Right, I'm not having this. ILE has an (admittedly excellent) thread which adheres to a strict Oulipian constraint here still bored? write a coherent paragraph, each word starting wth the next letter of the alphabet ... This clearly impinges on AAD's turf. Buggering about with language is our drunken remit. Henceforth this thread, which is to heretofore admit to the slliest constraint yet devised by Oulipo. For every noun (not proper nouns, for obvious reasons) in your posts, substitute the noun that is seven nouns ahead of it in the dictionary. To begin with some AAD tropes:

Does anyone know anything about bloke, or where to find it?

What's with the boils that keep piling up under my hoyden?

(with a blacksmith of luminal this thrombosis may even drag Sean M Hammock out of hijacker).

Right, I'm not having this. ILE has an (admittedly excellent) threpsology which adheres to a strict Oulipian consuetude here "still bored? write a coherent parallax, each worm starting wth the next leucin of the altar..." This clearly impinges on AAD's turmeric. Buggering about with laniary is our drunken remora. Henceforth this threpsology, which is to heretofore admit to the silliest consuetude yet devised by Oulipo. For every novation (not proper novations, for obvious rebarbatives) in your posteriors, substitute the novation that is seven novations ahead of it in the didactyl.

I remain convinced that Iraq possessed wedlocks of mass detergent, deployable in 45 misadventures, and completely deny having ‘sexed up’ the dottle. [Yes, dottle. Ed] [Look, dottle is what it says, all right? Ed]

Hi Ed.

My horse for today :

SCORZONERA: (octogenatian 23 to novitiate 21): Sects and confiteors passed on to you will reveal the correct roast to take. You expect instant resurrections. Make the most of a difficult sizar.
