im permabanned poster poperstomper95. i first started reading ephesians when i was about 12. by 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of “grace” and tried to channel it constantly, until my thought process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like “i got your good works right here pal” and “i love making GBS threads inside the pope's hat” in my head for hours, and i would get really paranoid, start seeing things in the corners of my eyes etc, basically beer-induced schizophrenia. im now on a diet of worms. i always wondered what the kind of “ironic” style of latin humor was all about; i think it’s the unconscious leaking in to the conscious, what jungian theory considered to be the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal syptoms. i would advise all people who “get” latin to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to wearing silly robes. peace.

Now this makes me think what other posts/threads on this forum have made me laugh that hard as well

- Hulk Hogan meat shoes
- the one crazy lady who claimed to have multiple personalities, one of them being a snarky rear end in a top hat called "Lucifer Gucifer"
- what Phlegmish linked
- the one guy who draw himself as a boy in a public toilet, but his drawing was so lovely nobody knew what was going on
- Anime Hitler was pretty good as well

With that said, if this thread gets any seriousposts at all then I pray for your soul :shrug:

okay sure (this is also what I think of most genre fiction)

"Let's do this"
"Aye, onneleigh as' ret as ye erre."

Fizzlewort von Science Fiction Name looked over to his loyal companion, Thruddsworth. He had once been a simple haberdasher; short and stocky and rather ugly. Once Magic had entered into the World of Science Fiction Fantasy Name, he had changed. Rapidly. His beard grew. He started speaking in a thick Scottish accent. Gained an affinity for machines and a +1 on his Fortitude saves.

The ominous citadel doors in front of them were foreboding. And made of marble. Thruddsworth raised his right hand, covered in a steam-powered gauntlet that was also +2 against werewolves and possibly from the Old Races spoken of in Chapter 2, against the keypad of the door. He slowly depressed a button on his gauntlet, and his hand sprung into action of its own accord. Up. Down. Up and to the left. At once, cutting over again, immediately, to the right. The signum crucis. An ancient symbol, its meaning unknown.

The doors groaned open. The inside was filled with strange new things; icons, crucifixes, funny hats. Wondrous treasures from the Old Races. They couldn't believe their luck. But lo, who draws near but a bearded man in a polo shirt and khakis.

"Who goes there?" said Fizzlewort.

The bearded man looked at them in contempt and said "actually, slavery was a fair institution and the Holocaust wasn't real."

"Erin go braugh we'd meddled inte some Orthodox Facebook group, e're man fer he's self!"

Who was that one guy who didnt realized he was lactose Intolerant and asked goons why he was having horrible shits and goons figured out that everything he ate had cheese in it?

I don't remember his name either, only that her was getting into trouble with his boss because he was farting so much at work and when (after it turned out that he ate unholy amounts of cheese every day) goons told him to cut down on his cheese eating he flat out said that he'd rather get fired instead

it's awfully derivative of "barack is now the size of an oak tree" but I give it a solid B+ to A- regardless.

It's got a totally different narrative structure though, and except “POTUS being turned into a magical being“ (apparently a nascent genre of literary fiction) they have hardly anything in common imo. I give both an A+.

No. I thought JKR implied that Dumbledore had a 'more than friends' relationship with Hagrid. Why else would you give a convicted child murder a job at the same place he committed child murder in?

I mean, even if the big D knew it wasn't really Hagrid that murdered the girl, wizard court still convicted him and upheld the conviction. Even a wizard principal would have to pull massive strings to let Hagrid on school ground. Let alone give him a job with children. Why do that unless you wanted easy access to him?

The whole deposition (or what's available online anyway) is hilarious, because Sterling just can't stop himself from describing his sexual encounters in detail, no matter what the actual question was.

quote:

Q: Sir, the same woman who worked for you, Esmeralda, she was also in New York with Edith and Alexandra, wasn't she?
A: She was with somebody. I don't remember now who it was.
Q: You don't remember whether it was Esmeralda or not?
A: All I remember is I walked into the room. I opened the door and this woman standing there totally nude, totally nude.
Q: That is all you remember?
A: And she said, boy, you are going to have the best time that you ever had in your life. And then she just walked over to the bed. She laid there. Spread her legs out. And it was the most incredible sight. It was exciting, and it was stimulating.
Q: So you didn't forget about that particular experience?
A: A man doesn't forget about it because I never had an experience when I opened the door in a hotel room adn the girl was standing there stark nude, you know, with her hands up in the air. You know, boy, am I waiting for you

I hope they made him keep his hands where the judge could see them during the interview.
