I just come out of hibernation. YAWN. Hey Sera, when I am 281 I expect I will have a large nose, big ears, tongue hanging out and have a slightly blue tinge to my skin... Apparently as you age, your nose and ears carry on growing!

I think RD is strictly a British thing. I guess half the people who see them pics Beo DO think that the other bloke is you!

Red Dwarf is the best ever and most funny sci-fi tv programme that I have ever watched. I just love the programme. Not so sure about series 7 and 8 though, where other people appear and, I must say, the crew looked already rather old. LOL

It's cold outside
there's no kind of atmosphere
I'm all alone
more or less.... :D

Umm, did one grow to allow you to combat Conflux II.K when it arrives? And if only it were two livers...that would be fantastic...

Edit: Hey, Ameena, when did you go all Lo Masterly anyway? : )

Yeah, I have a baby 'accessory spleen' growing next to the main one! Fairly common apparently, the radiologists were joking that they had finally found my brain! Cheers guys.

I will be bypassing ConfluxIIk for reasons of sanity. Well. I'll might have a peek. I still need to finish my own masterpiece, not worked on it for a while, so many ideas but it is about getting them to synergise (I made that word up)

Ameena became a master when you taught her how to OT post!

Speaking of OT posting, who hates Mophus?

*runs before can get attacked by the SSABNTSSM (Selie + Sera Against Being Nasty To Smug Smiling Mophus*

And woohoo to spring. Remember people, clocks go forward next Sunday!

Mophus is one of my favoured characters. I don't like the ones with small heads.

YAY PAUL! Finally, someone else likes Mophus. There's a shortage of us here. I don't know if Sera likes him or if she just doesn't HATE him like everybody else does. But it's okay, Paul, you can join our club. We'll give you a tshirt and show you the super secret handshake and everything. We might even give you a hat!

Wait, the clocks change next week? Already? You mean, my days are going to get longer? YAY! With insufficient sunlight I kind of feel depressed. But the weather is lovely, I'm walking around in shorts and my windows are open.

I could do with a new hat. This ones a bit prickly.

Mophus is a JOURNEYMAN PRIEST! The only one! He is the best. Can't argue with the facts.

Excuse my total stupidity, but I never knew you did the clock change thing across the pond. I thought it was a strictly British thing started by Scottish farmers with seasonal defective disorder.

Daylight Savings Time, right? If that's what you're talking about, then yes, I believe it's more or less international. Otherwise, things would be even more screwed up than they are.

Just you wait, I might actually design a shirt/hat. Or else I'll draw a retarded picture of silly-looking us wearing shirts, just for you guys! Hohoho!

Okay, my turn to learn something new: what, exactly, does it mean to feel like a prat? Does that mean stupid, foolish, mean, or something entirely different?

If it makes you feel any better, I think there's a small subsection of Nevada or somewhere that doesn't follow Daylight Savings Time. They're confused, and confusing.

I am pretty sure that in Europe we (UK) are the only ones that fiddle with the clocks!

A 'prat' sort of means silly, or stupid. But the official definition, according to Google, is 'the buttocks'. I never knew that either!

Nah, though interestingly, the clocks go back one week later in Canada, and maybe america? So for one week only they are 6 - 10 hours behind us, not 5 - 9.

Umm, I think Google are making stuff up to sell more ...umm...cheese...


Is it true that there are some areas that have like half a dateline? So it would be like half an hour behind its neighbour not a full hour?

Its weird having too much time on your hands. You get bored too quickly. Maybe its a lack of order (ie Chaos!). Maybe our psychologist friends can shed some light on this.

Cereal boxes are amazing. Ee bah gum, when I were a lad, there were many boxless packets of cornflakes in the cupboard, the boxes been turned into guns, lego accessories, WWF belts... Now Sugarpuffs, there's summat I miss, especially them stickers.
