Whizzing Right Along

So, Bob Denver has bitten the dust. The only three television comedies that I really thought were genuinely funny (and that have even come close to holding up over the years) were Gilligan's Island, Green Acres and The Beverly Hillbillies. They're all driven by the interactions of the characters (and their fixed delusions), rather than by stupid one-liners and putdown jokes.

MFM apparently had a lot of hurricane refugees in their hotel.

An outbreak of Teh Furry Drama at MFM this weekend revolved around someone pissing on someone else's car. Saturday afternoon, some of us who didn't go to MFM went out instead to play miniature golf and eat at the Chinese buffet here in Columbus. A discussion in the restaurant parking lot revolved around whether it would be acceptable to piss on and around a car to insult the obnoxiously territorial microdog who was inside. Calmer judgement prevailed, though, and our party, at least, didn't pee all over the car.

[livejournal.com profile] dakhun reports that there was much belching at MFM. An outbreak of belching after the restaurant visit resulted in an agreement to have a belching contest at next year's Morphicon.

Coincidence, or is there something about the current state of the fandom that results in spontaneous outbreaks of belching and car-wetting?
