New NBR video! Following the Drugs!! - NBR InvestigatesWatch it on YouTubeDescription:I followed the trail of drugs and bodies. It was an eventful day!! A must watch! Nikki offers an explanation for the senseless public videos, breaks and enters into a warehouse with lemniscate symbol boxes and finds modafinil in one of them. And there's more! With OpAphid out of the picture, it looks like the Creators are relying a little more on Nikki to patch up some holes. I <3 you Nikki!

The return of the lemniscate!! At least the Modafinil is a handy tie between NikkiB and LG15. I think the real tips we must further investigate here are: - Nikki was a mime in the past
- a Bible and a bunny were found mingling together in the drughound's hotelroom
- Is "ointment" truly the worst word in the English language? What about "moist"?

This episode was so in depth- and the explanation sure looks pretty airtight (as in won't get contradicted by anything in the series). She's clearly getting help from the inside on this, obviously none of that "oh we know her but she's pure fanfic!" bs. Also Nikki seemed might convinced about her own explanation of "The Order doesn't watch her videos so she's safe!" All they had to do was classify these latest episodes as "private" to remove all doubt, but no, we need a secret informant from within the Order... to tell us that the Order doesn't watch the videos... ok..!

Nikki's assertion that OpAphid, Tach & Bro were "gone" is, I guess, a way for the c's to communicate that the game is def over. (See their post at the Glenn is gone thread). While I have to admit that I'm glad this whole OpAphid ARG silliness is over and done with, storywise I dislike that they are all just *gone*. What? Bree suddenly forgot Tachyon saved her ass? Oppy decided to meet up with the Cowboy and ride into the horizon, never to care about the Ceremony again? And conveniently, this now prevents the Order from seeing her videos. They aren't one bit concerned that an entire ARM of their organization vanished! I love how Hye put it

wow, this video was PACKED full of information. definitely influenced by the creators telling us, in story, that opaphid is gone. i always thought there were ways to use nikki to convey stuff like this.
plus, letterboxing? nikki b. usually doesn't even have the proper screen ratios when she uploads to youtube (she looks stretched), now she's got letterboxing? and access to modafinil? and a random motel room with drugs all over it?
the idea that opaphid (a whole ARM of the order disappearing as said above) is gone is more proof that the order is the most incompetent evil organization ever.

wow, this video was PACKED full of information. Speaking of information, here's the text message that Nikki B. saw on the Crazy Guy's Blackberry. Retrieve the girl. The principles of the Hymn of One have failed us. Beware the Watchers because they will go to any lengths to protect her.And I thought the Watchers were with OpAphid... which is now gone! hmmm, we need more retcon, pronto! I thought it was kinda weird how the whole "drugs" thing was hyped up. These are all prescription medicines, and modafinil is actually one of the more innocuous stimulants. They way they lead up to it I was expecting a crystal meth lab or something.

*looks up* hey, that's off topic! This ain't a Simpsons forum oh please don't let that be a clue, I don't want to play games. You should post that at the forum, Glenn--I'd love to see what happens. Poster1: omg I have a theory that Poochie is a metaphor for Glenn and he died on the way back to his home planet Poster2: wait, he's from another planet?! Poster3: he's from San Francisco, you muppet! Poster2: same thing, yo Poster1: k, so maybe Glenn was in an accident on I-5 N! Poster3: how do you suppose he posted that, then? Poster1: Poster4:: hey there! longtime lurker, first time poster--I think I know what this all means though! Poster2:new idea: it's an anagram! Poster2:or maybe a phone number! (sry for the double post) Poster2:or maybe if we decode from text to binary to base64 to morse and back to text we'll get the real message (sry for the triple post) Poster2:can somebody photoshop that? I think I see a speck on there, might be significant (I'm not even going to pretend I'm sorry for that quadruple post). and on and on and on...

* oh boy * en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Itchy_&_Scratchy_&_Poochie_Showthere has been an ongoing discussion here and in the chat (never the subject of its own thread though) comparing early jonas to poochie. hence terryfic's sig changed to "from poochie to piggy in 3 months" -piggy from lord of the flies- at the time jonas was tied up by bree. You know, even though they tried to fix it that Poochie could never come back, didn't he have some guest appearances later? .... Poster 5: I own all the Simpsons on DVD. Well, my brother does but i THINK i can borrow them. Should I start watching looking for more clues? Anybody want to split up this job?

"The Order doesn't watch her videos so she's safe!" You mean they don't believe in YouTube? "Dear log, can it be true? Do all Simpsons go through a process of dumbening? Wait, thats not how you spell dumbening. Wait, dumbening isn't even a word....hmm, I've got to find out more!" -------------------------------------------------------------- Anyway, I did still find the episode interesting and I like NBR... but it was a bit of a stretch for an excuse. Anyway, I'm eagerly waiting to see how this all turns out, and how much involvement she will have in the story from now on.

I think this is an attempt to move back the clock before OpAphid, in other words they are saying let's just pretend that OpAphid was never made canon, now we can go back to the fictional premise that existed in the beginning, the Order, Lucy, the Deacons et all aren't aware of, and so do not watch the vblogs....... OK?
Glenn, I was tempted to quote you on the LG15 forum, but I didn't, I thought that might discourage you from giving us some more insight about your thoughts on this matter.
