July 25: TJI (XAW, Day 9)
 
<p>Day 9 is Sunday, and that means it's time for <i>This Just In</i>! Today's issue is notable for two reasons: it's the first normal issue of TJI since '06 (since then it's been Briefs and whatnot), and it marks the long-awaited return of IJD GAF. With breaking news straight outta San Diego Comic-Con 2010 -- or was it 1865? -- here's IJD with <a href="../thisjustin/51.html">TJI #51: Abrams' Lincoln shot by Joan Wilkes, booth babe</a>.
<p>No ten connection, you say? Take note of the time of "impact". And then be here for Day 10 (which won't take as long as Day 9; this week was my most exhausting math camp ever, and I really had no time for anything else).

As of yet, there is no evidence of any Con-Federation conspiracy.
Though, no doubt, rumors of it shall rise again.

Hilarious from start to finish, IJD! The puns were superb. Is Gerardo's Ford a reference to Ford theater?

NAHTMMM 07-26-2010 12:23 AM

Funny stuff, IJD. :D

I also thought he meant [s]Gerald Ford[/s] what evay said.

When reached for comment, Anton Yelchin was found wearing dark sunglasses and a baseball cap with the price tag still attached. Visibly shaken, he offered, "I'm terrified that there's still a crazed woman out there, gunning for Abrams' navigators."
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

IJD, there are enough atrocious puns in there that I'm seriously considering flying to California, working out exactly who and where you are and visiting grievous bodily harm upon you with an assortment of novelty inflatable hammers.

Duh. Gerald Ford. Never mind.

Also ten-jentially related:

-the number of letters in "This Just In"

-The number of years since the assassination of Abraham Lincoln (in a roundabout way).

Thanks for the comments, one and all!

Not often that a title of a work is enough to make me laugh.

It is suggested by some that she utilized transwarp beaming technologies to return to Vulcan itself. It is suggested to some that they kindly resume consumption of doctor-prescribed medication.
:D Great TJI, IJD.

By the way, I like the new member titles, Zeke. Although I suddenly feel a strange urge to insult everyone I know. In alphabetical order. Are you bovvered?

PointyHairedJedi 07-30-2010 05:43 PM

Well that was pretty funny.

Also, red matter, fech.

Nate the Great 08-25-2010 12:18 PM

Erm, Day 10?

Zeke 08-26-2010 05:26 AM

Right, sorry. It's coming. I hit a patch of inertia there.

Sa'ar Chasm 08-26-2010 02:04 PM

I live in fear of the atrocious Day Ten/datin' pun you're about to inflict on us.

evay 08-26-2010 02:52 PM

Of course, if you're counting in binary, it's only Day 2...

PointyHairedJedi 08-27-2010 08:29 PM

You know what they say, there are only two kinds of people in the world... and I'm not either of them.

Could be worse. He might go for a geographical pun instead.

Nate the Great 09-13-2010 07:38 PM

Cough.

evay 09-16-2010 10:46 AM

<--hands Nate a cough drop

Nate the Great 09-16-2010 09:18 PM

Cough drops are awful. I prefer hot liquids. Cider and Tang particularly.

Sa'ar Chasm 09-16-2010 10:53 PM

Fuming sulphuric acid? You'll never have a sore throat again.

(It's hard to feel pain when your pain receptors have dissolved)

Nate the Great 09-16-2010 11:51 PM

The Question: Okay, bored now. Good-bye.

Moving on...
