As if one thread of these weren't punny enough! :D

Included, this time are "daffy-nitions".

What is a daffy-nition? It is a familiar word, but with a different
deffintion (or several).

Example:

Amethyst: 1) A cat known to run around its pet's apartment wanting his
attention. 2) Bubbac 2 Dragon's mother and Bubbac Sr.'s wife.
3)Hatchling boy dragon in the Great Siberian Cousins thread (A.K.A.:
Amthet)

Yachtzee: What a child, or another person, may say when they see this
type of boat.

Ketchup: What everyone tries to do when they are lagging behind.

Paradox: 2 doctors

Paramedics: 2 armed forces doctors

Grav Hur: What someone yells when they want a particular girl or woman
captured.

Pikachu: 1) What a doctor does to you during a physical. 2) What young
children play with others and some adults.

Please feel free to add your own. all are welcome

GMud: 1) What someone says after they relized they stepped in some. 2) A
MOO/MUD access that I just regained recently! :)

Am I on a Dragon Quest? Or am I being Chrono Crossed by Chrono Trigger
happy Wild Armed people?

I just got to know... What is the Secret of Mana?
Does the answer lie in the Legend of the Dragoons?

I throw my Gauntlet at the Darkest Faerie who seems to be in one of my
plot threads even as I type this.

One last question: Does Jax and Dexter's Ratchet Clank?

Question, Optition: What is your Soul Calibur? 2?
Are you on your Drakenguard while you cros the Star Ocean to find
Midway's 3 treasures? (I found the second one! :) )

Are your Mystic Heros Phantom Brave or full of Dragon Rage?

I'll beware of your Breath of Fire in the Dragon Quarter, Optition! :D

By the way.. Did you send your valentine a Kindom Heart?
If not.. You might be sent to the Gungrave. :D

You know, it just Boggles the mind how people Scrabble along in Life
trying to gain the Monopoly on everything.

Even the Shadow of Amn is chilled by Dale's Icewind 2 thousand leagues
from the Tormented Planescape.

Baldur's Gate 2 has had its problems at the Namco Museum and the Pinball
Hall of Fame.

Were the game allusions (?) a bit much? :^)

I apologise for that, I got carried away there. :$

"Yeah, you should be!" yells a familliar old(?) voice.

"Amthet!" The elder members of The Cast exclaim.

"It's true. Our typist should be carried away!" The Ancient Silver
Dragon grumbled "That mini-thread of mine hasn't been updated in 3 years
and he hasn't harped on that Paladin Dragon friend of his long enough to
get that other thread that I'm in going agin!"

***

Meanwhile, back in the barracks of The Cast HQ..

"I wonder what's keeping Uncle Jason and the others so long to get back,
Thomas." asks Sara.

"I don't know, cuz." he replies, "But if they don't come home soon, i
know some other children who may get a little restless and may want to
start partying."

Touche, Mssr. Cat! :)

However, Optician, you haven't answered any/ all of my questions that I
asked in the previous replies. <VBEG>

Please do.

BTW, My Mystic Heros, although they have Dragon Rage, are Phantom Brave.

Hey, Optitian, have you read any of the Radiata Stories?
They're good! ^_^

They may just raise your Soul Caliber 2 3! :-O

Tell me, please, Optitian... Was Baldur's Gate in the Shadow of Amn?
Or was it closer to Icewind Dale on those NeverWinter Nights?

You know... Due to an obsolete video card, I can not read the 3 Elder
Scrolls that where blown to the Tribunal by the Marrowind. :(

Sigh.

Hey! Did you know that there was a series score chart?
There is!

Final Fantsy XII / Dragon Quest VIII!

Of course (To be Punny :D) Dragon Quest VII 9 other series to get that
honor! (j/k)

More Daffy-nitions:

Magic: What a child, or some-one-else, may say about a magic-user: "Mag?
Ic!" (MAge Ick)

Bolder: Something that Ogres and Giants throw at you. (I know. It's an
intentional pun/wordplay on the synonym. :) )

Icewind: What at least 2 Dragon species Breath Weapons are.

Neverwinter: What it seems to be near the equator. :D

Pokemon: What I, or others may do to you in the Weyr when we want your
attention. FWIW, here too! :D
