Though many of you have good intentions when cross posting from other Tribes or listing a sale by your company, an event you'd like everyone to hear about, etc, please remember--this Tribe is for humor posts only. To be fair to everyone, I'll have to delete anything else. See the introduction to the Tribe....

SOrry if I've deleted your post recently, but it's out of fairness to others I've deleted in the past. Nothing personal.

Talking SCA Barbie

2008-05-21T01:30:00Z

Saw this posted elsewhere (don't know the original source), and thought it was too good not to share:
New from MATTEL:

Barbie has been everywhere, and done everything... almost. Now she's getting into the newest craze:

Medieval Recreation. Yes, Barbie is joining the SCA. The new Talking SCA Barbie will give your youngster minutes of fun, and teach her nothing about history whatsoever.

Talking SCA Barbie comes complete with tavern wench outfit, including a skirt made from old feast tablecloths, a chemise that barely covers, a hand-tooled lace up leather bodice, and an extra-long Norman sword belt, which can hold every accessory that you can purchase for her.

Currently available accessories:
glass-bottom fake pewter mug (or the same in the deluxe model, inscribed “Hillsboro Oktoberfest, 1978”)
foot-long “eating knife”
leather pouch with genuine Celtic fairy tooled on it (available in black, green, and fluorescent pink)
genuine polyester gabardine half circle cloak, with or without hood
Birkenstocks
sleigh bells
whip
fox tail (just like Eleanor of Aquitaine used to wear)
garage sale necklace, bracelet, and ring set
veil, which can be held on with the optional decorative chain mail coif
unread copies of Kingdom newsletter (Kingdom of your choice)
83 different event and feast tokens

And here's what she says!
"Hello, Sir Knight (giggle)"
"I don't like her, she's mean."
"Fighters smell bad."
"I want to be Queen."
"Research is hard."
"I'll find someone to carry that, Your Majesty."
"It's period...I saw it in a movie."
"Courts are boring."
"It's all about the Dream!"
"There's nothing to DO!"

Barbie's not going into the Knowne Worlde alone. Oh no, she's convinced Ken to come along. Being a manly sort, Ken goes in for the combative arts. Yes, your child will get moments of pleasure reenacting historical tournaments, just like in A Knight's Tale!

Ken comes with ratty T-tunic, jeans, sneakers, and a belt from the thrift store. But just like Barbie, that's just the beginning.

The following accessories are available:
Combat kit, comes with:
o Genuine blue plastic armor (with a sticker on the front that says, "EZ Wash Detergent")
o Barrel helm from old Polidor pattern, made by his buddy who welds a bit
o rattan sword with basket hilt that was made when freon cans were legal
o authentic wood-grain shield
o duffle bag
Combat upgrade kit, comes with:
o combat boots
o sweatpants
o polearm that looks like a lint brush
o duct tape
o ball peen hammer
5 foot long sword from the Bud K catalog
ice bucket that looks like a tankard
Thor's hammer necklace
16 different styles of belt favor (collect ‘em all)

Says:
"I should be a Knight."
"I could beat him."
"He's a rhinohide."
"There's other Peerages?"
"A shiny new helm will make me fight better."
"A&S is for wimps."
"She's cute, I'll make her Queen."
"I'll duct tape that back on."
"Rapier isn't real fighting."
"He doesn't take blows."
"See my new bruise."

I just can't take myself that seriously. Or, how to create a persona.

2007-09-21T03:45:49Z

The "Why I'm not going to PENNSIC" thread is hilarious.

Vampire teeth and glow sticks? I wouldn't have thought that went on there. Pagan festivals, Burning Mans, sure...but PENNSIC? Surely there's a sumptoury law against Hot Topic corsets somewhere...

Anyways, I'm debating this whole "persona" thing.

Everything I've been reading just...isn't...fun.

Too much clothing, for one thing. All these layers...and I can't find a society that was OK with women drinking heavily and being bawdy.

Gypsies, eh.

Picts, Visigoths, maybe? That's what I've narrowed it down to, but still...

I'd like to have a bit of fun with it.

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

Any funny stories out there regarding your own sexual experienes (or those of a friend) in the SCA? I'm sure given the other name of the SCA--Society for Consenting Adults--there must be a couple of you at least with "morning after the mead" stories. Just keep it non-personal (we don't want names!) and not TOO crude. I DO reserve the right to delete anything that is over the top or inflammatory.

The most ridiculous thing I ever hear :::Latley:::!!!

