Alright. Since y'all seem bound and determined to keep on about that aspect of what I said and get the bloody thread shut down, I'm going to go ahead and point out what I started to say in my response to Tom Cashel:

[edit: Oh, no you're not!]

But I didn't want to get into all that. Can we go back to just talking about how cool it might be to see people riding around in a nifty car again? Or winning a contest? Thanks.

Edited by Pielorinho: Reason: you know better than to get political

Ok, Tom. Look what you've done.... you've gone and gotten "The Loyal Fury" all fired up and cheesed off!

Torm: whatever it was, probably wasn't very "paladinic"..... ;)

I've lived all over, and read from all over, and my vocabulary is a terrible hodge-podge. And I have a tendency to quickly adapt to match the accent and speaking pattern of whomever I'm talking to. One of the more embarassing moments I had back when I was in computer sales was when I and the Australian couple I was showing some systems to suddenly realized that for about the last five minutes of the thirty or so we had been talking, I had been talking like them. Fortunately, they were understanding and didn't think I was making fun of them or anything. :)

I also can do a pretty good job of adapting accents and mixing them in "liberally" in my speech. I don't really sound like someone who's spent most of her life living in NC..... I can't say I "got around" like Torm did..... :p But, if I use any accent the most, it's usually a British one. Sometimes "Yankee" too as I picked up some New Jersey accent from a coworker we had one time. A bit o' Scottish and Australian added in for "flavor". ;)

And no we can't call it a "Tormish" trait...... ;) Even if Torm does try to decree it..... :p :lol:

Southerners have plenty of mottos about New York, too :). But seriously, if you ever make it down here, I'll show you around: having just traveled to Manhattan and Brooklyn last month, I wouldn't trade places with you for the world.

I wouldn't either!! Them cabbies are psychos!!!! :eek: :confused:

Although visiting the "it was there then" World Trade Center was nifty...... :D The Statue Of Liberty gave me claustophobia tho. :(

I think, if I'm going to any big city like that, I'll just stick with DC...... the Smithsonian is sooooooooo kewl!!!!! :D

Dunno. Jessica Simpson's going to be wearing some aweful short shorts. ;)

You act like that's a BAD THING...... :p

To actually get near the topic at hand..... I loved watching the Dukes of Hazzard growing up! It was one of my favorite shows although I haven't seen it in years. I didn't have cable when TNN or whatever it was showed it. I loved how they managed to get Roscoe P. Coltrane stuck in trees, lakes, port-a-johns....... during car chases.

When a guy in our gaming group came up with a monk character, not having any good names at hand, named the poor guy "Roscoe". I immediately added the rest and he, surprisingly as he was 13 at the time(!) (he's 17 now), got the joke. :lol:

I tend to think what I said, in and of itself, was okay - but, it probably was too provacative, and I should've taken that into acc't. Actually, initially, I did take that into acc't, but everyone just kept on about it until I didn't care anymore.

But that's over now. :) To a more pressing matter that has caught my attention:

Okay, so let me get this straight: You like RPGs, classic Transformers (and think the modern ones stink), Thundercats, the Smithsonian, Dukes of Hazzard, Star Trek (and Worf's code of honor), and think that Jessica Simpson in short-shorts is a good thing. You use my holy symbol as an avatar, and either agree with me, or take up positions that I admire, in Paladin threads. You live in North Carolina....

And you're FEMALE?!

So, um, are you going to Raleigh Game Day in April?....(and, um, are you married? ) :o

(Don't be alarmed. I'm not mental, or anything. Well, not very. ;) )
