Dumb ThingsWhat are some dumb things you've seen people do, our you yourself. There's this girl, and I'm in eighth grade, who mispelt circle, and false! She spelt them circul and faulse! How stupid can you get!?
|
Lord Storms
|
Banryx by far.
I'm going to give him a history/science quiz!
|
Baron Loki
|
I hate to say it (he likes everyyhing I do) but ... Banryx gets the dishonor.
|
Lord Storms
|
Nice. Maybe we can tar and feather him after my quiz humiliates him.
|
Lord Duality
|
Probly him sadly.
But hey! I'll supply the tar.
|
General Ceyrox
|
Why do you guys hate Banryx so much. And anyways good luck, but he's in advanced every subject. But anyways can't we stay on topic, what are some dumb things you've seen people do?
|
Colonel Banryx

Okay, you can hate me all you want. And I will admit that I have been a little jerky lately. But to start off, Storms, you barely know me. You joined today and I rarely saw you on the old forum. I said that homeschooling wasn't as good as public school, and that public school isn't as good as private school. You're private schooled, so I don't see the problem. Maybe I'm insulting your friends, but we're all entitled to our opinion.
And here's the other thing. The quiz would be pointless, Storms, because I could look up all the answers online without you knowing. I probably wouldn't, but besides that, you may quiz me on what you're studying. You'd probably beat me because I'm not studying that, but I could quiz you on the Constitution (What I'm studying right now) and I'm willing to bet I could really whoop you. So, in all, its very pointless. I guess I'll be nicer from now on, but this is a warining to everybody.
I am very opinionated and stubborn. Almost everyone says I'm the most stubborn person at school, and they're probably right. I talk down on people a lot (Its sort of a habit, a bad one, though) and I can't help it. But I try to act mature, even when its hard. But to sum this incredibly long post up, if I disagree with you, I WILL come off as a jerk. No matter what.
|
Lord Storms
|
Hmm... He's a more worthy opponent than I thought...
And I knew about the quiz problem. I was just betting you would either be honorable or lazy.
EDIT: And the private school people claimed I went to was actually a homeschool group. Just an expensive one with lots of homework. But I pulled out because I needed eye therapy and it was really just preventing me from getting rusty, not really teaching me.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Given my reputation, I would probably be lazy. And the problem with honor is, its kinda irrelevant. I would keep the honor from you guys if I never told you I cheated, and I would have more honor anyways than if I had taken the honest way because I would seem less stupid. Quite a conundrum.
|
Lord Duality
|
That actually kind of makes sense for once.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Yup. It'll do that from time to time.
|
Lord Storms
|
It makes sense, but why couldn't you just be honorable to satisfy your conscience?
|
Lord Duality
|
Well (correct me if I'm wrong.) But you're saying that if we don't know you haven't been honorable then you will be honorable in our eyes. You also say that since we have no way of prooving you're dishonesty that if you were to look smart you would look more honest.
Please, correct me if I'm wrong.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
You're sorta right, Freeze, but now I'm confused.
And Storms, who says I have a consciense? Mwahahahahahahahahaahahahah!
I probably would do the honorable thing, for the record. And the honorable thing is cheating. Not really.
|
Lord Duality
|
You were confusing. I probably just made it more confusing.
|
Lord Storms
|
I just remembered that they don't teach philosophy or theology in the public schools...
That's the argument I'm making. Many homeschoolers, like myself, study extra for fun. It's us that thrive in this envirement, and outsmart by a longshot 99% of public school kids.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Yeah, (And not to get into an argument here) but parents or tutors that teach in homeschooling programs can't get the experience and training all the teachers at school get.
|
Lord Duality
|
I don't like over studying but thats just me. You can call me lazy but it's just me. I reall like reading classics though. I love analyzing them. Thats probably all I got to support you Cookies.
|
Lord Storms
|
I must say, you'd be surprised (at the homeschool group I was in, some people there had been teaching actual classes for over a decade...)
And classics ARE good. I learn quite a bit from them. (Caesar's book, The Conquest of Gaul, in paticular).
|
Colonel Banryx
|
I think I learn mostly from books. I can't fall asleep without reading a book, which is why my vocablury is so sophisticated at times. I hate having to dumb it down it school though, if I talked all smart, people would judge me. A bad thing about public school, peer pressure and being judged. Sigh.
|
Lord Duality
|
Wow..... thats pretty nice.
I'm reading Catcher in the Rye right now. I've read some other good ones (Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll, Animal Farm.)
|
Lord Storms
|
Dr. Jekyll was good. Haven't read the others...
Have you read the House of Seven Gables?
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Two books I recommend. There not famous or anything, but they were really good. The first, House of Power and its sequel, Rivers of Fire. Both are great books. And luckily, so far I've resisted the Twilight phase. But I might give in next week, I have no book to read currently.[/I]
|
Lord Duality
|
Animal Farm was awesome!
Frankenstein was nice.
And I've never heard of Seven Gables.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Fine, ignore my post! I'm gonna go cry and eat a tub of vanilla ice cream with a shovel and gain back those 400 lbs. I lost a few minutes ago.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaa!
|
Lord Storms
|
I refuse to read Twilight... EVER.
The House of Seven Gables is by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Same guy who wrote the Scarlet Letter. He was Herman Mellville (boring person)'s best friend.

