May 9

 

Before I start I have to say that yesterday someone very special to me sent a truly important question, and so, I feel obliged to respond in the most serious manner. So, without further ado:

 

Dear Greki,

Regarding to your question sent this past yesterday (May 8th, 2009) to… yourself, which goes something like this:

“Hey there, Me! Here’s Myself writing! Unfortunately I couldn’t get in contact with I and—wait! Just did, so… never mind. Anyway, Myself speaking, I was very curious about something. Did you notice, Me, that my sister, Chutkat, got more than 50 marriage proposals in the very same day? Well, Myself and I were just wondering: How does it feel like to have so many prospective siblings-in-law?”

Well Myself and I, here’s what Me has to say:

I’m still waiting for the money.

And that’s all I have to declare for now, but, oh--!

 

Note for Chutkat: There’s nothing to worry about. That was just something I still had to solve… MYSELF! Sooo, don’t worry. It’s not like I said I’d sell all of your secrets to any prospective sibling-in-law that paid Me $50 for them, no sir, not at all! So, anyway, there’s nothing interesting further here for you to read, sist-ah, so just go on and continue with your normal daily activities while I stay here to do some little businesses Myself still has unfinished, okay?

…..

………..

………………………

…Did she leave?

I not sure, Myself, let Me check…

……

…Seems so…

………

…Yep, coast clear, I!

Oh good.

On to business then:

So, okay, okay. You win, people. I’ll cut the deal in half. 25 bucks! No more, no less. This is my last offer, I tell ya! First one up front shall even receive a bonus! Chutkat’s photos in all her undignified-glory! Oh yes, people! Believe it! First one up front will get that nice bonus, and… you know? I’m feeling generous. Second offer will get the whole list of the hair-care products she uses! Unbelievable but true! You’ll get that nice, wild, rebellious, disheveled, zombie-look-alike look that you’d all like to mimic! Oh yes, people, indeed!

 

So… up to the offer?

Greki

Dear Anonymous,

Regarding to your question sent this past… Oh! Yesterday as well (May 8th, 2009), which goes something like this:

 

The zebras are black with white strips or white with black strips?

 

I have one thing to say:

Do I look like a zebra or something?

 

Anyway, I can assure you I’m not a zebra, whoever gave you that idea is sure nuts, and since I’m not a zebra I don’t talk… Zebreze, so I certainly can’t go into any safari and ask them, zebras, myself.

With this in mind, I have to go by other means…

Scientifically speaking… RESEARCH!

 

Okay, here’s the thing:

Albino Zebras.

Ohh yeah.

…What better way to see if Zebras are black with white strips, or white with black strips?

 

Albino people/animals’ skin lacks natural pigmentation, which is, in essence, their skin color.

So, that means that their skin color is a light one.

 

Sooo… here’s what a normal Zebra looks like:

Ohhh, look at that! All black and white.

Hmm… even the tongue and teeth are black… I wonder what it’d feel like to have a black tongue…

 

Anyway, back to track.

Soo, in order to know the correct answer lets see now an albino Zebra!

…..

………….

…Is it just me or something other than the color changed?

…Hmm… Oh! Whoops, sorry, got the wrong kind of zebra. ^^;;

Err, here’s the right one:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e3/Blondzebra.jpg

Yep, a gorgeous zebra, all right! Equipped with creepy eyes and everything!

 

Anyway, so we can observe that the parts which used to be black have lightened up into some sort of light brown-ey color, while the white parts stayed just the same.

Which… in a nutshell, it means that Zebras are indeed black with white strips.

 

Anyway, unfortunately for you, I just made you lose your time. :D

You could have just checked the mouth and the inside of the ears to know their color. X3

He he he, my apologies… NOT!

MWAHAHAHA!

 

Soo, take care!

Have fun!

See ya!

Greki

Dear Anonymous,

Regarding to your question sent this past… today? Ohh, nice! (Today’s May 9, 2009, for those who don’t know) which goes something like this:

What is the meaning of the world “eldritch”???

 

I have to say one thing:

How the heck am I supposed to know the meaning of a whole world?!

Are you insane? I mean, seriously people! I’m not God! I didn’t create life, the universe and everything! I know that you know that I know that I know the answer to life, the universe and everything, but that doesn’t entitle me to know the meaning of a darn world I never even heard of!!!!

And to your knowledge, young man/woman, I have to----!

……

………

…oh, it was a small technical problem…

…Okay, I apologize for my outburst…

Anyway, so, dear Anonymous didn’t mean “world”, he/she meant “word”.

 

So… I still dunno what it means.

Here, let me search….

…Hmm…

Apparently in the past it was used to describe strange people the came from the Otherworld…

…Or from a strange country.

So, I’d say the equivalent for it today would be something along the lines of weirdo, freak, crackpot, case, eccentric, fruitcake, nutcase, odd bird, misfit, screwball, demon, imp, elf, fiend, hellion, minx, pixie, and ohh, this one’s good, puck, rascal, rogue, scamp, troll, tyke… and others.

So, yeah, that’s basically what it means.

 

Anyway, thanks for the question!

Have fun!

Greki
