I gotta go with tryp on this one. Has anyone else ever gone at looked at the members list? It's thousands of members long, yet how many people post on here on a regular basis? A hundred or so? I think that if you're going to join you might as well post so you don't pointlessly steal a good sn that someone else might have wanted.

Maybe they don't want to be attacked. Some people are really fucking rude to new people.

I see it all the time when someone just posts a tentative little question and everyone jumps all over them for not already knowing all things chuck. Or for not knowing where on the site to find the info.

Why can't we just conversate with people the way we want them to conversate with us Smile

(Conversate rocks tryp)

ok, so we'll just let the newbies post here, and we'll not attack them. i can be a very nice and patient guy, but i don't tolerate laziness (in case you have been readin the fight club threads). so anyway, where are the newbies?

Homestar Runner is the beginning and end of all humor. I bought some ballet shoes just because they had red Trogdor-like dragons on them (albeit without the beefy arms). Also I love,
absolutely love, Teen Girls Squad.

you have a point, tryp, but people don't have to post if they don't want to. how many ill Rich's are lurking among the lurkers? think about that, and be careful what you wish for.

Well at first I was sick then I was just busy and didn't feel like catching up, then I jumped off my roof and sprained my ankle and the day after that happened my computer just fucking died on me. So the last week has been spent lying in bed all day watching TV. Good lord... it has been hell. But, it seems my computer has been fixed now. Of course, now that I've said that, just watch it crash. Blah.

It was a noble effort, my dear trypdwyre! You did your best to educate the masses and bring the newbies out of the retiring little newbie-shells. But apparently the fish aren't biting today. I salute you for your brave and valiant effort!

PS--Framstedt, wtf?

Ooh, deja vu!

actually, i thought they were male and female plastic lego people. i didn't realize they had feelings one way or the other about their sexuality, nor did i stop to consider that they might, in fact, be gay.

are you going to change your avatar again soon? i kinda still miss the bear, but these guys are ok, whether they're lovers or not or just senstitive pieces of plastic.

i might, depending on what silly image i come across.
unfortunately they're both crafted in the images of males, so i guess thay are in fact (if they are plastic people lovers) gay. that might push me to get new avatar up.

votes on what he should do? flop over dead? clutch his "x" dramatically? suggestions are welcome.

i'd like to see his eyes bug out, then have hime spin around a couple of times, clutching the x (that's good) and then he falls down dead, twitching. maybe he even mouths something, a horrible scream O perchance before flopping down dead.

It'd be neat if he kind of cocked his head to the side, and it paused like that for a second, then it just kind of keeps going in that direction and totally rolls off. No drama or anything. Just. Curious tilt of the head. Oops. Head rolled off. =D

but his head isn't severed. that would be quite inaccurate. see, he has a wound on his tummy.

you could have him stagger with his arms in front of him like frankenstein's monster, then lightening bolt on the x and voila fried bear.

It doesn't have to be severed. That's why it's an Oops. You know. Heads aren't supposed to fall off. But his does. Oops. Get it?

trypdwyre

point well taken. and disx you get points for ensuring that it's not at a complication level beyond my grasp.

Well beauty often lies in simplicity. The teddy is good because he is not overly complicated and such. He's a simple little teddy bear, with a great expression on his big head. So let's keep it simple. You get all dramatic with it, and you lose that modesty that current teddy has, and you may come off like you're just trying way too hard to be clever or special or something, and that always sucks. Simple is good.

disx

And to further elaborate on the idea:

His look is that of muted distress. Something's wrong, but he's not going to give you a hard time about it, or cry to you about it, he's just gonna stand there and look forlorn. But he's curious, and he's wondering why everyone's looking at him, so he tilts his head to get a better view of his audience. Then Oops. Head falls off. And as they say, curiosity killed the cat, but our cat is a bear now. So forlorn little bear is quiet and curious, and something so simple, a slight little tilt of the head, results in his demise.

So tragic, yet reassuringly serene.

Yey.

And if he slightly raised an eyebrow when he tilted his head, that'd be nifty. Or maybe not, I'm uncertain on that one.

I think there should be a before shot of him looking happy and normal, and then he gets shot with a huge gun and when the smoke clears, he looks dead like he does right now.
