BIS Boards Reunion Tour

[Ariane]

I'm sleeping. Maybe. zzzzzzz.

this is what I did for Canada day. Too old to stay up for fireworks. Drank lots of beer, ate some good burgers though.

boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring

 

 

Well...to be honest, I kinda am.

I might eat something grilled.

[Keturah]

I'm just happy this hurricane is going to be gone by the 4th so our fireworks aren't rained out.

 

Any other 'Muricans doing anything exciting for their 4th?

 

Any of you unwashed foreginers want me to send you some freedom?

 

I made red, white and blue painted pasta necklaces with my class yesterday to show some support and stuff. But the white actually turned out to be 'Baby Pink'. America would be a much more cheerful place if the flag was Red, Baby Pink and Blue.

[Amentep]

Mess up the 60s Captain America Cartoon theme song though -

 

"When Captain America throws his mighty shield,

All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield.

If he’s lead to a fight and a duel is due,

Then the red and the baby pink and the blue’ll come through.

When Captain America throws his mighty shield."

 

- just doesn't have the same ring to it.

[Ariane]

I dunno, I think it looks pretty good...?

[Amentep]

*snorts* it does.

 

But then it replaces blue with pink, not white with pink.

Kiddies little paintbrushes not being rinsed before slopping into the white? I made a necklace too, glass beads though. It was okay, I ran out of white beads.

 

Kind of weird Sargy hasn't been around in about a month. Sure hope he's okay. Wasn't there some power outages or something up in Nova Scotia?

[Amentep]

Haven't heard of power outages - hope things okay.

['GM']

Yeah me too. Something must've came up because I know he was enjoying this little get-together of ours. Plus he hasn't answered a couple pm's from me. One is a month old now!

[Amentep]

I've been busy myself lately...

[AGX-17]

Ah, people having a go at Sargy for his spelling. It's like 1999 all over again!

Stumbling across this zambambo thread, it's not a matter of spelling so much as tone (like a pro wrestler,) and punctuation (ending every other sentence with more than one period.) Unfortunately (that's a lie, being younger puts me that much closer to cybernetic immortality,) I'm too young to have been around for the golden age to which you are referring.

 

RPing is one thing, ending half your sentence fragments with three or more periods is just incessant.

As I have mentioned to you before its not as incessant as people who feel the need to correct peoples grammar and spelling on a gaming website

[Ariane]

I like Sargy's posting style. The nostalgia makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. And if he hasn't changed it in like, 10 years, why would you think he's going to start now? so ya might as well suck it up. 

[Amentep]

Yeah asking Sargy to give up his posting style is like asking Gromnir to give up his.

 

Who'd want either to do that?

[Sarex]

O/

[Chairchucker]

Yeah asking Sargy to give up his posting style is like asking Gromnir to give up his.

I'd be OK with it to be honest, but whatevs.

['GM']

Sargy's posting style is a part of who he is.

 

But seriously, I'm worried about Sargy. This is NOT like him to be gone so long. He was so excited about this 'reunion'. I've sent 2 pm's to him that have gone unanswered for over a month now. Does anyone happen to know his last name?

[Chairchucker]

Maybe he's gone on vacation.

[Gfted1]

I don't even know his first name.

['GM']

His first name is Jason. And really CC, I think he would've said something in one of his pm's. In fact, his last pm was in response to my telling him I'd be gone for the weekend. That was June 20th. He said for us to have fun and that he'd keep an eye on things. So, you know, I'm really concerned. I don't even know what town he lived in on Nova Scotia.

[Chairchucker]

Maybe his PC's broken. Maybe his internet. Maybe he got a new puppy and that's taken all his attention. I hear puppies can be time sinks.

[Leferd]

Sargy takes super long sabbaticals from these boards. Every couple of years or so he pops up and necroposts some old threads or create new ones and waxes poetic of the days long lost from ye old BIS days and calls every one who joins up after him noobs.

 I heard from him on June 23rd. Not that it makes it much better, I guess... 

['GM']

Yeah I considered those first 2 options. Not the puppy though. I thought more of a hamster.

 

@ Leferd. But see that's the thing, waxing poetic of the days long lost.. This BIS reunion thing was something he looked forward to. But I hope you're right. I hope he's just taking a sabbatical. I kind of do that too.

 

@ Ariane. Actually it does help. But it also means he didn't reply to my pm's. Just wait 'til he shows up again!!!
