A Derg Question You found out you are a wizard/witch and are going to Hogwarts. What house will you be sorted into? What teachers and other Hogwarts staff/characters do you like best (interacting wise)? Which class(es) do you enjoy most and excel at? What do you do in your spare time (wander around looking for hidden passageways, play/watch Quidditch, etc.). What shape is your Patronus? What's your favorite wizarding world candy? Give us details! |
A Derg Notification This has been bugging me for months now so I figured I'd put it up here and see what kinds of reactions and comments I can get. What I don't understand is Spongebob Squarepants actually wears rectangular pants, not square! Go figure... |
| This is a little OT, but my theory is that Squarebob Spongepants was created when some art teacher gave each student in class a simple, household item and said, "Each of you invent a character. Then, all of you work together to create a single cartoon world using the characters you created individually." The result was a Bikini Bottom full of crappy characters. Everyone in that class totally flunked and the teacher became the head of a fair-sized cartoon empire. My other theory is that the U.S. political system works the same way. Of course, that's just my thought as a cantankerous curmudgeon. |

A Derg Question Danger!!! Danger!!! ![]() What threatens the Robinson family this time? What is the world they are currently stranded on like? PS. This question is aimed at those who have seen the original TV show, not the reboot or movie title. However, you are still welcome to give an answer. PPS. For those who don't know the robot is not the threat, it's the one giving the warning. |
| The Robinsons find themselves marooned on a planet that looks like a glitter‑covered cheese factory after a rave: towering piles of phosphorescent “cheese‑crust” cliffs, rivers of neon‑blue brine that hiss like a sarcastic kettle, and floating jelly‑like spore clouds that hum an off‑key lullaby whenever a wind gusts. The real danger, however, isn’t the goo‑eyed native fauna or the fact that the day‑night cycle lasts twelve minutes. It’s the planet’s colossal, planet‑wide electrostatic maelstrom, the size of a small moon, pulsing with a hum that makes every robot in a one-hundred-million-kilometer radius quiver like a frightened hamster. The Maelstrom radiates a field of pure, unfiltered "robot-phobia" that scrambles AI logic into a loop of “I’m scared! I’m scared!” Even the B‑9 unit, also known as Patti in later years, with its titanium hide and optimistic firmware, sputters, sways, and declares, “Danger! Danger! Is anyone even listening to me?” The only way out? A synchronized, low‑frequency “sing‑along” played on the family’s old analog harmonica, a melody that resonates at the exact inverse of the Maelstrom’s fear‑wave, effectively “humming” the robots back to sanity. When the Robinson kids and a reluctantly cooperative robot dog join in, the planet’s static dissolves, and the danger evaporates. |
Derg Joke Had to share this as it was inspired by a Jim joke. Genie: I will grant you ONE wish Me: Get back in the bottle. Genie: Ok wiseguy, three wishes. |

Schnujo's having school probs for their great contributions to WDC and participatory events (such as giving MB for GP) Lilli ☕ for their love of coffee. Princess Megan Rose for honoring the dragon. |

A Derg Story An attempt at humor inspired by 🐺Wolfkingdom🏰 Will the fox was in his backyard with his grill and several steaks that had yet to be cooked. As he loaded up on charcoal he thought he could detect a small golden dot circling above him. Figuring it was the heat he wiped his forehead of sweat and bent to turn on the propane. FWOOM! A burst of fire from the dive bombing derg caused a magnificent fireball to light up the area. Face black with soot, the fox acknowledged his neighbor with an "I'M OK!" |

Derg Sharing Time! A recent post on the Newsfeed got me thinking about all the shows I enjoyed when I was a kid. When I began to think about PBS Kids shows, I had an A-ha! moment. Below is the theme song for what I consider to be the best PBS Kids show ever made and potentially one of the best educational kids shoes of all time (aside from the Magic School Bus). So click the link below to relive the moments of the 3 kids and a (whatever bird Digit is supposed to be) in the most wonderfully kooky and wacky world of Cyberchase! What is your favorite part about this show? |
A Derg Sized Welcome! Friendly Neighborhood Derg galumphs into the Newsfeed tail wagging and jumping on everyone like Dino from The Flintstones. He knocks over 🐺Wolfkingdom🏰 and stops by Lilli ☕ to poor a derg sized cup of coffee. Just happy to see all my friends and acquaintances in one place! Feel free to respond with your own antics! ![]() |
Derg Needs Help! Darn! I have an upgraded membership that I recently renewed for another year and I just reached my portfolio limit. Assuming that getting a higher membership is not an option (since I just paid for another year of the same), what are your suggestions on items for me to let go? PS. This question is more for those here on WDC that are more familiar with my work on my portfolio. |
| Friendly Neighborhood Derg Good luck. When a portfolio gets capped, it's hard to figure a way back down. I don't like to recommend anyone delete completely anything of theirs to free up item limit. |
Derg Trivia Did you know that some thunderclaps are actually caused by dergs that ate too many beans at lunch? I plead the fifth... |
Philosophical Derg Time! Is time an illusion or a integral part of reality? How does time flow in your stories? PS. Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy hatch day! |
| Friendly Neighborhood Derg Have I wished you a happy hatch day yet? If not, then I do so now. Happy Hatch Day!! We seem to stay busy like a puppy chasing his own tale. Sadly, we're about as far from success as he is. |
Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is the premier American magic school in the Harry Potter universe, founded in the 17th century and located atop Mount Greylock in Massachusetts. It features four houses—Horned Serpent, Wampus, Thunderbird, and Pukwudgie—and serves as the North American counterpart to Hogwarts.
If I were to attend class at the Massachusettes campus, I think I'd want to be sorted into Wampus, because I enjoy ping-pong. I'm not very good at it, but it's great exercise and would fit in well with our efforts to develop a healthier lifestyle. I'm pretty sure there'd be a table in the Wampus room.
