Dark knows all about things that keep coming back...

And yes, I had issues with the board the past couple of nights, too. Annoying but nothing horrid.

I might be on tonight, might not. It all depends on whether the place I'm staying at has wifi or not.

Anyway, if i don't see you guys until Monday afternoon i hope ya'll have as good a weekend as I'm gonna have :'D

Re: Member Announcements Thread

More a "member question" than a member announcement, for the members of the armed forces out there. What would "ghost riding an MRAP" be? And in case you're wondering why I'm asking...

"Ghost ride the whip" means to ride on the outside (ghost ride) of a car (whip). Near as I can tell, a MRAP would be some manner of military vehicle. Ghost Ride the Whip was also an almost popular rap song more famous for encouraging an incredibly stupid practice than any musical accomplishment.

EDIT: I found the song on youtube. Proceed at your own discretion.

Well now... never heard that term before. Apparently the comic is Canadian? Cause I've never heard MRAP before either. I think they be making shit up.

Re: Member Announcements Thread

I'm fairly certain the artist is Canadian and thus, yes, that's where it's set, though without a few references, you wouldn't be able to tell. And it's entirely possible that they did make the vehicle up (the entire premise of the comic is the kid sitting there makes a faustian deal with a succubus who gets his soul if she gets him a prom date.) or he's just not using the correct term for it.

Also, thank you, Newbie.

Re: Member Announcements Thread

MRAP or Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle. From what I can tell (read: Wikipedia) it's a type of vehicle designed to be more resistant to IED attacks and ambushes. It appears to be a mostly United States thing.
