Okay. This is The thingite Armoury. It staraddles a Quatum-um-mum-um rift thingy that means that the shelves simultaniously hold all objects in the universe in this small brick hut. If you look for something - you will find it. Very useful, really.
As a development of this we procured a Research and Development team to ..er... research and develop stuff.
One day they took the coffee machine - we Thingites wanted back and a viscious land war broke out for a few eeks now we have a different time led assaults of the Coffee-maker, we even enlisted the aid of the anti cat league and right now we've pulled back and are taking to idly slaughtering R+D lackeys when they pop their heads round the door every once in a while.
LOOK OUT!
*Lances The R+D Assassin who has running towards EV.*
Close call.

Oh look, here you. go. One Titanium Spork.

Wel admitedly it's one of the joys of the thingite fora that anyone can jump in just about anywhere, and be just as confused as the rest of us.
but if you skip the backlog you'll miss the fun of how we got there.

I read *all* the backlog, and I'm still confused, so it's still fun!
