As you can see, it might not be Christmas eve in the HubrisVerse. Be not dismayed. It’s probably still, I dunno, 1998 there, too, for all I know.
It’s like ‘Stranger Things’ only with climbing walls.

I remember, years ago, reading a fat Marvel Comics collection (“Bring On The Bad Guys”, I believe, for which I had saved many allowances and the money from many mown yards) wherein Stan Lee mentioned in a preface to a Thor/Silver Surfer story how tricky it was writing dialogue for Thor.
I don’t doubt it.
Sorry about the size- everyone’s out of place and trying to get things covered for the holidays, you know.
People say that it’s a poor carpenter that blames his tools, but good carpenters always have really, really good stuff to work with for a reason.
When I kayaked, there was a lot of helmet talk. And a lot of boat purchases and comparison. It was fun. People were tempted to use non-kayaking helmets that looked cool or seemed better… and then discovered why the helmets were built the way they were.
When I was a kid, we in the neighborhood discovered hockey helmets at the local sports store… or more likely Walmart… and since there was no hockey whatsoever in our area, the helmets went into use for skateboarding by those of us who listened to our parents. Plus, hockey helmets were WAY cooler looking than skateboard helmets. Or the motorcycle helmet that one kid wore. Or the football helmet that another kid wore.
But the caving helmets that me and my buddy Jon had were the best! Except when used for anything except caving. Then they sucked.
SO… fancy knight’s armor helmet. Yeah, very cool looking… but you don’t wanna come flying off a bicycle and ring THAT bell, dude.
Too late. Chivalry took it in the back and keeled over years ago. Of course, Chivalry had some odd ideas about itself and the people (if chivalry wanted to call them that, which it sorta didn’t) around it.
They tell public speakers to consider their audiences.
That doesn’t apply to social media, of course.
For social media, you just consider whatever’s in your own head. That’s why it’s so much faster and easier!
I should do a whole thing with Dr. Whobris. That’d be funny, and not at all so specific that it’d severely restrict the number of readers who would enjoy it.
If a dog has something derogatory to think about your breath…
You might have an idea for a mouthwash commercial.
Sometimes, you just get in a spot where stuff is expected of you, Durnell! Make up a winner. Order some new awards. Add a page to the program books. Update the Facebook page. Act like that was the intent all along. You know the drill.
The discs on the front of the judge’s table are a li’l tip of the hat to the Stanky Creek Outdoorfest board game I work on now and again. I haven’t had a chance to, lately, with all the corporate work to do, but one’a these days soon, by golly, I’m going to get the next set of changes made to it…
…and start testing again. There’s a lot of testing that goes into games.
