The Tap and Tea

[dragon wench]

Be happy this particular Albertan used to be an easterner.

Yes indeed Otherwise we'd have to place you in restraints so that you didn't strangle Lestat with your bare hands!

*throws snowball*

*wonders if the snow available to Hill is the dry, powdery stuff, picks up a pile of wet, heavy snow, forms it into a ball, and throws it at Hill*

You say the same to me. :mischief:

Your point being?

This seems fairly similar. If he gave you a drink, I'd set it down and go to wash my hands.

Must be your medical background suddenly encouraging hygiene

No kidding! Good thing we have a series of spikes on one side of your pit and moats on the other three sides!

Good thing for me, or for you?

[dj_venom]

Fine, I'll reprase that .

There's multi quote posting, and there is Dragon Wench AND Hill.

[Ravager]

@DJV, we're better at it.

@DW, feeling any better yet?

[dj_venom]

I don't think I have the coordination to end and start all the quotes, I'd just end up running them into each other in one big mess of quote.

[Ravager]

That's why you preview complicated posts like that.
Anyway, I've had a bit of practice at that.

[dragon wench]

@DJ Venom,
Hey, it's not that difficult you know, especially with the new formatting toys

@Rav,
Reasonably better, thanks
Tiger Balm is good stuff
The post dinner bourbon will help too...

[QUOTE=Ravager]That's why you preview complicated posts like that.[/QUOTE]
My brain can't cope with such quotory .

[QUOTE=Ravager]Anyway, I've had a bit of practice at that. [/QUOTE]
Well with that many posts you would want to hope so .

Now who's starting to quote .

[quote="DW]Hey"]
Toys? WHOA! They have a quote button. Thanks, didn't see that before, that'll save stacks of time .

[Ravager]

@DW, that's good.
I knew alcohol would be included in the cure!!

@DJV, this isn't a quoting contest you know!! :laugh:

[dj_venom]

[QUOTE=Ravager]@DJV, this isn't a quoting contest you know!! :laugh:[/QUOTE]

That's what you think :laugh: .

[Chimaera182]

I multi-quoted a ton during heated discussions, just to agree with people and generally avoid giving an opinion of my own. I'd usually wrap up in the end with a semi-opinion. I'd always hold down the Shift key and click "Quote" to open a new window. I'd just reply to each quote in the separate windows and then past them into one massive reply to keep some semblance of order.

[dj_venom]

Now that is an interesting idea... I may have to try that.

But not giving an opinion . There's no way that would happen, I always have an opinion, and there's nothing better than proving everyone else's wrong .

Yes indeed Otherwise we'd have to place you in restraints so that you didn't strangle Lestat with your bare hands!

Bah! I think that OS is 100% redneck. She he may have to worry about. When I got there her door had been knocked off it's hinges!

I can always be restrained if you want me to be, DW. Use metal and find something that doesn't bend.

*wonders if the snow available to Hill is the dry, powdery stuff, picks up a pile of wet, heavy snow, forms it into a ball, and throws it at Hill*

Oi! You wanna have a fight! We have some good stuff here! *whips several snowballs at DW, from [pristine Calgary and -20 degree weather*

Must be your medical background suddenly encouraging hygiene

I think it has something to do with weasels, old threads and pills, but I am unsure. It could be you, pills and shackles, but you can never be certain.

Good thing for me, or for you?

That depends entirely on what kind of person you think I am, my lovely.

Tiger Balm is good stuff

You and tiger balm. Hippy.

[dragon wench]

Bah! I think that OS is 100% redneck. She he may have to worry about. When I got there her door had been knocked off it's hinges!

Well I don't really know OS, so I'll have to take your word for it.... Though I suspect the door being knocked off its hinges was more the result of her bursting through it in terror when she found out you were planning to visit

I can always be restrained if you want me to be, DW. Use metal and find something that doesn't bend.

You're looking for something hard and unyielding are you? :speech:

Oi! You wanna have a fight! We have some good stuff here! *whips several snowballs at DW, from pristine Calgary and -20 degree weather*

*Returns the favour and pelts Hill with some very special Vancouver snowballs*

I think it has something to do with weasels, old threads and pills, but I am unsure. It could be you, pills and shackles, but you can never be certain.

And here I thought you had suddenly embraced the motto 'cleanliness is next to Godliness' I just hope you aren't planning on embracing Weasel instead :speech:

That depends entirely on what kind of person you think I am, my lovely.

Hmmmm.... Let me get back to you on that...

You and tiger balm. Hippy.

You forgot the bit about the bourbon, hippies usually stick to soymilk

[Hill-Shatar]

Well I don't really know OS, so I'll have to take your word for it.... Though I suspect the door being knocked off its hinges was more the result of her bursting through it in terror when she found out you were planning to visit

She trusts me. :devil: Poor girl.

