Hmmm, Unclepepsi Fluther is loaded to the gills with skeptics! I think you’re going to have to prove you are king first. Any ideas how you are going to do that?

Unclepepsi's avatar

Not yet but I’m thinking about it.

Unclepepsi's avatar

I do have a crown.

YoKoolAid's avatar

Kool Aid is cooler than Pepsi

Unclepepsi's avatar

who is aunt pepsi

Akua's avatar

I don’t understand the question. Smile.

Earthgirl's avatar

a crown, pffft!!!

Earthgirl's avatar

We value substance over style. Glitzy doesn’t cut it. What else do you have?

Earthgirl's avatar

Bring it!!!

Unclepepsi's avatar

Challenge Accepted.

Hawaii_Jake's avatar

Fight! Fight!

In the schoolyard.

If you are truly king of the jellies…you will have to produce the keys to the frizzer to prove it. Otherwise you are just another royal imposter! ;)

Unclepepsi's avatar

I have the cake in the frizzer award if that’s what you mean.

Unclepepsi's avatar

I am no imposter, I have a crown.
And my staff is being made

AshLeigh's avatar

Fluther is full of Jellies who think they’re the king. They multiply like titlewaves, destroying the bay.
You’re the Jester.
I’m the king.

Unclepepsi's avatar

But I have a crown. I am you king. I have faced the black night and everything.

AshLeigh's avatar

Don’t make me have you beheaded. :)

Unclepepsi's avatar

Only the Queen of Hearts has that power.

Wundayatta means “King” in Svabungo. What does @Unclepepsi mean in Svabungo? It means “little slimy thing that crawls around in the entrails of fly larvae.”

Svabungo is a made up language that can only be spoken while sitting under the Orange Tree.

Oh. And whenever I sit under the orange tree, a group of tiny American crocodiles play a little fanfare on miniature trumpets.

But you know, you are welcome to sit under the orange tree with me any time you want, oh little slimy thing that crawls around in the entrails of fly larvae.

Trillian's avatar

Um… I like Coca Cola.

Unclepepsi's avatar

@wundayatta I am not justifying that with a response, but I will say that, I would love to come sit under the orange tree with you as you humble King. But I will eat the oranges that fall on my kingdom floor.

wundayatta's avatar

A response is a response is a response, said the fateful bard.

Have an orange, your lese majeste!

Unclepepsi's avatar

Why thank you kind sir. Your oranges are the best in the sea.

Trillian's avatar

Is this the place to order an Orange Crush?

wundayatta's avatar

Best orange crush you ever had. Comes with an optional hug, no extra charge. The king will hug all his subjects… except trig. For some reason, he never really liked trig.

Unclepepsi's avatar

I will hug anyone for I am your humble King.

AshLeigh's avatar

This is funny.
Guess why?
Because you’re the Jester.
And I agree that @wundayatta is the king.

Unclepepsi's avatar

No I am king I have a crown and everything.

AshLeigh's avatar

A plastic crown.

Trillian's avatar

@Unclepepsi I’m sorry honey, the paper crown that comes with the kids meal from Burger King does NOT count. Now go clean your room, there’s a good boy.

cookieman's avatar

A burger king crown at best.

@wundayatta is the rightful king. He has earned it in words and in thought.

And while we have many true queens, we have only one dominatrix – @augustlan who shall smite ye heartily with the blistering tip of her whip.

Now begone, pretender to the throne, lest the maker @bendrew happen upon you and make you wish you’d never set eyes upon this lagoon.

oh hey…and welcome to Fluther.

AshLeigh's avatar

Yes, Jester, welcome to Fluther. :)
Can I be a princess?

Trillian's avatar

@wundayatta Thanks for the OC and the hug. I’m waiting for my coke to get just this side of freezing so it slushes when I open it.
Ptscccccchhhhhh! Ahhhhhhhh. That’s good!

Lol, written sound effects are awesome.

