Of course. Who doesn't?

The people who were trying to assassinate you somewhere in the backlog.

No, I'm sure they do, too. I think they just didn't want to admit it.

They must have done it for a bet or a dare.

Yeah, if I had a quarter for all the people I've tried to assassinate on a dare I'd...Well...Let's see...There was...No, that wasn't me, but...Then...Well, I'd have something, I'm sure...

Well, you'd have at least a quarter.


I hate to interrupt

Arthbard

Yeah. I'd have more if I counted all the times I've assassinated myself.

Researcher 185550

Yeah but the quarter's gotta come from somewhere, so the fee for trying to assassinate you's gotta be a quarter.

Arthbard

Only a quarter? Geez...I thought I'd be worth a couple of bucks at least.

Oh don't worry. Lots of people want to kill you. You'll make loads of money.

Good point. Besides, quarters aren't so bad. I can use them to play arcade games and stuff.

Yeah. See? Every shroud- er, cloud, has a silver lining.


I hate to interrupt

Post 373

Arthbard

What? Why would a cloud need a silver lining? It wouldn't know what to do with it.


I hate to interrupt

Post 374

Researcher 185550

If I was a cloud I'd know what to do with it. I'd sell it. And I'd be a pretty big cloud, so I'd have a pretty big silver lining. I'd be the richest cloud in the world.

Arthbard

But if you were a cloud, and you sold your silver lining, then you wouldn't have your siler lining, anymore, so the whole every cloud having a silver lining thing would be completely inaccurate, unless, of course, the loss of the silver lining means you no longer technically qualify as a cloud.

Researcher 185550

Correct. So I'd be the richest... um, I'd be rich. Very.


I hate to interrupt

Post 377

Arthbard

Yes. You'd be rich, but you'd be lonely. All of the other clouds would shun this non-silver-line-having freak of nature. You'd be an outcast. Clouds would point and laugh. At least the ones shaped like fingers or arrows would point. I'm not sure about the others. I haven't heard any laugh, but some of them might.

Researcher 185550

Well, I'd found a new cloud society! I'd found it on the basic principles of Truth, Freedom, Justice, Love, and a Hard- Boiled Egg! And the other clouds could see how they like /that/.


I hate to interrupt

Post 379

Arthbard

They wouldn't. And they'd point and laugh more.

Yur, but I'd have risen above that. I could sneer at them in disgust at their crudeness.
