I think we found our answer. It was D&D. That explains it all. I'm surprised I wasn't aware of it then.

I love Cthulu. I like how it sounds. I am a huge Lovecraft fan. I got there partly via the late 80s/early 90s schlock horror films made by the Blue Moon studios (stuff like Reanimator and From Beyond most of which were set in the fictional town of Arkham and often within the hallowed halls of Miskatonic University) and partly from a very old copy of short stories that was in my family's bookcase when i was little. As an insomniac kid I used to be up and about at 2 or 3 am, when the rest of the house was sleeping, stalking the bookshelves and reading Lovecraft or Poe.

I still have a penchant for occasional readings of scary/odd shit during the early hours. It's when ghost stories really should be read. When the rest of the world is sleeping.

How do you pronounce it? (No, not 'it', Cthuluhuhth or whatever it is?)

glatt · 11-12-2009, 10:00 AM

We need UT's embedded audio file player for this one.

In re: stupid people:

1) just got this question on one of my bodymod forums:

Quote:

Hey, not sure if someone asked before but I'm not sure which size is the biggest 1/4", 1/2", 5/16", 3/8" 7/16"??

I mean, come on--did she not graduate from fourth grade? I know fractions can be confusing, but surely she knows how to use a ruler? (ETA: she's a 24-yo college student)

2) At the grocery store, the person ahead of me was being all know-it-all and tried to tell the checker (a 30-something woman) a bit of food history, saying that the Chinese invented catsup. After he left, I said, they may have had a word for a sauce that sounded like our word, "catsup," but it sure wasn't any tomato sauce, since tomatoes are a New World food. Her response? What's the New World? I'm like, the Americas, you know -- Columbus sailed the ocean blue? Blank stare.
