victor:
I've always thought we should refer to the govenor as the "Guber."
billytea:
You just want to be able to say things like "Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Guber-- nator."
That's one spunky little girl you've raised. I'm gonna eat her.

I used to read Sheri Tepper, but I had to give it up when the dents in my skull from her sledgehammer interfered with the fit of my hat.

Nutty, following up the donut talk:
Um, so I like my men dense, cakey and with coffee?
I like my men like I like my coffee: hot, sweet, and making me all awake inside. Also it's nice if their ingredients come from the grocery store.

If I only had a brain...
Nutty: "Heaven knows, when I lived in Virginia, I got tracts in the mail about how Bill Clinton was murdering people and worshipping Satan."
Ted R: In NYC that's just called going to church. Though finding a virgin to sacrifice is problematic, and many of us cheat and settle for someone who is simply bad in bed.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The first line was Nutty's.

Nutty: Boobies are birds with blue feet.
Billytea: Only the blue-footed variety. Aside from common or garden variety feet, there are also red-footed boobies. Tragically, this can lead to confusion within the booby community. Come mating time, you don't want to find you've shacked up with some strange booby. Thus, the courtship dance of the blue-footed booby (and if ever you get a chance to watch this, do) involves the male waddling up the female, turning side on, and hoisting up his foot as far as he can to allow her a thorough inspection - generally flapping madly to maintain his balance in the process. Then he turns around to present the other side, just in case the first one was just a fluke (ba dum). If he does all this without tripping, then he just might get some action.
You have to wonder if there was some incident in their past that led to fears of the red-footed boobies stealing in and ravishing their women. I like to think so, anyway.
[And I have nooooooo idea whether he's pulling our (blue) legs, either.]

Also Nutty, continuing to set up billytea the way Stockton sets up Malone.
Sorry. It's a basketball reference.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You mean by being dirty?

I'd snicker, but that would be nattering.

Hey they're only dirty if you're playing against them.
