Also, an announcement (or, the Stupid Question of the Day).

[featherynscale]

If you have borrowed the black leather pants belonging to our household, can we have them back?
I'm certain we loaned them to someone, and odds are good that that person is on LJ, but I have no idea who they might be anymore, nor do I know the circumstances of the loaning of the pants.

Anyway, if you have a pair of black leather pants around your house that you are reasonably certain are not yours, they might be ours. kthxbye.

I understand.

It's a shame that my co-workers have become so used to various silly questions, dancing-like-a-monkey stunts, and strange howls coming out of my cube that such a qestion isn't met with a stuttering response of incredulity, but rather a simple, straightforward answer.

*sighs* I'm losin' my touch. :)

Nah, they're just used to you, which is good. For a while, you can just add tricks to your repertoire and still get the gibbers and stares, but then, at some point, they come to expect anything from you, anything at all, so that nothing is surprising anymore. I consider this our most sacred and important work as Discordians, elevating people to the point where no matter what weirdass shit comes at them, they can respond with a simple straightforward answer, for truly, isn't this what She does to us?

You totally get a point for that.

Nifty. But can I trade it for your pants?

[chronarchy.livejournal.com]

Next time I see you, you may trade this point for my pants.

Do you require a receipt so you can redeem it later?

[featherynscale.livejournal.com]

That would be lovely. It would, in fact, be just about as good as the pants themselves.

*nods*

Let me make one up for you and send it.

(Oy, this may start an interesting trend in cashing in points before reaching 10.)
