(I'm in a bit of a Harry Potter fan craze, so that might explain the costumes, I hope.)

Eesa and Sive strolled into the party. Sive was dressed as the female Draco Malfoy from "A Very Potter Musical" and Eesa had decided to go as Bellatrix Lestrange. Together, they held a life-size Mary Sue piñata filled with candy.

"We thought a party couldn't be complete without a piñata, so we brought one instead of alcohol," explained Sive simply.

Everybody could hear the fake Bono yelling. What' and South couldn't help laughing.
"Sorry, we left our beloved Vulcan at home and he's the only one who can make that guy stop," said 'Adam'.

Anything that reminds one of that travesty of a "romance" series SHOULD be nuked. Just to save us all having post-traumatic flashbacks. -_-;

FWIW, neither polygamy nor combining parents' names is really a Mormon thing. Possibly you're thinking of some of the spinoff churches?

Maudlin, being silly, runs through the door and shouts, "And I'm all out of bubble gum! Er... I brought Nightmare Revisited! Who's got a CD player?"

In the Real World? Nope, it's extremely unlikely. See Darwin's Origin of Species for a much more in-depth discussion of why hybrid animals tend to be sterile.

In a sci-fi canon, however, it depends. If we're talking, say, Star Trek, then hybrids are possible even when it makes my brain hurt (eg Vulcan copper-based blood not causing any problems with Human blood). If it's a sci-fi continuum with no hybrids, then it'd be a no. I'm trying to think if there are any hybrids in Doctor Who canon, and drawing a blank.

Mind you, I suppose there was that woman and that cat in Gridlock. But I'd rather not touch the biology of that one with a ten foot pole because it makes my inner biologist cry.

A pumpkin waddles into the room, stopping every now and then as if resting its tired legs. Small flippers can be seen beneath its orange bulk when it stands, and the top opens occasionally to reveal a black and white head poking a beak out of the seemingly hollow shelter.

Of course this is all nonsense. Pumpkins don't move. And penguins most definitely wouldn't hide in them. With this in mind, why are you even imagining this? You must be insane.

Humans and Gallifreyans could be genetically similar enough to produce offspring, but if you go by RW biology, they'd be as fertile as a mule or a liger, i.e. not at all.

"Hey, hope we're not screwing the party by just being there," said Krisprolls
What' laughed. "Well, it only works during our birthdays. So, what do you want to dress up in?"
"U2!!!" said Krisp. "I'm Bono!"
"Well, I ain't tall enough to be no other than Larry, so that means there won't be no Adam," said South.
"What, does that mean you want me to be The Edge? I'm not Vulcan enough."
"So you're telling us you agree with those whacky fans who completely believe Bono's bullshit? Oh, don't worry, I do too. By the way, you can be Adam, and we'll tell the other people in the room our dear Vulcan is WORKING RIGHT NOW FOR FECK'S SAKE. DAMN VULCAN." Krisp was now completely involved in his role.
Five minutes later, Bono, Adam and Larry entered the party room.
"HELLO HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" said Krisp.

of species (from wikipedia): "a group of organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring of both genders" Or as I remember from my biology lesson: different species don't interbreed and produce fertile offspring (mules, and such).

So, unless Gallifreyans are a human race (and not a different species) the Doctor could get it on with Sarah Jane's cousin, they could possibly have biological offspring, but those kids would be sterile.

On the other hand, scifi likes to ignore this definition of species and create multibrids all over the place (remember half-Klingon B'Elanna who had a baby?)

In one of the Doctor novels the Doctor was said to have a human mother. If you take that as canon, then canon further implies that the Doctor can have off-spring and isn't sterile.

Agents, Boarders, Flowers, and Random Persons welcome. Bring bleeprin, bleepolate, bleepka, and any non-bleep confections or alcohol that interests you. In true PPC style, anyone dressing up as a Mary Sue will be shot.

*starts abusing the use of her RC portal generator to snitch appropriate decorations and theme-setting Creepy Items from various continua*

Could the Doctor and a Human have viable offspring? One Sue seems to be the Doctor's daughter by the other, Sarah Jane's cousin.

I know the novelization of The Five Doctors mentions David and Susan having children, but I don't know if that's canon. Besides, they could just be adopted.

Forgive the emoticon, but that's all I can say. I dunno, though. There's plenty of people who think that Ebony/Enoby Dark'Ness Dementia Raven/Tara Way isn't a troll. I think she is, but...
-M'n'M, confuzzled

Also, all of the main universes have massive infodumps that go on about their storylines in the first "book", if I remember correctly. And a lot of the canon characters used are just the character in physical description only. A lot of them have had their names and personalities completely changed.

By Mormon undertones, I pretty much mean just the whole polygamy thing and the fact that the Otherworld "tradition" of naming children is to combine the parents' names.

When I saw the kid naming thing, it instantly reminded me of "Twilight". :<br>

Don't use it as an excuse. Have the courage of your convictions, and argue them as your own. If you want to argue, I'll happily have that row. But don't use your Asperger's as an excuse for your own thoughts.

*is cowed*

Sorry. I wasn't saying my Asperger's was a catch-all excuse. I said I wasn't even certain if it was to blame.

I'm... I'm sorry. *vanishs*

Apology accepted for the time being, but I'd like to make a sweeping general statement for the future.

Most people on here see my livejournal; they've an idea of who I am. They could tell you without batting an eyelid that I am an angry drunk. (hS I know will back me up here as we're still Not Speaking; I expect others could too.) Anyone who follows my lj will also know very well that one of my Rage Buttons is sexual abuse in any form. Though I'd rather not, I know full well I've a reputation in these PPC parts for being an obstreperous and argumentative drunk.

You've already denied the legitimacy behind the primary source of my obstinacy and obstreperousness. According to you, I should have just "got over it". I could fill several dozen posts about why, quite simply, you're WRONG in that these things can simply be "got over". However, I feel this is a conversation for another day, and a conversation that does not need to be had in such a public forum.

I will, however, ask, quite sincerely, that you NOT use your Asperger's to excuse your total lack of trigger warnings, and to not exculpate yourself of all blame for the cuts and bruises I currently sport after having innocently clicked your first post in this thread without due warning. Yes, it was satisfying, beating the shit out of a wall and ripping my knuckles to shreds and causing myself enough physical pain that I couldn't focus on anything mental. But I don't want to be in that head state. And, so far as you've said, I've no ...ing business being in that head state, I should have got over this shit twenty years ago.

I have not yet got over this shit. According to you I should have, and I am sorry to disappoint, but until you can handle the fact that I am not, alas, able to fit your pretty happy view of all the world's weirdnesses in boxes, then I am not going to happily smile and nod while you use your Asperger's to accuse me of crying wolf, belittle a ridiculously large percentage of the world's population, walk into the standard privileged white male trap, and while you tell me that I should just suck it up and deal with it because you poor boys have so many problems too.

tl;dr: Will you put a ...ing trigger warning on it next time? Because I do not need to read this bile over breakfast.

Grrr. *slitty eyes* Keep your messed-up hands off my religion, bub. If I were writing missions... I would tackle that one, ten billion chapters and all. Religious fury aside, wouldn't it be great fun to have an excuse to bluescreen somebody's universe? It's not like it's a canon universe, nobody cares if you nuke it, right? :D :D :D

OTOH, I'm only really familiar with one of those series, and that's Rurouni Kenshin. But then, lack of familiarity with a series never stopped me from reading fanfic before... ;)

Also, I apologised as well.

a general statement to everyone.
