In the basement.

[Shinsei-J]

Oh I love pie. Chocolate creme is my favorite.
[sub]You are indeed a very wise man.[/sub]

I also like apple pie, warmed up in the microwave and topped with vanilla ice cream.

Mmm, I could completely go for a lemon meringue pie at any moment in my life.

[sub][sub]I hope I make it out of this thread alive.[/sub][/sub]

I've been here for 2 years nearly and still don't know what's in the basement.

I don't even know where the basement is.

I've been stood at the bar since I got here waiting for a drink but the service is bloody slow ... unless someone had to change the barrel in the basement.

Three years service and I only just heard about the basement.

 

[Rastien]

WHO MENTIONED THE BASEMENT!?!

Keep out of there.

 

[Hazy992]

Put it this way; if people don't ask about the basement then we don't have to lie...

People are better off not knowing *shudders*

 

[blackrave]

You know what is the most funny part?
There is nothing in the basement, except few spiders, burned lightbulbs and other people who felt inside.
At this point they are being scared by each other in the dark.
But they deserved it because only a fool ventures inside the basement without flashlight.

*steps in ... looks around ... leaves an old ornate key on a table ... sneaks back into the shadows*

On a side-note, screw the disc throwers, annoying buggers.

[Scorched_Cascade]

The Escapist Basement is the chlorine of the gene pool.

Only those stupid enough to even think about it are consumed, leaving the rest of us better off in the long run.

Us truly sane posters operate using a form of doublethink where we can answer questions about the basement while not thinking about the basement in anyway or accepting that the basement exists.

There are scary threads down there, stay out of the...whatever it was I was warning you against.

 

[Pinkamena]

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before; but the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token...

I'm trapped down here now, don't know how long it's been either. But looking on the bright side, the internet connection down here is better than it was at my home; even if IT is always watching to make sure we aren't plotting to escape its ever consuming maw, and sharp, bloodied claws.

*Pinkamena watches Iron Criterion from the neverending shadows*
Soon, Grue. Soon. You will have to be patient. I want him to feel safe first...

 

[The Artificially Prolonged]

All this basement talk is troubling, no good will come of it I say. Just think of the basement like the strange noises that you hear under your bed at night. Just pull the covers over you and everything will be fine.

I've been here for 2 years nearly and still don't know what's in the basement.

I don't even know where the basement is.

I've been stood at the bar since I got here waiting for a drink but the service is bloody slow ... unless someone had to change the barrel in the basement.

Yeah... the designers kind of dropped the ball with that one.

 

[xmbts]

Watch out for Max...

 

[Urgh76]

If you really wish to do so

Spoiler: This button shall lead you into the depths of the basement.

 

[IamQ]

Di-did you just mention... the basement?!

Why would you do such a thing?! I thought people had clearly stated when you join the escapist to never mention the basement!
