Kneel, tenant
Sometimes it seems this blog is really just a bucket into which I urinate directionless puns.
Today’s outfit had to be tweaked for practicality once again as it was raining and I’d just applied the anti-Pippa Middleton leg make-up of yesterweek, which I don’t believe is waterproof. Not a day for shorts.
After a week-long break from recipe copying, I’m looking forward to getting back on the hungry horse next week. Cooking, yehhhhhhhhhhh. Can’t live with it, can’t live without it.
Conclusions:
- This was the last day of photo-colouring glory
- Do you need a tissue?
- No, not in that way
- If you remember the vicious knids with as much fondness as I do, would you like to be pen pals?
- No comments on facial expression/limb size today. Getting too boring.
Vermicious, no?
Sorry, I should’ve fact checked.
I couldn’t help it:
“Vermicious Knids are a fictional species of amorphous aliens that invade the Space Hotel USA in Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator. They are also mentioned in the 1971 feature film adaptation, Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, except on this occasion they are referred to as being one of the species of animals that inhabit Loompaland.
In their natural form, Vermicious Knids are huge, dark, egg-shaped beings that are quite at home in the vacuum of space. Their homeworld is the planet Vermes, a fictional planet located (as stated in dialogue) 184,270,000,000 miles away from Earth (this would place it at 52 times Pluto’s distance). Their one weak point is that they are show-offs; they cannot resist shaping themselves to spell the word “SCRAM” – the only word they know – before they attack. Willy Wonka knows that this interval is ideal for escaping an encounter with the Knids.”
and on it goes…..
Wikipedia, how did we manage without you?
Oh, vermicious! It was my 7-year old reading skills letting me down then x x
Well they do sound pretty vicious too!
Vermicious knids terrified me when I was a nipper.
