Rio:

Hecubus, stop being such a RIM JOB, OK?

P.S. Why do I have to work today? HUH????

billytea:

I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that the correct answer is 'penance'.

An extended MM/Rio riff in Natter:

MM

John H

MM

Rio

Re: USian afternoon CAPSLOCK silliness in Natter:

Theodosia:

I thought it was similar to one of those things where the cats gallop around the house with their tails all fluffed up. Only with capslocks.

Miracleman:

Now I'm trying to come up with an alphanumeric way to indicate that I am poinging sideways away from NOTHING WHATSOEVER and that my pupils are freakishly dilated to twice the size of my head.

It's a challenge. Maybe I need a different keyboard.

Yes, but your formatting is better.

Hey, you can be fast, or you can be pretty. Your choice.

That's some kind of celebrity wisdom, I'm sure of it...

Dear Santa,

I hate to say this, but you have to take some of the blame for kids figuring out you're not real. I mean, jolly all the time? Red velvet suit? Lives at the North Pole?

Elves? Dude, we gotta talk about those elves. And Rudolph having a glowing red nose is patently ridiculous, Santa, even you have to admit that.

The flying sleigh is just stupid. Anybody with an Aerospace Engineering degree could tell you just how non-aerodynamic a sleigh is, not to mention the fact that 8 reindeer aren't going to give you enough horsepower to pull a sleigh weighted down with presents for children the world over. Why don't you lay off claiming that magic stuff, too? I mean, it only makes you look silly.

So here's my advice: buy a fleet of Concord jets, subcontract everything (and make sure those contractors sign them forms, yo), and go spend some quality time at your vacation home in the Bahamas with Mrs. Claus.

P.S. I want a Jayne action figure for Christmas, complete with *
