Each night Father fills me with dread, As he sits at the foot of my bed. It's not that he speaks In gibbers and shrieks. It's for 15 years he's been dead. E.Gory
@Teripie I got so excited about that, I tried starring it repeatedly. I have the book, and my little guy used to insist I read it to him when he was 3 or 4. Good to know at least one of my kids ended up weird like me!
@jaremelz I think people who don't like Gorey are weird! I had one of the books but lent it and lost it. A few years ago my son got me the deck of fortune telling cards. Not the original, but really nice anyway.
@Teripie@jaremelz Do you get emails from edwardgoreyhouse.org ? They have a design an envelope thing going on now for halloween. LINK All age groups. I wish I were talented enough to enter. I blame @sohmageek for that.
@jaremelz But you made TTM and drew the goat story and other things my mind is currently blanking on (damn you @sohmageek ! ) . You should go for it ! I don't remember all the rules. But maybe you could make it 3D w/ a little felted Gorey critter. Not sure it would work to mail hmmm......, but that's my creative input. Post it here ! (as long as it doesn't disqualify you to do so of course. )
@ceagee Once I get this goat off my back (the end of the story) I'll try. My husband might have to as well, he's the real artist in my book. I'll just have to prod him to get a little dark and creepy!
A goat you've been crowned at last, For the torment you caused in the past. Don't worry my friend, For soon it will end. And this month will pass by you so fast.
Goat, goat, I don't mean to bloat, but all the blame you have to tote, we'll lay it on, pile it on, slam it on too, until the weight of the world will be upon you. @sohmageek
Time for a practice run @sohmageek I blame you for..... @sohmageek it's totally your fault for..... @sohmageek ......how could you? It's all your goaty fault damnit.
I'M FREE!
Have fun @Sohmagoat!
@mfladd You're "frea".
@marklog That strangely looks like a dog...
I blame... oh shit... I guess @sohmageek.
First we have the goat roping, then the goat roasting. I guess the picture is a preview of the actual goat forking.
I have nothing to say. I blame @somahgeek for my lack of inspiration.
@Teripie @sohmageek can't miss out on getting tagged....
@marklog You are a little snot, aren't you? Tag. You're it!
@Teripie I'm sorry have you tried reading a naughty limerick.. I used to know one but all that comes out now is bleat
@marklog I'm not a genie
Congratulations and good luck!
Each night Father fills me with dread,

It's not that he speaks

@Teripie I'm a huge Edward Gorey fan!
@jaremelz This is in my guest room waiting for my son to find a place to install in his new home. I really wish I could keep it.

@Teripie Ooh, lucky you! I used to get side eye from my husband for reading it to our boy. He's terribly, terribly normal. Poor man.

@ceagee I'm sorry your mind is blank, you haven't seen men like this recently have you?
@ceagee Oh I missed one.. I'm sorry I think you can draw better than me however..
@sohmageek of course I can ;-)
A goat you've been crowned at last,
For the torment you caused in the past.
Don't worry my friend,
For soon it will end.
And this month will pass by you so fast.
Congrats @sohmageek!

@sohmageek My pleasure, glad you approve! Though it would be your fault if you didn't, so...