Hard... too... type... while scarfing down vanilla... keyboard... getting... all... sticky.
All my girlfriends, and yes, two of my other friends, are obsessed with twilight and want me to read it. I wouldn't be that surprised if that's what Danica's giving me tommorrow at school.

Yeah. My gf (seems weird for me to be saying that due to my rep on another forum) got mad at me for stating that vamps should be exterminated. Ah well. Just my taste.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Whose vamps? Actually, don't bother answering that, I've got to go.
|
Baron Loki
|
Die, Vampires! My name is Steve Leonard, Vampire Hunter!
|
Lord Storms

*Chokes to death trying to surpress laughter*

Have you read those books?

Well sorry! I've been a bit busy.
|
Lord Storms
|
Haven't read books with vamps at all. I don't like them...
|
Baron Loki

Neither do I.

Dread Abyss

What have I been missing? *shakes fist*
I like vampires, they're pretty cool in my opinion. But I often see bad vampires on TV or, in Twilight's case, movies. You know that it's a bad vampire if he goes around in daylight, can see himself in a mirror, and doesn't drink blood but still manages to suck! Enjoy the books, Banryx.
Banryx isn't stupid, he just has a differed opinion. I voted for myself, because I know how smart I am, but not how smart the people here are. I could vote for Bane, but I don't know how smart he is in real life. Plus I often find myself pondering the spirits of a fantasy...
Dumb thing I've seen someone do... in 4th Grade one of the kids got all of the multiplication questions wrong on a simple test, every week. Or recently I misspelled rape.
|
Baron Loki
|
Actually, I changed my mind after reading a few of Bane's posts.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Why are there four votes for Gort?
|
Baron Loki
|
Dunno, Bane probably had something to do with it.
|
Lord Storms
|
I was just mad at Banryx for being rude to my friends.
In reality, I don't think any of us are really that dumb.
EDIT: Although I can't spell "us."
|
Baron Loki
|
Yes, we are all pretty smart. Even though SOME OF YOU (hint hint, Bane) use improper grammar.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Excellent. So what dumb things have you ever done?
I once thought flapping my hands was cool. I also didn't know what gay meant...
|
Lord Storms
|
Umm... I've trusted Bane.
Seriously, I have forgotten the name of a Dinosaur before. And to someone who's spent years memorizing them, that was kinda embarrassing...
|
Dread Abyss
|
Bane's not trustworthy?
Explain.
|
Baron Loki
|
Go to the 'Jobs, Anyone?' thread.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Oh, Bane keeps on talking about a mistletoe. Hey, I saw something dumb!
|
Lord Storms
|
What?
And the miseltoe has to do with trying to bother me. If he EVER mentions "Bob and Cookies" I will give him to Banryx and Freeze with "Kill Me" written on him.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Who's Bob?
Darn, I was hoping that mistletoe thing was going somewhere...
|
Lord Storms
|
Luckily (for someone as insane as me) it didn't.
And Bob is a comic character. However, Bane made an analogy using that character to taunt me. If he EVER mentions it, I will do worse than just give him to Banryx.
|
Dread Abyss
|
He's Larry, The Emo Leprechaun!Bob, huh. Reminds me of L.T.E.L. a character I made that I slyly mention in some of my posts. Insane as ye? That hath reminded me of a dumb thing I haveth seen. One of the kids in a homeschooling class I go to thinks I'm a robot.
Worse than Banryx... can I have him?
|
Lord Storms
|
Sure.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Domos Arigato, Mr. Stormato!Wait a second... I have to wait until he says whatever you don't want him to say in order for me to get him... Darn it, now I'll never get a second splein!
|
Lord Storms
|
He probably will at some point...
Just don't take his liver. He claims that it is capable of devouring anything.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Good for me, bad for you... 709...
Anything, eh? I dare Bane to eat himself!
|
Lord Storms
|
What about 709?
|
Dread Abyss
|
It came to my mind for some reason. Weird... dumb.
|
Lord Storms
|
Weird coincidence, actually. That's part of the username of the guy who makes the comics I mentioned.
|
Dread Abyss
|
I thought you made the comics. Username, so that means he's from some other forum, what is it?
|
Lord Storms
|
No, I didn't make the comics.
The forum is BZPower.com.
|
Dread Abyss
|
I know Bane likes bionicles, but do you as well?
|
Lord Storms
|
More than he does.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Huh, cool. Are you member on that website?
|
Colonel Banryx
|
Wait, what'd I miss? Who likes Bionicles now?
|
Dread Abyss
|
Bane and Storms both do, but Storms does more.
|
Colonel Banryx
|
How in depth are we talking about? Bzpower? Biosector? Or newb or what?
|
Dread Abyss
|
*shrugs* Ask him yourself.
|
Lord Duality
|
Bionicles rocked!
But it all went down hill when they left Mata-Nui.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Did you know he's a giant, possesed robot?
|
Colonel Banryx
|
I think its still great. And Bara Magna's awesome. But let's not get into a discussion here.
|
General Ceyrox

