Holiday Tip that works 'cause um yeah, it was tested. It works.

Holiday Tip: Interrupt any family argument with:

“I will take it! I will take the ring to Mordor. Though I do not know the way."


Hope you are having a Merry Christmas.

Alternately, announce you're gay and moving to san Francisco. Hehe.

Sometimes at work when people call my name I reply "there is no Mary, there is only Zuuuuul".

Very few people get the movie reference.

I got glow in the dark pjs for Christmas, they read - 'I'm afraid of no ghost'!!! *__^

'I'm afraid of no ghost'!!!

Is there a word left out of that sentence or was it that a ghost was cheerfully anticipated or that the person is a necromancer?

You jest surely? Can it be you don't know the song?
Ghostbusters :D bought the second dvd the other week as not seen it in an age.

You're not saying it properly. *grins* Didn't translate well into British?

The line is: "I ain't afraid of no ghosts!"

All righty. That was me not logged in and responding from my email.

double negatives - having slept on (and in the pjs) I realise my error and shamefully apologise - hubby is laughing at me, cat is looking superior. Try not to laugh too loudly! :p ;)

*pats you* There is only an amused fond smile.

You're far nicer about it than hubby, he's likely still shaking his head now!

How could people NOT catch the "there is only Zuuuuul" reference? It's iconic!
You work with people who have no soul. *grins*

Are you the gatekeeper?

She could well be, she lives way the hell and away from both of us.

She's stealthy like one expects of a ninja. She stealths in and leaves wondrous small fics for us to follow.

Thanks for the tip! Will try. It will probably end as a new argument "no, I want to go to Mordor!" *grins*

Merry Christmas!

It was used again today. *grins* Still worked.

Ah, for your household then the response should be, "I'll provide you with a map." They're too young to appreciate the frustrated humor in that, but it might redirect the conversation?
