Triad, psychic brokers, and mutant Dopey

May 04, 2005 22:23

UTTER NONSENSE AHEAD.

Read on if you want to know

-- why Ri advertised for psychic brokers (at the bottom of the post);
-- what the heck is the "highly criminal Triad" all about;
-- why she said on that same entry, On a completely non-related note: Pen is dopey and a mutant :P.
If you're in a hurry, you can skip the small-fonted lines in these transcripts. :)

Nitya, the Triad welcomes people with special powers! Like the X-Men. :D

The “Triad” is born

Apr 27 2005 chat

Pen (4:22:20 AM): Btw, Ri, you haven't emailed me that chat transcript ... about Darkwing Duck? I'll probably use DD as my LJ avatar. :D

Ri (4:23:01 AM): *headdesk* I'll e-mail it to you in a sec!

Pen (4:23:42 AM): tsk tsk, such terrible memory. What chemical does your brain lack that has affected your memory?

Ri (4:24:21 AM): I have a very good memory, Pen. But the harder I try to remember something, the more likely I am to forget it
Ri (4:24:42 AM): It is selective in a very weird way. And there's the fact that I never hear what any of you say

Pen (4:24:41 AM): I remember telling Nielle some long-ago Mod action I did. Then I asked, "What is it in my diet that makes me remember these things?" Sometimes my memory amazes me. :P
Pen (4:25:56 AM): Ri, we ought to team up sometime in RL. My memory's visual, yours is auditory (is that the adjective?). People had better pay any debts they owe us, or else we'd remember to hunt them down!
Pen (4:26:20 AM): Hm, yep, we could be a collecting agency! With an MD to boot! Woo!

Romy (4:26:29 AM): *cowers* I'll remember not to be in debt with you two

Ri (4:27:00 AM): *giggles* We must form a Eurasian Triad or something!

Pen (4:27:19 AM): Triad? :))
Pen (4:28:15 AM): Romy will handle all PR work. :D

Ri (4:28:30 AM): We should involve Nielle. Simply because she's evil.

Pen (4:28:36 AM): 'Course!

Romy (4:29:07 AM): PR... What was that again?

Ri (4:29:15 AM): Public Relations
Ri (4:29:35 AM): You arrange for us to look pretty on the "WANTED" posters :P

Pen (4:29:44 AM): What a team -- an MD, a journalist, a finance person, and Miss Evil herself!
Ri got PR right. Publicity, communications.

Romy (4:29:45 AM): Oh, right. I can join only if it doesn't have to do with World Domination, I'm already booked for that one
Romy (4:30:09 AM): *laughs* And we cover 4 continents!

Ri (4:30:13 AM): No, no, that's only a side project

Pen (4:30:16 AM): Wanted, dead or alive, preferably dead!
Pen (4:30:35 AM): We sound like the Power Puff Girls :D

Romy (4:30:57 AM): Haha you just lowered our IQ in 10 points

Pen (4:31:14 AM): Geez, what's left of my IQ? :D

Ri (4:31:23 AM): Indeed. Don't you every say something like that again, I still need my wits till July

Romy (4:31:36 AM): Talking about IQ, I've never known which is the media...

Pen (4:31:46 AM): media?

Romy (4:31:59 AM): I mean which is the normal IQ?
Romy (4:32:41 AM): I found a report from Kindergarten with my IQ in "north american standard" /:) But it doesn't say anything to me

Ri (4:33:00 AM): 120-140 is normal, I think

Pen (4:33:04 AM): I dunno. All I know is studies show mine is likely dropping. :D

Romy (4:33:25 AM): With conversations like the one we are having now, surely :P

Pen (4:33:39 AM): I don't know what my IQ is.

Romy (4:34:16 AM): Off topic: I miss my partner in Modly Apocalypse. I never feel like editing signatures anymore, and most members should have them edited.

Ri (4:34:43 AM): Yeah, that is right. I haven't found a single one worshipping me :P

Romy (4:35:04 AM): :)) Well, that too

Pen (4:35:11 AM): Oh that's right, you two always referred to a "Modly Apocalypse". Ri, sigs worshipping you?

Ri (4:35:52 AM): Am I not worship-worthy? :((

Pen (4:35:54 AM): I think not even Nielle expected to find any sigs worshipping her. :))

Romy (4:36:32 AM): Maybe she didn't expected them, but she surely would have liked them :D

Ri (4:37:56 AM): I should change my sig to proclaim that I worship her, then!

