aladdin shows some arabic pride;

[thatrapscallion]

You know, there's been a lot of craziness on these pages lately, and the primary byproduct I've been noticing is that the Aesopeans have been placed up on some sort of pedestal as the 'best' Tale group.

Now, I don't want to stir anything up - the Aesopeans are a perfectly boring nice group of Tales. Some of my best friends are Aesopeans, I swear!

But I can neither spell nor pronounce most of the Arabic names!

Plus Eddie's right - Noah is smokin' hot. Hot like a pop tart.

[thatrapscallion]

That only lends to our exotic charm! I mean, sure, its easy to spell 'dog', but it's awfully lacking in any sort of pizazz.

Come on, Velvet is way up on Noah! And I'm even coming at the issue from a totally gender-impartial angle, my hand to god!

[windmill_tilter]

Yeah, but I'm NOT gender-impartial! I like guys! A lot!

[thatrapscallion]

Well then why would you go for an old guy like Noah when you've got a young buck like myself right here, offering to lavish attention upon you! Is Noah offering you this? Is he doing it, perhaps, in private? Because I certainly see no such thing in the public forum.

Us Arabics are all about that sort of prompt service!

[naturewill]

So, what, the Arabics are some kind of escort service, Murdock?

[thatrapscallion]

I can't help it if we're so particularly desirable to the opposite sex! It's merely a matter of supply and demand, nothing else.

[naturewill]

Gotcha. Sounding ever close like a pimp and his Arabian whores, Murdock. Not really a good thing.

[thatrapscallion]

I prefer harem

Why do you feel the need to objectify women with such terminology, Mister Connell? I find it awfully inappropriate, especially coming from a figure of authority such as yourself! I was trying to have an innocent dialogue and I'd prefer to keep it clean of such derogatory expletives.

If you please, sir.

[naturewill]

HA.

HA

And one last time: HA

[windmill_tilter]

Well then what're you waiting for? Lavish away!

[thatrapscallion]

You're the hot rocker girl from a while back, aren't you? Took off to bum around Europe?

I think we might have hooked up once

[windmill_tilter]

Aww, you sweet thang! You remember! Yeah, that'd be me.

[thatrapscallion]

Madame, the day that Murdock Varletti forgets a beautiful girl is the day he lays down and dies.

How was the trip? Welcome back!

[windmill_tilter]

It was a good trip - until they realized my visa was expired. Damn the man. Those Europeans, oi, they have some strange ideas. I'm never going back to France. Amsterdam, however, that was a blast. And I could live in Ireland. But alas, all good things, ya know.

Then again, if I were still in Ireland, I wouldn't be here enjoying all this GODDAMN FREEZING WEATHER.

[thatrapscallion]

Well, in fairness, its not like Ireland is in the heart of the tropics itself. Generally it experiences pretty miserable weather too! At least it did back when I used to live there, working as a junior chemist to perfect the Guinness brewing process.

[windmill_tilter]

Riiiiiiight.

In Ireland, though, being cold and wet is a CULTURE. Here I just feel like a failed Eskimo.
