Snaking the HIVE

[Blackrat]

She does protest to being held, which is really weird imo. Wouldn't an overweight cat like to be off their feet and be on the receiving end of attention?

I wouldn't think too much of it. It is actually very usual of cats hating to be held. They love to get petting but not sitting on lap. It is just another myth instituted to human minds by movie industry that cats like to be held. The same with horses and whinnying. In truth they are quite quiet animals but in every movie with horses they whinny almost all the time

Yeah, you're on -20 to start with when you come to the Hive . Can't get much worse than that...

Depends... have you watched Manos the Hands of Fate? I'm pretty sure being forced to watch that movie nonstop for 8 hours, Clock World Orange style, would be worth at least 15 sanity.

Its the whole "see a dog hear a dog" phenomena and basically amounts to little more then bad sound design. Basically, if you see an animal on screen then you have to hear it constantly or else the mind would forget it exists (since people are only consciously aware of like 4 or 5 different things at once (max)).

You remind me of something incredibly important - our perception on the screen is limited (I'm talking about the "see the beholder"-thread in general discussion), whereas real perception uses a multitude of impressions - sound, smell, vibrations of the floor... most people are just to fixated on their sight to notice that. Good adventurers... aren't.

Cheers, LT.

Oooh, busy Hive!

Sadly, today it looks like actual work may have to happen, so I'll probably be a bit quiet.

If they are fully devoted to each other and can afford a brief excursion to Canada, it ain't no thing.

Or Vermont. We were either the first or next to first state to allow same-sex marriages.

Last I knew it still stood.

(Though I have to admit...I don't generally pay attention to most state news...)

I can't get out of video documentary mode!!!!



AAAIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!!

*Strips naked, sets clothes aflame and runs into the bowels of the hive*

And thus we discover Will Ferrell has joined the Hive

I wonder if there are any celebrity ENWorlders that we don't know about? Cos I know several celebrities PLAY D&D - I just wonder if any of them post to these boards.

I had the same thought some time ago. The anonymity of screenname is such that we can't be certain about eachother in any way. For all I know, you could be Vin Diesel, just claiming to be some brit "nobody" (nobody as in publicity) to keep us comfortable. Or I could be the President of Kreplanistan for all you know

I call your bluff sir! Kreplanistan doesn't exist so I do not think you can be its elected representative unless you are some kinda slider and travel with Quinn and Prof. Arturo?!
