Not Just for Newbies Anymore!
This thread is Not Just For Newbies Anymore!
Oh, no, now it's for the Remarkably Silly crowd and the gawkers who come to marvel at our fol-de-rol!
This week I'll be enthralling random passerby with the most important aspects of Antarctican culture. I've just been bombarded by the thousands... okay, hundreds...well, dozens...fine, the one PM* I got asking about our great and ancient culture.
SOOOOOOOOOO.... Tune in this week if you're anthropologically inclined or just plain off your rocker!
(Oh, and if you're just now happening on this thread - don't bother reading the back posts to gain context. There isn't any. At least, there's nothing that will make more sense if you know the details of it.)
*Okay, well, it was written in kzinti, and I paid more attention in fireworks class than seventh-grade Diabolical Languages**. After much dialogue, it was established that the kzin*** was not asking about my culture, but rather trying to sell me pills to enlarge something I haven't got. Either that or wondering where the lavatory was. I'm not too clear on that point.
**If you recognise this quote, see me. You are remarkably clever and deserve a prize.
***Recognising this reference doesn't take nearly as much cleverness, but I would still be impressed. Really.
