Hello and Happy Friday! I bet you couldn’t have predicted this week’s question:

Would you rather have elbows that glow or knees that squeak?

Glowing elbows absolutely, assuming the knees squeak as you walk, and imagine pulling out your elbows at a party!

I’d rather have squeaky knees because it’s gonna happen when I’m older anyway! :joy:

Don’t tell anyone, but you can get glowing elbows already if you just crack them really hard. It’s like glowsticks.

Well, let’s get down to business; what kind of squeak we talkin’ about here Julia?

  • Like a mouse?
  • Like the pixar lamp?
  • Like Spongebob’s new shoes?
  • Or even something more a of squelch like Squidward?

Now for the other side, what about this glow?

  • Do we pick the colour?
  • Is it a constant colour or can we strobe etc.?
  • How’s the brightness work?

We’re asking the real questions now :thinking:

Now I’m not the CEO of Squeaky Knees & Glowing Elbows LTD but I believe a squeaky knee should be defined by the sort of squeak an old, unlubricated door hinge would produce. Furthermore, elbow colour should be customisable but strobing prohibited due to photosensitive viewers. Brightness should be set to one level, visible through clothing but not bright enough to cause visual discomfort

Ok, now we’re talking.

Bit of a copout for me, and I’ll come clean: My knees are already known to be partial to making a Resident_Evil_1_Loading_Screen_Door_Creak.wav.

Glad to see we don’t have a biological strobing function, I couldn’t be bothered with it honestly, and from how you’ve described it I’m assuming we’re gonna be rocking around a bit like Jason in New Vegas, and that sounds like a fun time (Could you imagine, power goes out and you can’t find a torch or your phone? Who cares at that point? No more shuffling around in the void :joy:)

So yeah, I’m picking the elbows too; Then I’ll have both :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: :rofl:

Is it visible through all cloth or just normal/usual clothing ? Or does it adapt, anyway would pick glowing elbow and learn to sleep with an eye cover thingy

Hmmmm, perhaps bright enough to be visible through a sweater, but not a coat.

Glowing elbows, definitely, but only if I get the rest of the goodies that comes with being a Nightsider.:grin:

my knees already squeak so might as well take an elbow upgrade

Obviously glowing elbows super useful and can hide them with layers to be stealthy.

…but really Julia should be adding a twist after every answer…

“I forgot to mention they glow so bright you can see them through your eyelids when you sleep”

“I forgot to mention the squeaking sounds like squeaker farts”
