Cellar Worship
 

To what Cellar Dwellar would you erect a shrine in your home? I'm talking candles, tapes of sound bytes, portraits done in black velvet...the whole works.

I only had 15 options, so write-ins are welcome. I would have liked to include more names, so if I've missed you I'm sorry. I was going for variety.

ME!

oh wait, I already do.

well Bruce and Sundae Girl were close seconds. I chose Ibram because his thinking is so close to my best friend who I love the most in the whole world.

....so I am all worshiped out but Ibram's a gooder that's for sure.

!!!

Wow, thanks, sky. I honestly wasn't expecting a single vote beyond mine; I didnt realize I was so popular!

Ah, I see the stats are skewed towards griff!

anything you two would care to explain? :D

I'd have to have a trifecta (possibly four-fecta) shrine...any option for that?

I voted for Elspode. He needs to get on here more.

lol...didn't mean to post Griff twice. Ooops. I bet I can't fix it either. I think I meant to put spexx or someone in there.

But, as Griff is going to be our next president of the USA I didn't think brownie points could hurt. ;)

(There are tons others I would have included. Did I miss the Aussie faction? Didn't mean to!)

These polls are always targeted toward popularity which annoys me actually.There are only six of your original list I would have included. It would have been better to give people a 'write in'option button since worship is such a highly personal thing.

There are alot of people who didn't make the list who I like even better than alot of people on the list.

griff ( well except for griff ) I would have liked to have seen these names.
crimson ghost
duck nuts
beastie
WHIP
cyclefrance
lab rat
freshnesschronic
bluecuacao
jinx
hoofhearted
stevedallas
glatt
dana c
pie

Well, sky...it was kind of a tongue-in-cheek thread that I thought we could have some fun with, rather than the "popularity contest" you abhor. Do you really think I would erect a shrine to anyone here? Well, maybe Griff, but only because I want to be on his presidential cabinet.

No wonder my user title was "perpetual sigh" for a while.

Where has all the fun gone?

It's all good! no worrys.

..................I just talk too much. I even annoy myself!:p

In fact it isn't about you. I just wanted those people to feel special too. ok? :)

I see you missed yourself off, you modest lil madam you.

The Cellar is a whole pantheon of deities to me - I invoke them in different situations when I need their particular strengths. For example on a day I worry will be hard on my fragile ego I light a candle to the Jim and ask for his wooden overcoat of self confidence. And on days off when I feel I can't be bothered to make myself presentable before leaving the flat I chant, "Wolf has seen far worse, Wolf has seen far worse"

Sometimes I have to listen hard to work out who the still quiet voice I hear is. Is it Elspode or Bruce sharing wisdom, Brianna telling me another drink won't kill me or TW calling me a brownshirt...?

Hey, it gets me through.

BTW - good to see you back Sky :)

The terminally PC amongst us (and there are more than a few) are shitting all over the place, aren't they? They of the Permanent Last Word on any Subject. Where'd all these Experts on Everything and Moral Compassi come From?

Lots of Red Queens:
"I say THIS! I say THAT!" and the thread is dead, dead, dead.

Coolness, sky...I just didn't want to offend anyone.

I like so many of you...I just got a chuckle out of the thought if building a shrine in my home that I started this thread! Any chance to get black velvet paintings in.

Even the people I don't always agree with I like, each of the dwellars for different reasons. We are all different humans roaming around this great big earth!

And Bri? You are the most refreshingly honest and don't care what anyone thinks Dwellar there is. That is a huge compliment!

But I am NOT going to break out into a round of Kumbaya! Don't worry, snarky Shawnee is never gone for good. :D

BTW, not directed at you, sky. In response to the 'where's the fun?" question only.

Thank you. Of course I missed you and Bruce and even Brianna. :p I love her too even though I annoy the crap out of her. Some people like you are just too loveable to leave for very long.

So if we were in the same town I would so love to hang out. The candle I light tonight will be for you SundaeGirl. :)

Since my machine is essentially a Cellar shrine and UT started this whole mess, I'll go wit da Toad. There are many beautiful people here beyond his exalted amphibianess who deserve much love.

Hey, sky. You don't annoy me. The people who annoy me are Fucking Bitches. You aren't a Fucking Bitch (sorry xob, for the profanity) you are an artist. Big, biiiiiiig difference!

No problem... I love your sarcasm.

sorry about that last post. I didn't mean to talk about you as if you wern't here.



an artist? lol. * wink wink* OK Perfect example of why I admire you.

I need to learn how to write like you....short concise and full of mystery. lol

PS-sky, you're prolly a priestess, too. Some sort of Artist/Priestess/Faerie-Creature, no? How can someone be annoyed by that? :)

:o

Yeah priestess.....the kind to get the heel of her shoe caught in her robe,
light the alter on fire after dropping the candle,then laugh about it and not be very dignified.

...that kind. :right:

Excellent post.

Best kind, I'd say.

*sweeping bow to you my lady*

We should get SG to write a Cellar story entitled:

The Accidental Princess(es)

:)

Still nobody loves me...boo hoo.

I'm changing my name to Brianna, just to confuse everyone.

WRITE IN VOTE:

BrianR is the grooviest!

Sorry, Bri (see...BriAN, BriANNA) I just couldn't fit everyone in. I forgot many many cool dwellars.

Don't really think that's gonna help you any, Brian. No one really loves me, either. They just wanna hump my luscious lady lumps!

(what is WRONG with me today?) :3_eyes:

Nothing. You're as lovely and pleasant as ever.

Of course I am ;)

but I AM quoting Fergie---which is disturbing.

