[which-qsmp-egg-would]

Time for the March Summary!

First of, the egg that haunts my dreams,

Richarlyson

For the 3rd month in a row, with 13/62 polls won last month, Richas has been voted most likely to:

Eat a random nut/berry/bug he found outside

Aim for the head during dodgeball

Intentionally cough/sneeze on someone while sick

Pick up something gross and chase his siblings around with it

Play computer games in class instead of doing his school work

Play football indoors and accidentally break a family relic

Play Julius Ceasar in a recreation of the Ides of March

Love a cursed food combination

Hunt down islanders that aren't wearing green on St. Patrick's Day

Pretend to be possessed to scare a sibling/parent

Refuse to wear shoes, even in the woods

Be the Rico (Penguins of Madagascar) of the island

Be covered in band-aids all the time

I do not know how he managed to win this many without me noticing. I think he's stealing trophies from me when I'm not looking.

Dapper

Wait, what? Even I wasn't expecting our favorite literal-demon child to win 2nd! With 11/62 polls won, Dapper has been voted most likely to:

Read Wikipedia articles for fun

Berate adults for coughing into their hand

Be a "Home Alone" protagonist

Love "Doctor Who"

Read Homestuck

Make a recreation of the Ides of March

Actually catch a leprechaun on Saint Patrick's Day

NOT have to sing the alphabet song to remember what order the letters are in

Love the Sherlock Holmes books

Know everything about demon folklore and scare everyone with their knowledge of it

Be determined to find every single easter egg at the island-wide easter egg hunt

She's a nerd, what else is there to say?

Chayanne & Pepito

Tied for 3rd, with 6/62 polls won each! Chayanne has been voted most likely to:

Love Hockey

Hyperfixate on the Percy Jackson series

Be a try-hard in P.E. class

Start a game of King Of The Hill everytime the school replaces the woodchips at recess

Fight with a teacher over a test grade

Sleep through fasting all day

Only look for the difficult to find eggs so their younger siblings can have fun at the Easter egg hunt

And Pepito has been voted most likely to:

Lose every round of Hide N' Seek because Pepito can't stop giggling

Believe in the Tooth Fairy

Chase Pepito's own tail

Still not know how to swim

Actually break a leg during a school play on accident

Eat paper because Pepito thinks it tastes good

One of the oldest eggs tying with one of the youngest. It's perfect.

Sunny

With 5/62 polls won, I'm sure Sunny is a little miffed that she's ended up in 4th. But it's okay, you all are sure to put her in 1st place one of these months. Sunny has been voted most likely to:

Secretly paint their closet an obnoxious color

Have a fashion show using her parents' clothes

Sleep with all of their stuffed animals so they don't get lonely

Treat the masjid shoe racks as their own personal shoe store

Have an imaginary friend

Tallulah, Ramón, & Pomme

Tying for 5th, with 4/62 polls won each, I'm very happy to see Pomme winning her first ever polls! And a total of 4 of them, no less! Tallulah has been voted most likely to:

Try and dye her own hair (making a huge mess)

Fit the main character role in "Coraline"

Perform Tarot card readings

Catch bees to pet them

Ramón has been voted most likely to:

Be obsessed with cowboys and the Wild West

Race to recalibrate the SmartBoard at school

Set up an elaborate rube goldberg machine to suprise a parent for their birthday

Have a space hyperfixation and want to be an astronaut

And Pomme has been voted most likely to:

Be a monster at PaintBall

Hyperfixate on Splatoon

Be very meticulous while coloring in a coloring book

Write a book

I think there's a pattern with that last one.

Leonarda

With 3/62 polls won, Leonarda has been voted most likely to:

Be obsessed with Power Rangers

Be into ice skating

Read every single Warrior cats books

I don't have anything funny to say here, It's hard to pay attention while listening to Ze Frank talk about coral kkkkkkkk

Empanada

With 2/62 polls won, Empanada has been voted most likely to:

Spend recess burying herself in woodchips and sleeping

Have Batik as a hobby

Oh hey, it's the first time Empanada's gone a full month without winning a poll about sweets!

Chunsik

Finally, our youngest has won a poll! With 1/62 polls won, Chunsik has been voted most likely to:

Be exempt from a Federation experiment because he politely declines it

What a polite kid!

