    Henceforth!

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    As it's been defunct for roughly 200 years, and I haven't seen any takers, I'm assuming the title of Holy Roman Emperor. Henceforth, I am Holy Roman Emperor Gunnar I, or "HRE Gunnar" for short. (Pronounced "Hrri," with a rolled R.)
    Also, my friend Chris has assumed the post of Grand Vizier, because that's another cool title.

    New Game

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    Remember that game where I gave you the definition of a word (La-la-land) and you had to guess what it was?
    Guess what.
     
    It's back with a vengeance.
     
    Don't use Google or anything.
    Here's the definition:

    (I swear, that's actually a definition.)
     
    Get thinking, now.

    Papu & Rangi

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    Remember that part of the MNOLG where you're talking to Nokama and she mentions Papu and Rangi? Well they're actually two of the Maori's main gods, I just found out. Though I still don't like that the names were changed, I now understand why they may have been a bit offended.
     
    EDIT: Those who have seen the 2009 sets may be unnerved by one of the gods' names. Don't PM Greg over it, though, I already have and he says there's nothing to do at this point.

    Gunfights 8

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    In his latest movie, action hero Chris Caliber has to track down a vicious serial killer known only as "The Beekeeper." (We're only starting filming on this tomorrow, so it'll be a while... But believe me, it's gonna be awesome.)

    Eww...

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    I had a really weird dream last night/this morning.
     
    It began with me on 1700's-1800's style ship. There were huge swells and lightning and thunder, etc., and we found a small row-boat adrift. There were three men in it: a short bald one, a taller balding one, and an average, slightly old one. They claimed to be lost at sea, so we let them onto our ship, but the third man was left alone briefly as he unloaded a large trunk of unknown objects.
     
    Several months passed with no greatly unusual occurrences, although every couple days the first two men would develop strange growths on their arms, legs, and faces that nearly resembled small tumors. The third man had become a recluse who never came out of his quarters. The first two men had taken to wearing old rags, and the third had, on the rare occasions he was seen, been wearing a strange coat and sometimes goggles.
     
    After several weeks, a crewmember was found dead under mysterious circumstances. We soon decided that it was one of the first two men, and they were kept under a close watch. Several days passed, and one excessively stormy night, the two men went berserk. They had apparently cracked under stress, and were now running around the halls attacking people.
     
    We attacked back, shooting and sniping from hidden places. We finally managed to kill them, but soon the third man emerged from his cabin, wearing a strange, form-fitting metal suit. Only his eyes were showing, and he was covered in what looked like needles. I tried to shoot this man, too, but the person I was with stopped me, saying he hadn't yet made a move against us. He began to speak:
     
    "So... I see you've done away with my test subjects. Less work for me, I suppose."
     
    "Test subjects?" I asked.
     
    "Yes. Over the last several years I've been searching for immortality. I'm getting older, but I'm not content to stop living yet."
     
    "What's the metal suit for, though?"
     
    "I have discovered that the key to immortality involves the eradication of lysosomes and the acceleration of regeneration. Lysosomes, you see, break down dead tissue and the gills and webbed fingers you have before birth. They are responsible for old age as well. But if I break down the lysosomes and repair my old age with this regeneration, I will never die of old age! These needles on the outside will inject me with the chemicals I have developed!"
     
    "Then why have those two men tried to kill so many people?"
     
    "They are... Failed experiments. Their strange growths are areas where regeneration went rampant and they actually grew new things... They went insane when the inside of their heads grew and applied pressure to their brains..."
     
    With that, he pulled down on a string hanging from his mask, and the needles immediately plunged into his skin. He gasped and fell over, no doubt from the pain of being injected all over his body. We rushed to help him but he looked up and struck my partner knocking him across the room. I shot him, but it merely bounced off of his metal armor. He tore off his metal suit to reveal a young man where an elderly one had been earlier. The lysosomes had disappeared, and the regeneration had counteracted his age.
     
    The regeneration continued, however, and he began developing blemishes and growths all over. Random body parts began changing, such as his nose lengthening and sagging downwards, his eyes bulging and growing sickly green, and his fingers extending rapidly to a length of a foot or so.
     
