*snort* Heh.

drcpunk and I were talking about how certain "Adult" clubs advertise "Live Girls" (so where are their competition that deliver dead ones?), and it struck me. A name for a whorehouse...


Schrodinger's Cat Box
"Where you find out how alive the pussy is by going inside."

Wouldn't that be "Schroedinger's Cathouse?"

[mneme]

I thought of using that one, but figured it was easier to leave it implicit and the "box" pun explicit than the other way around.

So to speak.

You know, if I ever run Over The Edge again, I'm going to have to steal that.

Feel free and welcome.

Ouch. I have reason to believe that that may be a crappy name.

Or maybe not. We won't know until it gets used and someone looks in.

:-D

[mneme]

No, we never will, unless... :)

So, is there an anecdote that inspired the "reason to believe?" comment?

so where are their competition that deliver dead ones?

I'm guessing Sunnydale.

"Grooan..." ;-)

[aliza250.livejournal.com]

In some circles "box" is a synonym for "pussy."

:-)

[mneme]

Well, yes. That was intentional.

You do not know me, but...

...nrivkis can vouch for me at least somewhat.

In a recent issue of "Say...", an SF zine, there was a story called "Dead Nude Girls", inspired by much the same thought. I recommend it. ;)

Uh...yes -- I've even met you (at Chicon) once, extremely briefly.

Thanks; I'll look it up if I get a chance.
