We love Skilpadde

Let's hope those cats are friendly towards Piu, or else...

Mean cats get banned if they threaten our resident rodents!

Resident Rodents, like a band name.

I just realised something, Skilpadde ...

I was wondering what the red thing to the left of the turtle's head in your avatar was. At first I thought maybe it was from the red eye mask/ribbon thing. But if you rotate the picture 90 degrees, it kinda looks like a severed turtle's head lying in a pool of blood. Creepy, yeah, but you gotta admit it does look like it a bit.

(NB: I've actually been reading creepypastas, just now – well, re-reading my favourite one. Nothing to do with turtles, I promise.)

Huh... It took me a while before I saw it. Then I did. OMG Noooooooooooo!



[sarcasm]Thanks for making aware of that.[/sarcasm]



It's a bandanna. Trust me. The correct way is the way it is displayed under my name. It's not laying severed on its side in a pool of blood. It's not. (Am I starting to sound like Dr. Seuss here?)

Anyway... now that that's cleared up (and believe me, it is cleared up), I like creepypasta a lot too. The Culling sure is told in a strange way. My all-time favorite is the story called The Other Internet. I don't know how many times I've listened to it.


Enviro and Krabo, I like the term Resident Rodents.

Ooooh ... I'm listening to The Other Internet now. Narrator has an interesting Northern English (or Welsh?) accent. It's a long story, though. Good with biscuits and a cup of tea.

Oh, damn ... guess that clears that one up.

Ah you picked CreepsMcPasta, then? He's one of my fave narrators I didn't know he had a Northern English accent though, I can't recognize it as more than British English (and not Irish or Scottish).

Get it now?

Grrr...

Let me provide a visual help:

The Voynich manuscript is easier to decipher than the past half a dozen posts.

Eh?? There was nothing that was hard to get in those posts

I had to mention the Voynich manuscript in some thread. This one seemed a proper choice.

Haha, okay! Yes, the Voynich manuscript is fascinating. For those of you who haven't heard of it, here's a brief intro:

If they ever find the key to its contents, it should be translated into Finnish. And then you would be holding in your hands something stranger than science.

Has no one unlocked its secrets or deciphered it as yet?

I'm sure Alan Turing would have had a crack at solving the key if given the chance...

^ interesting stuff. Maybe it was written by someone with a huge special interest, and it was their own invented language.

That's three times I've had to log on for 4 or 5 messages today. My patience has run out.

That was so interesting, Krabo. Thanks for that, it made my morning.

And thanks for posting the video, Skilpadde, so that I didn't have to spend time Googling it.

(Side note: my browser's spell checker seems to have an issue with "Googling"; among the suggested words it came up with was "Gosling", with a capital G ... smh.)

I hope the site developers get the login problems fixed for you, Mooms. Mine haven't gotten any better. Feel free to report the issue on the WP Discussion forum: they might do something about it if more people complain.
