Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ho. Lee. Shit.

The first one (and winner) especially....

The status is NOT quo.

But, let me guess: you can't get there from here.

No, actually, I pass three of them on the way to work!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I've been to that contest! Not this year (hell, not even in a year that starts with "2"....it's been a while), but I've been there. The sculptures are amazing in person. They look like marble, especially at night.

Damn. I really wanted to make a New Englander joke.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"drinking chocolate" is just a weird term

I think "drinking chocolate" is a great term, but I guess it would be messing with the purists to apply it to Swiss Miss.

The term just makes me happy. Chocolate! Being drunk! Much more involving than chocolate that's just being hot.

And then there's "cocoa." Mmm. "Cocoa." You have to say it in a bit of a British accent -- doesn't much matter which one. "Cocoa."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Woah. That's beautiful. I love the third-place one, too.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Damn. I really wanted to make a New Englander joke.

Sorry, Steph, but you can't swing a cat without hitting a DD in New England.

Sorry, Steph, but you can't swing a cat without hitting a DD in New England.

Well, I knew that, but I had thought that the funny part was that, even though DDs are everywhere, you still can't get there from here.

I am, of course, basing my perception of New Englander humor on a sample of one, consisting of my bro. As a former Midwesterner, he must be misapplying the "can't get there from here" joke.

If DD were David Duchovny, I might be able to get over my East Coast aversion.

But, ita, why do you want to hit David Duchovny with a cat?