2007-07-05T15:58:04Z

I have a friend in the SCA in Virginia that has been a Member since 1983. She has held Kngdom offices and even started Offices in new Kingdoms. So she Offered to be the Chatelaine in a new canton wich she did. Then when the Local Baronial Chatelaine was stepping down..she applied for the position...Never heard back, So at canton meeting the baronial seneshall was asked about it. He said..now get this...
" We would rather have a centrally located Castellan with in the Barony..not an Outskirts Chatelain..so as better to serve our needs:: WHATTT????
So does this mean to be KIng of a Kingdom only, "Centrally Located" Populace can fight in a tourney ?
Or maybee all the Guild masters and Masters and Mistresses of the pelicans and Laurals who do not live Centrally located to the kingdom should GIVE UP their Possitions to a more Geographical person.
Man this Club is getting rediculous.

Posting Of Events, etc.

2007-06-22T21:32:59Z

Some of you may have noticed that I've gone through and deleted some threads. I hate doing this--but these were all of an event announcement or sales announcement nature. As stated in the Tribe description, this Tribe is for humor--and I ask in the description that we stick to that on this Tribe. I realize some of you may simply be hitting this Tribe as part of a multi-Tribe posting--but please--think before you check that little box in the postings section.

So please--No event postings or sales postings etc. There are plenty of Tribes out there to post those sort of things that are more appropriate. Let's stick to the funny stuff.

Thanks.

Hello everyone--yer moderator here--I just wanted to let you all know that I deleted a post from Belle about a rather gruesome double murder that has recently occured and has not received media attention. She understandably is outraged and wants to spread the word about this--however--as moderator, I made the decision that this type of Tribe is simply not an appropriate place for this particular post. If you'd like a link to the URL she posted, I suggest that you link to her blog, as it is posted there.

I simply felt that this serious and heinous a story deserves a better venue for reading than our goofy little Tribe. I hope I do not offend anyone, especially Belle, by removing it.

Thanks

“Fighting Rapier”
By Brigit Thornwielder

To the Tune of “Making Whoopie”

Ya can’t be princes, ya can’t be kings
Because you play with
Those pointy things
You picked the wrong toys,
that’s what you get boys
For fighting rapier.

Ya can’t be knights
Ya can’t be squires
They call you pansy
Around their fires
You picked the wrong toys
That’s what you get boys
For fighting rapier.

You never get the women
And it will make you frown
Don’t forget all those women
Are busy chasing crowns

You’re looking dapper
When ev’ you play
You hear her whisper
“D’ya think he’s gay?”
You picked the wrong toys
That’s what you get boys
For fighting rapier.

You buy her trinkets
And make her moan
But then some stick jock
Wins her the throne
You picked the wrong toys
That’s what you get boys
For fighting rapier.

You just want them to respect
You’re more than a pretty mug
Just when you think they respect
Someone calls you a “thug”
Your fighting’s awesome
You’ve reached your peak
But still the heavies
Call you “pipsqueak”
You picked the wrong toys
That’s what you get boys
For fighting rapier.

You’ll get your revenge
On that fine day
When they are too old
For what they play
They’ll come to you boys
To play with your toys
And they’ll fight rapier!
And they’ll fight rapier!

