zornwil Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I just saved this thread from being on page 2. You may all breathe a sigh of relief. For now. Hey wait - I just realized now Ben is FORCING us to post! This is like some Kafkaesque sentence! Next he'll start a flame war...and ban someone for not joining in! He's gone mad with power!

archermoo Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER As for hot caffienated beverages, my preferance is a nice large Cambric. Which for those who do not know (including it seems most Starbucks barristas) is Earl Grey tea and steamed milk. I prefer a mix of 1/3 tea to 2/3 milk. On the few occasions that I DO drink coffee based drinks, it is usually a Caramel Macchiato. Mmmmm.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zornwil Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER EGL, or Elogant Gothic Lolita, is a fashion trend that is growing popular in Germany, Japan, and in some spots in the United States. It is exactly what it sounds like, a combination of the Gothic and Lolita look but from what I have seen, is more focused on the Gothic aspect. In fact, EGL hardly is very L at all. It looks more like a Ren style of dress but Gothic to make it more, acceptable in public. If that makes any sense. This style is very popular and Anime Conventions for some reason and I have seen it at a couple of Ren Faires but in lower numbers. Example provided for education purposes. Very interesting. I didn't like this particular take on it but I can definitely imagine a good erotic combo coming out of this approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zornwil Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I'm utterly addicted to caffeine. I've got one of those 4-cup coffee makers on my desk at work and I drink a full pot every morning. I'm also a b!tch for Starbucks' white chocolate mochas. I may have to start turning tricks to continue affording them, though. -AA I do like white chocolate mochas, but I found Starbucks' too harsh, I prefer Torrefazione (yes, I know, Starbucks bought them not long ago - still a different blend, at least last I knew).

Rachel Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I could, but then I'd lose the fear that I've insilled in your hearts to keep posting to this thread. Fear? I was wondering what effect you were trying for. I figured the amusement I felt wasn't it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say that I have, and I hope I can say that on my death bed. And considering your past history of tolerance for some pretty horrid behavior, I figured you were going more for amusement than anything else.

I don't go to bars at all (allergic to cig smoke) and don't generally have more than a single drink at a resturant. I do most of the little drinking I do at parties at my/friends houses and at SCA events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zornwil Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER So not just C&W, but AMATURE C&W?!?!?! Depends a little. If it's more genuine/truly amateur without tremendous commercial stress, there might be some good roots country music. I think the biggest problem for C&W has been the steady homogenization that set in from its earliest pop successes in the late 1940s (an unintended result by all means of Hank Williams' success and inclusion of pop "sounds") and accelerated rapidly in the 60s through 90s.

I don't think that there is anything wrong with C&W, I just don't like it. Up to and including Hank Williams. It very well may be tea, but it isn't my cuppa...

Well Super Squirrel, I think those owlets are thinking as follows: #1 "Hey I finally made it to the perch. Why is the outside so blue?" #2 "This corner here is very interesting. I can see... a corner." #3 "What's that up there. That looks interesting." #4 "ARGH! I have no face." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
