Absolutely outrageous demands. She must be infected with that put-in virus, you know, the virus that can only be stopped by puttin sumthin into her?“Nothing much really,” she replies. “ I simply demand that my claim of innocence in causing the Great Crash be acknowledged and accepted once and for all. And, that I be crowned Queen of CruxForums, and that henceforth all of you lowlifes become my vassals. That I be given a never ending supply of quality Riesling to quaff at my leisure. And last but not least, that Monty and Twonines be forever prohibited from rhyming!”
In which case it's assonance ( Educating Rita : "[assonance] means getting the rhyme wrong" )I’ll have you know, my limericks rhyme perfectly unless they’re designed not to!
Just blame it to that third glass of Riesling, Barb drunk!Absolutely outrageous demands. She must be infected with that put-in virus, you know, the virus that can only be stopped by puttin sumthin into her?
Phew a scene that only narrowly avoided becoming another remake of the Alamo! Will Barb get everything she demands? What happens to the clones if their war-like frenzy is not required? Will @RacingRodent find something useful to say more often? Thank goodness this is TBC!10.
“Ahem, attention please,” declares @RacingRodent , clearing his throat and flicking his tail in the way that squirrels often do when they have something important to say, which isn’t often, “I’ve completed, in consultation with Barbaria1, the writing of the contract absolving her of all guilt in the matter of the Great CruxForums Site Crash of the Summer of 2013.”
“Well, let’s hear it,” demands @Wragg , impatiently. “I don’t like the looks of all those trigger-happy Barbaria clones wielding supersonic demerit launchers!”
“Yes, please read!” cries, @montycrusto
“Do so indeed,” rhymes @twonines .
“Does it contain any random pictures or summer boating pics?” wonders @Gibbs505 .
“Or, obscene displays?” adds @Apostate hopefully.
“No, just words,” replied RR crossly. “It’s intended to be a legal document, not a CF pic posting thread.”
“Quite right. Get on with reading it!” orders @old slave anxiously, as another clone accidentally releases a supersonic demerit, which luckily streaks harmlessly overhead, although the strange howling sound it makes is totally unnerving, not to mention what it did to the bell tower of the town hall.
“Alright, listen up everyone,” says, RR, adjusting his eyeglasses and beginning to read. “We, the undersigned, do solemnly agree to the terms set forth by Barbaria1, henceforth to be referred to on the CruxForums site as ‘Her most exalted, most powerful and omniscient, Queen Barbaria1’, the principal agreement being that her innocence with regard to causing the Great CruxForums crash of the Summer of 2013 shall never ever ever ever be questioned again as long as the site may live. Moreover, the Queen shall be supplied, at no cost to her, with an unlimited supply of high quality Riesling, which shall become the official CruxForums drink, replacing all beers, ales and Seagrams. Further. Twonines and Montycrusto shall be forever forbidden to rhyme or to make fun of the gloriously wonderful works of Gilbert and Sullivan. In addition, CruxForums will undertake the project of building a mail-order-bride-proof wall around the red state of Arkansas and make Arkansas pay for it, the payment part to be faithfully overseen by the legal genius, @thehangingtree . Additionally, @Harsh Martinet shall be forbidden to post anything on the site pertaining to riding horses, as cruelty to animals as well as the shielding of Cruxgirls’s sensitivities ‘down there’ are now officially banned. And finally, it is solemnly agreed that hideous women’s footwear of all kinds shall be forever banned from adorning the female subjects of all artwork posted on the site.”
“Is that the lot of it?” questions @Loxuru .
“Except for the small print,” responds RR.
“No need to bother reading that now,” adds @Heineudo all to quickly.
“Agreed,” declares @Jollyrei . “That’s for the legal department to go over after we sign.”
“Okay, line up everyone, let’s sign the thing and get this over with,” advises @bobinder .
“About time! And bring me some clothes!” snorts Barbaria, displaying a condescending look on her face.
“I fear this Queen business is going to her head already and will make her insufferable from now on,” observes @phlebas drily.
“Isn’t she that already?” quips @Loinclothslave .
“I heard that!” she snarls.
TBC
I think “Total Bull Crap” is a bit harsh. Let’s just call it “Almost Total Bull Crap”, or ATBCThank goodness this is TBC!
Barbaria1, henceforth to be referred to on the CruxForums site as ‘Her most exalted, most powerful and omniscient, Queen Barbaria1’,
supersonic demerit launchers!”
These gents from rhyming are banned?Twonines and Montycrusto shall be forever forbidden to rhyme or to make fun of the gloriously wonderful works of Gilbert and Sullivan.
Additionally, @Harsh Martinet shall be forbidden to post anything on the site pertaining to riding horses, as cruelty to animals as well as the shielding of Cruxgirls’s sensitivities ‘down there’ are now officially banned.
Or 'Queen Bee' for short!Her most exalted, most powerful and omniscient, Queen Barbaria1
This really annoys me she is pulling this off...“Alright, listen up everyone,” says, RR, adjusting his eyeglasses and beginning to read. “We, the undersigned, do solemnly agree to the terms set forth by Barbaria1, henceforth to be referred to on the CruxForums site as ‘Her most exalted, most powerful and omniscient, Queen Barbaria1’, the principal agreement being that her innocence with regard to causing the Great CruxForums crash of the Summer of 2013 shall never ever ever ever be questioned again as long as the site may live.

Yes, these are the real traditional regalia of the Queen of CF! Only the Royal Hideous Shoes are still missing!Yes, I prefer her in this situation and clothes more too!

But the threatening flying demerits....
MORTAL KOMBAT!!!That's a brilliant idea. All we have to do is tell the clones that they are entitled to this crown and that only the best of them can survive. There can only be one.
All we need do is open enough cases of Chardonnay to ensure there’s at least 3 glasses per Barb and we’re set!Don't panic, guys! Haven't we designed the Crux Forums Doomsday Machine for such situations? Let's release clouds of fine print over that army of Barb clones, followed by sprays of beer! They will soon beg us to get whipped and crucified!
