Blogflog: "The New Orleans Effect"

Am I the only one that's still feeling the effects of New Orleans? What effect? Well, inappropriate thoughts that want to come out your mouth as actual words, and do.

Hey, man. Don't blame a completely innocent city for your rotted brain and failing vocabulary. NO's been through enough.

I'm not usually that good at quippy double entendres, except on paper, but there must be something in the air in New Orleans that gives you this questionable ability.

Oh great. Anyone else foresee Anita going down to New Orleans (whatever happened to Elan Vital anyway?) and suddenly gaining the Power of Verbosity?

And her quippiness died out… well, a long time ago. Bloody Bones, maybe? Earlier. Now she just recycles Anita's phrases like she does her men. LKH, some things are better if you only use them once.

But something about New Orleans takes that little conductor in your head that goes, yes or no, on what you're about to say, and ties him up and puts him in the closet.

No, LKH, that's just you. You excel at depowering men and putting them in the closet. And now, a moment of silence for the faded glory of Jean-Claude and Asher.

Also, somewhat telling, isn't it, that Uber-Feminist has a MALE censor?

I have been reduced to utter silence by the presence of my own child, because thought after thought is inappropriate in front of her.

Memo to Trinity: Be thankful.

Memo to LKH: Your books are inappropriate for your daughter. It's not really surprising that your thoughts would be too.

Oh God, I never even thought about that.

Amen, sister. Amen.