    When he had nothing left to regenerate, he began merely generating. Feelers erupted from his body, as did a variety of other limbs. He developed tons of pigment, turning his pale body brown. Soon he began to take on the characteristics of an unborn human: he grew webbing between his elongated fingers, his skin became transparent in a variety of places, etc. He soon even grew the gills of an unborn child, and, struggling to breathe, he raced away and threw himself into the stormy ocean.
     
     
     
    And... Then I woke up. Cool, yes?

    Hurt Feelings

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    Have you ever been made fun of 'cause of where you were from?
    Have you ever been dissed over the intercom?
    Have you ever found a gift you've given thrown away?
    Have you ever been told that you're the wrong shape?
    Have you ever been told you're Miss New Zealand?
    Have you ever had...
     
    Hurt feelings?

    Short Circuit

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    Has anyone here seen the movie Short Circuit? If you haven't, I suggest you do. It's a good movie.
    It's about a military robot (Number 5) who is struck my lightning and malfunctions. He develops a personality and believes he is alive. The military tries to hunt him down, and awesomeness ensues.
    Here's a photo of him.

    There's also a sequel, which is one of few sequels to be as good as the original. I suggest you rent them.

    So this is how it's gonna work:
    Many parts of the movies were poorly explained because they were just stupid that way, sometimes. So all you storyline buffs are going to come up with theories that explain these discrepancies, okay? For the Supa Supa Theory Challenge.
    The best of these theories I'll ask Greg about (Using my incredible powers of persuasion), and if you're lucky maybe it'll become canon.
     
    The challenge:
    Compose a theory to explain how Takanuva was revived at the end of MoL.

    I really love the Vahki slogans... So Soviet...
     
    "A busy Matoran is a happy Matoran."
    (Goes without saying...)
     
    "Pride in the elite."
    (So Soviet...)
     
    "For peace and the law."
    (Not the Matoran's well-being, just THE LAW.)
     
    "Thoughts can be dangerous."
    (Oh no, Blogalert!)
     
    "Might makes right."
    (It sure does.)
     
    "Obedience is happiness."
    (Most communist one of all.)

    Murty Crinchmas

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    Well, due to mudslides, my family's been unable to leave the neighborhood all week, so our Christmas this year has been rather... humble. I got the following:
    A Kayak Full of Ghosts (A book of Inuit folklore) The Soundtrack to Spirited Away
    Red Star Over Russia: A Visual History of the Soviet Union (Basically, a collection of propaganda)
    A hardcover copy of The Terror by Dan Simmons (Awesome book)
    Cthulhu Dice (A game played with a 12-sided die that my cousin got me as a joke, because it's based entirely on a single pun: "Losing your marbles.")
    Disney That Never Was: The Stories and Art of Five Decades of Unproduced Animation (Includes info on a Walt Disney/Salvador Dali collaboration that was cancelled at the last minute, though they apparently became good friends.)
    Strawberry Ramune
    Cookies my sister made
    Root beer
    Vinegar
    A WEBBED CAM (Here's the first video I recorded for my friend Matt's Facebook profile.)
    So not too much. Luckily, my birthday's on the 29th, so I'll probably get some more stuff then.

    Okay, this is short, but...
    Why is everyone misspelling the word "flaming?" Flamming? What's that? Is that like... Flan? 'Cause that's closer to spam, anyways. You know, as they're both food.
     
    But members, please remember:
    One consonant makes a long "A," as in "plate" or "aim."
    Two consonants make a short "A," as in "tag..." Or "flam."

    Remember, you can make a difference. (Using spell check.)

    Inception

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    The ultimate brainheist.
     
    They need to make a sequel about Cobb living a boring domestic life after getting back to his kids, using his inception for menial tasks. The movie would follow him as he delves deep into his new dog's subconscious, trying to plant the idea that it shouldn't poop inside of the house.

    Yeti

    By Wrinkledlion X,

    Imagine yourself in this situation.
     
    If a shady-looking Tibetan monk offered you a Yeti-fur rug in a Himalayan back-alley...
    Would you buy it?
