Jugorum, a game for everyone!

[Black_Bird]

This is a practice in ego silencing and self control. Two words have been chosen, Dhalgren and Black Bird are avoiding typing in those words for this evening. Each time either of us uses one of those two words, we cut a tip of one finger. Black Bird is up to two fingers... Dhalgren, misteress of self control, has only cut one.

Anyone who wishes may join in.

May this raven render himself exempt to share those two evil words we are avoiding?

 

[phrodeau]

I'll guess you are avoiding typing the words "I" and "me". If it helps, here are a few examples that you can cut and paste:
I I I I I
Me Me Me me me me
I I I I I
Me Me Me me me me
I I I I I
Me Me Me me me me

 

[Dhalgren]

Yes..my dear raven, do share!

~smiles~

 

[Dhalgren]

Ah..you are half right, phrodeau.

 

[Todd-'o'-Vision]

Sorry i don't do self mutilation for anyone

Mutilation is such a strong word, Todd.

It’s an exercise in letting go of one's ego..

All emails written tonight have not included those words.

Haven’t spoken them out loud, as well.

Cutting.. blood letting is just a tool of remembering to forget in a mind’s process.

 

[Dhalgren]

Damn you BB..

Reading pages like that..always put me in a randy mood.
~grins~

 

[Black_Bird]

Damn you BB..

Reading pages like that..always put me in a randy mood.
~grins~

Should there be more written? More... dirty whispers?

 

[Todd-'o'-Vision]

to me cutting yourself for saying a word is a strong unecceasry action I prefer the quarter discipline

 

[Dhalgren]

You were writing that presently?

~oh, now color me impressed..as well~

 

[Black_Bird]

You were writing that presently?

~oh, now color me impressed..as well~

???

You mean would it be written while under this restriction? Yes.

... or are we talking about similar things?

 

[Dhalgren]

Now this...is an absolute must see!


~waiting patiently for your words~


We are *always* talking about similiar things, BB.


(didn't know if your dirty whispers were written presently..or if you were C/P from yourself)

 

[phrodeau]

Does the winner get a jug o' rum, then?

 

[Black_Bird]

One in that Dirty Whispers thread, and two in chat. One hand.

Just having a hell of a time here... LOL! I'm going to bed.

 

[Dhalgren]

Heal soon..misterman.

Goodnight..

 

[Black_Bird]

Didn't last long...

Try again some other time perhaps.

My ego is too damn loud! LOL.

The title of the book is hard to understand.
Liber= 'book'
Vel= 'either' (usually with another 'vel' before the next item)
Al = arabic for 'the'
jugorum = "of yokes" possessive plural, refers to the wooden device to allow two oxen to pull a plough. Symbolically means servitude as in "sub jugum" to go under the yoke = to admit defeat.
Therefore the title of the book means
"An arabic book either belonging to submissions (or not)"
Hovever the grammar of the second person singular in the archaic english, "thee", "thine" etc is unusually correct.

There you go- a perfect example of how someone can write a completely ego-bound and closed minded comment without a singel personal pronoun.
Defeating the ego takes a lot of work, doesn't it?
