When the Trolls Cry

[catscradle]

Ever get to that point where you're just finished? I mean, that's it. Done. Not going there anymore. I'm at that point. On so many levels, I am done. Work, school, politics. There's only so many times you can participate in something that makes about as much sense as chopping off your legs before going on a hiking expedition before you just have to stop and reconsider those instructions.

Dear Stephanie,

We've decided that today you need call a list of people with no money, no job, little in the brain department and no means for funds for higher education and ask them why they haven't enrolled in winter quarter classes yet. After that, find out why the Liberal Studies program is failing and don't try to tell us again that it's because we don't actually offer classes in it. There's no reason a detail like that should be a problem. Once you've single-handedly restore the program to it's original glory, we will promptly rip it from you and resume our responsibility and credit for it's success.

You may want to revise chapter 2 of your thesis back to the way you originally had it before we got our hands on it. Turns out it was fine the way it was. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We have a copy of the State of the Union Address and the Iowa Caucus media coverage. We'd like you to review that whilst maintaining your last shred of sanity. It will only hurt a little. We suggest you not look directly at the TV and use protective glasses.

Finally, we've noticed that you've been ignoring the fandom wankage going on recently and you're beginning to concern us with your lack of participation. Remember, pretentious, asshole-ishness cannot continue in a vacuum. You've been warned.

Warm regards,

The Trolls

Finished. Done. The End. Don't. Care.

I also have to admit that I thought the letter was going to be signed "Warm regards, The Clouds".

I was thinkinng of the clouds, actually. But I just couldn't bring myself to include anything vaguely Mater related into the mix of absurdity already being experienced. What with her being so removed lately, why borrow trouble? Also, the clouds are a cover for insane troll logic. Don't let the fluff fool you. It bores right through.

Take care and invest in tin foil. From now on, you're all on your own. I've bartered passage on a elf ship heading west.

There are times when it seems both sane and polite to 'beat folk with a stick' cept I wouldn't want you to go to prison for demonstrating you have distinction and taste.

*hugs again*

I'm not altogether sure that the folks who believe all violence can be avoided are correct in their idealism. There have been many the times violence has solved issues and I think a good dose of "This is going to hurt you more than it does me" would do this world an ounce of good measure.

Thanks, Willow. What I really need now is a good stick.
