You have to watch out for that Eucalyptus wine, as potent as absinthe with that wormwood stuff in it... |

So Urlii's (sp?) the IE down under, right? Wonder how he views things down there. After all, he's got this drop-bear meca, and all these other IE/Fraggle fraggers are drekin' around with his loyal army of teddy bears of death. Can't go over well. Anyone got his phone number? Maybe we can score an interview. How's he do that whole walkin' through stone thing anyways. I wanna do that. Make walking to work a lot easier, that's for sure (damn diesel gas prices :grr: ). Just walk through all the houses in the way.
Wonder how that works in SR? Can he jsut walk into any non-warded building? Sure makes finding an exit cake. |

Don't eat the worm! Heh, now I can't help but think of those worm critters in T:AL. Those are perfect to put in the eucalyptus drink. The drink of choice for Drop Bears! |

Actually, while reading thru the entire thread again the NASTIEST idea for a Shadowrun came to mind - involving genetic experiments and masterminds of Doom™ who order shadowy ninja genetically enhanced Drop Bears to assassinate key members of corps who like to depopulate forests.
Or pull a Ghost in the Shell and have some Free Spirit do a Hide Life inside a Drop Bear - so a possessed Drop Bear/spirit hybrid being the evil mastermind behind a series of runs against a bewildered Eucalyptus Importer. *cackle* |

And then the Drop Bear will Hide its Life inside the Free Spirit.

Sam 'Twist' Verner has! There was a bunyip in the second novel of the Secrets of Power trilogy. :P :) P.S. I haven't actually dipped into this thread before now, and am just catching up. I am going to have to take it in small doses though, as the doctors say that too much Drop Bear humor is bad for my health. |

Of course, the Sydney/Perth routeincludes places like the Nullarbor, which has about 1 percent of the water and double the average temperature. |

Humor? What humor? Taking the Drop Bears not seriously will bring you punishment by German Albino Ninja Drop Bear Squads. |

Nah Bunyips are an urban myth (or whatever the wilderness equivalent is). The stories spread by agents of the dropbear ninja clans. Any Bunyip attacks are simply very well disguised Dropbears. Wait a mo. In that novel Urdli put the supposed bunyip in place. Finally actual proof of the connection between IEs and the Dropbears. |

I live in Oz, and have to deal with Drop Bears everyday on my way to the supermarket. One learns to treat them with a sense of humor, or go insane ... or both, as we are talking about Aussies here. ;) :D |

I've heard you can increase your chance of having drop bears by doing the deed up in a tree. Haven't gotten a chance to try it, though. *crunch crunch* Random note, I swung by the Asian market last night and picked myself up a box of Drop Bear cookies! You guys gotta get some. *crunch crunch* They're tiny cookie drop bears, and each one is filled with a different filling. So far I've gotten chocolate, strawberry, human blood and *crunch... gasp... gasp...* *drops dead from evil drop bear candies* |

Which asian market do you go to? I've recently discovered the big korean one over in Fairfax. They have a huge selection, though they foolishly placed the drop bear cookies next to the pocky... How foolish of them, now they'll infect all these unsuspecting children! BWAHAHAHAHA |

Very gooey and tasty, they have a soft blood filling on the inside. Melts in your mouth, not in your hands, and the blood dribbles down the corners of your mouth...

We just crossed the magic mark of 666 posts in this thread! May the wisdom of the drop bears be with you, brother PlainWhiteSocks. Or sister...or whatever you want to be.

What's the number of the Drop Bear? Probably not 666, that would be too obvious and won't fit the stealthy nature of it.

You're just become our leading officer of the Anti Drop Bear Team (ADBT). Get together some willing recruits and start training. :D Better to have such a team ready.. only for the case that a mad scientist crossbreeds Drop Bears and Bees to create his own army of Dop Bear Bees. |

How impressed should I be that this is the second longest thread currently on DS? I worry for us all really.

And another reason for a party: 11111 views of the Thread. ^^
Did I mention, that I'm on holidays for 2 weeks? Enough time to get some training with my personal elite drop bear albino guard!! |

Actually it's only the third largest thread. The "Infiltration Challenges" thread and the "Can we beat the Horrors?" threads are number two and one.
