So I couldn't do a poll on the last. Making another post has made me feel a little dirty but it's much simpler than attempting to vote without a poll.

I cut a fewout that may be too hard or not novilty nough, but I think it will be fun for the Escapist to do. Sorry, if yours wan't picked.

Jack Bauer! "You're going to have to trust me on this..."

*Proceeds to violate nearly all civil liberties of everyone involved, all in the name of protecting the country.*

Hmm. 24's a thoroughly conservative show, isn't it? I wonder why Fox like it so...

I'd've done G-Man if we were gathering in real life, but alas, through text, I'm going to go with Hard-Boiled Detective / Noir.

Purple drops showered from the sky like water from a drippy showerhead, and I looked to the sky. Sure, it was a lonely street, being the only guy enjoying the Rain from the outside. The street lamp flickered like a fading neon sign. It was quiet in the street, devoid of gents and dames alike. Company was sorely missed, and I wished for another soul to join me in my natural shower. Christ...

I wouldn't know how cho chalk like Mishter Conery.

Leaning back on his chair he tapped his pensil on his desk looking at the cracked hole in the roof. 'Jast anouther day on the Escapist,' he sighed to himself.

Be it the Hardboiled or evoke the mighty wrath of Thor!

Second. I would talk like the main character from Brick all day or all week if I could. That's some snappy dialogue.

"Me and Dave had a bad deal go through, I'm lookin' to see him down. Who's he eating with?"

Works for me.

But I prefer Jack BAUER! Why is it so hard to spell his name correctly?

Because people have too many missions to do to get peoples name spelt right.

Maybe it was the fact that after you'd invoked Odin, Thor and Loki's wrath it didn't seem as interesting anymore, maybe it was the Danish language debate, or maybe it was simply the fact that they spent a lot of time in ships, but I began to think there was something distinctively fishy about those Vikings. I couldn't be sure though, I made a mental note to keep a track of it, but I had a feeling I would be too late... and in this City Site 'too late' wasn't just a fancy phrase...

Taking comfort from the fact that I had kept a low profile and no one could have guessed my vote I sat in a dark corner of the bar thread like a hunter in a duck blind waiting for a duck, only the the blind was a carefully propped up menu and the duck was no duck, but a dangerous criminal... a tiger like man who had ravaged this jungle of a city site for too long and was looking for a one-way ticket to the zoo, and by zoo I meant gaol...

I've given myself an idea for an even better day: Talk like an RPG NPC day. Just don't tell anyone you know you're doing it.

Friend: Hey, what're you standing around for?"
You: I hear goblins are weak against ice.
Friend: O...k...
You: Maybe you should pick up a spell at the magic shop.
Friend: What the hell are you doing?
You: I hear goblins are weak against ice.
Friend: Are you feeling alright?
You: Maybe you should pick up a spell at the magic shop.
Friend: You're annoying, you know that?

If "talk like a hardboiled detective day" doesn't win, its because not enough people have heard what a hardboiled detectie talks like. Because if they had, they'd vote for it.

My fingers were clacking away like stilettos on fresh pavement when I saw it. Some poll thought it could sneak by me, but I was too quick for it. I was on it like rust on a Chevy, giving it a piece of my mind. Gotta make a mark somehow.

I still think "Talk Like G-Man" would be hard. "Talk Like A Protoss" would be cool, if unintelligible. "Talk Like a Jedi/Sith" I would endorse publicly ^^

Give in to your anger, vote for Jack Bauer day! It is the key to ULIMITED POWER!

Yeah, on second thought, Talk like a Sith day would be fun, if not a little annoying...

I'll give this a few more days. Talk like a Noir character and Viking are catching up to Connery. Then we should set a date... say next Sunday? 7/9/08, talk like an x day.

Hmmm if Connery wins can we say its most popular but actually do the most feasible and most popular? Don't get me wrong, I think the idea of Sean Connery day in real life is awesome, but it just doesn't translate the same way in text as many of the others would.
