A Certain Sir Is Surprisingly Surly

  

"Amusement Park" by Herr D on heromachine.com. He needs some time off.-Shelob.

--ot really! I've been putting in about 75 hours a week at work and I'm having [3 second pause] family issues.

You are having multiple children?

No! Wth?

You are issuing new family members?

Not children, you twit! PROBLEMS! Sometimes I think maybe English isn't your first language.

It is not. What problems?

[17 second pause] My PRIVACY REDACTION is PRIVACY REDACTION, my PRIVACY REDACTION PRIVACY REDACTION, my PRIVACY REDACTION PRIVACY REDACTION, and, what's worse, PRIVACY REDACTION PRIVACY REDACTION, PROFANITY PRIVACY REDACTION.

That is apparently bad. Why would PRIVACY REDACTION PRIVACY REDACTION?

Well, it isn't her FAULT. She PRIVACY REDACTION.

That is understandable. Notify to autoblog in future.

Right. Sorry. Don't mention any of this, though. 

Please check your privacy settings in the emailed form asap.

I will. [exits]

Looney Vs. Weakly, And Other Odd Questions

You have not consistently been available each moon phase.

Every eight days is just ODD. I'm giving that much content often enough. The schedule is the problem. 

Reminders are available.

It's LOONEY.

Precisely. Set a reminder?

No.

Would you prefer weekly? Seven days times twenty-four-hour intervals might be more arbitrary, but a timer could still work.

I think weekly would become WEAKLY. Let's just stick to what we have now.

Status quo. What do you wish to blog on today?

[pause, italicsbot notes change in breathing] Is it true that horses are better for the environment than cows?

Uncertain. Cows produce more methane, but provide a more even ground cover maintenance.

There's this geneticist who wants to breed beef cattle with those tall horses; you know, Clydesdales?

To improve the environment?

He's playing for high steaks!

That goal is questionable, based upon genetic variances. Such a recombination might result in quite a few other traits. Many of said traits are undesirable--

It's a joke, Shelob.

Noted. Posting.

Worrisome Idea

 

 [extracted from chat]

 . . . so if he's lying, then Pelosi is out of a job?

Yes.

Well, she's smart enough to demand an independent test before throwing away her position.

Have Faith, Hope, And Disparity--Lies Do Not Affect Contagion Or Change Reality

 

 

"Hitler's Rex" or "Das Maschine Catches The Rocket" by Herr D on heromachine.  This historical fiction image suited Hairy's sense of humor, but he found no excuse to use it.-Shelob

I actually found it hard to pray for Trump.

What would you prefer to have done?

Not prayed for him, I guess.

But you felt obligated.

He's human. Somewhere in there is some good. He gave jobs to his family--helping them even though it was bad for the country. 

Your description begins parallel to Darth Vader and ends parallel to Edward Scissorhands.

[pause] The dinner table ethics scene. I'd forgotten about that.

You know, I actually HOPE he was lying?! That was my initial reaction. Maybe he'll do a little less damage to the country in quarantine.

If he recovers too quickly or is the recipient of a brand new treatment that works inexplicably well, then that would indicate deception. 

We'll see.
