IO fair speech

[Basstrap]

I will not allow crude speech in this thread.
Would that every written word and spoken line be uttered in such a manner as I have been reading of late...oi, such speech is fair to me, like dew on the morning leaf. Yes, it is Tolkiens classic which I have perused.

Laugh not, less you laugh in the manner of the old tongue.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Ho ho ho.

That is the laugh of yore. And the trifecta of excellence.

 

[thrillme]

Of what madness dost thou speaketh?

 

[fah]

Lord, what fools these mortals be!

 

[Bonochick]

Ho ho ho.

That is the laugh of yore. And the trifecta of excellence.

That made me laugh more than it should have.

And no crude speech? What the hell is he talking about???

 

[Basstrap]

ALAS!

the one who calls herself by such uncouth names as BC and bonochick has broken the tryst!
I would have said you were fair to look upon, both fair and said, like a pale winter morning. But now I must say, rather, "BE GONE! cruel and hard lady!"

 

[Angela Harlem]

says he, who speaketh without commas.

 

[Bonochick]

Kirk, if you weren't asexual, I'd offer to have your web-footed babies.

 

[Lemon Meringue]

Tis difficult to speak in such manner. Basstrap, thou art indeed due much praise for undertaking such a worthy cause.

Now I shall cease, lest I use improper words.

 

[Pinball Wizard]

You can't expect him to yield extreme executive power just because some tart in a lake tossed a dagger at 'im. I'm being repressed!

[zoney!]

I thought this thread was going to be about Roosevelt.

suddenly I feel like cujo.

 

[Bonochick]

The Theomeister or Franklin Big Daddy Delano?

 

[Pinball Wizard]

I thought this thread was going to be about Roosevelt.

suddenly I feel like cujo.

insignificant, irritable, and esoteric?

Indeed, welcome to my world of size 1 font.

Did someone just say Theomeister?

 

[zoney!]

e) false
f) All of the above.

I left out d) for extra savings.

 

[IWasBored]

i thought someone said thighmaster

He was a veray parfit gentil man,
And gladly wolde he lerne, and gladly teche,
Our Basstrap.

You fight with the strength of many men, Sir Knight

 

[Screaming Flower]

so, brave knights, if you do doubt your courage or your strength, come no further, for death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth.

 

[Basstrap]

fucketh you all

eth...

 

[fah]

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wiseman knows himself to be a fool

 

[JessicaAnn]

That is entirely too logical
