Pepper* - A couple of PSAs

A couple of PSAs

pepper: Pepperpot (Not seeing the humour)

The next time someone phones me, and responds to my greeting by saying, "Hello?", and then, when I try again, says, "Hello?" again, as if they can't hear me, I'm not going to make any further attempts to steer the conversation into more productive waters. I've done my duty by the call, as far as I'm concerned. If they continue to imitate the actions of a parrot, I shall parrot back, and we can "Hello?" at each other until one of us hangs up.

So there.

Last day for submitting prompts to

apocalypse_kree! You heard me, I said, "Kree!"

ETA: Also, this icon, and my research for the fic I posted yesterday (looking at screencaps from Unnatural Selection! Get your minds out of the gutter. I was staring at shots of the chair, working out if what I was writing was physically possible. *g*) reminded me that Jack is unfeasibly hot in that ep. And bad-tempered. Which adds to the hot. I wonder if it has something to do with the black uniform?

ETA2: And I think it was yesterday's pic in

rda_dailywhich subliminally made me choose that ep.

Apocafic COULD be funny! I don't see why not. There's always room for crackfic. :)

I've not submitted prompts yet. I'm compiling a list, but I find putting prompts together really damn hard. But I will! This evening.

The question in my mind now is, would a black uniform cancel out the annoyance of a parrot person?

Well, where is the person wearing the black uniform? Can you see them? Who is in the uniform? Is the person wearing the uniform the same person as is doing the parroting?

There is much testing needed. *grins*

I always submit the weirdest prompts. Seriously. I think only one person has actually written one of them, and I believe that was because it was a one-word sort of deal. Hee.

Hm. Well, I'm willing to test it, if someone could send Jack to parrot at me. QED, the uniform is effective under certain circumstances. *g*

(Ooh, and also testing should be done with a variety of uniforms. The charcoal one worn for funerals, and the Dress Blues, and the BDUs... and obviously there'd need to be a zero point, and obviously that would have to be no uniform at all...)

Your prompts maybe tailored for the 'things I would never write' meme. Which was awesomely fun, so that's a good thing. :D
