Your parody game is *strong*. Loved all three parts. And I feel I have survived all three rounds but I’m not going to tell you how to get me.

My free Friday content is the only stuff people actually read and that is all about penises and karma and bad haircuts and shitty opera options so I dispute this characterisation but thanks for checking me out!

I'd also say it's more vaping than cigars, that little electronic sound and quiet inhale is the new "dog barking in the garden" incidental background noise of choice.

I’m surprised not to see the “mom” category on here that writes about homeschooling and her children. Not me but it’s what I get fed lol

Alright so far I'm a philosopher troll assassin.

That actually sounds pretty badass. I wonder if the DM will let me spit my exp between classes.

I need a new Substack to be more mainstream. If I can fit growth using AI and crypto while hating other social media, I might be on to something!

Thalia, these are hilarious! In my mind, I found myself wickedly assigning certain Substackers, who will remain unnamed, to the categories. The best, and I really did laugh out loud, was 'the torturing poet'. That and the carrot top cooking boys. I think I dodged this list, but I think the main reason for that is I'm so incredibly, remarkably...unremarkable. Now if you had an inwardly-bitter-Close but no Cigar grouping, I would have not survived the round. - Jim

Well, I'm one who was scrolling late at night, saw your image of those red head chaps and thought to myself, 'That reminds me of the song "Forty-Seven Ginger-Headed Sailors" as sung by Hugh Laurie in the BBC adaptation of Jeeves and Wooster. https://youtu.be/0ifQYiT90p4?si=6tXgTAd1PH5FY1xa

That part is so funny. "Hi de hi de hi de ho... sir"

"You don't have to say sir after every line."

Thalia, verrrry interesting...

Not certain where I would fit in, too discouraging to even consider this morning. I am, however, still alive and functioning.

What kind of Substacker are you? Curious. Wendy
