How do you imagine other BDers

[Formendacil]

Not to get distracted... but my "fury" at being mistaken for an American was mainly humourous in intent.

Although, if I'm going to get mistaken for a foreigner online, I'd prefer to be taken for a Brit. I dunno why, they're just cooler. Maybe its because Tolkien was British. Furthermore, since people can only tell your country of origin by what you say about yourself, or by your writing styles, it ought to be quite clear from "flavour", "favourite", "labour", "colour", "centre", and so on and so forth, that I am not American...

And, as noted by Anguirel (my twin, sigh...), people in smaller countried DO hate being taken for their powerhouse next door neighbours. It doesn't matter if your next door neighbours are the NicestPeopleInTheWorlders, you DO try to preserve your own identity.

And I have to confess, that while everyone else here knows SaucepanMan as British, I keep picturing him as Canadian, from somewhere between Ottawa and Toronto.

Sorry about that, eh.

I too imagined Anguirel and mormegil - the two Swordies, if I may - as very similar. The 18ness still has me in shock, and on the subject, I was terribly surprised to find out how young Formendacil is. I pictured him as... I can't remember anymore. But old.

Rune Son of Bjarne... has pledged loyalty to TGWBS.

To Hookbill, I think you'll find. I couldn't spell rhododendron to save my life. Unless that's how you spell it, in which case I evidently can.

You should try mistaking a Scot for one of the southern sassenach...

You should try having fiercely patriotic Scottish teachers. It'd make you think Scotland had actually achieved something... or was still an indepedent country... or something.

Arbitrary on-topicness:

Folwren is a vague, ambiguous blob until I figure out his/her gender. The blob is sort of pinky and gaseous. And glows.

Feanor, despite my knowing (I think) that she is quite tall, is now about 5'5". She wears lots of eyeshadow and wears a black, Gothic skirt. She can often be seen twirling and dancing around in it, creating what some would call music on her panpipes.

Don't worry shotie, it took me five attempts for word spell checker to tell me what it was.

Rhododendron, how comical!

Eomer of the Rohirrim is a vintage rock star, without piercings, but with long hair and scruffy two-days since shaved facial hair. He wears patched trenchcoats and eschews jeans for black pants. There are chains involved, but in a very classic sort of way. Girls flock to him, as they do to every extremely good looking lead singer who is also the master of riffage. His fantastic wit does no harm either.

Fea, I love you! I have been trying for a long time to describe the way I imagine Eomer but I'm terrible with adjectives. You must have read my mind or something!

Tall? My, my. Your guess gives me an extra inch, m'boy. And I thought we agreed to keep those panpipes on the down low.

TGWBS is not short. My imagination will not allow him to be. He is about 5'9", maybe taller, and... well... shh, but he's actually Orlando Bloom.

I'll have you know it's only in the last few years that Scotland has become slightly rubbish.

Hmm, let's see. If I'm a vintage rock star, then...

The Only Real Estel is the drummer. Come on, he holds the tune together; he makes sure that everything makes sense; when I'm almost ruining everything by seriously considering leaving wilwa the Shiriff alive on the final night of Werewolf, he's......you get the idea. (Plus, he's clearly rock'n'roll).

SamwiseGamgee is on bass. He's not actually around that much, but his presence is felt everywhere (especially on The Greatest Thread of All Time) and I notice immediately when he stops playing.

TGWBS is on keyboards, because every group needs their insane, shrieking keyboard player (well, maybe 'needs' isn't the right word.....anyway, he's there!) Though he will probably be the first one kicked out for substance abuse.

Fordim Hedgethistle is management. Obvious, really. He is power. He sets us on our way in the backstabbing world so very well, because as far as backstabbing goes, he's been there before.

Mormegil and Firefoot are the roadies. Really not sure why, but I'm sure they'd do a great job.

And Fea is the....well, you know. It begins with a 'G'. (Sorry, couldn't resist. )

And that's how I've imagined those mentioned for the past ten minutes.
