The Recreation Commons : third floor.

Maniac · November 24, 2002, 14:37

Due to overwhelming succes the Peacekeeper government has decided to construct a recreation commons at every base, and expand the current one near New Apolyton Government Palace. More precisely they installed a Hologram Theatre on our new third floor. In short: more place, new urinoirs and better beer! Have fun!

New suggestions for booze are always welcome.

The current list of beverages is:

Beer

Heineken (cryo-cooled!)
Leffe (the best)
Velkopopovicky Beer (Czech beer)
New Caledonian Beer (For those who support CCCP!)

Xeno Inc. (tm) (c)

Xenobrew (Support ~~TKG's monopolistic ambitions~~ the Research Department!)
Xenocoffee - with xenomilk and synth0sugar
Xenococoa
XenoBanana Split (Support Mr. Xenobanana's election campaign!)

Wine list

Red Sol de Mesa (Wine out of the good sunny Mesa fungus - tastes fine with the sealurk - will become available after we've discovered that place )
White Yugo de Suelo Pholussia (A wine I can´t recommend completely; a little too sweet)
Doceagua (From the nearby Freshwater Sea)

Non-alcoholic beverages

Wild Cherry Pepsi
Water (Expensive! Our water recycling technics aren't perfected yet. I'd suggest a nice beer instead...)
P4PSI (For old times' sake. Enlightens your mind.)
Orange Juice
Longisland-icetea

Cocktails

Chiron-Redberry-Cocktail
Hive Mind Stuff (with honey)
Muroroa (makes you glow)
Bloody Miriam
Black Stuff (High quality label - we are not responsible for its content)
Kalimotxo (two thirds of Red Sol de Mesa, one third of P4PSI)

Other

Fungal Gin (A real killer!)
Talisker Whisky (Deirdre's treat)
Jack Daniels Blue Label (0.15 ec per bottle)
Salmiakkikossu (Salted licorice)

We have been thinking about serving warm meals. Handy for workers with a late shift:

Chopped Psych Worms with Lurk-Blood Sauce
Lurkroast with Monsoon-Salad
Fungus Tower Schnitzel with deep-fried worms
Pickled Spores

yay! first one through the door! what do i win?

and what film will they be showing today?

Maniac · November 24, 2002, 16:09

You win... tatarataa... a full month of free Xenobrews, offered to you by Xeno Inc.!!!!
Aren't you happy?

Tonight we will be showing "Deirdre's Lover", directed by Pandemoniak. I really recommend it. It uses the brandnew 3DHoloVision technology, which provides much better action scenes.

"Deirdre's Lover"... I downloaded that off the datalinks weeks ago.

Maniac · November 24, 2002, 18:57

What!?! Illegal versions already??

I'll have to warn Pandemoniak right away.

Mr. President · November 24, 2002, 22:12

Shame on you, Voltaire!

I'm gonna pay for a ticket like everyone else.

Aaron Blackwell · November 25, 2002, 10:57

:Read the menu:

What ?!!!

No Xenobanana split ??

FlameFlash · November 25, 2002, 13:27

/me tries a Chiron-Redberry-Cocktail and ponders the current state of affairs...

Anything to gripe about currently?

Pandemoniak · November 25, 2002, 13:50

Voltaire, I'll see you at the courthouse.

Gimme a three floors of Talisker to celebrate, though.

Pandemoniak I thought you of all people would, in the spirit of communism, let all the people of Planet share in this work of art free of charge to inspire the people to rise up against capitalist oppression and overthrow the bourgeoisie pigs in a glorious communist revolution.

Pandemoniak · November 25, 2002, 14:37

Indeed. But you need to have the party's card to be able to see it before its released. What you did, downloading it before its "première", is simply industrial spying.

FlameFlash · November 25, 2002, 15:02

Ah... and the true show begins...

But isn’t that being elitist?

Only “party” members get special privileges, while the rest of us are less equal in that we don’t get the same privilege as the party members. I see a shift towards Stalinism here in CCCP policy.

Maniac · November 25, 2002, 17:25

A triple Talisker for our star guest Pandemoniak.

Method · November 25, 2002, 18:12

/me orders a xenobanana split.

BTW aaron, Xenobrew Inc. has copyright on any food product starting with "xeno" (except plain old xenobanana of course

) so i suggest you rename your product before this gets nasty. i have lots of lawyers. good ones

Maniac · November 25, 2002, 18:28

I thought it was "Xeno Inc."

I'll have to adapt my menu...

Anyway, can anyway think of some other SMAC-like icecream names??

Voltaire · November 25, 2002, 19:11

What a long day.

I’ll have a Xenocoffee with ½ fat xenomilk and 3 spoons of synth0sugar.

Maniac · November 25, 2002, 19:36

For Xenocoffee I have installed an automat. I like to make it easy for myself.

DeathByTheSword · November 26, 2002, 08:12

yes thirth floor the second floor was getting overrun by the green slimy thinks.....he.....where did all the schoolgirls go too?

DeathByTheSword · November 26, 2002, 09:21

how i love the new banner with that bear on it!

/me isnt looking at the bear one bit...but that is another story!

Hercules · November 27, 2002, 18:03

Hercules calls into see the third floor. Spys Juke box in the corner

" I 'll have my usual, my good fellow". The Black Stuff.

The juke box is surprisingly empty and it can easily hold 1000 recordings

"I'll donate five from my collection" said Hercules

A Hard Day on the Planet - Louden Wainwright III
Across The Universe - The Beatles
Space Oddity - David Bowie
The Planets Suite - Holst
The Day of the Locusts* - Bob Dylan

Enjoy! donations welcome but no more than 5 to start with.
Maybe I should open the Planet Juke Box Thread

* Believe it ot not this is in the lyrics

Quote:

......Yeah, the locusts sang and they were singing for me. I glanced into the chamber where the judges were talking,
Darkness was everywhere,........

Scarey or what

That Darkness gets around

Maniac · November 27, 2002, 18:10

Oh no, judge DE is in control of the native life!

Now we know who caused the

uprisal!

Method · November 27, 2002, 18:12

we have a jukebox? neato. the rec commons is *the* place to be now, what with the bar, theatre and jukebox

Lemmy · November 27, 2002, 18:20

I found an interesting specimen of those bouncing thingies near TKG's lab (not that i'm implying anything

), here it is:

I had some trouble picking it up, it can get quite hot, maybe we can send some of them in Yang's general direction?

Method · November 27, 2002, 18:26

gah! my guhtelfitrickbers must have breeded with my fire-breathing, two-headed xenolemurs

oh well, it's adam's problem now

Drogue · November 27, 2002, 18:27

Bartender, over here... I'll have a Xenobrew, with a jigger of the ol' Black Stuff in the centre, and a sprinkle Salmiakkikossu on the top

And if I'm elected, drinks are on me

Not that I'm trying to pressurise people.... not at all

Adam's problem? Weren't you staying in the basement of the research complex?
