   Scumber.

   (I adore this, as well as the cards for the ferret and the rabbit. Very much looking forward to more.)

   zounds!

   i never expected that one day my site would be linked to from clusterflock in a way that wasn’t me just christopher-walkening some of my own posts. and by andrew simone, no less.

   Mister Raynor, mister, those cards are the bestest ever.

   thanks. that really means a lot. i have always enjoyed animal nomeclature lists, but they are always indexed by term rather than animal. i thought it was high time to reverse this!

   and the amount of animal-specific words is crazy. just wait til the sheep card hits the streets.

   Might there be a donkey card?

   Cindy, is it an ass card you desire?

   shoot. I am just a dude who likes good things. that thing was good.

   Therefore, etc.

   uh…actually…a donkey card was one of the six that i originally made. ass jokes aplenty.

   fox shit needs to be re-written then.

   Found fox scumber,
   under my pillow,
   makes for a shitty slumber.

    I did note a reference to the transformation of asses into donkeys (and of cocks into roosters). One hopes to see a donkey card. Hope springs eternal.

    “Shitty slumber.” I like that an awful lot. Puts me in mind of chitty-chitty bang-bang.

12. raynor on January 15th, 2009 at 3:32 pm

    …and of the transformation of asses and camels.

    also: there is definitely something vile-sounding about the word scumber, whereas billetings calls to mind a string of shooting bb’s.
