Guess what (and other stupidities)

So, Typh, what does Moron Rabe mean?

Don't be a wise guy.

What? I was thinking it was some strange Asian accent-joke...?

It's Latin. Depending on the context, it can mean "Come and take them" or "My hovercraft is full of eels".

You spelt it wrong on purpose to try and agitate me.  Well I'm not taking the bait.

Nah, actually i was just setting up for that bad accent joke, for the amusement of you and others. I know i've been pulling your leg a bit hard lately, but it's just meant as good fun, nothing more...

I actually think Moron Rabe has a nice ring to it. And given the original meaning, it kinda gives it a new meaning, pretty open for interpretation.

It could've been a cool band name or song title...

I thought it was Greek?

[Typhon]

In 480 B.C. when the massive Persian army encountered the Greek forces at Thermopylae, King Xerxes saw that the Persians outnumbered the Greeks by more than 100 to 1.  He then sent a message to King Leonidas of Sparta saying that if the Greeks were to lay down their weapons, then he would let them live.  King Leonidas sent a message back stating "molon labe" which is greek for "come take".  Translating into the way we speak today, it would say "Come and take them!"

Just posting this to get to "the middle floor"...

Seats are pretty good there, but nothing like the moshpit, dude!

The last time i was in a moshpit i got my glasses broken. Having extremly angled corneas make them pretty damn expencive too. But i'll come joining you soon, just wait there...

No waiting..?

I'm in the Golden Circle, now. I think that comes with a signed CD and a poster.

It's 1:30 in the morning and there's a mockingbird chirping his ass off out my window.
