H_Quinn: So, Red, didja see that new guy on the cellblock?
The_Joker: Then I said to him, Why is a raven like a writing desk? Oh, boy, you should have seen Jervis's face. I've never laughed so hard in my life. And that of course, is hard to imagine!
The_Joker: Because it's a lie! Hah!
Just_us: Grr, annoying brat. What's your email again?
P_Ivy: Whose?
H_Quinn: Hey, I am not an annoying brat!
Just_us: Not you. Him.
H_Quinn: [email protected]!
The_Joker: You didn't change it yet, Harley? A one legged snake moves faster than you!
H_Quinn: :blushes:: Eeep!
H_Quinn: left the room
The_Joker: I'm telling you all, good help is hard to find. If you want someone done right you have to have to pay top dollar and be prepared to stiff 'em afterwards, or maybe just leave 'em a stiff. LOL
P_Ivy: Or you could do it yourself.
The_Joker: But what's the fun in that, my dear?
The_Joker: Why do you need my email anyway Harvey?
Just_us: The psycho impersonator pseudo daughter sent us something to forward to you. She sent us spam
P_Ivy: Well, maybe there was a reason. Did you take the time to read it?
Just_us: :snorts:: Time is money, that's something we both can agree on.
P_Ivy: Typical male, not listening, forward it to me I'll take a look.
Just_us: Makes no difference here.
H_Quinn: joined the room
H_Quinn: I'm baaa-aa-aaa-ck!
P_Ivy: Wb, Harley.
The_Joker: Welcome Back, pooh.
H_Quinn: Your new email is mistah_j@ arkham.corrections.gc.us
The_Joker: Has anyone ever wondered about the rhymes for corrections? I mean the government is truly shafting us. I crack myself up.
P_Ivy: So that's why you think you're here.
Just_us: Okay, email sent, to both of you.
P_Ivy: Okay, hang on. BRB.
P_Ivy: left the room.
H_Quinn: So what'dya think Mr. J? Do you like?
The_Joker: Tsk. It's not as awe inspiring or grandiose as I would have liked, but I suppose it's good Harley. It lacks that 'I'm-going-to-eat-your-liver-with-chianti' quality. But, I suppose it has a certain, as the Americans say (because they're too stupid to know French), "I don't know what"
The_Joker: Three points for effort, Harl'!
H_Quinn: But the points are made up :(
The_Joker: No, no, no, no! It's the show where the games are made up, and the points don't matter. Yes that's right, the points are like the IQ of Terry McGinnis.
Just_us: Who?
The_Joker: How should I know? I'm misunderstood! No, I take that back, I'm just psychotic!
H_Quinn: :mumbles:: The points don't matter... I get it now! :)
P_Ivy: joined the room
P_Ivy: Back, you didn't bother reading it Harvey.
P_Ivy: It's an online dating service. Superheroes _only_
The_Joker: How dare they? That's an outrage! That's immoral! That's descrimination!
H_Quinn: And it's not nice either.
The_Joker: I want my lawyer!
The_Joker: Oh, nevermind, I killed my lawyer. You want the job Harvey?
Just_us: We wouldn't even want to be on your retainer.
The_Joker: Which reminds me, you'd get dental. Gotta keep those pearly whites, eh Harvey boy?
Just_us: Get away from me clown.
P_Ivy: But get this, it's completely automated, and anonymous.
The_Joker: I wonder if the ad means that.
Just_us: We should test it out.
P_Ivy: That's what I think.
Croc_K: joined the room
P_Ivy: Oh no.
H_Quinn: Yippee! I can get paired with my puddin'
Croc_K yells "Hey Kool-Aid!" and crashes into a brick wall
The_Joker: So it's agreed we all email in. Don't forget to spread the word.
Croc_K yells "Hey Kool-Aid!" and crashes into a brick wall
H_Quinn: Yep!
P_Ivy: Of course
Just_us: You've got it.
Croc_K yells "Hey Kool-Aid!" and crashes into a brick wall
Croc_K yells "Hey Kool-Aid!" and crashes into a brick wall
The_Joker: left the room
H_Quinn: left the room following The_Joker
P_Ivy: left the room
Just_us: left the room

Croc_K yells "Hey Kool-Aid!" and crashes into a brick wall
Croc_K yells "Hey Kool-Aid!" and ...
