So, uh...

In the realm of gift-receiving that seems to be going around (gee, I wonder who could be responsible?), I received the entire OED.

Sweet baby titans, that takes up a lot of room. I mean, damn. Time to add another entire shelf to my 'reference books' portion of the office.

What, you didn't like the cape?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

I didn't say that. :P Just commenting on the sheer volume of the one gift. I'm assuming you got it shipped, because now I'm trying to imagine you checking the entire OED through customs...

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

The dude at customs loved me, seriously. It was great.

And a keg of Guinness, apparently. Wade, how much did you bribe this guy?

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

'Bribe' is such a crass word...

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Finally there is someone who understands!

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

It's really more like giving them an incentive to let your appeals to their better nature be successful.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Yes, that is exactly it. I also like "giving the poor underpaid agents some relief from a paycheck to paycheck budget"

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's a good one. I'll use that next time!

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

These are not the droids you're looking for?

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Exactly?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

You can go about your business.

Move along!

[xp_daytripper]

Indeed a whole keg of Guinness. Want to come and help me make a dent in it?

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't turn that down!

[xp_daytripper]

Bring some munchies? I seem to have a fridge full of empty again...

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Let me know if Curry Lad is needed?

[xp_daytripper]

You'd be a lifesaver. And maybe some carnivore pizza for Kyle? I'll give you some cash when you get here.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Eh. Long as you're not having the entire mansion over, I can cover it.

[xp_daytripper]

Just the ones who are legal and like Guinness. And my roommate. You know, the one I'm hoping you don't have a problem with?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Your roommate and I just had a perfectly polite conversation up above. So no worries.

[xp_daytripper]

Brilliant. Saves me getting out the cane. ;)

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Yes, ma'am, MiniPete. ;-)

[xp_daytripper]

:P

Just get here with the food already.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

I hear and obey, milady.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

I vow on my word as a ... oh blast, what are the cookie mercenaries here called again?

This was meant to be funny since I was never a cookie mercenary but now I cannot remember what the cookie mercenaries are called.

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

Girl Scouts?

[xp_daytripper]

I like cookie mercenaries. :)
