There's only a handful of you, and you're acting like obsessed lunatics.

I honestly wouldn't want to ever be washed up on the shore unconscious on an island run by you lot.

Damn, it's too bad that places isn't working out, at least you got out of the other place though.

In other news, I'm handing in my notice this Thursday, though I plan to work here until the Xmas holidays.

Life is too short to work at a job you don't like.

Yeah, well, I just had this image of a yiff-tard sitting at home saying "How can I be MORE otherkin than that bastard Jim?  I can't afford a full suit like he has, and my standing among my peers has been significantly lowered.  My mating prospects are at stake, here.  WAIT!  I HAVE IT!"

And then he shits on the carpet.

Sounds perfectly plausible to me.  Dragonkin are pretty common.  Unhouse-trained dragonkin, on the other hand....well, you're onto a winner there.

He is a proud and noble beast, who does his business where he pleases.

I imagine this guy is beating the women off with a stick.

Absolutely.

And worst comes to worst, I have savings.  I'll make it through to next year no problem (uh, 2015, I mean).  I may be broke by the time I'm done with this course, but I'll be broke with much better prospects.  You can't go up from Housemaster...not without teaching qualifications, anyway.

And if you're too busy being housemaster, you can't do anything to get out of it.

Ballsy move, Cain.  Well done.

A sticky brown stick?

Depends.  Is he Spanky-sized?  If so, then yes.

From now on, if I post a serious thread and Holist shows up, I will be asking for a thread split immediately.  If one isn't possible, I'll just abandon the thread.

Most likely for the best.  Existential windbags are not usually welcome.  At parties or other places in human society.

Yeah, well, anything he touches turns into Holist declaiming his own virtues and splitting hairs until he isn't wrong.

Why the fuck put any effort into anything if he's just going to make it all about him?

I haven't had a dry spell, writing-wise, like this in ages.

I wish to write, but there's nothing there.

Is your brain occupied with other things? I find that my ability to write really declines at the start of a term or when I'm taking an introductory course and I'm assimilating a lot of new vocab/info.

No, I think it's that my brain is occupied with the transition from real smokes to e-cigs, which has left me a little spaced and irritable.

Also, my general stress level is in decline.
