The Rum Rebellion's fermented thread

A BARBIE TOO FAR

Evil Steve stood tall in the dock – squared jawed, nobly browed, devilishly handsome. A tearstained gaggle of the galaxy’s most beautiful women embarked on the latest craze of synchronised swooning.

The Metaverse Supreme Court was in session. Seven of the most respected emperors glared down on Evil Steve – the wise wizard, Ray the Wanderer, ol’ iron paw, Wild Wombat, the drum-skinned G-Force, the corny Surther, the inscrutable Jedi Master Yoda, Paguma, Lord of the Undead , the wily strategist, Sirian.

“Evil Steve”, intoned Ray majestically, “You iz charged, ahem, you are charged with being a crap emperor.”

“How do you plead?” intoned Wombat ferrously.

“Dis court iz h’incontintutional”, fumed Evil Steve majorly.

“Your airing of your personal problem is casting a major cloud over Metaverse relationships”, gasped Ray palely.

“You ANZACs need to show some respect”, coughed Wombat sickly.

“Who iz top dog ‘ere?” squirted Evil Steve wetly, knowing full well that the lead, like his underwear, was hotly contested.

“Further to the charge of being a crap emperor,” intoned Ray momentarily, “you are also charged with being a POM pretending to be an Aussie pretending to a be a Cambridge educated Jewish entertainer pretending to be a gangsta rapper.”

“How do you plead”, intoned Wombat suddenly.

“Iz we talkin’ off camera?” roared Evil Steve blackly.

“Right that’s it,” roared Ray magnificently, “you are sentenced to……”

“Not so fast, wizard,” roared Evil Steve pointedly. An uzi gleamed unnaturally in his beautifully formed fist. “I iz only pretendin’ to be h’incontinent so dat you iz not searchin’ me pipe.”

CRASH

The ANZACs burst into the courtroom, uzis out.

“Right lads,” roared Evil Steve gorgeously, “let’s show ‘em some respect!”

BAKKA BAKKA ACK ACK BAKKA BAKKA ACK ACK BAKKA BAKKA

MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Evil Steve suddenly woke from his two week coma and dug his way out of a pile of empty tinnies. The rest of the ANZACs fidgeted and scratched in the ANZAC bunker.

“All hail Evil Steve,” they roared introspectively.

Evil Steve sniffed the air. Incense. Something was terribly wrong.

“Hey Evil Steve,” minced the mighty Stydracos, “have a look at my embroidery.”

“No Evil Steve,” minced the glowing LavaLampMaster, “have a look at my macramé.”

“Please Evil Steve,” minced the capital Never-Never, “I insist you gaze upon my origami. Look it’s in the shape of an uzi”

Evil Steve pinched himself. The booze had been plundered and the bunker looked like a CWA meet. He’d only been away 2 weeks and the whole gang had turned into butty-boys.

“Right that’s it,” roared Evil Steve homeopathically. “Da Metaverse is payin’ us no respect, and so we iz not respectin’ da Metaverse! Oil up yer uzis”

“Huzzah,” roared the ANZACs instantly.

Evil Steve tossed over the empty tinnies.

“Get workin’ on da helmets. We iz rebellin’”, roared Evil Steve. “At least until we get our booze back.”

Rebelious rum is a pain. It won't stay put so you have to chase it around the bar to get a sip! :d

Captain Flash sat on the sidewalk in a trenchcoat. He held up a sign which read "Whill expoze genitels fur rum".

Two women walking past looked down at him, and began to giggle. Captain Flash looked down at himself, then up again.

"Wot? Itz not a sock. I'll show you."

He jumped up and opened his trench-coat. The women screamed and ran off. Captain Flash waved his fist at them and screamed, "Oy! Youse owe me sum rum!"

:SURPRISED:

the plan, fellow ANZACs, iz to run the Rum Rebellion for a couple of weeks, just for a larf. the theme is Bushrangers, so feel free to visit the top seven empires for a bail-up (aussie for 'stand and deliver')

i'm expectin' you all to be 'dandy highwaymen' for a couple of weeks if you're ready and willing.

obviously crankin' out some games will help too!

if you want, do a google search on Bushrangers to get some info - you can change your name temporarily (as i have) to a number of names eg Captain Midnite, Captain Thunderbolt, Captain Moonlight etc etc

have fun!

:CONGRAT: ;)

"Right Lads," roared Capt Flash as he dumped a swag of jewelry on the table, "I've robbed and snogged the empress' of The Specials, The Ringers, The Undead, The Euros, The RudeBoys, The MWC and The Jedi and the drinks are on ME."

"Huzzah", roared da Rebels fluidly.

"Me dogs are killin' me," roared Capt Flash as he downed the rum and slumped on the table. "What we need iz a cunnin' plan."

Capt Flash carved out the major bail-up routes on the table with a knife.

"I iz needin' volunteers - say one active and one not-so-active - to 'arrass each of da Top Seven at will. Who iz up for it?" roared Capt Flash fumily.

It gave me a bit of a shock logging on and not finding the original empire name.

Good idea though, but i think i'll stick to my Wild Turkey.

Can the Fellowship get Captain Boogie? We need some dance lessons over at the Prancing Pony! LOL

Have fun with the Rebellion!
Reply #21 Top
Well, Captain Boogie learned his trade in the Captain Flash School of Dance - I'm not sure if he's the sort of dancer you want. He charges $20 for a private dance, $50 for three songs. That's pretty steep for a rummy who can't even stand straight.
