::OFFICIAL:: Ugly Mug Thread IV

[LadyTerra]

Ummm.... ummmm.... well... I don't disclose that information. 

(Or rather, I have no idea what I would call such a thing)... 

I came up with a few, though I'm not sure if you'd like them:

Greatest Army of Gingers (or GAG).  "We will GAG your forces!"
Gingers Regarding International Politics (GRIP)  "We will GRIP the world!"
Army of United Gingers Under Some Treaty (AUGUST)
Gingers Of Netherlands, Ontario, Rochester, Russia, Harrisburg and Everywhere Alliance (GONORRHEA)

[Travis-AGA]

I like the first one... But there is only one army of gingers... So it would be Great Army of Gingers.

[LadyTerra]

For now, but what if a group branches off or someone else starts one?  You should assert your dominance right away if you don't want to lose members.  I hoped you'd pick GONORRHEA, though.  I worked hard on that one.   

I just realized I keep going on this tangent, so here's a picture of me with my sweetheart.

[koko_99_2001]

Ya'll are such a cute couple!

[Deloria]

Red hair may well be subjectively beautiful.  I'm just not.

  This is simply not true You are disarmingly beautiful.

I love you and your bias.

And you do make a very nice-looking couple.

[writerlove]

Very nice picture, Terra Y'all look relaxed and happy!

[Jafar]

Awwwww.

[Travis-AGA]

I think it is my turn to say.... Terra you look oddly familiar to me... Do I know you?

lol  

And you are right about GAG. And I did love your GONERRHEA one, but it may give the wrong impression on the Organized Redheaded Association of Numerous Ginger Enthusiasts (ORANGE) who currently control a number of countries that are in RUG (Redheaded Union of Gingers). Not sure if that works, but I thought I'd try to be clever.

That's right. ORANGE RUG.   And this is our appropriately named theme music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDQ7hXMLxGc

I've been sick all weekend--and when I'm sick, I have the most unusual sense of humor. I can't stop laughing at everything... especially at my own horrible jokes.

[LadyTerra]

   From now on, your group is ORANGE RUG.  Unfortunately, that tune is already taken in honor of Ernesto Che-Palmer, leader of our Communist Cult on Second Life.  My sweetie and I even wrote English-translation lyrics for it.

Here's a pic of my avatar admiring his banner before he found out about it and modestly took it down.  I was in the mood for pink hair that day.


By the way, thank you, everyone, for the compliments, even though he makes up all of the cute half of our relationship.

[Haids1987]

Your real name isn't Janie, is it, Terra?  (Yes, I'm being serious.  You actually DO look familiar to me! )

[Jafar]

I've created a monster with the familiar thing, haven't I?

Also, you're pretty, Terra. Don't argue, I hate it when people do that. *pokes Deloria*

Well... poo. By the way, can I just mention that the guy who composed the Soviet March (James Hannigan) that I linked is an absolutely amazing composer who rivals "more established" film composers. I frequently buy his soundtracks when they come out (He does, in my opinion, a better job at Harry Potter music than the current composer of the films).

ANYWAY. Fine, take your #$@!#$ song. ORANGE RUG allows this for one time only.

Cool Second Life pic, though! I've always been curious about Second Life, but just could never get into it.

[Jafar]

Second Life is WEIRD.
I couldn't recapture my afro, so I was a green-haired girl who terrorized people with a popgun and wore hippie clothes. I also pulled a horse's head out of nowhere and fell off a floating continent because I can't drive go-karts for beans.

.... What? Ya... I suppose it is weird... 

Seems like some kind of mind-altering substance... or mind-altering non-substance. 

[Jafar]

Well, I've only had a short experience with it. My friend had been bugging me to check it out, and I couldn't really stay into it without him around, despite all the weirdness. I mean, if someone even weirder than me came up and started talking to me, I dunno what I'd say. Or something. Something like a thing.






SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!

[LadyTerra]

The only reason I have a Second Life account was for an "alternative programming" class.  We essentially played around with Linden Script.  I made a working Warp Star, the heavily bearded guy in my first picture made teleportation pads, and my sweetie made a giant Pacman who followed people around and asked if they wanted to buy or sell human body parts.  My school mainly uses it for diversity classes for freshmen, but they wanted the CS students to make stuff to aid in those classes.

Hannigan did the Harry Potter score too?  Wow.  He is really talented.

And no, my name is not Janie.

[Travis-AGA]

Hannigan did the Harry Potter score too?  Wow.  He is really talented.

I suppose I should clarify... He did the video game scores for the last two games. He's much more talented than his film score counterpart for those said movies.

I've always wanted to take some of his music and overlay it into the last two films to see what they would be like (especially the big battle at the end of movie five).

[kindofdoon]

You're referring to John Williams? I disapprove.

[Travis-AGA]

Oh dear.

No, no, no... I'm being INCREDIBLY unclear lol.

James Hannigan scored the fifth and sixth Harry Potter games, but none of the others.

Nicholas Hooper scored the fifth and sixth films. Hooper tends to move away from what THE GREAT Mr. Williams did with the music.

James Hannigan not only returned the series to using John William's themes effectively, he has created new themes using John Williams original.

So, while Hooper abandons John Williams, Hannigan has done great work by being faithful and creating variants on the original themes.

If you were to listen to the soundtracks, you'd hear a bit of that... but unfortunately, the soundtracks don't contain anything that sounds "John Williamsy" because of copyright restrictions. If you want the whole James Hannigan experience, play the actual games... They're awful, but the music is awesome.

Hannigan's opening Theme in the soundtrack is A LITTLE like Williams. You can hear amazing similarities. Plus it is amazing. Check it-outify: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8celd-INyE,

The mods are gonna hate me... I'm terrible about staying on topic.

[kindofdoon]

Oh, I see. You are forgiven.
