Trying Hard Not To Make Pony Mad

QIC: Starfish

Date: 5/9/22

PAX: Schneider, Sea-Man, Sassy (WB), Boomerang (WD), Starfish (QIC)

Last Saturday, @ThePonyExpress started the marketing campaign early for the 5/14/22 edition of Purgatory by promoting live Wordle at Speas this coming Saturday.  During #Coffeeteria on Saturday, YHC threatened to steal that them and utilize it at his Q on Monday’s #VillageIdiocy.  @ThePonyExpress took offense at that suggestion and pointed his middle finger directly at YHC.  Whereas it was rather tempting to see how we could continue to poke @ThePonyExpress, YHC decided it would be better if we would do our very best to try not to make @ThePonyExpress mad this morning and so we stayed clear of his chosen theme.  Four other fine fellows, at least two of whom (@Schneider and @Sea-Man) had just completed an EC run, joined YHC for this morning’s episode in the continuing 8-year plus saga of #VillageIdiocy, and it went something like this:

Strong work out there this morning for a decidedly #OldSchool #Bootcamp.  It all seemed very #Crowdpleasing.  @Sassy sounded like he would have rather been playing wordle.  @Schneider’s watch checked the exercise box while we were still warming up.  @Sea-Man was our #LarryBird all morning @Boomerang put in extremely solid work as our #WarDaddy #DoubleRespect.

Probably not nearly as much fun as whatever #Pony is cooking up for Saturday.  But sufficient and effective.  3.5 on the Garmin scale.  Not a bad way to start the week.

Thanks for inviting me to lead @Sea-Man.  It was an honor and a privilege.

Your friend,

Starfish
