Ronda Rousey and the Atomic Armbar

Sitting in my hotel room in Perth, on the only day off I have on this tour, two days of events left and then I go home, and I'm smiling like a loon because I've just watched the Rousey vs Kaufman fight.

For those of you who have read KOTW, you may remember the mention of a certain Ronda Rousey and her now-legendary armbars.

THIS is the type of woman I want my nieces to be like when they grow up.


And now I must go. I have a lot of work to do on my day off...

And then a cow pooed on it. . .

Star Inkbright said...

*starts sobbing*

Jophiel said...

I guess I should have said that a bit later. . .

















Sorry?

Jophiel said...

Ink!?

Star Inkbright said...

*sniffs* YOU EVIL PERSON. *handcuffs Death to tree and fetch bucket of lava*

Jophiel said...

*Glares at the handcuff and it breaks*


You'll need some of those Billy-Ray shackles my dear

Star Inkbright said...

*throws bucket of lava at Death's head*

Jophiel said...

That don't work either sweetie. I'm immune, there are lots of little things that Demon Fire has taught me. . .

Jophiel said...

Nix! You were at the Melbourne Dymocks? I was there! Fluro orange sports girl bag! Hard to miss. . .

Star Inkbright said...

*throws bucket of melted marshmellows over Death's head*

Nixion Strange said...

Yet I missed it

Death, you know things are little fun when people just do whatever they want...

Jophiel said...

Thant smells funny Ink! What that just plain marshmallows? And what's up with the bucket?

Jophiel said...

What do you mean?

Nixion Strange said...

Never mind
*hums tune*

Nixion Strange said...

Okay... how do you start a wiki?
I'm thinking of starting a SP role playing Wiki

Star Inkbright said...

*smiles as the marshmellows harden and cement Death in place, like Dekka in Fear with the white clay stuff only without the bugs*

Helena Ember Sky said...

You create a wikia account.

Nixion Strange said...

I've done that
*rolls eyes*

Jophiel said...

This so ain't cool. Just wait till Eden sees this! Hopefully he wont die of laughter. . .

Helena Ember Sky said...

Then you click create wiki.

Nixion Strange said...

Changed my mind, not doing the SP RP. Not going to see how it'll work

Jophiel said...

Yeah, there's no point. Especially if you have harden marshmallows on your head after lava was poured on there!

Lynxia Lost said...

Morning Blogland! Might be a little distant, my internet is being slow...

Helena Ember Sky said...

*nods* Okay.

Jophiel said...

Hiya Lynxia

Jophiel said...

Are you hungry? I have harden marshmallows on my head. . .

Lynxia Lost said...

Nope, I have cookies!!!

*jump hugs Star* I haven't seen you in aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaageeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!!!

Helena Ember Sky said...

I started jumphugging on blogland... Didn't I?

Lynxia Lost said...

http://shadow--9.deviantart.com/#/d5cpcu8

Can you take a look at that and tell me what you think, please?

Star Inkbright said...

I know! First you were on holiday, then I was!

Lynxia Lost said...

No Hel, it's been here since I got on. Before then it started.

Lynxia Lost said...

Damn holidays... They only give me sun burn and no way to blog...

Helena Ember Sky said...

Well it hasn't been used for a while then. Anyway, where's Flame? You make me feel like jumphugging someone.

Eve the ROCK said...

I'm not leaving, Death. And you shall be punished for your crimes! *puts a curse upon Death*

Hi Lynxia!

Mayan said...

Hi! I am back but I also have to go now
*steals cookie*
Good night!
*hands out miniature edible pianos*

Lynxia Lost said...

Bye Romana!

Has anyone followed the link?

Nixion Strange said...

It's good Lynxia!

Jophiel said...

Lynxia! it is brilliant!

Eve the ROCK said...

I like the Requiem Ball thing, Lynxia :D Speaking of, are we still going through with ours? The weekend is BORING without something to do!

Helena Ember Sky said...

It's cool as Lynx!

Eve the ROCK said...

Bye Mary Jane!

Jophiel said...

Bya Maya!

Lynxia Lost said...

I think I might do Dexter Vex next...

Star Inkbright said...

