Things I have learned

[x_maker]

1: Do not attempt to get into a belching contest with Mr. Marko. He will win. This is as assured as the sun rising tomorrow. The man has a disturbing and thoroughly impressive talent.

1a: Do not eat his salsa, either. I believe he puts some form of acid in there. I may have seen a tortilla chip burst into flames upon dipping, although that may just have been Jubilee's fault.

2: When watching "Braveheart", do not joke to Terry that "the Scots and the Irish are basically the same, right?". She punches hard.

3: Staying up until 1am watching movies with classmates? Priceless. There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's Xavier's.

1. Well, sure. I mean, look at the size of the guy's chest. Gotta be acoustics like Carnegie Hall in there, not to mention a gas capacity normally to be found only at a propane dealership.

1a. Also, he's bulletproof. He probably could put acid in there. I wanna try this stuff now, because even if it kills me I'll just wake up tomorrow with a headache.

2. Oh, dude. Oh, man, I'm surprised you're not still running. At least you didn't say it while Terry and Rahne were both in the room? (You didn't, right? Because I can just see them forming the League of Extraordinarily Cute Redheads with Accents to kick your ass.)

3. And thus we see the weakness of my clever plan to add thirty miles of driving distance onto every conceivable errand. Wish I'd been there.

See, now I'm torn between self-preservation and, well, Extraordinarily Cute Redheads with Accents.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

Grr.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Great, now I'm going to get bit for that one. Thank you SO much, Jamie.

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

This is why I never bother with self-preservation--at least that way I know I'm going to get in trouble, so I don't have to worry about it.

Maybe she'll only nibble a little?

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

You cannot see it, but this is my "..." face.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

No nibbling. Just a perfunctory growl.

(I was mostly kidding.)

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

(I know, but it got his "..." face. My work here is done. Up, up, and away!)

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

(I thought you might, but I figured I ought to say something for the record. Or whatever.)

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

I will somehow have my glorious revenge on you both.

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

I'll just hold my breath, then? :)

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Oh, you may be the King Emeritus of practical jokes, Madrox, but I? Oh, I know revenge. Do I ever know revenge...

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

That reminds ME! You. Me. Revenge talk. Buying pizza or something. me! Allowance! Parents sent money!

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

YOUR parents sent YOU money? Whoa.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

I think my Gram did a guilt thing on my mom, cause she sent a bank card and a letter about how I better not spend it all on stupid stuff because they were only giving me so much a month and I had to be responsible about money and not spend it all on wrestling tapes. Mom can't be nice without a big ol lecture. I think she's figuring it keeps me from having an ego or something.

Anyway so, yeah, I have some money.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Awesome! Yeah, sure, we'll go do something. Guys' Night Out on your tab.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

How many people are you two getting revenge on? I don't think I did anything to you. I didn't do anything to Forge far enough back to require reminding, for that matter....

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Our plans shall not be revealed to the Double-X Chromosome Club! Bat your eyes and wiggle your hips all you want, we shall not give in to your wily ways!

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

ShinyBitsBoy is asking for trouble now.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

And don't you try with the kitty eyes and the wagging tail! I'm on to you, missy!

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Catseye thinks she is being challenged, yes! :D

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

I'm not so sure Catseye wouldn't nibble you.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

She does that. It is, apparently, a cat 'thing'.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

I think in this case it is a Catseye 'thing'.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Mmm. What are you talking about? That was really good salsa. I need to ask Mr. Marko where he got that stuff so I can stock some for myself.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

I grew up on chipotle preserves on bagels - I know from good and spicy. That stuff, man, that stuff was not of this earth. Whatever's in that, it needs a biohazard warning.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

I know. That's what makes it so good. :)

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

If you keep describing it that way, Doug will just continue to be encouraged to have more, you realize.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Too late. :)

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Oh dear. I know you like your spicy food, but I think that salsa is actually alive.

[x-juggernaut.livejournal.com]

My own brew. Bit of the good pico de gallo from that gourmet place in town, some Thai chili peppers, a little bit of Vietnamese horseradish and pickled cabbage, and let it sit for about a week or so to percolate. Gets the blood flowing good, doesn't it?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Heck yeah, sir. I never thought I'd live to see the day something put Dave's Insanity Salsa to shame. We should market this stuff. :)

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Dude, that stuff hurts my nose all the way across the ROOM. Food shouldn't smell like it hurts.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Catseye thinks the salsa should die.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Yeah it should.

[x-mirage.livejournal.com]

I missed a movie night? damn it.
