Simple Things

Post by Bluestar »

Why do simple things always get complicated?
It drives me insane :?

[edit] I mean for example: When you tell someone to send the unused portion of their product back to the company....what so so damn difficult about that to understand? I mean, really? *grumble*

Because the common normal person is only half witted.

We all don't know that. I didn't know that.

I guess you have to have some wit to know how it would feel to get half of it removed. :cry:

The last statement was my thought of others thoughts while reading the previous statement. :)

I could sure use some wit. Even some small portion of a wit would do, I think.

It felt just like when you got your entire wit removed, Kiri, except it hurt half as much.

Maybe Scavenger gave up half his wit to someone who really needed it. For instance, someone who had a malignant wit that had to be removed completely. In order to compensate for the loss, Scavenger donated his wit like a spare kidney. In a surprisingly common birth defect, some people are born without a wit at all! So, we might want to applaud Scav's half-witless personality as a sign of his charitable goodwill and loving heart. Bless you, Scavenger.

Then again, he probably just lost it in a drunken pole-vaulting accident.

I think Joy was referring to that particular imm's penchant for grammar help files...
