Suddenly, two small words–“in here”–made it tremendously interesting. Where are you posting from?

Never mind, don’t answer. For now, I’m going to assume it’s from inside a steampunk submarine deep in the crevasses of the ocean while giant squid drift languidly by the portholes. But I reserve the right to change my assumptions :).

How long did it take you to come up with that inspired bit of prose?

That’s some pretty obscure stuff, man. Camel remark turned out to be spot on … 🙂

Obscure?! Why, that’s one of the major memes of the boards! In fact, it’s in the top three:

1. 1920s-style death rays
2. Visiting the Marianas Trench, one time, for twenty minutes
3. Hi, Opal!

Sheesh. Kids these days, no appreciation for the classics.

“The classics” are for conservatives. Bunch of DWMs …

Squids drift? I always thought they, like, jet-propulsioned.

Except for when they’re carried in the jaws of sperm whales, that is. 😛

Not about this case but if anyone tried to rape me, I would kill them twice over come hell or high water.

I had a teacher say he wanted to bash me up he said he would take me out in the bush in front of the class twice in grade 8, fact is I would of cleaned him up before he knew it.  
He was crying about how I bashed 3 in my grade who had all attacked me, but he did not believe me and I was thinking if he did bash me, I’d get him back.

I have this stupid mate down the road, who I said after hearing of some puss bag that raped a 4 yo girl and I remember seen that little girl that morning with that bloke and I said that If anyone raped anyone of my kids I would kill them come hell or high water, he jumped up directly and said you would get 20 years for that!  
I said I would do it standing on my head !
