Secret Handshake

I think I have a way to cut down on the friendly fire incidents.

Right now my reality is kinda stretched thin, so I need some way to know who is and who isn't Lazlo. I'm not the only one.

So I think we need a secret hand shake.

Or rather a sign and counter sign.

It needs to be simple, so let's use the American Sign Language Alphabet.

The sign is L for Lazlo

The countersign is S for Society.

I suggest we use this to identify each other.

Sounds good to me. Although we should change the Sign/Countersign monthly at least.

Agreed. But the vast majority of shapeshifters at least won't be reading this place.

Agreed, although its rarely the vast majority that we need to be careful of.

I know Fake Ron doesn't read this place. It should work.

He does, however, read our minds... :?

Yeah, hadn't thought about that...

It's a perfectly good plan for more more mundane shapeshifters though...

mundane shapeshifters... I believe I've invented the ultimate oxymoron.

Great idea setting this up.
If it works once, it's a good thing.

Remember the Pepsi kiosk in Baltikskaya Train Station in Petersburg, Kolya?

Welcome back, Holister ;)

Well, in that case, let's use Sign: P and Countersign K. Pepsi Kolya. Be sure to smack Ben on your way out for that idea.

by Shadowstalker
I second both ideas. :twisted:

Certainly one of those that are funnier if you were there. Ignore the hype... but here it is anyway.

Before St. Petersburg's 300 anniversary, the train station was in a hollow building with a dirt floor and no back (where the trains arrived and departed). There was a little Pepsi kiosk in the corner, and you could hardly the see the little girl sitting inside because the hole in the kiosk was so tiny. I would slide in rubles and a cup of Pepsi would emerge. It was ice cold - the only place in Russia I have had drinks so cold - and for some reason I felt it very refreshing. I drank at least a liter of Pepsi in 175 mililiter increments. ;)

For the anniversary they remodeled a bunch of the train and subway stations. Now instead of that little bit of peace on Earth there is a modern, spiffy cafe with coffee and bullshit like that. Where the kiosk was situation there are now toilets.

heh.

For those of you who do not know, my name 'Kolya' is pronounced almost exactly as the world 'cola'...

I kinda knew that, thats what makes it so funny. I used to date a Russian chick a few years back.

PS: I feel for ya man, they wanted to replace the Pepsi machine at the station, I threaten to shoot the delivery guy in the face with push pins if they tried.

I still have my Pepsi machine down in the break room. Who says reason doesn't work :D
