The Monster in Your Pocket is Cuddly, Evil, and Itching for Action!
 

What is the genesis of "Didn't you get the memo?" Is it from Office Space or is it a Chandler Bingism?

You know, I think I got a memo about that just last week. Let me see if I can find it (since you obviously didn't get it).

I can loan you a book if you really want to know.

But you don't really want to know. For you will shamble and gibber when you feel Great Cthulhu fumbling at the latch to your consciousness.

Burning Ethics Question of the Day
 

http://slate.msn.com/id/2088982/


Dear Prudence,
I have a friend, Kathryn, who is a post-op transsexual (she was once a he) and appears by most standards as an attractive female. However, Kathryn is currently dating a man who does not know about her past. (She told me she'll tell him when she's sure he loves her.) Fred is a nice straight man who I think should've known about Kate's secret a few months ago. Kate is an old friend (from high school) whom I stuck by through all the trials and pain she endured. Now I feel like an accomplice to a huge lie. Do I tell Fred? Do I wait for Kate? It's a strange problem, and I have no one to ask. HELP!!

—Questioning Friend

Dear Quest,
"M. Butterfly" and a few details notwithstanding, Straight Fred will most likely discover "the secret" on his own. And you are in no way an accomplice unless the three of you are, um, in love. You have no standing in this matter, as it were. Kate may learn, the hard way, that "forgetting" a gender change is not in the same category as omitting the fact that one had a brief, annulled marriage, for example. Unfortunate reality: If you, Kate, and Fred are all in the same town where you two "girls" went to high school, the secret is a cherry bomb waiting to explode. It has been Prudie's experience that you can warn a friend once, maybe twice, and then you must step back.

—Prudie, historically



Advice for "questioning friend," anyone?

Sure, shit like this - and Vulcan and Elvish and all that other geeky schtick - you can spell

But take a simple word like lose or calendar and you muck it all up. It truly boggles the mind.

We have no verification she spelled those words correctly. Does that make you feel better?

I believe it's from Bob Newhart's standup act from the 60's.

Geez, what is it with you kids? You think everything under the sun was created by your generation?


Oh fuck. I'm turning into Bilmore.

Always good advice, but tends to put Ann and Abby out of business.

Um, bc I only started hearing "Didnt you get the memo" about five years ago or so, and I dont think thats bc I always got memos before that. This leads me to blieve that the guy or gal who puts the words into Chandler Bing's mouth stole it.

Oh, shit. "Post-oper
ative transexual" is
nine syllables long.


According to Atticus, this isn't really a haiku because Shinto priests are aesthetically opposed to sex-change operations, and because as the dawn arrives, the fog swirls around the cedars, [and] I can't keep up with his brain. And he should know, because he spend several years after college in a geisha exchange program. But, whatever.
