Personification Life OOC IX [CLOSED]

[Terintania]

Looks like this is still going strong. I'm thinking of maybe rejoining.

Still? It's PL, crazy is its foundation

Yes, still. It's continuing to go strong, so 'still' counts

[Tiltjuice]

It's official. We need an adventure involving cyborg, four-armed, bipedal space weasels.

Preferably named Hobart.

Don't tempt me!

Famous last words Cer.

[Swith Witherward]

It's eternal.



I'd forgotten his name was Hobart. *laughs* I think that was a one-shot written by Mandy (not PL's Mandi) during a "commercials in your nation" OOC discussion. "Why so glum, pups?" and "There you have it" commercial spots followed. They always went a little something like this, although I'm not nearly as good at writing these things as Cer and Mandy...

CAMERA PANS DINGY KITCHEN, ZOOMS IN ON DISGRUNTLED CYBORG SEATED IN FRONT OF PLATE OF PALE BISCUITS. A DOUR FACED LIZARD IN FROOFY APRON FRETS BEHIND HIS BACK.

ANNOUNCER: Say there, Brother Itum. Why so glum?

SEP: This construct made nutrition biscuits for me, but they don't taste good.

ANNOUNCER: Aw. No wonder you're glum! I bet she didn't use Happy Hobart's Special Blend Bone Meal. It's nutritious, it's delicious, and it's always fresh!

SCENE FADES TO REVEAL INDUSTRIAL VAT. THE OCCASIONAL HOOF OR HORN IS VISIBLE AS THE RED SLURRY SWIRLS AND BOILS.

ANNOUNCER: That's right! At ThadeCo, we only use the freshest ingredients. Each bag of Happy Hobart's Special Bone Meal is packed with the highest caloric count and flavor as possible to maintain your energy reserves for the entire day! Fresh from the slaughter fields to your front door!

CUT SCENE BACK TO NOW-CHEERFUL KITCHEN. THE APRONED CONSTRUCT IS SMILING AS SHE SETS A PLATTER OF VIVIDLY COLORED BISCUITS IN FRONT OF SEP. THE CYBORG IS INEXPLICABLY SMOKING A TOBACCO PIPE AS HE SLOWLY NODS IN APPROVAL.

ANNOUNCER: There you have it, Brother Itum!

ZOOM IN ON PLATTER AND A BAG OF BONE MEAL. THE 3" TALL CARTOON SIX-LEGGED SPACE WEASEL BECOMES ANIMATED.

HAPPY HOBART: Pups, ask your parents to only use Happy Hobart's Special Bone Meal, available at Krogers and other fine retailers near you! Remember, I'm fresh!



Inane, no?

[Swith Witherward]

And now we're nauseated. *nods* So much for gaming tonight. Slobo, I owe some TG replies to you!

Goodnight PL Peeps.

Goodnight Swithers. *sends Dramamine*

Um..XD Someone explain to me what Tarot Cards are.

[The BranRiech]

Um..XD Someone explain to me what Tarot Cards are.

I have some sort of idea, but I just don't know what they're about, or which ones my characters would be,

Um..XD Someone explain to me what Tarot Cards are.

They're an old set of playing cards that are frequently used for divination.

The latter I'm not sure about either but now I know.

I guess right blades?

I, uh, so it really is bone meal. I thought that was, uh, figurative. I figured it was kind of like plant-based soylent green, but I guess it really is more like soylent green.

Inane, no?

Uh, no, that was anything but inane. If anything that was brilliant but slightly insane.

[Monfrox]

>Hobart

That's the name of the company that made my work's deli meat slicer.

They make the vegetable slicer we use, the vegetable dicer, and our mixer.

[Terintania]

I don't remember what all characters I had....I'll probably keep Leroy and Wolfgang, but make new characters beyond that.

Oh, and I'll probably keep Nex

Um... thanks? Have you ever seen the old Ren and Stimpy commercials (Powdered Toast Man, Log etc)? Same concept.

Real bone meal, an excellent source of protein.

Take heart... the meal was ground salmon.

Bran and Mon, I always think of those massive conveyer belt dishwashers.

We've got a 4-sink system where I work, which is basically a fancy way to say "Tedious"

Dishes! Dishes as far as the eye can see!

Whew, I don't think I'm ready for my character to start eating sapient animals.

And since Sep needs his protein and calories I think I might invest in a lot of those. Maybe buy them wholesale, if they sell bone meal wholesale anyways.

[Giovenith]

Exam week is now over for me.

[The BranRiech]

Dishes! Dishes as far as the eye can see!

Shhh! If they look and see that we finished dishes, they'll find even more tedious things for us to do, instead of us getting paid to stand around and chat.

That's how Mondays go for me.

But...Businesses don't grow like that...

[The BranRiech]

But...Businesses don't grow like that...

But I still do what I'm paid to do, do dishes and answer calls, just that no calls come in on Mondays.

You know, I've never given much thought towards where she gets her supplies. I painted her as being hard up for cash. Constructs never pilfer anything that's actually useful, so she wouldn't steal it. Meh. Rodney supplies the ingredients; carpules are hard to come by.

She'd give Sep biscuits to keep him running.

Gio, how did the exams go?

[Giovenith]

I always do pretty good on big tests, never found them stressful like they're stereotyped to be.
