So what about your designs you've shown around on imageboards (or something like that)?

It's a joke, HF, if you couldn't tell by the tone of the 'admission'. I always wanted to do a joke like that; got inspired by Stephen Colbert's book I Am America, And So Can You, and how he jokingly wrote in it that he dictates to a writer to compose the book. You know something like that's to be taken in jest.

I just realized why there's no "Paper Man" in the Rockman Universe: If Rockman tried to go after him first, it'd be impossible to win.

Ahah! Hah! Haaaaah!

Kill me. It hurts to live.

1. That was a really stupid joke

2. I'm getting pretty confused about who's who around here thanks to that damn avatar!

Whatever could you be talking about? I can distinguish among the four five of us juuuuust fine.

I suppose that joke does deserve a curtsy laugh. Along with 3 claps. Cute.

Wah! That's what my baby sister said too =*(

but I was actually kind of serious, though =....(

*decides to keep kicking the whipped dog (but only in the Japanese version)*
There's Rockman, there's Cut Man (for scissors), but why no Paper Man? That truly has perplexed me for years.

And for years it never made sense to me how Rockman is based on Rock Paper scissors, yet Rockman the robot does not shoot rocks. His power should be ROCKS. I mean, he has the Rock Buster, which possibly could be use for busting rocks, but that'd make HIM the Paper Man. But then, I realized...

Have you noticed that when you play "Rock Paper Scissors", you always start the game out as "Rock", and then you choose whether to deviate from that or not once the "shoot" command is given? MMMHMMM chew on that for a minute.

Precisely why I thought it was cute at first. Although, a baby sister that's into Megaman? Intriguing.

I used to imagine rocks when I thought of Rockman, but I figured rock music was a bit more implied and appropriate when you put Roll into the equation.

♫I looooove Rock'n Roll!♫

But yeah. Not a bad R-P-S theory.

Well, she's 11 now. She's the baby of the family, haha. And when I said "that's what my baby sister said" I meant she said "that was a lame joke", XD. Sorry for the confusion.

She's more of a secondary fan of Megaman. She just knows about him because I'm a fan. She doesn't care about the games, but she likes the characters.

I actually put thought into those theories, lol.

Okay kids! Let's play guess which Legends Station Admin masquerading as a barely-canon Bonne Mech Hybrid From Hell can't sleep in five words or more!

Amazingly enough this has nothing to do with the damn hurricane, which is supposed to plow right into me. I've run into so many overhyped storm systems in my lifetime and seen so many people flip out over nothing that I'd be surprised if this held up to the Grand St. Patty's Tornado of 200X. Drunk people + insane winds + lightning ripping the sky apart = The Perfect Storm.

[Bean]

Isn't Sandy currently a Category 1 storm anyway, just that it's really freaking huge? I'm in the Midwest, so it won't be affecting me, but hope things are all right for you all on the east coast with this thing.

Can we just say the lady's name 6 times and call it good?

I haven't gotten news of the hurricane, so it must be in a whole different part of the country. Or actually, it's just a timezone away from me, now that I research a little. Have they given it a name yet*, or is it quite literally named St. Patty?

Seriously though, make sure you're safe enough, and any drunk people who may or may not be near you, even if that includes yourself. :17:

I remember that tornado too, it was a fairly defining point of my childhood when it tore down some doors and busted up some windows of my old daycare. What fun memories to think about.

*Well thanks Bean.

[Dashe]

It's apparently not so much the category value that's worrying meteorologists, it's the weird path it's taking, which is hitting some insanely densely populated areas. It's also expected to collide with a large cold front moving eastward, which means mountainous regions get a lot of early snow. On the other hand, none of these areas are really below sea level now, or are at the mercy of a dam holding up or anything.

[Bean]

That whole size does matter thing could be the issue. I have friends on the east coast, present company included, that I'm concerned about just because it could be a long-lasting storm. Just hoping it stays weak for you all.

[Loken]

It's the new's job to make this look apocalyptic you know! I'm sure won't be as bad as our storms here in tornado alley!

[Dashe]

It was the wimpiest storm I've had yet. The power didn't even flicker. It must have realized who it was on the verge of running into and dissipated without a fight.
