Overnight Open Thread

Chapter XXXXXXXXXVIIIVIIIXXVIVIXXX: “A New Despair: Return of the Prodigal genghis.”

Geez, can’t a person take off a year from this abomination of a nightly thread without you people peeing all over the carpet and driving Maet somewhat insane? I suppose not…that would be too much to ask of you. So, as Ace mentioned the other day, I’ll be pitching in on those nights when Maet’s meds have him otherwise…”occupied.” What did you people do to him anyway? I’m told that he spends a large part of his time these days curled up in a fetal position, rocking back and forth, muttering “the ONT…the ONT.”

(But seriously, Maet’s done a kick-ass job with this mess of a nightly thread and I very much appreciate Ace letting me slither my way back on to the blog. I’m quite certain he’ll regret that decision, as will you)

First, a word from Cyrus in order to fulfill Ace’s longstanding mandate that all posts should contain at minimum 15% ”The Warriors” content:

Let the lameness begin::

I think we’ve all been at a bar and heard this one time or another: “My starship is bigger than yours!” Or maybe imagined we heard that, shortly before the bouncer threw us out of the place via the plate glass window.

But now, thanks to The Starship Size Comparison Chart You can put those tiresome arguments to rest and return to the bar with it in hand and scream “starship envy!” into their faces. And even as you’re being defenestrated by the same bouncer, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing you were right. As you bleed-out on the sidewalk.

Been awhile since we checked in on the LOLcat Bible Translation Project. I think that may have been the first tip I ever sent to Ace that he actually posted. And for which he didn’t file a restraining order against me. Sometimes these things slip through the cracks.

But if you haven’t been pious lately, there’s no better place to start with than The Beginning.

(Selection of tonight's ONT theme song forthcoming as soon as my piece o' shit PC decides to quit locking up on me. But it wouldn't be a classic genghis post without at least a dozen things gone wrong, now would it? Figured I'd better get something up before you freaks started gnawing on the furniture. Go ahead and get started without me.)

Tonight’s ONT was written on 100% post-consumer recycled pixels.
