Apologies for dredging up this dinosaur, but what you described here are two examples of tropes:

Single biome planet, and Planet of the Hats.

Basically a planet that is labeled “Jungle,” “Ice,” “Rock,” “Water,” etc. is a single biome planet. Tatooine, Hoth, Felucia, Kamino, and Endor are (seemingly) examples of single biome planets.

@catwing  Heheh, excellent.

@rochellaine, thats hilarious. sounds like something I would do.

@seekjustice, @valtmy, @jenwriter17, @ariel-ashira, anyone around?

@jenwriter17, @catwing, @seekjustice, @ariel-ashira

anyone on? I’m drudging through Decisions trying to finish up part one

@epicaddie2  YES!!! We need more desperately, Addie. We are extremely meme-deprived around here. Thank you so much. X’D

@jenwriter17, I’ll be on in about an hour…probably

@seekjustice  @rochellaine  @ariel-ashira  @jenwriter17  @catwing

I think I’ll try my hand paw at writing. Anyone here?

@seekjustice Oof. That reminds me of when I lived on a sugar cane farm up around Cairns. It was an old, rickety, rural house that barely had radio signal and we’d swim in the creek nearby or stand right in front of the pedestal fan in our vain attempts to stay somewhat cool. Fortunately, I only had one sibling capable of getting in my way at the time.

@seekjustice Queenslander here, so we’re safe from the heatwave… for now. I’ve got a friend down in Canberra, so I’ve heard that it’s pretty rough there at the moment. I’ll certainly be praying for… well, most of Australia. I can’t even stay in my room during the day because my ceiling fan’s broken and it’s in the hottest part of the house.

@rochellaine Gotcha. An Australian version of Mary Poppins would be legendary, though. And I do indeed know of Ken Ham.

@seekjustice That is correct. P.L. Travers was born in Australia and moved to London to pursue writing.

I’m currently writing, though I’m a little late. Got guests over, so it’s been a little on-and-off since I need to avoid…[Read more]

@rochellaine I know I’m just being nitpicky, but tECHNICALLy, “bloke” is a British word. I mean, it makes sense that our Australian slang originated in England: bloke, mate, chockablock, “bloody” before every second word, etc.

I just looked up some other slang and wow… I didn’t realise the word “dodgy” isn’t really a thing in America. Although,…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Ooh, that sounds cool. Do you own a horse yourself? I’ve actually been getting back into photography lately. It’s always fun to experiment with different techniques.

I guess I’m most looking forward to the amount of freedom I’ll get in comparison to school. And as someone who struggled to make friends in the school system, I’m hoping…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hello! Your name seems pretty familiar, but it’s always a pleasure to see another of our kind on the interwebs. 😛

@rochellaine And that is very true. During my online life, I’ve found a lot of differences in my writing from most others. Stuff like the spelling of kerb and curb, then words that are completely different, like…[Read more]

@seekjustice As a fellow Aussie, I am a tad concerned to hear that you drive on the right side of the road.

Well, I guess I’d appreciate some prayer towards getting employed. I’m gonna be spending a lot on commuting this year and sorta need an income.

@dekreel Nah, it was very intentional. And yes, I know the feeling of compiling lists of people’s types. It’s a great feeling when your guesses prove to be correct.

@rochellaine Hi! Yeah, I noticed that it’s a lot quieter since I was last here.

And yes, I am indeed. I happen to be one of those rare internet-dwelling Australians. XD
