[catchacold]

HAS ANYONE SEEN THIS MAN?



Name: Ray Palmer

Also called: Boy Scout, Haircut, Stop, No

Last seen: On the roof, giant-sized. Before that he was hornet-sized. Basically he's never just right, it's very Goldilocks.

Characteristics: Puts his foot into his mouth. Metaphorically. Stumbles over his feet. Literally.

Suspicions: If he shrunk down again, he might have been sat on. Or eaten. Or been trapped under an upturned teacup. He fits, I tried.

Reward upon safe return: I'll take him off your hands, you won't need to pay me.

I'd be worried if he didn't use them.

I'm a fan of onomatopoeia.

With Barry, I'm worried on principle.

And of using big words, I gather.

[Yet he knew what it meant.]

Slow down for those of us who didn't go through higher schooling, Snowflake.

[trigeminalheadache]

Yes, but you're you.

[ She'll just leave out the bit where she always worries about Barry and Iris and Harry and everyone. All the time. ]

How would you put it without using the proper term, then?

[catchacold]

So I am. What does that mean?

[They are worrisome people, so he can't blame her.]

Spelling out sounds.

[trigeminalheadache]

Sometimes I think you're more worried about Barry than the rest of us.

Now that just looks silly.

I called dibs on him. Besides, not everyone's good at taking care of themselves. Barry's only marginally better than Ray.

But people could make sense of it.

[trigeminalheadache]

You can't call dibs on a person.

I'm sure people can also use context clues or ask if they have questions.

[catchacold]

I can't? Gosh. Whatever will I do now?

That's a great way to be exclusionary.

[trigeminalheadache]

Continue to be sarcastic, of course.

It's not exclusionary.

[catchacold]

Talking in a way that less educated people can't keep up with unless they admit to their ignorance and ask? Afraid it is, snowflake.

[trigeminalheadache]

Well, it certainly wasn't my intention.

[catchacold]

Unintentional elitism is the worst.

I'm just giving you a hard time. Relax, snowflake.

I've come to expect a hard time from you. So, not surprised.
