Super Ehhh Sunday


The Super Ehhh came and the Super Ehhh went. Plot's left ear was completely closed yesterday -- he didn't know it closed on Sundays - but he didn't miss much when he and Duck went to Design Without Common Sense to continue their furniture hunt. DWCS reproduces furniture from famous designers. Plotnik now takes back what he said on Friday about the expensive chair at Crate and Barrel. That chair was an olive in the martini glass compared to the knockoff Mies Van der Rohe or knockoff Charles Eames or knockoff Somebody Else at DWCS.

It is true that there are people who feel that if you spend a thousand dollars you have received ten times more than if you spend a hundred dollars. And there are people who would just rather spend the thousand dollars because it makes them enjoy what they purchased more.

Then there are certain pastors of small splinter-flocks who think spending ten bucks instead of a hundred or a hundred instead of a thousand JUST MAKES SENSE. He doesn't care if the label says Mies Van der Rohe or Crate van der Barrel.

They got to The Great Domin-Nik and J-Whacky's house by halftime. The chili was great and the company was too, and somebody won the game and somebody lost, ehhh. By then Plot's ear was killing him and Duck's eye was killing her. What a crotchety bunch of old *arts. They could use some better design themselves.

Monday morning, no more aches, no more pains, and Downton Abbey is getting interesting again.
