(I'm currently running an occasional roleplaying game based on the "Fallout" setting.
Our heroes were raised in a social-experimental Vault made up almost entirely of
females -- Mr. Silver)
8:43 AM Mr. Silver
You know, in the Fallout game - You're going to have interesting trouble dealing with men.
(Vaulter) "Yeah, you're pretty tough, 'Spikes'...but we'll only deal with the woman in charge, not her toady. And I'll bet she'll be PRET-ty interested to hear how you've been talking behind her back. Right guys?"
(gang leader) "...W-whut?"
8:55 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
Yeah...all points I never realized.
Growing up in a vault of women....our clothes are probably all color coordinated, and we have manicured hands and such. LOL
Attack of the Metrosexuals from the Vault!!
9:00 AM Mr. Silver
Well...not so awful as that.
The scouts were raised to be dead butch by design. But yeah, in a matriarchal society where you were outnumbered 982 to 18, you probably picked up some oddities.
9:05 AM Mr. Gray
"What's up with those newcomers?”
“Them weirdos in the baby blue jumpsuits?”
9:05 AM Mr. Green
A society run by women... how can we have not picked up oddities?!
9:06 AM Mr. Gray
“Oddities” is Mr. Silver's nice way of saying "You're insane after years of emotional abuse" LOL
9:14 AM Mr. Yellow
(Three Dog) "Hello chiiiiiiildren! You are not going to believe what happened today. Apparently some metrosexuals crawled up out of a Vault long thought empty. Word is they were all dressed in powder blue jump suits with pink accent stripes. They all had well manicured nails and perfectly done hair."
9:17 AM Mr. Silver
"They came out and are clean, people."
9:20 AM Mr. Silver
Identify the vaulters from Project Amazonia:
lol
9:21 AM Mr. Gray
LOL
9:21 AM Mr. Silver
"Why are you dressed like that? What's with the toy gun?"
9:23 AM Mr. Silver
"Check the survival kits...holdout pistol...those really cute jumpsuits with the chevrons...hair gel...freeze-dried rations..."
9:24 AM Mr. Gray
LMAO
9:40 AM Mr. Silver
So we were just talking about "Teenagers From Outer Space"...
9:41 AM Mr. Gray
Oh were you? Interesting topic.
9:41 AM Mr. Silver
On your side Mr. Gray...
9:41 AM Mr. Gray
Ohhh...thought you started it up over here too. Hehe
9:41 AM Mr. Brown
What's considered teenaged if they are from space?
9:32 AM Mr. Silver
I only remember the one riff on that movie. Tom Servo - "Really OLD teenagers from outer space!"
Always amazed me how many actors they got in what looked like their late 20s early 30s to play "teens".
9:32 AM Mr. Green
That's what I was thinking... they look... old.
9:37 AM Mr. Silver
"I'm in Ms Fern's freshman English class!"
"...You, uh...mentoring her before retirement or something?"
9:42 AM Mr. Silver
I was wondering if production houses in the 50s and 60s just found it too big of a hassle to hire real teenaged actors.
9:43 AM Mr. Brown
It would be.
“Well we can't have kids kissing on film, that's against the law and morally wrong.”
9:46 AM Mr. Gray
Yeah...not many from that era that were teen stars. Maybe Elizabeth Taylor. But most "teens" seemed to be 30+ LOL
9:46 AM Mr. Blue
In "Girl In The Gold Boots" there's a 'young street tough' that's played by a 50 year old guy.
9:47 AM Mr. Gray
50 years young!
9:47 AM Mr. Brown
Wow! That is a stretch.
9:49 AM Mr. Silver
"Let's get the gang and hit the malt shop! I'll ride my bike over to meet you there in 20 minutes after I have a shave and stop in at the VFW for a couple bourbons!"
11:33 AM Mr. Silver
A personal appeal from Wikipedia programmer Mr. Harris. "Please send sunglasses."
11:39 AM Mr. Blue
A personal appeal from Wikipedia programmer Brandon Harris: "Come to my Tantric Yoga class at The Learning Annex! Tea and essential oils will be provided."
11:42 AM Mr. Silver
"Turn ons: primal drumming, organic cooking, lots of weed."
That came about, BTW, because of this email from El Diablo.
(El Diablo) "I was checking on a website where I had applied for a job in the middle east to see if it was processed yet and found out I applied for another job yesterday without doing so and I can't withdraw from it because the posting is closed. Curiosity is killing me as to what/where it is. The only thing I know is 'site manager' is the title."
(Me) "Wait…so you “applied” for a job you didn’t apply for and can’t withdraw it or find out where or what it is? Sounds like you just got volunteered by mysterious forces."
11:46 AM Mr. Blue
If he's accepted for the job he also can't decline it. He will be whisked away by men with thick accents in ski masks in a windowless van.
11:47 AM Mr. Gray
Yep....the Illuminati is out to get him!
Whisked away to some deep vault in the Swiss mountains never to be seen again.
11:50 AM Mr. Silver
"You vill repair ooo-foe computer, Herr Dek-heart!"
11:53 AM Mr. Blue
"Ve plan to take over ze vorld! But our computer iz slow like das dial-up!"
11:56 AM Mr. Gray
El Diablo would fit in well.
12:01 PM Mr. Silver
(interviewer, all but hands and dossier hidden in darkness behind desk) "El Diablo... (sifts though pages) Real name Edmund Dekkard...so...a Spaniard, then? Still have ties to the PCE?"
12:05 PM Mr. Silver
"I'm an American. What's the heck is the PCE?"
"... Well played, Senor Dekkard..."
