Absinthe & Cookies (a bit bitter, a bit sweet)

In Defense Of The Scruffy (CrankyBeach)

Nerfs must be herded. If they are not, they get to thinking they can just wander anywhere, and more than likely will take up residence in your high-class gardens. You do not want that to happen. Have you ever tried to evict a feral nerf from a place it likes? I didn't think so. You'll have to trust me on this one.

Herding nerfs is a dirty job. No matter how clean one is when one begins, after less than half a standard timepart, one becomes quite scruffy.

If nerf-herders went away, your high-class gardens would be no more, and feral nerfs do not produce those highly-sought-after nerf products you all claim to be unable to do without.

So give us nerf-herders a break and stop calling us 'scruffy' as if that were a bad thing.

(And as long as I have your attention... go see what CrankyBeach is up to.)
