Another entry is pending, though. But this time, it will be properly entered and dated, and then swiftly missioned.

...okay, relatively swiftly.

My favorite Modern deck is 8Rack. It makes my opponent discard their whole hand. Then it punishes them for not having any cards in their hand. I don't want them to play Magic or have fun.

Iodine, Xenon, Americium and Arsenic... I don't know what that combination would do, but I'm pretty sure we'd all end up dead.

Then again, since I've got Hydrogen, Uranium, Indium, Einsteinium(!), Oxygen and Radon, I don't really get to talk, do I?

hS (and Hs hassium isn't much better; its most stable isotope has a half-life of ten seconds...)

I won’t be able to share it until I get off work because of phones. Consider this a placeholder reminder to post it or you.

Though the way ITiNaZr doesn’t look at all like my name kind of amuses me, too.

Thanks!

IXeAmAs might be the best one. It's pronounced right, and if you allow 'ea' to be a variant transcription of the 'ih' sound, it's even spelt right provided you don't have access to the letter Z. :D

... NaH.

Or: they say the noble gasses don't react, but neon and flerovium come together just FiNe.

(Is this where I start element-spelling everyone's names? ~Hs (=hassium))

See, I was also considering the Portal 2 Curiosity Core for probably more or less the same reasons. ^_^;

That video is much too angry to be you. :P

Try this one on for size?

I don't have a good answer for myself. Maybe Chemistry Cat, because cats and puns and science, but I don't do chemistry. hS does chemistry.

Or maybe this video? (NSFW: swearing.) It's not really a meme, but it should be. ^_^

~Neshomeh

I don't know. Probably.

Also, at least for knights who reached Konti-Nyuum on the Hyparlink Route via the harbor of Mei'n Payj, travelling the Vaybek Road to sail against the Marizu from Mei'n Payj is an actual way back. It’s not the pun I initially hoped for, but it works too.

I’m just not sure whether the Vaybek Road "connects Los Taelis to the Hyparlink Route at Manyuel" or whether the Vaybek Road runs from Los Taelis via Manyuel to Mei'n Payj, and the part of it between Manyuel and Mei'n Payj is coincidentally a part of the Hyparlink Route. (In the latter case, other parts of the Hyparlink Route might also get regional names, but I’m afraid we’ll run out of names before we run out of geographical features to name.)

Sounds pretty smart. Pretty professional and cool and such. I'll probably use that.

Alternately, I could just go as it flows and call them whatever I decide to call them at the time. And as I run out of things to call them, the titles will be synonyms stretched further and further, be generally more and more stupid, until it just kind of ends up as word salad.
As all good things ought to be!

I always figured that the spatial dimensions of HQ were the sort of thing a mortal mind isn't really meant to try fathoming - that if you measured just how deep the dark stairs going down to the ground floor go, you'd conclude that they're twenty-five kilometres above the rest of HQ, and fifty leagues west from where you started. And then your measuring device would evaporate in your hand. Or so on.
I'm sure it's sort of... floating around all those other places.
Which might all be cop-out excuses, but they're all pretty fun ones!

I also figured at least some of the trash there just kinda piled up, flooding out of that little trash dimension in that closet. Probably didn't make that very clear, though, did I?

And no worries, it's not like it's a particularly intelligent story, either!

The spooky question is, is where does the ground floor exit out onto, eh? EH?

Swiss, per fess sanguine and vert, a sword argent point dexter, a bow and arrow argent, a fess upper edge embattled party per pale Or and azure, a wolf sable and a badger proper combatant.

Saved by the fact that you're allowed to divide an ordinary. This would have been much easier were there such an ordinary as a Base (the opposite of a Chief), but there doesn't seem to be. Instead, what you've got is technically a horizontally-divided shield, with a vertically-divided fess running across it.

Since you specified dark red, you get Sanguine; I'm sure there are other stains I could have used (the US military uses 'crimson' as a variant of gules), but so far Plort has managed to stick to just sanguine, tenne, and celeste, so.
