Special OOC Holiday Thread (Act now before it's gone!)

[Sterkarm]

Kazimierz wants a powerful president next term that happens to share his name and a revamped military. Also it wouldn't hurt to have a socialist politician-burning.

I'd say Tilly is Tiny Tim, Josephus is Scrooge, all the conservatives of Eutopia are Cratchett, cause Josephus won't let them (us ) get away with anything. Also, Langley is the ghost of Christmas present, I'm the ghost of Christmas future (), and IKK is the ghost of Christmas past.

Traditions are obvious. Feats of Strength, the Airing of the Grievances, and all traditions needed to make a Festivus for the rest of us!

Okay, so the holiday's are winding down...and soon this thread will be relegated to the "SHOW OTHER POSTS" area of the forum, accessible only those who view such antiquities.

But my thought was that the ghosts of X-mas, past, present, and future, might best be old characters no longer with us, and we certainly have some colorful ones to choose from:

The Charles Morgan in Full-Hobo gear as Marley, perhaps?
Lady Europa as a festive ghost of X-mas present?

But who would be the sinister ghost of X-mas future? Do we have anyone who was truly "sinister"? (No left-handed jokes, please. )

Any last thought on a Eutopian X-mas, post-them now.

Things will pick up again in regular game-time after 1/6.

Do we have anyone who was truly "sinister"?

What, Yuri Voshkod wasn't?

 

[unmerged(4271)]

Ah, Touche'.

Okay, so Yuri makes our most sinister list. Good catch.

Completely unrelated, my favorite adaptation of Dicken's classic was "Scrooged".

It's fun to put Eutopians into those roles too.

Hajji = Bobcat Goldthwaith.

 

[Voshkod]

What, Yuri Voshkod wasn't?

"The Phantom slowly, gravely, silently approached. When it came, Scrooge bent down upon his knee; for in the very air through which this Spirit moved it seemed to scatter gloom and mystery.

"It was shrouded in a deep black garment, which concealed its head, its face, its form, and left nothing of it visible save one outstretched hand, which was clutching a Soviet-era RPG-7. But for this it would have been difficult to detach its figure from the night, and separate it from the darkness by which it was surrounded."

Yuri Voshkod as the ghost of Xmas yet to come.

2) Austri to stop being so Paranoid

That isn't going to happen anytime soon.

Happy 2005 (or, in Eutopian terms, 2032), everyone!

Hippy No Beer!

I actually got to play some golf today, not wearing a jacket or sweater, as the temperature hit 60 F, which is more typical of October than January for suburban NYC. Happy New Year Eutopians!

 

[HJ Tulp]

Happy New Year folks

 

[Josephus I]

Had all of three beers last night...my most sober nye since 1984

How do you expect to run a country like Eutopia while sober?

Happy New Year!

Is it just me, or do fewer and fewer people seem to know Auld Lang Syne as time goes on...

Happy New Year!

You mean as the song goes on? Cause I start to get a little hazy on the words later in there...

Or did you mean as the night goes on? Cause I get drunker and drunker and then EVERYTHING gets hazy.

Happy New Year, Eutopians, Tilapians, and St. Espritians alike.

Shoveled the front walk and sidewalk once in the late afternoon and again just now, will probably have to do it again in the morning. Didn't even touch the driveway yet. Now I know why Eutopia moved south.

Happy long weekend all those based in the US!
