Well, you've read the notes, the notes had running gags, and now it is time for you to post until the running cows come home.

And the word of the day is: REPINE!

Aside from kiss my ASS, one of my favorite runners was LIMBO! Those few crazy nights when we had a full compliment of late-night denizens posting up a silly storm - one of those nights I think we did ten pages before two in the morning.

Welcome eight GUESTS.

bk · « **Reply #4 on:** March 25, 2008, 12:40:51 AM »

Who ARE you people?

Matthew · « **Reply #5 on:** March 25, 2008, 12:44:07 AM »

First non-bk post. And if anyone has a problem with that, they can kiss my grits!

bk · « **Reply #6 on:** March 25, 2008, 12:55:19 AM »

Certainly I have no problem with it, so your grits are safe.

bk · « **Reply #7 on:** March 25, 2008, 12:55:49 AM »

Make that twelve GUESTS. I guess that's a running gag.

And, once again, it is TEDIOUS for people to not believe Allison. They go to her for help and then discount it routinely.

Agreed. Absolute inanity.

"I had this dream...the mayor was the one who killed that girl!"

"Impossible. You must be wrong. I've known him for years. He could never do that."

"But it was definitely him in my dream. I saw him take the power drill to her skull."

"Stop it, Allison! You're mistaken! You, who have been right on the money 107 times in a row. You, whose information we have scoffed at with shocking regularity, only to have eaten crow and had to offer you a huge apology. You're wrong, wrong, wrong. And you're fired, for being so inexplicably wrong, which you never are."

Another thing that irks me: the 3-6 shots of Allison every episode showing her waking up from a dream with a gasp and sitting bolt upright. It's beyond a cliche at this point.

Will we never get to page two? I guess that's a running gag.

BrettySpaghetti · « **Reply #10 on:** March 25, 2008, 01:02:56 AM »

TOTD...

My favorite HHW running gags:

"The plumber is on his way over to check our 4-year-old water heater."

"I have a pot of Irish Oatmeal doing its overnight soak thing on the stove, and I have two loads of laundry to fold before I turn in for the evening."

"Sitting at the local Oil Changers getting lubed and changed, including transmission fluid."

"Now, I've got some writing to finish up and then I'll be heading down to bed."

(NOTE: I am assuming these are running gags.)

I gotta tell you. That's a running gag.

bk · « **Reply #12 on:** March 25, 2008, 01:04:40 AM »

The Uncouth Interlopers were a running gag.

Matthew · « **Reply #13 on:** March 25, 2008, 01:08:05 AM »

Between the two chocolates I just ate and the Food Network "The Secret Life of Steak" I'm not officially hungry again. I'm thinking I should go to bed soon.

Matthew · « **Reply #14 on:** March 25, 2008, 01:08:49 AM »

And that, my friends, is a fine kettle of "what is it" fish.

HHW has running gags??

Asleep in bed...

Where you should be!

Oh, I never sleep.

Well, rarely.

And the word of the day is: REPINE!

Agatha did not care for the REPINE floors, and would complain frequently to anyone who would listen about how she would have much preferred reoak.

(At least she had enough sense to realize that remahogany would have been too expensive, by far.)

S. Woody White · « **Reply #23 on:** March 25, 2008, 03:50:47 AM »

The oatmeal bowl. Being washed, of course.

BrettySpaghetti · « **Reply #24 on:** March 25, 2008, 03:52:37 AM »

That's a running gag.

BrettySpaghetti · « **Reply #25 on:** March 25, 2008, 03:52:58 AM »

Will we never get to...oh, never mind.

Yesterday, Jane replied:

Quote

A shrimp cocktail fork would be an odd shape but smaller.

Or, more accurately, tine-ier.

Remember, there is no groaning here at HHW.

(Another running gag.)

S. Woody White · « **Reply #27 on:** March 25, 2008, 03:59:30 AM »

I blame Jose.

S. Woody White · « **Reply #28 on:** March 25, 2008, 04:00:28 AM »

And here's Dino at the piano.
