    Wow, this is fun looking…Off to read all the stuffs (like What I must know and How I must behave :wink: ). This proves to be a much more entertaining diversion for the nest 30 minutes than watching yesterday’s missed chemistry lecture….Less productive, I’m sure, but much more entertaining

    First post?

  2. Luna the Lovely says:

    2-*sniff* Too late for that! I shall attend it later today. I must print out a new outline for it, anyway, and haven’t the time now.

    Oh, and by the way, my dear Ekoeli (and I just realized that is E. Coli, lol–and sorry for the chatspeak, but the lol smiley has been destroyed…), I have been sorted into your house. And am committed to breaking rules…

  3. Luna the Lovely says:

    Advanced age?!?!?! I shall have you know, I am only 19. And given that you darling GRIMs know not how to spell GAPA, nor that it was the Hare and Hedgepig, how is it that you come to know that I am one of the older MBers of yore?

    And I do believe I am setting an excellent example: play first, study later. You are only young once. Enjoy it while it lasts. Never do to day what can be put off until tomorrow. Unless it’s fun. Then do it today, and tomorrow as well.

    But still make sure to maintain good grades, and respect those deserving of respect, or you will not have a good adult life, etc, etc. (There, see? Something helpful…)

    • Naturally, as administrators we are privy to your admissions papers, which suggest that chronologically speaking, you are one of the older Studgers and thereby expected to exhibit greater maturity. Of course, for the same reason you have been deprived of our tutelage for too long. But I am always an optimist, in spite of my pessimistic nature, and believe that no child is beyond our reach.

  4. Cinnamoon says:

    Ms. Snorgswattle, may inquire as to what, exactly, the Filboid Studge company does?

  5. Errata says:

    Hello. This is almost purely for discovering whose house I am in, so as to discover exactly how to annoy my leader show my leader proper respect.
    (Did the strikes work? I never tried them before… *crosses fingers*

  6. Errata says:

    Apologies for posting twice in a row.
    I am a Snortswagle. Snortswattle, I am deeply sorry for my blunder. Why! I made yet another mistake! Ms. Snorgswattle. There we go. I shall go repeat the name a hundred times to ensure I remember it.
    Snorgswattle Snorgswattle Snorgswattle…

  7. Errata says:

    Oh, and at risk of in order to post thrice in a row, I tell Luna that her later advice has nothing interesting in it, and her earlier advice is much better. I add, Never take responsibility, Always blame somebody else, Be careful to spill your food, Be completely sloppy, and never, ever behave.

  8. Cat's Meow says:

    Heya, GRIMS! I’m sorry to say that I’ve already broken your dress code, because my pajama pants have brightly colored whales on them. If only they were faded gray and muddy white! :(

    Haha, anybody remember the rebellion against DisneyBlog last year at the H&H? That, my friends, was fun.

  9. Errata says:

    I feel the GRIMMs are ignoring me. And I have never yet had a striken post. I shall have to remedy this. *sets up numerous traps involving eggs, water, cockroaches, pits full of plastic snakes, and other nasties*

    Well, that was fun. I should return to school, but I cannot help but stay here and annoy GAPAs. ::D:

  10. Errata says:

    That didn’t work, how do you do smilies? Oh, just like this? :D Did that work? Anyway, insert smiley at end of last post.

  11. Cat's Meow says:

    Okay, 12:06pm, huh? 1+2+0+6=9, so I must be a Snorgswattle! Wheee!

    Hey, any other Snorgswattles on here? We should throw a wickedly awesome party for all of the new members. ;)

    [A moment of silence would suffice. — U.S.]

  12. Errata says:

    I am a Snorgswattle. Two already! I believe we are the house with the most members so far. Yes, we should. Perhaps we should ask the GRIMs for instructions on how to throw a Studge-approved party. Is there such a thing?

  13. Cat's Meow says:

    15 – Who cares if it’s Studge-approved? Let’s par-tay. ;^)

    !!!
    GRIMS! I have noticed something terrible. Surely randomness is not condoned by thyselves, however this thread is supposed to inspire conversation about “subjects that interest you”. I am quite certain that those are not approved discussion topics!

    I insist you remedy this at once.

