    Offhand, I would say Sweetheart has a point! 🙂

      Points for self-awareness. Extra points for an excellent grasp of the situation.

    Sounds like Wallraven has the right of it!

    I had to go back and re-read the plan: Tip is trying to turn off the reality blindness filter, right?

      Correct. The idea is to get all the non-human sapients seen by the public, and then they can get public opinion on their side. Presumably those not scared to bits by the sasquatches and talking dragons.

        Heh. Those are precisely the two groups I’d be *least* freaked out about.

    I saw Proportionately Silly open for Cognitive Resonance back on my undergrad campus in… geez, ’89?

    Peace was never an option.

    Unleash the goose.

      The way things are around here, I wouldn’t be completely surprised to find the Goose on the org chart.

      Goose Girl?

        Technically, she’s not with A-Sig any longer, so her name would be removed from the org chart.

          Maybe, she was the one responsible for removing inactive names from the chart?

    That’s fine for her, but what about the rest of the gang?

      “Sensible” is not a description that applies to most of Our Heroes anyway.

        I was thinking of being eaten or raptured.

    “Sensible” means that something makes sense, or that it adheres to rules that make sense. The only reason anything around here doesn’t make sense is if you’re applying your own pre-conceived rules rather that the rules of how things really are. And one of those rules is that what you thought was weird on Tuesday has turned out to be completely normal by Friday.

    Yes, there really are vegetable tigers and alien bees. So it makes perfect sense. Get used to it.

    If you can’t deal with it, best to throw yourself to the wolves. Or in this case, the tigers.

      Yeah, “throw yourself to the vegetables” just doesn’t have the same ring.

        But it is sensible.

        Rimwolf, I commend to your attention “The Day of the Triffids” by John Wyndham.

        Still my favorite TEOTWAWKI novel.

      Or zombie-infested wastewater.

        Not to mention wastewater-infested zombies.

      … seriously? Nobody rooting for the option of throwing oneself to the talking bees? From spaaaaaace?

        Tip is allergic.

    Tip can get to the top by tomorrow. But Sweetheart has several own sorrows. To be eaten by veggies or bee rapture pledgies, it all seems intensely bizzaro.

    “Sensible was never an option.” OK, we have the strapline for the movie now.

      With Tip wearing a dangerously high slit dress while wielding a tiny gun front and center on the poster.

    I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to realise, but if we have vegetable tigers, then there should have been vegetable lambs as well.

    Wait, what am I saying? Of course we haven’t seen them, the tigers ate them. Carry on.
