If you like to invent games of the sort that people seem to like these days- objective card games where the rules seem more implied than enforced- maybe you’d like to invent one called ‘wolves and weasels’. It seems to be the sort of thing that could go over pretty well. Maybe include an exploding kitten or some cards that seem to be against humanity.

Lowell’s mug in the last scene is PRICELESS.
As for Pot Bellied Weasels, I’m an ex-pert..
This is simmering up to be amazing. Just beware the Carolina Reaper I tossed in the pot when y’all wasn’t looking….
Carolina Reapers and laxatives are a good recipe for mayhem, just keep a mop ready.
oh GOSH! I WAS RIGHT!
Lowell is planning something EVIL! lol
“Ma-am. He calls you ‘Ma-am.’ Like he thinks you’re shriveled, old, and needing to be treated with great awe and like you’re feeble and apt to break a hip at any moment.”
Working all over the south and southwest, I was “ma’am”-ed even in my 20’s. Bella Abzug forgive me, I usually found it polite, deferential and charming. Now that I am old and have actually broken that hip, it just seems earned. Of course, consider the source. ANYTHING coming out of Mal’s mouth is open to suspicion.
I’ve been raised in the South. Being called “Ma’am” is intended to be polite, deferential, and charming. Though, I have heard that a few Southerners have been told to stick it up their %$# when they used the term while visiting the North, where it is not considered polite, but apparently is intended as an insult and is to be countered with aggression. I myself have called a five year old “Ma’am” as, when instructed to draw a picture of her, I replied, “Yes, ma’am.” and offered her a chair. The comment and the chair were accepted as her proper due. Kids. Bless their hearts.
I moved to within sight of the Mason-Dixon line. You bet they do ‘Ma-am’ here. The Mrs. Whiggins was a subtle touch, Greg. Liked it. Mal is so doomed. Maybe Cthula carries him off… that might be a nicer fate.
When I intend to be insulting I usually go with the long form ‘Madame’. Rarely need it though.
Does anyone else smell failure on Lowell?
(I smell it on me cuz the charity I’m tryin’ to start isn’t doin’ well … )

If I were Ms. Wiggins-Ross I would have formed a negative opinion as soon as the Mal called me Mrs. Wiggins.
I know better than to call a woman Misses when she prefers Miz.
Oh, and Lowell, will it be your fault if the little weasel doesn’t get beaten up?
I was wondering if anyone caught the “Mrs Wiggins”. Every time I type that, I hear Tim Conway saying it.
I noticed it. I expected Wiggins-Ross, or Lowell, to respond to it somehow.
To me, “Mrs. Wiggins” sounds the way Seinfeld says “New-man.”
I call everyone “sir” or “ma’am” because the South. But it still weirds me out when anyone calls me “sir.”
I’m an Irish, Italian NYer mutt with Marine Corps training and living in the South. The CAT gets called Ma’am!!
oh lowel proving to be a true master mind. for once he tells miss wiggins ross what the guy calls her he will have gotten rid of one rival . and both will never suspect maybe they are being played against each other
Just finished my 1st archive-dive of “Hubris”, from start-to-today, in 1 afternoon…
…thanks to good Internet response-speed…
…so glad to discover it, & now so impatient to see the next page!
(…no pressure…)
I can hardly wait to see what sort of “wildcard”-role you have planned for Bob’s return in the competition.
Will he sow still more chaos into the festival,
or will he be your “Deus Ex Machina”?
(…only time will tell…)
Welcome to the team, DMC_Run! That’s some serious perseverance, going through the whole archive. I’ll try to keep you entertained.
I never pegged Lowell as somebody a person should be nervous of… Until now.
I think he may have been hiding his true potential until now. I’m still not worried for Hubris but I’m thinking that Lowell isn’t as focused on him any more so it’s okay.
Twisty crazies are less scary than the Focused ones, in my experiences anyway.
Lowell is taking to management like he was born to the role. As for the wolves and weasels, Lowell is simply a different type of muskrat, a skunk. Ain’t he a stinka’?
