Talk:Acid blob
From TheKolWiki
is the miss message about No acidic goo for Hasidic Jews a refrence or just a rhyme? --Wurmsrus 07:33, 26 July 2007 (CDT)
It's just a rhyme, to my knowledge there is no other usage of the phrase. However, it is probably a very circuitous reference to the dietary restrictions of Hasidic Jews, who are basically a splinter sect of Orthodox Jews, that started in, I believe, the early 1800s or late 1700s. Anyway, they have over 600 'mitzvahs' or direct orders from Teh God aka YWHY aka G-d, orders ranging from 'dont eat pork' to 'men must wear peyes (the curled hair-braids). So it's probably a reference that you could almost say, "no ANYTHING for hasidic jews." Acidic Goo is just a clever rhyme. Maybe I'm over-analyzing, but, hope that answers your question, Wurmsrus. --Mr0t 14:50, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
"The attack messages "It etches you..." and "It tries to etch you..." are a reference to the children's toy Etch-A-Sketch, invented by Arthur Granjean in 1959. "
Would anyone object to me removing this? Considering that the monster is an acid blob, it seems a pretty big stretch to me to consider the messages a reference to Etch-A-Sketch rather than just the chemical process of etching. ShiroSirius 07:20, 25 June 2008 (CDT)
The sketchy at the end of each of those messages is a pretty strong reference to Etch-a-sketches, since sketches would be an odd word to use for the pictures produced by etching.--Supernova163 07:53, 25 June 2008 (CDT)
Seems there's a new item, "magic whistle". Image is the same as the large box.
This is a whistle that, when played properly, emits a sound only loyal animals can hear. When played improperly, it makes an ear-splitting screech that will make anyone in your vicinity immediately disloyal.
Type: ranged weapon (1-handed whistle)
Power: 85
Moxie Required: 27
Selling Price: 92 Meat.
Enchantment:
+4 to Monster Level
+1 to Familiar Weight
Could someone edit it please, as I don't have any skill. --Best22 01:13, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
