Holy crap. I spotted you on Teh Spotlight, and… I think this is just about the greatest thing I’ve ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes on. I own SMeyer’s first book, but I’ve never read it (I only know the ins and outs of the plot courtesy of my manically obsessed and fanatical friends), so I was unsure if I would get the full comedic effect, but let me tell you…

“The crowd went completely apeshit. Every alien in the joint was leaping up, tentacles flailing, flippers slapping indiscriminately against other flippers, shrieking a weird shreiky noise. The girl-slaves imitated their alien masters, flinging their arms about, hitting me in the face.”

Hilarity ensued, the majority of which had something to do with my spitting chocolate milk all over my keyboard and cat (because, of course, cats love to obnoxiously plop themselves down on the most convenient surfaces). And the word “tallybonkers” has a Douglas Adams sort of feel. Mm, homey. Ah, perhaps it’s a bit like Slartibarfast. Well, regardless of whatever I’m trying to say, now I ( ... )

Oh, yes, I almost forgot. Now I’m going to jump on the bandwagon and friend you. Just because, you know, you are so unfathomably über.

I am so with you on the cat thing.

And oh my goodness, I am almost hesitant to accept a Douglas Adams reference. He is what I can only hope in the deepest part of my soul to one day be. And Slartibartfast is totally my favorite name ever.

Thank you!

Amazed, impressed, enthused. Laughed, cried, swore. Laughed so hard that milk came out of my nose, but I was drinking root beer.

Holy Crap. This is some funny, funny stuff. I sure hope you don't kill Frig in some horribly brutal fashion.

I am super impressed by this.

And I wasn't planning on killing off Frig, but now that you mention it...*plots deviously*

Or something to that effect, anyway.
