Day 57 - Better Injuries, Silly Roleplaying Gamers, 7 Billion People Are Affected By King Tut's Curse, Abba Should Have Hired Me, Male Pattern Shaving, Custom Car And Tattoo Service, And Lurid Luring

(Yesterday's entry was unexpectedly delayed by an appallingly long email delivery, so if all goes well you hundreds of loyal readers [ /100 ] might get two entries today -- Mr. Silver)

Mr. Silver

How’s the foot?

7:11 AM Mr. Gray

Vicadin = Fine

Chipped a bone in the top of the arch of my foot

So it hurts if standing or driving too long. Anything that puts weight or pressure on the arch

7:13 AM Mr. Silver

That blows, especially from a misstep

7:13 AM Mr. Gray

Yeah :/

7:13 AM Mr. Silver

Now if you'd done it doing something awesome at a concert...

7:32 AM Mr. Silver

"Yeah, Rob Zombie was working the tap while I was doin' a keg stand, and I slipped off and an amp fell over onto my foot.  Great night!"

7:33 AM Mr. Green

LOL... that would be a great night

7:36 AM Mr. Gray

Yeah exactly

Damned embarrassing to say "I broke it walking down some stairs" LOL



     (More pencil & paper gaming talk ahead -- Mr. Silver) 
 Mr. Gray
Once Pennsic is done, Brad said he is all in for D&D

7:59 AM Mr. Silver

cool

Get you guys through the rest of this story

8:01 AM Mr. Gray

YAY

We just keep running off and doing other things and dragging it out LOL

8:04 AM Mr. Silver

Heh "Well...you HAD only X, Y and Z left, but you've effectively forced me to add a AA and BB." 

8:04 AM Mr. Gray

LOL

We're good like that

8:05 AM Mr. Silver

"Cool!  Hey, what's this island here?  It's close; we should swing by to pick up supplies." 

"It's the island of permanent death with no saving throw."

"I'm in for that!" 

8:09 AM Mr. Gray

Hey, we're adventurers. If you say Island of Death, we go. That’s how it works

If you say "Island of fluffy pink bunnies and boredom" ok, we might skip it. LOL




 Mr. Silver

The three-parter I'm supposedly going to write novels for would have been a four-parter featuring a vampire the group forgot about if we hadn't had to move on.

Though the story arch was revisited by a different group for another 3-parter years later.

8:52 AM Mr. Silver

"Once upon a time, my old gaming buddies made a huge mistake...so you get a letter pleading for help."

8:55 AM Mr. Gray

Was it from prison?

hehe

9:06 AM Mr. Silver

hehe

No...More like "You're the rising stars in kingdom defense, and we have freaky crap happening."

9:13 AM Mr. Silver

Lot of fun stuff in that one.  It was the origin of the ridiculous group tradition of trying to thwart enemy scrying by covering one's mouth with the left hand and holding up the right like an Oobie hand puppet and pretending to talk with it instead (http://www.google.com/search?q=oobie&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=1070&bih=701#um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=-g4wTqKUBsrVgQfch8WKAQ&ved=0CDoQBSgA&q=oobi+puppet&spell=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=f327eac876417e58&biw=1070&bih=701)

I let it go on for a long while and then said "you know they probably can still hear you, right?" 

But we never stopped using it.

9:30 AM Mr. Gray

LOL Nice

9:34 AM Mr. Silver

There's also the classic "PC overpays" incident where the fighter flips the imbecile bar wench, "Elsie", a gold piece for a beer and:  "She grins happily and winks at you, shaking her hips and chest at you."  "Oh GREAT!  Now I'm being hit on by a toothless bar wench named Elsie!"  "Don't be ridiculous!  She has tooth!"   

9:35 AM Mr. Gray

LOL






 Mr. Gray

I can’t believe that a state elected a politician named "Flake"

Oh that figures.....Arizona


2:39 PM Mr. Silver

He looks CGI in that picture

He LOOKS like he'd be a character named Jeff Flake in the sort of computer game Leisure Suit Larry was seen in.

2:41 PM Mr. Gray

LOL

Good Call





 Mr. Brown

King Tut’s curse strikes again at Katzenjammer

9:00 AM Mr. Brown

I was upset about my schedule so I shaved my head

lol

9:09 AM Mr. Silver

Just based on hairstyle, you and Mr. Pink have both been upset about your schedules for years.

9:09 AM Mr. Brown

lol

9:10 AM Mr. Brown

This King Tut’s curse show was on this morning

So I’m reading about it again for the 5th time

9:10 AM Mr. Silver

5x conclusion - "What curse?"

9:11 AM Mr. Blue

Yeah, there really isn't one

9:11 AM Mr. Brown

Yeah, people keep connecting deaths that could have happened at anytime to the curse, like the lady in 1995 that visited the tomb and got a fungus infection in her lungs and died, or the original death by mosquito bite

9:16 AM Mr. Silver

Thousands upon thousands of Egyptians have died since 1922!  Oh the humanity!  It's the CURSE!"

9:17 AM Mr. Pink

The fact that Egypt is pretty much a 3rd world country could’ve factored into some of the diseases/deaths

9:21 AM Mr. Blue


9:30 AM Mr. Silver

So...was King Tut out there at the Nevada Test Site at some point?

9:30 AM Mr. Brown

I would say the radiation lent a hand in that cancer thing

9:31 AM Mr. Silver

Over-exposure to the radioactive "Tut Particle"

9:31 AM Mr. Blue

No, just thought that was more of a "curse" than the King Tut thing

9:31 AM Mr. Pink

The only thing that matters is: was the movie any good?