  14. Koppar says:

    Oh dear. These “Sludge” people are asking me to do things I can’t. *eats bar of dark chocolate* *slouches over keyboard* So, now I’m going to be rebellious and sing the unofficial Coontz House song, out of loyalty to the GAPAs.
    The Uruk-hai Marching Song
    Here we come, now you die,
    We’re the fighting Uruk-hai
    And our soldiers are marching along!
    Rip and tear, maul and crush,
    Slice our en-e-mies to mush
    As our soldiers go marching along!
    So it’s KILL! KILL! KILL!
    It gives us such a thrill.
    Our numbers, you know, are thousands strong.
    And we just can’t wait
    To maim and desecrate
    As our soldiers come marching along!!

    Is pie-throwing outlawed? What about reading books by J.R.R. Tolkien? What about speaking in Elvish? Does “cake” count as bad language? :idea: ((Please work, O Hot-Pink Bunny Smiley, evil though thou art. For thou art the emblem of the MuseBlog, which mine eyes rejoice to see.))

  15. Cat's Meow says:

    17 – I can’t remember the Spector House Song, although it’s the one that Alice, IBCF, and I sang during our Kokon. I think POSOC wrote it, but I don’t really remember how it went. :oops:

    Anybody want to help me throw a party for all of the new Studgers?

  16. Luna the Lovely says:

    18–I’ll help with a party! As an older, mature, “responsible” member, I shall make sure that the party is perfectly up to Studge standards. Lots of fizzy beverages, chocolate, and only brightly colored clothing that is completely casual (and against dress code) shall be allowed.

    Anything goes. Anybody behaving in a boring, dull, or GRIM-like banner shall be kicked out in the name of fun.

    Whadda ya say?

    [do you know, I am having more fun on here than I’ve had on MB in awhile. Don’t get me wrong, MB is wonderful, but this, this awesomeness inspires delightful scheming rebellion, which makes my poor heart rejoice. Of course, I’m sure it will be nice when dear Robert gets MB back up and de-virused, as well, but in the mean time? This beats MA.]

    Oh,hey, I’m inventing a new kind of point: First Post points. I’ve racked up quite a few today, having posted first on every thread on here that I know of, except the tearoom, where our dear umbilical cord posted first, because the menu was a post….Must add ’em up.

  17. Cat's Meow says:

    19 – Okay, sounds fun! Should we start setting up in the Tearoom?

  18. bookgirl_me says:

    My definition of neatness is the following:

    Opposite of chaos, but you still can’t find anything ’cause you have to remember how you oganized it.

    My definition of hard work:

    Stuff you have to do when you can’t think of a good excuse, which is perfectly acceptable a few times a year but DON’T DO THIS ALL THE TIME !”, since
    a) it’s really tiring
    and
    b) you´ll feel really stupid when everyone else parties and you sit and do much more work than nessecary and get a fractional amount of extra credit,which, in retrospect, isn’t worth it.

    Hmmm… I just eanted to mention one thing. There’s a Vienna slang saying:
    The older the school, the wilder the pranks…

    The school rules don’t prohibit pranks, so I’ll make the prank grid and “muhaha” start planning… :twisted:

    Today, at my real school, we pranked our german teacher by collecting newspaper, ripping out the pages then taping them together into a big sheet and guleing the sheet inside the doorframe, hoping the teacher would come in fast and not notice it until it was to late. Unfortunately, she noticed and we’d run out of tape before we could glue it to the side of the doorframe.In the end, those who had made it walked through it themselves on pourpose to see how it felt.

    The second prank was to tape a cellphone with the song “Right ’round” as ringtone to the top of the hanging lamps near the celing and call it- it went off a total of four times, but we were stooped from singing along by the glare of our teacher, who accepted pranks “in moderation.”

    We also tried to change the clock to be five minutes early, but N. broke it while taking it ddown and it worked for several minutes, then stopped, making it rather contraproductive.

    One of the best “pranks” was played on our latin teacher.She was passing out worksheets, and A.hid his and said he hadn’t got one, telling the teacher: “How could you forget about me !” The teacher gave him another one, reassuring him that he was quite memorable. A few minutes later A. came to the teacher again and asked for the sheet. The teacher gave him a total of four sheets without noticing it, and since A. was stopped by us (his classmates) from asking for more, we will never know how many she would have given him without noticing it, though the estimates are around seven since that was the number of students absent, to whom we have neglected to mention that we’d changed our prank plan from cutting school and going shoping to staying in school and annoying the teachers.

