Characters say the darndest things.

Pet line for tonight:

“Excuse me,” I said. “I know my social skills are woefully underdeveloped from lack of practice, but I’m reasonably intelligent and doing my best to be polite, and you just aren’t making any sense.”

In fairy tale retelling, can you change the plot?

I might do a sort of SF-ish tale involving Rapunzel's hair.

Yep. I consider it part of the fun, anyway.

Must be a different era. Today we'd just say, "Huh?" followed by a hand motion zooming over the head an inch or so. "Dude, ya' lost me."


Funny how language shrinks a little every year, eh'.

Fairy tale. Although doing it the modern way might be funnier!
