Hehe, it's nothing to do with sex, your mind is clearly in the gutter. It's just another word for mate.

Aw, he's a nice guy. His boyfriend does leave the room when the two of us start talking, though.

Yes he has, and I'll be sure to ask about Blackpool the next time I see him.

Ladies and gentlemen, I regret to inform you that at 17:17 GMT a murder occurred. A poor, innocent thread, "Thread Must Die!" (known to its friends as "Not that bloody thread!") was found, stabbed repeatedly. Closer examination revealed signs of serious trauma and mutilation.

The police believe that they are closing in on the killer. "We think we're onto him," said Chieft Inspector Scott, "but, dang it, we just ain't got a hold of the scoundrel yet!"

Released information by the authorities states that they are searching for a young Englishman known only as "RLacey". The police description has him marked down as a handsome man in his late teens.

Anyone with information regarding this case should contact the authorities in a different thread.


This thread has now been closed pending further investigation by forensics teams.

So I guess that means we don't post on the thread until Mira logs on later?

A very creative approach you took there, Mr. Lacey. Too bad it's all for naught.

No, I never said that. I was referring to the creative approach I took in writing the post, not the assumption that you lept to .

Hey! I can't remember you handing in a Master Planâ„¢ request form! And do you even have a license to carry a Master Planâ„¢? I think not!


Request forms are available in all Embassies of the Grand Loony Empress. They can be handed in at the office of Loony Administration on ever second Friday the 13th of the year.
Business hours are:
Monday to Thurday - 9:00 to 14:00 (Closed for lunch from 12:30 to 13:00)
Weekends and Holidays - 8:00 to 13:00.
The Office is closed on Fridays and on days ending with an uneven number.

Please refrain from using any Master Planâ„¢ you might find or carry in your possession (You better not let me catch you without a license in the latter case!), lest you face the standard punishment for such a crime - It involves Herring Twinkies, and three hectoliters of Felt Pen ink. Don't ask.

"Do we even have an embassy? I mean, you are the Loony Empress of the *WORLD*, thus all the world is your Empire."

Yeah, that's the good thing. I hate bureaucraty.

"I see. *grins*"

I handed it in Thursday 12th in preparation for the next day? Did you not get it? Perhaps you should check the integrity of your employees.

And I do wonder what this Herring Twinkies/felt pen thing is .

You are so cruel, your higheness. How can we possibly not ask now? Oh, please tell us and save us from the torment, your Grand Loonyness.

No wonder he thinks we're all minging then. I've never seen such a huge crowd of mutants in all my life. No offence to Blackpool of course

I doubt that a town gets easily angered. Its inhabitants might, mind you ...

Well it doesn't matter, if they come to knock down my door I'll just hold up a mirror and they'll turn to stone

Why bother holding a mirror out at a fourty-five degree angle? Why not just look directly at them to turn them to stone? Or does the reflection add something?

Wooohhhh! Seebs, I think Rob just said that you are ugly enough to turn mutants from Blackpool into stones just by staring at them.

Fight! Fight! Fight!
