Miscellaneous topics: random edition
oh, the sham, the agony of unconnected topics!! will they line up, and produce something coherent? or would the randii, as always, fall upon us; unprepared, uncaring unappealing, and unworthy?! let history judge what should be done with these foul items!! choose all, some, one or none of these topics and compose anything you want with them. and the topics are: 1) Tyrian purple, and the abuse of mullusks. 2) preferred methods of opening public bathroom doors, in the age of uncertainty. 3) the contents of Edwin. A. Abbot's pockets. 4) appeasment strategy, and other volacno managment methods. 5) what happens to lego bricks when they die. 6) grooming tips, offered by Karl Marx. 7) peanut butter, and the maintanance of amphibious vehicles. 8) astrolabes and other crucial cooking utensils. 9) ugly dogs as a valentine's day gift. 10) evolutionary convergence and neo-conservativism. 11) rod stewart's greatest hits. 12) tough breaks in the school of love. 13) keep out of my body bag!! 14) thick skulled thinkers and the assailing of asymptotes. 15) things you should always have in your monster truck . 16) a foodie's guide to medival artillery practices. 17) mosquito nyphs, growing in discarded tires. 18) erasable walls vs. permanent markers. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+&+&+ good luck and may the schwartz be with.

apologies all around

hellow old friends!

it is I, that loathsome creature you failed to scrape off your shoe....

i have not participated in what was happening, not remarking, not reposting, not doing much of anything , as regarding you fine outstanding superheroes (i mean theprosedotcomnicks among you). i apologize profusely , and can offer only my honest shplotzery.

now, like all excuses, you may doubt the credibility of the source, or the likelyhood that any of the following is truthful. have no fear, your instincts are not frayed, and it indeed sounds dubious even to me. but while it is just unlikely, what happned truly did occure. (hence tbe use of the term EXCUSE). i assure you it is all truth, and nothing but, and may i lose my thoraxial proboscis if it isn't!

the thing is covid. yeah, covid has fallen upon us. it started in the summer break. and escalated in its annoyance and headach. in september, we were already doing online classes again. kids were less then enthusiastic about being taught remotely without the edifying educational benefits of body odor, school food, and chalk. they never missed a chance to miss a chance at learning. i was frustrated, tired and overworked. finally in december the government decided that covid is now nothing to worry about (collectively) and lifted travel restrictions. as a result, i got covid. school was not reopened, and we coasted through the last weeks of the term online. oh, to pass a lesson with those little shits while struggling to resist the tremendous back and headache....

maybe someday i'll write a book avout how crazy life is. (no one take my original idea!!!)

then we got a hoilday. i travelled with my girl, and met the family. its a new chinese lunar year now, the year of the rabbit.

yesterday i went back to school again for the first time in four monthes, setting up the traps, and snares-because the cannibals are coming back!!! oh, and both taxis i took today, to and from work were involved in a mild , stupid accident, just before picking me up. i saw this as an ominous sign.

which bring me to the astral vortex. yes, going in paralel with the whole covid mess, was another opening of the accursed portal. i was swallowed alive and taken this time to a parallel reality, were i was living among humans(!!!!?!!!)

humans!! can you believe that?!

they have a lot of similarities to our world. but its the little things that stand out, and make it all seem like delusional ramblings.

for example: on the desktop computer they use a trilobite just like we do, but they call it a "mouse" . i guess you can see some vague resemblence, but of course the thing has no fur and legs. crazy, right?

food is basically the same but the names are different; Patties in regalia is called "Hamburger" and worm in a siphon is called, oddlier still, "pigs in a blanket"!!.

i wont get into the spelling...

in any case it was all doomed back there, and i awaited the passage of the vortex with painful anxiety. until finally i was liberated by the slaves of master Shak'doth, who obluged me and opened the third circle of Crokvix (yes, the third!! talk about an experience). since then i lived within the gaping jaws of the master for a while, and, being beholden to that entity, i was obviously unable to post anything of any significance. but as i was relesed and returned to this plain of reality i set about creating another randii challenge to better prepare us to the coming of the Xorgian tfolensignation. those of you who are in the know, have noticed that none of the topics that were called for were actually involved in this post, but i reserve the right write on the "none" option , which i offered.

sorry again for the poorly quality of this post as also my abysmall behavior as a fellow theprosedotcomnick. it is a good thing we have no capital punishment over on this side....

i bid you all a to be strong and prosper , despite this sludge.
