Well, the subject line comes from what happened to me today. I saw a serpent so I started yelling for help and running and it started chasing me.
I happened to be in a German part of town so nat?rlich I was calling for help in German 'Zu H?lfe! Zu H?lfe! Sonst bin ich verloren!'
I ran until I could run no more then just as I passed out from exhaustion, three maidens appeared before me and clobbered the snake dead!
I lay there swooning but I could barely perceive the maidens standing over me and discussing how lovely I looked.
So, I recovered a while later and they were gone but then, this weird looking guy dressed in a bird suit and holding a bird cage walked up singing 'Der Vogelf?nger bin ich ja!' and whistling like a bird. I thought I was tripping with heat stroke or something but he explained that he was a bird catcher and the costume was just a clever ploy to lure birds into his cage.
I'll spare you the details, but my day only got weirder from there. I ended up joining some kind of cult that worships a Magic Flute or something (I wasn't really paying attention during the initiation speech) and I got engaged to some chick named Pamina. Pamina doesn't get along with her mother very well so she talked the cult into casting a spell that made the earth open up and swallow her mother. I told her to stop being so hard-core but she was like 'just cause you gonna be my old man don't mean you can tell me what to do!'
Oh well, at least cult members get to wear these cool while robes and I think we get to go to a basket weaving class tomorrow.
