Woo hoo!

Just to be clear, all furniture, fittings, people, dust, etc has been moved here from the previous thread so there's no need to redecorate.

Now, in celebration, we can either play Twister or that weird basketball game from the show.

I'm up for twister. Seems I got my own Simon fantasies to work out of the system. After our little spat during the war, they have returned with a vengence.

Quote:

*Ebo crawls out from under the table and decides that its past time to try pepsimilk. She pops open a can, takes a sip, makes a face, and spits it out.*

Blech! This is disgusting!

No really, i REALLY DID try pepsimilk tonight. Although i was using some sort of retard holiday pepsi that was dyed red (it tased like normal pepsi though) and i get the idea that my pepsi to milk ratio was a tad off.

that yule time pepsi is nasty, I don't think you should base your pepsimilk enjoyment on that. When mixed properly, like TRM's marvelous treasures, it should taste a bit like a melted float. Mmmm.

And I'm up for roommates. As many as need a place. Of course I can't gaurantee the it would be predictable or quiet. I am a bit odd. Those roomates bearing gifts of UK chocolate treats and good ale are at the top of the list.

I think it should just always be kind of like one big slumber party, all the time! What do you think? We could just have couches and sleeping bags and bean bag chairs and hammocks everywhere. We could stay up late everynight, eating chocolate and popcorn and stuff. Why have rooms? If we wanted to be alone, we'd....turn off the computer.

So its the SAME faster loading treehouse then? Just, well, faster loading...

What if we COMBINED twister and Calvinball? (Somebody once refered to that basketball thing as Calvinball and I would tend to agree that that's a good name for it.)

*Ebo jumps on Simons shoulder and uses the bost to get the ball trough the ring. Then she jumps back down and puts her right foot on yellow, thereby forcing TWG into the zone of silly walks!*

*twg falls to her knees as Ebo hits the yellow circle. twg catches sight of the ball and pounces*

I'm not sure there are rules, so I'm just going with here.

*knowing she can't make a point attempt without sitting on someone's shoulders, she passes the ball to TRM, spins the spinner thing and lands on red, left foot.*

I'm out of breath. This is hard. Um i need a drink, any of that special frozen lemonade leftover from the clubhouse party? The stuff without the guac in it. Oi! Sparky, be a dear and fetch me some shouldes. Thanks.

Well, I'd be delighted to be part of your fantasies, but as those fantasies involve Simon the character, they would inevitably me being over-proper, inadvertently insulting you and probably huge amounts of sexual frustration on your part (if you're channeling Kaylee properly!) For example, if we're playing Twister, I would join in but I would be ever so careful not to touch you, even if that meant resting my head on Jayne's bottom.

Oooh, ale, I had forgotten that other British treat. Right, everyone, gather round, I'd like you to try Hen's Tooth. Be warned, it's brewed to 6.2% so it's very unlike the standard American "Making love in a canoe" beers. It even has its own web page, see?

AHA! I've found you all thank goodness I was a little lost there for a minute.
I think it would be fantastic if we could get the trampoline actually in the tree house. Of course we could just leave it outside and jump on the beds. In fact, I think that would be even more fun than the trampoline. I'm not really one for sports of any kind but I am all for watching sweaty guys in tight pants (and lovely black vests) play it out. I'll just sit on the sidelines and drool. Also,love the idea of a kind of constant slumber party. Sleep? wE dON't NEEd no STiNkinG SLEEP! So are we now the NFLT? or FFLT (faster, faster loading tree house)? or maybe NFFFLT? (New firefly faster loading tree house) .... i am sooooo confused!

Maniac falls through the roof of the treehouse with a looud crash and an abundance of leaves. Well, I was up there with my tree identification books trying to key out what sort of tree we're in, but it looks like this is a brand new species. Pretty exciting stuff. We get to name it!!
By the way, while I was up there I installed some solar panels to supply and store our energy needs... they are tiny, there are about a hundred of them and they take the form of many small butterflies hoverin' over the top of the tree. If I get a little loaded and pass out... somebody else please remember to pull on the little rope near the center trunk on the third story and the panels will come down for the night.

Twister, great fun! Although the circles won't stop spinning. Doesn't stop. Silly circles and spinning arrows!

Anyway, I like the idea of big sleepovers! That sounds like fun. And I can move a duvet into my corner nest. Not sure where Bethyb went though? She was my pal! Hmm...

Hopefully nobody's offended by my new room thread...you can come and visit me and mai anytime you like! So, is it ok, Ebo?

Ooh, can I try Pepsimilk? I'm feeling brave. And heres an idea re: trampoline... we can build a rather big room, adjoinging to our main common room, and move the trampampoline in there, and then we can have a sleepver in there! On the trampoline, how fun does that sound! Bouncing beds! Eroticism gauranteed!

Firstly, on sundays, they usualy start at about 1 or 2 PST (west coast of america.) Don't really know how that works out GMT, but 8 'o clock sounds right-ish. On tuesdays, the VS (if it even starts, which it sometimes doesn't), usually gets goin around 3 or 4 PST, which is probably closer to midnight GMT. So you were both right.

Secondly, this chat is for AIM or AOL users. Sorry to the MSN user who asked about that. You can download AIM here: www.aim.com I have both, so AIM doesn't take over your computer or anything.

I believe there is a book entitled "I know why the caged Mal-licious cannot play the rainstick" but I don't remember who wrote it. Was it Carrot Top? Do you think Joss was thinking of Carrot Top when he named Lorne's bar "Caritas" on Angel? Or is it just similar-sounding only to me?
