lappy

This is the first time I have ever read the word "lappy".

It sounds adorable.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, here's a little number I tossed off recently at the Caribbean.

Dear Mr Cheeks,
Re: Norwegian Blue Parrot

I had purchased this parrot not even half a day ago from your rather swell boutique and now I wish to register a complaint, as when I tried to feed it that night, I had found out it was dead-- for quite some time, actually.

When you had sold it to me that fine morning, you told me that parrot was "just resting", sitting atop its porch. You, sir had assured me that this parrot was in good health and was just tired after a "prolonged squawk" and a "quick pining for the fjords". I took your now blatant lies as something to believe at the time, paid for the corpse and went about my business.

It was when I tried to feed it a cracker that I had seen it fall off its perch, flat on its back and looking as dead as Napoleon was in the battle of the Waterloo. I took the liberty of examining its corpse to find that it had been nailed to the perch, its feathers falling off and the body feeling as faint, cold and limp as a pile of raw Spam.

You were lucky that I had a cold that time; as I had been puzzled the whole day as to why people were coverin' their noses and glaring at old, dead Polly in his cage.

Upon close inspection later that night and a couple of tests to see whether or not he was still alive, I had indeed confirmed that Polly parrot was deceased; he had passed on, he was dead, a stiff; he rests in peace, bereft of life, pushing the daisies, off the twig and was undoubtedly mincemeat from that point onwards. This parrot, is an EX-PARROT.

I ask of you, Mr. Cheeks, a solution to this predicament. We can, obviously, rule out a resurrection as the body was pretty much crushed under the weight of my hands as I had examined it-- how about you give me another parrot, instead?

God I wish they aren't out of stock.

I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible about this situation, Mr. Cheeks.

Sincerely,
Mr. Praline

Basically Monty Python's Dead Parrot Sketch in the form of a letter of complaint.

So, I heard you like 10 pages of non-progress. Can something interesting happen soon?

Well, we're definitely not helping if we're just here, loitering around this half-dead topic complaining about how things aren't getting done, now are we?
This is just ironic.

He must not be familiar with forum etiquette.

Just wants to get his ideas and suggestions out there, no matter how many locks it takes.

I never got into Pokémon.

Me neither.

I never got into quite a few things that people say were popular and good.

So, Monty Python's doing their last performance together July 20th in the O2.
I really want to see it.

But I can't.

Any of you guys hear of this?

Reminds me of the style of Red Alert.

Not the same shape, exactly, but something similar.

Image doesn't work-- at least on my end.

Does it work for anyone else?

I never enjoyed ice cream or any frozen dessert too much. Hurts the teeth because it's so cold.

But I manage.

It's a struggle.

How do I turn the camera to make it face my character?

Umm you don't. You can't see the skin's face on chasecam, only the back.
You can only see it through a mirror.

Also we've gone through this.

This isn't the appropriate thread to post these questions.

Just found out that a lady named Peg Entwistle killed herself by jumping off the Hollywood sign back in the 1930's.

The More You Know, I guess.
Cool stuff.

Anyway, I have nothing against playing as females on a video game.
Remember that issue where feminists went nuts over the new Assassin's Creed not having a female playable character? It was awfully ridiculous.
