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

You'll never make Ruler of the 31st Century with that attitude.

I wouldn't need to make him. He probably comes pre-assembled.

Quote:

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:

Bleak for whom?

The survivors.

Quote:

We will find out sooner than you might think. Things are moving fast now.

Go with the orange cat Vinnie. Speaking of:

Quote:

I enjoyed the use of the mirrors to diffuse the three situations. Well plotted.

More in the way of "How the hell do I resolve the cliffhangers without having to give everyone another a chapter each?

Quote:

Not sure I'm fully following along with all that Queen Mab was doing - was/is she part of the villainous plot or was she just doing her own thing? I may have overlooked an important part, but didn't she just offer folk sanctuary in the Mythlands?

She was just being a bit opportunistic, but Yo felt she shouldn't be left off unchallenged. It's not a proper LL story without someone spawning a multi-part sidequest.

Quote:

So the villains gathered thus far are: Apostate, Crapsack (destroyed), Madam Symmetry, Magenta St Evil, Leyland Reed (does he have a villainous name?), and??

And Madame Jikininki (also destroyed)

Quote:

Do we need to find a new nexus being now?

First you'll need a Nexus.

        Most of it seems to be fleeing, though. · Anime Jason · Sat Dec 17, 2016 at 09:36:59 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

        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
