Typical slow days at the office with the Ladies of Dunder Mifflin.
one: i can not even begin to tell you how delighted i was that you stole your title from something i said. i was so amused, i actually called my mom to tell her. seriously. i am a huge dork.
two: you are so ridiculously funny, it makes me ashamed of my own wilted sense of humor. shame on me and my lame plot points.
three: the end of this chapter made me laugh so hard...sigh...i snorted. yes, you read that right. i snorted. this is not a drill, people. i have officially been declared as a snorter in my place of work. it is *so* humiliating. and yet...totally worth it.
i will happily snort again for another chapter. :0)
oh, you bugger! what the hell does that email say? crappity crap-ass, how am i supposed to just wait...yeesh. alright, i'll buy time by telling you you're ridiculously awesome. and the summary of the night? hi-larious. rock on.
Author's Response:
OK this is the most awesome review EVER!
Never in my life has someone called me a BUGGER! AWESOME! Itmade my day. I went around work saying "bugger" all day. Everyone thought I was channeling Hugh Grant! They're a bunch of idiots.
And Crappity Crap-Ass? I'm going to use that! Do you mind if I completely pilfer your awesome vocabulary?
MARRY ME! I LOVE YOU
holy crizz-ap. that...whole...thing. it was just...brilliant. i may never write again. you are too awesome, and i am shamed in comparison. can't wait for more.
(also...feeling slightly braggy because i got to read both versions of chapter 11. it's like...second drink, but with chapters. aaaaaaaawesome.)
WOW! Did not expect that.
If you stop writing, you know what will happen right? Your legion of fans will come after me with stakes made out of mops!!!
I had to change Chapter 11 because my boyfriend really liked it. He has awful taste. Plus... he thinks Karen is "HOT" so... we don't want too much Karen. Is that mean?
NO! you can't just STOP THERE! this is too ridiculously amusing! i'm freaking loving it. yeesh. what am i gonna do with the whole rest of my day, now that i don't have any more of this to read? ca-rap...i guess i'll just have to wait until you update again. dammit.
::whistles::
so...got any more yet? :0)
Yay! Double dose!
i am in love with you. in your group of friends, you *must* be the funny one. (otherwise, you must have some *crazy* funny friends.) cuz HOLY CRAP! i can't tell you how many times my coworkers have given me odd looks today because i randomly burst out laughing as i read this story. seriously. ridiculously amusing. i fully look forward to as many updates as possible, as often as possible. thank you and LOVE.
Author's Response:
Oddly enough, everyone thinks I'm the straight one in the family. But hell, they're a bunch of freaks! Happy Valentine's Day!! And by the way, I'm one of the legion of devoted fans who love TURNABOUT'S FAIR PLAY!
AHH! hahahahaha. yes, i actually had to type out my "ha"s, because it was simply that funny. i can't believe pam is tricking angela into owning up to a relationship nobody else knows she's in...without anyone else even realizing it! you're like...the smartest person *ever*.
wow.
see this? this is me in awe.
oh my goodness. i love it. love it, love it, love it. i'm *so* glad you've got at least another 14,981 chapters to go. i'm not sure i'd be satisfied with anything less. :0) and a WiP is a Work in Progress. it's a fic that you post as you write, as opposed to a fic that you finish entirely before posting. WiPs are notorious for going on a *lot* longer than you had first intended. i have a very bad habit of not finishing WiPs. i'm *still* surprised that i managed to finish turnabout. luckily, i can now keep myself occupied by reading this. (because, hey, *practically* an eternal WiP. and an eternal WiP is a beautiful thing.) SWEET!
Author's Response: Work in Progress? Ok, well that's just reasonable. I was really expecting something more... subtle... like "Whacked in Penis." OK back to writing, back to writing, everyone wants to know what's up with Jim!
Pam finally gets pushed over the edge when it comes to Jim and his new girlfriend. Post-Ben Franklin. AUGH! i need more than that. it's too good! what an auspicious start. i fully look forward to more!
Author's Response: Ask and you shall receive. Ch. 2 is now up. Thanks!
It all starts at Phyllis' Wedding. Jim and Pam's lives completely change after they've both moved on....to New York City, that is.
holy hell, you can't leave it like that! there has to be more! fluff, i tell you! fluff!
holy ca-rap...i always feel so drained after i read this. it's like "uuuuuggghhhhh..." my heart aches and my eyes are watery and the back of my throat is sore. so sad. but i love it sooooo much. aboslutely famished for more.
