 		Looks semi-interesting. I lurked through a fair bit of of LG15 and was interested in OpAphid until they announced as "the official LG15 ARG!" at which point my mind was numbed completely.

Anyway, count me in - looks potentially interesting Very Happy

Thank you, but the credit goes to you for turning us on to this. Worshippy I think it's going to rock. I pray it does, anyways.

 		Can anyone tell me what to make of this? I sent in the interpretation of the Dresden Dolls or whatever song and I got this as a reply...

The meaning of the song...
A girl is obsessed with a fake, "plastic," notion of love, to the point where she wants something, or someone, fake, because she cannot appreciate real love or real boys. Hence, she wants a "coin operated boy," someone completely fake and disposable at her will that fulfills all of her preconceived notions about love without ever having to experience the pain of love and loss.


Any ideas? The only things I can recognize are a few elements as per the periodic table, but I doubt this has too much significance.

It's base64 Decodes to

49 20 62 65 61 72 65 64 20 66 61 6c 73 65 20 77 69 74 6e 65 73 73 20 61 67 61 69 6e 73 74 20 74 68 79 20 6b 69 6e 67 2e


Which then leads to

My guess is that the root of the second word is not "beard" but "bear". Perhaps bearded is the PM/IGC's best guess of bear's past tense, which of course means that this comes from the Ten Commandments. Except for the king part. neighbor ==> king
