Rule # 211: Robot Chicken is banned. (By Starart123)
(No. Just... no.)
(Soundwave will have his revenge. And it will make you want to die.)
(Up until that point, I could've sworn my uncle kept his promise about getting rid of that picture...)
Rule # 212: Knock Out is indeed fabulous, but he does not need to sparkle. (By Aurrawings)
(Four words: Glitter, recharge, alt-mode. Actually, that might only be three words. I don't know. And I don't care either.)
(No, you idiot, I didn't do it!)
(Not on purpose, anyways.)
(What happened was, I went shopping for some supplies-)
(No, not pranking supplies! Stop interrupting me or I'm just going to walk away and let you deal with the Decepticons on your own.)
(Are you going to let me finish now? Good.)
(As I was saying, I needed some supplies to finish a surprise I was working on for the Fourth of July. Fireworks, streamers, that sort of thing. The glitter was just an afterthought because I thought Rumble might like it.)
(He has a weakness for shiny things... Don't tell anyone I told you.)
(Well, Knock Out had elected to remain outside because he was apparently too fabulous to go into a craft store, and he had settled into a light recharge during the hour or so I was gone. When I got back, he barely woke up enough to open his door and let me get in. I accidentally dropped the glass container of glitter, which broke... and unleashed its contents all over Knock Out's interior.)
(To this day his interior still sparkles.)
(Neither of us has managed to live it down.)
Rule # 213: Unless you want to die, leave Knock Out's buffer alone. (By Aurrawings)
(Remember the very first rule when I said I came back from Starscream's joyflight with more bruises and scratches than when I tried to take KO's buffer?)
(I wasn't exactly honest with you. I didn't try to take it, I helped Frenzy replace the pad with sandpaper.)
(For the love of Primus, stop interrupting me! I have absolutely no problem with walking away right now and letting you figure everything out on your own. So unless you want to take that risk, I suggest you shut your mouth.)
(I'm sorry, I didn't mean for it to come off like that. I just don't like being interrupted when I know what I'm talking about. You don't need to give me that scared look; I wouldn't hurt you unless I had no other choice in the long run. I can't promise about the Decepticons, which is why I can't have you interrupting me. I'm not trying to be mean; I'm just trying to keep you alive.)
(As I was saying, Frenzy and I replaced the buffering pad with sandpaper-)
(You know what? Forget it. All you need to know is the aftermath.)
(Long story short: Frenzy wound up with a missing arm as well as a flourescent blue paint job. I ended up with a new scar across my back and when I finally found my favorite jacket, it was dyed bright green.)
Rule # 214: While you may not have time for that, don't say so in front of the Decepticon who told you to do it. (By inkdragon13)
(I thought it was funny, at least the first couple of times I did it. After that, I got tired of the glares and laser bursts sent my way.)
(Just in case you decide to try this anyways, let me give you a run-down of what you should expect.)
(Starscream will flat-out try to shoot you.)
(Dreadwing does not tolerate insubordination, so he will purposely assign you to the most boring and monotonous tasks in the world for weeks.)
(Airachnid will either try to stab you with one of her extra legs or web you to the ceiling until you agree to do it.)
(Soundwave will sic Ravage on you.)
(Megatron will ask again in his most threatening voice, and if you say it again, you might want to run to avoid Predaking.)
(Breakdown will throw something at you.)
(Knock Out is unpredictable, so I can't give you a good warning.)
(Just remember that it's not in your best interest to say this in the first place and you won't have to worry about it.)
Rule # 215: Mine Turtles are never a good idea. (By inkdragon13)
(Correction: they're a good idea only when certain Decepticons step on them.)
(If Starscream steps on them, it's all good. You may end up with a new scar or two, but believe me, it's totally worth it just to hear Screamer shriek like a femme.)
(If Airachnid steps on them, it's still okay. Just watch your back for a few days afterward.)
(If anyone else steps on them, you're in trouble. A varying amount of trouble depending on who.)
(Primus forbid Lord Megatron steps on one of them. That happened to me once. I heard the adorable "Hello!" and the explosion, but didn't know who stepped on the button because I was hiding around the corner.)
(The next thing I know, I find myself staring up at a slightly blackened Megatron who looks like he's about to kill me.)
(I wish he had just thrown me in the Brig.)
Rule # 216: If you must play with Pepsi and Mentos, do so in an appropriate place. (By inkdragon13)
(Appropriate places are: the rec room and the twins' quarters.)
(Starscream's quarters is not an appropriate place. He apparently hates having sugary soft drink splattered all over his stuff.)
(However, if you make a rocket out of the soda bottle, it's perfectly alright to play with it in the general viscinity of Screamer. It will somehow end up hitting him in the face. And he will scream out of surprise. And then shriek about the soda getting into his gears and messing with his paint.)
(I was laughing my head off so badly I almost didn't notice when he picked me up and threatened to take me on another flight to Tokyo.)
Rule # 217: 'The Song that Gets on Everybody's Nerves' gets on everybody's nerves. (By Aurrawings)
(Especially Starscream's. This is why I like the song.)
(Honestly, I don't know why everybody thinks I hate Starscream, just because I irritate him more frequently than Airachnid. I don't dislike him at all - except when he's trying to kill or maim me, of course. I just like to annoy him. He makes it fun.)
(Piece of friendly advice if you insist on playing the song around Starscream: hide somewhere it is impossible for him to find you.)
(In other words, convince Dreadwing to protect you until Screamer's rage has subsided.)
Rule # 218: 'The Whistle Song' also gets on everybody's nerves. (By Sorcelle Dragonmoon)
(The result and suggestion are exactly the same as the previous rule: Starscream being enraged, you hiding and convincing Dreadwing to protect you.)
(Otherwise there will once again only be one human living on the Nemesis.)
Rule # 219: Don't convince Knock Out to meddle with someone's T-cog. (By tankbuster626)
(I never did this, but let me warn you anyways.)
(T-cogs, better identified as Transformation Cogs, are bio-mechanical parts of Cybertronians that allow them to transform and activate their integrated weapons systems. They're organs, for Primus' sake.)
(But if you decide to be an idiot and ask KO to mess with someone's T-cog, he will do it. He is a literal mad doctor when it comes to things like this. He would be extremely happy about doing this, so if you ask, he will do it.)
(So don't ask him, even if it's a joke!)
Rule # 220: No one is allowed to play Spin the Bottle. At all.(By 16DarkMidnight80)
(First of all, Frenzy really needs to stop browsing the internet when he's bored. It gives him ideas.)
(Ideas that almost always end badly for everyone else, including Rumble and myself.)
(Second of all, Rumble has yet to apologize for convincing me it was a good idea to play this stupid game. I don't know how he managed to do it, but he did, and I'm still pretty mad about it.)
(You would be surprised how many members of the crew he convinced to play. There were quite a few Vehicons, Airachnid - strangely enough - and Breakdown that I can remember at this exact moment. I'm betting neither Frenzy nor Rumble explained to them the specifics of the game, given that none of them looked in the slightest bit nervous or uncomfortable.)
(Amazingly enough, Airachnid spun Breakdown on the first go.)
(That ended well. Poor Breaky.)
(If anyone tells you that I managed to spin Rumble, they're lying.)
(I quit before it was my turn.)
(And no matter what Rumble says, it is not cute when I blush.)
