[quoteost_uid0="Kira"][color=#000000ost_uid0]I find it funny how many people attribute the "loser who practially lives on the internet and makes bad math jokes" line to themselves. However, that's not a cameo[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]Aww. spluck. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]GAHHHHHH![/colorost_uid0]

[quoteost_uid0="NAHTMMM"][color=#000000ost_uid0]Part One: the one the other Zeke came from[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]Well, I don't think they actually traveled there...

Yeah, I remember Cele's name being Baron back when in the old forum, we were talking about titles (King, Duke, Viceroy, etc.) and PHJ brought up Baron and Cele clung to that one with an explanation.[/colorost_uid0]

[NAHTMMM]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I think I remember that too, Sax. Wasn't her claim based on ancestry or [uost_uid0]something[/uost_uid0] involving her last name?

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Baron [iost_uid0]is[/iost_uid0] her last name [/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I think I'm gonna give up right now, 'cos frankly I don't stand a chance.[/colorost_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I gave up a long time ago.

And for what it's worth, my ancestors were barons, or at least people with my last name were.

I think.[/colorost_uid0]

[Celeste]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Yes yes, my last name is Baron. har dee har har. :P But my family is anything but royal. Farmers and factory workers from Canaduh we are. PHJ I'm glad you think that i'm from nobilty. [/colorost_uid0]

[Nan]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I actually kind of am from nobility.

The Blawdzewicz (don't try to pronounce it) family has a coat of arms and everything.

Damn Nazis, Germans, Russians, Austro-Hungarians, etc.

BTW, it's pronounced ah-KEE-lee. Not ACK-ah-LAI.[/colorost_uid0]

[ijdgaf]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Anyway, it would've been "A[bost_uid0]l[/bost_uid0]kali" if I was referencing the science term [/colorost_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]The cameo in Part 5 is so obvious even I can get it.[/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]The Blawdzewicz (don't try to pronounce it) family has a coat of arms and everything.[/quoteost_uid0]

So does the Harty family for that matter.

No Barons? Oh well. The best we can probably hope for is a Viscount then.[/colorost_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]No Barons? Oh well. The best we can probably hope for is a Viscount then.[/quoteost_uid0]

I can possibly offer you an Earl or a Prince (although the Prince is under the Irish nobility system, which simply called everyone King).

The Maguires were just a step below the provincial kings (Ulster, Munster, etc) and two steps below the High Kingd (Ard-righ). They were tribal kings, and were lords over several clans. Fermanagh was their playground.[/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]A bit like Dwarvish Kings then?[/colorost_uid0]

[Celeste]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]My boyfriend has a coat of arms and all that kind of cool stuff. He also has a nice fluffy trust fund. [/colorost_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]A bit like Dwarvish Kings then?[/quoteost_uid0]

Well, they had shorter lifespans, less impressive bears and didn't sing songs about gold.

When the English came *pause for vitriolic cursing* the toadies among the Gaelic nobility got English titles, and the patriots (read: traditional rivals of the toadies) got exiled.[/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]and didn't sing songs about gold.[/quoteost_uid0]

No. Just potatoes and beer.

Well, they had...less impressive bears...[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]And [iost_uid0]what[/iost_uid0] does Beorn have to do with this?[/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Lol. I think he might have meant beards. At least I hope he meant beards.[/colorost_uid0]

[Sa'ar Chasm]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]*prolonged snickering*

Oh, that's embearassing. Â I blame the keyboard I'm using here at "work".[/colorost_uid0]
