September is Balrog Bashing Month!

September is Balrog Bashing Month, because the most vile, twisted piece of trash of them all has his birthday this month!


Firstly... please once again be reassured, that you are not racist for hating Balrog. One of my own schoolmates (who herself, is a Christmas fan and a gamer just like me!) married a lovely black man, and has two beautiful sons with him... and she had to reassure me, adding that some peeps are known to pull the 'race' card. So don't let some idiot say you're racist, just because you hate Balrog - hell, I myself have played as one or two black characters in games, most of all my first animated crush !


Mod Soul, I remember you saying you were initially a Balrog fan, because you like strong black men... but you are aware of Street Fighter X Tekken, so, well, yeah. I think I heard Dee Jay has been leaked for Street Fighter 6;
and I admit I did consider shipping you with him or Dudley, in my fics.


As well as how this year will be six years since my family lost Grandpa Ken (September 29 1924 - September 14 2016), in turn concluding when the Rainbow Bridge airing security became official in my family... it will also be three years, since I created the Street Fighter baby rule. A handful of airings in Balrog Bashing Month 2019 did, indeed, force my family to carry out the Rainbow Bridge security for my cat Mel (March 3 2012 - September 6 2019)... but also because of the airings, in a snap decision I felt that our new bundle of joy must be named after a Capcom character. Enter my ginger tom Thunder Vergil Farrell - who would end up having his 'operation', on the three-year anniversary of my revenge on Carie!

I am looking forward to more Street Fighter fun!

Well, you Damme well got your wish, Alexis

**********************

However, yes we are on full alert, with the news about the Queen. Please pray for her...


I have informed Gran and my parents, yes we will carry out the Rainbow Bridge security if it comes to that...

Update: I have received the sad news just now... RIP Queen Elizabeth II... :bowsercry:

Very sad. Rest in peace beloved queen

Thank you very, very much Miss Biyomon. That means a lot to me, and to the rest of the UK.


Yes, initially one may think 'serious concerns for the Queen's health' sounds like a fever or something, and I thought that somewhat too - but with the Royal Family cancelling engagements and travelling to Balmoral, I had a bad feeling that Operation London Bridge (or in this case, Operation Unicorn) was now very certain. Of course, I had to alert my family, yes especially in case we need to keep an eye on the Queen later this month... but when I phoned Gran, even she felt that it wouldn't be too long now, what with the Royal Family gathering at Balmoral.

Sadly... Gran was all too correct, as we lost the Queen this afternoon. Aye, I too sang the National Anthem a few times over, at this sad time.

Some people -even the media- have also noted about a double rainbow over Buckingham Palace, literally just minutes before the sad announcement was made... some even suggesting that the double rainbow could represent the Queen and Prince Phillip, like the Queen giving her final bow to her people;
as well as another single rainbow over Windsor Castle, after the announcement was made. Okay, so it has been raining today - but this is another occasion, when rainbows have reportedly appeared at times of mourning...


I do realise, there's a strong chance that it could be a closed casket funeral, so you know what that means for us - so as I had with Prince Phillip last year, I will have Cammy do the honours, as this is for a British royal (hence my profile and Facebook edits).

This is very sad even though I don't follow or care for the royals

Thank you very much Quincy, that is very sweet of you

I myself am a royal-watcher, I have met the Queen and Princess Diana...

Rest in peace. She was the longest serving Queen

Rest in peace

Thank you both very, very much 0:-) . I did know youse guys may be asking me about this and offering condolences, so yes please use this thread to do so.


And the funeral has been confirmed for September 19, again there's a strong chance of it being closed casket so prepare to bash Balrog if needed.

Yes - I think Queen Victoria held the previous record?

However, there have been some twisted assholes who chanted "
Lizzy's in a box!"
at a soccer match. Shame on them - how about they die and people say the same thing about them, and see how they like it??

****************

and I can tell you, I found my missing copy of Gauntlet: Dark Legacy - I dropped it by a secret passage of sorts, at the end of my street. The game works... but the disc is a little bit suspect, so it's just as well I took the EBay plunge just to be safe...

I was so sadden about the news of the queen passing.

The Queen was the best royal. Rest in peace

Mew

Thank you both, ladies 0:-)

Awww, you really think so? I think she would be touched...

Oh, did you see the clip of her having afternoon tea with Paddington bear, for the Jubilee? I thought that was sweet...

There should be a day off in all countries to mourn

Awww, that's sweet of you Biyomon. Well, the day of the funeral will be what we British call a 'bank holiday', so yes it will be a day off...

Altaria

And bearing in mind, that my nation's new king is Charles III... please be reassured, that you will not land yourself in deep trouble for playing any of the Viewtiful Joe games. I had to alert my dad, about a Viewtiful Joe antagonist character named Charles the Third (who is a bat)... so he had to reassure me, that no I would not be in trouble! Even if this is a fictional character we're talking about... I had to ask, just to be sure...

There could be changes with the Queen gone. The others aren't as well known or liked

My biggest question on that is, who will take over with the Remembrance Sunday memorials at the cenotaph?

*****************

And I am aware of Ken, Blanka, E Honda and Dhalsim being confirmed for Street Fighter 6. We all know I will wear my Ken badges and my Chun Li one for the airings, but yes I will wear the Blanka, E Honda and Dhalsim ones too.


I cannot guarantee, though, if any of them will get a mention for the Street Fighter mandate - it all depends on what I snap up in my special month. I would love to get a Blanka Chan, though...

But "
Of COURSE!"
, there is but one thing which would guarantee their mention! Let's hope it happens, right?

So many people all over the world and mourning. This is so sad

Very sad indeed. Who else here is a royal-watcher?


But for anyone who is interested, you can even get used wristbands (i.e. for seeing the Queen lying in state) on EBay - people are selling them, and the prices/bids are reaching four-figure sums!

If you ask me... then rather than the seller keeping the money for themselves, how about donating it to the Royal Family?

There where never be a royal as great as the queen. It is very sad to watch the funeral services on tv
