It's an old McDonald's mascot, back when they had a whole crew with the Hamburglar and stuff. Nowadays it's just Ronald

It was a mad bastard television rant, so yeah, it's a little less coherent than the others...and that's saying something.

I think it might've just been a thing where they got more exposure in America than elsewhere, because I am one of the youngest guys on this forum and I remember Grimace. From my early childhood, granted, but the ads with Grimace and the Hamburgler and stuff weren't aimed at teens or adults.

that was a pun on AH . .
and yes, the cultural divide might be the reason i don't remember that, you are probably spot on there.

I totally remember Grimace and the Hamburglar and Fry Kids and the rest, and I think I'm like second or third youngest here, if I recall the numbers in the "Who are you?" thread correctly.

The magus woke from the crow of the black pullet

wa?

and he cared not if he supped from chipped cups and cracked plates from spoons and forks where the silver finish had long worn off.

sipped and i think a new verb might be missing for the cutlery.

Forces would against him, on different planes.

and what would they against him?

Pullet == a hen. Also a reference to a grimoire.

Nah. "Sup" is a verb, same derivation as "supper."

Okay, there you've got me. Would move.

Today on The Unpublishable, in a complete and utter disregard for women I present "The Fairy Duel." I'm so sorry. http://www.the-unpublishable.com/2013/0 ... -duel.html

Now that was a nice story with only one typo jumping out at me

and old surgeon

probably should be an at the beginning i think

i am not sure but:

So to there

does this work like that or is that supposed to be too in there?

Ancient History · Post by **Ancient History** » Sat Jun 01, 2013 11:40 am

It should be "So too there"; both good catches, thanks.

Just a question. I got the feeling it had a Victorianesque setting, but then how did she know the sex of her baby before birth? I thought that was a modern thing since ultrasounds?

Ancient History · Post by **Ancient History** » Sat Jun 01, 2013 2:40 pm

There are a lot of old superstitions about telling what the sex of a child is going to be before it's born.

Repeating myself a little with "Conjure Rum." Only on the Unpublishable (because no-one else would want it). http://www.the-unpublishable.com/2013/0 ... e-rum.html

You need to write rules for Conjure Rum now.
