Just a couple of things.

-I'm turning 25 on Monday and it seems like the kind of thing you should do something for. I was going to invite people to the pool until some things happened, but now I don't want to, so. I'm going to be at the Inkwell and will accept all birthday congratulations, gifts, and complaints about how grey water is super weird.

Anyone can come, it's not like I run the bar. Unless you're that guy that threatened me, you have to stay at least ten feet away from me at all times.

[Water being grey now is not actually why the pool party is being called off, but it makes an excellent excuse.]

-Does anyone have any advice about explaining your sudden changes in behavior to people who know you really well but don't know what's going on with Retrospec? I can't not talk to my parents.

i told him i'd kill him.

[doublesmall]

you can't just SAY that to people

[stopbleeding]

i say it to you all the time.

[doublesmall]

yeah, but I know you

you have to admit you look pretty intimidating to the more sensitive types

[stopbleeding]

that just means they should toughen up.

[doublesmall]

toughen up the ones who aren't regulars of mine.

[stopbleeding]

you mean the ones who don't flatter you.

[doublesmall]

is that really too much to ask, though

[stopbleeding]

what? for me to flatter you?

[doublesmall]

I mean, would it kill you once in a while?

but no. just don't scare off the ones who do, it's good for my ego and my mood and therefore good for all of you.

[stopbleeding]

yeah right. if your ego gets any bigger you'd have trouble walking through the door.

[doublesmall]

don't worry, I have plenty of room before that's a problem. it's just got to grow upwards.

[stopbleeding]

i could make a short joke but i'm not. give me a raise for my sacrifice.

[doublesmall]

I made it for you, that's not exactly a huge sacrifice on your part

[stopbleeding]

so you want me to say it.

[doublesmall]

that's absolutely not what I said.

[stopbleeding]

should i put one of those height charts on the wall? that way we can mark your growth. make you feel like a bigger man.

[doublesmall]

don't think I won't kick your ass out if you do

[stopbleeding]

you'd kick me out over your height but not for threatening your regs.

bad for the yelp page boss.

[thesettingsun]

I already gave five stars and I'm not taking them back!

[stopbleeding]

shut up.

[thesettingsun]

You can't make me shut up on my own post.

[doublesmall]

I might if you kept threatening them.

or if you meant it.

[stopbleeding]

you're gonna ruin my reputation.

[doublesmall]

whatever will your poor ego do

maybe it's not mine we should worry about here.
