PM] Mr. Brown:
[2:12
PM] Mr. Silver:
"They
killed the funding again."
"I
predicted that."
"Shut
up. We need another new name."
"Uh...Moon
Pancakes?"
"Awesome!
Get me a DOD funding form."
[2:14
PM] Mr. Blue:
lol
[2:16
PM] Mr. Silver:
"In
1995, the CIA reviewed the project, decided a 65% rate was worth more
than 15 guys in a shed, declassified every failed experiment and
moved everything to a secret facility on a black budget."
(Information
verified by remote viewer Lt. Henry Anderson)
[2:19
PM] Mr. Brown:
I'm
pretty sure I have remote viewed before, but not on purpose
[2:21
PM] Mr. Silver:
I
had a few successful remote view results in 7th grade
Unfortunately,
since the experiments were done at the Catholic school, the backlash
wasn't exactly a good thing.
[2:22
PM] Mr. Brown:
God
has shown me a vision - You were in the bathroom today
[2:23
PM] Mr. Silver:
Hehe
The
one I recall for sure was - each of us with a wrist watch - "Ok,
at precisely X o'clock, write down what I'm looking at."
Answered
"a book with pictures of old warplanes in it"
Which
earned me a pop-eyed spooked expression since it was correct and he
had it with him in his backpack to show me.
Being
a non-Catholic in Catholic school has its drawbacks.
Being
a non-Catholic in Catholic school with 'devil powers' lost me a
couple buddies.
[2:41
PM] Mr. Brown:
LOL
Because
logically only the Devil could give you remote viewing abilities. lol
[3:25
PM] Mr. Silver:
Right
I
made a rotten deal, apparently, because it doesn't work for crap.
[2:24
PM] Mr. Blue:
They're
going HAM with the VTO lately
[2:26
PM] Ms. Rose:
HAM?
[2:27
PM] Mr. Blue:
I
dunno what it means
[2:28
PM] Ms. Rose:
You're
such a gangster, Mr. Blue. :)
[2:30
PM] Mr. Blue:
Chuuuch
(On
the Social Status of Star Wars droids – Mr. Yellow has been playing
the Star Wars Saga roleplaying game, and some of his team have been
crazy insubordinate recently. - Mr. Silver)
[3:04
PM] Mr. Yellow:
Not
sure that would help with Ezra. I was shouting for him to move and he
kept waiting for the droid. This was during Evac. I felt as the CO I
could not get on that ship til all my people were aboard. Including
Jim that Forest had to carry back there
[3:04
PM] Mr. Silver:
Name
the droid "Tools"
Hehe
[3:04
PM] Mr. Yellow:
He
had a name - Scout
[3:05
PM] Mr. Silver:
"Will
you die for the sake of Tools? We can get more Tools."
[3:05
PM] Mr. Yellow:
Yes.
I was not going to let the droid get destroyed because he had all
the intel we came to get
[3:06
PM] Mr. Silver:
I
mean name it “Tools” as a scheme to give some player perspective
thing.
Most
SW universe characters I've seen treat droids as unreliable 3rd class
citizens even if they are smarter and more capable than the living.
[3:06
PM] Mr. Yellow:
But
the droid kept on moving. It was not stupid. Ezra was stupid.
[3:06
PM] Mr. Silver:
Yup
[3:06
PM] Mr. Yellow:
My
old Jedi preferred them to people
[3:06
PM] Mr. Silver:
Player
Characters are like that
[3:07
PM] Mr. Yellow:
Too
many people were just stupid. The entire party made fun of me for
doing that
[3:07
PM] Mr. Silver:
People
who speak Binar...bothered to learn Binar
They're
the ones who build relationships with droids
[3:07
PM] Mr. Yellow:
Yep.
Like my character
[3:08
PM] Mr. Silver:
Han
Solo clearly couldn't speak it
[3:08
PM] Mr. Yellow:
Nope
My
new character cannot speak it either, and if the droid was not
carrying the vital information I would have been less concerned
[3:09
PM] Mr. Silver:
That,
BTW, is one reason Padme giving R2-D2 and official thanks in "court"
on her space yacht was a scene that didn't work at all.
