As soon as that zone shows up, the dare will go out to have people standing on the street corner in coolie hats and blue and red skirts, trying to summon storms and attempting to teleport off buildings.

Just remember folks, while I am never above poking fun at any culture (my own or others) we are in a multi-cultural environment, so remember how your post looks through babel-fish.
That being said, snails are excellent.

If you are using Latin in your post you are probably trolling

So, dog latin translation is... what... "... catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam"?
