I've changed my sig because I realized we actually have three identity crisis victims.

Arhra, Toastburner, and myself all share that dubious honor.

We also share the dubious honor of having been part of Calvinball.

Make of that what you will.

Oh my god.

What the fuck happened?


(I've been pumping out IB labs for the past week. It's been nasty)

[Skyshot]

Okay, The Capitalist has done this. Right this second, he's fallen and he can't get up. *rimshot* I proposed a crazy plan to Arhra, who can't absorb energy because of a rogue gene she swallowed. Rei, deaf, is taking on Bruticus, a massive guy who solves his problems with violence and is currently blind. Most of us are handling fire-resistant regenerating fungus trolls and plant life aggressive enough to put Old Man Willow to shame.

Also, I'm blasting everything that does and doesn't move with lightning from my fingertips while taking breaks to eat food that makes me stronger and stupider.

Tch. That jerk-face Tom Bombadil is never around when you need him.

[Skyshot]

Don't I know it. Couldn't even be bothered to show up in the movie, because New Zealand was outside his bounds. Oooh, Tom doesn't wanna go outside his territory! Sure, he can be one of the most awesome characters in the book, but he can't go to New Zealand. It's a shame, I tell ya.

You know, maybe one of us should start singing that song of his. It's worth a shot!

Well, if you insist....

*ahem*

If you like pina coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga
If you have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the summer cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape
Yes I like pina coladas
And getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food
I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
And cut through all this red tape
At a bar called O'Malleys
Where we'll plan our escape...

[Skyshot]

No, that's his and Goldberry's song. We don't talk about that.

my favorite part of the book was where they come back to hobbiton and are all like "What the fuck is this? Are you serious? We just went through freakin' Mordor and you think that this crap is going to slow us down? No, no, it won't, but you know what? You're going down."


I was so sad it wasn't in the movie.

[Arhra]

Ah, Darth, only the people who didn't eat any of the food back at The Capitalist's free buffet are being attacked by the plants. People who did eat there instead are dealing with a number of negative effects from the food. Let me dig out that suggestion list from before:

Food effect suggestions: hallucinations, sudden obesity, loss of balance, extreme hunger, addiction to the food, uncontrollable shakes, blindness, deafness, nausea, vomiting and stomach explosion.

Also, I should note that the jungle is actively trying to kill people. A lot of posts really don't seem to be showing this. I'll dig out the jungle suggestions too: vines strangling you, roots holding your feet, the earth threatening to drag you down, being attacked by a number of animals with weird glowy eyes, thorn bushes, branches scratching and trying to poke out your eyes and so on.

While I think of it, how exactly is one meant to injure your slime form Flare? At present it seems virtually indestructable.
