The Self Referential Thread

[General Zod]

I made sure we have a huge supply of the treats they love so much :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Excellent General Zod. :D :D I also must say Adam looks mighty fine with his widdle army helmet on too. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They must look cute in their little helmets. :D :p

[General Zod]

he sure does What a very^999999 leader he is as well He needs a big promotion when the battle is done :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I"m sure that they will take pictures to show us later. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They look very^999999 cute indeed mils.

I agree General Zod. We may have the first atomic General on our hands soon. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

^ that will be a remarkable achievement, an atomic General. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Adam has just informed me that he is picking up a massive number of subatomic particles heading our way on his itty bitty scanner. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Alright, then, the battle is about to start. :D :p

[General Zod]

Good luck and God speed Adam :D :D :p Kick their butts

[milagros317]

Yes, much in the cosmos depends on you now, Adam. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

All subatomic stations are on red alert. All Subatomic stations are on red alert. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Once again we will be waiting for news. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Adam has informed me that the battle is underway. The Takers have sent large numbers of subatomic Dark Matter to infiltrate and spy on our Armada. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Quite nasty of them to do that. :D :p

[General Zod]

The enemy will get destroyed They should've stayed home :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I'm sure that you're right, General Zod. They will be obliterated. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Adam says that it is a exceedingly massive battle but so far things are going well. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I'm very glad to hear that news. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Me too. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

Very^ 9999 excellent news Thank you Kurch :D :D :wavingguy

[milagros317]

Now awaiting the next news bulletin from Adam the Atom. :D :p
:atom: <== a picture of him

[General Zod]

A very^9999 fine picture of him Friends I have to call it a night now Back to work early in the am again Man,I wish it was spring or summer Don't like cold weather

Peace and wuv :wub: :bunny: :D :p

[kurchatovium]

A bigger picture of Adam.

[kurchatovium]

Good Night General Zod. Take care my good friend. Peace and wuv. :D :bunny: :wub: :D

[milagros317]

That larger picture is really beautiful. :D :p
Good night General Zod, peace and wuv to you. :wavingguy

[kurchatovium]

Thanks mils. Yea it is a really spectacular picture. :D :D

Adam informs me that over 40% of the enemy forces have been destroyed. So far only minor casulaties on our side. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is truly wonderful news. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes it is. :D

More atomic troops coming in to help:

[milagros317]

Fabulous news for the good guys. :D :p

[milagros317]

That's quite impressive. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Fantastic News!!! Adam has informed me that our sub atomic troops have defeated the sub atomic troops of the Takers. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

Fantastic job Adam My congrats to you and the troops My condolences to you on the causulaties your troops have taken I think we need to have a great funeral service for those troops :dropatear :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is truly wonderful news. Congratulations to Adam the Atom and all of his atomic troops. :D :p

[Pokey]

My congratulations to Adam the Atom and those troops as well and a speedy recovery to the injured. I really like the way the battalion replacements travel in the famous wedge formation. :p :bowing:

[milagros317]

Lots of candied neutrinos were ready for them to enjoy when the battle was over. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Adam the Atom has been officially promoted to the rank of General. To my knowledge he is the first atomic general. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is a well deserved promotion! :D :p

[kurchatovium]

I quite agree mils. :D :p :D

[milagros317]

They did eat a lot of candied neutrinos when the battle was over. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Indeed they did. They has even a widdle atomic party going on. Quite festive from what Adam has said. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Well, they have a lot to celebrate. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes quite a lot in fact. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

It's a good thing that candied neutrinos don't take up much space. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Very^99999 true. They take up hardly any space at all. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Now that this battle is over, we must further explore here. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes indeed we must. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Ready to commence exploration again on your orders, Kurch. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes by all means lets continue exploring. :D :D :p All engines ahead one half speed. Cloaking and shields at 100%. :D :p

[milagros317]

Aye, aye, Kurch, all engines ahead one half speed. Cloaking and shields at 100%. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Scanners on high. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Aye, aye, Kurch, scanners on high. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Not picking anything up yet except lots of darkness. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

Cloaked and shield 100% and scanners on high; Traveling 1/2 speed ahead; Nothing to report

[kurchatovium]

Hmmmmm really quiet out there so far. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Nothing on my scanners yet either. :D :p

[Pokey]

Quiet is good, very often.

