Most of the people I care about on this website are in Spam, so I never have to add any friends.

No one in Spam has friends -- at best we're clearly all just overly sarcastic frenemies.
It is the natural order of things here.

I should've known this would lead to escalation, Holmes.

Mostly because Sherlock is approachable. Even though I guess it doesn't actually send requests.

Sherlock might not be my favorite.

Alright, @Vilageidiotx is my favorite tbh

One day, Sherlock Holmes and Watson are playing tennis when Watson spots a mobile phone right in the middle of the tennis court.

"Holmes, there's a suspicious object here!" he shouts.

"What can you deduce from this phone, Watson?" asks Sherlock Holmes with a mischievous smile.

Not to be put down this time, Watson remarks matter-of-factly, "This phone has many scratches. This shows that that the owner is pretty careless."

"The phone is not a smart phone. It has no features. This shows the owner is not tech savvy."

"The phone has the default wallpaper setup. This shows the owner is uncreative and probably a bit dumb."

"Ah, Watson!", Sherlock Holmes remarks, "This time your deductions are all correct! That last deduction really struck home. Now come on, quickly pick up your phone so that we can continue our tennis match."

-----

Just a little Sherlock Holmes humor to a fan from another.

Man did you ever read that one Neil Gaiman Sherlock Holmes story? Study in Emerald? Talk about a wild ride.

That's actually one I haven't read, but would like to. I still need to get and read through Lyndsay Faye's new collection of Sherlock Holmes stories. Her voice for Holmes and Watson are pretty impressive. She's my friend now, but I actually knew her for years through her writing first. (I got to meet her and work with her once I moved to the city because she lives here too.) Her book Dust & Shadows is still one of my favorite pastiches. (That one is Holmes versus Jack the Ripper.)

Oh nice. I don't think I ever read anything from her, but I might add Dust and Shadow to this summer's reading list. Gotta zone up my writing jujus before senior project next semester. Are there other books by her you might recommend first?

(I'd really recommend the short story collection that Study of Emerald is in too, Fragile Things has some great pieces in it, if you're looking to read it.)

Depends what you like to read. She does have several other stories. Her Gods of Gotham series seems to have a fairly broad appeal. She tends to write period things, not modern stuff, so I think you have to have an appreciation for the time period to really enjoy what she writes.

2 users and 18 guests -- that's the most people I've seen in Spam in a long time.

Fancy that.
