MilliAARP

[buongiornodaisy.livejournal.com]

In response to this thread: we can has MilliAARP nao y/n?

It needn't be a formal group. In fact, it can just be an occasional informal meeting of Milliways' 50+ contingent when they happen to be in the same place at the same time and decide to share effective methods of getting those damn kids off the lawn. (Besides, if Skinner's canon teaches anything, it's that an organized group of older folk is about as innocent as a bunch of knitters drinking tea. Not innocent at all!)

So, thoughts form those who have 50+ pups? Those who don't? Shall they all get together and bond and become BFF? We also must have a serious discourse on the admittance of those dirty cheaters, the immortals, into the AARP club thing.

I think I speak for us all when I say;

Muahahahahaha!

*ponders*

Well. Jack is fifty-two...

[sdelmonte]

Hmmm. As noted, I play three pups in this age range (Gibbs, Kirk and Dean O'Dell). I don't think any of them thinks of himself as old, though. But I am willing to see where this goes.

[buongiornodaisy.livejournal.com]

My over fifty pup doesn't consider himself old, either, and would run away from any group catering to "old people," but if the group catered to a carefully worded demographic of people over the age of fifty, and wasn't about the hardships of being "old," but rather served as a social network for people who are not old dammit, just over the age of fifty, he would be cool with that.

Would that also sound agreeable to your pups?

[muji]

To this I say 'Word.'

[sdelmonte]

I am definitely game, don't worry. But it will take some doing to get my pups involved. O'Dell is most likely to join, since he's called himself an old man canonically. Gibbs is from a time when you didn't have such labels. And Kirk...I think that he hasn't felt younger in years. And is also part of his social circle at home (which is part of why he's so hard to play sometimes).

[scurlock]

Won't be able to get in on the fun until if/when the next round of apps is a go, but I'd be down with it.

[perfectblue.livejournal.com]

As a player of an ancient demoness-thing who looks all of 28ish, I say don't let immortals and such in unless they actually look and act 50+.

Muahaha. I am a traitor to my own kind!

[gramarye1971]

Seems a sensible enough policy to me. *grins, ignoring Merriman's sidelong look*

[aberrantangels]

Well, my probably-emortal pup (md_donighal) tends to act my (calendar) age of 37 (rather than his own 225 or so), so he's out. I have a pup who's both mortal (dead, actually) and over 50, but last_master has currently forgotten both of these facts about himself.

[countofserenno.livejournal.com]

And I have one who is old enough to join...

*snerks at an evil thought*

And one whom I might look into making old enough to join. The thought of Fett getting dragged into such a group...just...*evil laugh*

[autocommander.livejournal.com]

I need to find myself agreeing with this.

I'm at least 20,000 years old, and if I joined, I'd have to get all of you off my lawn.

And I don't have a lawn. I'd have to get a lawn, and then get you all off of my lawn.

[perfectblue.livejournal.com]

Pffff. Illyria has been trying to get all these filthy mortals off her metaphorical lawn for years now.

[autocommander.livejournal.com]

I do not even have a lawn.

Oddly, I do have some young humans running around the base.

So if I got a lawn, I could tell them to get off the lawn.

I need to consider this. It has some merit, if only to watch Ironhide vent lubricant while expressing his appreciation of the humor involved.

I must agree.

[zealous-kheran.livejournal.com]

Greetings, Optimus Prime. Over twenty thousand? You have me bested by only ten millennia. Perhaps another club is in order for ageless aliens, whether they be biological or technological life forms?

Re: I must agree.

[autocommander.livejournal.com]

I spent a great deal of time in a stasis lock while travelling through space.

Then there is a different canon, where I am actually something on the order of nine million. But the movie canon indicates about 20,000, so I am using that.

That could be an interesting club!

[weeper-of-blood.livejournal.com]

God damn, I need to get me an older pup!

[muji]

Yes. Yes you do. *shoves Leo McGarry at you*

[weeper-of-blood.livejournal.com]

*strokes Leo oh-so-lovingly* I am not worthy of such awesomeness. D:

[muji]

Yeah you are, don't lie.

*does not have own agenda*

*nope*

[weeper-of-blood.livejournal.com]

If only I'd viewed more than two series of West Wing! *eyes friends uber collection of box sets*

Leo = too l33t for a mere mortal.

[muji]

-sniffles- Fine. :(

LOL it's cool -- you should still pilfer and app him later?

[weeper-of-blood.livejournal.com]

That a whoooole lotta episodes to watch. :P

[scurlock]

Aye. *enables* DOOOOOO IIIIIIIIIT.

[bcgphoenix]

Aw, damn, my oldest non-immortal pup's too young by five or six years. (And not even in the bar yet, but pfft. Details.)

Oh well. *giggles* This is still gonna be fabulous to watch.

[prix-etoile.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, too bad my oldest is like...thirty something.

He'd love to yell at kids on lawns. BUT I APPROVE...JUST SO I CAN READS IT.

[talkstohats]

Sophie mourns her missed opportunity. Darn aging-and-de-aging hijinks!

[mnt_mike]

Part time member?

[talkstohats]

She can shake her stick at youngsters with the best of them!

[ana-pascal.livejournal.com]

I think Sophie would have been the founding member of the Red Hat Society (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Society).

[talkstohats]

HA. Yes, she would have. And been bitter about being demoted to pink-and-lavender, too!

[muji]

Sallie likes Sophie all to hell; she'll nominate her anyhow. :D

[talkstohats]

They need to talk again!

[muji]

They -do-, considering Sallie just thinks she's a kooky old lady.

[talkstohats]

*giggles* Well. Now she's a kooky young lady?

*makes mental note to hit you up for thread as soon as Sophie gets back from her current expedition*

[puckishly.livejournal.com]

Puck says it's not his fault that he's totally fabulous and superior.

=P

[soulburden.livejournal.com]

Holy crap this is JUST what I need to get me back into the groove now that I'm on the mend!

[kali921.livejournal.com]

Does it count if your pup is over six thousand years old, but only looks 29 or so? I'm thinking of a certain white haired woman from the planet Khera, who has previously expressed in her canon how irritated she is by naive youngsters in their mere hundreds. Or twenties. Or teens.

[watcher-g-man.livejournal.com]

Well, pretty sure Giles is 50ish now, even though he wouldn't necessarily consider himself old. (Despite teenagers frequently calling him ancient in canon... Also fuddy duddy.) Maybe well-seasoned, but I suppose he wouldn't mind meeting people who have appreciation of history and when music was "good" and not "noise."

[buongiornodaisy.livejournal.com]

I suppose he wouldn't mind meeting people who have appreciation of history and when music was "good" and not "noise."

He and Skinner will become BFF!!!

[watcher-g-man.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Heee, that'll be fun. (so needs to see the rest of Hot Fuzz...)

[governor-swann.livejournal.com]

Aw man, all my old characters die and get retired.

*pats Dumbledore and Swann*

[muji]

*eyes Sallie*

So I heard. *pouts*
