What DO men want? - Page 10

***Earniel*** · 03-21-2002, 05:26 PM

I don't know the history correlation, but the rest reads something like ...understands what I say,I'm going to talk in French.
Look,I'm ready young lady, may he or she who was right, win and that the loser may beg for mercy on his knees.

How's that for a translation?

Xivigg · 03-21-2002, 05:31 PM

you're too good

*bow before Eärniel*

***Earniel*** · 03-21-2002, 05:54 PM

Thank you, you're too kind.

But what does the first part of the first phrase mean?

**crickhollow** · 03-21-2002, 06:01 PM

Thanks, Earniel!
Xivigg, I know that was the point, but I hate being on the outside of a potentially good joke!

Kyote Fields · 03-21-2002, 06:31 PM

Where do you live Straws? Krispy Kremes are donuts made by the gods and granted to us mortals to consume at our leisure. In other words, they's damn good donuts!!!
Myself, I like to eat Ice cream. Strawberry preferably.

Nibs · 03-21-2002, 08:00 PM

Yep, they's donuts. We didn't have them when I lived in California, down south.

My favorite are the chocalate and sprinkled ones. Four of those in one sitting is my threshold. Any more, and I think I'd vomit.

Nibs · 03-21-2002, 08:01 PM

Hey! I get it! Men want donuts.

Kyote Fields · 03-21-2002, 08:28 PM

Men have wanted many many things throughout this thread, of which food is not the least. But right now what men across the world really want is a fight between Eruviel and Xivigg!!! YEAH!!!! Fight Fight Fight Fight.....

Eruviel Greenleaf · 03-21-2002, 09:54 PM

Well then, I'm here, and ready!

Anyone want to start placing bets?

*bows dramatically to Xivigg*

markedel · 03-21-2002, 10:27 PM

MMM donuts. Tim Hortons are good...but I want some Krispy Kreme...

Rána Eressëa · 03-22-2002, 12:15 AM

Arathorn · 03-22-2002, 12:26 AM

Well then, I'd better make sure to win, because I want to keep my sword!

Xivigg · 03-22-2002, 02:29 AM

no one touch my sword and since it's not a fight to the death i'll be around after the fight even if i should somehow lose it

is your sword sharp ?? cause mine isn't it'll be hard to draw blood... more pain to you

Tanoliel · 03-22-2002, 02:40 AM

Ooooo, a fight...yummy!

btw, Eruviel's sword is a big honker that could be classified as a small broadsword...and yeah, it is kinda sharp ("still sharp!" Heehee...). Rogue Elf...I place five bucks on Eruviel. I'm going broke in spending money at the moment, otherwise i'd place more, darlin'.
Let it begin! *reaches over and steals a handful of Arathorn's popcorn* Wheee! Salty...

Eruviel Greenleaf · 03-22-2002, 02:43 AM

Well, my sword ain't that sharp, either, so more pain to you, Xivigg!!!

*bows even more dramatically to Xivigg, sword in hand*

Arathorn · 03-22-2002, 03:13 AM

THIEF! TANO! THIEF! We hates it for a long time!!! (Nots forever mind you, we needs to asks it for orange juices. Yessss...)

Ahh YESSS! A fights! We wish both get hits and falls asleeppsessss. We gets both preciousss weaponssessss yessssss!!

Tanoliel · 03-22-2002, 03:16 AM

orange juice? Haven't got any at the moment....but I could whip some up, I guess. Glad you don't hate me for-EVER..that's a long time, you know.

So, Eruviel....if you die, can I have your sword?

-tano

Arathorn · 03-22-2002, 03:21 AM
