[cemetery name] burial plot – $2300


Looking to trade plot for wide variety of stuff; will consider all possibilties

That could take a while. I mean, I’ve got a perfectly good bag full of hammers, cedar shavings, tennis balls, and a live okapi, but I have to sit here and wait while you consider ALL possibilities. I mean, it takes me twenty minutes sometimes to decide where to have lunch, and you’ve got to start from there, then get through the various possibilities for unifying quantum mechanics and general relativity, the possibility that Oswald acted with help from the Quaker Oats guy, and every possible slash fiction configuration between the casts of “Community” and “The Importance of Being Earnest.”

Well, let me know when you’re ready.

Thanks for the post, Kit!

    Don’t mind me. I’ll just be over in my little fandom corner waiting for Season 3 to start.

    The burial plot exists in a superposition of states, which will collapse into a single state once someone makes a lowball offer.

        At half-past three, though, the toddlers all said gnocci and refussilli to take their naps.

    I’m fairly certain that the last two entries in that list overlap.

    Has Sparky considered the possibility of a Vegemite sandwich?

      Now see, maybe it’s just my ‘Murkin bias, but half the time I hear the titular lyric as “On a hippie trailhead full of zombies.” This make sense to me – zombies are generally not big on hiking, and the best choke point to catch a good set of hiker brains would be at the trailhead.

    Hey, Spark’
    I gots a gunpowder plot, but it could crater at any moment; my whiskey plot ran aground at John Harper’s Ferry.
    Perhaps you need something simpler
    Like, Boy meets Girl. Girl hates Uncle. Gets Boy to murder Uncle, but cannot get the spot out afterwards .
    Uncle then marries Sister, which Son thinks is a gold-digging play for the throne. Boy acts a bit loopy, enough to push Girlfriend over the edge. Boy stages a play. There’swordplay and every one snuffs it. The End.

      I love that play, especially the bit with the dog.

    Maybe Sparky would like to trade for a cask of Amontillado? It’s another well-used burial plot.
