I just posted something, and then looked over it (wrong order) and realized that it should go on this thread.

I would find that slightly, errm, strange if it were on somebody elses post [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] but am not going to edit it because I think it looks....interesting. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Iarwain 04-08-2003 07:42 PM

That's a very odd typo, Galadriel! I was staring at it for about a minute, and couldn't tell what was wrong with it at all. The way that extra "h" is placed in the word coherent, very odd. It looks right, almost.

GaladrieloftheOlden 04-08-2003 07:57 PM

Lol! That was just so cohehrent, don't you think? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

*lol* I guess if one is to make a mistake it should be on this thread, heh? Lyra, the stork is exactly what I was thinking, and I have no idea why I wrote pelican. I'm leaving it though, just in case someone else finds humor in it. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]


The quote I posted was for 'recieve' which I believe was supposed to have been 'conceived'. I thought it was funny, if no one else did. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

And his deceitful desert spoon
I am SO sorry but I couldn't resist! I just immediatly got this image of a spoon in the middle of the desert wearing a turban and sunglasses. I once wrote a story when I was little. It took place in

'A huge dessert!'

I love tpyos (mistake made on purpose)

Yours always

They don't disapear! They look like a huge rock. The cloaks won't turn 'shart nor blade', but they could, shield them from unfriendly eyes...under some circumstances. Obviously the cloaks have their limitations when it comes to illusenment.
Hmm. Several typos here... I wonder if illusenment could be classified as elf magic. If so would it be considered innate or the result of sorcery? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I'm trying to figure out "Shart nor blade". The blade bit's OK, but will someone help me please?

Iarwain 04-20-2003 07:55 PM

That's quite a bumbling rampage there, Vanima. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] It seems that the person's fury was so intense that it disabled their ability to type!

Lyra, if you're serious (it's so hard to detect sarcasm in written conversation) I believe it was meant to mean "turn shaft nor blade". Please pardon me for being a blind fool otherwise. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Lyra Greenleaf 04-23-2003 11:24 AM

No, for once in my life I was not being sarcastic. Does that make me really stupid? Anyway, thank you!

Most likely it should be 'a volleyball tournament at UBC'
