<H2><font color="plum">Cloudy's Cafe</font></H2>

Come in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself

Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good
darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie.

The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines:

<H3>this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone</H3>


[i]* no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner
* any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences)
-a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short
conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately!
* Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!)
* do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it.

Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around the world. And purple napkins, of course!

<font color="pink">The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.</font>

Cloudy,
your hostess [img]graemlins/ladyhearts.gif[/img]

Hi everybody.

Great day I'm at school finishing a essay (well, browsing the net is about 80% of the work I do [img]smile.gif[/img] ).

It's great there was a big campus party last and the computerlab could be the setting for a new Evil Dead movie
"The morning of the recently awake"

Megabot 10-04-2002 07:36 AM

This Friday will be remembered by me as "The Friday where I decided to join the local Rugby Union team". Are they going to accept me or not ? that's a whole other issue. [img]graemlins/viking.gif[/img]

Good luck getting in, Warhammer! I don't know much about rugby, but if you like it, then I hope you get to join! :D

Happy Friday to you too, Megabot!

Cloudbringer 10-04-2002 08:28 AM

Good day, Jorath! Your essay wouldn't be about browsing the web, would it? LOL Might make a good topic sometime and you have experience! ;)

Warhammer 10-04-2002 08:29 AM

Thanks guys [img]graemlins/viking.gif[/img] , I'll keep you posted.

I'am off. Have a good week-end. See you on Monday!

That's good news. BTW. I posted on Siege ;)
EDIT: Boy, I just read Lennon's thread, and I can see why Mouse closed it. Why on earth would anyone post on a site where the moderator made such posts? I know how everybody felt, I wanted to register on that site and ... [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img] Well, like I said, I can see why they closed the thread.

The Trickster 10-04-2002 09:50 AM

Hi everyone! It's midnight on Friday night, with a long weekend ahead.

I bought Medal of Honor today, and I think I'm about halfway through already!

It's great fun, and extremely cinematic.

Calaethis Dragonsbane 10-04-2002 09:56 AM

The Trickster 10-04-2002 10:04 AM

I hope it goes well for you. Catch you soon, and by the way, I have some bad news for you! I found the following quote on the net.

"Information from Holtzbrinck Publishers LLC, the parent company of Tor Books (publisher of the Wheel of Time series in North America), informed us today that the long-awaited Book 10 of the series has been delayed to 7th January 2003."

Calaethis Dragonsbane 10-04-2002 10:06 AM

<font color = lightgreen>I know what you mean. My question for that other site is this: are people bending over backwards to buy your naming rights? [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thefinger.gif[/img]

Finally! Red Dragon! [img]graemlins/awesomework.gif[/img] <font color = red>Belle</font> and I are going out on a date today! [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] </font>

Mack_Attack 10-04-2002 11:10 AM

Good morning everyone. My first time in the cafe. How is the coffee.

Kaltia 10-04-2002 11:41 AM

Azred, I LOVE the picture in your sig. Tigers! Sweet! (And the kid is sort of cute too [img]tongue.gif[/img] )
What is worse is that my cat is about that size in real life. [img]graemlins/uhoh1.gif[/img] imagine trying to get him on your lap...*sigh* And no, I am NOT exaggerating.
friday! I love Fridays. Had a non-uniform day today at school. i felt really good about myself which doesn't happen often, plus I got to see several boys get their hair died pink and a little kid run into a holly bush. Not counting my mate Frances (She's a goth) bellowing "NORMAL!" at all the little wanna-be grunger kiddies. it was fun, wish they'd do it more often. :D

Horatio 10-04-2002 11:49 AM

Eww...grungers :D
I'd like to think that, being in Uni, I'm above all that trend rivalry...but I still love to get into arguments with grungers :D :D
How is everyone? I'm fine, but today could have been better. I've got to do a HUGE essay by next Tuesday :(

Kaltia 10-04-2002 12:00 PM

Argh! Anti-grunger???????? TRENDIE! (do I dare say it...PIKEY!)
Sorry but those two types are REALLY not very nice. Pikeys (NOT gypsys) are the ones who always wear the latest reebok stuff and knife little kids in the streets for their mobiles.

Horatio 10-04-2002 12:05 PM

heh, I always thought Pikeys and Grungers were allied. God, I miss the 90s. :D
No, I am NOT a pikey ;) Trendies and Pikeys are NOT the same thing.

