Trout!
Hrm. While I know I appreciate it a great deal, one would think that with one week left of school and presumably exams looming, that Emsy would have other things to do than find me stuff to giggle over at work. Not that I'm complaining. Just worried about his welfare.
And it's just heartwarming to see how the old classics keep turning back up in the arts, over and over. I see now where my favorite episode of Scooby Doo got it's inspiration. You know, the one where Fred thwarts the evil property owner who's dressed up as the ghost of Pokey by whipping a trout at him? And the owner says, "I'd have done it, too, if it weren't for these meddling kids. And their trout." and everyone laughs and Shaggy gives the trout a Scooby snack?
I heard (and this is from an unofficial source, so take with a grain of salt) that that's where Scooby's insecurity problems started, competing with the trout for screen time. And that's what started him on that downward spiral of drugs, catnip, and that disasterously dysfunctional relationship with Benji.
I know that Michael's probably gonna yell at me for changing my mind again, but could I have that title having to do with being all evil (cause I'm /not/! Someone /else/ called me that! I'm sweet and good!) changed to 'Smartly Trimmed with Richly Grained Leatherette'?
Cause that's way cooler.
