So how did that drop bear shelter go? You have a lot of competition from Universal Brotherhood? I heard they were setting up drop bear eucalyptus kitchens throughout New York.

Regarding the french revolution: Did you ever ask yourself if they really intended to mount sharp blades on their guillotines (sp?), or if they had to do because drop bears where in short supply? |
well they weren't that sharp (relied on weight/momentum IIRC) but thats beside the point.
No the guillotine was used to throw their enemies off the tracks of their Drop Bear ninja allies.

Exactly, 666 posts, the Number of the Drop Bear.

Nah, you're looking at it from the wrong perspective.
From above, 666 looks like 999 - so 999 is in fact the actual number of the Drop Bear Horror.

I'll have you know I take the drop bear threat very seriously! We're digging a drop bear shelter at home! (it's a nice warm place for all the displaced drop bears to go. We serve them hot soup, give them blankets, and teach them of our lord. They infect us. It's a fair trade)

Ummm.. why was I not aware of the aforementioned "Drop Bear Shelter"?? Though...it does explain the strange noises... and the disappearing Ritz crackers... hmmmm.

"slightly" afraid? then obviously you don't understand the full extent of the threat.
You haven't seen the shelter yet? The kids are helping me dig it underneath their beds. I told them that drop bears eat clowns. So they're trying to get them to move in to stop the clowns. Which is why they keep saying "can't sleep, clowns will eat me". They're digging when you're not looking.
Oracle: I knda doubt it. Would you
purposefully try to capture a diseased animal that is a know man eater in a cute cudly costume and display it to little kiddies? Hmm.... let me rephrase. Would a
zoo do that?
BTW, I'm in Orem Utah, cube 2068. I forget which continent and planet though. I think it's the blue one. The planet that is. I think the continents green or yellow, I forget. But I know Madascgar's always purple!

Horros are not immune to physical damage so a platoon of Drop Bears probably can harm and even kill a Horror.

We need to cross-breed Drop Bears and insects so we get Chitin-armored Drop Bears.

Spiders are no insects. They are arachnoids. That's why there are no spider spirits in canon. Yes, I know. There is that one single stupid novel. Just ignore that one single stupid novel.
Grinder
Sep 23 2005, 08:30 AM
And they have to chitin-armor, so they're not usuable for our breeding experiments.

you guys keep saying 'possibly'. Of COURSE it is!. I just don't know exactly what kind of conspiracy.... yet. But be sure that it's fiendish. Diabolical even.
Really it's likely that the spider just likes drop bears as a snack. like those little red hot tamales. Regular koalas are yummy, HMHVV infected ones have some spice.

If the spiders gets the Drop Bears by surprise, while the latter are asleep: yes, maybe.
But in a regular fight our furry Drop Bears will certainly win.

Spiders fight without honor, so they may cast a Stunball on a commandon of Ninja Drop Bears and attack them afterwards.
But our Improved Cybered Albino Ninja Drop Bears are immune to that spell.

You've got to understand. The drop bear is in a perpetual state of drowsiness, so stunballs have no effect ever, the albinos are just that much more intimidating.

The dropbear was one of the bigger parts of cheese we (deliberately) included in T:AL. With all of the scare-the-tourist legends floating about in the present day, we basically had to put the funny joke in.
I mean, who really expects a carniverous koala??
The Bunyip on the other hand should be scary-as-shit, awakened Platypus though it is.
It was actually pretty hard writing up critters, since most of them were done pretty well already (Mmmm, megalodon). Or sucked. We came to the conclusion that without high reaction, armour or stealth a critter wasn't going to last the first round against a sammie, let alone a whole team. *yawn*, boring, basically. The equivalent of Star Trek Redshirts.

He has to part of the conspiracy. He's using words as an elegant Ninja Drop Bear ninja ball to redirect and subvert our attentions away from the true threat.