    Oh, and the chemistry teacher turned up in sunglasses for “no apparent reason”, even though it was very cloudy.

    Now I’ll enroll, since I wanted to say all that before I did as not to get suspended.

  19. Luna the Lovely says:

    20–Great!

  20. Luna the Lovely says:

    I posted first on 5 of 6 (obvious) threads on here, and ten “hidden” ones. I posted first twice on the hidden ones, but for some reason the evil GRIMs saw fit to zap them all times. Not sure why. I was totally on topic. *is confuzzled*

    So, by all rights, I should have 15 FP points.

  21. Cat's Meow says:

    21 – I’m on Spring Break today, so I didn’t get a chance to go to school. =[

    One time, in fourth grade, my teacher went on a cruise for the entire first week of April. That poor substitute!

    Actually, I’m a little glad not to have had school today, because A might have found use for the cheese she’s been rotting in my locker for a month.

  22. Cat's Meow says:

    SFTDP

    23 – “Hidden” threads?

  23. Koppar says:

    11- DisneyBlog? They do this every year???? And you mentioned a rebellion….Details, please.
    17- I’ll help! I’ll help!!
    Excuse me, GRIMs, but you failed to cross out my extremely rebellious post. Or answer any of my questions, for that matter. I’m also not on “Who Is Here”.
    23- Hidden threads?

  24. Cat's Meow says:

    25 – Yeah, pretty much. Last year MuseBlog was totally Disney-fied. I bet we could call upon our old friends to liven up StudgeBlog if we really wanted to.

  25. Luna the Lovely says:

    25–Yes, 10. Although once you hit upon the first, the others are obvious. I’m very miffed, though, as to why both times I first posted (legitimately!) on ’em, the GRIMs zapped….

  26. Cat's Meow says:

    28 – What are they about? How do you get to them?

    • Miss Lovely has been poking around in the lumber room, thereby earning herself and her house 50 demerits. Do not do likewise, Miss Meow and Mr. Bookworm. Posts sent from utility threads are automatically classified as spam.

  27. Mr. Bookworm says:

    Praytell,where are the hidden threads?

  28. Luna-50demerits/15FP says:

    29, 30–I shan’t show you exactly where. They are easily accessible from the homepage. As any good link should, the mouse turns into a hand when you pass over ’em.

    Theyr’e really not about anything, per se…You’ll understand when you get there.

    31–E. Coli, my dear friend. I do thank you very much for the 50 demerits. However, I do not see why you insisted upon removing my posts on the dear hidden threads.

  29. Mr. Bookworm says:

    Miss Luna, are you referring to the threads of blocks and such? Mr Morgrool doesn’t want us to go there, for it is not a nice place. Why do you undermine his authority as a GRIM?

  30. Luna-50demerits/15FP says:

    33–Shush. Don’t go spilling secrets to everyone. They’re supposed to learn these things on there own. And of course it is that of which I speak. I undermine E. Coli’s authority, because I have no need of such nasty things as diseases. By being all prim and proper, the GRIMs have instantly created a thread of anarchy, as we all refuse to submit to their every whim. If they even ahve whims. They are the equivalent of Dolores Jane Umbridge, and worthy of no more respect than she. Don’t worry, when they come back as GAPAs, I will love them and respect them just as much as before. For now? I having too much fun.

  31. Luna-50demerits/15FP says:

    So. I sent an email this morning requesting history notes from yesterday’s lecture as I was unable to attend (on an airplane), and I’ve got four emails w/ notes already. If I said this already, sorry… I should have enough to compose a decent set of notes for the lecture, although I still feel like I’m not getting as much as if I’d been there. I don’t be notes wise, just that I get so much more out of it when I actually am there and listening to my prof talk.

    My mom got me this awesomely wonderful little Potter book bag for my b-day. It arrived yesterday, before I got back to schoo. It’s this sort of navy green, and has the Dumbledore’s Army emblem on it. ’tis really cool and awesome. I absolutely love it. It is, as a Potter thing, absolutely splendiferous and flamablamablous.

