I
bugged your mom in her office for the last time...was fun.
[1:19
PM] Mr. Blue:
heh
[1:24
PM]
Will
be writing a new novel
"Title",
by "Whatsername"
[1:29
PM] Mr. Blue:
Who,
my mom?
[1:29
PM]
One
of us...not sure which
We
started talking about writing
She
"I think it's cool that we have someone who published here
and is promoting her book...uhhh... ..."
"You
mean Whatsername?"
"Yeah!"
"And
her book ... … called...?"
"Uhhh...
"
"No
idea either."
"I
wonder why that is."
"She's
not famous yet? If she or the book becomes famous, we'll be
able to say 'We knew Whatsername before she wrote...'Title'."
"LOL"
"That's
a great gimmick. One of us should write a book: 'Title' by
Whatsername. Sell a million. Every time no one can think
of a title or author they'll think of it."
"What's
it about?"
"It's about 'Story',
of course!"
[1:58
PM] Mr. Blue:
I
assume it's self published right?
[1:58
PM]
Whatsername's?
No, I think she got a real publisher.
I
recall looking it up and not being very interested in the pitch
[2:01
PM] Mr. Blue:
Zone
48 is shocked when an Opposition assassin begins mudering members of
the all powerful Council. Captain Montgomery Smails and Councilman
Geoffrey Alto set out to find the killer after Geoffrey's wife is
falsely named as an accessory. But the assassin - and the council
itself - are not what they seem. Neither, as it turns out, is Smail's
daughter.
1
rating - 5 out of 5 by definitely-not-the-author
[2:03
PM]
"Nor
is the janitor or the woman at the cafe what they seem. The All
Powerful Council - located at the All Powerful Council Building - has
been plagued by problems since the author started taking notes."
"Strategically
placed in The City - capital of The United Territories - the All
Powerful Council Building was built by The Builders exactly 1000
years ago."
[2:04
PM] Mr. Blue:
How
"all powerful" can they be if they're so easily killed?
"Wow!
I can't believe this character you just tagged for me on the back of
the paperback is not what she seems."
[2:08
PM]
Nor
is the Opposition assassin or the council. The apparent protagonist
is icing.
[2:09
PM] Mr. Blue:
see
that's why i could never write a book
I'm
just better at cutting down other people's work
[2:09
PM]
"Can
one angsty teen girl solve the Zone 48 mystery before it's too late
and I run out of pages? Well...no. I planned a trilogy of
course!"
“And
what is the secret reason the all powerful Council is in charge of
Zone 48 instead of Zone 1?”
[2:14
PM] Mr. Blue:
"You'll
have to read to find out!"
[2:19
PM] Mr. Brown:
I'm
a little lost here
lol
[2:20
PM]
Where?
[2:20
PM] Mr. Brown:
This
story thing
I'm
not sure who you're talking about. Or what
lol
[2:20
PM]
Someone
at Katzenjammer published a novel. And it wasn't me.
[2:20
PM] Mr. Brown:
Sounds
like you guys read it
[2:21
PM]
No.
Mr. Blue found the blurb on it and we were making fun of it.
[2:21
PM] Mr. Brown:
ah
So
you remember who wrote it?
[2:22
PM]
I
didn't...thus the "whatsername" conversation way up there.
[2:22
PM] Mr. Brown:
This
person still work here?
[2:29
PM] Mr. Blue:
I
think it's X
[2:31
PM] Mr. Brown:
(Amazon
book link)
Yes. There
are two books showing up.
[2:32
PM]
On
the other hand, she has two more than me out there...so brava!
[2:32
PM] Mr. Brown:
lol
So
the one for Zone 48 - did it reveal too much in the quick read or
something?
lol
So
I don't need to read it?
[2:34
PM]
Well...apparently
nothing is what it seems.
So
whatever opinion you form from the summary will be wrong anyway.
[9:11
AM]
“Escape
From New York” last night. Part of the lad's continuing
education.
[9:11
AM] Mr. Blue:
(y)
[9:11
AM]
"Whatcha
think?"
