Reversing, Reversing

Today on April’s Real Blog, my characters mainly reversed things. Jeremy took adrianne_p’s wonderful lead-in on Alexandra Love giving Jeremy mixed signals about what she wanted to go with a completely confused Jeremy who reversed everything that aprilp_katje posting as April and adrianne_p posting as Alexandra Love did or said about the situation.

With Howard, qnjones took aprilp_katje’s lead-in for an eating disorder clinic, gave it a name, and put Howard, April and Becky there to rescue Gerald. Normally with eating disorder clinics you expect the regimen for eating to be very strict with only specific healthly foods allowed. I decided to reverse that with Howard to make it a place where the patients (oops clients) are given very bad things to eat. qnjones followed that up with a kickass dropdead funny post. I am convinced now that in every one of my lead-in posts for qnjones’ Becky, I should put a frying pan in Becky’s hands.

With the good constable, instead of snarking on the characters presented in the strip, I reversed the emphasis to be on characters not in the strip and snarked on Elly’s cooking ability and not Deanna’s. Elly, in the strip, is generally presented as the main cook for family get-togethers. I found it very amusing that in the monthly letters, the Elly food that Liz mentions as loving the most not once, but two times, is her meatloaf. Not exactly high praise, but it worked well with the Paul post.

Tomorrow’s strip. Mira is always wrong, no matter what she opposes, as far as Deanna is concerned. Wilfred’s choice of TV programs is actually pretty entertaining. Mike bangs his head against the wall when he is upset. That last one has to be some sign of mental illness, but I don’t know which one.
