   Oh, man, I’ve already wasted to much good editing time today, but now I have to go see what all the hubbub is about, bub…

   lmao. “I’ll be the biggest idiot on John Scalzi’s blog.” <=there was quite a bit of competition for that today.

   btw, I’m offended by this. I feel like I can read a book or 3 AND spread crap on this blog. Phhht.

   Having gotten myself stinky from reading a certain thread, Mr. Brust wins the internet today, at least IMHO.

   Damn, spent too much time packing up the books to sell at Chicon and I apparently miss all of the apparent “fun” …

   Aaaand now I know why I haven’t read any Brust. Keep on keeping on J.S.

   I feel like this is supposed to be obvious, but what’s the tune for this supposed to be?

    Will Steven be performing this at Worldcon?

    That was a rather nice unicorn chaser after a rather long day. :-)

    Comment excitement? Where? When? The only reason I come here is for the cups brimming with unadulterated excitement.

    Well, I’ve never “drunk my dinner” before coming here. I don’t drink. The worst you could say about me is I came here in agonizing pain; but that’s a different story.

    Oh, and I have a cat.

    *Yes, I know the ditty isn’t about me specifically just a composite of a lot of different commentors.

    Brian H: No idea what was intended, but in my head it’s “Cover of the Rolling Stone” with the choruses taken out (and minus a beat or two on the title lines)

    *snerk*

    I love that guy. And his hat.

    @scorpius:

    I hear you went up to Saratoga, and your horse naturally won.

    I suspect that for many of them ‘Memory is like a watchacallit’, so thank you, Mr Brust!

    scorpius, as far as I know you’re not banned from Making Light, unless it’s under another name.

    Bearpaw wins the internets. I would award one of mine, but I left my pitifully small collection in my jacket at a coffee shop in Nova Scotia. Where I went for astronomical reasons.

    wait, what happened?? the only posts i’ve seen recently have been totally innocuous… where is this idiocy occurring?
22. scorpius says:
    August 21, 2012 at 8:34 pm

    Ah,

    Now I get the “excitement we’ve had here today”. I get it. I shouldn’t assume when I poke my head in from time-to-time while studying.

    *Back to those stats exams*
