Poor your friend too, although if she’ll miss it, I guess it does have its upsides. I do get it-
Back in the 90s, I was designing book covers for what amounted to an eBook vanity press (this was way before stuff like smartphones, let alone Kindles, so you were expected to read on your browser on a computer). It was a stupid company run by a crook, but I do admit, some of the books that we got were absolutely hilarious.
Even all of these years later, I will never forget this biography line:
DawnStar has never been the same since “the head injury.”
She put it in quotes like that too. It was quite the book. I don’t remember a lot, it was mostly incoherent ramblings about the sort of stuff someone who writes “the head injury” would write, but there was one part I do remember, which was a pitch for a TV series that involved the universe hatching out of an egg laid by a giant cosmic chicken. And this was not meant to be funny.
Also last night I looked at the members of some of the sovcit groups I’m in and discovered some of my friends had friends who are in the groups. Two of them had no idea they had sovcit friends.
Jenna is negotiating a raise for dealing with this shit.
My friend is just leaving a job where she deals with sovcits and their forms, and she says she’ll miss the crazy a little.

Does belongong to the group make one a SovCit?
Do you belong to one of those groups?
I belong to several but just for the laughs. Definitely not a sovcit.
Oh dear. That’s not good.
Well thankfully they weren’t anyone they knew well.
Some people really like chickens.
Reminds me of a pretty interesting short story by Andy Weir.
I love books like that. They’re hilarious.
