Uhhh, this IS StarDestroyer.Net we're talking about! After all, what's a few harmless BDZs and flesh liquifying doses of gamma radiation among friends?

Good Point. Just a few planets now doesn't seem enough...

He's a lawyer. Loyalty means nothing when confronted with cold, hard Wongs and Daltons.

I don't see how probing him at night with frozen sausages will do anything, but hey, whatever tickles your pickle.

I was going to say something about multiple assrapings, but then we'd have to take it to the BotM.

Tell me where you live and provide me with airfare and we'll find out.

Good call.

And I realize there's about a 99.9% chance you're just choosing to misinterpet my post, but you do realize, in this thread at least, that Wongs, Daltons, and Davids are currency (though it's screwed up to me - a David should be higher than a Dalton, since David is the seemingly senior guy second to Wong...but such is life).

But then Dalton would come to you and beat the crap out of you for making him third fiddle...

I'll Run Sd.net Security Group Detachment, SD.netville. I'll be monitoring e-mails, phones, radio, tec...all for your safety, of course.

Do you have some sort of weird frozen sausage fetish that you'd like to share with the rest of us? Don't be shy now, you can talk about here in the name your perversion thread.

No, it's the spandex.

And remember folks, I'm in the BotM and a Gnome to boot. Read these posts with that in mind. Please.

Well, there would be more "villiage idiots" than useful people.

Nevermind the fact that the village's power consumption would be atrocious, most of us would be running away from Einy, and some of us would be starting wars with any other nearby villages over stupid stuff like "SW vs. ST" (ST's better btw.

), and leaving smoking craters behind.

Yeah, SD.net as a villiage would rock!

I would run the local coffee house that sells coffee with addictive additives to ensure a constant row of customers.

On my days off I would teach at the university as the Professor of Quantum De-molecularization of Photosynthetic Organic Polymers and the Physics of this De-molecularization requiring Calculus 858 to enter (you know, the class that no one signs up for, so I really don't have to teach it, just take home a fat tenured professors check...)

I would also run the local automotive shop and the local nail production plant....

Hence why I'm heading a Colonization Department and running the Spaceport, as well as owning the neighborhood weed store. Only the best Hydroponics, grown 200 miles up!

I'll move in briefly to open up a shop called "Needful Things"...hilarity ensues.

The HAB has requisitioned all dockyard capacity and piers for THE WAR EFFORT.

Lobster is considered a critical strategic material and thus will be harvested as quickly as possibul. Since the military has little actual need most will simply be dumped in a big pile ashore. I suppose the shallower draft piers could be left open to fishing craft as well.

I would be the homeless guy walking around town naked.

Shallow? Shallow?! SHALLOW! I will not be regulated to the coast lines to suck on barnacles! I must explore the sea for what she is--the deep...Where the Giant Squid, Megladon, Scylla, Carybdis, Loch Ness, and other creatures of infamous reputation lie.

AWAY! *equips GNOMICON WaterJet and goes off to hunt for the exotic stuff*

*Whistles, walking away with an important part of the WaterJet. About 100 kilometers out the WaterJet stalls, tips over, and explodes.* So much for that gnome.
