I’m hoping that this took place in Britain, and that the “bloody” is an expression of exasperation, rather than a description of the clothes’ blood-soaked state… If someone is trying to destroy blood-soaked clothes in a fire, that’s ALWAYS a bad sign…

Ten, if you’re not a “regular”, then you probably didn’t get the joke.

Sorry you didn’t, but I trust most did.
I would explain it, but I don’t do that.

rv, you’re right. I spent the entire day hitting F5 and trying to think of a witty reply to your comment, but all I was able to produce was a blister. You’ve bested me.
I just can’t come up with any article of clothing made of Canthz_B to counter your “Canthz_B clothing” for some reason. I was going to go with a smoking jacket, but those are often made of…well, you know.
Now, if I were a pimp, Canthz_B clothing would probably consist of a suit, hat and shoes made of…you guessed it, didn’t you?

Thank you Frankie! I think I get the general idea, thanks to your helpful explanation. I’m still confused by Oi’s comment; those words don’t make sense in that order, except for the last sentence, which is very true. And Anglophile just described the chat on World of Warcraft, which I will now use to inspire nerd-rage in my fellow rage-y nerds. I also have not had the courage to try F5. Too much excitement for one day. I’m gonna go PvP and kill some Horde with my guild. Ta!

Woah…..I was just laughing because it took me about 5 minutes to even understand that “Canthz_B clothes” was a reference to the term “red velvet clothes” in the post above it…..uh, so I was sarcastically chuckling at my own thick-headedness.

Sorry I couldn’t clear this mystery up for y’all.

Maybe they were really drunk that thought it was the laundry bin. I’m sure that we’ve all woken up after a big night and found that we’d put things in weird places.

Still does not explain the need for this note, not that that ever stopped anyone from writing a PAN. Was this in an apartment lobby?

Hm? I would reword this (for people who do not follow the commenter drama) to say that CB just went on the offensive against other commenters, on a new post, without any provocation. A classic dick move that is only funny (?) to regulars. And I would strike the “witty”.

No no red velvet, please come back. We miss you.

I gotcha Janellionaire sweetie: First of all, Nunavut Guy noticed a new note and was lucky enough to comment first in a witty way to say that no one could be that dumb. THEN in 1.1 A Fox made a funny sub comment about how it could have been someone who had drank too much. 1.2 brought us a witty comment from CB in the form of a light hearted jab at RV for something they must have posted in a previous note. CB’s comment somehow resulted in RV gaining the super power of being able to detect intention and tone of voice in an internet posting. The result was RV got all het up causing his/her ass to eat his/her underwear followed by an immediate reversion back to his/her childhood (I’m guessing 3rd grade as we can see in comment 1.3 where RV has clearly taken the “I know you are but what am I” approach. ) In 1.4 we can see Glo doing what she does best; making a funny comment that has a point you cannot deny and most likely teaches you a lesson like no after school special starring Ben Affleck ever could. 1.5 you made your appearance with a question for the ages. I’m afraid however, we may never be able to answer it, unless Sean Jungian actually figured it out in 1.6 in which case, Sam, we implore you to share your knowledge so that we too may be able to better understand RV completely. Then oi came in at 1.7 with another sarcastic witty comment because oi got CB’s back like that. We be family after all. and then you asked for it to be explained. As for F5. I don’t know. I’m too scared to touch it as I’m worried that it has something to do with what RV is rambling about. I’m too young to take things as seriously as all of that.

It reads like a really lame self-penned alibi by the maid.

“I’ve chopped up the master’s body and fed him to the dogs, but what of his clothes? I got it; I’ll set them over by the fake fireplace… wait, I’d better write a note explaining the he set his clothes over there, hmmm, and I ‘d better throw everyone off the trail with a completely incorrect signature…”

I have 2 fake fireplaces and 1 real one (there’s a reason, but it takes a bit to explain and I must focus to try and stay on topic). One of them is made by the amish, another by the chinese, and the third by some crap contractor from sapulpa. I can’t even get into the fake firey part of the fake ones to even try them out on my clothes, but I have burned a shirt in the real one before. OU kicked OSU’s ass in the bedlam football game and an OSU shirt had to be burned in celebration. I laughed my evil little ass off. Anyhow, I would have liked to see a picture of this ultra realistic looking fake fireplace along with the note as I have a blanket here that needs burning that I could try and shove in through my monitor.