9:32 AM Mr. Brown

No, apparently it sucked






 Mr. Blue


10:05 AM Mr. Silver

(Sings to piano and string accompaniment) "You're in the mood for a dance...  And if you're in Strasbourg Fraaaaance...  You'll catch the Dancing Plague!  Cause was vague!  Sixteenth Cen-tur-eeee!  Dancing Plague!  Feel the beat of your bleeding feet!  Oh yeah!  You can dance!  You can die-ie!  Dance til no longer alive!  Ooo-ooo!  See those churls, waste away, die in the Dancing Plague!  Ooo-oooooo, oo-oo-oo-oo-ooooo!  Die in the Dancing Plague!

10:10 AM Mr. Silver

That was surprisingly hard to filk
(But I love doing it.  I was so so irritated that I couldn't improvise past the word "century" that I edited and figured out the rest today.  Bonus for you!  Now I should move on before I feel compelled to finish the whole song  -- Mr. Silver)







 Mr. Brown

Hey Mr. Pink, how often are you shaving your head?

1:12 PM Mr. Pink

Like every other day, or once every 3 days

Somewhere around there

Once the cuts heal from the previous time, lol

1:13 PM Mr. Silver

Try a razor instead of the cheese grater you've been using.

1:13 PM Mr. Pink

Haha

I bought a new razor blade made for shaving heads, so we will see how it works

1:14 PM Mr. Silver

"Keen!  It has a concave blade...look, honey, it matches my bowling ball too!"

1:15 PM Mr. Blue

Did you see that one Tosh.0 where the guy made a helmet that shaves your head?

He installed razors in it that move forward-to-back and then side-to-side

1:17 PM Mr. Brown

Ouch

I think I’m going to get a head shaving razor too, so I stop going and sliding the razor to where I nick myself

I got my ear really good last night and was bleeding for awhile

1:26 PM Mr. Pink

Yeah, we will see how it works.  I’ll let you know

I think the site was headblade.com or something like that

1:27 PM Mr. Silver

Headblade.com is where you can get the guillotines and headsman's weapons

1:27 PM Mr. Pink

haha

1:27 PM Mr. Silver

Check their link to neckstretchers.com

1:32 PM Mr. Silver

Perhaps try Nair shampoo

1:32 PM Mr. Blue

Just keep it out of your eyes







2:05 PM Mr. Blue


2:05 PM Mr. Pink

lol

Why?

2:06 PM Mr. Blue

Because it's awesome

2:07 PM Mr. Pink

With or without the orange lights on the roof rack

2:07 PM Mr. Blue

With

So people know I’m coming at all times

2:07 PM Mr. Silver

(clicks) ARGH!   Its Hugger Orange!  It burns us, Precious!

2:08 PM Mr. Blue

And a bumper sticker that says "Don't hassle me, I'm local!"

2:09 PM Mr. Silver

"Weirdo On Board" placard

2:09 PM Mr. Apple

I agree it needs the lights

2:09 PM Mr. Silver

"Fear Everything" decal

2:10 PM Mr. Apple

Maybe add a big wing on the back too?

2:11 PM Mr. Silver

Want a giant scoop for the hood too?

2:11 PM Mr. Apple

Sure haha

2:11 PM Mr. Pink

Put one of those roof scoops like they have on McLarens

2:12 PM Mr. Blue

I just want the most dumpster vehicle ever

And an off-road golf is pretty dumpster

Maybe I can get an airbrushing of a bald eagle, and an American flag in the back window, and a gun rack

2:15 PM Mr. Brown

Maybe I can airbrush an eagle on my head

2:15 PM Mr. Pink

That would be cool

You should just get a tattoo of that on your head

2:17 PM Mr. Blue

Just get hair tattooed on your head

2:17 PM Mr. Brown

I wanted to get a tattoo last weekend but Mrs. Brown would not let me go in the parlor

I was trying to think though; what I would get a tattoo of?

2:18 PM Mr. Blue

You should probably have that figured out before you walk into a tattoo parlor

2:19 PM Mr. Pink

Yes

Alexander Ovechkin on your forearm?

2:19 PM Mr. Silver

A tattoo of a butt on your butt?

2:19 PM Mr. Pink

Knowing Mr. Brown, I’m guessing Chinese symbols or some samurai thing

2:20 PM Mr. Silver

A thumbtack on your butt? 

I’ve never seen that.

"Wide Load"

2:20 PM Mr. Brown

No.  An Archangel Michael symbol on my arm

One of the symbols for that is a circle with a dot in the middle

2:22 PM Mr. Silver

Similar to a dot with a circle around it?

Perhaps you could get one of each of those

2:23 PM Mr. Blue

I already have two circles with dots in it on me

2:23 PM Mr. Brown

lol

There are also other cultures’ symbols for it too

2:24 PM Mr. Blue

Get a swastika

It means peace in Hindi

2:26 PM Mr. Pink

Get Meatwad and Master Shake tattooed on your arm

Or even better tattooed on your lower back

2:28 PM Mr. Blue

Get two cherries tattooed on your thigh

2:31 PM Mr. Silver

Hey!  Get your own face tattooed on the back of your head!

...or Voldemort's

2:33 PM Mr. Pink

haha







(Regarding a local “luring” report – Mr. Silver)

 Mr. Blue

I didn't know that straight "luring" was a crime.  Though it implies they're underage, it doesn't say so

3:04 PM Mr. Apple

After midnight, downtown, on that street? lol

3:04 PM Mr. Blue

Yeah really, they were probably prostitutes anyway

3:04 PM Mr. Apple

No surprise there lol

3:11 PM Mr. Blue

Wouldn’t it be weird if some young man driving a van tried to lure a couple of older ladies?

I bet they don't report that!

3:11 PM Mr. Silver

"The young man reported that the elderly women waved money at him and attempted to lure him out of the vehicle."

3:13 PM Mr. Apple

haha
