And you girls with the seafood made me laugh with a mouthful of Diet Coke and get bubbles up my nose the wrong way, so watch it!

Uh hmmmmm... and isn't there a song... Cockles and Muscles alive alive oh? So not always flaccid I'm guessing.darkstarrising wrote:Per Dear Mr. Webster:wpgrace wrote:Is it a hard shell? I'll bet it's a hard shell...![]()
You're still not out of this yet, ya know, my darlingDark...
cockle - an invertebrate ocean animal with a small rounded or heart-shaped ridged shell in two parts
hmm...sounds like the cockle itself is somewhat flaccid....but indeed the shell is hard....it's the two parts that's intriguing.![]()
ETA - o dear god....what are those first three images from AJ???
Take care, either grace or I am going to have a heart attack soon

Sorry, Alle... my bad. Dark and I (and Molly, bless her Mick-deprived cockle-starved heart) got cocky... we went off half-cocked (as opposed to Mick who is never... half... cocked but always cocksure). I shall wear my apology to you like a cockade... which is not the same as a cock aid which is, in any case, irrelevant to any discussion of Mick anyway. I shall now cease my cock and bull story (now bulls, there's a whole 'nother can of tennis balls... ) and finally accept that cocktail which NM so cockily offered some half hour ago... or thereabouts in time, as the cock crows, at least.
Btw, did y'all know the cockatoo, like Mick's alter ego, is Australian?
Yes, dearest darling Dark... you write a half dozen multi-chaptered, long-chaptered, intricately-plotted, well-characterized MickFics in which you probably use thousands of words that do not begin with cock, and I come up with the most silly, albeit snarky, of paragraphs, and yes indeed, it is my greatness that stuns! Yes, my "work" stuns... just like a gun with which one is cold-cocked upside the head...darkstarrising wrote:wpgrace wrote:allegrita wrote:![]()
