That sounds more high-tech than my PC.

It IS more high-tech than my PC!

I'm not sure I would like furniture that is smarter than me.

It's all about bringing in the right tools for the jobs. Curse-revokers for undead, physics changes for weird scientists, obedience cults for aliens...

Well, the LL will just have to counter-balance then.

I've just completed my first draft of the last pat of the current issue, the second bit of the envisioned trilogy. It's looking bleak.

Quote:

And, Vinnie's chapter is my favourite thus far. Creepy villain(s), spooky locations, shocking character almost-deaths (not Tanner!), vampish guest stars, all wrapped up in a big dose of Parodyverse history.

Splendid. I'm afraid the history lessons aren't done yet, though. We have at least two more cast members to reintroduce who haven't appeared since Untold Tales numbers only had two digits or less.

        The heaves give you a nice appreciation for just how hard your abdominal muscles can try with or without you. · Visionary · Mon Dec 19, 2016 at 08:53:50 pm EST

  - It's the biggest association of baddies we've seen for some time. · HH · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 02:41:23 am EST
    - Better than second-biggest. · Anime Jason · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 02:07:06 pm EST
      - Well, bigger than second-biggest anyway. · HH · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 08:40:53 pm EST
        
        And this is the biggest one yet! · Anime Jason · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 10:08:31 pm EST
        
        It's not the size of your villain enclave, it's what you do with it. · HH · Sat Dec 17, 2016 at 03:41:42 am EST
        
        Most of it seems to be fleeing, though. · Anime Jason · Sat Dec 17, 2016 at 09:36:59 am EST

        I was never good at math. · Anime Jason · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 12:39:27 am EST
        
        Hence computers. · HH · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 01:35:27 am EST
        
        That's what I tell people (edited). · Anime Jason · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 12:32:47 pm EST
        
        So does Apple. · HH · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 04:49:11 pm EST
        
        They're right, if they mean I don't have to do math. · Anime Jason · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 10:21:24 pm EST
        
        "Math is hard". · HH · Mon Dec 19, 2016 at 03:17:10 am EST
        
        No statement is more true. · Anime Jason · Mon Dec 19, 2016 at 12:11:23 pm EST
        
        What about e=mc2? · HH · Mon Dec 19, 2016 at 10:25:09 pm EST
        
        That's only a theory. · Anime Jason · Tue Dec 20, 2016 at 12:03:39 am EST
        
        A = pi R squared · HH · Tue Dec 20, 2016 at 01:14:18 am EST
        
        That's just tasty. · Anime Jason · Tue Dec 20, 2016 at 10:59:09 am EST
        
        Did you just make a pie pun? · HH · Tue Dec 20, 2016 at 03:40:58 pm EST
        
        A rather crusty one, at that. · Anime Jason · Tue Dec 20, 2016 at 05:14:46 pm EST
        
        May you get your just desserts, then. · HH · Wed Dec 21, 2016 at 01:58:22 am EST
- Well, well, well. · Al B. Harper · Thu Dec 15, 2016 at 07:29:03 am EST
  - What's the use of a well without a bucket? · As people in Yorkshire used to respond back in the 1960s to little HH · Thu Dec 15, 2016 at 12:04:17 pm EST
    - A convenient place to dispose of a dead body? · Al B. Harper · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 04:39:35 am EST
      - The correct answer, delivered in broad Yorkshire, is "Good enough t' drown thee in." · HH · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 06:06:27 am EST
        
        Same result. · Al B. Harper · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 05:35:42 pm EST
        
        Only different. · HH · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 07:52:08 pm EST
        
        A dead body is a dead body - isn't it? · Al B. Harper has read too many UT to already know the answer to that. · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 09:22:18 pm EST
        
        Yes, because it is dead. · HH · Sat Dec 17, 2016 at 03:59:34 am EST
        
        Unless there is a ghoul or zombie waiting down the well, then it might be undead dead. · Al B. Harper · Sat Dec 17, 2016 at 10:35:34 pm EST
        
        That's why there's no bucket, then. · HH · Sat Dec 17, 2016 at 11:42:04 pm EST
        
        So "Good enough t' undead thee in." ? · Al B. Harper · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 01:03:26 am EST
        
        Is undead a legitimate verb? · HH · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 01:43:12 am EST
        
        Since when have Tykes given a damn about correct grammar? · Al B. Harper · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 03:42:38 am EST
        
        Yorkies? A true Yorkshireman is a Tyke. · HH · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 09:15:55 am EST
        
        I almost wrote that. · Al B. Harper · Sun Dec 18, 2016 at 06:16:19 pm EST
        
        Too slow, old man. · HH · Mon Dec 19, 2016 at 03:23:03 am EST
        
        Darn it. · Al B. Harper · Mon Dec 19, 2016 at 06:21:54 am EST
        
        Or just replace it. · HH · Mon Dec 19, 2016 at 10:23:25 am EST
        
        Replace what? · Al B. Harper · Tue Dec 20, 2016 at 07:04:18 pm EST
        
        The thing that needs darning. · HH · Tue Dec 20, 2016 at 08:52:28 pm EST
        
        My socks? · Al B. Harper · Wed Dec 21, 2016 at 04:13:31 am EST
        
        I'm not checking. · HH · Wed Dec 21, 2016 at 09:36:31 am EST
        Re: My socks? · Visionary · Wed Dec 21, 2016 at 06:15:17 am EST
        
        Auditions · HH · Wed Dec 21, 2016 at 09:29:21 am EST
      - Remembering UT#332 · Al B. Harper · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 05:41:00 am EST
        
        What an excellent chart. · HH · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 06:22:02 am EST
        
        Why thank you · Al B. Harper · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 05:48:19 pm EST
        
        You are welcome · HH is so polite · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 07:34:35 pm EST
        
        You are too kind. · Al B. Harper is also kind. · Fri Dec 16, 2016 at 09:35:46 pm EST
