BOOM BOOM, the keyboard clacks

~tffb

I think of BOOM BOOM Here Lies O'Leary, from Scaries Stories Vol 2. I, a guy named O'Leary, remembers this tale along with all other lore surrounding the (fairly rare) O'Leary name. Esp the Chicago Fire, ty Auntie ;)

No, I was thinking of wordplay, wordsmith'ing, how a good way to describe someone insulting a person with intentful hurt and personal hatred would be:

"...she spoke her disgust deliberately, as if saying it while still in the crowd we departed from. As though sky-writing "FUCK YOU" at night, where no one else would see it - just me, the night owl, while the rest of the neighborhood slumbered"

~bartender, a black coffee. A red eye - with a foaming, billowing, boiling drop of espresso dropped into the java like an undergrad at an initiation. It's 848, Sunday, Sun-day, a nice day.

Tomorrow clubhouse, other projects. My posts here are kaput, as deleting writing is nearly as important as writing it - clearing emotional cache. But those chips need filling, fingers need working.

Also, I have Google Fi - terrible for tethering, but it works somewhat. 50gb of *truly* unlim 5G speeds. not capped at 22gb like other carriers.

Still, data collection is an issue.

what to do

That (to my knowledge) there's never been a competitive word-smithing show says about all one need to know about this species.

There a bad "I smell the blood of an Englishmun!" in that somewhere.