  32. purplefinch says:

    This is brilliant. Horrible, but brilliant. :D

    I’ll just go and sing very loudly, or perhaps put on some overalls and a hat.
    “Yo! Where did the Gappas go?”

  33. Vendaval says:

    Hello fellow students.
    It is almost a pleasure to join you here at Filboid Studge.
    26- Although I do detect both excessive exclamation and interrogation in your post, I shall do my best to aid a classmate. Museblog had a long tradition of unproductive pranks that almost always interrupted the learning process. And the music! Oh the horror!

    34- Do you refer to the categorical archives?

    Required reading:
    Saki
    Roal Dahl (specifically the autobiographical).

  34. Vendaval says:

    Oh dear, please forgive me, enlightened GRIMs! I have misspelled Mr. Dahl’s name. His surname is correct, but his given name is “Roald

  35. Syllabub says:

    I was expecting something like this to happen. I am most sorry to say that all of the clothes I OWN break the dress code! :razz:

    Hmm, I wonder what a pie smiley looks like…. :arrow: :!:

  36. Luna-50demerits/15FP says:

    38–no, no, I don’t believe so.

  37. Vixen's Moon says:

    I am very pleased to see that things have finally stepped up around here. It is wonderful that there will be no more sloppiness, and the absolute voidness of colour on this page makes this page much easier on my eyes than before.

  38. Sunrunner Bramblewood says:

    On a completely un-fun note, I just got to watch ‘Supersize Me’, for my school’s wellness day. Let me assure you, Mr. Morgrool and Ms. Snorgswattle, that it was not fun at all. Education was the name of the game today.

  39. nolagirl7 says:

    This is absolutely lovely! I’m delighted!

  40. Luna-50demerits/15FP says:

    I told my sister to come visit, to see the awesomeness the blog had been transformed into….She didn’t seem impressed. She told me: “I really am not into deciphering crazy mb speech and it’s not all that interesting to me.” & “your crazy properness drives me nuts”

    I am laughing so hard. My sis is clearly not a born MBer.

  41. Mr. Beavo says:

    “LOL”, as the youngsters these days say.

    I’d just like to make a statement that I not only find this Studgery extremely valuable to our online community, I beleive we should imply it on the entire world. Any politicial willing to uphold this philosophy as his main platform will have my vote.

  42. Kokonilly says:

    I looked at this and thought – What happened? AAAHHHH!

    Then I remembered that it was April Fool’s Day. ;)

  43. the mole says:

    I was not here last april, so is this a thing for the year of random celebrations or just a april fools joke?

  44. Kokonilly says:

    All of the smileys are the same as :| !!!

    o.0

  45. Vendaval says:

    40- Yes, I checked.

  46. Logogeo96 says:

    Yo, Studgys!

  47. Luna-50demerits/15FP says:

    40–My apologies. I meant post 37. I do not believe that my hidden threads are the archives.

  48. Brown Pan says:

    Hello, Studgers!

    I am Brown Pan. Before I started attending Studge Academy, I was Purple Panda; however, I have now taken up the name Brown Pan, because it is much more suited to life as a Studger. Purple is not “sober,” as the GRIMs would say, and Pans are much more appropriate than Pandas.

    Today, I woke up at an early hour and took a cold shower. I was fully intending to take a warm shower, I must admit, but it seems that that isn’t even an option here at Studge Academy. I had English, Spanish, and Physics class today, and they were all very difficult. I also enjoyed a nice afternoon of writing studio, in which I revised a ten-minute play about an Indian sweatshop.

    Farewell for now,
    Brown Pan

  49. Cocoa Pills says:

    Hello, Brown Pan! I myself was Kokonilly only a short while ago, then realized that neither ‘koko’ nor ‘nilly’ are sober, therefore it should be changed. While cocoa-flavored pills are hardly any better, I do believe it will go overlooked.

    Now, I must leave to write a script.

    Good-bye for now.

  50. I can't fit my name! says:

    Helloooooo…
    It’s fishy, BUT IT WON’T LET ME WRITE MY FULL NAME!!
    Perhaps I shall go to the campus counselor and tell en how I feel about that.

    Or not.