...

...

That's it, right? That's all the eggs. All 11 eggs, all 62 polls for the month of March

...

Why does my clipboard say I'm missing two polls.....

...

Oh! Yes!

Juanaflippa & Bobby

In an absolutely unprecedented event, Juanaflippa AND Bobby have become our first ever dead eggs to win a canonical poll, with 1/62 win each! Juanaflippa has been voted most likely to:

Have a million allergies during the spring

And Bobby has been voted most likely to:

Get BANNED from playing Bulldog

It's still insane to me that you all managed to get these two a win. Bobby was going up against RICHARLYSON for void's sake. You all were fighting against the current on that one.

See you all soon!

[pumpkin-genocide]

Hey you, you should check out “Abnormal Nights in Gotham”!!

Hey guys, I’m Roy, one of the main producer behind my new DC story podcast called “Abnormal Nights in Gotham.” Honestly, every night is an abnormal night for Gotham but you want to know what’s even more abnormal? Our production team!! No actually please someone save me they have so many eyes and legs I think my production team actually are monsters someone help me-

For people who aren’t so sure of if they’ll like this story, here’s a quick summary for you to get a taste of what we are all about!

“Terf Day” is coming up in Gotham. Every year, on New Years Eve, all the criminals drop their territories and fight for new territories. This keeps peace between them all, and anyone who goes against this system usually end up dead. This year, there seem to be some changes. All the gimmicked criminals are loose, Arkham Asylum is almost fully empty, and alliances are being made between criminals.

28-year-old Dr Ernest Ruby-Blu is a new psychologist at Arkham Asylum, wanting nothing more than to help the criminally insane. But he soon finds out that’s not how things are run in Gotham. Most believe they can’t be cured, and Arkham Asylum has just became another corrupt jail. He is now dead set on a mission to show Gotham that these people can be redeemed and he will go any lengths to prove that.

Meanwhile, a familiar face shows up into town after an absence in the criminal field for over 7 years. Elijah Clystone, aka “Ellie”, isn’t exactly a new criminal. He is known more as an urban legend, a man who knows too much and asks for bloody favors as payment for said information. No one knows exactly what his intentions are, but rumors around town say he has some new plans for Gotham.

Former district attorney Harvey Dent is battling against Two Face, being business partners with Oswald Cobblepot (more known as the Penguin) for more than 3 years by now. Harvey still wants to help Gotham after all these years, as Two Face wanting nothing but a false sense of harmony through violence.

Edward Nygma’s (formerly Edward Nashton and now known as the Riddler) spiral into madness continues and his hatred towards Jervis Tetch (now known as The Mad Hatter) only grows. He doesn’t know how long he can keep his peace with Oswald and Harvey, so he starts looking for new allies with others such as Dr Jonathan Crane (formerly a Arkham Asylum employee now known as the Scarecrow) and Julius Day (now known as Calendar Man).

Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, and Vicky Vale seem to have their own plans for Gotham. A new act called “Feldzeig’s Follies” comes into town at the cabana in Chinatown. Killer Moth is back into town as well? Scarecrow has been absent for a while. Allies are formed, schemes take shape, and betrayals are planned every day. Terf Day is coming up fast, how will Ernest prove to Gotham he can help the infamously unredeemable? Who will survive? Who will fall?

I’ll be making more posts about our crew and the podcast in general, but I hope you all enjoy our little show! In the end, we are just a couple of buddies who are having fun and voicing some characters! (Also if my grammar is wack and this all kinda sucks, I’m really sorry I’m still trying to figure out tumblr and I literally suck at writing things without making 1027202729 grammar mistakes 😭)

[wardencommanderrodimiss]

So anyway, I write as if I've been blogging any of these Three Frat Houses Extended Universe thoughts instead of letting them stew in my head until suddenly I spring a post on us--

I think the way Ishtar joins in on the Jugdral main cast is that she and Julius are like, 12, and friends on Neopets or Club Penguin or tumblr or whatever. And both of them could use a serious lecture on internet safety because they are way too upfront with each other about their ages and what city they live in and everything else to the point that when Ishtar is like "ugh my mom is such a bitch :\ wish I was old enough to move out like my brother", Julius responds, in complete seriousness "you should come live with me! I bet my parents wouldn't mind ^.^ they're nice!"

