(no subject)

Building security at work: still stupid.
Connectivity between disaster server and disaster desktops: still nonexistent.
Flies: still sapping my kitchen.
Credit union account: there, but I don't know my number, and I need to get money out of it today.
gaaargh.

When I go home I'm throwing out everything in the refrigerator other than the milk and the butter. And then running the most violent plot I can to work it all out of my system. Hope people don't mind OH HAI SURPRIES GUNSHIPS or anything.

I'm kind of all for it, actually.

[camwyn]

Here's hoping my HL plot victims feel the same way. If I'm feeling merciful, they'll just get helicopters instead.

I've heard you actually can catch more flies with vinegar than with honey, just as a side note.

[camwyn]

I've heard much the same. Personally, I favor sticky tape over either.

More death and destruction is always win.

And X-23 makes an awesome damage sponge.

Except for vaporization. That is a no. OTHERWISE.

...And for the first time I'm glad to not be a Milliways mun. :)

[leeshajoy.livejournal.com]

Nah, that comes from the Striders and their penises of doom, not the gunships.

[varadia]

I'm pretty sure it will be a while before I don't find that funny.

*snerks*

I am not a kindly god. Never claimed to be. Fortunately, the only people subject to this are the ones who volunteered to participate in the assault on City 17 in acts_of_gord's world, rather than everyone in the game.


.... not that I don't still want Bruce the Combine gunship flying around out behind Milliways.

I mostly continue to call it that because it annoys Cam. ;P

My Alyx headvoice says NO THANK YOU.

[camwyn]

Ovipositors of doom are much more unpleasant than mere giant alien wangs.

[leeshajoy.livejournal.com]

More unpleasant than death by bukakke?

[camwyn]

Ovipositors imply that the bearer of the ovipositor is about to lay an egg in something and the egg will hatch and what's inside will eat its way out.

[leeshajoy.livejournal.com]

But the Strider's guns don't work that way, do they? :P

[camwyn]

True, they don't- but the promise of working that way is something I, for one, find immensely more disturbing. (Then again, I used to go completely berserk searching for Tentaculats during games of X-Com 2, because there was no way in hell I was going to let some flying brain sneak up on my people and infect them. I have a thing about 'oh my god WHAT'S in there??' when it comes to aliens.)

[aeons_crackshot]

Helicopters are good for me at least.:-) Before the plot even started I had an idea that Annabelle might take out a chopper by hitting the tail rotor.

My character is so more bad-ass than I could ever hope to be.

Also, what is the etiquette on who posts when in a plot thread? It seems like every one posts in turn. Is that correct?

[camwyn]

Normally there's a posting order, but since we have people from different time zones and different levels of availability, I think we can allow for whoever sees a real opportunity to tag to jump in when they spot it.

[aeons_crackshot]

Thanks! I wasn't sure, so I figured I'd ask.

... o/~ Bruce the Combine Gunship lived by the, um, scene

And frolicked in the wastelands out beyond City 17... o/~

Doesn't scan, darnit. -.-#

That would be AWESOME. I come to* Milliways for the crack, and it delivers. In bulk.

*Technically, lurk at. I can't write fanfic because I have a mental block in that department, so I'll probably never join in, but I love reading it.

[blackjack-svr.livejournal.com]

This was the final straw that made me go look at what Milliways is.

Yeah, okay, so, now I feel like I'm the last to have heard of it.
