Duhhhhh... everyone knows that he only likes peppermint sprinkles on his MOCHA coffee, which he only has during Tuesdays.

... you didn't throw away the peppermint sprinkles entirely, did you?

*gasp* How can anyone not like peppermint sprinkles??? D= That’s it. I’m afraid I cannot support the reign of Bob anymore, unless Bob offers a sincere apology to those peppermint sprinkles and happily drinks a mocha coffee with them. (Assuming Snoink has the correct information… Snoink, if this is simply an attempt to aggravate Bob further, I now stand wholeheartedly with you. >.> *waves peppermint sprinkles in Bob’s general direction*)

Needless to say, Bob did not like having the peppermint sprinkles waved at him.

~ 0 days since Bob last got unhappy ~


Since we have lost some worshippers and appear to be on a losing streak, I suggest we raise the number of Bob’s daily praise rituals from 18 to 23. Any objections from loyal supporters of Bob?

Not to be too cynical, but have you forgotten this so soon?

SilverNight wrote:It is with a heavy heart that I must recap the events of yesterday.

On March 21st, YWS was struck with a Category Five Bob Event. The incident was triggered after one of the “mods”/boberators (I will not be naming names) assigned to the job of keeping Bob happy only did seventeen of the eighteen praise rituals Bob needs every day. The results were immediate and disastrous. YWS’ population of chickens was in terrible danger after the Chicken Lit genre received a devastating attack from Bob’s wrath and was nearly destroyed, but with a swift response from the boberator team, the Chicken Lit genre was saved and restored.

It is more important to keep moving forward in the fallout of disasters like these than to dwell on it, so instead of logging a 0 days note yesterday, I decided to log a 1 day note today. Stay hopeful and brave, team— we will get the hang of this.

... and you want to increase the rituals -- which you already have a hard time completing! -- even more???

Yeah, that's not gonna work. Just give it up... you don't have to cater to every tantrum Bob has. Especially if merely waving peppermint sprinkles is enough for him to lose it...

I think Bob needs to take a few deep breaths and leave for a meditation retreat. Preferably one far away from any other toppings he might insult. >:(

(it's okay, peppermint sprinkles, i love you even if Bob doesn't. []~( ̄▽ ̄)~*)

@tatteredbones, Bob is a tyrant who demands sacrifice whenever the Green Room has too many works in it. Lately, he's been very grumpy...

Ahem. Bob is a wonderful wizard and it is the hardest thing ever an honor to serve his every need! Sorry, but we've got to go forward with these rituals.

As for @Spearmint's proposal-- would it be worth suggesting a nice, fun vacation to Bob? I hear it might be hard to get him to leave the Green Room though.

I say no. If we send him on vacation, then we won't be able to afford our office pig. Which would be terrible.

We need to prioritize our needs before the needs of this tyrant.

Okay, okay— maybe we can cut something besides the pig funding. Any suggestions??

Oh— oh dear. Did you eat all the peppermint sprinkles or… all the sprinkles? Because Bob really likes some of those.

I wouldn't usually suggest such an extreme measure, but...would it be possible to simply banish Bob from the YWS Kingdom at this point? I mean, let's be honest, this is getting a bit out of control. He's a tyrant who demands constant validation, attention, and costly placation, and frankly we have neither the funds nor manpower to keep this up indefinitely. @_@

Clearly he isn't that influential if half of us don't even know who he is or what his origin is. I really think his reign is being powered solely by the air of mystery that surrounds him. Why can't we just...put him on a boat and send him off to an isolated island? We can make sure it has a similar climate to the dungeon under the green room (mossy, damp - jungle vibes, perhaps?) and we can call it a "vacation" if that will make him more cooperative. Send along a cup of coffee with peppermint sprinkles as well, for good riddance.

Best idea yet.
