Seussian Goodness!

After much fear and trepidation, I attempt my very first post anywhere. My debut, if you will. Please don't beat me. The likelihood of me doing this right is roughly 27 times less than that Orange guy getting invited to the Boxjam's for dinner.

(Don't babble, please don't babble.)

I applaud the (Brother Emsworth term originated) Return of The Seussian Cadence in the latest strip...how tasty!

I also applaud the Jihad, and generally stand in awestruck wonder of the entire concept.

Perhaps, if I work very hard scouring pots in the mighty kitchens of the Jihad family home, I can earn my way up to my dream: a title in the Jihad.

Jenn Wannabe Generic Jihad Member With No Title

(Can I have a membership card anyways?)

Welcome aboard, Jenn! We'll add you to the chores docket and you'll have to bring something to the pot-luck next weekend. The Jihaad grows by leaps and bounds!

Chores Docket & Green Jello Salad

Joy! Acceptance into the Jihad! This is such a surprise! I'm...I'm overwhelmed! I'd just like to thank a few people...

*whips out a massive roll of paper*

My mother, for feeling that Lewis Caroll was perfectly fine bedtime story material, my father, for supplimenting that with a healthy dose of TS Eliot, the wolverines for not snapping at my ankles...

> We'll add you to the chores docket

Hey! Is it normal to have a whole month of cleaning the wolverine's litter box in a row? Or is this like hazing? Do I have to defenestrate someone next?

> bring something to the pot-luck next weekend.

I suppose that someone else is already bringing jello salad. Probably one of the wolverines. I don't suppose ketchup counts, either...

Jenn,

Officially a Generic Member of the Jihad!

Is my membership card being mailed?

No, but you hafta *be* defenestrated.

*does the honors*

Sidenote: if it came out right, there should be a photo involving myself, Emsworth, and a window, which everyone will get to see upon his getting it developed and scanned... no, he's not going through the window, sadly enough. I must be slipping.

Why do they always look so surprised? You'd think word had gotten around by now. Mmmm, jello salad.

Mmmmm...defenestration

Wow! My first defene....ow! I thought you got a nice soft wolverine to land on!

Defenestrated at 2 am. I /thought/ my sleep was a little restless last night.

Y'all are like...my gods. You're posting to the forum before I'm even conscious.

What makes you think *they're* conscious?

I have an autoresponder bot set up to answer random posts at Toonbots. It rewrites the previous post, shoots it through babelfish into japaneese and back, inserts things about wolverines and defenestration and then posts it.

Amazing. I never planned such sophistication when I wrote you.

Aren't genetic algorithms amazing?

Oh, yeah. Welcome to the jihad, Jenn!

Aye, welcome. We have such nice string of messages going that it would be a shame not to just add more on the end.

Peace be with you, and watch out for those fangs. They're sharp.
