  1. Do we give alliteration awards?
  2. Well, for many of us, the 9th was our first!
  3. Now that's a turn of phrase @Lhandon_Nilsen!
  4. Now I love it even more! I love these things! (and learning new ones!)
  5. Lieutenant Promontory, ready to trick out your treat! "You Forget A Thousand Things Every Day Pal. Make Sure This Is One Of 'Em." — Michael De Santa
  6. I let my Midjourney subscription expire, otherwise I'd be posting some dolphins peaking out of a tent right now!
  7. One of the best Malapropisms I've ever seen!
  8. Oh snap! Now we HAVE to see this holo!
  9. I mean... our future selves could add in (next time they go back in time, so it was, retroactively always there!)
  10. ARGH! I was just coming here to post this in appreciations. That's twice this week I've been scooped!!! But seriously, Kudos to @Alora DeVeau and @Jack Kessler for dragging out this painful will-they/won't-they for the better part of a year and resisting the satisfying resolution. Very realistic! (and man, that counselor needs some counseling, get a grip woman!!!)
  11. Pedantics for the win! (We should make a "Pedantry Pendant" to award!)
  12. Kids XsayX think the darnedest things!
  13. Kids XsayX think the darnedest things!
  14. We've had some great taglines so far (including "Gott Speed" one). This was another good one:
  15. I think we've found our event motto! (and the particular context makes it all the more entertaining!)
  16. I love when people use the metaphor and their door is literally often closed too!
  17. Is "blue murder" better or worse than "bloody murder." Or should @Toxin Arlill be worried!?
  18. Given how most of our mission usually go, perhaps @Etan Iljor should start expecting to die in this way...
  19. My character is from an Earth colony founding sometime around or after the ENT era. It was made up of colonists from United Ireland and quite a few of the Polish transplants that had made Dublin their home for generations by the 2200's. So the Colony speaks English but has Irish and Polish place names. My character was born in the Captial (Lechia, Nova Hibernia) which at this point (2400) has mostly devolved into a broad "Federation Standard" accent, but still has pockets of a deeper city accent (think one in which someone can mumble-shout "up the dubs" and have it rhyme!). Outside of the capital, the colony has many settlements on smaller and somewhat isolated islands, many of which have developed their own particular (and more extreme) accents. With Avander's Prep school and then Academy work, he doesn't carry much of an accent, but when he's encountered Scottish lilts, it's been enough to remind him of home. (He may swallow the end of some of his vowel sounds, so 'Oumuamua comes out closer to 'O-mo'-mo' with the 'a' sound being almost breathless.
