Revive old alphabets and syllabaries with
this alphabet soup line.
The ancient alphabets
are coupled with ingredients from their
area of origin.
For example, beef barley rune, Aztec corn
chowder and khipu tomato and vegetable.

oh sure, it's all fun and games until somebody mistakenly calls forth Azmordeus, Lord of Darkness, during dinner. |

There's something about this soup I can't quite put my finger on ... |
|
| |
Unlucky, [sartep], you just missed the LOTR tie-in. There goes two types of runic script! |
|
| |
In an annotation on "Chinese Symbol Alphabet Soup" in this category, I proposed Unicode Soup. But I guess it would be more pleasant to stick to one symbol group per soup. |

More likely to be a commercial success if it was Egyptian hieroglyphics - kids'll go for anything with a pyramid on it. |
|
| |
...or maca-runey and cheese.... |
|
| |
NOBODY can handle the runes. |

Special promotions will include Elven
runes with cream of kingsfoil and
TlhIngan gagh and blood sausage for
the fantasy and sci fi fans out there. |

Rune cereal would be easier to sell to kids. |

What do you do about runes that have a free floating graphic element to them...guess it would have to have a small bit of pasta to hold it in place. |
|
| |
Rune Soup was really more the title of
the idea. |

//What do you do about runes that have

|
| |
You could stamp those shapes out of a
pasta square and have the missing
pieces float around the soup. |
|
| |
You could easily make this into prune soup by putting a little p in it. |
|
| |
You could start a corporaton called "Symbology Soups"
It's probably already been suggested, but how about binary soup? |
|
| |
This whole thing started because I
wanted a binary soup but saw too many
things about it on the internet. Was
considering hexadecimal soup until I
thought about how much I liked runes
and other ancient alphabets. |

As for primordal soup, you should post
that. Primordal soup, now with more
carbon! (Actually, I was thinking along
the lines of a soup that had all the
essential ingredients for your daily life
but actually had no living
biproducts in it almost like replicator
sludge.) |
|

That would be DNA soup with the nanoscopic base letters A,T,C and G. |
|

I would like to witness the look on the face of some Holocaust survivor when two "Sigel" runes floated together to form the insignia of the SS in his bowl of soup. This soup might lose a lawsuit in present day Germany where the swatstika is banned. |

What about super soup? Nobody knows what's in it but it tastes good and cooks easily. |
