You know, it's a good thing I already know what you're talking about with Crowley, Dee and Ozzy, otherwise I'd be wiki-wandering through that shit for days. :-P

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 12:07 AM edit delete reply

Aw, just a little wiki-walk can't hurt... :P

Aleister Crowley terotery is not a good sighn...

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 12:08 AM edit delete reply

Aw, what's wrong with Crowley? ;)

Dragonrider 16th Dec 2015, 12:15 AM edit delete reply

Aleister Crowley was notable for two things.
1. He self cured himself of Heroin addiction.
2. He was instrumental in the spread of the American Catholic Church. As opposed to the Roman Catholic Church in America.

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 12:19 AM edit delete reply

He was also kicked out of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn for being too sex-obsessed...

Dragonrider 16th Dec 2015, 12:38 AM edit delete reply

That only counts if you feel the Golden Dawn really means something. Almost all of us that are Family Trad. Really have little if any use for its members, or for Crowley.

Audacity 16th Dec 2015, 12:46 AM edit delete reply

Pardon my ignorance but Family Trad?

Seabiscuit 16th Dec 2015, 12:16 AM edit delete reply

Heh! Wow, she really knows her stuff! The nerd look isn't just a look, heheh.;)

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 12:19 AM edit delete reply

She works in a used book store. When she has free time, she doesn't, for example, play Sudoku... :)

argylefox 16th Dec 2015, 12:17 AM edit delete reply

Wasn't Crowley also a character from Good Omens?

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 12:20 AM edit delete reply

To my eternal shame, I have yet to read that... :(

(It's on my bucket list.)

Audacity 16th Dec 2015, 12:18 AM edit delete reply

Ahhh, those 80's colors on the booths there. They just make me want to . . . Relax. >;-)

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 12:20 AM edit delete reply

Don't do it... :P

Audacity 16th Dec 2015, 12:29 AM edit delete reply

Whaaaat? I wasn't doing anything. Honest! O:-) After all, girls just wanna have fun!

Audacity 16th Dec 2015, 12:24 AM edit delete reply

Yes! He was the demon! And thank you for reminding me of another book that I need to buy! :-)

Bah! What is my comment doing clear down here? Stupid gravity . . .

lirvilas 16th Dec 2015, 1:37 AM edit delete reply

Oh, here we go with the gorram super obscure references... you guys already had me read Lovecraft Wiki bio as well as one of his short stories... good grief I better be getting college credit for this. :)

@Audacity: "gravity" ha, that's good

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 1:53 AM edit delete reply

It could be worse. I could be handing out obscure references and NOT providing information...

Like, for instance, referencing Russian authors or something...

:P

ZING!!!

Matt Knab 16th Dec 2015, 4:56 AM edit delete reply

A wizard did it!

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 11:32 AM edit delete reply

A wizard ALWAYS did it! :)

Sheela 17th Dec 2015, 5:42 PM edit delete reply

That's what I always say when people think it was me !
But for some unfathomable reason, it never seems to work.
They must think us doggies are wicked, or something.

Professor Etheric 17th Dec 2015, 5:47 PM edit delete reply

Around here, we know it's CATS that are wicked. :)

Miaubol 16th Dec 2015, 9:23 AM edit delete reply

Aahhh Mr Charming ;)

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 11:33 AM edit delete reply

"Did you think you were pure?" :D

Stever 16th Dec 2015, 9:44 AM edit delete reply

I definitely remember that Ozzy song (but probably not much of the lyrics), but I guess I never really knew that he was a wizard.

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 11:35 AM edit delete reply

I knew the song before I really started getting into studying mystical and occult things. Then, when I DID start looking into it, mind: blown!

Audacity 16th Dec 2015, 9:51 AM edit delete reply

You know, I thought the whole point of the interweb was to for like-minded individuals to gather together and make really obscure Lovecraftian references . . . or something. God knows I rarely know what people are talking about on the net.
Doesn't stop me from 'weighing' in though.
@Lirvilas Did you see what I did there? Heeheeheehee!

pastutopia 16th Dec 2015, 1:42 PM edit delete reply

Haha reading the wikipedia articles it occurs to me I'm far more familiar with many fictionalized versions of historical figures than the real ones (gotta do better indexing on the brain...)...

Still, that sets a pretty high bar for intrigue and ancient conspiracy of where we are headed if we are hitting Crowley level already... :P

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 1:43 PM edit delete reply

Just as a warning, if the story is better than the fact, I tend to go with the story in my... er... stories.

Hold on to your hat (if you have one - if you don't, I would recommend getting one). We are going DEEP!

pastutopia 17th Dec 2015, 1:04 AM edit delete reply

Embellished history is best history! ;)

I'll see if I can get an appropriate hat. Maybe some tinfoil? Does that help where we going?! ;)

Professor Etheric 17th Dec 2015, 1:25 AM edit delete reply

A tinfoil hat is decidedly appropriate! :)

Today I am Papa Palpatine in a Robot Chicken world. That is all.

Professor Etheric 16th Dec 2015, 6:14 PM edit delete reply

What the heck are you on about?

Audacity 16th Dec 2015, 9:35 PM edit delete reply

Hahahaha, yes I suppose that does demand some clarification.
I mean that this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LowVhCfLm68 is how my day is going.

HeSerpenty 17th Dec 2015, 1:29 AM edit delete reply

Well what do ya know there those kids are... EATING AGAIN XDD

Aw man I wish I had friends I could go explore creepy tunnels with and eat and discuss mysterious things wiiith. I can't get any of my friends to throw away a bug let alone go in a creepy tunnel X)

Professor Etheric 17th Dec 2015, 1:34 AM edit delete reply

They're growing kids! :D

Ever since watching The Goonies and Scooby-Doo growing up, I have always thought it would be cool to do this kind of thing. Then I found out that urban exploration is a real thing, and filed it away for later use. "Later use" came with this run of Autumn Bay!

HeSerpenty 17th Dec 2015, 1:48 AM edit delete reply

Man that's so cool how it all worked together! It's really fun to watch <3

melaredblu 17th Dec 2015, 1:15 PM edit delete reply

Man, those three are hardcore pros at Obscure Reference Connect-the-Dots.

Professor Etheric 17th Dec 2015, 1:31 PM edit delete reply

That's like my favorite game! :)

(Seriously, that's a sizable portion of my world-building.)

AmeliaP 20th Nov 2017, 9:55 AM edit delete reply

Wow!!! Thank you for posting the links for those awesome urban -pop- culture (I have to say it's almost universal.).

Professor Etheric 20th Nov 2017, 12:35 PM edit delete reply

I like to help fill in the blanks in case my wonderful readers don't know what the heck we're on about. It's one of the strengths of posting online with author comments. :)

AmeliaP 22nd Nov 2017, 10:25 AM edit delete reply

Hmm, I should do that too o__o
