Martin Kicks Arse

Something to bear in mind.

There's been a bit of a metamorphosis.
Some things to consider.

"though Jester is my mate"
can't be bothered looking up the date but bear in mind jester's/ jesta's spelling changes depending on the tone and that these two? proported characters are the only two who have any connection outside these boards. Magrat even goes as far as refering to what jester might be thinking and making referances that would be very funny if she was in league in an injoke kind of way
ie "Jester would keep himself visible no matter what, as I would and as everybody else does."...and continues baiting for the sake of it after jester leaves.
There was a post just after he left where she made nice and got a pleasent reply and then after a couple of other posts had been put on top went back to her make nice post and added the unnice bit about the foxhunting metaphor

"whats that 'pose to mean, peter?"

note the 'pose (') is a fairly formal way to represent the abbreviation. Not spose or any other informal shorthand.
and finally

"we regard lurking anonymously as very impolite and a sign of ill intent."
and
"I'm clearly more objective than you are and I can chose my own friends. I'm much more interesting because peer politics does not sway my judgement.


Does this honestly sound like the same individual to you?
note the typically trolling "I'm clearly more objective..." and "I'm much more interesting"...

Can you conceive that anyone who could write this concisely would not have picked up on the not so subtle backhanders I'd seemed to sail past her earlier? I call bullshit. Fun while it lasted though. Stirling effort.

Until I see a photo of some wee lassie in boxers with 'Pnet international representitive' on them then I'm sorry but magrat/jester/one of jesters mates/jesters wife/ unknown accomplice. You are IGNORED.
you may well be cathy and you may well be 20 but jesters back on board private messaging you and helping with your homework.
Do try and be yourself in future and realise that you are being used as much as you think you are playing a joke on others, as if it matters and as if its important you in fact exist.
I or anyone can blink you out with one click. (pop)

Congratulations! Could you give us a few details about her?
American? Performer?

It was the nom de plume of Terry Pratchet's "Magrat" that did it for me.

What's this, a post from a 20 year old chick that reads Pratchet?

Really?

[martin ewen]

background

Garlick, Magrat
The youngest of the three witches and resident witch of Mad Stoat. She had been the one who got the idea to form a coven at the beginning. Sloppy and romantic, blond, disheveled hair, lots of occult jewelry, none working. Thin, short and flat. Very open-minded. Daughter of Simplicity Garlick, niece of Yolande Garlick and granddaughter of Araminta Garlick (none of the above was a witch). Trained in witchcraft by Goodie Whemper. Usually too shy to speak (especially in the presence of Verence), but dangerous to cross on a bad day. Appears in Wyrd Sisters, Witches Abroad and Lords And Ladies, mentioned in Guards! Guards!.

[Peter Voice]

From the very first post.
And he actually called me mediocre.

[Peter Voice]

On the subject of being on-line in invisible mode.

Every- day, regardless of whether I am here or not, my computers are turned on from 7.00am till at least 10.00pm and are on-line the whole time. Since at least 3 months before the current p.net boards were launched, I have had one hard-drive totally dedicated to recording and monitoring the site. Jim asked me to be a moderator but I declined because it seemed a bit like a censor's role. I offered to help in a different way and if you wish to know the value of that, you should ask Jim, especially about the personal message glitch that had Martin's messages coming from chance's mailbox. Or was it vice versa? Shit it was funny but we could not allow it to last and think it was fixed before any-one noticed. There were other staggering funny possiblities but hey, something has to be trustworthy.

Simply put, I do not think it is good that people see my name on this place 18, sometimes 24, hours a day, just because my computer is here. I try to remember to let people know I'm active but often forget.

But hey, that doesn't mean I'm not lurking.

Next?

Its 2 hours shy of a full 24 hours without a girliepost. Thats a record since conception. I can almost hear the little minds, whirring, whirring.

I've not read Prachet, but...

didn't either jester or magrat mention that it'd be funnier if i'd read prachet at some point during this whole thing?

i'm going to have to go check - it's killing me.
peace,
k

TERRY PRACHETT, er... my bad on previous spelling.

I'm laughing because Magrat spoke to you in a genuine form of English, a subculture, the sort of thing you get grants if you perform shakespeare in it, and you thought she couldn't spell. That was very multicultural of you wasn't it. It was the Dan Quayle potato moment all over again. An American correcting her English.

As for the attention starved. Are you all ignoring me then? Noooo. I get lots of attention. Sometimes people who don't know me even speak to me in CAPITAL LETTERS.

Mind you, if you were a Terry Pratchett fan that wouldn't be a good thing.

i'm not sure what that all means... but, that's the reference i was thinking of.

hm. gives me something to muse over this morning as i plug away at writing grants... i shall monitor the situation with much interest as this develops.

Rotating swiftly while speeding downhill

Its a reference to some character in a TP book who's Capital letters had some power or other.
Its not an internal reference as such just a general one. And if a clue unneeded. Google jester.get a 5 year old disused website. Google magrat and get multiple TP references.
Now Its a beautiful day, I must ski. Because I'm a highly successful international clown and because this threads called martin kicks arse.
It was created by jester as a little eternal wet dream he could have with my intellect.
Fuck him, I'm sking, he can wank in my absence.

[firegirl]

I THINK THEY'RE BUSTED

you go ski martin... i agree - jester can wank in your absence.

i haven't googled either one of them. but, when i get a break in the action this morning perhaps i shall - just for s&g.

Death is the only charater in the Terry P. books that SPEAKS LIKE THIS, which is why he said it aint good for a Terry charater because it means Death is talking to you, and you're going to die.

And now for Dicko and the Colonel's wrap- up.

Dicko; "Well, Colonel, that was a disappointing end to this year's tournament but you can't compain about 2 fatalities in the last quarter, can you?"

The colonel; "No, Dicko, it wouldn't be "Blood-word" without the blood, would it?"

Dicko; " 'pose not, Colonel, but most of the players seem to have escaped unscathed. How many weeks to you think that #$%&# (bleep) will get for his dirty behind-play tactics?"

The colonel; "Oh for goodness sake, you do go on, Dicko. He'll get off, after-all, this is "full-contact" Blood-word.
At the end of the day, the tribunal will deal with it.
But for now , from me, "The Colonel", and him, "Dicko", 'Good-night from us and we hope to see you at the 2005 Summer Nats.' ".

Peter - in the real world "Chicks" can read for themselves. While you would find a "chick" who shares your neo hippy interests in Dungeons and Dragons a suspiscious wet dream, Terry Pratchett is one of the best selling authors of the last 20 years in the English Speaking world and it isn't quite the same.

Martin - Jesta has not been feeding me stuff, I'm more than capable of posting without the help of arrogant middle aged men. And the exchanges between Firegirl and myself are far sharper and entertaining than anything a MAN could come up with, as you and Jesta have proved. And that crap about "your either with us or against us" theories are very Republican and I didn't get that bit off Jesta, I got it off my sister. As for Jestas thing about lurking, I didn't need to read his mind, we are taught internet etiquette at school, to protect us from peodophiles and stuff. We learn early on to stay away from people with scant profiles, or who are hidden from view in Forums.

What does your class teach you about posting your picture on a forum that potentially has very unstable human beings visiting on a regular basis?
