:wave:
It's okay for now... this is going to be a big week for me I think, but everything should go fine :). Today I've just got some study to do. You? |
Big as in....?
|
Just like, an important one in the long term.
|
Because of?
|
Like, exams and stuff.
|
Exams blow. I have them this week too.
|
I just took the Grand Blackadder Quiz and got full marks. It was a little disappointing. It was obviously designed to challenge the casual fan, not the hardcore addict.
|
Grand Blackadder?
|
Then full marks on the Blackadder I quiz.
|
What is it?! Silly Americans like me don't know!
|
Then again on the Blackadder II quiz.
|
I'm still lost.
|
Blackadder is :cool:.
|
And then the Blackadder III quiz
|
Anyway back in a while, showering.
|
Argg..... I feel stupid...
|
And also the Blackadder Goes Forth quiz.
Well that was easy. |
Oh, sorry, classic British comedy. Rowan Atkinson, with regular spots from Hugh Laurie, Rik Mayall, Stephen Fry, Tony Robinson and Tim McInnery.

|
Congrats?
|
Thank you.
|
Welcome.
|
Sooo... has anyone been keeping up with the closed thread poetry?
|
I haven't, because I don't know what it is. I have been thinking around some lyrics lately though...
|
Recently I've been putting in a line from one of my favourite poems into any dud thread I close.
|
Closed what?
/Back. |
Ohh... That's what that was... I saw that little bit in the Adam's Ant one.
|
Heh, go back and read it again.
When I'm through with this one (Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley) I'll be taking recommendations for the next one! |

I've noticed the poetry. Haven't been keeping up though. |
Ozymandius
by: Percy Bysshe Shelley I met a traveler from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whos frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandius, king of kings: Look on my words, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away. |
Ohh.... now I get it!
|
How about "The Walrus and the Carpenter"? That would be interesting...
|
Maybe some stupidly long epic, like the one about the three heroes of the Tiber.
I forget what it's called right now, but it's stupidly long. |
/Watches the Young Ones tape again.
w00t studying today. |
Do Beowulf! The whole thing is a song, so it counts as poetry right?
|

EPIC! 70 verses... |
Too long for me...
|
We studied this in an English class, long ago.
|
Think of how many threads you'd have to close wintermute.
|
It'd be a mission and a half...
I think with that one I'd do a verse per thread. |
