Order of the Stick 316

This month's Dragon has Haley actually speaking again (albeit in 1 panel).

Very refreshing.

Yes, but the Dragon strips aren't connected to the actual story...

That's... very disturbing.

The politically correct term is "creative."

The politically correct term is "creative."

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

How are people deciphering what Haley says?

Thank you. I'll take that as a compliment.

It's a simple letter-substitution cipher (e.g., X is actually A). And, I think he's used the same cipher all along. Shortly after a new OotS gets posted, someone always posts the Haley translation on the Giant in the Playground message boards.

It's not the same cipher, but letter-substitution ciphers are puzzles sold at Wal-Mart, not Ph. D. material.

Now, what that says about you, I won't go into.

I like alternate ways to say things. If you ever do something on the fly, or don't come up with plans for something you need to do, you weren't being lazy in lack of preparation, you had just planned "organically."

Sounds much better doesn't it? Nothing wrong with planning organically!

Mensa puzzles are sold at Wal-Mart too. I'm not sure your logic holds (not that I disagree with your point).
