An Odd Thought

[fishesandfights]

So, I had a crazy thought. Well, maybe not crazy but I think it'd be sorta fun? Presuming it's not already here on level, eighty-six and a half.

A mini-golf course. I mean, a full-on, eighteen hole version of St.Andrews is too much to hope for, right? But we've got enough room here, I figure, for a mini-golf place. Or, y'know, couple floors, whatever.

Still not very comfortable with the whole 'wishing' thing, and I'm really sure one of us couldn't wish for the whole thing, but I think if a bunch of us wished for, like, the small parts, we could assemble the whole thing. And I figure it'll work out. Probably. Or we'll get some non-Euclidean holes that'll be kinda more difficult than the usual ones.

But a driving range'd be nice, too.

Anyhoo, General Jack O'Neill, signing off.

wwhat the fuck is mini-golf

[fishesandfights]

Ah, well.

It's like regular golf, but with clowns.

Also...the occasional windmill. Sometimes a gorilla. Saw one with dinosaurs once.

[Because his sense of humour works this way, really]

[truestsciences]

right
but
wwhat is golf
is it one of those stupid human wwastes of time that make no sense an havve no reason for existin

[He doesn't even know what any of those other things are, except for clowns.]

[fishesandfights]

You're damn right it makes no sense.

Invented by Scotsmen, probably when drunk. You smack a ball with a stick, try to get it in a little hole. Way the hell away. It's fun. Requires skill.

And a great way to kill some time.

[truestsciences]

wwhy wwould you do anythin that makes no sense and wwhat kind of skill does it take to hit a ball
it sounds like the sort of thing lowwbloods do

[fishesandfights]

Because it's fun.

And don't knock it 'til you try it, sparky.

[truestsciences]

it sounds more stupid then fun
wwho the hell do you think you are callin me sparky
thats a stupid name an i wwill not tolerate bein called as such

[fishesandfights]

Have you tried it? No? Then you don't get to say it's stupid. It's not like jumping in front of a bus.

And I think I'm General Jack O'Neill. Who the hell are you? Because, seriously, sparky - complain, complain. New record, huh?

[truestsciences]

ill call it wwhat i wwant
an wwhats a bus an wwhy wwould i not jump in front a one

i dont havve to tell you shit evven if you are a general and obvviously better then wwhat your no doubt filthy blood wwould make you

[fishesandfights]

Ooookay.

So I'm going to go out on a limb here, Sparky, but you're not friendly and kinda sounding a wee bit racist. With the whole 'blood' thing.

So tell you what. Stop bugging me, go get a white hood, and I'll know where to aim the bus.

[truestsciences]

youre not makin any sense anymore
i forget howw you humans are so wweird about things and that you dont havve anythin like the hemospectrum
i dont knoww howw your civvilization didnt fall apart wway before your wworld got destroyed

[fishesandfights]

Yik yik, yak yak.

Also, kinda sure the whole planet is still there. Was just there not long ago. Place was doing ok. So take your hemowhatevers and take a long walk off a short pier.

How do the young punks in the computer division put it? k thnx bye.

[truestsciences]

wwhat
no seriously wwhat

wwhy wwould walkin off a pier hurt me
im a seadwweller i can livve in the wwater
an i cant just get rid a the hemospectrum
i cant make my blood not purple its not scientifically possible
obvviously this is all a huge fuckin misunderstandin

[fishesandfights]

Entirely possible!

And here's the thing: I don't care! I've got better things to do than arguing about it with somebody who just plain pisses me off.

And since the pier metaphor didn't work, how about standing in front of a herd of angry buffalo? Or standard large quadruped.

[truestsciences]

no its not
you dont havve to be such an asshole about things i wwas just tryin to get to knoww about human culture but then wwe got into this wwhole fight an you dont wwant to learn about trolls wwhich is FINE evven if its a bit rude

[fishesandfights]

Oh, but I do. In that kinda mood.

And, y'know, annoying. But to be fair, might not be entirely your fault. Haven't shot anything lately. Don't you just hate it when you get out of a routine?
