Man, I hate that 12 Days song, but I realize this is my issue, so I'll hush.
I hate it too. Or rather, I hated it, then there came the parody which I loved. (Not the Buffista one, the one you occasionally hear on the radio - with someone doing Archie and Edith Bunker's voices, etc.). Then I hated the parody and felt sorry for the original. But yeah, all things being equal, it's an annoying song, which is why I thought: Natter 5 Gold Rings to Rule them all and in the Darkness Bind Them was kind of snarky fun. It's a whole big thing that took place in my head and you kinda had to be there and ...
Look! Pie!
t slightly pissy
Come on, we *agreed we'd use* "Got Funding!" ages ago *on WX* for when we moved to the new board!
which is why I thought: Natter 5 Gold Rings to Rule them all and in the Darkness Bind Them was kind of snarky fun.
But we already used 9 for Mortal Men Doomed to Natter. (or whatever.)
Could someone tell me why 'We Got Funding'? Because I might like it, if I knew where it came from.
"I KNEW this would happen if the bitch ever got funding!" -- Spike re The Initiative.
"I KNEW this would happen if the Bitches ever got funding!"
And maybe if the proposed title had been something "the bitch got funding" I might have liked it marginally better -- "We got funding" has always always struck me as far too obscure and not at all memorable or funny. And no, we didn't exactly agree to it on WX -- it was proposed, there was some support for it, and then there was a poll and it lost.
t /equally pissy and always hated the name
How about a different quote from the same line, then?
'Spike's Bitches 2: I knew this would happen'.
Or 'we', it's doesn't matter.
"We got funding" has always always struck me as far too obscure and not at all memorable or funny.
Plus 'got funding' makes me think "got milk?"
