    @AonEne I just reported one that was barely getting started on its posting spree. Hopefully somebody sees that soon enough that it'll be easy to deal with, rather than having to go through and delete twenty-something posts later! We little non-mod folk have to make it easier for you guys somehow! Y'all are good folk; you don't deserve to have to deal with bots, and I thank you for doing it!

    Nope, I don't think so. TPBM owns way too many CDs.

    Honestly, if I had to spend a night on Threnody I'd just go to sleep. Would you rather eat chull-dung stew or eat a crab like Rock does? (Edit: the latter being wihout enhanced tooth and jaw strength)

    Top of a mountain at sunset or in a rainstorm! Soda or sparkling water?

    Thank you for the information, and I'm happy to go un-murdered. I'm a an organist, for goodness sake; I can make the oboe noises, but I didn't have any idea what it is until you educated me. Also, on the topic of fun words, matinee and manatee. I always get the two confused, so when someone says matinee, I wonder why there's an ocean creature in a theatre production... till I remember what matinee really means.

    Positions are really just a way of determining how high you are on the string. So, first position is the basic position you learn when you start, and second position is when you slide your hand up the string by one note and play in a different key, third position is when your index finger lands on the note your ring finger usually plays, and so on. By the time you reach 6th and 7th position, you're basically playing at the far (near? It's closer to you...) end of the fingerboard. Hopefully that makes sense. If not, I suggest Googling "shifting" in a string instrument sense.

    Wait... it has an actual tune? Where do I find this?!?!?

    Personally, I love this idea. It would be a) ridiculously fun, b) potentially highly effective, and c) very nicely themed toward the Shard. Fair. I still haven't figured out why they like the Shard so much to begin with. 'Round here, we talk about BOOKS, not (usually) divorce.

    Granted. It continually gets caught on your sleeves and somehow rips them... I wish to always know what time it is in my location without needing a clock.

    It's a musical instrument of the... uh, the band variety. (Sorry. I know nothing about band instruments except that they exist... Oboe's a reed, right? I know it's not a woodwind, but I'm not sure if it's reed or brass.) It is a fun word, though; glad you brought it up!

    I can't tell if you're kidding or not. Penumbra is a fun word!
  12. Ookla
    Yes. I've heard it's very itchy and gives rashes, so I stay far away. TPBM watches Jill Bearup's YouTube videos/shorts. Edit: Gah! Where'd the extra page come from? Welp, try again... I don't know anything about Ta'veren. See above for TPBM. I goofed.

    Nice! Very impressive, and it looks great! I'd love to see more of this, if you ever feel like putting in the creative energy!

    Glowing gummy worms, eh? Interesting juxtaposition with the character's educated word-flavor. I like it!

    Ooh! I like that! Now, I'm no Cosmere scholar, but that seems like a very logical direction for things to go, given recent Cosmere happenings. The only issue I can think of involves Sunlit Man spoilers, so I'll leave it out of this, but other than that one thing (which could be explained away fairly easily anyway), this theory seems pretty solid.

    Indeed. Best game on the planet! TPBM likes to munch on whole, raw chili peppers.
  17. Ookla
    Very good. Lots of relevant details, doesn't go on too long, nice and interesting to read. 10/10.
  18. Ookla
    Granted. It's been poisoned just enough to give you a miserable night in the bathroom. I wish to be able to tolerate spicier foods. Habanero peppers look so tempting, you know?

    How did you know?! Bad habits. I really need to sit my rear down and squish some words onto paper more often than I do TPBM enjoys reading through this thread.
  20. Ookla
    Hmm... I quite enjoy the "You Know You're A Sanderfan When..." thread. It generally makes me laugh, which is awesome. It could have been longer; I seriously considered letting you work through a 400+ page thread. Figured it wouldn't be very polite to do that, though.
  21. Ookla
    Read through every page of the Pocket game: I'll take a truth.
  22. Ookla
    What is your favorite variety of cheese?
  23. Ookla
    Weighty.
  24. Ookla
    Granted. They're about the same size as dollar bills with a mix of feathers and bat-wing membranes. I wish for a napkin.
  25. Ookla
    I have no idea what that is. TPBM thinks pink-footed tarantulas are kind of cute, despite a lingering fear of spiders. (If you've never seen one, Google it.)
