Recently,

Ive been learning to play the bass, enjoying the outdoors with my son and playing with oil pastels. Life has its obstacles but man am I truly happy to enjoy the small moments.:)

It’s so quiet lately…? Does this mean the story is over? Or should we brace ourselves?

Dear Brace or Over Anon,

I honestly think neither of those two alternate plots you propose. But patterns seem to be stronger, or would it be that your instincts are more in tune than mine?

Twelve years of OL are soon over - just around the corner, in fact - and, to me, this is exactly when things will be at their most interesting or, if you prefer, challenging. That very moment when the lights are back in the screening room and people begin to fidget. And when those who are too impatient to watch the show's closing credits are reaching for their coats, already thinking about that nice supper they booked in advance. This is when we are bound to have more clarity on this entire charade. All of us.

I have good reasons to think this corner will not be left wanting, Anon. Bumpy road ahead or not, remember the worst is probably behind us. If only because we still watch the same old, same old playbook.

Come to think of it, didn't S 'acknowledge' Flukenzie Floozy's 'presence' in his life, via some rather strained 📸, at her sister's wedding?

Something like this, if memory serves, where the woman is wedging herself to a statue of sorts:

Flukenzie Floozy, such a 'dear friend' of C as well. Until she wasn't, because she would have served her purpose. And then the same OG Troll, with the same Harlequinesque BS.

May 2018:

This could have very well been written yesterday, give or take a few cosmetic adjustments. Because *urv is just like those elderly Los del Rio guys - a one hit box office wonder.

Remember them? Sure you do. Remember anything else of note and import they came up with? Sure no: remixes and covers only. Casting may vary.

So yes, Anon, it's the same rigmarole, but different seasons. Wars broke and ended, revolutions erupted and were brutally repressed, the stock exchange went its course. And we are still following the same script, because we just never seem to learn and this fandom's attention span is sequential.