[milagros317]

Sooner or later, something nasty will come at us here. :eek:
:D :p

[kurchatovium]

Seems something always does. :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

I just hope it's not more putrid zombies. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

I hope not either. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Being showered with pieces of rotting zombie flesh was one of my least faorite experiences in this Armada. :D :p

[Pokey]

Hard work and perceverence prevailed during those times with the Armada but especially with Kurch, Mils and TheThreads leadership.

[kurchatovium]

Unfortunately though I am sure there are some undead research facilities here. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is extremely unfortunate. :D :p

[Pokey]

:shock: :p

[kurchatovium]

Quite true. Evil unfortunately knows no boundaries in its attempts for power and chaos. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Research about the undead is particularly evil. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Especially when combined with Alchemy, genetic engineering and Hyperdimensional physics. :wowzer:

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is a foul combination indeed. :D :p

[Pokey]

Not to speak of confusing to understand :confused: :p

[kurchatovium]

The scary part would be them succeeding in making Undead beings as powerful as THE THREAD. :yowzer: :yowzer: :yowzer: :yowzer: :yowzer: :yowzer: :yowzer: :yowzer:

:D :D :p

[milagros317]

There is still nothing detected on my scanners. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yea same here mils. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I will keep scanning as we go. I'm sure there is more danger to come here. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yea there is more than likely......hmmmmmm there is a large planet nearby maybe we should scan it closer. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Yes, we certainly should. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Lets go in closer but nice and slow I rather not alert anyone we are here. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Aye, aye, Kurch, proceeding towards the planet slowly. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Excellent. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

Should we flank the planet to scan two different areas Kurch?

[milagros317]

No life forms detected on the planet yet, but we aren't too close. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes good idea Pokey go ahead and flank the other side. :D :p

Yes very true mils. I am picking up a large industrial complex though. Someone must be there I think :D :D :p

[Pokey]

Crew pick up to 3/4 speed and angle around keeping a close eye and ear open to the scanner

[milagros317]

Likely evil things are being done at that complex. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Keep me posted on what you find Pokey. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

Aye, Aye Kurch

[kurchatovium]

Quite likely mils. :D :D :p There is a some kind of jamming shield around the planet most likely why we are having problems detecting stuff. THE THREAD is trying to unjam the scanners. :D :D

[milagros317]

That would help greatly, if THE THREAD can do it. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

He is readjusting things now. Should be back up in a few. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

Engines slow to 1/2 speed again. Kurch, reporting sounds similar to, music?

Disregard, that was a crew member with one of the new MP10 players. He is being reviewed and has been replaced. Moving forward.

[milagros317]

I'm sure we will find out what we need to know when THE THREAD is done. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

OK Pokey LOL thanks for the info. :D :p

He is just finishing up. Should be back up in a bit. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I'll be going to sleep now, good night everybody. :D :p
Peace and wuv to you. :xpulcy:

[Pokey]

Good night Mils, same to you and also to you Kurch, for I am also going to go flat. :bowing:

[kurchatovium]

THE THREAD unjammed the scanners all should be able to be seen now. :D :p :p

Good Night mils. Take care my good friend. Peace and wuv. :D :wub: :bunny:

Good Night Pokey. Take care my good friend. Peace and wuv. :D :wub: :bunny:

[milagros317]

A new day has dawned, and I'm sure it will be a fine one for our Armada. :D :p

[Pokey]

I am sure the Armada is in good spirits today! :p

[kurchatovium]

A wonderful new day in a rather dark and icky realm :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

Very^9999 icky, but we will succeed here. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Indeed we will. This place needs more fluorescent lighting though. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

It needs more lighting than exists on Earth, in fact. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Certainly a fluorescent lighting contractor could make a great deal of money here. :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

I think it's a job for KTT once we get this realm cleared of evil beings. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Its a big job. I think we would need lots of help from the Hpyerdimensional Robot Union. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Most definitely those Robots would be needed. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They are very^99999 helpful. :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

I have never met one, but I've the stories about how productive they are. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

There hourly rates are very^99999 reasonable too. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I never inquired as to how much they charge. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Well they are paid 20 galaxons per femto intergalactic revolution. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

How does that translate into US$ per hour? :D :p

[kurchatovium]

*gets out calculator*

Hmmmmmmm ............. It ends up being $12.48 an hour. Roughly. :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

