Glad to hear it! It would be tragic if you were a pie lover and I was obligated to hate you.

So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

I'm a proud cake supporter.

One of us should write up a large rant on why cake is better :D

I think if you really want long, you should do it, Chaos....

Plus, I'd like to see a Chaos-rant on why cake is better....classic.

It's been a while since I've done a rant on cake, but I have done one before.

Perhaps it should be ChaosRant™.

Oh, come on, little wilson, you don't think I can prepare a good long rant? The only reason Chaos always has longer rants than me is that he gets off topic and includes other things in his rants.

It also depends on what you define as really long. I think anything above 1500 words is epic for a forum post. If you want a 20000 word essay, that's a little bit different.

Chaos, if you want to write it I'll write up a list tomorrow of all the reasons I can think of that cake is better, and send them to you. Or, I could do it, though I would appreciate your list of reasons if I do so. Between the two of us, we should be able to come with a rather extensive rant on the subject.

Together, we shall be unstoppable!

You should write the list. I have a cold and numerous headaches, so I'm not really in the mood to think up a big list. Hey, the headaches will just add to the "hazy thinking" that makes a ChaosRant™ so desired ;)

I'm sorry, Andrew. But Chaos' ChaosRant™s  just stand out more....And he's not too tangential (I love this word, by the way...).

And I look forward to reading it. Maybe so much thinking of the goodness of cake will make the headaches disappear....

Note to self: claim that cake is a cure-all. That'll win the people over!

I won't deny that. He's typically more groundbreaking with his rants/crazy theories than I am. Usually what happens is something like this.

1) Chaos sits at his computer reading posts from TWG
2) Chaos decides it is time for a good ChaosRant™
3) Chaos types extensively on a subject, listing various thoughts without ever really taking an opinion
4) Chaos begins taking opinions on the subject and adds them to the ChaosRant™
5) Chaos posts an epic-length ChaosRant™ to TWG for all of us to read and wonder at. We all read it and wonder at it. Then we read it again and wonder what exactly Chaos was thinking. Section 22x can't be correct, and section 398b contradicts a statement from Brandon.
6) Andrew decides to do and epic-reply to the ChaosRant™
7) Andrew steals most of Chaos' ideas, shuffles them around a little bit, organizes them into a theory that works, and posts it
8) Everyone reads it and says, "Hey, that works! I love/hate it!"
9) Andrew takes credit for stealing ideas and putting them in a great big post.  ;D

Oh, and there are other reasons his rants tend to stand out more. Like the fact that he's actually able to attempt to convey drama through text, which I haven't yet really attempted. Like the fact that his rants have a trademarked name, whilst mine are just epic p0sts...... You get the picture. If we could call my rants anything as exciting as ChaosRant™ then it might be another story. For now..... Yes.

Chaos, I'll send you a list in a bit. Right now, I have to go to a piano lesson.

EDIT: And I have yet again forgotten that 8 + ) = 8) . You'd think I'd learn to use a different numbering system....

That's not very nice, especially when directed at the person who's supposedly helping to fuel your upcoming ChaosRant™...

I'm kidding, of course. :P

I convey drama in my posts? Neat. I certainly never thought of that before.

You did in your last one anyway. I just sent you the list, so you can officially post your rant when you get it done.

Well, maybe in the first paragraph I had some drama. The rest is just incoherent rambling.  ::)

And I'm starting the ChaosRant™ right now.

EDIT: I estimate its completion tomorrow or Friday. I should probably do something with my short story today...
