1. Oops, what a monumental balls-up that was. I thought I typed, “…sorry, can’t take credit…”
2. No, I’m afraid that only works for Cecil’s articles and such. It doesn’t work for the message board. We can thank God for that though; I don’t think we want everyone searching for “felching” to land here.

Cheer up! 🙂

Hmmm, our amphibious friend hasn’t hopped on by yet, maybe he got squished crossing the road between GQ and MPSIMS.

I always mentally broke your name up like this:

CAN THE ARYA

You know, like an eccentrically spelled admonition to stop singing opera.

Uh, we do have a spot left for a minor deity in charge of something like, oh say, polymorphic perversity? I could probably handle that one.

Hey, it’s Bosda in charge of cling peaches.

Hey! Kat and I did all that paperwork and paid our fees to the proper authorities --the cowgod _promised_ to pass the payments on.

But now it appears that the rest of y’all are becoming deities by mere acclamation. Something’s definitely fishy here.

Catrandom, I think you and I should talk to pluto about borrowing some of his excess lawyers and bring suit against some of these unsanctioned dieties.

Well, Kat, we’ve certainly got to sue _somebody_. These bogus gods and goddesses are devaluing our legitimate deity status.

Hey, pluto, send up a lawyer or six; it’s class action time!

Maybe I asked the wrong question for DGOF, maybe it was just to ribbeting. He’s trying to avoid me, I just know it.

Yeah, I get it.

BMU always says “Can the area”

I’m rolling on the floor over here.

It’s actually pronounced “Can’t hear ya” as in “What?”

Sheesh, people. Get it right. ::sigh::

Can I be the God of something? What, exactly, are the requirements? Do I need to be nominated, or are barely disguised bribes to the dieties acceptable?

I am the one TRUE Lesser-God.  
I’m thinking about trading all you discount-Gods to a Lesser-Satan, for half a pack of Milk Dudz. Then you’ll get roasted over a single charcoal briquette 'till your spit dries up. Ha!

…also, since there’s some confusion about typing the word G-d, I prefer that you call me Chuck.