That is very reasonable. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes I quite agree its a very reasonable rate. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I should hire some to clean up my apartment. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They could even build you a new apartment. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That would be even better, this building is over 70 years old. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They could probably even build you a whole building as well. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That would be terrific. They sure are capable. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They work very^99999 fast. :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

How long would it take them to make a ten storey buliding with eight apartments per floor? :D :p

[kurchatovium]

*gets out calculator again*

Hmmmmmmmmm......lets see................ assuming a team of ten robots that would be about 4.34 minutes I would say. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is truly remarkable. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

KTT is very^99999 happy with their services. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

And rightly so. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They work 365/24/7 too. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That's even more amazing, people could never match that. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Nope people never could match that I think. :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

What's the working lifespan of one of these Robots? :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Well the life of the robot is really the life of its main cpu and those usually last about 500,000 years. The hyperdimensional hypergrav drives though need to be replaced about every 75,000 years though. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

75,000 years before the need for maintenance sounds great to me. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yea its sounds pretty good to me too. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I've never had a car or appliance that good. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Even longer than your average twinkie could survive. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That's incredibly long, yes. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Cause twinkies last a really long time too. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They sure do, they just get harder and harder. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yup, you could probably use them as weapons after a few years. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

Hello my friends

How is everyone tonight? Just able to pop in for a little tonight sadly :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Doing well General Zod. Thank you for asking. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Good to see you here, even if briefly, General Zod. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes always good to see you here General Zod. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Kurch has been telling me about the amazing robots that work for KTT. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes all members of the Union HIRAM (Hyperdimensional Intergalactic Robotic Association of Machines) :D :D :p

[General Zod]

Do you guys think an X-ray gun may be to terrible a weapon to use on our enemies? What it does is,it destroys 80% of the beings atoms The being that has 20% left dies a slow,painful death :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Sounds like a good weapon to me General Zod. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That sounds like a good idea to me, General Zod. :D :p

[General Zod]

Those robots do sound very^99999 amazing :D :D

[kurchatovium]

Yup the hyperdimensional robots are pretty cool. Luckily we have a batalion of them with us on this mission. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

It's reassuring to have them with us, too. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes very^99999 reassuring. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

How many robots are in a batalion? :D :p

[kurchatovium]

*gets out calculator once again :p *

Hmmmmmm ................... lets see................ according to my calculations about 1,000,000. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Wow, that's much larger than a batalion of soldiers here on Earth. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes thats true. Robots dont require as much personal living space like people do so its easier to load them up into ships. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Good night, Kurch, peace and wuv to you. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Good Night mils. Take care my good friend. Peace and wuv. :D :wub: :bunny:

[milagros317]

A new day has dawned. I'm sure that fine things will happen for our Armada. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Indeed a glorious new day for the Armada. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

I have plenty of those new X-ray beam guns now for the troops They do come with a self destruct mechanisim so the enemy can't capture them and use them :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Excellent General Zod. Sounds great. THE THREAD is back working on modifying your Planet Wave Cannon now that the threat of espionage has been eliminated. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

Great news indeed my friend How goes the scan of the planet? :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

The scan goes well. There is lots of activity down there. It seems to be a production facility of some sort. We should know exactly what they are producing in a few minutes. This may be a good canditate to try out that planet gun depending on what we find. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

I can hardly wait to shut that facility down :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

A new experimental model of the Planet Wave Cannon should be ready shortly as well. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

More great news I am very^99999 glad THE THREAD is on our side :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

I would very^9999999999 much agree with that statement. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

Here is a pic of the cannon firing No luck in finding a clip of it :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Wow thanks General Zod. Looks really cool. I can hardly wait to fire this sucker up. :D :D :p :p

[General Zod]

You're welcome Kurch It is quite a site to see that sucker firing :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

The scanners indicate that the planet below is an Undead Manufacturing Facility. :eek: :sowrong:

:D :D :p

[General Zod]

Those fiends Are there any friendlies on the planet? :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

We are sending the atomic scouts in to be sure, we dont want to blow up a whole planet if there are any innocents there. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

Great idea Kurch I have to call it a night now my friend I don't think I will be online tommorow night I know it'll be a long day,then early to bed for me I wish the scouts well in their recon

Peace and wuv :wub: :bunny: :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Good Night General Zod. Take care my good friend. Peace and wuv. :D :bunny: :wub: :D

[milagros317]

