018. Diagnosis

I had the attitude before it was cool. Come off of it. Unoriginal and uncharacteristic. You fluff balls will be just writing about this for days in gory detail of how you threw out your tree and stomped the presents you choose to keep.

Doesn't make sense anyway. If you hated the holiday, you wouldn't have decorated. You wouldn't have bothered celebrating. Ordinary day and ordinary attitude with indifference to the cheer oozing out of every other person's pore. This curse written all over it. Or there are mass brain tumors. That would be a Christmas miracle.

Looks like I still live in an annex territory of the North Pole with the biggest, gayest elf since Liberace.

I'm going to hope your dislike of christmas doesn't extend as far as to throw things at carolers?

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Too much effort. I can just have The Who carol back to you.

Good to know we won't be recieving any attacks from you at least.

Just aggressive indifference.

[identity profile] freckle-queen.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Can we sway your indifference by doing song requests?

"The Sound of Silence" in four part harmony.

I... walked right into that one. We'll be skipping over that in favor of Silent Night.

Not everyone likes Simon and Garfunkel.

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch.

You're as cuddly as a scalpel, you're as charming as a douche?

You've got record deal material right here.

Liberace was an elf?

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
The stature, the talent and penchant for glitter....doesn't it make sense?

... I almost wonder if Ingram's getting the reverse of it.

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Sedate him. I'm sure he'll thank you later.

[identity profile] lyra-of-dust.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
He's acting cheerful, not manic.

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you think he'd want to be remembered as cheerful?

[identity profile] lyra-of-dust.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
No. But I don't really care.

Brain tumors are a Christmas miracle to you?

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Multiple brain tumors for me to treat, that would be a Christmas miracle. Further proof that this seasonal mentality is severely flawed.

And here I thought that sour attitude was just during work.

[ OOC: She does legal paperwork at the hospital so she's probably seen him and his attitude with patients. ]

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not the kind to leave my attitude at the door. Just comes along anyway. I figure it's refreshing.

[identity profile] legislated.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
Bad attitudes are a dime a dozen.

[ OOC: Well she works there like 6 days a week so...she'd probably see him at least once a week, and...yes. I imagine House would make an impression even in passing. XD And damnit she was more expressive before her paid account died. ]

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe. Except for when you're a Mercury print dime. Then all the other one's look pretty shabby and the same.

[identity profile] legislated.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
A what? Well, you might think yourself better than everyone else, but you're stick here just like all of us.

Thanks, Captain Obvious for the reminder.

Will receive a present go against "the attitude"?

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
No, it wouldn't. I think all things considered I've been a good boy this year.

[identity profile] holymadonna.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
That dismiss the lump of coal I had already wrapped.

I know you are allergic to magic as I am, but what about advanced technology?

((OOC: She's going to give him some sci fi medtech)).

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sure it'll be of some used to you. Keep it around.

I like the sound of that.

[identity profile] holymadonna.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
The present won't longer be a surprise, but at least it will be welcome.

The question is... why are you living with a gay elf?

[identity profile] vicodincrutch.livejournal.com 2007-12-23 10:52 am (UTC)(link)
Higher ups are conducting a social experiment.