*nods* Yup!

And, my holidays were awesome. But I wish I could of been here on them . . .

Nixion Strange said...

Be back soon

Jophiel said...

Yay! Dexter will LOVE that! He loves having eyes on him!



*Dexter Vex starts typing*

Oh, thanks dearie! That's really sweet. I hope you get my nose right, every one gets it wrong. . . It's kinda insulting.


Hey, do you guys want to know where Ghastly was with Francoise???
He can't kill me over here!

Lynxia Lost said...

Okay Nix!

Jophiel said...

See ya Nix!

Helena Ember Sky said...

Oh, the Francoise story. We never did get to hear the end... Please tell.

Star Inkbright said...

K Nix!

Lynxia Lost said...

... I'm gonna go make that Vex sim now, I'll upload a pic when he's done... He shall be wearing a tux, naturally! *skips away humming a funeral march happily*

Jophiel said...

*Elbows Dexter*

I said I wanted to hear it but you? You don't!



*Shudders and Dexter laughs*

Okay, he'll tell.

*Dexter takes over the keyboard while Death looks away*

Well, Ghastly Bespoke was a different man back then. What I am writing now is NOT under duress. He was always looking for THE ONE, and one day, a beautiful girl, about the age of twenty one (and looked a whole lot lit Tanith, but with less clothes) came up to him. Ghastly was drawn to her. Skulduggery and I just looked at each other. Ghastly followed her home and we couldn't find him.

Skulduggery and I both thought she was working for Melevolent. We requited everyone we could and stormed the towns nearby. Then we found Ghastly ant Francoise's place. . .


You can fill in the rest

Jophiel said...

I look lovely in a tux! Thanks!

Helena Ember Sky said...

*laughs* I love you Dex.
Less clothes? Haha.

Jophiel said...

Hey! DEX IS MINE!


*Starts glaring at the camera near me and it explode!*

Helena Ember Sky said...

I claimed him first.

Jophiel said...

That camera had the photo of Derek and me on it. . .

Jophiel said...

No, you didn't! We are together! Like girlfriend/boyfriend thing! HE IS MINE!



*Makes that little green thing off Lord of the Rings with the ring voice*
My precious!

Helena Ember Sky said...

Really? You don't know Gollum?!

Well I get all the Doctor Who and Sherlock characters as well as Ghastly, Frightening and Sanguine.

Eve the ROCK said...

*vision of Andrew Garfield as Hansard in the Skulduggery movie*

*sighs dreamily*

Nixion Strange said...

*chairmode activate*

Jophiel said...

Okay, I have Fletcher, Dexter Vex, Skulduggery Pleasant, Erskine Ravel - OMG HOTTIE! - Caelan and Varien Scapegrace!

Idiots are hotties! People with golden eyes are hotties! Skeletons are hotties! Vampires are sometimes hotties!

Have to have a shower now! BBS!

Helena Ember Sky said...

I WANT ERSKINE!!!!! You get Dex, I get Erskine.

Jophiel said...

Yes! Andrew Garfield as Handsard! Yes! Yes! Yes!

Jophiel said...

Not, I have Grand Mage!

You can have The Torment.



Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Ha!

Nixion Strange said...

You guys know that you're just thinking about fictional characters, right?

Jophiel said...

Shower time!

Helena Ember Sky said...

Ew no. I get Thrasher. He's good now.

Helena Ember Sky said...

Yes Nix, we know.

We ARE obssessed with fictional characters.

Nixion Strange said...

It's just slightly stupid

Nixion Strange said...

I'ma going to go
Bye!

Helena Ember Sky said...

It just shows how insane we are.

See you!

Flame Phoenix said...

Bulbs.

Helena Ember Sky said...

*screams* FLAME!!

*jumphugs massively*

Eve the ROCK said...

Bye Nix!

Well, I get Andrew. He's not a fictional character :) but for SP, I pick Solomon and Hansard :D

Eve the ROCK said...

Light bulbs, Flamereno!

Flame Phoenix said...

Hey Helena!

Hey Everano!

Star Inkbright said...

Fours, Nix! Hi, Flame!

Helena Ember Sky said...

