This is how many posts have been posted here, ever. Maybe this should go in the game section- if so, Gav can move it. If you don't make it in exactly one year from now, you all fail. Nay, we all fail.

Get working!

We are fencers, we can do anything that we want! I mean if we wanted to overthrow the government, we could!

The scary truth is that the 10's of thousands of fencers in the US and the probably 100's of thousands worldwide, could actually overthrow most of the governments out there if they worked together...

New political party anyone?

Woo! Ya! My new political affiliation is "sabrist!" But what happens when two fencer groups try to overthrow each other?

That's true: epeeists make better politicians. They're boring; have conceited, twisted views; plus they get super mad at nothing! Bingo!

Omly in the size of your letter,s and breadth of your misguided imaginination.
Leaving zeroes out of an equation is a simple way to simplify said equation.

Now excuse me while I hide.

Which means that you agree with my equation and that also means that this is true: 0 [sabre] > -real number [foil] > -real number [epee]. So you're trying to say that both foil and epee don't even get to be rated in positive numbers? Sounds good with me!

Oh when you’re down and looking for some cheering up
Then just head right on up to the candy mountain cave
When you get inside you will find yourself a cheery land
Such a happy and joy filled and perky merry land
They’ve got lollipops and gummy drops and candy things
Oh so many things that will brighten up your day
It’s impossible to wear a frown in candy town
It’s the Mecca of love the candy cave
They’ve got jellybeans and coconuts with little hats
Candy rats, chocolate bats it’s a wonderland of sweets
Ride the candy train to town and hear the candy band
Candy bells it’s a treat as they march across the land
Cherry ribbons stream across the sky into the ground
Turn around it astounds it’s a dancing candy tree
In the candy cave the imagination runs so free
so now Charlie will you please go into the cave.


Hey! I posted! now then if you'll excuse me i have chcolate chips to crush, minds to twist and food to eat!
WAIT FOR ME MR! TAQUITO!

P.S. when capitalizing the abbrev. Mr, in all caps, shouldn't we use ! instead of . ????
it just seems to make sense.
And now to bomb the AP Test!!!!

...sorry folks, i was up too late last night...and then had sugar to fuel myself... lalalallalalala.

This is now my new "Straight Up" thread, because that's died. In its honor:

She came without a farthing
A babe without a name
So much ado 'bout nothing
Is what she'd try to say
So much ado my lover
So many games we played
Through ev'ry fleeted summer
Through ev'ry precious day

All dead all dead
All the dreams we had
And I wonder why I still live on
All dead all dead
And alone I'm spared
My sweeter half instead
All dead and gone all dead

All dead all dead
At the rainbow's end
And still I hear her own sweet song
All dead all dead
Take me back again
You know my little friend's
All dead and gone

Her ways are always with me
I wander all the while
But please you must forgive me
I am old but still a child

All dead all dead
But I should not grieve
In time it comes to ev'ryone
All dead all dead
But in hope I breathe
Of course I don't believe
You're dead and gone
All dead and gone

Woe is Straight Up.