And then both of them, in complete seriousness, start figuring out the logistics of getting Ishtar from Freige to Chalphy when she does not have money and Julius does not have a credit card that he can use to purchase a train ticket online and email it to Ishtar, and everyone Julius does ask him to help buy a train ticket, instead of just helping, gives him a lecture on "internet safety" and "stranger danger" and "you have no way of knowing this is not a ploy for an evil cult to kidnap you and steal your blood".

But he and Ishtar definitely pull it off...somehow, and the next thing Sigurd and Deirdre know, this girl just shows up at the house with Julius and he's like "hey this is my friend Ishtar! her mom sucks so can she stay with us?" :D

Once they sit down and sort through everything they realize. "wait a second. you're Tailtiu's estranged brother's daughter" which is definitely like. some whole other thing to deal with. Arvis spends his whole week at his nebulous Grannvalian government job, where Bloom and Hilda are two of his coworkers, having to listen to Hilda complain about her "ungrateful bitch of a daughter" who ran away, and then Friday morning he gets a call from Azelle who's like "hey! Tailtiu and the kids and I are heading to down to Chalphy for the weekend to meet Ishtar - Tailtiu's niece, we've never met her before because" vague sound implying past familial drama "but she's staying with Deirdre and Sigurd now, and I thought hey, since the whole family is gonna be in Chalphy, maybe you want to swing by?"

and Arvis says "what do you mean she's in Chalphy" and he sits there listening to Hilda and Bloom having another screaming match in the boardroom next door and he thinks oh. so this is Sigurd's fault. somehow. of course.

Okay, Disney. Here’s my pitch: The Muppet Star Wars Trilogy. Remake the original three movies — Episodes IV - VI — and only those three, replacing all actors with Muppets except for the following.

Darth Vader: The main bad guy of any Muppet movie is always a human actor, so we shall keep this tradition. But the man in the suit must absolutely, unequivocally be Hayden Christensen. This is not up for debate. He’s earned it. Use that James Earl Jones AI for the voice if you want. (The Emperor should, of course, be portrayed by Pepe the King Prawn.)

Jabba the Hut: I think the absolutely funniest thing Disney could do in a Muppet Star Wars remake is get a big fat Irish guy to play Jabba the Hut. In fact, let’s keep it in the Star Wars family. Jabba should be played by Brendan Gleeson.

Yoda: He’s already kind of a Muppet, so we could keep him. But I think it would be much funnier if Yoda was played by a live action Frank Oz. Just regular human Frank Oz using his normal speaking voice, but still talking all backwards.

Muppet Cast Luke Skywalker: Piggy is obviously going to be Leia so Kermit should not be Luke. Luke should be played by Walter from the 2011 movie.

Princess Leia: Miss Piggy. Duh. Weren’t you just listening?

Han Solo: This is where we will cast Kermit.

Chewbacca: Fozzie Bear.

C-3PO & R2-D2: Bunsen & Beaker.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Pops.

Grand Moff Tarkin: Sam the Eagle.

General Dodonna: Rowlf the Dog. We will also use him for General Rieekan in TESB and General Madine in ROTJ.

Wedge Antilles: Scooter

Figrin D’Ann and The Modal Nodes: Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. They will also play the Max Rebo Band in ROTJ.

Uncle Owen & Aunt Beru: Wayne & Wanda.

Stormtroopers: Penguins.

Lando Calrissian: Gonzo the Great. It means we have to wait a movie to get him, but the casting is too perfect.

Lobot and Cloud City security: Camilla and chickens.

Boba Fett: Lew Zealand.

Emperor Palpatine: Pepe the King Prawn, as mentioned.

Rancor: Sweetums.

Salacious Crumb: Rizzo the Rat.

Gammorean Guards: Link Hogthrob, Julius Strangepork, other pigs.

Mon Mothma: Annie Sue.

Admiral Ackbar: Swedish Chef.

Ewoks: Let’s just make them look like the actual Ewoks but Muppets instead of little people in suits.

Make it happen, Disney!
