I'm going to see if I can't grab a shower in the 20 minutes before we start. that means however the chips fall, the next time we exchange words, I might be just wearing a towel. <@warpus> i took mine like an hour ago, i thought we were supposed to be <@spinsane> i also have to shower + shave, i even though he has a head start however my cat's trying to get me to give him yogurt <@warpus> sounds like your cat is trying to submit words already <@warpus> we will be explaining the formalities of all this as soon as cthulu is cleansed <@Cth_Mist> clean <@warpus> welcome to the clean gang <Cth_Mist> mostly we deal with money laundering  <Cth_Mist> OK, so it's time!

That old cliche? Hopefully this doesn't become a hallowed Blender tradition. It took some doing, but eventually we came up with some worthwhile Blender words: <@spinsane> ./msg warpus melfarr / fisting himself / bus bench <+melfarr> that would be great i could just literally do that and take a picture of myself <@Cth_Mist> I feel so sorry for the homeless people who sleep on that bench I already did feel sorry for them, but this is really icing the cake <@warpus> no homeless people sleep on that bench due to the mfs bench fisting homeless sleeping prevention system <Cth_Mist> We don't have our words yet! We have some We are mulling over the list of word suggestions we have received so if you think you might want to suggest topics and haven't yet done so please contact warpus or myself in, say, the next four minutes. * Cth_Mist turns over an egg timer * TooCool watches the sand flow steady the the the four minute glass. <Cth_Mist> uh oh, it's been four minutes we might see a topic announced in, say, 3 minutes <+melfarr> i might have my dick announced in, say, 3 minutes <Cth_Mist> I know I said 3 minutes but the deliberation continues for, say, another three minutes, so as to provide the best topics possible go cook another egg or whatever mfs is serving for lunch there did I say 3 minutes? let's try 4 more you can all see yourselves growing older here maybe I should plant some grass seed and you can watch it grow while we debate the best possible words <@spinsane> this is nothing more than some cruel nazi experiment at this <@warpus> der blender <Cth_Mist> what does a benevolent nazi experiment look like? <@spinsane> benevolent nazi experiment? great question. i assume it involves  vegetarian superfoods for german shepherds  don't look too closely into the resulting paperwork though <Cth_Mist> OK, are you ready now? ready to Blumble? I think we have our words all right, here go the words: from Transylvania.... he vants to sock your blawd, bleh-bleh bleh! VAMPIRE Warpus, what's the vamp doing? <@warpus> he is doing what all vampires excel at, MIXING DRINKS <Cth_Mist> yes, the thirst-quenching activity for which all children of the where is this activity taking place? Dive, dive! It's in, or near, or somehow related to... a  SUBMARINE!  Once again, for the latecomers or the easily distracted: the words for this Blender are VAMPIRE / MIXING DRINKS / SUBMARINE  <supercargo> I don't know why, because submarine is the only matching term, but this immediately made me think of the scene in Guy Maddin's Forbidden Room in which the sailors trapped in a submarine, running out of air, realize they can survive if they suck the bubbles out of their pancakes. I guess vampire -> sucking, and mixing drinks -> consumables -> pancakes.  ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß °°ÛÛÛ°°Ûe x c u s e s , e x c u s e s . . .

The word selection really did take too long, but that could be ameliorated in future if people would suggest more good words. Duh! Not just better words, but a higher quantity of quality topics. I know, in this world, when do you get to choose both quantity AND quality? But the Blender is uncompromising! Congrats to our winners! Lazarus deftly skips past CiA in the rankings, while Blocktronics springs forward several steps, edging in on Fire's territory. Meanwhile, Smooth joins the list of Blender participants as number one with a bullet, as Mel Farr Suppastar finally surpasses Warpus once and for all in total Blenders participated in! The next Blender is officially in January, but the odds are pretty decent that we may spring an impromptu one on you in Discord over the winter holidays.