Btw, after Ri changed her Portkey.org sig to "I worship Nielle", I briefly changed mine to "I admire many people, including [many names]!" :D


Ri’s ad for psychic brokers, and why Pen is a Mutant Dopey

MAY 3 2005 chat

Pen (9:01:46 PM): Hi. I'm doing something that reminded me of our tallying work. :D I'm getting eyestrain counting # of companies listed in a printed directory.That's all. :D

Ri (9:02:17 PM): Which is worse? Our tallying or coutning companies? :D

Pen (9:04:22 PM): Our tallies. :D
[For my current task, I’m writing] down the name [of] every 10th company, and … the running total at that point. So I'd keep track of where I paused my counting. I'm talking/counting thousands of companies in each USA state
[I should've said “in the entire USA” - Pen 4May2005]

Ri (9:04:52 PM): Ouch. Sound like, er, fun? :P

Pen (9:05:12 PM): :D Well, I get paid for it.

Ri (9:05:25 PM): That's always a plus

Pen (9:05:33 PM): It was my idea in the first place. Me and my big mouth!

Ri (9:06:30 PM): Well, in German, if somebody asks "Who'll do it", you're very likely to get the answer "always whoever asks" :D Very fitting, IMO

Pen (9:06:55 PM): Good thing I'm not in Germany!

Ri (9:07:02 PM): :D

Pen (9:07:38 PM): I remember you saying you shout "5! 15!" while tallying.:D I don't do that here.

Ri (9:08:02 PM): Well, it's really helpful, though!

Pen (9:08:21 PM): Not for me.

Ri (9:08:39 PM): Oh well, your loss, then :P

Pen (9:08:48 PM): :))

Pen (9:09:40 PM): I've already counted 298 companies in 9 states; 42 states more to go.

Ri (9:10:14 PM): How long do you think that'll take you?

Pen (9:11:03 PM): :D Dunno, maybe 20-30 mins more. Total of 40 mins, probably

Ri (9:11:31 PM): Oh. Well, that's fast, then. Sounds like the kind of work that takes ages to complete

Pen (9:12:39 PM): Bank tellers can probably do this [counting] in 10 mins. :P I've worked for a bank but not as a teller. I never handled bills and coins

Ri (9:12:54 PM): Bank tellers must be psychics, then

Pen (9:13:07 PM): :))
Pen (9:14:09 PM): Psychics (did we spell that right?) would make good currency/fixed income traders. :))
Pen (9:14:53 PM): Yep, we spelled it right.

Ri (9:15:12 PM): Imagine what money could be made with a psychic Wall Street broker! Pen, we must absolutely employ one for our triad stuff!

Pen (9:15:35 PM): Absolutely!
Pen (9:16:21 PM): Go advertise for one!!! Or maybe something will trigger our psychic powers. Like mutation. (Been watching X-Men movies again :P)

Ri (9:17:02 PM): Mutation? Ouch. I know the X-Men movies, but right now, we're in the middle of genetics at Uni. Mutation is not my favourite word atm :P

Pen (9:17:16 PM): Very timely nonetheless!

Ri (9:17:34 PM): That's true

Pen (9:17:56 PM): My timing must be due to some psychic powers!!!

Ri (9:18:28 PM): So you are already a mutant?

Pen (9:18:47 PM): =))

Ri (9:19:21 PM): Oh, I wonder what Chromosome it is that contains the psychic gene!

Pen (9:19:54 PM): I wish I had Wolverine's advanced self-healing powers though. I had a small cut or abrasion on my arm? Didn't bleed, but it looks ugly.

Ri (9:21:03 PM): You don't even wanna know what my feet look like... I went shopping yesterday and decided to wear stilettos, for some idiotic reason.

Pen (9:21:31 PM): :D

Ri (9:22:09 PM): *is working on the advertisement for a psychic wall street broker*

Pen (9:22:40 PM): You and Romy handle the advertising. :D

Ri (9:23:09 PM): I'm working on it

Pen (9:23:42 PM): So let's see, we've got powerful visual and audio-based memories, then we'll add psychic powers. Plus Nielle's Evil-ness and Romy's PR work. :D

Ri (9:24:33 PM): And combined, we speak one hellofalot of languages!

Pen (9:25:06 PM): :D And we cover 4 continents!!!! The Mutants are taking over the world, hahaha!!!

Ri (9:25:53 PM): *evil and sinister look* Who do you think will be the most evil of us all?

