I have a new series but I won't be writing it here.

It will be the story of Rumplemskin who must protect the residents of Storybrooke from the evil queen.

Can he do it.

Or will she have her flying monkey destroy all of them by flinging flying monkey shit until they die?

Can our hero break the curse that makes every day Festivus in Storybrooke?

Can our hero break the curse that makes every day Festivus in Storybrooke?

I have yet to see a feet of strength, but there is fuck-all airing of grievances.

Icepick said...

Hell, people are complaining about things that happened between people that haven't even been there in years. It's really an impressive amount of pee and poo.

MamaM said...

I'm missing the clues lately.

Is we fill it up with only two, woo, woo, woo the theme in Storybrooke?

MamaM said...

Rumplemskin was pretty good. How do you manage to do this day after day, year after year with no one but a group of losers to affirm your high intelligence and ability to take something out of context and put it back in a different place, buttressed by your mad, mad writing skills?

If someone wants to give you more than a wink and a nod or do more than offer lame and unnecessary comments as compensation, the poetry collection alone could be worth a buck a week with more for the pictures considering the risk of procurement. As for the book reviews? Priceless.

The Dude said...

Darcy, you are so kind. And funny. fionamcgriddle indeed! Made me laugh.

chickelit said...

...no one but a group of losers to affirm...

I resemble that remark, MamaM!

Darcy said...

Hehehe, Sixty. Were my intentions kind? Hope so. ;-)

The Dude said...

As kind as mine, Ms. Darce.

No, wait, that's not right. You actually are kind.

I am kind of something... else...

Quite the pair (threesome?) of angry commenters at Lem's.

It's too bad for them that they are that way. The usual gang over there or hanging around here is a group of rather forgiving individuals. Good hearted, pleasant and happy people.

All I see from the Turrible Three is efforts to antagonize others. Hurt feelings form the AA events? Probably, but then how can they make the case that they were wronged if they bring obnoxious behavior to someone else's blog?

They are proving what others said or believed about them to be true.

Michael Haz said...

And Hi Darce!

Chip S. said...

Moths. Flames.

Or in this case, flaming insects.

Darcy said...

LOL, Sixty.

And hi, Michael!

The Dude said...

Yeah, what is up with that?

Never mind, that new place is just like the old place.

TNOP.

Darcy said...

But we are as cute as a bug in a rug, Chip!

MamaM said...

Now, I see their continual expression of ill-will toward me, and I'm glad to have my distance. If they really loved commenting here and wanted to come back, they should have talked about how they could help me restore the conversation in a way that could work. Instead they showed how much they were part of the problem, and how they didn't really even like me. It's been an enlightenment, and it's affected how I write here. I've enjoyed the comments-free space, and I hope I'm providing better material for those who want to read what I have to say.

Special emphasis on the the final "I", because it's all about LOVE and LIKE for me.

This is so sad.

Chip S. said...

Having noticed that "fionamcgee" has the same meter as "Cruella DeVil", I thought about writing some parody lyrics. But after looking up the original I found that they were already a perfect fit.

Chip S. said...

@MamaM, I suppose it'd be too cruel for everyone to order ball bearings thru the Altazon portal?

How's everybody holding up in the heat? My tongue's hanging out and I'm goin' real easy on myself. Meanwhile I've got a 90 year old neighbor, I kid you not, who's out on his mower in the nearly mid-day heat. He's a tough old coot but maybe I should go out and talk to him. On the other hand he might take it the wrong way when that dang whippersnapper tells him what's not good for him to do. So I'm torn. I'll bet Trooper, that capitalist, has air-conditioning at home as well as at his business. Some people...

Michael Haz said...

I'm wearing shorts.

Postponed my usual 20 mile morning bicycle ride, though. It's already 90F here and the humidity is above 70%, so a bit of caution is wise.

I'll take it easy because tomorrow brings a 300 mile motorcycle ride in even hotter weather, and I always wear a full helmet and appropriate jacket, pants and boots. It'll be hot, so I'm having an easy day today, and drinking plenty of water.

