The (Questionable) Morals and Values of Izzy and The Ginge

As much as Izzy and I adhere to the statement "Never fux in '09'', it's time there was an informational tutorial about the core values in which we live our lives.

1) Never fux in '09
 The origin of "no fux" began in 2007, when a good friend of Izzy's decided that an appropriate New Years' resolution would be "no fux in '07".  This eventually became "still no fux in '08" and, to continue the non-relinquishing of fux, "never fux in '09".  This is sometimes interchanged with the term "goose fux", which came about accidentally when Izzy's ADD decided to go on a rampage one day; luckily Ginger was there to 1) get her back on track and 2) witness the glorious creation that is "goose fux" and thus make mental note of the term to use later.  The term "fux" is an abbrev of "fucks" as most can probably deduce, and to give goose fux about something is to in fact not care at all.  The word goose was added because a zero can sometimes be referred to as a goose egg.  Also, and more importantly, geese are notorious for never ever giving fux, even in the most dire circumstances.  Thus, we never give a fuck in 2009.

2) Drugs and business mix nicely
Now, it's probably no surprise that Izzy and I advocate freely the use of hippie drugs.  We lay around and are silly and come up with excellent ideas, so why not?  I think that marijuana is a victimless crime, and should be legalized.  It would have been legalized in the late eighties and early nineties and was almost granted, but then crack blew up the streets and sent all of us hippies back to a life of hardcore criminal behavior (aka smoking in my bed with no pants on). I digress. There is nothing wrong with a little mind alteration, especially when near a kitchen to make delicious delicacies.  Seeing as we live in a gnome cottage, we live around very large and colourful fungi, somewhat like Smurfs (although that's where the similarities stop).  You get the picture.

3) Machetes and capes are always necessary for every occasion
Izzy keeps hers in the trunk of her car, mine is in the living room for easy retrieval when leaving on crime-fighting missions.  The point is, one must keep everything on hand that are daily requirements. Capes are always appropriate attire for any event, whether formal or informal.  Machetes are useful for cutting down heavy rainforest vines, signaling traffic, and making stir-fry. The point is, don't leave the house unprepared.

4) Everyone likes pirates and dinosaurs
Even Hallmark had a "Grandmas like dinosaurs" commercial, and who doesn't like to wear a singular earring and add "ARR!" to prelude every sentence? I routinely draw cartoon dinosaurs doing various activities instead of classwork and send them to numerous friends and relatives.  A dinosaur holding a valentine is much more romantic than a plain old valentine, and a Mother's Day song is a little sweeter when sung as a sea shanty with a mug of ale.  So make the day better, add a dinosaur or pirate.


Peace and Pasties,
Ginger
