And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

So, chocolate covered catfish requires even more imagination. So that would be even more expensive. You know I wonder if there isn't a point where chocolate stops going with everything, and people say "skip the other ingredients. Just give me the chocolate".

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

And the process of combining has an overhead. It's a pricy business, imagination.

That Alice Waters is right. People in today's fast-paced society have lost the art of combining their own chocolate and bacon.

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

I think there's a point when the process rolls over on itself and starts eating its own profit. Unless it's catfish and bacon. Which sounds kinda tasty.

That's when the bottom falls out of the chocolate-covered market, engulfing the economy in the chewy caramel centre of recession.

Possibly the point at which you neglect to kill the catfish first.

Always Anti-fascist!

In tenth grade, I wrote a book report on Othello. Which was a perfect choice for a teenaged crime freak. (Of course, part of me was still all "There is no way Desdemona could talk that much and be strangled." Like it was L&O Verona for crying out loud.
