    Xbox live Gamertags

    There's a whole lot of people who posted earlier in this thread whose gamertags are now unreadable, because the forum you used to create images has gone away. Or something. Anyway, they are just placeholder links instead of links with words. You might like to go back and edit your posts :).

    Musical Instruments. What Do You Own?

    I own and can theoretically play the cello, but in practice I haven't for years because I have a bad back, and the posture required for the cello isn't compatible with my back :(. I also own an electric bass guitar, but I haven't learned how to play it yet due to THINGS and STUFF taking up all...

    How Often Do You Change Your Sheets?

    I have really bad allergies, so we change the sheets every 2 weeks, and the pillowcases every week. We also wash the blankets and duvets every couple of months. If I had a "normal" bed, I'd need to do them more often, but I have a latex bed which dust mites can't live in. Now, how often do you...

    Gender and Sexual Identity

    Heh. I've been wanting to start a topic like this here for ages, but never got around to it. Last year, I made the mistake of mentioning how many bisexuals were on 'Charms at BiCon, in a fairly casual conversation, and then got pounced on by an academic who wanted to write a paper about it...

    Christmas Special 2011

    So where's the rest of it, then? I'm sure Christmas has happened by now :P Although, I suppose, if you go by the Orthodox Church calendar, it won't be until January 6th :D

    Is Love Really Worth It?

    Holy crap. See, I started off thinking I'd get to the end then post a sarky comment along the lines of "Is this an autobiography, El?". And then I got to the bit where he's obviously been beaten up. What? :O Now I need you to write the next chapter, because I'm desperate to know why Justin is...

    The Old Republic

    Hi, I'm on my phone so this is going to be short. Basically: I like the story, but I think it has some tense and pronoun-fail. It seems confused about whether it's in present or past tense, and whether it's first- or third-person. Also, the part about not being human would be better off higher...

    The Good, The Bad, and the Implausible: What Would You Add?

    Re: The Good, The Bad, and the Implausible: What Would You A I think this is brilliant. That is all :P.

    Pictures, please ~

    I'm loling at the triple post from Yoshimitsu. Who else would ever do that? ;) Also, your boyfriend is still adorable. Where is there a rollercoaster with a Sonic statue in front? Also, I always think Secad is a boy until I see pictures of her. Don't know why. Maybe you write like a boy? Or...

    Upcoming Dream World Expansion

    NEW FURNITURE!! ;) Sad though this may be, I actually have every item in the existing catalogue except for the window with curtains which wouldn't look right in a log cabin. I'm ever so annoyed that we haven't got any plushies or the Pokemon Cafe items yet. So it sounds awesome that finally...

    Identity Problem

    I'm not sure what you're referring to when you say "mental illness isn't welcome here". There are plenty of members with various interesting conditions. I'm on the staff, and I've been on psych meds for longer than some of the members here have even been alive. (Yes, I'm old). People with...

    Zombies

    What is a "Uint", anyway? Zombies based on humans are totally fake, but non-human zombies exist. For example, look at the real-life creature that Parasect is based on.

    The Birthday Thread

    Thanks, all. We had posh afternoon tea at a London hotel, went for a walk in the park, then went to the Trocadero and played arcade games for a couple of hours ;). And it DIDN'T RAIN! Which is impressive, since at this time of year, the UK has days of utterly lousy weather - Monday was hideous...

    The Smug World Order Badfic Contest!

    I'm wondering if we should ban the use of horrible formatting from the contest, since it makes looking n00bish far too easy. Not least of all that it makes some of the fics literally unreadable ;). Carmen - that's brilliantly awful. And Linkachu!! All of these "stories" are terrible, but I'm...

    The Smug World Order Badfic Contest!

    What's the deal with that was very hard to catch but she caught him because he was injured and she helped him so he decided to join her? I'll have you know that's over 20 words in a row spelled correctly!

    Competitive Sports-- a question for opinions

    Of course the League is right - you can't pick and choose which rules to follow. Either you enforce the rules equally for all teams, or not. However, there are clearly solutions which would have been less painful for all concerned. Firstly, why was the rogue player only discovered at the end...

    The Chatlog Topic!

    In which Alex ponders some holes in the Pokemon universe: [01] <DoctorOak> incidentally [01] <DoctorOak> since I just had to run up a tower of dead Pokemon [01] <DoctorOak> again [01] <DoctorOak> I wondered [01] <DoctorOak> if every region has a place to bury their dead Pokemon [01] <DoctorOak>...
