Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly Kill This Thread XVII - Retirement Age

The following rules were established by Kent Shakespeare at the start of the first 24-hour version, adapted from the original rules by EDE:

The rules:

1. The Basic Idea: Post to this thread, if no one posts after you for 24 hours, you win!

2. Posts that are not direct responses to one of the five preceding posts are ineligible to win. The topic can drift, but no complete non-sequitors. Posts that are responses to non-sequitors are also ineligible to win. Posts that are responses to responses to non-sequitors, and response nses to those posts, etc., become eligible, however.

3. In the event that this thread is locked, there shall be no winner unless a new thread is started for the contest. Furthermore, any post that results in the banning of the poster shall also be ineligible to win.

4. So, more precisely, one wins if one makes a post, and then no one makes another post that's eligible to win for 24 hours.

At the rate I'm killing threads, I'm going to have to get another shelf for my trophies!

Good encrusted ones

Pie crust can be delicious, if it's made right.

I sometimes enjoy stuffed crust pizza

Yeah, stuffed crust can be nice as a change of pace, but my default crust is the thin NYC style.

Thin crust is also my fave

Thin-crust pizza is one of two culinary delights that New York does better than anywhere else. Bagels is the other.

New York style pizza is famous - and popular - for a reason

Oh, yes.

The one time I went to New York, I had pizza there. It was everything I'd been told it was, and more!

My mouth is watering

Be careful you don't end up standing in a puddle.

Better that than standing on a poodle.

That would leave a person befuddled (befoodled?)

Foozled is a word used to describe something Gear does

As opposed to Fozzled, which is something Jim Henson does.

Fozzie Bear!

Fozzie Bear getting heckled by Statler & Waldorf -- again!

The National Comedy Center in Jamestown, New York has an animatronic Fozzie Bear telling jokes.

Does it go, "Waka waka?"

Wakka is a character from Final Fantasy

I had to look up Final Fantasy.

But even though I know nothing about gaming, that franchise seems interesting.

Pretty much each game has a different setting, though.

That's one of the reasons I'm not a gamer.

I'm no "gamer", but I love watching Game Shows.

When I was little, I loved game shows. Summer vacations to the States in the 1980s meant, among other things, gathering with family to watch Family Feud every weekday evening.

And yes, I am aware of what I accidentally did in the paragraph above.

We used to watch Family Feud too!

I actually tried out for it once, but our family was just not exciting enough, I guess.

We used to play Monopoly, but got bored of it quickly

My favorite thing about Monopoly was the little playing pieces made of metal. They were beautifully designed.

While classic designs are nice, the car could use to have been updated over the decades.

To each their own. I find the old-fashioned car design comforting.

I used to like the thimble!

Me, too! And the hat was cute!

In fact, it was the tops!

I give that a high five

I'm raising my hand to meet yours, but I tend to have terrible aim.

Just don't hit my face by accident

High five in high fidelity.

More likely I'd smack my own forehead.

Would you simultaneously exclaim, "D'OH?"

Of course. I'm basically Homer Simpson with hair.

D’oh!

A deer!

A female deer!

Ray

A drop of golden sun!

When you know the notes to sing, you can sing 'most anything!

Once you have these notes in your heads...

dang it... they're stuck now!

Earworms! EEK!

You'll need early birds to get them.

As opposed to early Byrds, when they were making really good music.

Why don't we just eat worms?

It's their job to eat us, in the end.

That's what they said about Galactus!

Well, Galactus's Uncle Ben said that with power cosmic comes responsibility cosmic.

Cosmic Boy seems to take that to heart.

That's a big part of what makes him so attractive.

He does have a lot of magnetism.

Too many Cosmic Boy puns make me Krinnge.

sounds repulsive!

Lepers repel.

they especially repel like personalities

looks like I killed this one!
