Gaming-originating silliness: Yes of the Beholder

[personal profile] drcpunk, in our regular PBEM, managed to typo "Eyes of the Beholder" as "Yes of the Beholder."

Which might, I suppose, explain why I responded with this:

"...I was a Globe of the dungeon yes when I put the gold twixt my eyes like the Draconian tyrants used or shall I wear a red yes and how he gazed at me under the dragon's cave and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my golden grapes and first I sent my rays about him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my orbs all perfume yes and his central eye was twisting like mad and yes I said yes I will Yes." (From Eyelisses, by Janus Jocular)

(with apologies to Mr. Joyce).
