Hippos

I just have to say I love all of you for keeping the Hippo dream alive.

Hippo's are amazing brilliant creatures.... And um, they are so cute!

Whats up to all my people i've missed we must restart the Hippo Lovers group.... somehow it disbanded while i was gone.

JV

Yaaayyyyy Jon!! Welcome back to the Number One Hippo lover! You have been sorely missed.

Such fun to see you again in your Anti-grav hippo suit!

Hijackers! Gw-way! This is now a one-sentence story thread!

So...I want to hear about the revenge part.

"The number of the hippolets was not four, nor was the number two, accepting that the number of hippolets was three; five is right out."

We're a flexible enough folk... I think we can accommodate both random hippo comments - the original premise of this thread - and our current raison d'etre, the one-sentence time-spanning organic hippo-themed tale. Truth be told, we are the de facto hijackers. Fnord.

Of course, we would kindly request that posters contribute to our tale if they so desire...

So to continue...

"Stomp was the eldest of the three, and the designated male successor - a fact that he lorded over his sisters Maw and Wallow to no end - for to him, it seemed only natural that his plan for revenge would be the one that the family would employ, of course."

=Sinclair
=thread hijacker prosaic

Maw and Wallow were, however, getting quite tired of Stomp's constant self-reveling, and they were also slowly coming to believe that he may have had a hand in their father's demise.

So one day they tied up Stomp to a tree and burnt him with lit cigarettes until he answered their questions about their father's murder.

YOU DARE CALL ME A HIJACKER!?!? I have been posting in this thread since it started. I am known as the hippo to many SL residents.

You dare degrade the hippo loving thread into mindless 1 sentence posts, basically lowering it to the level of the evil 3 word thread!!!

The insult of your comments goes too far, I shall unleash my horde of evil hippos upon you. They shall chomp your shoulders off and release their mighty butt fish upon you.

Cower now in fear from the Hippo Master

JV!@@$@#$@@#@

How can thou call thyself the hippo master when yon thread is older than you. *floats into the air* ONLY ONE OF US CAN CONTROL THE HORDE OF UNDEAD HIPPOS!!!! *unleashed horde of undead hippos unto SL* NONE CAN DEFY MY WILL!!! MWAHAHAHA!!!! *falls to the ground*

0_0 What happened? I... I blacked out... And why is this city in ruins? Ah well...

*to the story*

When the cigarettes hit Stomps skin, however, he set flame, and after the smoke cleared, all that was left was a hippo wireframe, and Christopher!!!!

not much older than me I didn't think you'd notice .

I am very saddened that you have been taken to the dark side too. You were once a strong proponent of Hippophilia but now you can not be trusted with the movement.

Also when a person much younger than I calls me a hijacker of a thread that I have been posting on for almost 40 pages then i must respond.

I AM THE MASTER OF THE HIPPO'S, YOU FOOLS LET THE HIPPO LOVERS GROUP DISBAND IN MY ABSENCE, YOU CAN NOT BE TRUSTED TO RULE THE EVIL HORDE OF HIPPO'S, ONLY I THE HIPPOMASTER IN UNION WITH THE GATEKEEPER AND THE KEYHOLDER CAN ACCESS THE SECRET POWERS OF THE DEMENTED HIPPO'S.

JV

Bah.. I made an entire post before adding my sentance besides, it'll go by faster if you just hurry the story along.

And, of course I noticed, I HAVE been here since it started

So anyways, hows it going Dio, i haven't seen you in a while.

You working on anything cool?

JV

I started a little Mario area, but I haven't been able to get IW for a few weeks... I've got finals this week :^p

Oh, and Hippos hippos hippos.

*fails attempt at creating his own cool ascii hippo*

Ummm you guys do realize I was joking when I was yelling at him right?

Sheesh this thread got quiet after my all-in-fun tirade.


JV

JV:

I actually enjoyed your tirade - just like old times - but haven't figured out where to go in the story yet. Too much RL work, insufficient brain cells.

... I know! Hippo filler!

* What goes best on a hippo sandwich?
* Hippopotomustard.

=Sinclair

Grey Poopon

EEWWWWW!!!!

JV

That gives a whole new meaning to the term "hippo filler", Pit...



=SV

Wow, seems like I forgot about this thread for awhile. Let's see...

Hijacking: See, after WE hijacked the thread, the only way to take it back is to hijack it again. So, in fact, you are a hijacker! Hijacker! Hijacker! Hijacker! Hijacker! Hijacker!

Anyway--



And Christopher said to the pissed off Hippos, "Now, now...let's not bicker, and squabble, about who killed who!"

(Hope the Monty Python fans are around muahahah)

"Maw and Wallow, momentarily stunned by their brother's transformation, prepared to launch themselves at Christopher in a fury of wet hippo flesh and nasty big pointy teeth."

=SV

Suddenly, they realized that their teeth are flat, and decided that the rocket launchers they had strapped to their waists would be much more effective.

Story writing is fun. And I dunno if I'll ever get my flash done, I e-mailed it to myself, and it says it's in the wrong format. :^x

... but I needed to sneak in my Python reference somehow... and quit flashing yourself...


"Raising their weapons, the hippo duo simultaneously fired, the nearby trees trembling as rockets sped toward their intended target...

=SV

Four things running through my mind:

1. I don't get the feeling people automatically associate my name with monkey anymore. I know I don't.

2. I've been passed up in the number of posts here! Down a place!

3. Should I downgrade my account or cancel it? I don't really feel a pert of SL anymore. It's kinda sad I mean, I barely go on anymore and when I do, it's not the kind of thing where everyone knows your name like it was six months ago.

4. The word "Hippo"

"Just then, inexplicably, a small crazed monkey LUNGED in front of the hippos' rockets, sacrificing himself to gain Christopher the precious seconds needed to make his escape..."



=SV

The monkey's hair was all burned off from the explosion of the missiles, making him a pretty dern ugly hairless-monkey...but amazingly, other than that he was okay!

dang, i happen to be starving as i post this. That just sounds sooo good right now
