Saint Keggers

Thanks. And Hi!

I'll be out for abit but back after that.

Hello, Inky!

I know that your sobriquet, inchoate, is an reference to esoterica but wouldn't you rather refer to Pac-Man instead?

the cat's iao

01:24 / 12.08.04

It's a dense Indian flat bread.

Sadly, I have more naan than baba ghanouj. I might have to head out to the grocery store to get more. I have to go there anyway to get some milk and some lunch stuff (like bread and cheese).

Hi inchoate!

Geez, a guy refreshes the page and fails to see that the thread has branched into a new page and look what happens!

I had to look up inchoate in the dictionary the other day because I didn't know what it meant. I'm not sure if it's necessarily an esoteric reference...

Bastard Tweed

01:28 / 12.08.04

I dunno. Strikes me as being distinctly alchemical. But that may be due to oversaturation in such things on my part.

Isn't it something along the lines of "as yet unformed"? I know Stephen Donaldson tended to overuse it like a motherfucker in the homas Covenant books...

the cat's iao

01:35 / 12.08.04

Yeah, that's about right. I've got 'just begun' and 'undeveloped'. So it could be used in an alchemical or magickal context, but not necessarily. All in all, I think it's an excellent word to use for a name!

'inchoate pantheon of nonexistent gods' is a lyric in a song i'm listening to

Bastard Tweed

01:37 / 12.08.04

Regardless, wouldn't you rather refer to Pac-Man?

unheimlich manoeuvre

01:37 / 12.08.04

yeah maominstoat is about right. czernobog is a gaiman character?

....

how is everyone?

Bastard Tweed

01:38 / 12.08.04

Yeah, he's a god from ancient Slavic mythology that he appropriated as a character.

i still have a cold

FLUIDS!

That's gotta be up there among the weirder expletives I've heard recently, Czernobog...

Bastard Tweed

01:46 / 12.08.04

He's got a cold. Thought I might be able to scare it away. Y'know, like how you shout, "BEAVERS!" to get rid of that pesky grove of trees that's been bugging you all day.

unheimlich manoeuvre

01:46 / 12.08.04

thanks iao.

i used to be 'unheimlich manoeuvre', only no-one got the pun and everyone thought i was deutsche...

subculture: i recommend hot lemon and honey, if you can stomache it?

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

01:49 / 12.08.04

I thought unheimlich maneouvre was a great name.

the cat's iao

01:50 / 12.08.04

Hi I'm back from the grocery store--betcha' didn't even know I was gone dija' huh?

I have a cold too! I caught it about two weeks ago, and it has been in remission for the last week and a half, but these last couple of days have seen the beginnings of plenty of sneezing and back to the runny nose. SUXXOR!

subcultureofone

01:52 / 12.08.04

actually i think i shouted 'boo' at you for the hiccups. i'll try the lemon and honey- last night it was gingerale and scotch and echinacea. and i'm probably female

Bastard Tweed

01:57 / 12.08.04

Probably female? What an odd phrasing. I wonder why-

Oh! Dearie me.
I used one of those abhorrent gender specific pronouns.
Sorry, still haven't gotten into the flow of the vernac here.

And "Boo!" would never work. Hiccups have never feared booes. You gotta get inside there heads, learn what they truly loathe, only then can you slap 'em silly with exclamations.

Where heads?

Im baaaack! The crickets outside are deafening in their constant cacophony; announcing the onset of fall and doling out wistful streams of rememberances of days long past.

Bastard Tweed

02:02 / 12.08.04

Sorry, I meant, "get inside there, heads" referring to the current denizens of this thread as heads, a colloquial abbreviation of "talking heads". It's what we do round these parts.

Dick.

lol.

Oh. I thought you were indicating a place where we could get inside some heads, and I wanted to know a bit more, since you were kinda' vague about the location.

Clark.

02:08 / 12.08.04

i didnt mean it to be a pronoun thing so much as an 'i'm sick' thing

Kent.

Well, you'd phrased your question in rather terse tones, implying that you were making a claim of denigration due to simple grammarical error. So, I responded in my own little way.

Susan.

subcultureofone

02:14 / 12.08.04

ok
i should go to sleep now
goodnight all

FLUIDS!

Good night subcultureofone!

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

02:17 / 12.08.04

G'night!

the cat's iao

02:18 / 12.08.04

You mean you weren't quoting PKD from The Man Who Japed? My mistake. And to think I used that Arthur C. Clarke quote for nothing...

G'night subcultureofone!

Bastard Tweed

02:24 / 12.08.04

Damn! Damn!

I've been outquoted.
I hate it when that happens.
