You know you want to go to chique’s. Bring the boy, no big deal.
Promise?
I am so there!
I’ll be there. I got permission from my social director to go out and meet online friends IRL for the first time. I’m so excited.
No, really!
What should I bring?
Do you have the required security clearances? Have you performed the necessary purification rituals? Have you practiced speaking in tongues (not really a prerequisite, but it makes it more amusing for the onlookers)?
Please advise.
Yes, yes, and… Well, I’ve practiced something with my tongue, but not speaking.
Yay!! Glad you can make it, Ethilrist…judging from the convo here I recommend you bring a camera 
Actually, though, if y’all could talk to each other and decide who’ll bring what…SW and imthjckaz are bringing guacamole and chips. Need something with sugar yet, and maybe veggies and dip? Pop?
I’ll make cookies.
And I like Mountain Dew, for the soda person.
(Yes, I said soda)
Well, if you can’t speak in tongues, then I suppose a hearty loon call would do.
lessee…
chique – chilli, beer, coffee, acessories, Valium
SW/imthjckaz – guacamole & chips
SilverFire – cookies
I’ll bring veggies & dip and perhaps some cheesy comestibles.
LET’S GO BUCCANEERS!!! WOO HOO !!!

What the heck does a loon sound like?!
::directs Ethilrist to the space between “Silver” and “Fire” in her name::
So anyway… Hey, RD! Bucs suck! 
Not to worry. When the handshake is done right, the sound automatically follows.
:: lobs two-week-old lutefisk at the interlopers ::
Oooooooooooh! Cheese!! Good call, Ethilrist
SilverFire [sub]note lack of space[/sub]:D…
PLEASE tell me you’re joking…
Does this mean you’ll be there?
Nope, I’m not kidding chique.
It’s doubtful I’ll make it. Bummer.
And, imagine someone slipped some ice cubes in your skivvies. You’d make the sound a loon makes.

<— That is the look of extreme disappointment right there.
Don’t make me cry…
Yeah! I’m disappointed too, goldurnit.
And I’m definitely gonna come, too, if only to actually tip a cow. I’ve always wanted to tip a cow.
(This is planned for the weekend where we lose to the Saints, right?)
I believe it’s still 15%.
Whether or not the milk is good.
First I have to say, “SWEET CHRIST, THE VIKINGS WON TODAY!!!”
Woo! Tampa Blows!!
Did you all see that penalty for “taunting”? Yeah, that was bullshit.
Anyway… BUMP!
Hah. That’ll teach those impertinent interlopers.
All I care about from now on is beating the Green Bile Pukers.
