    No, a bad knock-knock joke is one that doesn't make sense (Tree. Tree who? Tree car! *small child dissolves in fit of hilarity) That was a good knock-knock joke, as far as they go. Which isn't far.

    Congrats!

    I'm a Protestant Christian, specifically a Baptist. Specifically a Southern Baptist. The difference between Baptist and Southern Baptist is that there really isn't one. So: yes. I believe in the God of the Bible.

    Congrats both!

    Well, since I discovered the status update ability (>cough<like last week>cough<), I've been itching for something worthwhile to post, and...

    Rhythm of War has finally arrived from the library! Soon I can enter spoiler zones to my heart's content!

      Word of advice, stick to the ending, BS has it covered. i legit thought RoW was going to be like a part 1 type deal and I'm so relieved that isn't the case.

      Yes! :)

    "You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half goat."

    Well, I had, but clearly, I missed something haha. RoW comes today. Breeze sighed, chewing his lip, silent for a moment. "Privilege, I suppose," he ventured at last. "The years treated me well- better than I merited. I was happy... I didn't have to remember the past... and I didn't altogether want to. It hurt too much." He glanced around the room, looking at his surroundings without really taking them in. "I hid the past. Locked it away." He gave a soft, sad chuckle. "Must've lost the key." He stepped back, giving Kelsier some space. "No excuse, really, at any rate. Say what you will. I probably deserve it."
  8. BreezeCauthon
    Well, for one thing, I didn't know that Kelsier was still pretty much alive.

    Breeze approaches Kelsier. "Bit unfair of you to take advantage of the fact that I went first. But-" he clears his throat and stands a bit straighter, looking Kelsier in the eyes. "But I suppose I hit a bit below the belt, didn't I? I was afraid of what you'd say, and felt I had to put you on the defensive. Which I did. But I got carried away. I apologize." He stretches out his hand hopefully to Kelsier. "No hard feelings?" He's not soothing anymore. It doesn't feel right for the moment. Cheers!

    Here goes nothing, part 2: That was harder than the last one, I must say.

    So was my recommendation, actually!

    As I recall, Starship Troopers by Robert Heinlein fits your description. It can be read on multiple levels - for entertainment or for meaning. It can be a little slow at times though.

    Assignment is due Friday. I'm in high school.

    Voting is closed (I mean, I guess voting is still possible but it won't count toward the results). Okay, it is official! The Shard's all-time favorite film is... any of the Lord of the Rings films!! In my opinion, a well-deserved win. Princess Bride is second, followed by a tie for a distant third between Spiderverse and the Nolan Batman films. Inception gets fourth, Interstellar and Ex Machina tie for fifth, and everything else is tied for sixth with zero votes. Thanks to whoever voted for Interstellar at the last minute. I was regretting wasting my planned protest vote since Lord of the Rings quickly pulled ahead of Princess Bride.

    I think the point of the question is to be ambiguous, so as to garner a wide variety of responses. Thanks!

    I have a question for school that I am supposed to ask somebody else, so I figured I'd post here in case anybody is interested in helping out. The question is this: "What is good citizenship?" There aren't any wrong answers... just give me your thoughts!

    Any opinions on how this would 1) fare as family viewing and 2) whether a 9-year-old could watch it?

    "You've miscounted, my dear fellow. You face me this round, not the one after that. You'll only have to do it once."
  20. BreezeCauthon
    Scadrial seems to have done pretty well in the opening rounds.

    Vin kinda looks Asian on the cover of Hero of Ages, so there is that.

    Kinda where I'm at too. I did start a roleplay with my siblings set in my own fantasy world using the Cogent RP system. It's not D&D, but there are some good stories, so here goes: So, I had us all meet up in some random town. My sister (a kleptomaniac elf with a particular craving for buttons) is stalking my brother trying to get a golden button on a bag he carries around. They both go to an inn. A merchant offers my brother a spot as a guard on a caravan headed to a desert country in the far south. (My own character is also a guard on this caravan, so this was my plan to get us to all meet up). My brother, being the strange man he is, declines the offer (despite the fact that he too is headed to this country) and instead tries to buy the caravan. He tells the merchant to name his price (20,000 gold coins is the merchant's opportunistic reply), and then decides not to buy the caravan after all. Eventually, my brother heads out to the northern marshes after learning that Orcs don't live in the southern deserts. (He's hunting Orcs). My sister is in tow, still trying to figure out the best way to get the button (she's already been caught trying once). After my brother one-phases a trio of bandits (with no help from my sister, who misses her knife throw), they wander for a while and my brother gets struck by lightning (at this point, I determine that this is a good game). They stop at a farm, and stay in the barn for a while. After they set off again, they return to the barn to try to sell a stoat skin to the farmer's wife, and somehow end up paying her to take it. They both blame each other for this, and set back off. They come across a river. Rather than try to look for a bridge, one decides to jump over (fails, gets swept someway downstream, and finally crosses), and the other stupidly decides to dig under. He's pretty set on this, so I have a boat pass by on the river. My brother gets the memo, but instead of hailing the boat, tries to hurl himself onto it. He is a very short character with a low athletics score, so fails, and then almost drowns (he's not good at swimming either). The sailors save him and drop him on the other side. That's where we've left off. Right now they're trying to figure out how to retrieve his halberd from the river. Meanwhile I'm many miles away, on my way to the desert, unlikely to ever make contact with the party.

    Personally, I loved Wheel of Time. Go for it. Have you read Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle? It gets a lot of bad rep for being too generic, but I didn't have a problem with that and really liked it.

    Breeze raises his glass to Kelsier. "Naturally, my dear fellow," he says, in response to both of Kelsier's statements.
  25. BreezeCauthon
    Well, here goes: My first ever... whatever this is!
