Jade is getting more subtle in her courtship* of Lisa...or is she? Let's speculate!

I chose the "list of miscellaneous objects" option. I'm a darned fool for some miscellaneous-object lists.

I had to go with the "I.Q." option. Just because.

I like the cold fusion joke. I love those kinds of jokes.

"Cross the Altantic Ocean"?

Bet that's the nickname of a little pond somewhere on campus, which Lisa is supposed to realize only on very careful reading.

Yeah, I know, probably just an unintentional typo on Alice's part. I still like my theory better.

Okay, so my suspicion (and vote) is that it falls along the lines of the last one, because Jade. However, if she wanted to be successful in her overtures, I would totes vote for the Sestina Impossible--Lisa would totally be into a challenge like that.

I couldn't resist...


Particle alpha hammered from mighty Thorium
Soars over scenes of wicked flense
Through quantum tunnel, escape force storgic
Escape! Even treacly grasp of Nutella
Escape! Inquisitor transforms converso
Escape! Through eyelet, little aglet


Soaring still is alpha aglet
Behind it fades thunderous Thorium
Weak is alpha as weak was converso
Wander! Flee cruel knives of flense
Wander! Dream of warm bath Nutella
Wander! Rest alpha, with friends storgic

Weary alpha seeks love storgic
Strengthened is little aglet
Knead and fed, love and Nutella
Justice! From father Thorium
Justice! Blubber not of flense
Justice! Alpha, save converso

Watched always is friend converso
Fie danger cries lover storgic
For alpha the knives will flense
Courage! Of mettle is wrought aglet
Courage! Decay claims Father Thorium
Courage! Warrior sail the sea Nutella

Toast coracle, sea Nutella
Drifting toward friend converso
Anger radiates from Father Thorium
Soldier! Thoughts of home, of lover storgic
Soldier! on does alpha aglet
Soldier! breach the blades of flense

Alpha, sharper of blade flense
Enemies eating toast, spitting Nutella
Shining slicing metal aglet
Victory! Breaks chain of converso
Victory! Fierce joy claims lover storgic
Victory! Beaten tarnished Thorium


Jewry, jewelry, Aglet, three things of beauty cries Converso
Broken blades of flense, mourned by whales adrift sea Nutella
BEHIND YOU cries lover storgic, FISSION HIM and no more is Thorium!

I went with the last one. . .lots of licks are needed, I think :p

How many licks does it take to get to the centre of [censored]?


Now that we've seen Ronnie has an internal censor and if we consider that he's overweight, this option gets really weird.