"Kinda
of scary real since I could see that happening."
Malcolm
showed symptoms of anthropology last night. Must be genetic.
"How'd
the Duke get to be in charge?"
"Because
he's a total badass, I think."
"Must
have the largest gang."
"Except
the Crazies, but I don't know if you can call them a gang."
"I
wonder how many gangs there are."
"Well...there's
room for millions of prisoners, technically."
"Could
be a lot. Wonder how they are getting supplies."
[9:23
AM] Mr. McGreen:
or
he'll be one of those guys that obsesses over a certain movie and
comes up with crazy elaborate theories
he'll
have a couple of those cork boards with photos and articles connected
by string
The
actress from that movie is hotter as an old lady than she was then.
[9:26
AM] Mr. Blue:
Adrienne
Barbeau?
Director's
wife
[9:26
AM] Mr. McGreen:
yeah
[9:27
AM] Mr. Blue:
She
was in "The Thing" as the voice of the computer
[9:27
AM] Mr. McGreen:
I
always thought that computer was sexy...
Her
hair was awful
But
now as an old lady shes with the times
Rrraaaaaooowwww
[9:46
AM]
Thought
so...looked up to be sure.
Jamie
Lee Curtis is uncredited as the narrator and prison announcer at the
beginning.
[9:48
AM] Mr. Blue:
Ahh
I'm
good with voices but never noticed
[9:49
AM]
All
the couple dozen times I saw it in part or full, I didn't catch her
til last night
[9:56
AM] Mr. McGreen:
I
feel like Russel could still play Snake
[10:25
AM]
(Scene
opens...Maximum security retirement home...camera advances through
crowd to focus on Snake Plissken, playing Snakes and Ladders with
Rambo)
"Yo, I saved that kitten's ass. I'm goin' up up up dis ladder."
(Antihero rasp) "Oh
no... I'm going down,
down, down..."
"Ey,
you steal MY cookies and break MY jar, you're goin' down, Snake."
[9:41
AM]
This
company's hold music sounds like the sort of soundtrack you'd get in
a town in Final Fantasy on NES
[9:42
AM] Mr. Blue:
Yesterday
I called a client's office and the hold music was conservative talk
radio
at
a deafening volume.
"Let
me get the settings, hold on a second."
"Okay."
"THOSE
LIBERAL YAHOOS WANNA COME INTO YOUR HOME AND TAKE YOUR GUNS!"
[9:43
AM]
Please.
It's YER
[10:18
AM]
Speaking
of violence and the good old days:
(as
we have recently)
"As
depicted in the 80s film "Oxford Bruise" starring Rob
Lowe."
[10:30
AM] Mr. Blue:
So
there are about 20 countries with murder rates higher than Medieval
England
You'd
still be safer in 1300s Oxford than modern day El Salvadore
[10:36
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Someone
in Receivable is from San Salvadore, i think they were the murder
capital of the world at one point
Is
that the same place tho? I keep reading and it looks interchangeable
No,
i'm just stupid. San is the capital of El
[10:40
AM]
El
Salvador... The Savior
San
Salvador... Saint Savior?
Sans
Salvador... No one can save you.
Comic
Sans Salvador... No one can save this font
My...uh...sister
thinks I have Asperger’s for some reason...
[8:13
AM]
So
considering it's looking like everything in the embarrassing Trump
dossier is proving to be true as the claims are checked out...does
this mean that one day school kids will get to read about the Trump's
Russian pee party in their history class?
[8:17
AM] Mr. McGreen:
(music)
“I don't want no Trump, a Trump is a guy who cant get no votes from
me...”
[8:34
AM]
"Tweeting
from the President side of his dad's free ride...try'n to blame all
on me?”
[8:34
AM] Mr. Blue:
lol
[8:35
AM] Mr. McGreen:
Perfect,
i was stuck
[8:39
AM]
"No...
I don't want yer 'Merica.
“No... I
don't wanna give you mine, and ...
“No...
I don't wanna coddle the alt-right.
“No...
I don't want none of your whine."