*sits on Flames shoulders*

Flame Phoenix said...

Hey Inky!

Star Inkbright said...

*steals a lightbulb and buries it*

Jophiel said...

Hiya Flame!




*Hi5's flame and give him a hug!*

Star Inkbright said...

*is in shock*

Helena Ember Sky said...

*hisses* My Flame. You get Dex, I get Flame.

Flame Phoenix said...

Flame Phoenix said...

Helena Ember Sky said...

Jophiel said...

Flame Phoenix said...

*Pokes Helena*

Helena Ember Sky said...

*pokes Flame*

Helena Ember Sky said...

Did you want to tell me something Flame?

Flame Phoenix said...

How are you?

Helena Ember Sky said...

I'm okay. Very okay. I'm also very muchly.

*does a headstand on Flame's head*

Jophiel said...

I'm good!

Lynxia, have you finished Dexter Vex yet? He's growing impatient!

Eve the ROCK said...

I'm pretty goose, how are you Phoenix?

Eve the ROCK said...

Helena, no! Phoenix has....














LICE.


Dun dun DUUUUUUN!

Helena Ember Sky said...

*shrugs upside down*

Flame Phoenix said...

No I don't!

Star Inkbright said...

I dedicate this page to my eyes and my brain, for allowing me to see.

Humans see things better than some creatures do, and worse than some creatures, because our eyes are formed differently. Some creatures do not see at all. Out of yhe five senses, we humans rely on eyesight the most. I am right, aren't I? *looks anxious* We use our eyesight to works out where things are and how they look, and often we foeget that we aren't seeing the world as it is, we're seeing it how our brain and our eyes interpret it. We're seeing how much different particles reflect different types of light. I see that bookcase opposite me as an object, with empty space inbetween - but it isn't really empty space inbeween, it's just that my brains and eyes don't show me the air . . . Everything, everywhere, is particles. I just can't see it.

But I'm glad we don't see things how they are, if it's possible to see them how they are, because it couldn't be half so beautiful as some of the things we see in the world. Seeing isn't done with your eyes, it's done with your eyes AND your brain. My brain, amoungst other things, tells me how I feel about the things I see. Would I appreciate breathtaking views, amazing artwork, the differences in how people look, without my brain?

At the beginning, I said humans see things better than some creatures and worse than some. True in one sense, but it could be false in another . . . Cheetas apparently see better than humans. They have better vision. But do they appreciate what they are looking at more than we do? Do they look at a mountain and think "Wow, that looks amazing!" or do they just think "Bad hunting up there"? Maybe they appreciate seeing. Maybe not. If they don't . . . Then humans see things better, I think.

It's not just beautiful things. It's horrible things as well, and other things . . . But beauty is a nice thing to see, and it's what we like to see, even if in strange ways.

I don't know how to end this ded properly, so I think I'll just say THE END.

THE END.

Star Inkbright said...

Ooh. T'was a LONG ded, that.

Jophiel said...

Nice! love it!

Helena Ember Sky said...

*hugs Star* Nice.

Helena Ember Sky said...

*climbs back on Flame* *stands on shoulder*

Flame Phoenix said...

*is eating cereal*

Helena Ember Sky said...

*pokes Flame's cereal with bare foot*

Star Inkbright said...

Thankle youle.

Flame Phoenix said...

Thanks, Hel. All I needed was foot.

Jophiel said...

Where is Eden???


It's lonely without him!

Helena Ember Sky said...

You're welcome.
*somersaults onto other shoulder*

Flame Phoenix said...

How is it?

I'd rather he not come..

Helena Ember Sky said...

HE WHACKED ME ON THE HEAD WITH A SKATEBOARD!

Jophiel said...

In other words, I know him, but he dunt know me.

Jophiel said...

Flame Phoenix said...

He is not.

Helena Ember Sky said...

Blogland Requiem Ball. This Sunday. Be there or be circular. Tell everyone.

Flame Phoenix said...

Where abouts is it?

And Aussie time or Irish?

And what TIME?

Uilliam Kinsella said...

cool so the ball is on ill be there hi death

Flame Phoenix said...

*groan*

Eve the ROCK said...

Here.

