    Remember, remember the fifth of November,
    Of gunpowder, treason and plot.
    For I see no reason,
    Why gunpowder, treason,
    should ever be forgot.

    If you've seen the film V for Vendetta, it was inspired by the true story behind Bonfire Night. The mask that V wears is supposed to be Guy Fawkes.
    There's also more verses to the poem but I only know the first one.

    I know that :blob_aww: We learned about this in English class at school (including the poem). It was always one of the most original holidays I've heard of.

    But I had no idea there can be real effigy burnings. Which is what surprised me so much when you said it ^^. And with V for Vendetta's memes, burning an Anonymous would seem so... pagan-like and mysterious now. :blob_blank:

    If I recall, I believe some effigies used to be of the Pope, too.
    After all, it was in the time close to when we'd broken from Catholicism, and Guy Fawkes was Catholic.

    It's probably just my personal preference, but I really don't like how the text and avi on the banners look...
    Not likely to use that feature on my profile - unless my mind gets changed by someone.

    I haven't decided on it yet myself ^^. I'll see what others do and what combinations of colors go best with it.

    Then again, there's the light vs dark mode and probably it would look different on each?

    /waiting till more people use the feature so I can form an opinion :blob_cookie:

    My problem is how the text looks in that weird translucent grey box they put it in when there's a banner. The placement of the avi is quite incongruous with the banner, too...
    *sigh*

    Aaah...

    I wonder if it would look less clashing with a background-wallpaper kind of banner? Like abstracts to not bother about placements too much and pastels to not drown out the text... But it would require a lot of fine-tuning to make the best use of it (?).

    /too much brain work for the little bird _(:△」∠)_

    That's fair.
    We've basically had no trick or treaters here due to CV.
    I hope you manage to stay safe, Hans; you, your family, friends and community.

    Prolly be out for some time if ever our power goes out. But thanks for that; we'll be fine. 😉

    And have a fun Haloween even though it's CV season.

    Well, it's already over in my time zone but I'm keeping the avi for those who are still in 31st Oct.

    I'm tempted to switch my avi to one of the ones I use for Halloween on NUF.
    Should I change it to this for Halloween?

    Depends on the level!

    On the low level, being a mage is a bit boring, at least to me. And I would have to depend on others too much for my liking (in evil-aligned parties that's a NO :blob_teary: . They will backstab you 100%!)

    Yet on the high levels, mages are the most fun ^^.

    That's why I prefer to stay in the healthy rogue-bard middle :blob_evil_two:. Me super smart.

    Well, I had fun in the few sessions I did manage to have.

    No worries!
    Do you ever have days where you just don't mentally feel like your normal self when you do things? The past few days have kind of been like that...

    My dreams are either horrifying, disgusting, bizarre, funny, anxiety inducing, or villainous. Yes, I do actually have villainous dreams.

    If it's just days then it should be stress.
    If it's months or years though, then your life had probably gone off track and has yet to stabilize on a new one.

    Talking from experience. Maybe I am wrong though.

    Anyway, Take care.

    Isn't toffee a type of caramel? Is toffee pudding possibly creme caramel?
    Nahrenne

    Sticky toffee pudding is a cake with dates and treacle in it that has a layer of sticky toffee sauce on top.
    It's very tasty.
    Best served with custard or vanilla ice cream, with the pudding being warm.

    Following on here doesn't work quite the same way as on SH.
    Here, it just shows when someone is online, it doesn't tell you when someone posted a status.