2006-12-04T22:38:18Z

It is morning you have to pee. You are chilled to the bone and have no desire to stand. The pounding in your head is intollerable, drums, the crack you took on the helm yesterday or the hangover left behind from last night? Doesn't really matter. You fudge around your tent looking for something warm to wear and cover for your feet, don't want to step where the pirate puked last night. You make your way out of the cloth canvas home, towards the port-o-johns. You open them up in hope that the shit dragon has been by, NO SUCH LUCK. The bathroom is filled to the hilt and smells, enough to remind you that yes the skull pounding is from a hangover, cause now you are going to copy last night's pirate.
You finish your business and make your way back to the encampment. A pretty yet taken girl there says to you, "coffee?" The invite reminds you that all is not bad here so you happily accept. The tar bean tea warms you and begins to spark the synapses within your skull to chase away your headache. Since you did regurgitate two minutes ago you dont mind the bitter unsweetened brew. You think to yourself wow I have got to brush my teeth. You dig around your tent get your paste and brush the feeling is refreshing. Now your coffee is really starting to taste good. Another dame in your encampment is grabing a skillet and some potatoes, bacon and eggs and says "breakfast in a half hour."
Meanwhile one of the heralds screams towards your camp "armor inspection at 7:00 o'clock". You think again to yourself it is going to be a good day. This thought comes as bacon falls to the skillet with a sharp sizzle and a all to friendly smell. Better start armoring up while breakfast cooks.
You struggle with your armor, put on a few pounds since last year. Then you guilt yourself for not getting out to practice enough. you sit down and eat your breafast the eggs are dry and the open fire cooking has burnt the bacon. Yet for some reason it is the best breakfast you have eaten in a long long time. There is just something about this place that makes almost anything taste great.
Off to the battlefield, you and five of your friends start the long march to battlefield C. Your leg armor is rubbing a hole right through your thigh. You all chant some damn saying in latin your whole way there and you wonder to yourself "what the hell does that mean anyway?"
The words "LAY ON" resonate through the air and you are on the front line. You move foreward towards your enemy, wait a minute didn't he share his thirty year old scotch with me last night? Screw it NO MERCY you lash out with your weapon a clean kill. Then two more and as quickly as it began "HOLD!" You freeze wondering to yourself "god I wish they could find some way to have less holds around here." The three men you killed magicaly get up and move off from the feild as if god was taking their spirits. "LAY ON!" THUNK!!!!! before you even had the chance to get in a defensive position combat resumed and you are now dead. So you wait for the next hold to float away.
Back to camp, you need a shower. You strip out of your armor and gather up your washing supplies. Then you conduct the long walk to the shower trailers. My god that is a long line!!! Oh well sweat don't go away by itseft you are going to have to wait. Time ticks buy and you are further up in line. Lets see I have been here a half an hour and.... wait a minute I havent moved at all the line just got longer behind me.
Two hours and fourty-five minutes later...... You are back at camp. Feels good to be clean. "Do you want to go shoping and get some lunch at merchants row?" a cute petite voice calls out from behind a tent "so far six of us are going ."
"Sure" you reply.
Your little caravan walks up to sea of vendors. You have one hundred and eighty six dollars and fifty-seven cents. Good to know you filled your gas tank so no frieght to the trip home. Damn thats a nice sword! two hundrend and twenty bucks though. Keep moving. Hey that drum there is only eighty. Fine now you have one hundred six dollars and fifty-seven cents. SHIT!!!! a vendor five merchants down, on the same street, has that same drum, tuned better for sixty-five. Too late now!
Ah hagas, now there is a lunch for warriors. "Three bucks please" says a rather scary looking individual handing you a small bowl of gut mush with two crackers. You find a small opening at the table between a couple of poeple arguing wether or not one of their shoes is period. You begin to dig in. Well mabey this place doesn't make EVERYTHING taste great! "Where did my friends run off to anyway? I guess I lost them when I payed too much for that drum. Oh well, still got my hagus!" you sarcasticaly think to yourself.
You have retuned once again to camp. "So are we going to throw a party or go wandering?" you ask to the others at camp.
"Were going to wander. We only got five cases of pilsner, vodka and juice, two fiths of rum, a bottle of scotch, that keg of home brew anguss made, six bottles of wine, fourteen pints of mead, some gin, a half gallon of tequila, and some of the peprmint schnaps left. There just simply isn't enough booze for us to hold a party." one of them replys with all the seriousness of an imperial coronation.
Anywhere else you would have been taken aback by the comment but for some reason it made sence here.
Time ticks again once more and you tried to kill some by chopping some wood with an ax and tapping on the skin of your new drum. Others in your camp take cat naps in the shade. As one of them begins to snor you realize between chopping wood and pounding on a drum you should probably leave.
You make your way from camp to camp saying hello to friend newly met over the last couple of nights and a few you havent seen since the last war. Before you know it, the sun is making it's way towards the horizon. As you begin to return to camp a rather unatractive person says " Hi!" and places one arm around your waist and the other on your ass. You think to yourself who in the hell is this person. "Don't you rmember me" the person asks "we played cloven fruit last night"
You really don't remember them and say "Oh yeah how could I forget?"Using every single slip away line you can think of, you free yourself from their grasping conversation. You met up with your travel party just in time for the sunset. You start off light reminding yourself that you puked this morning so just a beer. You all move to a camp on the next road and as you walk in, a plump man, in a full beard, with a lazy eye says "Ya want some chilli?" as he hovers over a huge pot of the stuff stiring it with his dirk.
You say "why not I'm gonna need some dinner." The chilli is awesome and it's a good thing you chose beer, they go well together. you hang awhile with your friends and realize there is not going to be any drumming or dancing here tonight and you say your thanks and move on. Now it is full on dark and a small cloaked man holding a candle lamp stops you in the street. "You are going to hell for your sins you fowl and retched creature!" says his pare of pale dry lips from under his cloak hood. KEEP MOVING!
Hey in the distance you hear the sound of drums...... You make your way to the party and realize they are all playing independently of each other and very much off beat. None of the dancers are enjoying themselves either. KEEP MOVING!
Then you once again detect the sound of drums....... After a long walk you find the street that the party is on. The music is wonderful and so is the dancing. You make your way to the bar and realize your camp did have enough alcohol to do this. The drinking is on, some of this, that runs out, some of that, that runs out, before you know it you are lost in the scene and you don't even know what all you drank anymore but your stomach is telling you that it does not agree with hagus and chilli. You ignor the stomach pains and keep on partying. Damn it got cold!!!! You realize that no matter how close you get to the fire you still can't stay warm anymore. You begin to leave when a beautiful maiden in in a bustiae asks you if you can escort her back to camp. "Of course my lady" and the two of you hold to each other tight to fight off the cold. You get to her tent and one thing leads to another and the two of you make love.
The next mornig you awake not so cold as you are snuggled to the lady. Then she turns to you and you realize that it is the woman who you didn't find so attractive while you were sober but swore to you, you played cloven fruit with her two nights prior.

