Propheet's illfamous jokes, part 1

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/alien.gif" alt="" />----->NPC's in questions and answers:

Kistandalius:

Q:Ever wondered why he is wearing jesters hat?
A:And have you seen his prices?

El'Gammon:

Q:What is the last fake item to be bought from him?
A:It is his tongue. (trader's tongue)
Q:So why he still can talk?
A:As I said, it's just as fake, as the previous ones.

Corinna the Summoner:

Q:Why was Corinna unable to control the demon she summoned?
A:She didn't follow the Ragons advice to eat all of her straw hat. Oh, yeah, and she forgot to put a tomato at the tip of her head; as you can see in her avatar, she has put there a bunch of grapes instead.

Q:Ok, so I made it to get this branch, wine and the book. Is there anything else I can do, to summon a demon?
A:Yes; try the Archmages Ragons advice. Go to nearest grocery to buy tomatoes. Straw hat can be found in Departament Store. If you are to lazy to actually go there, try hex editing your position...:P

Merchant Blake:

Q:I read in a "Spoiler Quest Guide" that he is to be found in merchants area, but I still can't find him, so I can't solve the Nericon Garden quest...
A:It is the only guy that can't be pickpocketed. If you still have problems, even after you edited your save to get the maximum level of pickpocketing, try learning reading. To do this go to nearest nursery school. Again, if you are to lazy to move, try hex editing your position...

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/question.gif" alt="" />----> F.U.C.Q.(frequently unasked curiosal questions):

Q:I get the message screen that says: "Please put the divinity game cd in CD drive". What should I do?
A:
step 1: Remove coffee cup from the coffee cup tray.
step 2: put the mentioned cd FACE UP in the CD tray(if don't know where this is, refer to your coffee cup tray manufacturer for latest drivers and sugar/cream).
step 3: close the tray. Avoid using your leg, your sword or any of your guns to do so. This might cause losing your coffee tray's warranty.


Q:My game frequently crashes, and the game pace is !@#$#$% slow!!!
A:Buy a new computer.
A:If you are running Windows:
1)close all programs
2)in start menu choose "close system"
3)choose "restart in DOS mode"
4)type FORMAT C: and press [enter]
5)follow the instructions
6)press [ctrl]+[alt]+[delete]
7)install any Linux distribution.
8)forget about Divine Divinity, or use "Wine". This may make a slight improvement in game pace :P...


Q:What is the silliest death in the game?
A:Summon a 1st level skeleton("skeltington"), then use any of the statues to transform yourself.

Q:Why pressing alt+tab is malfunctioning?
A:You didn't install your pirated version of the game correctly;) if you did, then your computer should've blown up.
A:You forgot to switch your PC off. Pressing the keys THEN is perfectly OK.
A:This is not Diablo. IF you purchased this game as Diablo, contact your coffee cup tray manufacturer, as we told you 2 questions earlier.

Q:What is the latest patch to the game?
A:1.34; if you still discover a lot of bugs, :divinity: proposes all-new anti-bug engine, called "Did It Erself By Userz Gunz" (D.I.E. B.U.G.); to activate it see "Larian Armor Quest"

Q:What is...
A:Stop asking these silly questions!!! Ask Raze, Lynn, or anyone else...

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />---->Known game BUGZ:

1) Infinite Loop
2) Not Activated
3) Out of Range

Plowking:

I'd like to recite a poem if I may.....it's called:
Where have all the kitties gone!!

Ahem!!

Oh where have all the kitties gone,
I can't find any, in Rivellon.
My blade is stained with kittie blood,
I hurt a few more, than I should!

Tis not my fault, they attacked me thus,
I had little choice, but to crush the puss.
Now they're gone, to kitty heaven,
It's time to find, the council of 7!

Oh where have all the kitties gone,
There are no more, in Rivellon.
But hey, you know, it's not a total loss,
Least I showed them who's the boss!!

I thank you!! (bows)

(Plowkings original, CD-Kiyas forum version)

Quote

Ode to Kitties!!
Oh were have all the kitties gone,
there are no more, in Rivellon,
'Tis not my fault they attacked me thus,
I no choice, but to crush the puss!

With sharpened sword and shield of steel,
I turn the kitties into a meal,
They claw and scrape, meow and hiss,
They are not something I shall quickly miss!

Oh were have all the kitties gone,
there are no more, in Rivellon,
Oh well tis not a total loss,
Least I showed them who's the boss!!

(Plowkings recent update to a poem. A minute of silence as a tribute to DEAD kitties required. You may leave Your hats on, still...:P)


<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />----> from the Spiders thread quote, about the size of spiders made in the game...:
Quote

Ya, it was more like rooms full of very agressive/poisonus <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" /> Mini Coopers! Sorry, all the spiders I have come into contact with were not soft and cuddly! Maybe they could be transformed into kittens? That would be nice

by MSlynx (BTW, nice nick; sort of geneboosted OS hybrid, is it not?)

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />----> from the "Small Laugh" thread, about the inventory...:
Quote

Although many games do put a limit on the amount of objects or the weight, it's still the most common thing to walk around with 3 swords, 2 shields, a bow with unlimited arrows, 50 flasks, 20 keys, scrolls, books, an entire bed ( ) etc... I've always wondered how Ms Croft and colleagues put those granade launchers, desert eagles, shotguns... in that small backpack

And then I didn't mention the medipacks yet, or how Blazkowicz (or whats-his-name)[agent Blaskowitz] in Wolfenstein 3D can instantly recover from gunshots by eating a bowl of dogmeat

by kejero
-----------------------------------------------------
PS.: Have any fine joke? Post it after...Let's have some fun, this game is INDEFINITELY worth it :P !!!