I love you, too, Sexxpet. In that special, dirty way. :)

I'm boycotting this thread in protest.

Besides, my altar is already crowded with sacrificial victims.

I Love You All, and I am unworthy of your worship.
But first I want to thank all of the little people, oh I'm sorry I wasn't even nominated.:cry:
and he exits stage left.

What, you feel disenfranchised? ha, I can't even vote yet. <jk>

Well, at least I know someone worships me. I have it on very good authority that the dust bunnies under my bed consider me a higher life form.

And that includes the newly reincarnated Mr. Falwell.;)

Oh Brianna, you're my alter ego anyway. THAT'S why!

personal note, there is a huge story behind this...and I know more about "lady lumps" than you'd expect.

Brian--correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you work in the "Happiest Industry of All" for awhile? Coz if you did, that's what we probably have in common ;)

Elspode is currently involved in pre-Pagan festival adventures, leading immediately thereafter to intra-Pagan festival adventures, followed thereafter by post-Pagan festival adventures...then back to my blood sucking, corporate drone paper pushing shithole of a job.

Did I type that out loud?

Truly, I should be in bed. Just home for the evening, then back out to camp tomorrow. Won't be back until the Wednesday after Memorial Day.

I miss you 'spode

I voted for zippy because flint doesn't like it when I stalk him.

I miss *everyone* here, damn it. But I miss you especially because, well...you're hot, and apparently have semi-flexible morals, two qualities that I admire in a person.

I used to feel really bad when people got their work access to The Cellar taken away, but I never had any idea just how shitty it was until it happened to me. Trust me, it fucking sucks.

skysidhe,


Thank you for your ringing endorsement.
However, I don't know if I'm worthy of a statue.
A black velvet painting maybe...

I just *knew* you got me 'spode!!

We are truely feeling your pain luv.

Oh and I havent voted in here and I wont...coz...well...we all know how I feel about being let out n shit...and just saying that you *wanted* to put others up there doesnt make it orrite....coz obviously you meant to leave me out on purpose to crush my really fragile ego and make a point, and its just not fair.( i think I may have stomped my foot about here!)

NOW, I think about it...I'm gonna vote for Sky, coz she obviously appreciates me and well, 'spode, coz he always says I'm hot and Bruce coz when I say *Bite me*, he actually wants too. And Bri, coz I wanna grow up like her. Also Ali, coz shes an Aussie, but not Hagar coz he wouldnt tell his wife about us so couldnt come out with us, and Ibby coz hes cool (even if he did say Prince was gorgeous??), LJ for giving me cool titles (and uncool ones), Zippy for being so Ziplike and making me concentrate really hard to figure out wtf he is saying, UT ...well..he is godly, SG for saying all the right things at the right time, Griff coz I have a little crush on him and he says cool things, Flint coz I like the way his mind workds, but that troubles me.........i could go on.......

Oh and I meant to put other dwellars up there, I really did.....:p

Wow, the people I missed. Flint is the most glaring omission.

Don't hate me because I'm pitiful.

I worship you all! :)

Yup, for a little while, mostly in the production end although I did "fill in" for performers now and then. I was only slightly disturbed to see a video that featured me for sale in the local porn shop in Florida. But then the horndog in me won out and I left it there. And I autographed it too! ;)

Nowadays I'm too old and fat to do that while you have kept your girlish figure.

Well...I am a female and I do present with a sort of ectoplasmic outersphere, so...yeah....a 'figure' of sorts...

UT.

You worked in p0rn? :joylove: :corn: http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/li...smiley-086.gif

I would have preferred that this poll allow multiple answers. I would erect several shrines.

I agree. I was a poll virgin. :)

This thread makes me feel a little bit sad - no, not for the people who didn't make the list, that's not so bad - but for those who did but still have a lonely little zero sitting by their name.

They are up on the stage in the public eye, unwanted, and with nowhere left to hide.

Like at the prom - they assume a lonely stance, stand by the wall while the popular people do the popular dance.

And the people on the floor all say, "look at him, against the wall, look at her, in the corner there." And those unwanted few are trying hard to show their nonchalance; but all the while the hot hand of humility lays on their necks and lays their feelings bare.

Eyes sting, ears ring, dry lips twitching, nostrils flair, fingers run through sweat-soaked hair, and in the center the popular people tell themselves it's not polite to stare.

if i hadnt used all my sock puppets up on brianna, i'd vote for happy monkey, too.

Ah, so it was you, LJ, falsely stuffing the ballot box. Thanks!

And, Sexxpet---does UT know you've infiltrated the smilies with a naughty sex pervert smilie? Where's the girl one? You bad boy.

I wasn't a p0rn actress, but I DID make a few movies...if you get my drift.

Wait...you two worked at DisneyWorld?

it IS a small world after all ;)

Everyone wants to feel important. So, I rescind my earlier boycott vote for everyone!

It's too bad the poll results don't show voters. I'd be real curious as to who actually voted for Lumberjim. I'm sure it wasn't Jinx.

Hey, I didn't know you were from my class at school! Great to see you!


I knew those photos looked like Ally Sheedy!!

so, I get to learn who all the cool people are!

. . . so I'll know why they won't hang out with me. Bah! :(

There's this web site called YouTube...

It's ok HLJ. I don't care if no one voted for me. I tell ya, if I drew my self esteem from things like this, I'd never have any. ;) I'll bet the other 0's would feel the same.

damn, how about griff....nominated twice....and 0 votes on either? i cry shenanigans. Griff is a temple unto himself. A griffitude unmatched in these times, for sure. Grifftacular griffocity abounds in this place. you can feel it in your griffious receptors.
