To the extent that my close friends actually know what I'm talking about when I say things like that. *g* Unfortunately, none of them are quite inclined to join the cause, even though they support it.

~Neshomeh, who only hangs out with cool geeky people.

I keep on having to stop myself from screaming "STU STU STU!!!" whenever I see people reading the Gold Brick at school (or "SUE SUE SUE!!!" at the sight of Twilight). And I jumped a little when I saw the word Manx when I was looking something up on Wikipedia (dunno what it was, though.)

And then there was the time when the New York Times spelled Tolkien "Tolkein." Glods, was I pissed off...

And then lots of occasions when I wish for Bleeprin loudly and ferverently. I get a lot of odd looks for that one.

This comic.
You may find it amusing. Sorry, saw the comment and thought of it immediately, couldn't resist. ^_^;;

I'm not a tremendous expert in either fandom, but I would say so - the Crucible seems to be a brute-force weapon, not relying on any of the subtleties of the Hammerverse. Also, the base elements of the weapon (human psychics, existence after death, and so on) exist in Pokemon.

Division of More Dakka's summary of the Crucible of Malediction:

"The Crucible of Malediction is a device shrouded in mystery as no one fully understands how they are made but each one contains the trapped spirits of tortured psykers. These are released onto the battlefield, causing a wave of psychic energy strong enough to harm enemy psykers. Often this drives them insane through psychic chattering."

Therefore, we would rule it a valid Dark-type attack. You might also wish to consider a Nemesis Force weapon, Psyk-Out grenades, or an Animus Speculum.

I usually just say that Bleeprin is brain bleach and removes bad memories. And everyone is like, "Where'd you get that? I want some!"

Yeah, we're wierd.

But I've heard that people have invented a drug in Real Life that can remove memories.

If I'd mentioned bleeprin, I could just explain it's a mixture of mental bleach and aspirin and no one would bat an eye. The people around me are like that...and so am I.

not sure. that's a dark elder device, right? I think it migth work, maybe.

The Board? Really?

I may have to adopt that one. :D

I once tried my hand at growing sunflowers. It was FUN-NEY.

At the San Diego Wild Animal Park, there's this resturant called "Thorntree Terrace". I laugh my arse off every time I visit. Reminds me of Jay.

I constantly talk about the Ironic Overpower, and there's a house near ours called "Acacia", and a road called "Canons Lane". And whenever I see sunflowers, I laugh my arse off. :P

I'll check all of these out - unfortunately, though, my teacher has just told me I can't do it, since I have to look only at the book. I'll definitely read them, though, since I'm looking for decent fanfic anyway. Thanks!

Would a Crucible of Malediction work on Psychic Pokemon? My next Non-Mission work (yes, I have reviewed the PPC policy towards Non-Mission writing, and I have asked if I could write new plot elements into the PPC Canon); which partly takes place in a Dreamscape, really needs this question answered.

Perhaps later...

I told my classmates not to tempt the Ironic Overpower on Friday, when one of them said 'at least Chemistry won't have as much maths in it'. It heard her. Four hours of maths is not funny; two of trigonometry and two of algebra, working out molar weights and concentrations.

If I see a geographical error in something printed, such as a paper, or the TV, I'll invoke DOGA.

And as a matter of fact, I often do say something - not explicitly mentioning the Ironic Overpower by name, but I've been known to say that the best way to make an elevator come is to get comfortable, to cringe when somebody says "At least ___ hasn't happened," and so on.

I also seem to remember mentally calling out for DOGA recently, but I have no idea what for. (Well, presumably a geographical aberration, but I don't know what kind or where.)

...with the wiki transfer and all that.

I remember reading something in a book or a poem...can't remember which...that mentioned acacia trees. Guess what the first thing I thought of was?

Yesterday I forgot a whole bunch of textbooks for a class, and a friend lent me her books saying, "Remember, it could always be worse." I had to resist the urge to bang my head against the nearest wall, and tell her not to tempt the Ironic Overpower. This happens a lot.