PPS.: Anybody have seen my doggie? signed: Timmie.:# [Linked Image]
now, about this hat. If anybody, and I mean: reallly!!!! anybody should find nice bonnet, fork, spoon(which, of course, there is no...), pot etc.. please - put screenie herein...!

Well, our first F.U.C.Q.(frequently unasked curiosal questions). <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
Very nice, but indeed, a bit misplaced in this section...

Q: Why is this post here, and not in chat or general section?

A: Because most of the important and funny people who play <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> are bound to see this section more often than the other sections. and then laugh their heads off, so that they are unable to make any more spoilers....:)


(ehem, ehem...I know, I know....I shouldn't play on the ambition of folks here...but still, a piece of flattery is as good, as 5 socketed 380AC shield of the dragon is...)

I once had a spoon (found it in the cursed Abbey) which had the "life absorb" spell or so.


In the Abbey, breakfast for everyone in the kitchen.

First Monk : "Ouch ! What was that ?"
Second Monk : "Oh, nothing, only a spoon of mine ...." <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Hiya guys(and gurls:)!!
Now this is a bit embarassing, for the creator of the post to have to look it up in search, but that's what I had to do, when I came here;) LOL, THAT is a joke on your side this time....BTW, - Lynn, Kiya - your response to Marians and others idea to move it was so surprisingly quick....;)
Anyways, I've almost prepared the second part of DA JOKES, it is upcoming (for anyone who is interested) in a couple of days, this time I'm making fun of the skills in the game....How would you like to see "The way of economist" with glorious "Powers of commodity and budget" as well as "Alimental powers"???
coming up shortly, let me just hang myself out a bit (someone had this spare ropes, after all.....)

hey kiya, does this mean u're not nutty anymore? i miss the nutty u, though it was more recent than the bow-to-me-mortals drow.

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> what i found in bioware forum & it's the list of english subtitles used in Hong Kong kungfu movies. maybe winterfox can verify these.

1. I am damn unsatisfied to be killed in this way.
2. Fatty, you with your thick face have hurt my instep.
3. Gun wounds again?
4. Same old rules...no eyes, no groin.
5. A normal person wouldn't steal pituitaries.
6. Damn, I'll burn you into a BBQ chicken!
7. Take my advice, or I'll spank you without pants.
8. Who gave you the nerve to get killed here?
9. Quiet or I'll blow your throat up.
10. You always use violence. I should've ordered glutinous rice chicken.
11. I'll fire aimlessly if you don't come out!
12. You daring lousy guy.
13. Beat him out of recognizable shape!
14. I have been scared ***less too much lately.
15. I got knife scars more than the number of your leg hairs!
16. Beware! Your bones are going to be disconnected.
17. The bullets inside are very hot. Why do I feel so cold?
18. How can you use my intestines as a gift?
19. This will be of fine service for you, you bag of scum. I am sure you will not mind that I remove your manhoods and leave them out on the dessert flour for your aunts to eat.
20. Yah-hah, evil spider woman! I have captured you by the short rabbits and can now deliver you violently to your gynecologist for a thorough extermination.
21. Greetings, large black person. Let us not forget to form a team up together and go into the country to inflict the pain of our karate feets on some *** of the giant lizard person.
22. I am about to choke you like a chicken!

Once upon a time in Singapore, there lived a happy couple,
Mr. & Mrs. Ng with their 3 lovely daughters; Elaine, Ena & Ella.
The 3 daughters were brought up in a prim-and-proper way and
When they reached 20, they were still virgins. Years passed, and it
was Time to get them married.
So, the parents found them the most suitable "leng chais"
(handsome guys).
They got married and were preparing to set-off on their honeymoon.
As 'concerned' parents, Mr.& Mrs. Ng were curious about
their daughters' first-night experience. So, before the
daughters went on their respective honeymoons, Mrs. Ng told
them......" Your father and I want to know about your 1st night encounters
and whether you are satisfied.
Write a letter to us, but as not to raise your husbands'
curiosity...you all must use a code-name to describe your experiences".
So, the excited daughters were off.
A week passed. Mr. & Mrs. Ng got the first letter. It was from
Elaine. They opened the letter and found the word "STANDARD
CHARTERED."
They immediately took the newspaper and looked for the
Standard Chartered advertisement.
"Ah! here it is!", exclaimed Mr. Ng. The motto for Standard
Chartered was.... "BIG, STRONG & FRIENDLY"
Mr & Mrs. Ng were happy.
A week later, they got another letter. This time it was
from Ena. The content was simple. "NESCAFE". So, again they took the
newspaper and looked for the Nescafe ad. "Ah! here it is. 'NESCAFE:
PLEASURE TILL THE LAST DROP". Mr. & Mrs. Ng jumped in joy.
Another week passed. A month passed. And another. There
was still no letter from Ella. The Ngs became worried.
Finally, the letter came. It was scribbled and could
hardly be read, but Mrs. Ng managed to figure it out. The code-name
was "SINGAPORE AIRLINES".
Why Singapore Airlines? Mr.Ng rushed
to the nearest store and got a newspaper. He flipped the pages
frantically. "Ah! Here it is!"
Mrs. Ng grabbed the page and read aloud.
Before she could finish ...THUMP!!!...she fell off her
chair.
The motto was ..."7 TIMES A WEEK. 4 TO 6 TIMES A DAY. NON-STOP".

COME ON!!!
The fun-site of life (the fansite of life?) should always be promoted!!!!