Storms, do you have a BZP account. I do, it's Ceyrox. If you do add me.
|

Cool. I'm Kaitan.

Ah, beware the wrath of Lexaeus.
Beware!
|

my username is biofanatic, for a while I was semi famous! thank you ciox!
|
Colonel Banryx
|
I am Lexaeus, for now.
|
Dread Abyss
|
I'll tell you my name after I change it. Do you MOC?
A link to my Brickshelf page.
|
Lord Storms
|
I do, but only rarely. Bane does excessively. He produces at least one new MOC every week.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Dang. It usually takes me more than a week to finish a moc.
|
Lord Duality
|
MOC?
|
Dread Abyss
|
Made Of Coolness, MOC.
|
Lord Bane
|
Ciox was a moc I made, that was huge. I was temporaraly fomous. I love mocing, its my hobby. :BLEH!: :BLEH!: ciox kills you!!!
|
Dread Abyss
|
I dislike the mask, but other than that he's really good.
I was famous as well once, I was the first person to show pictures of the Phantoka when they came out.
|
Lord Bane
|
OMFG!!! THATS HOW I KNEW YOU!!!
|
Dread Abyss
|
What do you mean?
|
Lord Bane
|
idk I just wanted to say that.
|
Dread Abyss
|
Huh, quite misleading...
Are you sure?
|
Lord Bane
|
yes, and no offense, but I dont like you photo shoot style. check this
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/biofanatic1928/MOC/ciox.jpg
|
General Ceyrox
|
Bane you only have 35 posts!?
Ciox is pretty cool, but I really like your Skakdi custom. Ciox's arm armor isn't my favorite though.
My favorite MOC of mine is the Botica Monkey, I haven't posted it yet, but I will soon.
Also, storms and bane, how bigs your collection. Me and Banryx have a huge one. We have every one except the Manas, Roodaka, Lessovikk, Hahli, Hewkii, and Kopeke from 2003. I think that's it. I could be wrong.
|
Lord Bane
|
dang... to tell you the truth, I hate the real sets. theres so many things wrong with them. I only keep sets alive for a day or 2, and then, CUSTOM BABY!! and thnx, the skakdi are fun to make. I have an ice dragon in the making, I just need wings...
|
Dread Abyss
|
I revamp most of the sets when I get them, I find revamping to be easier than mocing.
Yeah, I don't like the style I used to take those photos either.
|
Lord Bane
|
I like mocing because its one of the only things I'm good at. that, and poetry
|
Lord Storms
|
My collection isn't that big. However, I do have quite a few sets.
Plan to nab a bunch of Glatorian soon. Next year looks really promising...
AND THERE'S GONNA BE A MATA NUI SET!!!
|
Baron Loki

POETRY?!?!?!?
|
Lord Bane
|
Yah... Like:
Forever,
Immortality, Acursed Blessing.
to Die in Life is gone.
Life in Death,
Death in Life,
I am not alive,
I am forever.
|
Baron Loki
|
That's... AWSOME!
|
Lord Storms
|
He isn't half bad at poetry, actually.
|
Lord Bane
|
ty, and thats not my best, either.
|
Dread Abyss
|
That was rather impressive, Bane.
To Storms~ Which Glatorian? I got Strakk, Vorox, Gresh, Tuma, Metus, and Raanu. But I have to wait 'til Christmas.
|
General Ceyrox
|
Me and Banryx have a pretty big collection. I definately find fault with most sets too. I just can't find it in me to take sets apart though. All of them are together right now. Occasionally I'll buy a second of a set, but I still don't have many MOC pieces.
Also I think we should continue discussion of this in a Bionicle topic. I'll make one.
|
Lord Storms
|
Yay!
