Remember that One Thing Archive

 

This is where remembered things go once they've been forgotten again

Hey.... does anybody have any of the logos for "the wizbits" cartoon? I know they ran through about 15 during the course of the show, but has anybody uploaded any?

 

I seem to recall reading an interesting article about Brahe's use of Mountains as an ingenuous philosophical allegory of Epic proportions, particularly in Book 1 and Book 4. Indeed, mountains seem to be a recurring theme in his work, almost on par with all things furniliar. Unfortunately, I'm not very philosophically-minded and can't remember any of the details...
Oh, man, there's so much here, I don't know what you're referring to. I actually did a paper on the Pastapharian symbolism of Mount Windice in Book 1 for a media studies class in college, so I'll tackle that first. For one thing, you have the creation of the mountain during the Fourth Breaken. Two items to note here: first, Windice was one of the Fully Formed, which implies divine pre-meditation (a tenet of FSM); second, the Breaken is invariably described in violent terms, indicating the radical change necessary to shift from one state-of-being into another. Together, these elements of the birth of Mount Windice allude to the process of Automated Creationism: the divine inspiration (or meta-existance) of the mountain has always existed in the paradigmatical uberverse, but the act of calling it into existence required radical, inexplicable change in conventionally accepted planar existence. Is that the sort of thing you're looking for? I'm not even getting into the paradoxical duality of the icy Fires of Mount Windice, but it's a start. -Sean

 

Does anyone remember the names of the other Warrior Bards? Var Dolzeberg's awesomeness tends to overshadow the others.
Yeah, he rocks out in such a way as to render thought of other bards difficult...but not impossible! I dug up a few choice tidbits about Breng Halvertirimus, who I always admired for being such a good sport about not being the most awesome. I'm sure I remember a reference to at least one or two more...maybe in the original CCG? I'll keep looking, and let you know what I come up with. ~Courtney
I checked through my cards and found an old Violonus one, who I didn't recall. Then I did a search; he was the one with the purple frock coat, remember? I put up everything I could dig up on him but he was probably the least popular Warrior Bard

 

Wasn't there a live action show scheduled to be on FOX that was cancelled in pre-production?
Do you mean the one whose casting was set up to mirror American Idol or the one that was going to be a sitcom that was the same as all of the other ones on the networks?
Yes, but more... Epic...
It wasn't a localization of Una Hora de Acción con los Wizbits! was it?

 

Does anyone recall The Wizbits Cartoon drinking game?
Only the part where the cartoon is only good when drunk.
I think it involved 5 or more people and you drank every time one of them had a seizure
I remeber you would take a drink whenever you heard the word "elemenstruate", whenever Penny says "You pulled what out of where?", and two drinks whenever anyone was on fire.
There was that one where there were 4 people around a table, each time one would smack a bottle on the table, if it broke, the person sitting paralel to him/her would have to lick what was left in the bottle, shards and all. And the one with the drunken dwarfs and the snow, where the first dwarf to audiably breath had to drink a bottle of spirit and go outside to sleep in the snow for the night, I remember them saying "It builds character" and then in the morning "He was a fine character"

 

 

Anybody remember anything about that witch school? "Ahmawn Stick Witch University?"
Turns out it was in The Sickle.

 

I remember something in the early part of the novels about nut-glue..? I think it was used to heal a furniliar but I'm not sure.
Are you, perhaps, thinking of Vernynut-glue? -Wote
Thanks!
