The point of this forum is that there is no point. It is pointless. However, many times, pointless things are fun. So the idea is simple. Basically, keep an eye out for wierd weird wierd (this WORD is weird!) things in your everyday life. They might be obvious, like your brother coming down the stairs in sunglasses, overalls, suspenders and a tie at the same time, or less so, like a strange structure in the park that appears to have no obvious function other than to look creepy. Then either post a link to a model where you can try to recreate the weird, or simply describe it in the comments. IMPORTANT To make a Weird an OFFICIAL Weird, you must list the appropriate category before describing the Weird. You may add a sub-category to an actual category, like this: Ex. Weird Someone Else (my sister) or like this: Ex. Weird Me/Baby Me. At the end of every month, I or my secretary will post the honor roll of the weirdest occurrences, and name the "W.E.I.R.D.E.S.T. of the month" to the person with the weirdest- whatever. You know what I mean. (W.E.I.R.D.E.S.T.=Weirdest Existing Individual of Real-life Discoveries Except for Sally Thally.)

Categories of Weirds: 
  1. Weird me. ***Ex. "Last night I dreamed the weirdest dream about the Bobbsey Twins and a house full of china cabinets..."

  2. Weird someone else. Ex. "Today my brother was singing the weirdest song about gouda..."

  3. Weird us. Ex. "The other day me and my sister tied up the weirdest..."

  4. Weird animals. Ex. "My dog lays on the floor in the weirdest way..."

  5. Weird natural occurrences. Ex. "The weirdest thing happened because of the derecho..."

  6. Weird structures. Ex. "In the park there is the weirdest shiny, gray box..."

  7. Weird facts. Ex. "It's the weirdest thing: goosebumps are actually..."

  8. Weird anything else I forgot. Ex. You fill in here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Rules:

  9. No cussing.

  10. No inappropriate,
    discriminating, or rude
    pictures/conversation/models etc.

  11. Only post links to models, pictures, etc. where you have recreated the weird, unless you have asked for and received permission from one of the three users in charge (listed above). In that case, comment that you have permission to post whatever it is you're posting, or a bunch of people might jump on your back.

  12. Think before you Type. Try not to get into unnecessary arguments.

  13. Chat! and

  14. Keep it weird!

Duties of the President: Post the honor roll, W.E.I.R.D.E.S.T., etc., welcome new members, comment on everything, like everything, die laughing.

Duties of the Secretary: Pretty much nothing. Or everything no-one else does and what the President does when the President is absent. Depends on how Wiz is feeling.

Duties of the W.E.I.R.D.E.R.: The job is in the name! (See above.) Also mediates arguments, if any ensue.

                                                                   W.E.I.R.D.E.S.T. SO FAR!! (Drumroll, please)

@Yerachmiel_15: Even though Yerach is unfortunately no longer on Mecabricks, he is considered an honorary member. 😉

*No offense to anyone with a hippopotamus username, and see page 244 to find out where the hippo reference even comes from.
** Credit to @Marina_Studios04 for coming up with what the D stands for!
***All examples come from real life experiences or facts.
****My apologies if the numbers of Weirds per person are inaccurate, it becomes hard to keep track of all of them. I will try to do a complete update and count ALL the Weirds of the month at the end of each month.


NOTE: Unfortunately, myself (TallGirl2006) and my brother (SlimBrick1) are no longer on the social side of Mecabricks. This means that while we still post models, we no longer comment, PM (Private Message), or post in the forums. Thus, as you can see, our Presidential and Secretarial duties have been passed down to other users, who are listed at the beginning of this post. This also means that I can no longer edit my original comment, the one you're reading right now, to keep track of members' Weirds and anything else I might normally. If you would still like to keep scores and other such things, please ask the current President or Secretary to copy and paste this comment and update and re-post it. Sorry, and thank you! Lots of love.

P.S. If you are a user new to this page and have just read this comment for the first time, and decided to join, get on here and tell all the lazy members to post an actual Weird every now and then instead of just making small talk about totally boring stuff like Joe Biden!!!! Really? Politics?
Seriously though, this forum is meant to be a super pointless escape from the hum-drum of life, where everyone can just be incredibly weird with fellow nerds, geeks, weirdos, and everything in-between. So go be a good example and post a Weird. (See Weird guidelines above.) 😄

Anyone suggest a "good soup".exe?

Hello therw

Weird/astonishing accomplishment: Yesterday I had nothing to do, so I read 1/3 of the first Hunger Games book. O_O
(130 pages, approx.)

@Wiz, that reminds me of the time I read The Invention of Hugo Cabret (the biggest book in my school library) for a mandatory whole school year activity. I had to answer questions related to the book after reading it. I wasn't the first to do it. A classmate of mine did it too.

oh, I love that book! once I read it in like two days o_o
#quarantinedin2020

what is everybodys "good soup"?

favorite soup

The_Farter - Hugo is…

  1. Really good. (The movie was also surprisingly great.)
  2. It’s the longest book in the library?! I don’t remember it being that thick… 😕

Justy - Our Christmas break is in two weeks, and I’m hoping I can finish all 3 books in time, so we can have a Hunger Games movie marathon! 😉

EDIT: And it’s much better than Divergent, let me tell ya. 😁

Scrap - I like turkey soup. °-°

@Wiz: I’ll say! The Hunger Games ends… disappointingly, though. Well, I guess Divergent does too, but less so.

  1. Jaze! You’re back from the dead! 😃
  2. Don’t spoil anything for me!! O_O
  3. But honestly, what makes a movie ending “disappointing”? If a primary character dies?
  4. If our life is hard, why shouldn’t stories have sad endings, too? 😉 It makes the story stick with you.
  5. Divergent wasn’t bad because of the ending, it was bad because the characters were emotionless, and the writing was repetitive.

I've never read Hunger Games or Divergent, what are they? (no spoilers please)

Dystopian novels written for teenagers.

Hunger Games: 13 districts of people are ruled by the Capitol, which (every year) forces them to send two teens from each district into a giant arena. This is where the Hunger Games take place. The competing “tributes” kill each other until the last one standing wins. The Capitol televises the whole thing, (people watch at home) and the tributes try to outsmart one another, while gathering supplies and food to stay alive. The main character is a brave girl named Katniss Everdeen, who’s forced into the arena and tries to navigate the Hunger Games without killing/being killed.

Divergent: Similar idea. Tris lives in a futuristic world in which society is divided into five factions. As each person enters adulthood, he or she must choose a faction and commit to it for life. Tris chooses Dauntless -- those who pursue bravery above all else. However, her initiation leads to the discovery that she is a Divergent and will never be able to fit into just one faction. Then, she finds out that the factions are evil, and goes on the run. After that, there’s a bunch of brooding, poorly-written romance, filler, and weird political undertones.

Got the basic idea? 😉

Yup! Thanks! Also, Divergent doesn't sound so bad.

NP! (And, well… It is.)

Why? Sounds epic!

Example of Veronica Roth’s writing style, (written by me):

I sat there a long time, my jaw clenched. I couldn’t believe that I had killed the man.
My hands felt numb… As though I had pounded them against a rock.
I WANTED to hit something, actually. But not here…
Not now.

😂 But trust me, it’s not worth your time.
I’d recommend Hunger Games instead. What I’ve read so far is an incredible story of perseverance and bravery…
