Lemon scented handle

cdaveMost people who self identify as Wacky, Crazy, or god forbid Zany, are usually anything but. I'd like to put forward my case.
A Zany person may pick up some fruit at the supermarket to make a "nice pair" joke. I not only bought the pear, and bought a "good lemon" to go with it (on the small chance it might go in a drink at some point). And when I tried to play it as keeper in Fluxx, Vixie pointed out that I've brought lemons round to her parties before.
Secondly the handle was not so much chosen as thrust upon me. Physoc had too many Dave's so all of us needed a Dave name. And despite volunteering for the exec committee at the sign up booth, I was refused to be known as Keen Dave.

Crazy, Zany, Wacky ...
Date: 2008-04-07 05:03 pm (UTC)I was simply called mad, as in "mad scientist". Because, well, I was.
And in a way, i still am. And not wacky or zany mad, either.
The worst kind. The kind that makes everyone around me think. The kind of mad that makes everyone around as sane as I am. :)
