I couldn't do that. Not creative enough. I can work my imagination if I'm given guidelines (my fanfic is mixing real life tech with ME sci-fi stuff) - it can work miracles.

 

But it can't create from scratch.

 

I've got three months. The project will have us research into contextual stuff, going back decades and looking into now. It's going to have us looking at every little tiny fecking aspect there is like we're detectives looking for a criminal.

 

I can do it. Just when I know everything there is to know. Which I don't right now.

[Serza]

You've time, then.

 

Best of luck!

Just got a brief where I have to "Create a new-to-world, accessible, mass-market beauty brand that breaks established category codes." Essentially meaning, create a beauty brand that does not have any reference to gender stereotypes. *sigh* No idea where to start... Next week. I'll start thinking about it next week. Not now. No fecking way am I thinking about it now.

So you'll be a beauty expert in three months?
That is a little bit scary

[Serza]

Don't worry. I'm sure you'll remain the most beautiful Elf here to him.

That sounds tedious. And lame.

Tedious, yes. Lame, not really. Well, I don't think so. This is a live brief, meaning someone is after this. It's hosted by the D&AD, which is the huge creative design thing that is like, worshipped by every worth his salt designer in the UK. This is a real thing and, whoever wins, stands a chance at redefining how beauty is represented within advertising and branding, the world over. No more anorexic person in skinny jeans saying "This is what you should look like!" Well, no, that's not going to go. Not for many, many years but this would be a start. I think it's actually somewhat exciting. If I win, that could be my name down in history.

I see. Well, I will refrain from any further Smartarse comment and wish you luck instead

I'm a very bad example because I am hard to advertise. To me ads are always fake, annoying and not worth my time. I'm one of those mouth propaganda type of people. If persons around me tell me a product is good, that's when I give it a try.

But I remember that Dove started a campaign like that years ago. No skinny jeans, but mostly real women.

[Serza]

Well, I was about to say something, but I'm not.

 

Instead, hey, good chance. Good luck.

 

Note: Not gonna say it because my short-term memory failed me horribly. I can't remember!

[Al Foley]

PErsonally I think that's a hell of a bird.

Actually, you did just say something.

[Lynroy: Final Edition]

Are you sure it's a bird? Looks like a raccoon with rabies to me.

Gimme the rocket launcher!

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure I typed that.

If you want to be technical about it.

[Lynroy: Final Edition]

I don't know where it is!

[Serza]

Damn right I want to be technical about it. I had to be technical about technical issues and technology for whole four years!

Attempting to give a damn. Please wait...

[Serza]

Right here. AT4. Sights are flipped up, but you better hit. This baby's an 84mm single-shot disposable anti-tank shaped charge-based rocket launcher. Yes, it has a HEAT warhead. Which reminds me, do try to hit with it, these things aren't cheap.

Wait, you're trying? The legends lie, I succeed.

[ravenesse]

The rocket launcher is missing!

I am sure that could get through an impenetrable wall easier then a bird. 

[Serza]

Roy already lost it?

 

No more AT4s for you guys.

You're a robot? Don't worry. I'm a repairman.

 

Can't post that with a straight face, if you're wondering...
