I did want to make the epic voice big by bolding the letters, but they take up too much space. Eh, whatever.
Also, if Aku can make a better Gardy sprite, be my guest. Unless you're too lazy that is.

Also,this isn't a CYOA. Or... not yet. I'm not sure.

"indirigible"?

Wouldn't that mean "uninflatable"?

"indirigible"?

Wouldn't that mean "uninflatable"?
You tell us, you're the one that said indirigible.

Bad joking aside, indirigible isn't a word. Dirigible is, but it's a noun. I really don't know what you were trying to mean there, unless it's that Aku couldn't be steered (dirigible is essentially a steerable baloon).
Not sure what you meant by uninflatable though Paul. Aside from that it's also not a word (the opposite of inflatable is deflatable; and phrase for something that can't be inflated is just "not inflatable").

here ya go. and please do use the darker colored sprite for me, if you would.

also, very nice :p

and am I the only one who thinks the word was probably intentionally made up to poke fun at the big words paul's character usually uses? :p

Dirigible is, but it's a noun.

I think you'll find it's also an adjective that means "inflatable". And for some bizarre reason, steerable, in the Merriam Webster...
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/dirigible

So indirigible might mean non-steerable. Or uninflatable. Or perhaps non-airship.

About the whole indirigible deal, I was trying to implement some of Paul's personality traits. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SesquipedalianLoquaciousness) Whether he gets those words right or not is beyond the point. Might also implement this (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SophisticatedAsHell) as well. Anyway, two new comics.

You see an attractive female in front of you. What do you do? (And keep it family friendly)

Also, anyone who mentions the whole "Gardy Loo hates girls" deal and all painful memories that are related to it will be thrown into a lake of acidic pickles. Full of acid.

A bit late for that now I've done the two parts. And I'll let you off for the statement about cooties, since that is entirely true and not offending in the least. :p

Using your manly skillz, you try to combine the two. Poetry wan't really your specialty. It turns out she wasn't an enviro-freak (which kinda makes her all the more desirable, actually) and goes off.

narrate everyhing she does.
http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/3272/cyoa3ya7.png
You follow her, narrating her every move, hoping to at least get to second base or something. You see she's on her way to a police station. Better think fast before she calls the cops on you.

>You have gloves. Punch her in the face.

Gardy is less concerned about impressing this female than he is concerned for getting arrested for harrassment of the... um, well you get the idea. Also, I'm a bit too lazy to make an inventory right now, and Gardy doesn't even have anything right I'm not sure how he'll give a non-existent puppy or a Slick statue, I'll sift through the suggestions and see what I can pick out. So anyway:

You lift your mask, showing her with your awesomely magnificent man-eyes. Now that you have her attention, you have to do something BIG. Something EPIC.

Since you don't know how do the Funky Chicken or some other disco nonsense, you resort to ballet. You unleash an utterly sexy pirouette upon her eyes, making you have +9000 charisma and making the female have -3 Willing Suspension of Disbelief.

Now the female is so stunned she's speechless and unable to call the cops. What do you do next?

I'd like to say that I'm still enjoying just about everything in this thread so far, and your sigworm has rapidly become one of my favorites. Very funny, somehow very expressive despite having a tiki mask over his actual face, and I can only wish I could come up with something so original.

That said... Blah, I still thought faking death would have won her over instantly. ...Although, hey, now that you have her attention...

Grab her tail.

You jump and grab the female's tail in an epic manner, in bullet-time as well.

http://img380.imageshack.us/img380/8475/cyoa9cj8.png
This, however, greatly angers her. The female punches you so hard you are sent a few hundred feet into the air. You lose a few teeth and bones as well.

You wave goodbye to Shadowman, ending this little adventure. He seems to have broken some teeth, but you'd rather not ask. You squirm into the sunset, ending your part of this little fad, and you decide that you want to cut on internet usage and leave the forums, either indefinitely or for a while, but people won't be hearing much from him for now, at least until you get some things done, like making the December FAotM vote thread.