It'll last as long as your Sunday lasts, the time zone you're in, the time zone I'm in, the time zone each different person is in, it's just as long as your own Sunday lasts.

It is simply a chance to wear dressed and tuxedos and suits and speak poshly and act like you're going to a ball. Because Sundays are boring.

Uilliam Kinsella said...

and of course im awesome and hel i got you a skateboard to make up for hitting you with one

Flame Phoenix said...

Eve the ROCK said...

Nice tux, Phoenix!

I guess we'll have our outfits as our profilian pictures on the day. So we know what people are wearing (so we can judge them!!!! Nah kidding)


I know there'll be a bad reaction....hopefully most of them will be good though. I mean, it's not the Blogland Awards, just a bit of fun :)

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Eve the ROCK said...

Hehe. Imagine we're planning everything for the Ball and getting all hypo about it and suddenly everyone else comes and says "NOPE. WE'RE NOT HAVING THE BALL."

:P Scary thought

Nixion Strange said...

Do you actually think we're having the ball?

Uilliam Kinsella said...

EVE SPOKE TO SOON AND NIX WHY WONT WE

Nixion Strange said...

Because, to be honest, I don't see how it would be different to any other day

*is in tux with champane with ballroom music*
Hmm? Someone could suddenly do whatever they want. What's the point of it?

Eve the ROCK said...

It's fun if we make it an official Blogland Ball.

Star Inkbright said...

But I LIKE my profile picture!

Uilliam Kinsella said...

ITS MIXING THINGS UP
I KNOW IM A NEWBIE BUT I READ THE COMMENTS FOR AGES AND WHY NOT JUST MIX IT UP WHY NOT HAVE FUN

Uilliam Kinsella said...

STAR YOU DONT HAVE TO AND ITS ONLY FOR A DAY IF YOU WANT TO

Nixion Strange said...

I just don't think it's going to work. Honestly, I think it's just going to be a horrible day

Uilliam Kinsella said...

YEAH MAKE IT OFFICIAL AND JUST HAVE FUN

Uilliam Kinsella said...

WELL WE NEVER SADI IT WOULD WORK WE ONLY SAID WE HOPE IT WILL WORK AND THAT ALL WE CAN DO HOPE ITLL BE FUN SO JUST COME WITH THE IDEA OF HAVING FUN IN YOUR HEAD

Nixion Strange said...

I'm entitled to my opinion
And I don't think it'll be fun. Sorry if this doesn't agree with you

Star Inkbright said...

I think we should havele it.

Eve the ROCK said...

Well, whatever Nix. You don't have to join in. But some of us think this will be fun, and we'll make sure it won't be a 'horrible day'

Eve the ROCK said...

Yay! Star's in! :D

Star Inkbright said...

Yes you are Nix, but not if it hurts someone else!!!! Have you thought that Eve might be offended by you dissing her idea?

Nixion Strange said...

One- it wasn't her idea
Two- I can name a dozen times your opinion has offended others

Uilliam Kinsella said...

well lets all just think what we want to think and say what we think within reason and not try to hurt peoples feelings and i for one am looking forard to the requiem ball

Star Inkbright said...

Why do people say people are 'in' in circumstances like these? In? In what? The stew?

*yelps* Argh! Hot gravy! *kicks a potato and climbs onto a carrot to escape the heat*

Uilliam Kinsella said...

actually if you looked back i suggested it since everyone was talking about dresses they couldnt get i thought why dont we do something so they can

Uilliam Kinsella said...

and then i thought of the requiem ball in the 6 book

Lynxia Lost said...

New post¬!!!

Eve the ROCK said...

You know, Nix, you could've just said you didn't want to be part of it. You didn't have to give resins why we shouldn't do it.

Nah, Eden, people thought of it before. But you brought it to our attention once again, thanks xD

Star Inkbright said...

*sinks back into the stew* I tend to forget bad moments, so I couldn't think of a whole dozen, but yeah . . . Now I feel like a hypocrite. Sorry.

Although, your opinion offends people a LOT, Nix. Usually when it happens, I keep silent, but I've already stomped on my silence this time so I think you should know.

Eve the ROCK said...

New post!!!