I wrote this thing about a king once, and I just ripped everything off from Excalibur, and probably some Metallica songs. I also had to add ghosts in it. The king dies, and the land with him! Don’t let us down, O Prince.

tranquilsea's avatar

King Arthur: I am your king.
Woman: Well I didn’t vote for you.
King Arthur: You don’t vote for kings.
Woman: Well how’d you become king then?
[Angelic music plays… ]
King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.
Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin’ in ponds distributin’ swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Berserker's avatar

that was awesome

Hawaii_Jake's avatar

I follow no king. I’m an anarcho-syndicalist

ZEPHYRA's avatar

Who, your Majesty, has crowned you king? What gives you that REGAL quality? How many jellies will your court be willing to accept? Pray do tell me kind Sir….will you grant me followership?

zensky's avatar

I just follow Jake.

augustlan's avatar

Wait. Did I make you king? I sleepwalk and talk. You can’t trust me…

Bellatrix's avatar

Does this mean you have to consort with @Unclepepsi @Auggie :-O

augustlan's avatar

Hmmm. Depends on what he looks like. ;)

Unclepepsi's avatar

My crown is made of the finest plastic this side of the hemisphere, i know not of this burger king crown of which you speak. I will never yield my throne.

“I’m an anarcho-syndicalist”

SmashTheState of Hawaii! ;-)

Unclepepsi's avatar

@Hawaii_Jake and to think I was going to knight you for having the same name, you could have gathered with me at my octagonal table. We could have feasted and went on quest and everything.

Sunny2's avatar

Oh goody. Are we going to have an election? Can I be a Republican this time? What do you mean you don’t elect kings? Why not start?

chewhorse's avatar

I’m willing to do it… For a price. What? I got two dogs, ten kids ‘n three wives.. ta feed.

Unclepepsi's avatar

You don’t vote for a King.

AshLeigh's avatar

This is not a democracy.
It’s a dictatorship, and @wundayatta is Hitler…

Unclepepsi's avatar

And Hitler lost. I reign supreme as your lord and king. All bow before that which is unclepepsi. Hail to me, hail to me.

wundayatta's avatar

I have a full beard. I cannot be Hitler. At least, not convincingly. Also, I don’t speak German. Besides which, Hitler was dead years before I was born.

I fear that I am myself and myself alone.

I just finished a book in which everyone who wanted to fought to be king. Fought to the death. Whoever survived was king. They didn’t need no crown, neither!

Unclepepsi's avatar

I don’t need a crown but I have one which validates me as the ruler of the sea? I am the king the true and only King.

AshLeigh's avatar

@Unclepepsi.. If you’re the king, why are your “peasants” insisting you are not?
Jester, Jester, Jester.

Unclepepsi's avatar

Because they are not educated in the laws and rule of the sea.

Dog's avatar

There once was a Jelly on Fluther
Who loved the sea like no other
He was uncle and friend
and goodwill he did send
As he fished every day till the end.

Unclepepsi's avatar

@Unclepepsi you are the best King ever.

Cruiser's avatar

@Unclepepsi We sacrifice narcissistic kings at every 10,000 lurve celebration here. “IF” you ever do get to the 10 K mansion you will see a huge pile of plastic crowns out behind the mansion.

King_Pariah's avatar

Amusing, considering that I believe I’m one of a very few jellies – if not the only jelly – with the title of King in their username.

but @wundayatta is definitely the King of Fluther

Unclepepsi's avatar

no no no I am king

King_Pariah's avatar

You can be king, that’s fine. :) Wundayatta is KING though, hands down

AshLeigh's avatar

Wundayatta, FTW.
I named my pillow pet after him. That makes him superior. ‘kaythanksbye.

wundayatta's avatar

Even if “Wundayatta” means king in Svabungo, I would just point out that that does not mean there is a King of Fluther, nor who that king might be, should he even exist.

I do, however, very much appreciate the support I have receive here. It will be remembered at the annual Fluther Ball, whose theme, this year, I might add, will be the monarch. As in butterfly.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

An old woman once said, “Strange women lying in ponds, distributing swords is no basis for a system of government!” And she was right. I don’t distribute swords to men who like Pepsi; my shimmering samite clad arm only holds Excalibur aloft for drinkers of Dr. Pepper.

AshLeigh's avatar

My vote’s on UncleMountainDew…

Cruiser's avatar

@Unclepepsi the Jellies are getting restless here…you speak highly and often of you kingyness and we have yet to see anything remotely majestic out of you. Your Pepsi is going flat so what say thee Naive?

lillycoyote's avatar

Maybe about the same number of people who follow me on Fluther because I am Queen of the Sun?

Give or take a few statistically insignificant folks either way?

Just guessing here. I could be completely wrong on this one.

Strauss's avatar

“And while the King was looking down, the Jester stole his thorny crown…”

chewhorse's avatar

Godda dollar? That’s the minimum I’ll take to give a s _ _ t.. Yeah, I’ll follow you for a few bucks.
