So many possibilities, especially when you bring in stuff like DRODerata!

Wouldn't this just be changing the text of DROD to conform to other new games that come out?

No, Dog Latin, which is basically Latin words with English grammar. "Nil Illegitemi Carborundum", etc.

I don't know any Latin, so can you tell me what you mean?

"Nil Illegitemi Carborundum" - Don't let the bastards grind you down. I've probably buggered up the spelling, but the sentiment's there.

See, it looks like Latin, but it's not. It's probably a bit untrue to say that dog Latin is Latin words with English grammar, because it's mostly a mix of English and Latin designed to look like a Latin phrase.

I like one from Pratchett...Sodomy non sapiens

Basically, "I'll be buggered if I know."

Game on,

Ah...

But that's a verb.

What you've listed seems to be a pluperfect of some kind (Perfect stem + imperfect of "esse") .

Wait... a new Latin verb! DRODere - To (play) DROD.

Smitemasters are people who've finished the game, not people who are playing the game.

Smiticus!

I'm Smiticus!

Even worse, someone will try and tie Monty Python into it, bugger it up, and say that I'm Sparticus and so is my wife.

I'm sorry I bought up Monty Python. Next time it's a Futurama reference - I know you all don't get those.

If you decide to reference Family Guy, please wait a few weeks...I just picked up Seasons 1 and 2 on DVD and I need to refresh my memory on the episodes I have seen as well as catch up on the ones I haven't.

Game on,

Family Guy, ah the hilarity. One of my favorites is when Peter and Lois's whole neighborhood wins a boat, and everyone goes to pick it up, and when Peter and Lois get there they are told they can either get a boat, or choose the mystery box. Peter says, "Hey Lois! Let's pick the box. There could be anything in that box! Even a boat!"

Next scene, Lois says, "You just had to pick the box, didn't you." Peter says, "Come on Lois, I've done stupidier things. Like that time we got to choose from the boat or the mystery box." Then there is a flash back of five minutes ago, with Peter repeating what you had just saw... great stuff.

I'm also kind of fond of the one where Optimus Prime is Jewish... but anyway.

Family Guy is so funny. It's a shame there aren't more episodes. I've seen them all at least five times. I guess I need to rewatch them with audio commentary now.

They're making new seasons starting (I think) next year. And "When You Wish Upon A Weinstien" was never aired as far as I know, it's only available on the DVDs.

"The only thing worse than the pain in my mouth is the excrement coming out of yours!" Heh, Stewie is the man... toddler... whatever.

Anyway, it has to be done, and I may as well be the one to do it:

Erik, Matt, Oneiromancer, Zmann, me, we're turning this thread in to something that might be found in the Anything forum. Stop it!


Heh, I finally got to slap Erik with an off-topic sign