Author's Response:
Awwww! I'm sorry for the draining, but I'm glad that you still like it :)
(p.s. I'm totally addicted to Turnabout's Fair Play and I don't want it to eeeeend!)
you damn well better! gah! i do love me some angst, but i desperately need uberfluff immediately afterwards. geez. *now* what am i supposed to do? just go through the rest of the day acting like i'm *not* desperate for more of this? because i'm not sure i can handle the intrigue. lol.
Author's Response: LOL! I loooooove your series, so I'm glad you liked this. I can't promise uberfluff in the next chapter, but I can tell you that I hate unhappy endings.
oh my crap. i *love* Jimpot.
Author's Response: Wow. I never expected Jimpot to go over so well! Glad you liked it. Also, props for saying "oh my crap"-- Love it.
marginal! i love it! that made it perfect.
Author's Response: Thank you! "Perfect" is high praise, indeed!
lol. i loved it. it was great. so insightful! and it has some really funny bits, too. awesome. (my favorite was the dwight chapter. wonderful!)
Author's Response:
Thanks!!! I really like climbing into character's heads. And I like that for the most part all of the situations presented here were each of them acting on their own, not by the urging of someone else.
It really means a lot to me that you enjoyed it.
cheers.
--Lex
you made me love ryan. ... weird.
:0) ridiculously good. love.
Now that he's with Jan, there's so much Michael's learned about love. He feels obligated to spread the word. Set sometime Season 3-ish but not specific.
aww! obliviously sweet michael! i love obliviously sweet michael! monthaversary. brilliant.
Author's Response: Awww thanks! I'm so glad you liked it!!!
8 The ladies get a turn. Spoilers up to Phyllis' Wedding. AWESOME! oh, and the one with phyllis and tom...greatest last line ever. le sigh. delightful. FAVORITE!
Author's Response: Thanks, ficklevillain!
Pam spills her secret, but Karen is listening.
SNEAKY! sneaky girl, with your twisty little surprise ending! uh...if only it would actually happen that way. LOVE.
Author's Response: Thank you! Something has to happen SOON.
Jim's with Karen. Pam's with Roy. Misery all around until Pam fights to find her passion again. In her art and in her love life.
uhhhhhh. all the air just sort of left me. my coworker got kinda worried when i forgot to inhale again. yeesh. seriously need to know what happens next. i may literally die of curiosity. :0)
Author's Response:
Don't do that! LOL.
I'll get it up as quickly as I can.
Yup, it’s a post-Cocktails fic! With a bit of a twist. Karen does a bad thing, and Jim is about to suffer the consequences…OHHOLYCRAPWHATTHEHELL?! jeez, and they say *i'm* bad with cliffhangers. are you crazy? you can't just stop there! if i was a demanding person, i would demand that you continue *immediately*. but i'm not. (you're very lucky.) instead, i shall only *strongly suggest* that you continue...immediately. :0) awesome, by they way. really interesting. good dialogue, too. yay!
Author's Response:
HA! I had a feeling you might take issue with my cliffy. Well, it's okay when I do it!
I have to take a nap (running on 3 hours sleep... ugh) and then write two papers. And then watch Lost. But I swear I'm working on it :)
aww, rock on! great descriptions. don't be done, though! i want to see what happens when he sees roy leave and then when pam sends him a text and tells michael about...oh, hell. you know. :0) you are just too awesome for words, i simply don't want this to end!
Author's Response: "Leave 'em wanting more", so they say. I guess this story did that! Sorry, but I don't think there can be more. In any case, watching the footage from the Scranton film crew would not tell Jim about the text message; all he would see is Pam using her cell phone for something. We only know she called Jim because the final cut includes footage from the Stamford crew, of his cell phone vibrating. If Jim thought anything of her using her cell phone, he would probably conclude she was calling Roy!
Pam's discovered the world of internet chat rooms. Jim can't resist the chance to be near her in cyberspace. Spoilers up to Cocktails. HA! I LOVE YOU! squirrel mcpants. awesome. and a great premise too. so many possibilities. i am *very* much looking forward to this one. :0)
Author's Response: Thanks, ficklevillain! I hope to provide as much entertainment as possible as we wait out this hiatus!!!!
AUGH! BAD KAREN! oh, MAN!
ca-rap. it's like...i wanna go on and on about how much i love it and how badly i want another chapter, but i just can't muster the strength. i'm too enthused about what i just read, and too curious about what's gonna happen next to even think of the right words. ooh, that damned KAREN! i can't *wait* for the next bits.
i loooooooove you! guh...and yet, you are *killing* me!
