Surely that would mean Pie can spell and adhere to normal laws of grammar like the rest of us, which raises a question: Why won't he do it on the boards? 8)

Because he is in fact a man in his sixties (now I'm talking with Cantr-terms.. sigh!) who shields his identity behind lies of age and grammar and maturity... Perhaps he's even a literate. But that'd be pushing it, ey?
Nakranoth's "evil" character says:
"Thief! That's terrible! *shakes his head* That would hurt people's feeling if I did that."

Actually, I've often had the thought that Pie's forum-based syntactical problems were feigned and deliberate rather than accidental. Maybe that's giving him too much credit.

But there's this novel many of you have probably heard of -- "Everything Is Illuminated" by Jonathan Safran Foer -- in which the protagonist, a Ukrainian, speaks English in the most hilarious way imaginable. As someone who has frequented the former Soviet Union, I can say that Foer's parody is spot-on -- the mistakes he has his character makes are well within the realm of possibility. But the frequency with which he makes them, and their almost unerring and unending hilarity, wouldn't be encountered in real life. That's the artist at work, taking something that is funny and making it into caricature for literary effect.

So, I give you Pie: a diabolically clever savant who dupes us all with his sidesplitting, but too-over-the-top-to-be-true, linguistic gymnastics. Bravo, Pie. I think Foer won a Pulitzer or some other prize for that book, and so I hereby dub you the inaugural recipient of the Cantr II Forum Prize for Spelling Excellence. A free pass to any neighborhood Stucky's is included in the award package.

Hm... I'd like to know who plays a man named Harry. He is currently in some mountains. *looks at Pie* Maybe?

Zoe is alive and well, spending her days making the markers herself. Irritating git.

I completly forgot her method, even when reading her own notes. Still, all the markers have that "In loving memory of ..." so that she'll be remembered, not nessecarily meaning she is dead...

I look forward to being able to deface markers and monuments, let's just say... :twisted:
