LOL, thanks for reading! :D

MERRY SLAPSMAS!!! This was excellent, from start to finish :)

You need this more than you need a suit

Blasphemy! There is nothing anyone needs more then a suit, except perhaps a fine cigar and a scotch, while already wearing a suit.

Thanks! I'm so glad you liked it. It was ridiculously fun to write. :D

Word. All I can figure is Ted must really stink. ;)

I'm in no way familiar with this series but loved this anyway, lol!

You can immediately tell what these two characters are like---you're awesome, as always.

I'm going to be an enabler. You need to watch this show. Go to to http://www.cbs.com/primetime/how_i_met_your_mother/ and start watching episodes. And then go watch Big Bang Theory http://www.cbs.com/primetime/big_bang_theory/

Mondays on CBS FTW!

What would I do without you?

My life would be so dull...

Thanks for the links!

My life would be so dull...

Ha! Loved it! That was perfect. It's just like Barney to get all lyrical about cologne, isn't it? ;)

Oh, and the Slapsmas bit at the end was priceless. Thanks so much!

Thank YOU for a great plot bunny! I'm really glad you liked it. :D

Ok, I need to know.....How many more slaps does Marshall have left? Al I can remember is Slapsgiving and the slap when Barney did some one man play?

bratanimus January 10 2009, 15:48:07 UTC

I can't remember; I think he has five total. There's Slapsgiving, the one-man play slap, and then there the slap countdown (remember when Marshall put up a website -- it was real, and it has since become a fan forum -- lol).

I'm disturbed that they haven't even MENTIONED the slap bet this season!! I want more slaps!!!! ;) But if there are five total, and there have been three so far, then we still get two more. I hope I'm right.

Thanks for reading my drabble. :D
