So, y'know how sometimes you feel as though you ought to come with some kind of warning label, so that people know what they're getting into when they enter into conversation with you?

I sometimes think that (at least one of) mine should be "Warning: I will tell you the story of the Þrymskviða at the slightest provocation."

I mean, I think that people mostly enjoy it when it happens and it's not as though I start my day thinking, "Today I will tell people stories about Thor in a dress!" But it happens more often than is probably strictly necessary.

What warning labels do you think you ought to come with?

Actually, I would like to be able to have that warning label attached. I have the basics of the story, I think... frost giants steal the hammer, Thor wants to go SMASH, Loki convinces him to go in as a bride for one of the frost giant bigwigs, Thor gets dressed up, the gods all wolf-whistle and make catcalls about the attractive man, the frost giants wolf-whistle and make catcalls about the attractive women, Thor demands the hammer as the bride present, there's a wedding, and then...

THOR SMASH.

Loki busts a gut, totally "LMFAO, d00d", and everyone heads back to Asgard.

I think that's it, anyway.

As for warning labels, my biggest one is "Knows many things that he should have no reason knowing, because he read it or heard it from someone."
