert in the world is in Antarctica.

Mozart had a musically talented older sister, and it was her playing that inspired him to play. They played together sometimes, but she didn't get the musical training (and immortality) he got because, you know, gender.

History (¿Legend?) of Robert Liston

This surgeon amputated a leg in under 3 minutes (the patient died afterwards in the ward from hospital gangrene). He amputated in addition the fingers of his young assistant (who died afterwards in the ward from hospital gangrene). He also slashed through the coat tails of a distinguished surgical spectator, who was so terrified that the knife had pierced his vitals he dropped dead from fright.

Before that it's known that Robert amputated another patient's leg in 2 and a half minutes, but in his enthusiasm the patient's testicles as well.

It was a time before anesthesia so... you had to cut fast while the guy on the table was fighting your assistant because, you know, you were cutting his leg with a knife so... yeah... a bad timed movement and... Ouch!

I think we need a gentler fact!

Pugs purr. Because of their smushy faces, their air passages are somewhat constricted, causing them to make many snorting sounds. Being the adorable creatures they are, pugs have turned their snorting into a language, where it is possible to tell a pug's mood from the volume and duration of their snort. When happy and relaxed, many pugs will emit a long, low snort that sounds like purring.