[3:10
PM] Mr. Yellow:
?
[3:10
PM] Mr. Silver:
Padme
might as well have been giving a medal to a box of Craftsman tools
They
don't speak to people...you just tell them what to fix and ignore
them.
[3:11
PM] Mr. Yellow:
R2
is the hero of the entire saga
Without
him the Empire would have won
[3:11
PM] Mr. Silver:
Yes,
R2 is great
But
in that scene in Phantom Menace, all he did was go out to fix the
ship and he didn't get blown up.
It's
the only reason they bought him from the shop and stuck him on her
yacht.
He
didn’t deserve “our thanks”. Does Queen Amidala give medals to
the toaster if it makes a perfect slice?
Hehe
[3:13
PM] Mr. Yellow:
R2D2
is one with the Force and the Force is with him
[3:14 PM] Mr. Silver:
Yes,
I agree
Point
is, who sees that they can be more? Some Jedi, and mechanics.
And
people that bother to learn to talk to them.
If
I have a free language, I always pick Binar
[3:15
PM] Mr. Yellow:
In
the book The Force Awakens, C3PO is in many a conundrum and each time
he thinks what would R2 do?
and
then comes up with the answer of what he needs to do
Could
rewrite the “What would Brian Boitano Do?” song for R2D2
[3:18
PM] Mr. Silver:
Hehehe
An
example: Bail Organa at the end of Episode 3
"Oh,
and take this protocol droid and wipe his memory so none of this gets
out."
“Why
not R2D2?”
“Meh...it’s
just a rolling toolbox that beeps a lot...who cares? It’s not a
security issue.”
And
another example
Han:
Let him have it. It's not wise to upset a Wookiee.
C-3PO:
But sir. Nobody worries about upsetting a droid.
Han: That's
cause a droid don't pull people's arms
outta of their sockets when they lose. Wookies are known to do
that."
[3:31
PM] Mr. Yellow:
Our
old droid R8 almost killed the ewok when the ewok was trying to smear
poop on him.
I
ended up giving R8 a blaster and a hidden memory core
He
is probably some crime lord out there
[3:34
PM] Mr. Silver:
Heh
Oh
The
Jedi calling General Grievous a "droid" all the time was a
rather belittling insult
Here's
another "the majority of SW people do not see droids as people"
example
Top
Secret Death Star...
In
a security station...
Just
after capturing a known rogue freighter...
Dead
security staff in the room...
The
sector security team - who would be familiar with their area and
everything in it to the point of boredom - responding to the
alert...
Probably
aware of unauthorized access to secure info by an unknown droid...
There
they find a not-even-close-to-Empire-specs 40-year-old-model
beaten and dirty GOLD protocol droid and astromech in a closet.
The
talking one tells them "they went thattaway!" and they
believe it.
And
then later tells a hopelessly awkward story about a droid
getting “overexcited”
and needing maintenance.
Still
unquestioned, the guard says "Alright" and lets the droids
go.
Mind
Boggling!!!
(Tech) "This
R2 unit of yours seems a little beat up, you want a new one?"
(Luke) "Not
on your life. That little droid and I have been through a lot
together."
(Tech) "I
was being polite, sir. I know you like your R@ unit, but I can give you a new state of the art
astromech with advanced fighter combat software."
(Luke) "No
thanks!"
(Tech) "F-ing
nut job...Ok...give the wonder kid his crappy old boltcan."
...but
Luke knew...
IMO

I started spelling Tom with an H before it became a thing”

HAH
<3
[8:38 AM] Mr. Blue:
Pronounced
like thumb
[9:11 AM] Ms. Rose:
Thom as Thumb is pretty hilarious.
[9:12 AM] Mr. Silver:
In
an ironic way
[9:13 AM] Mr. Brown:
Shaken
baby anyone?
[9:14 AM] Ms. Rose:
I
prefer my babies shaken, not stirred.
[9:16 AM] Mr. Silver:
"Inventor
of the Baby Washing Machine, the archbishop recommends tumble drying
infants on low heat to keep them fluffy."
[9:16 AM] Ms. Rose:
(rofl)(rofl)(rofl)
