It makes me so happy that "world of darkness" has been copyrighted. I would like to copyright "world of pain". Tannhauser Schuster-Slatt's World of Pain.

I still feel bitter about my own World of Leather being stolen from me.

Yeah, sorry about that. But all's fair in LARP and war, as they say.

For some reason I always read "quimper" as if it was French, and imagine a large van trundling off into the wilderness with the kids arguing in the back.

Your point is good. However, it shall avail you nought against having your blood turned to water.

In my old country they say things like "teza zertin kewer ma maezuri, stapsay bagrin wetches vram gwent a zay an egg bote".

But yours has, like, its own alphabet and stuff.

I didn't say it was mine. I don't have an Alexander complex. Except in the usual sense, obviously.

Alexander wasn't Greek. He was Irish. Pay attention!

I believe that was the Emperor Murphy, who conquered Europe from the Pale to Sicilly in A.C.E. 170, but was excised from the history books after he ordered the burning of the Library of Dublin, but neglected to tell his soldiers to preserve his own patents of nobility.

Nick, are you Welsh?

You may be thinking of the Emperor Macsen, Sax. He had a silver hammer. Until I turned it to water.

Am.

I.

What?

You just saw 'Gwent' and thought of Welsh, didn't you?

Wales. Bah. Silly northern bastards.
 
 
Sax

Emperor Macsen was Welsh and he wasn't so uptight about it.

Although I am a little alarmed for your sanity that you knew to source a Cornish flag from the Sunbeam Alpine Owners' Club.
 
 
Sax
17:09 / 20.05.05


Mmmm. Cornwall.

And that's not what you think it is, either. It should have crust at the side, not the top, so that miners and fishermen can hold it and eat it with grubby hands and then throw away the handle. And those ones frequently have revoluting mince in them when any sane person would understand the filling needs to be chunky and Sax, if that's a Ginster's, we're going to have some kind of reckoning, matey boy.

And now I really want one. And I'm in London.

Arse.
 
 
Sax

It's from the delightful "images of Cornwall" section on www.cornwallgb.co.uk or something.

And I always thought they had the fiddly bit to tin miners could hold them in the cracks of their buff, bony arses as they worked to provide enough raw material for beans tins.

And, let's face it, there isn't really much between the Cornish and Welsh, is there? Couple of miles of polluted sea?

Okay, Sax, I'm going to forgive your ignorance this one time, but let me just make a few points.

1. The fact that the English have polluted the sea between Cornwall and Wales is no fault of ours.

2. Wales is full of the English. Even the Welsh say so. We don't have no truck with any of that.

3. You posted a site which links to Lizard. Are you insane? They worship Father Dagon and have webbed feet and eat missionaries over there. It's like Wales. It's on the Other Side Of Marazion for God's sake. We have no truck with none of that neither. No, we do not.

4. Time and distance in Cornwall are not measured the way grockles measure them. Deal with it.

5. In miles, there may be a comparatively short distance between Cornwall and Wales (it's not smaller than the distance from France to Spain, and look at the trouble over there, but that's another story) but there is a vast distance between the Cornish and our slower relatives, the Welsh. And between proper Cornish people and those who live on Lizard or up near Roc where the Royal Family have polluted the gene pool.

6. You never conquered us, we're just rentin' you space. Cornwall is the UK's equivalent of the Great State of Texas. Penzance is actually twinned with Austin.

We don't have no truck with any of that.

Although the unremitting awfulness of Cornwall certainly dissuades many from ever going there, and also sways those born there to run like the wind away from it at the first opportunity, it is noted, from Quaint Irene onwards, for the infux of English people seeking to get away from it all. "It" in this case ecompassing a range of elements from a working knowledge of the magic of the lectric flux to ethnic and cultural diversity.
