Oh, and nor can you have my shoes.

Um, no - Sixer. That doesn't sound right.

It doesn't, but two wrongs a right make, right?

I was merely indicating that I'd have written "You can't have ... either", if I wanted to stop right there. Or, indeed, "and neither can you have my shoes".

But that's not what you wrote. I'm still puzzled, by the way, and can't decide whether what you wrote is an unintentional double negative or not.

No, but three lefts come pretty close.

When I'm dead, the booze goes with me.

Indirectly, yes.

We'll all drink it, then stand around pissing on your grave.

Seems only fair.

So I missed the last two Wormwood societies, and the last time at G&C's. So I have not seen anyone but Fluff since LF04.

SO YOU THINK I MAY BE A LITTLE FLAKY LATELY, HUH? DO YOU?

Well, you would be right. I've been a bit busy with the RL.

And Hiram, this was less than three months after the last Opiegate fiasco. We trusted no one... and you how most people in Seattle view absinthe.

This whole "Real Life" thing perplexes me.
I have no trouble having a Real Life and having a Lounge Life.

Is this odd?
Hiram
You're asking us what's odd???
A.B. Normal
Strangely, yes.

That should say something about my tolerance for odd or strange.
Masque
It's more of a time thing.
A.B. Normal
My schedule is very regimented.
I suppose that's odd.

Fridays in the Lounge.
Saturdays for Real Life.

Really just because I assume I can't stay up late on Fridays since I get up so early.

I guess tonight makes that theory rather obsolete.

Oh well.

I bet it was,
I was viewing them through a sick hangover ,
and they got me good.
A.B. Normal
It was the clowns, yes.
I had nightmares last night, as I suspected.
But I got to shoot mewing clowns so I guess that's not too bad.

I thought it was three rights to make a left.

Oh,
Y'all left too early last night.

3L=R => 3(3R)=R => 8R=0 => R=0

So, "right" is "zero".

I bet Jade- the only REAL Burnt™ absinthed prol agrees.

[That'll get all those conservatives on their high horse, unless their skills allow them to see the *other* corollary of 3L=R.]

That's actually a triple-negative. I've actually heard people use these, at which point I can no longer figure out what they're saying.

Or should that be...

I can't figure out nuthin' 'bout what they ain't not sayin'

Hey, I just thought of a clever way for potential absinthe importers to get product through customs!!

Add the following to the label:

THIS PRODUCT DOESN'T CONTAIN NO THUJONE!!!-this stuff has nothing to do w/the buzz from absinthe, NOTHING!!!!-this stuff has nothing to do w/the buzz from absinthe, NOTHING!
