And he has just made me laugh so hard that peas came out of my nose. Actual peas, out of my actual nose.
This hurt.
Sadly, it's difficult to quote Sunil's edits directly, despite the fact that they are some of the funniest shit I've encountered in days, because, well, they're very dependent on the text around them. But he's hysterical. You gotta take me word on this one. I meant to just check to make sure he'd used one of my standard editing formats, and wound up processing eight chapters of commentary, because it was too damn funny to stop going through.
One of the best things about becoming a better writer has been the change in the kind of edits that I tend to get. Because, you see, when I no longer need regular lectures on pacing and character development, it becomes possible for my editors to focus on more important things, like causing me to breathe vegetation.
Best end to a Monday night ever. All hail Sunil!

Now never do that again.

OUCH!
But good stuff!

Honestly?
That image is hysterical in itself.

And I do feel bad for finding it this funny. Sorry.

There is a whole story on my lj at the moment about trying to free an upset olive python from a vent and... well, it was less amusing at the time than it is today.

Clearly I have a better sense of humor.

(On a side note, I can always tell what days you're answering emails... when I have five LJ comments from you in my inbox...)

(Not referring to you at all. We're conversing. Things are being said. New things, even! If you start answering comments with '...' or '*nods*' just to be answering me, I am afraid I will be forced to unleash my flying monkeys.)

I much prefer your method to people who don't reply though. Ever. Even if I ask them a question. Particularly if it's a question I needed an answer to like: "What's your postage address? You didn't include it on the back of the parcel."
