Firefly
Consuela: Television news is pointing people to us? Oy.
Mike P: Oh my... This might not be a good thing. ~shudder~
Allyson: Not believing it. Not believing it. Quick, everyone, start talking about cardboard making techniques, and don't stop.
PMM: Start with a character. We'll call him "Riley..."
Aimee: First are making plain cardboard or corrugated. And if corrugated, how do we make the little bumply wavy bits?
Heather Alayne: Crimping iron.
Aimee: Since we are going to make cardboard, can I have a box and make it into a transmogrifier?
Narrator: To make the bumply wavy bits, take the wet cardboard to Chicago in January. It will cause the bumply wavy bits -- it's the cardboard version of goose pimples.
Sophia Brooks: First you have to make the cardboard, then the box and THEN the transmogrifier.
Allyson: I think we'll need to take a vote, after we select spokespeople for the plain, and the corrugated parties. Then we'll need some philabustering.
Narrator: Can't the transmogrifier make its own box? I mean, if it can do all the other transmogrifier-y things, can't it do that?
Aimee: New question for the ages: Which came first, the transmogrifier or the box?
Laura: Can I have a hole cut in my cardboard to watch tv?
Katie: People, talking about cardboard in an endearing and entertaining manner won't help.
Narrator: Yes, do not look directly into the TVGuide Channel or you will burn your retina.
Allyson: Okay then, we need to be boring. Perhaps billytea and I can talk about various bird calls.
billytea: Maybe we could talk in birdcalls. Would that work?
Allyson: We could rename the Firefly thread something else. Plain Toast: Lively Discussion on the Latest C-Span Coverage of the Kleenex Budget in the Senate.
Allyson: killdeer!!!! chickadee! chickadee dee dee!!!!
thessally: I think you'd need to make up some new ascii characters unless you want to lose all the nuance, bopping around yelling, "TWEE!!!TWEE!!!" Or that's what Victor's bopping around yelling. I think he thinks it's a bird thing. I'm not sure. Send medication now.
Narrator: Plain Toast: Lively Discussion on the Latest C-Span Coverage of the Kleenex Budget in the Senate. That's some code for porn, right?
Mana: But sorry guys, they actually showed the address on the screen for the last 15 seconds while she made her closing comments. And she said it out loud and correctly.
Allyson: Can we make it point to a site about corrugated cardboard?
