March is a Slow Month for Arguments

It looks like I have one reader, so I now feel guilty for not living up to my hopes and dreams of blogging arguments daily. Shoot. It turns out that's too much work. I think I'll set a new goal of posting an argument once a week. Hopefully I'll hear a whole bunch of new ones at the APA next week!

"It's like when you put instant rice pudding mix in a bowl in the microwave and push the button, and you take the cover off when it rings, and there you've got rice pudding. I mean, what happens in between the time when you push the switch and when the microwave rings? You can't tell what's going on under the cover. Maybe the instant rice pudding first turns into macaroni gratin in the darkness when nobody's looking and only then turns back into rice pudding. We think it's only natural to get rice pudding after we put rice pudding mix in the microwave and the bell rings, but to me that's just a presumption. I would be kind of relieved if, every once in a while, after you put the rice pudding mix in the microwave and it rang and you opened the top, you got macaroni gratin. I suppose I'd be shocked, of course, but I don't know, I think I'd be kind of relieved too. Or at least I think I wouldn't be so upset, because that would feel, in some ways, a whole lot more real"

Speaking of instant rice pudding mix, I'm thinking of which comics to buy tommorrow (since its Wednesday and all): I think I'll get JLA, and Countdown, and maybe I'll try the Avengers. How about all y'all? Dagzife!

You could get the Macaroni Ronin and the Asymmetrical Archerist crossover. I bet it's good.

"Spoiler Alert!"
I heard the Asymmetrical Archerist is good, but they only print the back of each page every other issue. Will this be one such issue? Only time will tell. Snick!

You should let me know how the Avengers turned out. Is Thor in it? If so, I should start getting those too. I'm caught up now on the new Thor series. It's really good. It makes me want some macaroni gratin, even though I don't know what it is.

Yeah I bought the new Avengers and the previous one too cuz the shop still had it on the racks. I'll let you know how they are later -after work - also got Booster Gold and Countdown, but I guess JLA got pushed back to next week. Cool that you like Thor - where did you find the back issues. Rumspringa!

Well I read Avengers 9 and 10 - They didn't have Thor as a member in these issues. It had Iron Man and some wanker called Sentry and some more people I'd not heard of. But then, I really don't know the Marvel U at all. I liked Booster Gold Better, but I still might get the next Avengers - had good art. #10 was done in a retro style that looked cool. Later