Hmm is this "socially challenged" enough?

2006-10-23T02:34:51Z

LOL! We attended a local event simply to be recognized as part of the group we belong to coming out of incipiency and to help show to the sponsoring group that we are many in number & that they shunned us.

Crossposting griping (RANT)

2006-10-11T19:28:06Z

Ok why do folks feel teh need to crosspost things to every SCA lsit they are on? First this week we had the Let's all go to Cooper's posting that was crossposted and if you want to keep abreast of all the conversation you need to be on at least 6 different tribes. Sheesh! Talka bout a waste of time trying to keep track of it all.

Then this morning the crosspost that was made about tehis time capsule that Yahoo will be shooting into space crossposted to a bunch of tribes. Come on folks! If I saw it in one tribe I don't really need to see it in 20!

Silly SCAisms

2006-09-24T19:48:09Z

What sort of SCAisms do you find particularly silly? By this I mean things that are specific to the SCA--such as things we do in the name of medievalism that were NEVER done in period, etc. Keep it humorous, please....

Mine?

1. Calling our fighting field "eric." Sure, I know the history behind this one--but come on....what if the guy had been named Bruce--or Harold--or even Bob? It took me a good long while as a newbie to figure out what the hell the "eric" was. Any wonder the fringies look at us in bewilderment when we tell them there is a potluck on the "eric" that they should come to???

early am stuff /gripes

2006-07-22T20:51:41Z

Ugh, can they please stop having things start early in the AM sat... I'm still a little drunk by then?

Also seriously, daytripping needs to be supported (in the West). Some folk don't have the option of spending a whole weekend on campsite.

Funny Photos Wanted

2006-07-20T11:17:30Z

Have a SCA photographic faux pas that is just plain funny? Catch someone on film doing something truly silly is in the spirit of this Tribe? Post it to our album! To do so, just click on the photo that is for this Tribe (that's me, btw) and it will take you to our album.

BTW--I DO reserve the right to delete stuff that might get us in trouble as a Tribe. If you aren't sure, send the photo along to me privately and we'll discuss it.

Pennsic Fever!

2006-06-28T01:53:48Z

To the tune of "Cabin Fever" from Muppets Treasure Island

Pennsic Fever

I got Pennsic fever it's burning in my brain
I've got Pennsic fever it's driving me insane
We got Pennsic fever, we're flipping our bandanas
Been stuck without it for so long we have simply gone bananas

Ariba!
Chica chica boom
A chica chica boom boom chic
Chica chica boom
A chica chica boom boom chic

We got Pennsic fever we've lost what sense we had
We got Pennsic fever, we're all going mad

My sanity is hanging by a thread
Since we're going nowhere I've gone out of my head

Grab your partner by the armor
Lash him to his shield
Do-si-do step on his toe
Listen to him squeal
Allemande left, allemande right
It's time to party and drink
Swing your partner round the side
And hope those kilts don’t shrink!

We got Pennsic fever
No if's, and's, or but's
We're disoriented
And demented
And a little nuts

Vlad’s Pavilion, und a Pirate Ship
(Yodel-lay-ee-hoo)
belly dancers, Tuchux warriors,
on our camping trip
(Yodel-lay-ee-hoo)

We were dreaming of fighting, the Celts were on our side
And then it died

I've got Pennsic fever
I’m craving chocolate milk
I'd like to get my hands on
whoever wrote this filk
Si!

I was floating 'neath a Cooper moon
And dreaming of a bog lagoon
Now I'm crazy as a loon

Pennsic fever has ravaged all a-board
This once proud tribe group has become a blogging psycho ward
We were dreaming of battles charging into who knows where
And now though we're all here
We're not all there

Pennsic fever!
