Infinite Oregano

I'm going to make my friends eat infinite oregano and they'll have to do it because the recipe says so!

These avant-garde updates are fun and all but I feel like they are a bit short and don't move the story along very much.

I know this is a controversial opinion and the FactsAreUseless™ official fan-club is probably going to lynch me but I will not be silenced! I'm sick of people telling me I just "don't get" the underlying subtext or that "it's the words that he's not writing that make it so inspiring". There is a beautiful rainbow of words that everyone is not writing Steve, you don't know everything, jerk.

This man stole the "angry at Steve" meme, which I invented.

I think you just did. I thought it was pretty good, at least.

Although, to be honest, nothing can beat FactsAreUseless updates, let's be real. This is only the BEST LP.

You have to ask me in PMs, although they don't have to be PMs on this site. Try asking me on the other, unpassworded offsite.

This world of ours is so violent and full of conflict and death, sometimes its nice to reflect on the eternal and appreciate that which will live on forever. This thread will never die, I know this, you know this, everyone loving knows this is the point that I am getting at.

When you are old and decrepit, lying in a pool of your own blood and feces and preparing to spit one last defiant mouthful of blood towards the heavens think on this thread, think of the heady highs and ground shattering lows it has brought forth into this world. Think of the heroes, the villains, the heartbreak and the sheer stupidity that led to the creation of such a marvel, that such a thing could be crafted and refined by human hands.

This thread will never die and it mocks your mortality.

You folks remind me of something. The case of the woman who slept next to her dead husband's decomposing body for a year.

There comes a time when you have to face reality and bury the dead, you know.

I don't know why this is an "if", this thread isn't dead at all, and never will be.

Still, that is a spooky surprise that I will wait patiently for. :allears:

The update is about ghosts, it is not a ghost. Lavender Town contains several ghosts, which this information-style Let's Play will examine in detail.

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.
Thread is not dead which can eternal lie
And with strange aeons even death may die

Behind the scenes LP fact: I thought about printing out a Weed Goku and some other pictures from various updates and doing a little puppet show, but I don't have a printer and I hate April Fool's. I might hold on to the idea.
