When is coaching too much?

Not speaking in iambic pentameter might be a step in the right direction.

Would you two mind telling the rest of us what is going on? I got the reference to the Pinafore, but after that it begins to sound very strange. And not (surprise!) relevant to the topic.

This is the White House, you get used to that feeling.

[And it's three of us. Oiuyt started it. Ish.]

[telkanuru]

I have to go now, to a special meeting... of the government.

Well, forgive me, sir, but when you have a few moments, I would like to discuss the hiring of a blonde and leggy fascist whose knowledge does not include the proper order of the alphabet for positions of the White House Counsel's office.

[telkanuru]

Would you like to get that smile off your face before I send you on special assignment to the Yukon?

[epeemike81]

You both have WAY too much time on your hands...

[epeemike81]

I hate to stick my head in the lion's mouth, but I got to ask you: were you the Recording Secretary of the Princeton Gilbert and Sullivan Society for two years?

No, but then again I'm not a woman, so...

[telkanuru]

Keep talking. I'm just gonna sit here and think about plutonium and the things I can do with it.

Is it so hard to believe, in this day and age, that someone would roll up their sleeves, set aside partisanship, and say, "What can I do?"

Keep talking. I'm just gonna sit here and think about plutonium and the things I can do with it.

Sir, due respect, that wasn't what I was referring to. I think jumping up and down on the Commander in Chief and then beating a path out of town is an act of cowardice.

[telkanuru]

We better get some key chains in here.

[Inquartata]

I think a psychiatrist might be a better idea...

They're referring me to insurance code 4336. You know what that means?

[telkanuru]

You may have to get yourself a job mowing lawns after school.

[MyrddinsPrecint]

The DOD press office isn't confirming anything.

[oiuyt]

Ish.

VERY ish.

Although at least I did immediately know what the two of you (three of us?) were talking about.

Not an actual horseshoe. That takes special training as a blacksmith.

[MyrddinsPrecint]

They didn’t laugh at the blacksmith joke.

That's almost hard to believe.

[telkanuru]

You know why?

'Cause you weren't shouting.

[Inquartata]

There is thread drift, and then there is thread drift...and THIS thread had gotten blind drunk and staggered right over a seaside cliff...and landed on a boat headed for China.

[MyrddinsPrecint]

You heard the news and you slammed the door so hard it broke, okay? You heard the news and you broke the White House.
