'How much can I trust someone who calls himself Super HiHi Kitti?' by Kara
Don't get me wrong, I'm rather fond of the two new people. Even though I'm pretty sure they're both older than I am, I've gotten to play senpai lately, and I'm really enjoying it. But I could not find a freakin' parking space this morning. I've been working here for more than a year, and this is the first time I've had to spend any time finding a parking space, let alone fifteen freakin' minutes.
You laugh and/or roll your eyes, but there's a grand total of three small businesses in this area: us, a divorce lawyer, and a three-person mortgage company. So either our little business is about to outgrow its home, or a lot of people are in very, very unhappy living situations.
And now I'm glaring out the window because I parked far enough away on the gravel to allow the person in front of me to get out easily, and a little compact car has wedged itself in there. Ass.
Are you going to Katsucon?
First: No, because of distance/location complaints / conflicts: 23% each
Note: Nobody who chose the stalker one left any contact information, so I've recruited two bodyguards. You think I'm joking.
Yes, for part of the weekend / No, because I don't want to: 3% each
Uncreativity: Any variation of 'Not enough money' -- partly my fault for forgetting that everyone who reads my comic lives in a cardboard box, but -20 nonetheless.
Points
* 'Phffft, ill have my own Con, with black jack, and stripers... infact, screw the con!': +10 for own con; -10, lame attempt to reference comic title; -5, candy-stripers are boring.
* 'Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme....': -10 for trying to be clever; -20 for falling into the uncreativity category.
* 'Only if I can ply you with free rum... and Twinkies.': +50 if I'm given then separately; -100 if I disapprove of what you're plying me for, and I keep the rum and Twinkies.
* '...but it's on my birthday, Kara!!': -200; the Co-Writer with the Longest Hair's birthday is the next day, and mine is six days after, and it hasn't stopped either of us! (-100 more if this is Co-Writer griping, because people actually notice your birthday ... also, -1 present.)
* 'Yes, for the whole weekend as someone who helped start the whole shebang...haven't missed one yet.': +50 by way of thanks: +200 pity-points.
Correct Answer: 'I could, but I think going to "fried pork" con conflicts with keeping kosher.'
Ooh, I took a lot of points this week. Not a bad mood, just feeling wicked because I didn't get my City of Villains fix last night and I need an outlet for my cackling evil. New poll, though. If you have been, think harder.