Pen (9:26:13 PM): What will be our motto? "We'll understand your swearing in whatever language!" :D
Pen (9:26:25 PM): Most Evil? Nielle of course.

Ri (9:27:05 PM): Er, wait, that's not what I meant!
Ri (9:27:16 PM): "Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the most evil of them all?"

Pen (9:27:28 PM): :))

Ri (9:30:44 PM): We need to get rid of Snowwhite, though.

Pen (9:31:27 PM): Aw, who can we tease if not Snow White?

Ri (9:32:02 PM): Each other?

Pen (9:32:10 PM): that could be Nielle or Romy's code name. They're so pale, they're almost as white as snow. :D
I do have a cousin whom we nicknamed Snow White for that reason.

Ri (9:32:40 PM): They'll be so happy about that nickname :D

Pen (9:33:15 PM): Can you suggest a better one? :P Nielle's LJ icon is Snow White's evil stepmom, right?

Ri (9:33:40 PM): Yes
Ri (9:33:51 PM): We can't call them both Snow White

Pen (9:34:06 PM): Well, how about Snow White and Snow Whiter?

Ri (9:34:22 PM): Wait, no the icon is actually Maleficent from "Sleeping Beauty"
Ri (9:34:37 PM): But who is who?

Pen (9:35:28 PM): Only Nielle and Romy can answer who is White and Whiter. (Jeez, that sounded like Dumb and Dumber.)

Pen (9:34:42 PM): I can be Dopey, I've always liked him. :D
Oh, Sleeping Beauty. I'm mixing up my Disney characters.

Ri (9:35:58 PM): Who is Dopey? And do you really want to have such a nickname?

Pen (9:36:36 PM): Dopey's the only dwarf without a beard. He can't talk. I don't mind the nickname. :D

Ri (9:36:57 PM): Ah, him!
Ri (9:37:02 PM): Who am I, then, though?

Pen (9:37:44 PM): Eh, the problem with Snow White is that she and her stepmom are the only female characters there. Perhaps we can borrow other Disney characters. Me Mulan?
Pen (9:37:53 PM): Or Belle? Ariel?

Ri (9:37:57 PM): And me Merrywheather!
Ri (9:38:03 PM): *Merryweather

Pen (9:38:10 PM): Who's Merryweather? What film?

Ri (9:38:42 PM): Sleeping Beauty. She's one of the three fairies. The Blue one.

Pen (9:39:02 PM): Oh, another Sleeping Beauty character!
Pen (9:38:42 PM): although at the moment I should be called Count Dracula.

Ri (9:39:00 PM): Why that? Are you drinking blood?

Ri (9:39:04 PM): Or because you're up at night

Pen (9:39:30 PM): :D No, Count Dracula in Sesame Street? The vampire who likes to count everything? 1! 2!
Pen (9:40:06 PM): I always thought he was called Count Dracula.
[Found out later that he’s called Count von Count. :P ~Pen 4May2005]

Ri (9:40:11 PM): I never watched Sesame Street, sorry

Pen (9:40:29 PM): :D
Pen (9:41:17 PM): Spoke with Jennifer this morning (12 hours ago). She misses you. :)

Ri (9:42:45 PM): Is she back from her RL break?
Pen (9:42:58 PM): Yep

Ri (9:43:51 PM): Well, I miss her too.

Pen (9:43:47 PM): http://pbskids.org/sesame/number/3.html
That's Count Dracula beside "number of the day".

Ri (9:44:56 PM): Ah, I've seen Count Dracula, then.
Ri (9:53:50 PM): http://www.livejournal.com/users/szaranea/38614.html
Ri (9:53:55 PM): <- I advertised :D

Pen (9:54:19 PM): *clicks*

Ri (9:54:29 PM): The picture

Pen (9:55:12 PM): =))
Pen (9:55:23 PM): about the ad

Ri (9:55:33 PM): I guessed

Pen (10:26:06 PM): Our Triad ought to plot how to get that money! We can't call ourselves the Eurasian Triad though. gotta reflect our 4 continents.

Pen (10:29:12 PM): Warning, I'll sound parental!
Pen (10:29:19 PM): What about your studying?

Ri (10:29:21 PM): Okay
Ri (10:29:32 PM): Er, um. I probably should be studying right now
Ri (10:32:54 PM): at least, according to my mum

Pen (10:33:06 PM): :D No problem, I have 9 more states to go. Take care!

Ri (10:33:17 PM): Okay. Bye *hugs*
