After last night's action, I gave her two. Well earned, I must say. _____________________

That IS actually something I keep wondering, how to pronounce some of the sim names.Felonhall ISN'T a problem here...I can also cope with stuff like all the Japanese or Maori or Italian names where I KNOW which language it is. But Liome? _____________________

How DOES one pronounce Liome? in my mind its lee-ohm I keep thinking of it as LIE-oh-me. And I've been saying lee-OH-mee. I've actually wondered about this for a while. From googling it, the only pronunciation I can come up with is "lithium methoxide"!  |

Yeah, the chemical formula was one of my first ideas, too.... What are the other sims around Liome called? They often have a common subject. Blackmount, where I live (no pronunciation difficulties there) is in an area with New Zealand names- Monowai, Aotearoa and so on. My alt lives in Valeyard, which is in an area of...Doctor Who villains. Next door is Fenric, and there's also Slitheen and such stuff._____________________

"Liome" she said lazily, peeling a grape and slipping it slowly between his lips. "Do you think we should go neko, dear? Since we moved here, I've been thinking there's sort of a lovely miao sound to the word 'Liome' .... " "Mmmmm... neko" he said contentedly, pulling her back against him on the hammock. "Liome." *brought to you by, the 'pimp your sim' coalition* *snorts, laughs* Brilliant. _____________________

Blackmount, where I live (no pronunciation difficulties there) is in an area with New Zealand names- Monowai, Aotearoa and so on. My alt lives in Valeyard, which is in an area of...Doctor Who villains. Next door is Fenric, and there's also Slitheen and such stuff. I've noticed that in other places too, but I can't find a theme around Liome. We've got: Recouster - a word from a 50 Cent song, can't find it elsewhere Dundrum - a town in/by Dublin Firewake - from the game Magic the Gathering Glentissen - sounds vaguely Scottish, but is not found in google Blarn Isle - sounds like "blarney", but is not found in google except for SL Clonmel - large Irish town (BTW, Clonmel looks awesome on the map!) Earlen Pire - sound irish/scottish, but not in google except for SL stuff West Bernham - same Kileinan - same I don't know... as far as I can tell, the closest theme is "names that sound like Irish or Scottish place names, but are in fact made up." Of course, that's not going to help us with the pronunciation of Liome. As the name appears entirely fictional, I guess Ray as owner gets to decide the pronunciation. Ray? |

OFFICIAL: ...you are to be stoned to death. CROWD: Ahh! MATTHIAS: Look. I-- I'd had a lovely supper, and all I said to my wife was, 'That piece of halibut was good enough for Liome.' CROWD: Oooooh!

I thought we'd started. OFFICIAL: Go to the back. CULPRIT WOMAN: Oh, dear. OFFICIAL: Always one, isn't there? Now, where were we? MATTHIAS: Look. I don't think it ought to be blasphemy, just saying 'Liome'. CROWD: Oooh! He said it again! Oooh!... OFFICIAL: You're only making it worse for yourself! MATTHIAS: Making it worse?! How could it be worse?! Liome! Liome! Liome! CROWD: Oooooh!... OFFICIAL: I'm warning you. If you say 'Liome' once more-- [MRS. A. stones OFFICIAL] Right. Who threw that? [silence] Come on.

There's, uh, probably a lot of things you didn't know about lindens. Another, another interesting, uh, lindenism, uh, there are only three jobs available to a linden. The first is making shoes at night while, you know, while the old cobbler sleeps.You can bake cookies in a tree. But the third job, some call it, uh, "the show" or "the big dance," it's the profession that every linden aspires to.

