Backwards Thread

[PhantasyStarOnline]

Okay, this is a game where everything goes backwards. Therefore, I'll end the thread:

Okay. That's it. I'm getting a moderator over here to close this.

[Duphrates]

"But Aga, you've got to admit that Ruddles is not as good as Budweiser."

[Qaqaq]

Hey, you can't treat me that way!

Man, this used to be such a good thread, too.

[Sparticus]

That's it, Qaqaq! I've had enough of you! I'm getting the mod to ban you!

[Qaqaq]

I don't want to hear ONE MORE WORD about beer! You people have totally gone off topic! If I were the mod, I'd close the thread the next time someone mentions it!

[One Skunk Todd]

Mmmmmm.... Beeeeeeeeeeeer...

[PhantasyStarOnline]

I just love beer.

[Sparticus]

I wonder what reaction I would provoke if I were to bring up the subject of "beer" to this thread again.

[Qaqaq]

Rwanda?

[The Cruciverbalist]

Well, obviously. I mean, an electromagnetic crayfish? Sheesh.

But back to the trivia quiz.

What nation's flag features a backwards "R" on it?

[PhantasyStarOnline]

Of course! Where else could I get that? England?

[cuban smoker]

You can't use a crayfish to start a computer!

[Faeriefire]

No, that's not right. You have to jump up not down!

So, last night I was drunker than an Aga and I wanted to check my e-mail. I don't even remember why, but I had this crayfish in my hand and I was using it to push the power button. Damned thing wouldn't work.

[PhantasyStarOnline]

...so then I jumped off the board and down into the pit. I swear, it didn't work. Qaqaq lied to me about that...

[The Cruciverbalist]

You're thinking of vichysoisse, not gazpacho. But go on, this story's getting good.

[PhantasyStarOnline]

Qaqaq told me I could find some sort of..."thing" in a pit. Green. I think he called it a gazpacho. It was bouncy. He set up a board so I would bounce off of it.

[The Cruciverbalist]

About twelve, I think.

Say, PSO, what's that stain on your shirt?

[Faeriefire]

Well, only if you have to.

Anyway, onto my story . . .
And then the bartender tells me this joke. You know, the one about the guy with the harem. I don't quite remember the joke or the punchline, but there was something about the number of days he'd been 'at it'. Hey, CV, do you remember what it was exactly?

[Lepton]

If I told you once, I've you a million time, no sauerkraut until you eat your jelly beans!

I'm feeling rather frisky. Anyone have a leg I can borrow?

[Duphrates]

But the funny thing was, she had hidden the green jelly beans, down her sock.So I said to him "Lepton, dear chum, remember what the doctor said 'You are rationed to say the word 'told' only once in a sentence', you know what happens when you forget." and then Lepton said, well you tell them Leppy, it's your story anyway

[PhantasyStarOnline]

Hmmm. Lepers? What happened next, Duphrates?

Anyone else need a drink, besides Aga who's had way too many?

[PhantasyStarOnline]

::wakes up from his nap::

::yawns::

Okay. Now what?

[Tahnan]

You know, it's been so long since I checked this thread, I thought I'd see if anything new had happened here.

And the answer is: no. No, it hasn't; it's still about beer.

Well, I'll check in again in a few weeks, if someone hasn't asked a moderator to just shut the thing down before then.

[pikachamp]

bah, i'm too young to drink beer

[Qaqaq]

And that answer finishes the category! Well done.

[PhantasyStarOnline]

::snore::

Mffnumfriggenfrackengardthem....

ZZZZZZ...

[pikachamp]

The answer is "PhantasyStarOnline go to sleep"

[PhantasyStarOnline]

Pikachamp, here's the last question:

What's your favorite phrase?

[PhantasyStarOnline]

(Does anyone know where the Mafia Sign-Up Thread is?)

[mathgrant]

Pika: 25,000 points
deth: 2,001 points
Me: -9,999 points

I think Pika wins this game of Jeopardy!. Well done, congrats, blah blah blah. I hope the mod says "Well done" to you.

GL DPWestley: I had my backspace key removed and a beverage dispenser pur in it's place. See? I can't go back and fix "put."
GLmathgrant: I once was banned from a M:TG tourney for bringing over 50 banned cards! They were Ace of Clubs, Ace of Diamonds, Ace of Hearts, Ace of Spades, 2 of Clubs. . .

[mathgrant]

What is "Praise Me"?

I'll figure up the scores in a day or to.

[the pacific ocean]

I am not! Leave me out of this.

[Jericho]

Beartalon bared his talons and leapt on Lepton.

[The Cruciverbalist]

Ooooh, so close, mathgrant! The answer I was looking for was "Abraham Washington." Of course, I realized after I'd written the question that "the Pacific Ocean" is technically a correct answer too, but fortunately nobody came up with that answer.

That puts the scores at:

Pika: 25,000
deth: 2,001
math: -99,999

Hmmmmm...

Tell ya what. Just one more question - but it'll be worth 90,000 points.

The question: What mathgrant catchphrase was the inspiration for one of Fatboy Slim's most famous songs?

Oh, and Jericho? It's your turn in the GL punning competition.

[mathgrant]

I know! George Lincoln! I get 80,000 points, for a total of 60,001! I beat pika!

[PhantasyStarOnline]

If you could fuse Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, who would be the outcome? This is a double points question, so whoever answers gets not 40000, but 80000 big ones!

Click me, please.

[dethwing]

I'll take "If presidents married" for 40,000 Alex.

[The Cruciverbalist]

Well, let's see. The one who came closest without going over was... dethwing, who gets 1,000 points!

Pick a category, deth. You can choose between "If Presidents Married," "Things Found in Wadded-Up Napkins," or "Famous People Named 'Grover'"

(For the record, the correct answer was eleventy-threeve.)

[mathgrant]

Scores:
Pika: 25,000
deth: 1,001
math: -19,999

My guess on the question about the limburger cheese statue: 200.

[mathgrant]

I'll get the scores soon. But, I think I'll win the punning competition:

HyToFry uses a bread ruler to measure the height of rye.

And that's such a funny story! If I had been in you position, I'd have tossed the banana peel onto the floor. But your quick thinking really prevented him from stealing that deck of cards! I'm glad that guy is in prison now.

Oh yeah, and LAST PAGE!!! All right!