Hmm, to be a Trendy at my school seems to give you:
1) the right to hit random people for no reason
2) the right to mess around in each lesson thinking you're funny but making a fool of yourself
3) the right to insult everyone even if you happen to know they just got over from, say, a severe round of anorexia.
4) the right to dress exactly like your friends and hit people who don't copy your style as they are obviously idiots
5) The right to go to a grunger and repeatedly and loudly tell her she's minging.
6) the right to cause such severe confidence problems 3 girls leave your school
7) the right to back-stab friends and talk behind the back of everyone
8) the right to assume you are a God figure and therefore have the god-given right to personally insult me every morning because I have acne.

I think you can kinda see why i hate trendies. I never laughed as much as I did when one fell into some liquid concrete...Ah, quality.

Horatio 10-04-2002 12:15 PM

Hm, then things have changed A LOT since I was in secondary school ;)
Well, there will always be rivalries between these type of people. I just love it when I walk past some 15 year olds who are fighting one kid and just look at them in that "I'm gonna kick your arse" kind of way. They usually stop (I'm six foot three :D ) cos they think I'm the kid's brother or something. :D

Kaltia 10-04-2002 12:16 PM

LOL! Sounds like fun [img]smile.gif[/img]
I caouldn't kick anyone's butt, I'm too feminine. i guess I could whip them with a branch until they give up for my sake :D

Azred, I really Laughed Out Loud. Did you read all of that thread? The lickspittle posts, fawning over and flattering the mod, whatever his name was? Ugh!

Kaltia, good to have you back. Ah, High School, the last time in your life that you are forced to associate on a daily basis with people that you loathe. If any of them hit you, tell 'em that your adopted dad will be over to see them with his Very Big Dog. :D

Kaltia 10-04-2002 01:43 PM

Oh, no, i have a better way-Be as annoying as I can and when I get out of school if anyone lays an unwanted finger on me than BLAM! they're booked for assault. :D (Works, too)

Calaethis Dragonsbane 10-04-2002 01:57 PM

Kat dear, you dont have to be annoying *snigger* you can do that without thinking ;) seriously tho, with bastards like that around... no I'd better leave that unsaid. *ponders about "front line fodder" decides not to talk about it*
Quote:

No, seriously! Why don't you believe me? (I actually abhor violence in real life, but I like to talk about it. Why...I don't know.)
because its easier to talk about it then actually do it. because what is "fun" to talk about, isnt fun to do. because if you did it, you'd be worst then them.
but its still fun to talk about... [img]tongue.gif[/img]
acne? that was never mentioned!! heh, ignore ppl that go on about looks, its what's inside a person that matters.. lol, now I sound like an ugly git myself. heh, well, I dont care. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Kaltia 10-04-2002 01:58 PM

ROFL! Cal, you are so sweet! (I still think that was funny, tho, u are going to be KILLED!). Pause. Don't hate me, please? :(

Calaethis Dragonsbane 10-04-2002 02:02 PM

You little IMP. stop rewriting my sentaces from msn. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Kaltia the Drow Mistress says:
rofl!
Kaltia the Drow Mistress says:
There's worse I could put up about you. sweetie
Kaltia the Drow Mistress says:
i'm still sniggering
Dark Psycher (aka C Dragonsbane -IWs) says:
I would NEVER say that about erm, she'd be my mother in law right? addoptive?
Kaltia the Drow Mistress says:
See my second post
Kaltia the Drow Mistress says:
I'm sorry but it was too good to resist

hmpt. Hate you "dear"? How could I hate you, even if you ARE a naughty little imp...

Kaltia 10-04-2002 02:04 PM

Naughty? Me? [img]graemlins/angel.gif[/img]
NEVER! *hugs Cal* Alright, I'm sowwy [img]smile.gif[/img]

Calaethis Dragonsbane 10-04-2002 02:17 PM

*looks blank* I s'pose I should be the one appologising. I *really* shouldnt have said that. I only hope that Att and Lady G DONT take offence. I *really* didnt expect you to copy that Kat. I shouldnt even have typed it. :| *sigh*

Kaltia 10-04-2002 02:18 PM

That's my job, Daddy's little spy [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Calaethis Dragonsbane 10-04-2002 02:22 PM

*grumbles* I hope you're "daddy" spanks you soundly... you litte snitch... *sings*
