Hang on just a dang minute here. I want to hear more of this story. Go on, tell us Lady Blue. I mean, you're the Forum Software Come-To-Life, right? So tell us how you had a fling with the (supposed MR member) Master Wood, won't you? And we want details. All the juicy details, please.

Yes, a steamy romance novel will do. Just post it in all formats please, and possibly in several languages.

WDE.

The squid originally had a cameo appearance in one of the harv and vera sagas written by pshrynk. it was sent in by nekokami, possibly inspired by the squid-meme propagated by cthulhu (who is probably also fictional ), as demonstrated in this thread. it has since taken on a life of its own.

Bring me a glass of cold chocolate milk. Fortified with

calcium and vitamin D to build strong bones for striding

It is, but the contagion vector is not air, or water or even physical contact but forum messages. And it appears that many people have no natural resistance.....

So let's get to the real Nate of the problem.
I thought I'd agreed that Steve Jordan was actually pshrynk's spousal unit (mk III)'s cover identity to check up on his on-line behaviour. (Presumably an actor is hired to provide photos and the occasional mis-direction at meet-ups. That or we are all part of the pshrynk monitoring cover story, and as such delusions of the person who has created the Steve Jordan front.

Quote:
As for Marc, well Adrian says he's real and has something to do with a parking meter. What more proof would you need?
Parking meters need continual feeding with money, right? Sounds more like pshrynk to me.

Anyhow, we all know that ZCDs are created by Marc, that ZCDs could not have happened to have happened by happenstance, and so they must have a creator, who we shall call Marc (as it requires less typing than Adrian, and I shudder to think what an Adrian developed drink would be like), which means Marc must exist. Quid Erat Bibendum.

I'm sure we are, but are also all figments of each others' imagination, running as a cross-hosted meme delusion -- kinda of like a looping virtual machine running on an imaginary computer (known, simply, as "i") which is actually the root of a slight overspend at a ZCD dispensing establishment. Well, either that or we are the product of a duotheism, and our continued existance is at the sufferance of these two -- hence the on-going essential praises and homages to the Hugo and the Lefty.

If find the steam really mucks up the Cybook. Could we have a romance novel with a bit of electricity instead?

Oh crap! That's going to make explaining my drinking binges with Marc hard to explain...

Although it has taken on a life of its own, originally Psockpuppet was fictional. Now it's real, with karma and everything.

And don't forget the squirrels.

Might I suggest, from past experience, that you either provide her worshipfullness with the requesting drink, or retire to a flip-flop proof nuclear bunker and await the all clear sign?

I'm real! I have my own cubicle into which I am chained every morning and from which i am released bbriefly every evening to attend to essential functions. Like dringking tequila and taking LSD. Then I go back and ghost write Harv and Vera Sagas for pshrynk. And he charges me to use the copyright.
