"Heloin, why is there a snail in the TET banner? Who is Kannap?" Asks one of the bright-eyed new regulars, innocently and eagerly.

Heloin grins in a nostalgic yet melancholic way, a peculiar expression that one only makes when reminiscing about happy times. Her eye twinkles - a flash of TET past.

"We burned him for heresy" She says.

The really funny part is, the burning for heresy was before my time. I've only been a TET regular for two and a half years.


Ouch, way to make me feel old.

No, this thread is a poor allegory for the principle of superposition.

The good thing about Kannap is that we can burn him for heresy as many times as we'd like. Speaking of... well would you look at the time!

It's "burn Kannap for heresy" O' Clock. Funny that.


it's 5 o'clock somewhere.

Pretty sure it was just the joke line in an OP of a TET thread from 2015 (accessible via the quote in my sig)

I don't know why it stuck around as an ongoing bit over the years but I'm not complaining. Makes me feel warm inside - and outside - oh, that's just the fire.

Looking back at old threads, and two TETs before the burning for heresy, the joke line was "Please remember to visit beautiful Mount Ethel," which is cute.

Don't worry, I'm fairly sure your younger then me. That should make you feel young again, or old if you really want.

Sounds like TET got more hardcore over the years. I wonder what the next clever reference will be. Or is the ritualistic Kannap burning peak?

Well he is 23, and I'm pretty sure he's like a year or two older than me. so take that what you will.

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie
That's Amore
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine
That's Amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

That means Kannap is ±3 years old than me.

I can't remember five years ago, I'm lucky if I remember what I did yesterday.

I don't remember when your birthday is right now. We're both 23 so the difference isn't much. And besides, we're both kids compared to Ethel.

I can still remember certain stuff from as far back as from when I was in kindergarten, no joke.
