May [relevant people] [auxiliary verb of choice] [desired behaviour], and may this [festive occasion of choice] bring to [you and/or yours] [desired result].

So, yes. Have a(n) [intensifier of choice] [adjective indicating happiness and/or merriment] [festive occasion of choice]. And - to borrow from a(n) [adjective indicating age and/or widespread familiarity] tale - [entity] [expression for investment of likelihood of goodness] us, everyone.







(Read text enclused [thus] as spaces to fill in whatever works for you. My suggestions, in order, are: xmas, (your GMT offset + 11 hrs), wish, expansively, merry, xmas, people, be, nice to other people, xmas, you and yours, hapiness and merriment, incredibly, happy, xmas, classic, I'm completely not picking an entity, make stuff good for (hey, look, I didn't quite think that bit through). So, um, yes. Merriment. Happiness. For all of you. Got it?)

You have good taste in music.

Hurrah! I shamelessly posted this on MQ. Happy Christmas, future person!

Yay, holiday madlibs!

Mad Lib Mania!
From the first minutes of Saturnalia, 37 hours ahead of many of you, I'd like to inflict upon you a hot-diggity, so hip you can't see over your own pelvis, Rhododendron Festival. May the trolls who hang around cf_hardcore cease wanking for more than 5 minutes, and may this Wintereenmas bring to loyal members of metaquotes free paid time and extra icons.

So, yes. Have a tricked-out squeegasmic raging fandom debate over the title of the next Potter book. And - to borrow from a shamelessly bastardized by Disney, those unoriginal fucks, tale - the owl says that you'll survive plowing if you move your house to the lee of the stone.

Merry merry!

>_<

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Augh. Even efw has not sufficiently prepared me for that level of noncommittal brackets.

A(n) [intensifier of choice] [adjective indicating happiness and/or merriment] [festive occasion of choice] to you too.

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Mmm, rhododendron pie. My favourite holiday treat.

[fireflyfailure.livejournal.com]

::continues rotflmao::

:p

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

I thought so (but then, I would). :)

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Wheeeee! Also, 10 points to you for sidestepping the mimetic abuse of the word 'context'.

And a happy Christmas to you too, not-so-future person. May it be untroubled by Cylons with hats.

[Merry acceptance of gratitude]

[Expression of delight at xmas!Simon]

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Holiday what?

*scampers off to Wikipedia*

Oh, those. Wheee!

Re: >_<

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Hey! Those brackets aren't completely noncommital. Just... flexible. Especially if you have odd ideas of festive occasions, like "The Opening of the Seventh Bottle" or something.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

On an unrelated note, you should probably start waving some authority about in apathy_games. (And if you could give me a copy of the stuff I decided on for Bella, that'd be good: my paper versions seem to have gone slightly missing, and I'd rather not go ransacking my desk unless I need to)

[shaysdays.livejournal.com]

So far, so good. It's rather piratey, though.

[Somber, monotone expression of vaguely non-menalcholy emotion for your xmas!Snapebot icon, which is ever so much better than mine. Really.]

[palmer-kun.livejournal.com]

I'm aware of that. But NaNo passed, and then I got swamped in work, and then went and quoted my icon, because it was approaching the aforementioned Rhododendron Festival, and so I figured New Years was probably a good time to get back in action.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

*noddles* Good answer. Also, I just found the paper sheet with the 'final' scribbling on it.

[palmer-kun.livejournal.com]

It also appears that lady_zip/Ingrid will be dropping. She's just finished school and now is facing a big old chunk of Life™, and feels she can't properly commit to this. Woe.

We'll manage.

Re: >_<

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Hmm. It's true that people don't often wish me a sleepy sleep-in. Alas.

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

I'd sort of assumed as much re: new year - it's nice and convenient. Will we have to rearrange the pulp novels or can we just keep them as they are and leave Ingrid as a Non Participant character?

[palmer-kun.livejournal.com]

Backgrounds are fine. Nothing saying she can't make cameos or deux exes or whatnot. One strength of SOTC (at least in face to face games) is that it's meant to easily accomodate people coming and going randomly without disrupting things.

o/ We wish you a merry sleep-in,
We wish you a merry sleep-in,
We wish you a merry sleep-in
And a pancake breakfast o/

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Indeed. It's shiny like that.

Also, I only just noticed that you're on the FATE list now. Hooray!

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Mmmm. Pancakes. But I think I've been spending too much time on the internet when pancakes make me think of bunnies.

[shaysdays.livejournal.com]

I have a question to ask you about local slang.

Mind if I send you an e-mail tomorrow about it? I'm going to bed now (yaaaay) but it's bothering me.

Oh, and by the by? You still owe me some weirdass fic.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

A question? Iiiinteresting.

Email's fine, or you can just put it in a comment here, or whatever. MY addy's in my userinfo, or ye olde username@lyvejournalle.comme forwarding thingy should work now that I have more paid time.

And... I know. I even have a cunning plan for how to write it, but it's not quite working out as well as I'd hoped yet.
