Oh, for some reason I thought the new frame had been posted already.

I have finally returned from Leftpondia! Had a most enjoyable meeting and dinner with lmjb. Thanks for being willing to meet with a large furry (and sadly rather boring) OTTer :) All caught up again.. --Rakhal Hmm, I wonder who the boring OTTer is you're talking about? I only remember meeting a tal...

Congratulations! Of what, specifically, are you a Master? (I suppose I should ask what specifically your educational institution considers you a Master of, since obviously you are a Master of many things, like hotdogs, the mrobdex, <computery stuff>. . . I really enjoyed the haiku page, and Addams, ...

lmjb1964

I'm sitting by a fire, looking out at the sea (big), and actoss from me is a real live OTTer! Rakhal and I have finally managed to meet up here in beautiful Santa Cruz. So much fun to meet OTTers!

Your MolpyUp score--
More than ten times my high score.
Guess I should play more.

Hm, Addams' haiku
Seems to be missing two lines,
The first and the last.

Wiki warrior!
Your work on the wiki site

I so totally agree with GLR re: todip's Othercomic. ED, I have to remember that game. I know just the group of people to play it with. In my pants. Thanks for the dem*starding, GnomeAnne! Realized I should spoiler this since GnomeAnne spoilered the demustarding. I don't see the person withe the ...

YES!! Exactly this. I use to wonder what Turkish delight was, and think about how wonderful it must be. Then I tried some, and I was like, meh. So disappointing.

I just realised it's 12 dips past the beginning of when I generally change my avatar for the madness. There wasn't even a announcement saying we weren't having one this yip. Oh, right, I hadn't even thought about the fact that it was that time of yip. I guess the mods have decided not to do it anym...

Thanks, b! I found them as well. Unfortunately, I couldn't get them to work. I installed Python, and it said that I installed pygame as well, but then it said it couldn't find pygame, or something. Curse my lack of <computery stuff> knowledge! This may make it a bit simpler: I compiled it into an a...

I'll have you know that I've watched EVERY goatball game played in my home town for the last 10 years!

No idea what Blitzf...

lmjb1964

I vote for Cuegoat. Goatball sounds more like some weird farmland sport Hopefully one where the goats are kicking the ball, not where they're being used as a ball. :cry: Unlike Cueball, the poor goat did not survive the attack. I guess they were out of panther salve, though fortunately she did have...

Just had a slightly RELATED advising appointment. The student I just saw pointed at the xkcd comic I have in my office ("Two Years") and said, "I love xkcd!" I probably should have said, "The River is small!", but instead we talked about how awesomeful xkcd. I mentioned...

Hi, karhell! You're not late, the Timeiversary celebration is still going on.

lmjb1964

The Sea is Big! I had no idea it was BlitzGirl. In retrospect, it should have been obvious. Not only was there poetry, but, as balthasar pointed, out, graphics skills were needed for the sand-drawing photo at least. B, did you suspect it was BG? ETA: Ah,, I guess not. :) At any rate, it was an aweso...

A most molpish Timiversary to all! I haven't raed all of the recent posts yet, but I see people are coming up from the basement, and I see also there's been a Reveal. Hi, BlitzGirl! Thank you for The Advent! And I meant to comment before on Taixzo''s hint of something coming. Five yips on, and the O...

I can't believe it. Time does fly!

So, following decree, I wish you a happy 3/18, without using mrob’s utility to find out a snappy formula for 3.18. Or happy 3/19 to those of us in New Zealand, always one step ahead. Hiya, mikrit! I'll take the happy 3/19, since that was my birthdip. :) Wife showed me a video about spring in Sweden...

Examine box content http://1190.bicyclesonthemoon.info/bsta/bsta-000204.png Some cassettes. Don't let Chester see these. Don't eat them! Wait, who's Chester? I thought I knew, but then I realized it was an OtherOtherComic that I was blitzing. I listened to Yappo's wingish and steakish music. Bravo!...

When I followed the Results link that mrob posted, I noticed that none of The Advent's posts have a subject line. That's why they don't show up under Time, but shouldn't they still show up under "Search User's Posts"? That link only shows 5 posts, all in other threads. Haven't had the Tim ...

New OtherComic fixed: http://forums.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=56411&mode=view RSIR 1962.png I saw this and got all excited because I thought it was the original, and I thought GLR had included the Zanclean part. :) Steakish OTTIfication, and treeish to see you, No Mouse. And wow! A timey wi...

I think it's particularly OTTsome that the poems speak not only to the main theme, but also reference other things within Time. For example, this latest poem is primarily "about" Megan saying "bye." to the sandcastle in frame m0881, but there are also references to birds (m1276,...

Addams was going to be spiders. She just was. I understood that reference! For the ininitiated: http://botnik.org/content/harry-potter.html (we need to make something like this for the OTC and OTT) I didn't understand. Thanks for posting. I do love Lucas the Spider. A friend who's always trying to ...

I want to read through balthapuzzler's clues about colors and see what he's getting at (and mrob's responses to see what he knows), but it will have to wait (for it) until after I listen to Mahler iv a few times.

Thanks, Zooman, for always keeping us on track with the OtherComics. I forget to check otherwise. (And thanks to those who fill in when Zooman is called to the Outside.) And mrob, I'm so glad you posted to the ottercon redundabike video, I had forgotten about that. I am definitely glad the dead rat ...

Oh and my brothers got interested .. I first read that as, "My brothers and I got arrested..." :shock: Awesomeful otty, Jose! Indeed, you should post more, as should I. I have to deal with a deal rat under the house and a dead stove in the kitchen. Plus I just got called to play Mahler 4 ...

For anyone interested in space, the Falcon Havy is scheduled to launch this Tuesday, barring unforseen delays. It will be the most powerful rocket launched since the Saturn V!

No decree for us?

Unless the decree is to mention something you did that had unintended consequences.

That's just a link to his profile... Huh. Must have copied the wrong link at the top of the post. Thanks for catching that. I noticed it, but figured I was just missing something. :) HummingBirds are so cute. Because, they are little. If a Big Bird acted like that... Well...Geese and Cassowary do. ...

OK, balthawiz, I read through your whole post about how you figured things out. I really appreciate you supplied all of that information. Some of it sort of mostly made sense. But I definitely did not have an "a-ha!" moment. It still mostly made my brain hurt. :) And I hoped that I wrote ...

Thanks for posting that about the weather in Europe, Addams. I hadn't heard about that. I hope all OTTers are safe. :( I thought I would probably not make such a nice thing as GLR did.[b] Instead I would just build it from some XORs Qu'est-ce que c'est? (Must be time to review my French--I had to lo...

lmjb1964

Wow, there's a lot of information in that post, b. I think I'd like to read it, and then go back and blitz the various things, and see how everything fits together.

Of course, I'm behind on bsta so I'm really lost right now.

lmjb1964

Hi, edo! Steakish ottification!

A molpish birthdip to ED. That sounds like an awesomeful game.
