pshrynk, and $300 for the laddy at the door, next to the fish, 2 hours since before his 47th post, to corrupt the squirrel, with a llama.

But honestly, I might have to say . . .

ALL of you, MobileReading, here, all the time, because you're addicted, with the blue ones, zaney carters, gibbons and DixieGal's new travel tank on wheels (that's how.)

(But I was never here.)

pshrynk was the first to notice something surprising :

Should that be a choice in the poll?

so who do you think she is ?

(wait for the poll !)

There's a 'serious lurker' option, but not a 'silly lurker' one!!

no worries, i'll just add that on.

i presume you would have voted for it, so i'll count 2 to start with.

it does seem like the obvious answer, now that you mention it.

Lady Blue · 03-07-2009, 02:22 PM

Is this multiple choice?

I want to be prepared if it's decided I'm a split personality.

Are the judge's decisions final?

Can I appeal in case the verdit is the squid thingy? I don't want to be the squid thingy ! ! !

always ! except in the case they change their minds (psst. i recommend chocolate. it's very persuasive. or just ask ravenne for some tips.)

you should be careful what you say, you might offend the squid (unless this is just a cunning ruse to divert attention from your true identity, which would be just like a squid... that's what the ink is for...), and although he's non verbal, he's deeply sensitive and emotive.

plus, that ink is *really* hard to get out.

That's my point. THE SQUID already IS, and I don't want to transgress on his turf or step on his tentacles so to speak. I'm not that kind of blue. I'll just go sit in the corner until I'm summoned, Queen Z. I'll be quiet now.

okay, okay, i give up, you're not the squid !!! plenty of other options to choose from.

I went with ninja squirrels, obviously

If she had a bebook I would say Slite´s back. But it´s two Sonys...

That implies there's another option missing: a Sony fan...

Ok, now I want ice cream...

After a lot of deliberation and talks with my cat (who demands to set on my mouse) and even more cuddling of said cat, I came to the conclusion that the MR software has absorbed so much intelligence (or rather what it thinks is intelligence, I'm not sure I'd agree on its definition, but that's a bit beside the point) that it has come to life.

I'm deeply intrigued by and also a little scared of this event. Is this the end of civilization as we know it? Will the software now turn on the rest of the world and try to merge with other fora? Or will it be satisfied with just the fact that it finally managed to come alive?

I think only time will tell, and let us hope for the best!

Lady Blue already admits to being next to the fish and the fish we already know is part of the greater Planethead empire (North American Division) so perhaps she is a friend of Taylor's and that would also account for the short time as a member with a long reach for the history of the Lounge. (Then again, "Lady Blue" was a character in Harry Chapin's song, Taxi or Billy Holiday's nickname.)
