Wonderful picture, there. You can't even see the sun; we're not even worthy of being a speck. O.O Now there's a humbling thought.
No, NOS-4-A2 would not make a good huggle buddy. Attempting to use him that way would be very uncomfortable. Plus, it would probably make him rather annoyed.

I suppose it's partly my fault too, seeing as I was the one who suggested that the BLoSC universe is ours in the future. ^^;; But I meant it generally, like some far-off part of the BLoSC universe that we haven't seen yet might be our galaxy, and humans just... colonized other planets in different galaxies and came into contact with aliens along the way. I once read a fic where a five year-old finds NOS-4-A2 and somehow puts him back together. Acutally, I don't think she personally managed it but it's been a while since I last read it. But I betcha anything that little girl was bursting to cuddle him but did't do so because he'd be all, " Hiiissss! Away, foul fleshling!"

You do? XDDD I found it hilarious. I don't think it's been finished, now that I think about it.
Anyway, do you think NOS-4-A2's british accent is due to the fact that Zurg also has a british accent? XDDD

Hold the vid-phone, folks!
Zurg, British? NOWAI! I don't think he has an accent, really, besides what you would think of a typical English speaker in America....I think....but he does say 'schedule', 'status', 'either/neither' funny, though XD
Oh! And 'vegetables'! Can't forget that one!!

Maybe he's just trying to sound 'cultured' enough for an Evil Emperor XD

He's an evil Emperor, he can talk however he wants. Remember the whole 'trandibulator' thing?

So true! It's a perk that comes with the job!
But MAN! When I hear him say 'vegetables' in Root of Evil, I just want to wring his evil, nonexistent neck! Who says it like that?! XD Besides him....

Speaking of veggies and Nos's accent...anyone think he seems to lose that accent when he bites into Buzz's flower-suit?
"Eww! I hate veggies!" It doesn't sound much like Nos at all to me.

Which episode is that? My sis has been bugging me to find it but I don't remember its title at all...
Zurg does sounds somewhat british... or at least "cultured." He doesn't sound like a full-bred american anyway. None that I've heard, at least. But NOS sounds more british than even Zurg does. But there was this one phrase in the pilot episode that convinced me Zurg was british.... OMG, yes, I just remembered!
"That's jim-crackin' dandy!"
I've only heard Britons say strange stuff like that...

That's Dirty Work, and it certainly was most dirty....NOS has no taste in evil decorating! Sludge monsters everywhere! Awful, I tell you.
See, when you say Jim-crackin'-Dandy, I think of the South....XDDDD Like, Jim crack corn, and I don't care~! Jim crack corn and I don't care~! That's what it sounds like to me....but you could be right! Perhaps a dialect in the U.K.?
Then again...they probably altered the heck out of Wayne Knight's voice just to fill the role, and if you've seen Space Jam....let's just say that I would have never known that THAT man was Zurg XDDDDD

Ohhhh, yeeees. Now I remember. Thanks! XD
A Southern accent? No way, the southerners have a really heavy accent, it's nothing like Zurg's light and frivolous-sounding accent. They're nothing like each other.
Yeah, the UK/Britain/England/whatever-it's-called (no offense to whoever's from there) has a number of different accents and dialects. The one we foreigners are most acquainted with because it's the heaviest and most characteristic is the Cockney accent from a district in London. Zurg's accent isn't that heavy -- rather, it's similar to the accent of a different district whose name I don't recall at the moment...
I've seen Space Jam... wait, someone in there does Zurg?!?! Who?!?!?!

Oh nonononono! Not a Southern Accent! I meant his phrase "That's just Jim-crackin'-dandy" almost sounds like the slave song "Jim Crack Corn." Trust me when I say this...he's does NOT have a heavy Southern drawl. XDDD
I still don't hear the British tones, but I'm going to...trust you, on this one. And yes...you know Michael's assistant? That fat, caucausian guy with the glasses? Yep. THAT'S the guy! I wouldn't have a clue if it weren't for casting at the end of teh movie!

His accent could be a southern accent... Because, to paraphrase the Doctor, "Lots of planets have a south!". ;D
