Can one of you creative and/or intelligent folk please kindly help with something?

I need to find a good reason why my cupboards conspire such that, when I need to buy tea, I also need to buy crumpets.

It's clearly leprechauns.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

There's a pot of crumpets at the end of the rainbow?

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Why not? They're uh, goldish, aren't they?

*snerk*

Leprechaun: You know, your crumpets are a kind of gold-ish colour.
Random person: They were on sale.
Leprechaun: You didn't toast! You know, I'm thinking you're one of them. Crumpet-eatin' folk.
Random person: And I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling. So why don't we just ignore each other till we go away?
Leprechaun: Crumpet-eaters are a bunch of cowardly tea drinkers shoulda been killed off a every world spinnin'.
Random person: Say that to my face.
Leprechaun: I said, you're a coward and a tea drinker. Now what're you gonna do about it?
Random person: Nothing. I just wanted you to face me so she could nick the pot.

Heheheh. It figures, I was thinking about goldfish and you come up with something awesome like that.

On that topic, how is le Serenity RPG going? What's happening?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

It'll be going soon-ish. Offhand, there's not a hge amount more that needs doing beforehand - but I think it'll be nice to wait for the NaNoFolk to get back to normal before doing too much more.

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Er. Thanks for reminding me, I am a NaNoFolk :P I'm just not entertaining any hope of finishing it in time - maybe in a few years when I have some motivation and stuff. Also, it turns out starting from scratch on the first day works for short stories but not for novels. When I do eventually finish this it will need a complete rewrite or three.

They're British cupboards?

"Allo allo allo. What do you think you're making?"

Joss moves in mysterious ways.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Joss needs a religious text. Instead of testaments and books, it can have seasons and episodes.

"And so we read from the Book of Joss, Season Two, Episode Seven, Scene Four..."

You have clearly answered it yourself, though you may not know it. you simply have to look at your icon.
Space monekys.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Your icon just slayed me.

[nekoama.livejournal.com]

XD thanks.

I suspect your cupboards are eating the crumpets when you are not around. Have they gained a lot of weight recently?

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

They don't seem to have, but then I don't go picking them up much.

And they're stuck to my wall.

[leila82.livejournal.com]

I suppose they're still fitting in all their cupboard-wear, then. Perhaps they just hide the weight gain better.

Or perhaps your dogs have colluded with the cupboards and are eating the crumpets while you are out.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

Murphy does know how to open the door.

[leila82.livejournal.com]

I think we have our first suspect then. You should check to see if his breath smells like crumpet.

[theshadowlurker.livejournal.com]

I blame the mushrooms.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

...

I'm sure there's a whole big line of reasoning there, and it's just entirely vanished from the world the rest of us share. :)

[theshadowlurker.livejournal.com]

No! You are not worthy of knowing The Secrets of the Mushrooms.

[salzara-tirwen.livejournal.com]

River did it.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

I don't think so. All my canned goods still have labels on.

[salzara-tirwen.livejournal.com]

They're actually the wrong labels.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

My very own mystery meals. Wheee!

(can't I just have River instead?)

[salzara-tirwen.livejournal.com]

sure, if I can have Simon.

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

I think we can arrange that.

...

*sneakily takes Kaylee, too. And Zoe.*

*shags snags Jayne while you aren't looking*

[active-apathy.livejournal.com]

You can have Jayne. *nodnod*
