It was closed because nobody was getting it, and I was the only judge around even expressing interest, and Spock asked me if I'd like him to close it, and I said go ahead, and then... The Padlock Fell. Then not ten minutes later Nurvingiel realised it even existed in the first place, but by then it was too late. I did NOT request it to be closed, Spock offered and I said please do, because no one was taking it seriously and it was truly annoying. And Grey Wolf isn't around lately, either. Maybe Grey Wolf can open it again when he comes back, if people are actually going to take it seriously and play instead of fill it up with spam and act dumb.

That's a good comic! There was one in The Desert Sun (the coachella valley newspapar, like the LA Times except more friendly and personal as far as I could tell), and that cat gave his owner a hug and then asked for money like a salesperson.

I LOVE Get Fuzzy! I forgot it was one of my favourite comics, until I picked up a Sunday Los Angeles Times today and came across it again in the comics section. Love that cat.

LOL! "You're just wrong..." I love it! What a revelation! That's what I should say to those who say they know what I'm thinking or say exactly what I thought. Thanks, Lotesse, you just gave me another great idea! *moot hug*

Yeah, that's pretty good...malpropisms can be pretty funny (there I go, showing off my superior vocabulary )

Why hello, there! Want something to drink, or eat? Have you seen the decor here; if you go back like 5 or 6 pages you'll be able to see all the art I put up on the walls, and the SkyBar patio - the Teacup is a huge virtual building-place...

Welcome to the Moot and to the Cafe Olorin! Have a frequent customer card. Buy ten regular coffees or teas, and you get a special order on the house!

Mmm, Lotesse brought chocolates... she's my favourite now. *gives Lotesse a frequent customer card with nine stamps on it already*

Yeah, the idea probably wasn't so good after all and me going off to the Gothenburg Book Fair and being gone for 2 and ½ days from the Moot didn't mend matters I guess.

I do wonder why I see the name Belgium pop up more often than any other European country in this sort of gags and other conversations. Does Belgium has some freaky, off-wordly reputation on the other side of the ocean that I'm not aware of?

Just wondering.

You might want to check out this site. Particularly the part about the nonexistence of Belgium...
(Did you already post in the "It's on the Internet..." thread? I can't remember)