The Dude said...

It was only 93 yesterday, so summer has not arrived here yet.

I walked the dogs down to the river this morning - the water, while still high, has receded a bit from the flooding we got due to two weeks of heavy rain.

Since I work in ambient temperature I really like summer. Winter sucks.

When it gets over 100 I will wear shorts, stumpy legged law prof be damned.

Darcy said...

@MamaM

Oh, for Heaven's sake. That IS a sad post. Oy. I mean - let's just give her the argument that people are dissing her and really don't like her, so good riddance. Then how does she excuse Meade's posts? And the note by him that fiona is properly channeling her? Fiona attacked my faith out of the blue. And THEY are the graceful ones in this?

Ugh. I did not believe that fiona was Althouse, but honestly, does it matter now? It's her sentiment.

Good to know.

Darcy said...

And by that, I mean good/bad to know. Like, ugly to know.

Michael Haz said...

@Darcy

Cut them some slack. They're researching the meaning of the first word of the Hail Mary. :-)

The Crack Emcee said...

Darcy,

It doesn't,...

Michael Haz said...

Since Meade is making a big deal about how many times he/she/blog is being mentioned at Lem's, we should refer to them as "Weiner", "Huma" and "Mad Magazine".

Code words. Dog whistle. Heh.

windbag said...

Legal Insurrection just posted some stats showing that he's almost overtaken Althouse...probably has by now. Comments are raking her over the coals without one rising to her (indefensible) defense.

ndspinelli said...

Haz is our cryptographer!

The Dude said...

Spinnerelli - tell your wife I am still enjoying her book. Problem is I would rather read it than work.

That's not good.

ndspinelli said...

Sixty, Thanks, I will tell her right now.

The Crack Emcee said...

Deb suggested I move my Amazon portal, so I did.

Feel free to use it at your leisure,...



ndspinelli said...

Crack, Great spewing photo! I hope folks buy my bride's book and others, via your portal.

Icepick said...

How's everybody holding up in the heat? My tongue's hanging out and I'm goin' real easy on myself.

What heat? It's been perfectly pleasant down here in Florida, highs about 92, afternoon showers, etc. I have no idea what you're talking about with this 'heat' thing.

Icepick said...

Perfect weather for SHORTS.

Rock. paper. scissors. Lizard. Spock. Fire. Fire always wins. Always.

chickelit said...

@Methadras: I read your now deleted message to Inga at Lem's. That was pretty duplicitous of Meade and Althouse, if true. Also, Inga, blinded by her hatred of you, appears to have overdone her retribution. The whole thing is thickening and sickening.

Darcy said...

Oh,crap. Now I hate not knowing what the story is there!

Can you tell it here, Methadras?

Evi L. Bloggerlady said...

Troop, is that a metaphor?

Dust Bunny Queen said...

Heat? We are at our normal for now. 102 to 104 in the valley below us yesterday when we had to attend a meeting all day..... and about mid 90's here. But....It is a dry heat (generally) so it really isn't all that bad. A few weeks ago we had to go down to pick up some emergency supplies that we didn't have in stock (a 5 hp subermsible pump and some controllers). It was either not go or the people would be out of water for 5 days until our suppliers made their weekly run. It was 113. That was a bit much. But....a dry heat. When people say that we always want to laugh. It's like well...we are in Hell, but the view is kinda nice.

"Oh,crap. Now I hate not knowing what the story is there!"

ME too. I was gone all day yesterday.

This whole meltdown at TOP and now the weirdness at Lem's. It's like watching a slow motion wreck on the highway ahead of you. You want to avoid it and you can't help looking at the same time.

Michael Haz said...

At the cabin. 95F and 87% humidity. No a/c, just ceiling fans and a lake. I am *suitably* dressed.

Weirdness at Lem's? I better go check......

I'm sure I missed the subtext: Where will you be writing this, TY?