Oh Hell Why Not? *I'm sorry*
BRENDA: I do feel, Ray, that any Anti-Imperialist group like ours must reflect such a divergence of interests within its power-base. RAY: Agreed. Chris? Chris: Yeah. I think Brenda's point of view is very valid, Ray, provided the Movement never forgets that it is the inalienable right of every man-- BRADLEY: Or woman. Chris: Or woman... to rid himself-- BRADLEY: Or herself. Chris: Or herself. RAY: Agreed. Chris: Thank you, brother. BRADLEY: Or sister. CHRIS: Or sister. Where was I? RAY: I think you'd finished. CHRIS: Oh. Right. RAY: Furthermore, it is the birthright of every man-- BRADLEY: Or woman. RAY: Why don't you shut up about women, Bradley. You're putting us off. BRADLEY: Women have a perfect right to play a part in our movement, Ray. CHRIS: Why are you always on about women,Bradley? BRADLEY: I want to be one. RAY: What? BRADLEY: I want to be a woman. From now on, I want you all to call me 'Oryx'. RAY: What?! ORYX: It's my right as a man. BRENDA: Well, why do you want to be Oryx, Bradley? ORYX: I want to have babies. RAY: You want to have babies?! ORYX: It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them. RAY: But... you can't have babies. Oryx: Don't you oppress me. RAY: I'm not oppressing you, Bradley. You haven't got a womb! Where's the foetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?! ORYX: [crying] BRENDA: Here! I-- I've got an idea. Suppose you agree that he can't actually have babies, not having a womb, which is nobody's fault, not even the Lindens', but that he can have the right to have babies. Chris: Good idea,Brenda. We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother. Sister. Sorry. RAY: What's the point? CHRIS: What? RAY: What's the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can't have babies?! CHRIS: It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression. RAY: Symbolic of his struggle against reality. WILLY: Larks' tongues. Otters' noses. Ocelot spleens. RAY: Got any nuts? WILLY: I haven't got any nuts. Sorry. I've got wrens' livers, badgers' spleens-- RAY: No, no, no. WILLY: Otters' noses? RAY: I don't want any of that Linden rubbish. BRENDA: Why don't you sell proper food? BRIAN: Proper food? RAY: Yeah, not those rich hippie tit-bits. WILLY: Well, don't blame me. I didn't ask to sell this stuff. RAY: All right. Bag of otters' noses, then. CHRIS: Make it two. RAY: Two. CHRIS: Thanks, Ray. WILLY: Are you the Liomean People's Front? RAY: Fuck off! WILLY: What? RAY: Liomean People's Front. We're the People's Front of Liome! Liomean People's Front. Cawk. Chris: Wankers. WILLY: Can I... join your clique? RAY: No. Piss off. WILLY: I didn't want to sell this stuff. It's only a job. I hate the Lindens as much as anybody. PEOPLE'S FRONT OF LIOME: Shhhh. Shhhh. Shhh. Shh. Shhhh. RAY: Schtum. BRENDA: Are you sure? WILLY: Oh, dead sure. I hate the Lindens already. RAY: Listen. If you really wanted to join the P.F.L., you'd have to really hate the Lindens. WILLY: I do! RAY: Oh, yeah? How much? WILLY: A lot! RAY: Right. You're in. Listen. The only people we hate more than the Lindens are the fucking Liomean People's Front. P.F.L.: Yeah... BRENDA: Splitters. P.F.L.: Splitters... CHRIS: And the Liomean Popular People's Front. P.F.L.: Yeah. Oh, yeah. Splitters. Splitters... ORYX: And the People's Front of Liome. P.F.L.: Yeah. Splitters. Splitters... RAY: What? ORYX: The People's Front of Liome. Splitters. RAY: We're the People's Front of Liome! ORYX: Oh. I thought we were the Popular Front. RAY: People's Front! C-huh. CHRIS: Whatever happened to the Popular Front, Ray? RAY: He's over there. P.F.L.: Splitter! RAY: Yes, brother! Ha ha. What's your name? WILLY: Willy. Willy Neumann. RAY: We may have a little job for you, Willy. _____________________

WOW, I made one or 2 comments to the guy, and his numerous posts about the place he keeps advertising and I am attacking him, and baiting him???? oh well, think what you want, I can not and do not plan to even try, to change what anyone thinks I was curious as to if I am the only one tired of it, and how many probably are not speaking up I see plenty of threads closed due to being inappropiate, yet his many posts remain... anywho have not read the rest of the posts, honestly did not expect this kind of response Plus he thinks you're a guy..... _____________________
