Why do you want to exercise the junk in our leader's room? All you will do is make the junk faster and harder to catch. No, what we want to do is let the junk become fat, flabby, and slow so it can be easily caught and thrown out!

I told you that we should have kept emergency hydrants on hand in Yggdrasil! But did anyone listen?! NOPE!

Not sure.. how often do you clean? I clean my room once a month.. and by clean I just take out the trash and beers cans.. I haven't dusted in over two years.. might be why I have so many spiders in here..

Oh .... GREAT.

I have completed the plotting of coordinates!!

The remaining points make up perfect copies of that chunk reflected over the prime meridian and equator.

Tomorrow, I begin a huge game of connect-the-dots, to complete the template. Today, I have a friend's wedding to go to.

Shh! Spoilers!

The Issue

After one of your recent speeches included an accidental spoiler for the bestselling novel Hexicon, angry librarians, teenagers, and fantasy aficionados have completely surrounded your office in protest. After a hard day's work, you have agreed to meet with the protesters, if only so that you can get out of the building.

The Debate

"Speeches, not spoilers!" chants your teenage niece, who has been leading the protest. "Look, I'm trying to be a good citizen here, paying attention to what's going on around me, but if you're going to spoil something that I haven't even had chance to read, then I'm not going to bother! If you really need to talk about stuff that isn't politics in your speeches, at least warn us about it! Sure, it might look a bit silly, but who cares? This is almost as bad as when I was told that Planet of the Fairies was Yggdrasil all along!"

"Can't these people get a life?" asks your visibly tired speechwriter Virginia Han, who has been shredding hate mail all day. "Simply say something appeasing, then carry on your business as you normally would. Honestly, I wish I had the free time to read; then I'd finally find out why everyone keeps getting so upset about this Dumbledore business. Besides, wouldn't referencing pop culture make you 'cool' and 'with it', as the kids are saying these days?"

"Who cares what 'rosebud' meant, or who was the real Caesar So-say? There's more to life than fiction," observes your always serious Finance Minister Ali McKay, who is known around the office as a total buzzkill. "What's important here is that you've given a lot, and I mean a lot of publicity to that hack of an author, and he hasn't paid us a single cent! Maybe if people are going to care so much about what you talk about in those speeches of yours, we should be getting companies to pay for the privilege of being mentioned. Sure, some may call it 'bribery' and 'unethical', but there's no such thing as free advertising."

"Spoilers must be banned!" wails George JK Token, the beloved and bearded fantasy author of Hexicon and the popular A Play of Crowns series. "It's of no coincidence that mere days after you spoiled my book, it fell from its number one position on the Ÿivkåvkövkum Times best seller list. Spoilers greatly harm the publishing and entertainment industries. Nobody wants to bother with something if they know how it ends! I urge you to make it illegal to spoil. If you don't, well, then I just might have to kill off Aya Lark in the next Play of Crowns book, seeing how she's your favorite character."

I swear the issues I get just keep getting weirder and weirder.

The most rudest thing happened to me today. I was eating at an outdoor restaurant and suddenly a lady came and sat at my table. I thought she was just waiting for her food but then another lady sat right across from me. Then a kid squeezed in right next to me and then their whole fricken family came over to the table and I am just looking(but didn't say anything) at these people like "WTF are you doing at my table?" Then they started yelling at me. "It's not right you get your own table! This is a public space! You didn't buy this table! You are so rude!" Then I try to tell them it's not proper etiquette to invite yourself to a stranger's table without even asking them. Then they act as if I'm the bad guy. I was so mad I couldn't even hold my chopsticks steady as these people are trying to bully me off my table. I purposely ate slowly to get back at them. I should have manned up and swore and yelled at them but I'm too much of a little sissy. This is why I hate leaving my room and interacting with humans!

Nah, that's the better way to do it. It shows you won't dignify them with a response, while at the same time you get under their skin by dragging out their patience as long as possible.

Not sure what would possess them to sit at an occupied table, shouldn't there be an empty table somewhere in the restaurant you ate at? Or at least have a waiter be with them?

Now that is completely unacceptable public behavior. Why were these people allowed to have children? Free society? To what extent?

I am sorry this happened to you, NeoPacificus. I hope for you a great week ahead.

What you should have done is protect your territory by belching and farting loudly. That would have ran them off.

In the end you don't need to swear and shout at them since afterall they can use it against you, and a lot more things could have gone down, you kinda did the right~ish thing because you were the one who acted proper and civil. What you could have done when they asked you if you bought the table was asked the same question to them and (to continue of from there) answer them "If I'm rude then who is the one screaming at some person who was rightfully here in the 1st place". Well Then again they tried to scare you off, and you held your ground that's what is important. (Why do people like them with such a horrible attitude get to pro-create and live long? Just a question tho)

That is why, people of my kind, there exist something called "delivery food" so we wouldn't encounter these kinds of people. We only ever go outside if it's really important. But seriously that was very rude indeed. Here, they would've been driven out for public scandal or better yet, banned for life.

Cheer up NeoPacificus! *gives internet hugs*

In what way? There is no criminal or civil code against swearing or shouting.

People should be nice enough to ask first.. like they do at my workplace.

Situations like this I just say "do you want me to scar your child for life?"
They usually leave after some screaming.

To be honest, I learned at an early age that the bullies target the easy, but they never target crazy. Someone tries I just start wobbling and go all wild eyed, slur my speech and then do something completely unexpected, like ask what they want on their funeral; butter or toast?

If I read correctly...they were making him look like the "villain" so....they would use it even more so against him and maybe get the public to use it against him too
