I love the 'oog' avatar you made.

And this thread is now dead. It's official. Defunct. Closed. Ceased to be. Is no more. Poor thread, to be dead, like it is. Too, too bad. :skull:

You gone and undeaded it, Proff!!

And it was quietly sinking slowly down the board, like the setting sun, moving inexorably towards its fate; darkness and annihiliation. 8O

Nah, give it a week and I would've brought it back from the depths. It can't die! It's not really undead... More the case, it's on some pretty hefty life support, and I've got a whole load of syringes of adrenaine.

i must admit it might be difficult to stop this thread,
but did abandon 'the last the post' (it was so crowdy in the end)

(but then again i always keep an eye on it anyway, if no one would post any longer,
i'm sure i'd resurrect it)

here i really feel at home, like it is our thread, i might as well start talking to myself without being bothered :roll:

your avatar is strange to me VC, i don't know in what way, is it an intimidating, or inviting, or contemplating look, it's got an akward 'real' look. i always have a strange effect with focused photographs but seeing this one more often is strange. (don't bother, it's just me)

Starr did you never watch tv as a child? :lol: It's Sigmund Ooze from Sigmund & the Sea Monsters. It was a 70's kid's show about Sigmund who refused to be mean to humans so he was kicked out of his house and discovered living on the beach by two kids. They hid him in their clubhouse and he was always sneaking out causing them grief. When I was 3 I was terrified of Sigmund and also his mother called Sweet Momma and would hide behind the furniture when the show came on.

I didn't watch much TV as a kid. I was semi-feral, lol, and spent most of my time outside. Not that there was much on British telly for kids in those days, the 60's, early 70's. We didn't have fun things like Sigmund Ooze and the Sea Monsters.
The only monster-y programme I can remember was early Dr Who, but the monsters were a bit 'cardboard and sellotape' and the scenery used to wobble :lol: Not that I saw many of them because I too would hide behind the sofa when they came on. This was one of the most scary :-

The monster of Peladon. Eye eye. :lol: You can tell his cloak is someone's old curtains though can't you? :)

That Peladon fella is really scary. I cringed when I saw him. Though I have been accused of being a lightweight anyway. Yes his cape looks like kitchen curtains. Maybe they were on a tight budget? Sigmund was like that too. It was mostly a felt costume and the sea monsters sort of shuffled when they walked. When he stood still you could see movement flopping around inside the costume and he had one tooth that flopped when he was trying to be scary. One of my 20 yr old friends thinks its totally ret*d, but at the time all of the Kroft studio kids shows like Sigmund were quite popular.

PS: I think I'm going to have to change my avatar again. Lemon will probably kill me. I wonder why Thyme hasn't posted lately? Did I offend Thyme about the fruit on the head joke? I was just kidding. I like the Tucan. I will leave a bowl of Fruit Loops on the door step as a token of friendship.

They are Fruit Loops? That's something else we don't have over here. Colourful aren't they 8O

Good Morning Threadkillers International. :D

(Lemon, I read Beckett's 'Company'...wow, it has blown me away. If Beckett isn't an Aspie then he has done an incredible thing, to write like an Aspie thinks.)

yeah, it had the same effect on me ...

also i realised that our way of reasoning is quite complex to other people cause no one in my class understood a thing of the book (agreed it were all young girls/boys, but then again it was their third year of literature). people have (often) said of me also that my thoughts are impossible to follow,
that's what i like about wrongplanet, i never encountered such a remark, nor did anyone mention that i'm strange, i feel so very normal here.
(like i once said and Inventor reminded me of that "I once was a special person, now I'm just a normal Aspie")

don't know about Beckett, but it is possible that he had Asperger's himself of course, maybe we should read more of him, following our prof 'the Malloy trilogy' is very interesting too.
