Horrible Warning Si — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 16:34:52 -0700

I’m getting hitched on Saturday. Send money to the usual address.

On Monday I’m sublimating on a honeymoon to dark and mysterious places, where you and your infectious loveliness can’t reach me. I understand my wife-to-be has bought a special datablind sun-cream to prevent me wi-fi-ing in. She’s good.

I will be back in two weeks. Play nice.

A few logistical things:

1) Remake/Remodel. I’ll be setting up a special two-week challenge just before I leave. It’s a tough one, so don’t go shooting your loads early. Think it over.

2) I’ll also initiate our first ever ASK WHITECHAPEL monthly thread before going. I look forward to seeing what you've done with it when I get back.

3) I’ll miss out on two consecutive Fridays. If some enterprising person wants to set up new OPEN MIC threads on those days, go ahead. Venting is good.

4) I was due to kickstart a mod-sanctioned AROUND THE NET thread on the 29th… but the current nonsticky one is still thriving down below so I think we’re fine without. I’ll just slot a new one into the monthly-thread system in early September.

5) I’ll get the SPINNING YARNS monthly off the ground in early September too.

6) There is no 6.

Be good. Remember that auntie Ariana is always always watching, and the Urethral Attack Maggots are due to hatch sometime while I’m away. Just saying.

Dear god. You're not writing your own vows, are you, Si? Those'd be something to behold. Either way, congrats and I hope you receive sufficient sedatives & anti-psychotics as wedding prezzies to see you both through to a glorious old age.

Hey guys, let's throw a whole bunch of huge parties while he's gone, then stop having parties when he comes back and then pretend like we never had any parties in the first place because that's not the kind of thing we do, honest.

Congratulations on your forthcoming nuptials Mr Spurrier, may they be both fun and frolicsome. I am certain the inmates here are more than capable of running the place for a while and very little will (still) be on fire when you return.

Congratulations Si!

Remember - apparently nearly 95% of modern marriages are never consumated on the first night.

so no pressure there then...

@Bob you have to consumate the deal between ceremony and dinner or more literally: photoshoot and fathers first dance. Its the only way.

Why did you ruin your life Si? You can still get out while you can! Just tell her that you're going to the bathroom, then run away as fast as you can. Just like my dad!

Congrats on getting hitched, sir! Mosel tov! I think I spelled that right.

Also--"Urethral Attack Maggots?" Oy. And I thought the eels elicited unadulterated terror.
