sometimes nothing can be a real cool hand
About

For today's rejection time, why don't you go and visit the charming T.H. Mafi, who was brave enough this week to attempt an interview with our person. Ah, the follies of youth! At this time, the Rejectionist wishes to magnanimously confer Official Fiancé/e Status upon this delightful young moppet, who on occasion makes us reconsider being such a hateful old crank, EVEN THOUGH SHE CENSORED US. Unicorns and rainbows, our fucking ass. Heh.

UPDATE: The Rejectionist also wishes to announce her formal engagement to Keith Popely, unless Keith Popely is already her fiancé/e and she has forgotten, which would be embarrassing, but in that case, um, well, Keith Popely is EXTRA her fiancé/e.

My absolute favorite response is to Question 11. :)

I ALREADY READ THE INTERVIEW. That's how on top of things I am this morning.

Yes, I'm still in my pyjamas. You can all shut up.

And Tahereh will be a wonderful fiancee. Starting to wonder what the record is for simultaneous engagements... Guinness, anyone? Someone can give me the book to look it up. Or the drink. Either/Or.

Though, in truth, if you gave me a Kilkenny Cream Ale that would be even better. It might even inspire me to get out of my pyjamas.

You dodge questions better than Tiger Woods.

You mean you DIDN'T say "Unicorns and Rainbows"? :O

LOL!

I read it earlier. T H Mafi keeps the weirdest hours.

That was a fun interview. You should do MOAR. (I am suddenly very thankful that you do not have the superpowers of your choice.) ;-)

Now my brain is oddly trying to wrap itself around the image of Starship Troopers-like space marines on unicorns in the middle of a battle and thinking "this could be a cool SF cover!"
There would also be laserbeams shooting in all directions in the background, in all the colors of a rainbow.

Like. Wow. I am so calling it a day.

I just came from there. You BOTH totally rock! :-)

Unlike Ms. Mafi, I'd never censor you, good lady. Chances are pretty good that I'd paraphrase your interview responses in ways that amused me, but that's neither here nor there.

Tahereh said...

OMG WE ARE ENGAGED!!!

THIS IS EVEN BETTER THAN BEING BEST FRIENDS!!

*cries*

also: it is only ONE unicorn, and multiple rainbows. hence: unicorn & rainbows. that was not a typo, i'm afraid. BUT NO MATTER!!

WE ARE TO BE MARRIED!!!

I WILL DANCE TILL SUNDAY!!

hearts! more hearts! so many hearts!!

Ink, unless you're in Britain, I believe the word for sleeping clothes is spelled "pajamas." Tahereh, "till" is a verb that means to turn the earth during the process of farming or is a noun meaning a cash drawer. I believe you meant to write "'til." If you unicorning motherrainbows don't learn how to use proper unicorning grammar, I'm going to rainbow my unicorning rainbow up your rainbow. Got it?

GOOD GOD KEITH POPELY

Kieth, you're becoming one of my favorite people who comment. Just saying.

Yeeeah. A little bit in love with you, Keith Popely. Just sayin'.

Screaming awesome interview. And hi to your mom, Tahereh :)

Keith,

I'm Canadian, so I can spell things HOWEVER THE HELL I WANT. It's very freeing, really. Sometimes I just make stuff up, too, and pretend it's the Canuck way of doing things. Americans and Brits are very trusting of us, really. We're polite. But really pretty sly.

And yes, when you all blow yourselves up we will rule the world. Just sayin'.

Keith Popely said...

Ha! Thank you, ladies. You guys are fun. It's good to know you can roll with a joke.

Ink said...

Keith,

I hope you're not calling me a lady. My wife would be distraught.

May 5, 2010 5:17 PM
Mia said...

It's brilliant that you're getting married and all but I feel it is my duty to remind Tahereh she PROPOSED TO ME first *cough*I have twitter proof*cough*

Maybe I can have her on Tuesdays and Weekends or something? Kthnx :~)

Monogamy is so '90s anyway. I think you can all share each other.

Lydia Sharp said...

Haha. Joke-rolling is my middle name. Lydia Dawn Joke-Rolling Sharp. My parents were just THAT happy to bring me into the world. Or they thought I was a joke. Whichever.

Okay, but Ink is still my favorite (aside from Le R, of course), with Lucy and Laurel coming in at a close second, so I'm sorry, Keith, but that puts you in at third.

Remember our first comment war, Ink? Before Le R got all famous and stuff, and we had that nice running banter of Princess Bride quotes. Ah... good times. :)

Anybody want a peanut?

Ink said...

Now I'm hungry. My favourite thing is a nice MLT - mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe... they're so perky, I love that.

Lydia Sharp said...

Hee hee. :)

WE DO NOT THINK THAT PEANUT MEANS WHAT YOU THINK IT MEANS, MOBY COCK

May 6, 2010 10:40 AM
Ink said...

And where is Lucy? Has she not finished writing Moby Cock yet? I am a DEMANDING READERSHIP.

Lydia Sharp said...

OMG I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH YOU HAVE NO IDEA

Keith is EXTRA your fiancee? EXTRA? You're going to have an angry mob of brides/grooms-to-be on your hands. Just saying. I'll do my best to keep them off you, but I'm just ONE PERSON. No promises.

May 6, 2010 11:24 AM
Keith Popely said...

I'm also Extra Fancy. And achieving Le R's fiance/e status has been my highest aspiration. I'm tempted to, like George Kastanza, go out on a high note. But I guess I'll stick around.
