  2. @zeldatra It's neat. It is about Silas Marner the weaver, who is excommunicated from his home church, has to move to a new town, and finds peace in weaving to earn piles of money. Eventually, his money is stolen, and he has to get help from the townspeople to find it.

  4. @zeldatra I got that impression from the ones I saw, too. It must be stressful trekking from door to door trying to change peoples' basic values.

  5. @zeldatra I have had them once, and I tried to be as courteous as possible without giving them my home phone number or saying I had been converted. :^[

  9. @lightsword I will tell you the rest of the story another time.

  10. @lightsword After hearing about the monster's deeds, Jin prepared to leave. 'I will go and see if this ogre is real,' said he, but one of his comrades interjected, 'How will we know you have been there? You will just hide in the town until morning.' To prove that he had really gone to brave the ogre, he took signatures of all his friends on a slip of paper, which he would leave at the bridge.

  11. @lightsword Now, Jin was brave, and he thought he was wise, as well. He said to the peasants and to his friends: 'What trouble could such a creature be, if he just gnashes?' And the town logger told the samurai that it was impossible to cross the bridge at night, because the ogre eats anyone who passes. Jin drank up his sake...

  12. @lightsword And the samurai friends were having their bowls of tea and sake, until they heard a band of peasants in the corner, talking about an ogre who lived under the nearby bridge. The ogre was twenty feet tall, and gnashed so loudly during the night that trees were known to fall over from the sound...

  13. @lightsword It is not a very ghosty story, but there is a twist near the end with Jin's old babysitter. It begins with Jin coming with his samurai friends to the tea house of a country town...

  14. @lightsword Have you heard the one about the samurai Jin who fought an ogre on a bridge?

  21. @metaltao Can you describe it?

  22. @northernnarwhal Good night.

  24. @northernnarwhal If a waifu is beautiful and elegant on the outside, the mind and innards can be taken as pretty in relation to that, or in themselves. The wriggling intestines are essential to life. Hair follicles are there. The flickering of the brain and heart. The fat of the cheeks and belly must be like works of art, if one is pleased by the shape of such a creature.

  25. @northernnarwhal These creatures have jaws and backs of the very same fat, and teeth and organs packed tightly. Beauties. Amazing minds, too

  26. @metaltao Yes!

  27. @northernnarwhal Mammals make fine waifus, I hear! Warm-blooded, strong-muscled creatures. Eyelashes. They cast eyes and love with a single look.

  28. @northernnarwhal There is so much waifu in these parts.

  29. @alexyota I sure am. I would like to play with the color outside of the picture first, though. I would not like to ruin a fine job.
