We have too many Matts

One is still too many. Far, far too many.

I really hate when people call me Matt, unless it is one of my parents and really, c'mon, they can call me whatever they want since they were the ones who named me in the first place.

See, there's a Matt in that name as well. Matts everywhere! Batten down the hatches, we're going to have to cannon them out!

Wait, hang on, should I be opening the hatches? I'm a little confused.

You should matten down the hatches.

Could one of you not change your username to Ben or James or Steve?

Actually, the Great Facestab Experiment proved only that there are too many of us named Ben. Why on Earth do you think I have to wear this mask, this fedora, why do you think I engineered that complicated accident at the pulp-making factory?

You know how this happened? I thought that Kali and SHEP had unceremoniously broken up and I was a little confused. Then I was told that instead they were going to engage in a ceremony of the nuptial fashion. You can imagine my confusion I'm sure. I dawdled over to that happy thread and regretted it (no offence but it was a little like "pass the bowl matron". More because I am a cynic than truly critical). I was like, why can't those two make up their fucking minds? This is so typical of barbelith, I know one is some kind of terrifying god and the other is a fluffy dog but REALLY.

THEN I realised it was another Matt who was having a bit of a time with the hounds of love. So you see Matt is engaged, heartbroken and not Matt at all unless his mum says so all at the same time and now we have to matten down some matches?

Basically if no other Matts could post about their relationships until they've become James or Steve or Ben that would be less confusing for me. I know that your pants are full of important items for you and that your hearts are floating on the sea of tumultuous heart rendering starfish and your mum can call you Matt but some of us are old, old ladies who don't understand these things.

Basically all you Matts are going to have your hearts stolen by Steve anyway so I just don't see why you're trying to committ yourself to any other course of action. It's obvious. Look at him

I dunno. I think I'm loads better looking than Steve so hopefully I'll get to keep my Matt.

Anna, are you...

(bites knuckles)

Are you Steve? Do you want a huggles?

The pale green sweater certainly is quite hypnotic.

Kali, I do not have the beauty or the grace of Steve. I mean, we all want to be Steve, to have his pulling power, his abs, his teeth. He wouldn't just have SHEP Kali, he'd have you too.

Everyone needs a bit of Steve.

15:46 / 04.07.07
Goodness, Steve has certainly let himself go.

Sorry, guys, but it's the rules. Anyone who doesn't love Steve gets taken out behind the chemical sheds and shot tomorrow morning.

Hey, not my fault. It's just the way things are.

DEAL.

You know, I really think Russell T. Davies missed a trick there.

Captain Steve Harkness would have been so much cooler.

19:16 / 04.07.07
Okay, I'm going with matthew in five days. I'm calling it. Nobody else take it, or I'll bring ShadowSax back...
...
for a sexy orgy.
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
19:18 / 04.07.07
Don't even joke about that.
 
 
iamus
19:21 / 04.07.07
Uh, matt?

Then again, Flux is never really around these days, so...
 
 
matthew.
19:28 / 04.07.07
He's OG Matt, but aren't I next in line for matt? Shep comes after me... although he's mod, so that's something....
 
 
Kali, Queen of Kitteh
19:40 / 04.07.07
Perhaps one day I'll claim the name Matt in my username.
 
 
matthew.
19:44 / 04.07.07
Haven't you claimed enough Matts for one 'lither?
 
 
Dead Megatron

Too many Matts, not enough Steves

Barbelith is doomed...

(How does "Dead Mattatron" sounds?)
 
 
Kali, Queen of Kitteh
20:42 / 04.07.07
Oh, I only claim one Matt. Matthew. Mine.

And Dead Mattatron sounds just fine to me.
 
 
Dead Megatron
21:07 / 04.07.07
ok, then. If the joke is still funny in 21 days time, I shall change my name to that. Not likely though...
 
 
Kali, Queen of Kitteh
21:28 / 04.07.07
It's Barbelith.

We find that joke funny until we find it, corral it, scare it with torches, and then move in to beat it DEAD.

Your asking if Barbelith can sustain a joke for 21 days?
Have you not read the thread? Can you not see that Steve's apendage has reached even this secluded cave?

Funny doesn't come into it. The jokes will not dissapear. That cannot die which does not live!
 
 
Kali, Queen of Kitteh
22:02 / 04.07.07
Of course, we can find a joke funny for 21 days?

Didn't Scarlett and that other nonce in the Temple thread prove that before???

Barbelith is nothing but a forum of jaded patient humourists. Derr! ;p

Oh Haus, if only some other time, some other place, some other interest....

I shyly second that