A new day has dawned, and I have a feeling it will be a good one for our Armada. :D :p

[Pokey]

The day has stayed pretty quiet and that is good for the Armada

[milagros317]

In particular, we have not been attacked by putrid zombies today. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Unfortunately the planet below seems to be a Zombie Manufacturing Plant run and operated by Zombies. Fortunately with the help of General Zod and THE THREAD we have a Planet Wave Cannon to take of the problem so we dont have to go near the icky zombies. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is excellent news indeed. I don't like going near zombies, they always have a foul odor. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

One of the modifications THE THREAD made to the Planet Wave Cannon was to add a fresh pine scent. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That should help a lot, pine smells so much better than zombies. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yes indeed pine is a much better smell than zombies. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

I am really glad no zombies will be n our near future, at leastnot tonight

[kurchatovium]

Well this time at least we should be able to get rid of them at a distance. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

General Zod has done well, as always

[milagros317]

Getting rid of them at a distance sounds great. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Zombies are icky to deal with up close. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

Even the thought of the Zombies smells

[milagros317]

Being showered with rotting pieces of putrid zombies in a battle was one of my least favorite experiences. :xlime:
:D :p

[kurchatovium]

Zombies are just not a lot of fun in general I think. :D :D :p

[Pokey]

and you certainly have some experiences to draw from. :p

[kurchatovium]

Zombies really suck at the game of Twister too. :D :p :p :D

[milagros317]

"No fun at all" is what I would say also. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Zombies are not very good at soccer either. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They are hopelessly bad at baseball, too. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Not very good at football either. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They really stink at lacrosse, too. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They are really bad at gymnastics as well. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They are completely useless in 8-oared crew events. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

and not suprisingly they really suck at all 10 of the decathlon events. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They are hopelessly bad at ice hockey. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They are also atrocious at the 100 yard dash. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

On the intellectual level, they really stink at chess. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Not very good at Sudoku puzzles either. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Absolutely terrible at duplicate bridge. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Not too good at poker either. Though they do bluff fairly well :p :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They always lose badly at the Japanese game of Go. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

They even suck at Tic Tac Toe. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

They fail miserably when they try to do crossword puzzles.:D :p

[kurchatovium]

They are completely awful at Trivial Pursuit too. :D :D :p :p

[milagros317]

They're never able to bulid anything with an erector set. :D :p

[General Zod]

Have the scouts found any friendly forces/personell on the planet?

[Pokey]

I don't know if the scouts are back yet General!!

[milagros317]

We are awaiting their return and their report. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

The scouts are back. There are a small group of beings that are friendly that seem to be held captive. We are working to teleport them into the debriefing center of our ship. The rest of planet is all occupied by Zombies and a few other undead nasties. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

What a horrible planet, mostly occupied by zombies. :eek:
:D :p

[kurchatovium]

A couple of ghouls down there too. :D :D :p

[General Zod]

I hope those friendly beings are ok :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Not as bad as all zombies, but still a rotten planet. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Yup well once we teleport the friendly beings out of there we are going to blow up the planet. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That will absolutely be the right thing to do. :D :p

[General Zod]

*goes and makes sure the planet busting wave motion gun is ready to fire* :D :D :p

[milagros317]

It's great that you're making preparations to destroy this planet of zombies, General Zod. :D :p

[General Zod]

Much easier and less smelly than fighting them up close :D :D :p

[milagros317]

My thoughts exactly, since they are overwhelming in their putridness. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

We are beaming the beings into the debriefing center now. THE POST is there to help explain things to them and put them at ease. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

That is wonderful news, Kurch, let us know when they are all safely arrived. :D :p

[General Zod]

If anyone can help them,it's THE POST :D :D :p

[kurchatovium]

The beings have been teleported safely. We are now ready to fire the Planet Wave Cannon. Firing to commnece in one minute. All non essential personnel please report ot your quarters. All stations on Red Alert. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Aye, aye, Kurch, on Red Alert. :D :p

[General Zod]

All personell that are needed to fire this gun,please put on tinted safety lenses and strap in :D :D :p

[milagros317]

I've got some atuomatic cameras recording this momentous event. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Firing to commence in 30 seconds. :D :D :p

[milagros317]

Aye, aye, thirty seconds. I have cameras recording this event from six different angles. :D :p

[kurchatovium]

Excellent mills.
