George Clooney Presents...The Monuments BBs

Posted: Fri Dec 19, 2014 1:18 pm
by George Clooney
Introduction: During the great Bored shutdown of 2014, much of the Bored artwork was stolen by Morlock infiltrators.
They also pilfered the historical collection of Lyrically Speaking and every Bored notebook.

Image


Seven brave BBs took on the challenge of finding these valuable items and returning them to their rightful place.
They are The Monuments BBs




Image

Scene: Bored archivist Marley Stokes explains the situation to President Dave


Marley: You can wipe out an entire generation of BBs, you can disable their forums and somehow they'll still find their way back.
But if you destroy their history, you destroy their achievements and it's as if they never existed.
That's what the Morlocks want and that's exactly what we are fighting for.

President Dave: So what do want from me?

Image

Marley: I’ll need to get some men to the front line, check every unused FNGD forum and stalled political post.
The history of the Bored is out there and we need to find it. Who would make sure that the Queen Fantine is still smiling?
Who will protect her?

President Dave: You realize none of this makes any sense, right?

Marley: We’re counting on that.

President Dave: Very well, assemble your men.





Scene: Marley meets with T-Bone Granger, an expert on music and music history


Image



Marley: I’m to put a team together and try to protect what’s left and find what’s missing.

[reading from a document from the office of President Dave]

T-Bone: The Monuments BBs

Image


[points to the document]

Marley: Signed by Dave

T-Bone: How many men?

Image

Marley: For now, six.

T-Bone: Jesus

Image


Marley: Well, with you it’s seven.

T-Bone: Well that’s much better. So you want to go into a war zone with some over-the-hill BBs and tell our boys what they can and can not blow up?

Image

Marley: That’s the idea.

T-Bone: Aren’t we a little old for that?

Image

Marley: Yes. [smiles]


Scene: The Monuments BBs begin to arrive on site.

Image

Image

Image


Scene: Marley explains the situation to the Monuments BBs


Image


Image

Marley: We’ve narrowed down the search. Our intel tells us the artwork is being hidden in long-abandoned FNGD forums and political threads.

Image

Sgt. Esto: Do you know how many political threads there are? Some of those go down a long way.

Image

Marley: We found a map that may be helpful



Image

Macrae: It looks like there may be some LS scrolls in the abandoned chat room.


Marley: Yesterday we found 16,000 artifacts in an election thread. It seems the Morlocks take better care of their art than people.

Image

BackInFrance: That doesn’t make any sense, Marley.

Image

Marley: I’m counting on that.


Scene: T-Bone meets up with Beebs, a type-casted French BB of, ahem, semi-easy virtue

Image

Beebs: We’ve rescued some of the Boney Awards threads. I’m positive the rest are still around.

T-Bone: Great. I can’t wait to tell the others.

Image

Beebs: So you won’t be staying? I will make it worth your while.

Image

T-Bone: No, really, I have to get back.

Image

Beebs: But I am a French woman of semi-easy virtue. I’ll show you some of my selfies.

Image

T-Bone: Wow. You’re really…limber.

Image

T-Bone: Wow!


Scene: The Monuments BBs arrive at an abandoned political thread

Image

Image

Marley: It’s huge.

Image


Suitguy: It’s from 2008. A banner year for political discussions.



Scene: Inside the political thread, the Monuments BBs check every post

Image


…find some artifacts…

Image

Image



…and begin moving them out of the thread…

Image


…and loading them up.

Image


Scene: Something is not quite right for Marley

Image

Marley: Still no sign of the Queen Fantine painting. There has to be another thread we’re missing. I’m going back in.

Image

T-Bone: I’m going with you

Image



Scene: The men return and show off the artifacts they found

Image

Image


…including all the Lyrically Speaking and Boney Awards lists…

Image



Scene: Marley meets with President Dave one more time

Image


President Dave: I heard you lost some men on this expedition.

Marley: Yes, two fine BBs were permanently logged out.

President Dave: So I have to ask you, Marley. Was it worth it?

Marley: You tell me:

Bravo!

That was exceedingly well done and laugh-out loud funny.

And better than the original...


Again, bravo!
