Heh heh heh

There's a thread here on FFF.Net somewhere that's described as Chinese For RPGs or some such. It's got a good if short vocab on it, complete with the accents on the letters, that I copied into a text file a while back.

*goes to look again*

AHAH!

I posted the link to my Reaver fic on my UB Crew's Yahoo group too, and got a most excellent response from one of the people on there!

(the only one so far, mind...)

Comments such as...

As a student who spends so much time studying English Literature (and Classical Literature, just for the record!) it is so refreshing to read a text that has been written by someone who clearly has a grasp of the English language and how to use it!

...and...

"You put across the plot in an ordered and effective way, making good use of paragraphs, pauses and repetition for effect. Your use of vocabulary is also very impressive: you manage to use uncommon and official-sounding words without degrading the tone, which again is highly commendable!

...and finally...

It doesn't happen often, but I am giving you my professional thumbs-up. I have read many a novel that is far less well crafted than this.

Sorry... my ego just had to share

Sorry, I was actually trying to find a job...I should have known my place was here...among the loonies.

I'm out of clean glasses..I'm drinking water out of my guinness pint. Steak and potato stew is yummy.

CMS, we have to add the goopy PB&J smuckers stuff the Chloe likes to the care package. I, er We want crunchies, twirls, curly wurly, crunchies, milk, crunchies, flakes....*drool*, I can't keep going...I'll cry if I do.

FYI:
1) I have indeed met bastards of the highest order.
2) Not a one of our Random men has ever shown bastard tendencies.
3) I hated the stupid classes on periods...they should have had them before we got the horrid things...I mean why wait til we were 11 when we needed the class when we were 9?

Did you get that Carol?

Crunchies, flakes, milks, twirls, curly wurlys, wine gums (dunno why I like them but I do.) and any other cadbury delight you can think of.

I await your list. So far I've got pb m&ms, the smuckers pb&j stuff (strawberry or grape?) and some betty crocker frosting when your mother decides what she wants.

I'll email it all to you later, but right now I've got to finish up some work type stuff.

TWG-how's the job hunt going?

Wow-9? I didn't need the classes till I was 14.

eek! That is scary. Course, at 9, I was still playing with Barbies.

My dad said that in Jewish cultures, the father slaps the daughter and then smacked me in the face (not hard). I said "We're not Jewish!" and he tried to hug me, thinking it was a great joke, but I ran in my room and bawled. I was mortified that my dad even knew.

And my poor dad has never recovered.

Thanks for the sympathy PR. I need to just move on, don't I?

What does TWSM stand for? I missed a private joke somewhere.

I agree. White chocolate mings.

Though I have NO idea what mings means. I'm guessing it means "tastes awful".

I certainly will. In fact i'll send some back for everyone, as soon as I've worked out how to stop the envelope from leaking...

And I'm making my way down to south Germany, Munich in fact, never been down that far before so it should be fun...

I'm prepared for the answer to this question to be obvious but...

AURELIANO

*stumbles in flustered, gasping for air.... or possibly a nice cool beer*

My goodness! I leave the site alone for a day and a half, so I can sort out my affairs and pack... and i miss almost three entire threads

So I spent the past 30 minutes skimming through the last three threads at breakneck speed, with vague mentions of chocolate, breasts, peanut butter, pervy neighbours, deer, mice, coffee and oktoberfest filling my subconscious, all to the accompaniment of a friend's collection of cajun and zydeco music blaring in the background.
My most surreal experience in recent memory!
And now my brain is frazzled!!

Which is perhaps for the best, as I have to run off and get some sleep.... I'm catching a flight in about 6 hours.

But that means I'll be back in the UK, for the next 10 months. Wooo woooooo!

Can't move into my new flat until Sunday though, so crashing at a friends. This also means I'll need to seek out computer labs for thready goodness in the next few days.

Finally, and most importantly, I booked myself a ticket for the Glasgow screening on Sept 20th, so I'm *finally* seeing the BDM... in just under a week! AAAAAAAAAAAAAH! WOOOOOT!

I can fall asleep a happy man! And I'll catch y'all once I get online in the UK.

after my er movie watching tomorrow, I'm gonna go watch my dad play. I haven't been to one of his games in a long time.

I miss playing. Maybe there won't be enough players or the ref won’t show and they'll just scrimmage and then i can play too. I'l bring my bag just in case...*pictures playing soccer with men that have been playing all their lives...* er maybe I won't. I'd get creamed.

The thing to remember CMS is that men are idiots (that and bastards). Sometimes we need to have things spelled out to us in a really clear manner so that even we can get it. But then you can't exactly state your interest either because we're very fickle too.
