Over-Savory Victory

[matchbreaker]

[ Our post begins with a video. A video that shows Elda Marker, in all of her 5', tight-muscled but thin glory wearing a... gaudy belt. A championship belt? The text on it marks it as being a championship belt for Recollé Ninja Warrior. Was that one of the official prizes, or did she commission this from somewhere herself...? Who even knows man, but she takes it off, bringing it up to the camera and then says something to the effect of, ]

< Thank you, thank you! I just wanted to show this off a little! >

[ ... In French. Why French? Who knows. But after that she picks up whatever she's using for the camera and re-focuses it on the complete Gamer Set she got from that prize (for the purposes of playing the one year Last Fantasy sub she got. ]

I wish I knew more about what to do with this stuff though.

[ That part is back to English, and then the video ends. Below there, she then shifts to text to go along with that. ]

So I was studying Japanese this morning and all of a sudden, I fluently understand everything I'm looking at? And then start speaking, and I know what all to say. Probably curtesy of Retrospec, but that's one of the most convenient changes I've gotten yet! I can't show it off though, because I don't actually know how to type it. That's a weird gap for them to give me, isn't it?

Anyone willing to tutor me on that? Does it need a special keyboard? Promise I'm not trying to be insulting. I may be bragging a littlethough (mostly about the Ninja Warrior win from last month though, I think I can be permitted riding high on it). At least I'm not asking you about fruit costumes!

Hellooooo everyone, I hope you're all doing alright today☆

Anyway, I have the most important poll that you'll ever hear from me, so please make sure to pay close attention, okay? ♪

So, someone I know who just joined us in this app - his name's Leon, by the way! - told me that cats are inferior to dogs, so I want to hear from you guys what you think: Which is the superior creature? Cats or dogs?

Feel free to chat amongst yourselves too, this is meant to be a fun little debate. :)

( OOC: As the post denotes, feel free to reply, mingle and threadjack each other's replies! )

Christmas Song Hall of Shame

Brought to you by my boss, who has been playing nothing but Christmas music for a week straight.

This is not a song, this is some sort of subliminal brainwashing. Maybe I'm not having a wonderful Christmas time, but I sure am hearing it repeat in my head for every waking moment of the rest of my life.

It's not even the first day of Christmas yet. Your true love has a horrible taste in gifts if you can't tell us what they got you in less than four minutes.

On what qualifications are we saying it's the most wonderful time of the year? It's freezing. Everything is sold out as people scramble to pick it up for Christmas Presents. Customers everywhere are stupider and more entitled than usual. I'd say it's a hellscape, but it's too damn cold.

Rudolph got bullied by all of his friends for looking different until he was useful to them. They couldn't even come up with a second verse for this song. I'd like to know about Rudolph's claim to fame and sudden inspiration from Cee Lo Green. Actually, here's a pallet cleanser.

This one isn't too bad but it gets a special mention anyway.

[Looks like he's not explaining that one.]

Here's a pitch for a new Christmas song. "All I Want For Christmas Is An All Expenses Paid Tropical Vacation." I'd like to taste things again, too, but that's not a unique or Christmas targeted complaint.

002. Text // Put these thoughts to rest, I'm standing my ground

[drydrown]

Well, as the usual godforsaken holiday struggle continues, it's obvious that we've gotten a fair few new people signed on to the network, and the usual incoherent shrieking thrown at them. Seeing as that last bit tends to help exactly no one, here's a rough rundown of what you should know, given by someone who won't even claim to have a complete picture but knows enough to have a basic idea of what's going on:

( Retrospec And You! )

With that out of the way, however - does anyone know if caffiene and the like still work, even if we can't taste the products? I'm not looking forward to consuming anything with no taste whatsoever, but I'd like to know that at the very least I won't be absolutely suffering through for the duration.

I'm cursed. What did I ever do to deserve this? IT DOESN'T EVEN TASTE LIKE ANYTHING ANY MORE. A million dollars to the first person who brings me a cup of coffee that actually tastes like something. If I don't fucking die before then. 😿 I'm going to die.

right
so apparently retrospec is either fucking with me, or I ate something last night that disagreed with me, because I suddenly got a picture in my head and couldn't get it out

it was of a guy who was half bear
except he couldn't be a normal freak of nature that was half bear, he had to be an upside down bear man

he was somehow attached to the bottom half of a bear facing upside down?

like I said, I'm pretty sure I'm being fucked with
