Metasyntactic Variables: Monday

Monday

Tim: "People never think of ninjas relaxing in front of the tube with their feet up, eating pretzels and watching Beaches or something. Ninjas are too often stereotyped as killers, I think."

Tracy: "I find it hard to believe that ninjas do that shit. It's not a job, dude. It's more of a lifestyle."

Tim: "I don't know- maybe back in the day it was like that, but it's probably different, now. The need for dental coverage and eye exams and whatnot."

Tracy: "Pretty sure you don't become a ninja because of the benefits."

Tim: "I think they also get free Kraft service at the clubhouse."

Tracy: "Lies. LIES."

Tim: "Ninjas love Kraft service."

Tracy: "You are delusional, although Kraft is good."

Tim: "Now you are thinking like a ninja, dude. Well done."

When I was a Ninja I watched reality programming 15 1/2 hours a day, the other 15 were spent kicking ass between naps and crying jags over cereal. What, you didn't know Ninjas get extra hours in THEIR days? Or maybe that was when I was in the "padded room" themed hotel.

Nope, I'm pretty sure I was a Ninja!

Where do you get your watches, IS? Now I want a 15 hour ninja watch. My normal watch is an underachiever.

This is just proof that I am a ninja, Gwen- my collection of Strawberry Shortcake DVDs.

Sweet.

I saved up my Ovaltine bar codes, or was that to get my secret decoder? I'm not sure, but they are both certified as pieces of Ninja Approved Gear!!! I take the NAG seal of approval very seriously, as I am sure you do.

Tim: "What's a really uncommon name for nonsense? That could make a good title."

Tracy: "Metasyntactic Variables."

Tim: "Holy Shit, that's brilliant. Are those actual words?"

Tracy: "Yes. When I am writing and suddenly the sentence turns into woss-names and blabbity, I am defaulting to metasyntactic variables."

Tim: "That was pretty impressive. Is that too wordy of a blog title, do you think?"

Tracy: "Not really, but we'll have to keep explaining it to people."

Tim: "Not if I put this conversation in the sidebar."

Tracy: "Go for it."

Tim: "Sweet."

Tim was born on the Deathstar. For the most part, his early years were pretty sweet- mostly because he had a lot of robots. Then, one morning, Tim was trying to get a piece of English muffin out of the toaster with a knife, and a jolt of electricity sent him back in time to the jungles of Mozambique. Soon after, he met Tracy, who was not a robot, but Tim liked her despite this. Even though the food was not up to Deathstar quality, life was enjoyable until the great circus monkey rise-up of 2010. Then life sucked donkey balls. Tim's days now consist of practicing the art of the Ninja-Bee way, and texting Tracy in code from his cave on the opposite side of the country.

Sometimes he also plays Backgammon with the hobos, but he does not tell Tracy about that.
