Ask Minnie Strator about the Preceding Post

The spectacularly irrelevant Diamonelle.

Our frenemy, Dr. Minnie Strator, wishes to address yesterday's comments:

Tom & Icy write, "This is like deja vu, I'm confused all over again."

Great use of French, Tom and Icy! It is totally o. k. to have a different learning style! Remember, there are no right answers, and everyone's contributions are equally valid!

Doug said, "Small correction, though. In the beginning it was Veryred University they all flunked or dropped out of, wasn't it?"

Interesting idea, Doug, and Auburn and Veryred State are VERY closely linked. Why don't you refer to the text again and let us know if you still feel that's the interpretation you choose to hold?

Thank you Hobbes. So far,

1. Dick Dummy is obviously not a dummy, but a product of a confused professor. This left poor Daisy no other choice than to become an Auburn drop-out.

So wonderful that you thought to thank Hobbes, Karen! And your response is rich with possibilities! As Shakespeare himself said, "What's in a name?" I personally couldn't agree more about Dr. Weirsdo, though it's possible something more sinister than confusion is at work there. As for Daisy, her choice is, of course, as valid as any other choice, and I agree that we shouldn't judge her, so perhaps the pejorative "drop-out" might not be the strongest choice here? At the same time, you are right to suggest that we might want to ask whether other choices might have been more available to her had Dr. Weirsdo and his ilk not received tenure. Excellent response all round.

2. Only one of Pansi's legs is above the box, therefore the caption should read, "Above the box: Pansi's leg."

Are you sure, Karen? Of course, it might be just one, extremely long leg, so good for you for having true creative vision.
But you might want to have your eyes checked, just in case.

3. I'm concerned for the well-being of Mall Diva and Toyplayer.

I couldn't agree more. Those children are forced to abide by the Weirsdos' rigid, imperialistic notions about "good" and "bad" behavior, and are not allowed to allocate their time as they choose, but forced to practice, homeschool, or do other "enriching" activities 24/7. It's simply child abuse. Why can't they just be kids, like Joon?

And upon further review, I can clearly see Pansi is leaping through the air, thus proving her gymnastic excellence.

However, the photographer's ability to frame the entire breathtaking scene is lacking.

The rose is beautiful in the eye of the beholder
but painful in the hand of the blind.
Dr. Doo Doo told me he was holding a reefer twixt his legs.

The photo is a vehicle in which Mall Diva was using her poetic license which she got from Picasso driving school.

Minnie, I thought Veryred State and Auburn were atextual.

Once again, Doug, I've had to Google one of your obscure nouns. Atextual is not well-liked in Search.

So, for the sake of time, can you pretend I'm Aubsvey say what you mean in five words or less?

Right on, C three & K.!

Maybe there's reefer in his signature bead belt, Leg o' Lammy. We've been all through that on here before.

Mrs. Weirsdo say please don't talk about driving school for the next few years, T&I.

As atextual as Minnie can make them, RBUD. But don't forget, we're standing in her way.

From the Greek prefix "a," meaning "without," Karen, plus "textual," that is, "without written words."

Thank you, Weirsdo. I no longer feel "studidly." I'm now enlightened to one of Doug's obscure nouns.

Diamonelle, I'm in awe your worshiped presence in comments.
