Teacup Cafe Part VII

Spock · 03-09-2006, 09:41 PM

Welcome one and all, and now I'll retire to the recliner with my cup of decaf tea and a plain donut to round out the evening.

trolls' bane · 03-09-2006, 09:47 PM

Now that was short lived! I would like to thank my dear friend Lotesse for entrusting me with the responsibilities she had. Doesn't happen much.

And now, I would like to announce the top poster of our previous Teacup Cafe.
*drumroll, please*
Me! Yep! It was me! Buwahahaha!

Farimir Captain of Gondor · 03-09-2006, 09:49 PM

YAY! The new cafe. I hope i didn't leave anything in the other one.

*thinks about it really hard*

That kind of hurt my head.

Ohh you said Gene Ray. I thought you said Jean Gray. The lovely Dr. from the X-men

. Yeah that guy sounds like a quack. Worship a sphere? Why not just worship the triangle? That shape is the coolest by far.

Lady Marion Magdalena · 03-09-2006, 10:33 PM

Heh... As an introduction to our unit on Intelligence in psych. today, we were told to brainstorm the types of questions that we would use to make an intelligence test.
My partners and I decided that in order for such a test to be accurate it would need to measure logic, creative problem solving, survival skillsand practicality, along with general knowledge stuff.
We also figured that because written tests are so limited, the best method of testing people would be to stick them in a labyrinth to face challanges pulled from sources ranging from greek myth and the Hobbit, to Hitchhiker's guide and the film 'The Labyrinth'. It's genius!

Well... interesting anyway.

*wanders off to find the tea*

trolls' bane · 03-09-2006, 11:02 PM

Well now seems a good time to ask:
Would anyone want to be my partner on a school book project? If interested, PM me for details.
Note: We will be reading A Brief History of Time, no exceptions.

Hmm...For some reason, I like it better thinking of it as the orignal Teacup. I just like to think of it as...ah...open for remodeling. Anyone else share this thought?

Special hobbit-sized rooms on the first floor, of course.

Thain Peregrin Took I · 03-10-2006, 12:43 AM

Well, this thread will stay 1 page long for about... oh, say, one day.

Definetly. New Cafe, new look.

I agree, Hobbit rooms are a must.

How long is a page?

Good! I'm glad someone...wait, do you agree or disagree? Choice none!

Well, tell that to the dragons, one of whom is entrusted to my care until I get a definite answer.

Well, for me it's 40 posts per page. But it can be as small as 5 and as big as 200. So that's a pretty big range. What I meant, was that the Teacup won't be a short thread for long.

I agree if you mean we should do a little of remodeling.

Swet mother of gymshorts!! ONTO THE SEVENTH!? That was one short lived teacup!

Lady Marion Magdalena · 03-10-2006, 01:07 AM

Huh? Rooms? What is this, a cafe or a hotel? Perhaps you mean hobbit sized parlors, but that still doesn't make sense as the cafe is fit for all sizes... eh... I'm spatially confused right now. (There really needs to be a cross-eyed, confused smiley for things like that).

Going to find the garden now. It seems to have gotten misplaced in the... whatever it is that happens when the tecup moves to a new thread... for some reason I keep imagining it as just kind of shifting but also staying in the same place accompanied by some sort of onomatopoeic
noise.

If you noticed in the former cafe, or the cafe page of old, or the cafe that was here earlier..... yeah a cross-eyed smile would be a good one for this as well. Anyway, I watered the garden and made sure TB wasn't eating all the roses. So, I think it is still around.

No, it's fine now, right?

(We need Lotesse to at least put the sky bar in!)
Yep, for me it's two hundred, and I'm not planning on changing it to ten like everyone else. Anyone else have theirs set for 200?

Hey! That's my Saxifrage Russell impression! Go find your own!

Lady Marion Magdalena · 03-10-2006, 01:17 AM

Thanks, Captain. I think I found it...

It seems to have gotten stuck on the ceiling of the thirteenth floor.

Someone want to help get it back where it's supposed to be? Or at least to a place where we won't have to defy gravity to walk in it?

Sweet mother of gymshorts!

*falling out of chair laughing*

Sminty_Smeagol · 03-10-2006, 01:21 AM

Why do they make new cafes? Why not just have one thread? Does the subject change with each new one? Do they make a new one when the old one gets out of hand?

I am glad you like it Captian! I like it too, especially when pronounced with the accent! "swet"...hehehe....

*by devine powers that go with the territory of being The Last Sane Person, I manage to get the garden to undefy (HAHAH! goes right with the gymshorts) gravity and come and settle where it was previously*
