the autumn days grow short and cold

Nov 27, 2009 09:17

So, for Thanksgiving, we had turkey, rolls, mashed potatoes and gravy, blaukraut, candied sweet potatoes, and acorn squash halves with sweet cinnamon-nutmeg sauce in the middle. And pumpkin pie for dessert, of course. All very delicious, but I was glad to see the day go. I love dinner, but Thanksgiving Day is dull as all get out. Barely anything is ( Read more... )

Okay, you know what, about your let's-describe-food thing. IT'S MAKING ME HUNGRY. *is so going to prepare an evening snack after this* :D

For the meme; Officeverse!POTC. That, or Pirates!ST:2009. Erm.

(I KNOW RIGHT)

AIJDFBAK;DGKAF; BLACK PEARL INC. Oh My God. Jack Sparrow would be the worst boss EVER. Or the best one. Depends. And Elizabeth! And Will! SUPERVISORS! I was hoping for officeboy!Will but THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER.

BARBOSSA ENTERPRISES. HA. AND THE BANNER. Oh, Jack. And the hat! We can't really forget that, can we?

Now all the world needs is to know where Tia Dalma and Davy Jones fit up in this universe and my life will be perfect.

I think I would adore Jack Sparrow as my boss. XD He'd confuse the hell out of me most of the time, but think of Casual Fridays!

Tia Dalma was the head of an almost-monopoly that the other businesses took out through underhanded means, and she retained a position as badass mafiosa boss-woman, looking covertly for a way to strike back at the people who took her down. Little did she know that her husband delivered blackmail goods to them as revenge for her constantly cheating on him with toy boys. Davy Jones got a taste for socially and financially ruining people, and has been doing so ever since, with help from his organization: Flying Dutchman.

I do not see Cranberry sauce...why don't I see that yummy, delicious red substance that is the bitterness of a Thanksgiving meal?

Oh..uhm.. Avatar/....Gargoyles.. because I think the ninja/pirate/anything else theme has been done that I'm aware of..

Oh damn. XD We had that, too, but I forgot to add it!

(For Avatar/Gargoyles, it would be ATLA cast AS gargoyles, since it's a theme meme, not a crossover meme.)

I didn't know you knew (and liked!) the black jewels trilogy!

Lucivar's favorite thing to do to Marion.

Sorry, I got this confused with a different meme.

The black jewels trilogy... in space.

"Captain Saetan, we have spotted a planet-sized body," stated a helmsman from his post. She fiddled with a few likely buttons before a display opened up, showing the crew on deck what looked to be a life-sustaining planet, glistening blue from oceans and brown-green with land and plant life ( ... )

Wow, this works... surprisingly well. I can just see the sleek black ship Saetan's captianing.

This was a blast to read.

Thanks! I think Saetan's ride would be astoundingly cool. He and Daemon would be sizing each other's ships and everything. XD

GAHHH I love squash so much *hungry now*

Animorphs in superhero universe.

...I also need to apologize for my lack of commenting on all the other squee meme fodder you've given me. I realized today that flailing at the replies in my inbox does nothing for you *facepalm*

"Quick, Hawkboy! Alert the other Animorphs!" commanded Jake Tiger, leader of the spandex-clad band of fighters. The Yeerks had attempted another bank robbery, for no definable reason other than that they could, and it was up to their little Justice League to save the day ( ... )

SMART-TALKING MONKEY MAN. Oh my gosh, I'm in my cubicle at work and trying so hard not to laugh loudly and roll on the floor I think my ears are bleeding.

I would SO read this comic book :D

Re: our heroes ivy_chan December 2 2009, 19:08:34 UTC
That has to be a name given to him by Rachel. You know she would. XD And yeah, this would be the crackiest comic book ever.

I thought of doing a Captain Planet parody, but then I thought naaaahhh. Too obvious.

...hopes you had a happy Thanksgiving despite the dullness and wonders:
What if Avatar were based off of Mexico around their 16th century invasion by Spain, as opposed to Ancient China?

Re: Lurks@Work ivy_chan December 3 2009, 15:12:20 UTC
This took a lot longer to think through than the other ones, hence the delay, and even now I don't know if I can only write a short fic of it. So let me just talk about it. XD ( ... )

...figured out too late that this might be a little too infolved for a quickie. Still, you analysis brings up a very cool scenario.
And, hey, the casting director for The Last Airbender will have an adequate amount of "white" people to look at with the European Spaniards involved.
