Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

For reasons that don't need exploring at this juncture, I've been watching episodes of old game shows on YouTube. I've found a few that I forgot existed, like Nick Arcade and Shop 'til You Drop.

But I have this memory of one that I can't find, where people would need to search rooms for some specific object. The internet insists that it's Finders Keepers, which is the right time period and ought to be what I'm looking for. But it isn't what I remember. It might even be a show with adults rather than kids.

Does that ring any bells for anyone?

The dim recesses of my brain say "Was that a segment in You Can't Do That On Television?"

So, I got an email from the teacher that Dillo was typing obscenities in computer class. I swear, the child has no sense at all.

That bit where they grab the tags seems awfully familiar. I wonder if I conflated that and Finders Keepers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am so tired and crabby, I'm pretty sure tomorrow's going to be Fuck-Off Wednesday. Unless today is already Fuck-Off Tuesday? Unclear.

At my workplace it appears to be Whack Off Tuesday. (We caught our serial masturbator, yay! But I am so tired of talking about it now.)

Interesting like the old Chinese curse, maybe.
