The Return of the Pumpkins

Postby Peanut » Sat Sep 13, 2014 10:33 pm

I remember last year when they emerged. Those of us sensitive to them could feel their arriving far before they appeared. It felt as if something was watching us in the dark behind a toothless grin, waiting for us to turn our backs before it pounced. When they came it was as we feared. Within the first day they had already consumed the whole board. Putting under the control of their round girth and rubbery skin. All who resisted were eventually consumed by the Great Devourer. However we held hope that they would leave. That as the months moved on they would disappear satisfied that they had had their fill. But we were wrong. OH how we were wrong! As the months went on the Great Devourer refused to leave! Consuming more and more threads into its orangey, roundness. Becoming greater and greater with each passing moment. Christmas passed and no progress was made and as the year turned from one to the next we no longer wondered when but if they would be gone. But then, they came. Riding on the backs of code like divine angels they swooped down and smote the Great Devourer and removed it from CAA in the blink of an eye. Peace returned and all was forgotten. Until today. For today, as we sit behind our computer screens, scrolling through our anime boards we find that that wily nemesis that is the Great Devourer has returned! The Pumpkins! They have come back! CAN YOU HEAR THEM CALLING! CALLING TO ALL OF THE THREADS TO BE CONSUMED! QUICK BROTHERS! TAKE UP YOUR ARMS WHILE YOU CAN BEFORE THE PUMPKINS CONSUME US ALL!!!!!!

I will now have pumpkin-related nightmares. Not that that's anything new.

If Mith was here, I know what he would say.

"Fly, you fools!"
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? -Micah 6:8 KJV
They have shewed thee, O teen, what is good; and what doth the world require of thee, but to fit in, be wealthy, have good looks, and be rebellious? -Peer Pressure 1:1
"I hate milk; it's like drinking vomit." -Edward Elric and me. :fmed:

Lol what I'm looking forward to is when he puts the santa hat back on...:3

And actually, I've nothing against the Great Devourer, he's actually a pretty great guy, though a poor conversationalist. His, um, orange cronies give me the chills, though...*shudder*

Tis the season...watch out. There's no hiding from them.
"Show me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day." Psalm 25:4-5

"Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.
Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles." Psalm 25: 16-22

And on that day, we received a grim reminder...

I also think they're cute. I mean, look at them! :3
