The goodness of the true pun is in the direct ratio of its intolerability.

A question, dear flist:

If you were running a spring fanworks fest, what would you name it? (Keeping in mind that I am likely to steal your answer...)

Quick poll:

[Poll #1681905]

Also: what other phrases/sayings can you think of that are about spring?

For some great Sherlock fic reading, here is a Masterlist of all the works produced for Sherlockmas's Christmas fanworks exchange. :D


In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt. ~Margaret Atwood

Why is it not spring now??? I want to dig in my garden!!!

No help on the title, but I do have 'spring has sprung, the grass is riz, I wonder where the fanfic is?' as a tagline, lol.

Haha, that is amazing!

[ladybracknell.livejournal.com]

TY :D. I write this stuff for work - cheesy tweaked pop culture references pay my bills, and it's really hard to turn it off, lol.

[rachel2205.livejournal.com]

That's awesome. I'm also intrigued now as to what you do... Advertising?

[ladybracknell.livejournal.com]

Got it in one :D. I'm a copywriter - online ads mostly, with a lot of truly horrendous puns. My best one last week was something like, 'Hey Sherlock, did you know the body has two brains?' 'Alimentary, my dear Watson. One in the head and one to govern the digestive system.' I used that to sell discount colonic hydrotherapy. sometimes I hate my life but I get to watch a lot of YouTube vids for inspiration so it could be worse

[rachel2205.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahaha, "alimentary"?! You are a genius!

[ladybracknell.livejournal.com]

Thanks :D.

[apple-pathways.livejournal.com]

THAT is excellent! But you don't want to know what I thought you were going to rhyme with 'riz'...

[ladybracknell.livejournal.com]

Oh, all right then - spring is sprung, the grass is riz, write us stuff to make us... appreciate things like rainbows and daffodils in the context of intellectual crime-fighting.

Catchy! :P
