Posting the same thing over and over again (like... I hate the 90 second rule) also counts, I think...

no, i think that is 'trolling', which is equally banned, however

Meh. Same difference, I suppose.

Nobody quite explained what those terms meant to me...

Trolling is posting posts just to annoy and irritate. Spamming is posting pointless posts (often just to increase one's post-count).

It's easy to type a 2-line post rapidly.

Sometimes you do spam (better watch it now, I weild the Wooden Spoon of Wrath

), but you're definitely not a troll!

Some times it is appropriate to leave a short reply. JDs comment was only 1 line, but that's all that was needed.

Welcome back to the CafÃ© JD, haven't seen you in a while. Oh yeah, I keep forgetting to answer your post in N.A. Relations. As it is nearly 1am, this will again wait for another day...

I type very quickly, but I only get hit with the 90 second rule now and then. (Most likely due to verbosity...) The 120 second PM rule gets me much more often.

Bwaha!

Oh. I misunderstood; Val said he didn't realize you posted at first, and it was due on some other day. When I saw my due date, pushed back, I assumed you'd been late.

It's a good intro BTW, although I didn't reply to it yet. (I've been in about three threads in the Project.

) I wanted to trace the hobbit's journey on a map, but they don't go anywhere in my chapter.

Why hello there Bombadillo!

My very own Wooden Spoon of Wrath! Thank you!

I'm excited (is there going to be a picture?)!!

Now, what can I get for you - anything at all!

Sure, if you have a birch beer, extra syrup. (sudden crave)

That's a great idea!!...

This was the biggest spoon I could find, next to the strangest guy I could find. And look! Whoever you hit with it will have the words "I'm a total loser" imprinted on their hides.

**Nurvingiel** · 03-02-2005, 08:39 PM

That is completely hilarious!! I love it! I'm going to try to get myself in there instead. Or maybe not. I wish I had Photoshop.

One birch beer coming right up! That sounds delicious...

And extra syrup.

Last Child of Ungoliant · 03-02-2005, 08:43 PM

hey nurvi, can i have a bottle of either The Famous Grouse,
or Old Speckled Hen please?
although I am partial to Bishop's Finger

BTW, those are english drinks, before i get any funny comments

Last Child of Ungoliant · 03-02-2005, 08:57 PM

Found it myself, yummies!!

(hope this works)

**Nurvingiel** · 03-02-2005, 08:58 PM

Don't worry, I've heard of those (except The Famous Grouse)!

*gives Chrys a Famous Grouse, and sits down with him to try her own bottle*

It's 2am and I just can't think of a better way to phrase that.

Erm... goodnight everyone!

Nah, not if it's a "P.S." thing...

P.S.
By the way... nah, you know what I was going to say to well

A troll? Do not speak of such things!
Anyway, why do mooters who post to much spam renamed "Smelly orcs" and not trolls? It can mean a spamer or a soldier of Souron...
I think it would work, but it could be to funny and mooters would post spam just to get a new title and...
Nah.

Uh-oh, here comes one of those rare-but-extremely-long-trolls' bane posts that contain too many quotes.

I have excellent practice at school.

I used to complain about that rule, but I have no reason to, since it is obviously a lot better than that 120 second rule.

Bombadillo · 03-02-2005, 11:15 PM

Yes! *guzzles half the bottle of birch beer to quench thirst, and then slows down to savor the rest throughout the day*

I could have tried it in MS paint, too; we all know I've got the time. But just drawing glasses and some long hair on that guy wouldn't work.

You know, before I wrote "anti spam" on the plaques I had "Nurv." I changed it because it clashed with the "I'm a total loser" part at the bottom.

Or the nine minute rule on April Fools Day.

I'm still supposed to be doing an essay that counts as a test grade. I'm turning into Ellemire.

I doubt I could eat with it, but I just wanted to have my own spoon of wrath.

'Night, Nurv. Are you going to sleep with you spoon under your pillow?

Or maybe you would be more comfortable with it beside your bed...

Nice pic, by the way, Bomb.

Ah, yes, randomness!

Speaking of April Fools Day... *starts plotting*

I grovel at thy feet, Nurv, Owner of the Teacup Cafe and the Great Wooden Spoon of Wrath.

NOT! MUHAHAHAHAhaha *hack**cough*
Er, ale please. Any kind will do.

Bombadillo · 03-03-2005, 12:22 AM

Chrys, I just realised I read evrything wrong. My post was never due on the 1st. Val was saying 5th all along.

I should probably sleep soon.

Thanks Pip!

I still have a report to type up. I've been complaining all week about it. Minorities and affirmitive action. I'm a blond-haired, blue-eyed white guy who can't even trace his family name back to its country of origin--I'm just not interested.

I bought a sampler of Twinings at the store. It had: English and Irish Breakfast, Lady and Earl Grey, and Some other one that I can't remember because it was gone almost instantly.
It sure beats "Private Selection, Premium Quality Brand," that rotten, SUPERSTRONG Version Number 2.5 bio-engineered tea-flavored plant 2000 (not randomness: that tea brand has very poor flavor and is so bitter that after every sip, especially the last half of the cup, it makes you gag

).

I'm supposed to be doing a Chemical Formula Balancing Activity, but I'm not. It's also worth a test grade. But, I don't have to do it at home. I have all day in science tomorrow.
