Be Very Very Mysterious Day?! BE VERY MYSTERIOUS DAY?!?
Man, and I thought you'd hit a record low with today and tomorrow, but it seems I was wrong. Con-grad-u-lations. This is going to be the worst Week of Randomness EVER, and it's all your fault. I hope you're happy (cuz then at least someome would be.).
Please don't take any of this seriously...I feel really bad typing it, just to let you know

Don't yell at him! Could you have come up with better days? I want to see you try and read every post in one week and judge them all like he does! Go ahead! Yeah, I thought you couldn't.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
You know what, this is going to be awful! But before we start this horrible day, does that include gerunds and participles? Or are only action verbs excluded. And in Latin, "can" is the main verb and whatever the second word is is the dependent verb, is it considered the same in English?Josiah wrote:Wednesday 17th: No Verbs Day. (Good luck! Definately DOES NOT apply to RPs. If you have to, you can just - a setence without them. But, more points for skillfully verb free sentences.)
I just looked it up, it's only used as a verb. So you didn't exclude verbs from that sentence! You're lying to us! Unless auxiliary verbs aren't included?

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Why should I answer that? It's your fault for not being able to read my mind and know exactly what I mean! Why must I always waste time explaning things?!? If I really have to... The more types of verbs you can avoid, the better as far as scoring goes. But if you need to sneak in a gerund or the like it's ok.
Wait? Can is a verb? Curse everyone who never told me that before!!!

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Well, gerund = a noun, participle = adjective, anyways. They "look, smell and taste like verbs, but they aren't" (words of my English teacher).

Unhappiness with education system= yes.
Gerund? Participal? Perhaps unnatentive Astral's knowledge absorbtion was low.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Very clever theme, Josiah.
Hopefully not as difficult as today.

Gerund=*ing.
participle=*ed and such.
Not from my English teacher, but Latin. Sad, no?

Just to inform you, all of my posts today will have the word "pineapple" at the end. The reason behind this is confidential.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
A large and lofty pinapple winked at me one day
He wore a hat, a bowler cap
And he had something to say
Fifth grade song (or was it fourth? It's classfied information). That's just the beginning of it, but I can't tell the rest. It may be because I don't remember it, but it also may be because I'm not about to tell you people.

For reasons unknown, Saturday's theme will remain a mystery until tomorrow.
Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
So, I finally posted the rules for the last Day of the Week of Randomness. As some of you might have guessed from last year, it's a big mash up of themes from pervious days. But will it go well this year? I don't know, guess we'll just have to wait and see, now won't we? Either way, I'd say this year's Week of Randomness is going better than last year's. Lots more posts anyway, though that might have something to do with the timing. Not that it really matters, I suppose. Is anyone even reading this? Gee, I type up this whole monologue and no one is even bothering to read the whole thing...
