...(nm) is what the Board technology automatically puts after the subject line, if there is only a subject line and no message. So when someone types (nm) into their subject line and doesn't put in a message, the Board still adds (nm) and you get (nm) (nm)
Well, as you can tell, I'm new here. And, I can't be bothered to write something out as if I were on an online dating website! So... HI!
...well, first off, welcome.
But, uh, back to my original thought! Out of curiosity, why did you change your selected handle mid-thread? That's bound to confuse people, and not just people like me who've been out of the loop a bit too long.
I only just saw the "Change Settings" button mid-thread. And it could only confuse people up to the point that they're as confused as I am in everyday life. But, no more changes.
P.S. I didn't like the old handle anyway.
I deduce that you are a fairly lazy person. You should prepare to fit right in. (With me, in any case)
Or, considering that I'm extremely late in this little hello, you should have prepared to have been fitted in by now.
Or something.
SO YEAH. Welcome to the club, Mr. Button. Have a scarf. It's hand knitted out of electric blue yak wool and it's about three feet too long for you. Enjoy it, and hopefully being here. Ciao!
Nice! And, yes. I am lazy. I was supposed to work after school today, but Mum said I needn't bother come in, because there wasn't much for me to do there. And I should be doing Economics homework right now. Then again, I have until Monday...
Welcome to the PPC Posting Board! Here, have some chocolate, and enjoy your stay!
CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE! *goes all chocolate crazy like that guy in SpongeBob*
Here, have a DRAMATIC LONGCOAT! They're often found in anime continuums. Even if there's no wind, the DRAMATIC LONGCOAT will flutter DRAMATICALLY!
Longcoats, eh? From anime? I dun normally watch anime. I should start doing that, shouldn't I?
You don't need to watch animes or anything. Mostly, the longcoat's just supposed to be cool. *Poses draatically*
Hmm, nice fit! It feels a bit heavy, but no heavier than my school bag (can't be bothered using a locker/doesn't have the key)!
I'm also trying to read Discworld. Unfortunately, the school library doesn't have a SINGLE full series inside it. Not even Harry Potter is complete! *is pissed off at school library*
Bleepka I've heard of. Bleepolate, not so much...
I quote the wiki:
"Bleepolate: Bleeprin and chocolate. Invented by Boarder Artic Blade, for those who want their oblivion without the hangover."
"NM&NMs: Bleepolate M&Ms that come in bleen, blello, urple, and wilver. These are created whenever someone types (nm) into the title line of a post containing no message on the Board, because the Board adds the (nm) automatically anyway."
And the list of Bleeprin derivatives can be found here: http://ppc.wikia.com/wiki/Bleeprin
Enjoy!
I have a feeling that Bleepolate could come in handy! *grabs Bleepolate greedily*
Have a special orange.
Is it antigravity?
You'll have to find out for yourself, won't you? *cackle*
Hello! Have a seventeen foot long, multicolored, wool, knit scarf (curly wig not included), and a bag of jelly babies.
Please use them IRresponsibly!
Now a Disclaimer: You do not have to read these things (except the Board Constitution). You do not have to write to be a part of the PPC. Some active and respected PPCer's have never been to the wiki, and quite a few very active and respected PPCer's have not and never plan to write missions. That said, many people have found these things to be useful and/or to answer a lot of the questions that often come up.

Fortunately, I've edited wikis before, I've read as much of the Original PPC Fics as I could manage, and I have been lurking the wiki since the MOMENT Katie directed me there. Thanks anyway! *bookmarks page for further reference*
Welcome, new friend! Have a Benjamin Button. It starts out old and dirty, but gets newer and shinier with age. Then it turns into unmolded plastic.
Here, have a conical hat! It's made from tin foil and duct tape. It keeps the conspiracy theorists out.
You mean, it keeps the American Government out of my thoughts? BRILLIANT! *grabs tinfoil hat and puts it on head* Now I just need a fake Horse's lower half (E.g. the part neck-down) and I'll be like Foaly!
made out of two axes strapped together with USB cables.
Fair winds!
Now you can throw your own BBQ parties!
Don't feed it Sues or Stus
I can feed it... Eh, stuff? Like, stuff from the Cafeteria? Because I wouldn't make my worst enemy suffer through that. But, like, raw meat?
Welcome to the PPC! Have a bag of pebbles and a Random Shiny Object, useful for distracting people and Sues!
SHINYSHINYSHINYSHINY! GIMMEGIMME--I mean, ooh, shiny! AND PEBBLES! I LOVE BAGS OF PEBBLES BECAUSE I LOVE PEBBLES!
Have a pet cat, a top hat and a doormat.
How did you stumble into the PPC here, anyway?
A friend told me so. Oh, and if you see a guy named "Yu" floating around chat, chances are it's me.
Stargate (All three series), Star Trek (All seven stories), Babylon 5, Star Wars, NCIS, Half-Life 2 (Since when do THEY pop up!? Except in the case of Concerned, which DEFINITELY counts!), ehhhhh... Fringe? And so on and so forth. Even though I don't really read fanfic, they still count because they all rule. Epically.
Yay for more Sci-fi tv show fans!
DID I MENTION DOCTOR WHO!?!?
Well, I can't really judge Classic!Who based on what's in the DW Wiki... But I do know I love New!Who
Please enjoy this Floating Skull™. It gives your bedroom an air of evilness and can be also used to open cans thanks to its hidden can opener. Regretfully, the can opener is so well hidden that I don't know where it is.
Eh, Floating Skull... Nice! I would put it in my room, but Mum would wonder where I got it... Ah well! Maybe I could keep it in my OTHER room... But then DAD would wonder where it came from... My phone?
Put it in any room and tell your mom that your dad gave it to you or vice versa
But then Mum will ask Dad about it, and he'll deny all knowledge, and vice versa. OOH, UPRISING IS ON THE RADIO! *turns radio up*
*glares evilly at Tawaki*
You were just the first person to do (nm)... Which I thought was a bit silly, but then I got some NM&NM's out of it all!
...(nm) is what the Board technology automatically puts after the subject line, if there is only a subject line and no message. So when someone types (nm) into their subject line and doesn't put in a message, the Board still adds (nm) and you get (nm) (nm)
Have this polka-dotted rock.
Polka-rock! Hehehe! Everyone, take some Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters and Bleepka *has sources of these* and drink up! *loves Bleepka*
Polka will never die! [/reference]
*is confused* GIMME THE BLEEPKA!
Have some fudge!
YOU KNOW WHAT TO CALL ME! Ooh, goody! Fudge! *noms fudge* Almost as good as Mummy's fudge! Speaking of which, where is Mum? She's normally home for lunch and back to work by now... Ah, well! I'll solve it later!
Have a toothbrush and tube of acid toothpaste! (Best used on Sues only.)
Ooooooh, acid toothpaste! This could come in handy! Now, then... Eh, anyone know some good PPC fanfics involving Stargate, or Half-Life, or something? I hate to sound demanding, but I can't help it! *needs to stop using exclamation marks*
demanding you are, my young friend. Finding something you can't, hmm... "sigh" say welcome I would, tell you the force with you, I would, but nooooo... must demand "sigh" an interesting story I have for you, yes yes, an intrigueing story it is.... but if like it you don't... look you should, stare at fanfiction.net you should.
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3512724/1/GodsofDarkandLight
go... and may the force be with... always...
HELLO Welcome to the Board. Here, have a small wooden elephant, a green jelly bean, and...uh...this interesting piece of lint!
(This is Katie, in case you couldn't tell xD)
The username gave it away, BTW!
