Firefly speak vs. Terminator speak

GWC Community Geek Deathmatch
#1

Gather ‘round hombres. Thotfullguy reckons this deathmatch might stir up a might passel of fun. Ain’t no Gao yang jong duh goo yang in the verse gonna top this one. Now listen up. This ain’t like the other Fei hua deathmatches. The other ones are gos se compared to this. Now I want you bending your eyes in my directshun so I can do you some edjucating on the rules of this particular match.
Now I’m talkin’ not just Chuck’s general deathmatch rules. Thems rules still apply here to. I’m talking about a few extra rules added here by my-own self.

First off, if you vote in this poll, I don’t want to see you lighting a shuck and vamoosing out of town. Thotfullguy don’t take kindly to that Fong luh behavior. If you take my meaning, I’m saying if you vote in the poll, post a comment too soz you can be ‘splainin’ your vote to the rest of the posse, Dong-ma?

Okay, Second rule: On this thread there’s only gonna two ways you’re allowed to be conversating. I only wanna see you either talkin’ in Firefly speak or in Terminator speak. Now don’t get all flusterized. It ain’t that hard.
Firefly speak means you talk in a cowboy/western style. What do I mean by that? I mean similar-like the way I’ve been speaking the past three paragraphs here. But it’s not just western/cowboy style. You get to throw in some Chineese phrases too just to keep things shiny. Now don’t just sit there like a BUN tyen-shung duh ee-DWAY-RO complainin’ that you don’t got the tougue for Chineese speakin’. Just dust off your google, and you’ll be flying straight in no time.

The other way you’re allowed to speak here is Teminator speak. You know. Short sentences. “I’ll be back”. “Stick around”. You just have to be brief and terse and Arnold like.
Obey or suffer.
Post and vote. Don’t just vote.

Now, Thot, I reckon ye’s forgot ta vote, but since I dislike mightily writin’ English in this gorram style, this’ll have to do for my post.

#3

I’ll be back. To vote that is.

#4

I gorram voted. I’m off to my bunk. :smiley:

#5

What a shiny little poll you’ve got here.

Can someone pass over the Fruity Oat Bars or are we down to protein cake leftovers?

"gun hoe-tze bee dio-se - Engage in a feces-hurling contest with a monkey "

Whew. What would I do if I didn’t know how to say that?

#8

I reckon you ladies brought this thread down the gutterly direction straight-off and proper-like. And I take that as a kindness, what with GR being off rangering and all.

Me, I do respect the Terminator’s brevity when it comes to conversating and such. That machine is almost Pike-like in his gift for terseness. But my saddle’s well hitched to Firefly, so that’ll be wear I’ll be resting my go tsao de vote.

Yipee! Another place where I can misbehave and the like!

Well ain’t you as cute as all get out, being all sassy with Thotfullguy.
Bao bay, you’re voter #1

I’m feeling all magnanous-like on this 'ticular day, spatter, so I’m not as like to draw iron 'gainst you for steally my “bunk”. You’re voter #2.

Conversating 'bout a man’s poll is downright, well … shiny. I’d be a real BUN tyen-shung duh ee-DWAY-RO if I didn’t comenderate you for being voter #3.

Well, I shoulda kept my eyes on dusty horizon there. Shoulda seen this coming down the trail. Man’s gotta figure that Pike would draw his shootin’ iron and come up with a way to blend Firefly speak and Terminator speak using just the one bullet. Your voter #4, you guh jun duh hwoon dahn.

Now here’s something shiny. I respect a man who’s not 'fraid to take a different trail. My guess is you’re our one Terminator speak voter so far. Now some would say that’s all fahng-tzong fung-kwong duh jeh. But not me. Good for you, voter #5.

DawnEZ…mind if I call you “Easy”? You haven’t changed you avatar and I take that as a kindness. If anyone tells you to change it you just tell 'em “Choo fay wuh suh leh”. I know, I know…it ain’t but a cartoon and all, but those legs go all the way up, and make a man want to vamoose to his bunk. Good to have you here. You’re voter #6.

Okay, now that I’ve got my posse all rounded up and the like, time to do some figurin’ . Now Jayne, he’s not so good at numbering, but me, I can be mathamtical and such when occasion requires. So by my count there’s SIX voters who’ve posted in this thread, add yours truly and that’s SEVEN.
Well now, ain’t that just a Da-shiong bao-jah-shr duh la doo-tze!!
That’s seven such good folk that voted and posted out of a total of TEN voters so far. Now that AIN’T shiny. Thotfullguy don’t take kindly to that Fei hua, ‘specially when I was so clarified with mine rule tellin’ .

Whomever you other three varmits are, you mount up your horse and make a trail back here pronto and post a comment. Don’t be a FAY-FAY duh PEE-yen. Or else leastwise leave note saying “I’ll be baack.” :smiley:

#13

it may shock y’all who are weaned on tv-land chinese, but there are other chinese dialects other than cantonese and putonghua.:mad:

btw, i’m half teochew. :p;)

#14

the official Deathmatch Rules state that the polls are to remain anonymous. having to post about our vote un-anonymous-izes it! does that seem right to you??

actually I am just incapable of talking in either speak. can’t talk like a pirate either.

#15

It’s just exit polling. Mandatory exit polling. :slight_smile:

actually I am just incapable of talking in either speak. can’t talk like a pirate either.
