Long-suffering readers know that we do a lot of work on this house. You may recall Jonathan's mother saying 'I don't know why you even bought that house -- you've changed everything about it.' (Hi Pauline! If you're still snooping here, you should stop -- but you already know that.) We've just received another winning comment in this vein, this time from his father: 'By the time you finish all the DIY, it'll just be time to start it all over again.' To this I say:
A) How would you know? You've never lifted a finger to do any significant home maintenance or repair in your life. I understand that this refusal is a British tradition of some kind, but I actually care about the condition of my home & want it to last.
B) What are you talking about? The DIY we do is not about fashion. It's things like redoing the pointing, replacing floors, and insulating & rebuilding walls, none of which should need redoing in my lifetime. We do this work well & if future owners take good care of it, it should be there for the long haul.
I just . . . why look at a project in which someone has clearly invested time & effort and say 'I don't see why you bother with that -- it's pointless.' ? So incredibly rude & unnecessary. Feel free to make snide remarks to other people, but why would you say them to me? I would never dream of saying anything like this to someone working hard on something, even if it was not something I personally valued or wanted to do myself.
Mind you, these are the same people who told me RIGHT TO MY FACE that my exquisite taxidermy triceratops head was 'weird,' so they obviously don't know what's up & should probably simply be ignored. If only I had the self discipline to do that.

things that have happened recently in Wayne Manor:
Alfred removed all the curtains to air then out and discovered someone has been writing on them for years.
Cow shaped hooveprints were found on the hood of Dick's car
Cow shaped hooveprints were found on the hood of Jason's car
Damian decided to move out for a good two days before showing up again, and had been clingy since, weird
Tim found out he has a gluten allergy and has been in a one sided argument with Alfred over it.
Someone thought it was funny to hid every single mug in the house in Duke's closet it was not at all he opened it and a fed of the fell over and broke.
Cass fell asleep on the couch only to awake up in a completely different part of the house, her brother's fighting over what animated barbie movie to watch. They chose the twelve dancing princesses of course.

There's something deeply fucking wrong with you for having a gay character turn bi, especially after all the shit you wrote earlier. I hope you die screaming and alone, you fucking miserable, worthless, degenerate piece of shit. Absolutely nauseating. People like you are the worst possible part of the queer community and I wish I could kill you myself.
Fuck off.