You're looking for something hard and unyielding are you?

Will this unyielding thing involve leather and some very special appearances in their use by you? :mischief:

*Returns the favour and pelts Hill with some very special Vancouver snowballs*

*throws the Ontario sidewalk special*

And here I thought you had suddenly embraced the motto 'cleanliness is next to Godliness' I just hope you aren't planning on embracing Weasel instead

Weasel/Wankerly? I've read the horror stories of one names Chrissy.

Hmmmm.... Let me get back to you on that...

Well, your not going anywhere, I hired some of Brynn's snipers to keep there eyes on you. I hope you like sponges covered in brynnwater.

You forgot the bit about the bourbon, hippies usually stick to soymilk

Not a hippy? Ah, you must be older than the typical hippy population then. Are you one of the stunned people by the beach?

[dragon wench]

She trusts me. :devil: Poor girl.

What on earth did you do to delude the poor girl like that? Er...wait... I probably don't want to know...

Will this unyielding thing involve leather and some very special appearances in their use by you? :mischief:

I had always been under the impression that leather was flexible, as opposed to unyielding..

*throws the Ontario sidewalk special*

*ducks* The snowball goes wizzing past and heads off in the direction of The Z. He also ducks... and the snowball keeps on going...

Weasel/Wankerly? I've read the horror stories of one names Chrissy.

Yes. Be afraid... be very, very afraid.... :devil:

Well, your not going anywhere, I hired some of Brynn's snipers to keep there eyes on you. I hope you like sponges covered in brynnwater.

:speech: I've heard horror stories about Brynn's martial tactics

Not a hippy? Ah, you must be older than the typical hippy population then. Are you one of the stunned people by the beach?

Hmm... The hippy population here seems to span all generations from what I have seen. I'n neither a hippy, nor stunned... I'm not blonde enough to be stunned

[Hill-Shatar]

What on earth did you do to delude the poor girl like that? Er...wait... I probably don't want to know...

My dear one, what are you insinuating? I feel so insulted...

I had always been under the impression that leather was flexible, as opposed to unyielding..

Well, you have to remember that leather that is not blakc can be as stiff as heck. Often used for constricting unruly people in olden times, y'know...

*ducks* The snowball goes wizzing past and heads off in the direction of The Z. He also ducks... and the snowball keeps on going...

*wonders will this thing will end up, compacts another snowball and lobs at DW*

Yes. Be afraid... be very, very afraid.... :devil:

I am slightly worried that it is you saying these things. Also somewhat excited. Should I go and ressurect the temple.

Ooh, I just noticed that I am one of the first ten here! Whisky, my lovely.

:speech: I've heard horror stories about Brynn's martial tactics

Really? Those methods show up in the magazine I am subscribed too...

[dragon wench]

*passes Hill a Whiskey*

I have to head off for about an hour, I'll answer the rest of your post in while

Thanks, my good lady.

I look forward to it. Enjoy your dinner, or whatever it happens to be.

You're welcome

I was just watching the only TV show I watch on a regular basis. Oddly enough, JAG.

My dear one, what are you insinuating? I feel so insulted...

Oh, I wasn't insinuating anything

Well, you have to remember that leather that is not blakc can be as stiff as heck. Often used for constricting unruly people in olden times, y'know...

I'd forgotten about that. So what is it you're hoping I'll do with that leather exactly?

*wonders will this thing will end up, compacts another snowball and lobs at DW*

It could end up anywhere you know... Maybe it will end up hitting one of the windows in BC's legislature, and they'll think we are under terrorist attack from Alberta
*ducks snowball, it goes wizzing off in the same direction as the first one...*

I am slightly worried that it is you saying these things. Also somewhat excited. Should I go and ressurect the temple.

I'm not sure. Is there a need to ressurect the temple?

Really? Those methods show up in the magazine I am subscribed too...

And you wonder why I treat you with suspician

Adding Insult to Injury

I actually had this vague impression of Alberta bordering Ontario.
So the provinces of Canada lining the southern border on my mental map:
BC, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Alberta, Ontario, Québec, New Brunswick
in stead of BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Québec, New Brunswick.

From the deep dark recesses of my mind I have since dredged up the origins of this fallacy. It's all due to a boardgame called Risk ... The map of the world is divided in territories which not necessarily correspond to countries, (smaller countries lumped together in larger entities such as Scandinavia, or Northern Africa; and larger countries such as Canada subdivided into different territories... For Canada NW territories (comprising what are more or less the northern provinces), Alberta (comprising the more or less western provinces), Ontario (comprising the central provinces), Québec (comprising the eastern provinces). Since this was my first confrontation with these names, it has left a lasting impression and Alberta and Ontario have been sitting brotherly (or sisterly) next to each other in my mind ever since...
