#monkey-island strikes back 07 Oct, 2007 / Comments: 5

By Gabez


This week's glorious MONKEY MEETING is well under way on #monkey-island (irc.gamesurge.net) but if you want to swim in the memories of last week's birthday chat, then by all means do so with a log of the event.

There's also a few peices of music that came to light last week. Here they are:

  • The MOST annoying midi ever (made by myself)
  • Monkey Island (and Remix ) - (Can anyone follow the lyrics to this? I can't understand a word - anyway, I believe Dingy made these and I definitely don't have permission to publish them, but ssh)
  • The Maniac Mansion TV theme! (And you thought you'd lost it forever)

    And the best for last:
  • The #monkey-island song by Darth_Phenom (Lyrics)

    Thanks to Zaarin for most of these songs!

    Highlights of the log include Spaff being a massive racist:

    [Spaff makes racist joke]
    [22:02] <+Magrat> wahay!
    [22:02] <@telarium> Wow.
    [22:02] <+Spaff|TF2> BAD TASTE COMES
    [22:02] <@Murray-Mint> Unexpected Racism!
    01[22:02] <+Gabez> Hee
    [22:02] <@telarium> Spaff is drunk again.

    And also all the jokes about marrying SarahS (the result of which is that I'm ostensibly married to her on Facebook)

    w00t


    Update: Thanks a lot to Zaarin for posting the lyrics of the Dingy song in the comments!

      Too bad we couldn't have had the Maniac Mansion TV theme years ago, so it could have been played on the victrola in Maniac Mansion Deluxe!

      I did find it before that game came out, I think. It was probably floating around quite a while before then, as well. Oh well!

      Huzzo: What's this mang?!
      LucasTones: this godawful theme is from the maniac mansion tv show :~
      LucasTones: it makes you cry
      Huzzo: Godawful theme? I'll probably like it :~
      Huzzo: Hee - BEST!
      LucasTones: ;
      Huzzo: Maniac Manshooooooooon!
      Huzzo: Who could REFUSE to watch a programme with a theme tune like this?! :~

      Teh lyrics from me head:

      I'm watching the stars fall silent from LEC
      All the things that we have seen
      They can't breath or even pull some strings for what's it worth
      There's new islands in the Caribbean called Lucre and Jambalaya

      I'm pushing pirates around in chairs
      I'm thinking up punchlines like "Do we care?"
      Over my shoulder a guy falls fast
      Crashing to the ground

      And all this talk of time, what's the time?
      Charles L. Charles is a real scumbag
      And that Australian land developer, what's he doing here at all?
      Where the heck is Elaine, can't explain

      I'm pushing pirates around in chairs
      I'm thinking up punchlines like "Do we care?"
      Over my shoulder a guy falls fast
      Crashing to the ground

      I'm breaking bones of arm-wrestling dudes
      They let me win when I tickle their chin
      I'm looking for the secret of Monkey Island

      Wanted cannibals, talking sculls
      Sweetest drinks of juice
      When I think of you
      Makes me worried too

      I'm pushing pirates around in chairs
      I'm thinking up punchlines like "Do we care?"
      Over my shoulder a guy falls fast
      Crashing to the ground

      I'm breaking bones of arm-wrestling dudes
      They let me win when I tickle their chin
      I'm looking for the secret of Monkey Island
      I'm looking for Elaine. Answers!

      I'm looking for Elaine Marley. Do you have the answers for EMI? BWAHAHAHA


      Dingy'll probably murderate me for this :(

      Haha, wow - I love the way he pronounces EMI ("Ee-my") and Lucre ("Lookry"). Great song!
