I think this is on topic as there are certainly people with staffs here. Pretty sure they're rattan. I'm one of the ones in red off to the right, but I was not using a staff, my boffer weapons were arrows.

NERD OUT WITH NO FEAR LIKE MEEEEEEE, lol very, very old pic

Oh, btw, someone on the boards is pretty convinced I'm you. And I'm not being meme-y. Although this reminds me of what I said the other day. This is the character I referenced:

Still I agree with him 😄

Probably. I really like the chocolate covered kind, but they're kind of expensive to have around all the time.

Yeah. This wouldn't have been in something like "Complete Works of," as it was a random entry in a journal magazine at the time.

Or forget what you read. "Read" is a funny word - a verb, a noun, past and present tense.

You're seriously addicted to those, aren't you...

Interesting to know about yourself! That is a lot. Get sick once and your entire lifestyle has changed. I'm constantly reminded how lucky I was, assuming there's nothing unseen wrong. My two cousins have similar complication from getting it, both the liver. WE ALWAYS CRAVE THE THINGS WE CAN'T HAVE!!! 😫

it's...just the word cane but formated in accordance to the 20th year outlined in the journal entry above. My apologies.

Hah, thankfully this was one of his satirical pieces.

::shakes her cane at you:: Or...::kane::

Think of how I felt typing that out. I came across it in a magazine with the inability to copy/paste it.

from a letter written to The Economist mid 1800's. (with a mid-atlantic i.e. british-american accent). "In Year 1 that useless letter c would be dropped to be replased either by k or s, and likewise x would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which c would be retained would be the ch formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform w spelling, so that which and one would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish y, replasing it with i, and Iear 4 might fiks the g/j anomali wonse and for all. Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6 to 12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants. Bai Lear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez c, y, and x - bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez --tu riplais ch, sh, and th ridpektivli. Fainali, xen, aafte sam 20 iers ov orxogrefkl riform, wi wud hev a lojikl, kohirnt speling in ius xrewawt se Ingliy-spiking werld." ~ Mark Twain. A plan for the improvement of the English language.

And now...

Happy New Year to everyone, btw.

Oh fuck I hate you, damn it!
