Hello, everynyaa. How
Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket
Hello, everynyaa. How
Hello, everynyaa. How are you? Fine, thank you. Osaka: Oh maw gosh!
Hiiiiiiii. You can call me Red. I am a rather bookish guy who has been badgered into joining the Chatterbox by Sakura. Sakura badgers me into a lot of things..... Anyway, I'm new to this whole Chatterbox business,so if you could introduce yourself that would be appreciated. Oh, and Sakura told me that there are only a few guys on the Chatterbox. Follow me, guys, and become my loyal minions! Follow me like lemmings and I will lead you to a great and glorious future, where boys are no longer the minority! For those who serve me faithfully, I will reward you greatly!
Okay, I'm just ranting now. I think my point has been made and I can now slink away....

@SC: The angels have the phone box. Oh and the 11th Doctor bit Amy! Allons-y!
@Red: You remind me of this guy who I've been friends with since 4th grade. (I'm in 6th grade now.) He has a world domination plan too.
Oh and in case you people haven't noticed I'm insane right now. I'm not usually this insane, but my friend gave me a smallish bag of candy with lots of candy in it yay! And she gave it to me at recess and everyone was all like,"Oh Maggie please give us candy! We're your friends!" And they were the popular people (only one of them is nice; one of them was mean to my sister) so I was all like,"No! My precious!" in my bestest Gollum voice. And yes I am aware that I said "bestest."
So anyway the guy I like (the one Red reminds me of) told ME there was a misunderstanding and he just likes me as a friend. Even though in the note he circled yes (yes I know very cliché but I was too chicken to ask him in person) and he told everyone on his bus we were dating, which I know because a girl in my homeroom asked me, "Are you dating Sam?" And I told her no because that's the truth. But why would he tell everyone we were dating if he didn't LIKE me?
I'm so sorry for subjecting you people to this rant.

We have to write sentences using vocabulary words in my English class, so I decided to write The True Story of How I Was (Almost) Poisoned with a Cupcake. The words I had to use were: virulent, nonchalant, skulk, benefactor, altruistic, brandish, explicit, uncanny, deft, truculent, omniscient, scrupulous. I now present:
The True Story of How I Was (Almost) Poisoned with a Cupcake
This is a true story of my close brush with death and the most virulent of all pastries, the humble yet deadly poisonious cupcake. Back in August, I was gathering an army of lemming followers nonchalantly, unknowing of the fact that my life was soon going to change forever. Little did I know that a skulking girl was about to pop up and offer me a cupcake. Once she had popped up, she claimed to be my benefactor and offered me help in gathering a lemming army and two cupcakes. I sensed her motives were not altruistic and decided that I would reject her two offers. Loudly, I grabbed one of the cupcakes and brandsihed it above my head. "This," I cried explicitly, "is probably poisoned! I will not accept it or your other offer!" The girl growled uncannily, a sure sign that I had seen through her plot. She deftly snatched the cupcake and scuttled away. I gulped at the furious expression on her face and knew that it was an omen of the truculent war to come. I thanked my lucky stars for the omnscinet power of detecting the poison in the cupcake and then walked away, knowing that this could not end well. I have recorded this story most scrupulously, how dare you suggest I have embellished it!

Hahaha! I love it! I used to make up math stories about psychotic thieving chicks that were like the Addams Family, where there were like, 12, and several would always die, but mysteriously be back in the next some some less math problem.

Verra verra nize...

*claps* That was very lovely.
I had a dream that the people living in our neighbors house (they weren't our neighbors even though the same people have been living in that house since I was born) sent lemmings to attack us so we threw buckets of blueberries at them through our windows. I really don't know why.

I was pushed into joing by Lyra. She said I need to take a break from training and do something else so that's how I started.
(April 15, 2013 - 8:25 pm)
So... I've abandoned this thread. Who won the war? I'm assuming someone did, since this is now a discussion thread.
Also, hi, SC. :D
(April 18, 2013 - 6:32 pm)
Red did. But only because SC/Quintus surrendered.
(April 18, 2013 - 7:52 pm)
Ah. How disappointing. Thanks for telling me!
(April 19, 2013 - 4:18 pm)
I won, because SC surrendered.
Anyway, Tiffany, you can recieve a dragon and a seat at Cair Paravel from SC and a pity cookie from me.
It isn't poisoned. And it's a rather nice cookie.
(April 19, 2013 - 9:16 pm)
*snort* I don't need a pity cookie. Congratulations on taking over the world, though. I don't really mind that much anymore.

Hi Draco/Tiffany W./Fantast Quill!
Red's piece made me remember that I wrote a similair thing some time ago for my English class. I will now proceed to type it up.
The prompt was to use five coercive persuasion techniques. I adapted parts of the Lemming War to suit my needs.
Red and Sakura-san and their army of lemmings are en route to Alaska! I, High Queen SC of Narnia, am certain that you, my most loyal followers, will defeat the evil that is the lemmings! Yes, dragonslayers and personifications of states, the time has come to defeat the despicable Red and his evil chief adiver Sakura-san. We shall meet them on dragons and burn all their lemmings. Do not listen to the stories they tell you! We will become the most dominant group geared towards world domination. You will become the best dragonslayers ever by defeating the mounstrous lemming army. I ask you to bring ear plugs, because Sakura-san is a despicable sorcerer who commands the most vile demons of Enackra and they can weave spells that will make you join them. Fight with me, and I shall lead you to victory! Betray me, and you will be destroyed, and no longer will you hold the highest honor of the Order of the Dragonslayers of Flintwall. Also, you will be banished to Calormen. Now, to war, dragonslayers, to the death of the lemmings!
Melody: And that, ladies and gentlemen, concludes our broadcast of High Queen SC's speech. Have a great day, and don't forget to buy supplies for the imminent zombie apocalypse.

I got a check plus and a smiley face sticker on the assignment. I'm pretty sure my teacher now thinks I'm crazy, though.
(April 21, 2013 - 8:01 pm)
Ahh, but it's so much better when people think you're crazy! Gives you more creative license to do the most odd, and bizarre things, and nobody looks at you weird because they already know you're nuts! (Yes, I can speak from experience!)
(April 22, 2013 - 2:05 pm)
That is beautiful. What were the techniques?
(April 22, 2013 - 3:40 pm)
The techniques were loaded language, dispensing of existence, demand for purity, environment control, and sacred science.
