Gritting his teeth, Lasper said, “Try… the… other… one… please…”

This is damaging my “most galactic sapients would not be so without the chip” theory. She needs a keeper.
Adm, it was used well. Used well, indeed. 🙂
And. Not Adm. Danged fingers are used to IBM Model F and M keyboards. And (got it right that time) this was on a Lenovo laptop. Sigh.
It is amazing what Otto Korrupt does to words on my phone. That’s why I am so terse on my message app.

I have been patiently waiting for a fart joke. Manknd’s earliest form of entertainment. Must have been hilarious in a cave, Especially after we invented fire. 🙂
