I've read so much Terry Pratchett that I should have known. Though my first guess was wrong if I had known it was Pratchett. I would have guessed Carpe Juggulum or The Fifth Elephant

Mmm, these are nice biscuits. Do you make them yourself?

I think It's the motto of the Omnian exquisition, but I'm not entirely sure anymore. Ah well - doesn't matter. ^_^

As a matter of fact, yes. ^_^

I'll second that - the lounge isn't for your daily logging. Use a site like NGlog for that. :)

Excellent. I believe we've found a nice way of paying for your weapons order, should you wish to complete a purchase. I'm having the Howitzer transported to the firing range if you fancy a few test shots tomorrow

Either that or the Elite Guard Barracks in the C&C forum. That way you can keep improving your postcount too :P

He's probably tense because of a few factors.
1) He's the only dragon in this dimension
2) Not long left until he leaves school
3) Some sword wielding maniac barged into his house last night and tried to steal his treasure.

On the supernatural scale, at least there's probably more werewolves about in the world. They just haven't shown themselves (though you could probably smell them from quite a way off)

I'm level 4 now. I liked level 3 better.

reached 5000 saves last night.

Did that ranking system change from a while ago? Idk cuz I just joined...

Could be. :) Or, to quote Max (from Sam & Max): I don't think he gets hugged enough.

Good question, actually. I guess you're right, but it's hard to estimate how many there of either kind - dragon therians certainly aren't unheard of, either.

When there's Terry Pratchett's name written somewhere, it sure to catch my attention :)

Hmm, that quote sounds like something (hopes i don't translate it incorrectly) Grandmother Weatherwax would've said. You know, witch in Lanker? What book is that from?

Oh, and hi everyone. Haven't been here lately. What'd i miss?

As I said, it's from "Small Gods" (as far as I can recall)... and it's the motto of the Omnian exquisition (or maybe the inquisition; I'm not entirely sure about that anymore). :) In other words, it's actually a rather evil quote when you think about it.

I guess Esme might be caught saying something like this, too, but I'm pretty sure she'd neither use words like "testiculos" nor any language besides her own. ^.^

*noddles* It's been a while since I read most Pratchett books, and I haven't read "the fifth elephant" at all yet, but unless you ask me about the more obscure things, I still should remember most stuff. :)

That is most surprising, as it's the one Pratchett book with lots of material on werewolves (yes, even more than the watch with Angua)

Naw, I'm not gonna lower myself to that level... :)

Repeat my last sentence, but with the word 'power sander' instead of sandpaper. I'll try to find something more abrasive

That's just why I haven't read it, actually. Portrayals of both wolves and werewolves in literature tend to be clichéd and uninformed, and unfortunately, even Terry is no exception. Stuff like the classification of werewolves as undead (a silly mistake that should be obvious when you think about it) or tieing shape change to the phases of the moon is just distracting, or maybe slightly annoying, but it always makes me cringe when an author describes wolf behaviour, putting an emphasis on how it's not what everything thinks it's like and how people's stereotypes are simply wrong, and then simply gets it wrong.

I'm not sure where this comes from, either - shouldn't a good author research the topics he's writing about before he starts writing about them? There's dozens of books on wolf behaviour, and although not all of them are good, well, most are.

It's similar as far as werewolves are concerned, too, as most authors seem to base their werewolf behaviour on a mixture of wolf behaviour and real-world werewolf folklore (or at least what most people, those who haven't actually looked into these things, think is werewolf folklore these days). And of course, how can you get werewolf behaviour right when you're not getting wolf behaviour right? Not to mention that folklore is just that, not necessarily something to be taken seriously, and that misconceptions about folklore are even worse.

Terry Pratchett is not quite as bad as other authors, but he's not good in this regard, either, and that's why I simply haven't read "the fifth elephant" at all yet. Maybe I'm taking it all too serious (the books, I mean, not therianthropy), but I don't think I really could enjoy it when I constantly think "this is all totally wrong". (And while I can't be sure that that's what'd happen until I actually read the book, I'm certain enough to not read it.)

Repeat my last sentence, but with the word 'power sander' instead of sandpaper. I'll try to find something more abrasive

*chuckle* That's not what I meant, silly.
