Previously On Living Vicariously
Narrated by: Esereth Rageni Emari
We had another two-tale installment.
Savvy had an adventure on her own at the beauty parlor and came out with freshly painted nails. Prior to that, Sav had a quirky reunion with her cellphone thanks to her psychic Mother.
Mad experienced some drama dished out by the unscrupulous rake, BP. BP had the audacity to ask MK to make his reports (what a donkey, yeah you heard me).
The VN gang had an interesting Lunch meeting swapping stories about their lives. MK was the "Counselor" in charge of the discussion traffic control.
New Hobby
Hello Fabulous Readers,
Did you miss me? Yes, I'm aware that I've been absent for (by my count) 6 days? What? If you must know, the typhoon blew me away to Taiwan (It was horrible). I just arrived today.
So, what have you missed out on? Well, not much (I'm lying) you've missed out on a lot! So allow me to keep you up to speed on the adventures of the DD.
Spotted:
Savvy totally engrossed (eyes glued to the computer screen) typing away in her station, situated near the loo (that's British slang people, look it up). It seems blogging has become the rage these days since Mad was doing the same thing that Savvy was doing- if only they were paid to blog (sigh) the DD would have enough cash to buy A Mall (that was a gross exaggeration).
Usually the DD would clock out by 2:30pm to prowl A Mall for the double C's (as in, CLOTHES and CUTIES) but it seems things have changed.
It was noted last Friday, June 20, 2008 that MK stayed in the VN office till 8 in the evening to work on his blog. While Savvy who finished her blog by 3 pm was then seen entering a cab with Leeno Grey bound for his abode- I wonder what they did there?
To quote Mad: "Before you add color into something that is black and white (or something like that)" allow me to inform you that Savvy spent the afternoon at Leeno's house working up a sweat...
Err...
Boxing was the exercise of choice for the two, and both of them punched the air and laughed boisterously as the characters on the screen received the blows.
HUH?
It's called a Wii people. A new fangled contraption that has revolutionalized the video game world (I can hear the computer geeks cheer).
What is a Wii exactly?
To answer that. let me ask first: did you ever own or play with a Family Computer (Famicom) before? You know, it had Mario Brothers, Battle CIty and other games? Well, with the use of the chart of human evolution as our basis for comparison, the Family Computer is like the Ardipithecus ramidus of video game consoles (VGC), while Wii is the Modern Man of video game consoles (that is, until they invent a new one). Actually, the Famicom belongs to the 3rd generation of VGC's and the Wii belongs to the 7th generation- but I suppose you have drooled yourself to sleep with all this tech drivel huh?
In a nutshell: The DD have found a new hobby and it doesn't involve (Gasp!) shopping. On a rather irrelevant note: Savvy thinks the Wii rocks and is happy to report that she beat Leeno at Boxing, but he squashed her at Tennis.
Wicked man! doesn't he know that he's supposed to let the girl win? F.Y.I Savvy hates losing.

The Great Debate
Maddox (to Savvy):
"We are a perfect pair darling. I am immoral and you are moral. In the world, opposites do make the perfect match, for together we are amoral. Ergo, we balance each other out."
Definition:
Amoral
Not involving questions of right or wrong; without moral quality; neither moral nor immoral.
Spotted: June 24, 2008
Savvy and Mad engulfed in a fiery debate on the merits of Sex, much to the sheer delight of the VN gang.
You see, a week ago while Savvy was innocently playing word bump in Gaia (a site that is frequented by the VN gang - it has become a cult) some of the VN gang (the discussion was instigated by MK) were talking about Sex Positions. Sav almost fell off her chair when she heard them. Since her station is too far away from civilization, Sav was not able to contribute in the gang's animated discussion about Sex (as if she had anything to contribute).
Yesterday a small group gathered around the DD, and they were:
Miranda Kay (Mir K)
Shelly Eiffel (SE)
Jzabelle Omoso
Krystal Aquamarine Tee (KT)
Jessie Brodis (JB)
MK: Sav, for you to understand SEX you have to try it.
SR (Frowning)
Mir K: How do you know that you are with the right person? They say if you are to have sex with somebody, it should be with the right person.
MK: there is no such thing as "The Perfect Guy" and you'll never truly know if the person is right for you because we are all human and we commit mistakes from time to time. Perfection is overrated.
KT: If I were to have sex with someone, I want him to be faithful to me.
SR: Amen to that!
MK: That is too idealistic girls. In the real world SEX is SEX, perfect loves / lovers belong to fairytale stories. A guy doesn't have to do something drastic like sleep with someone else for his act to be construed as cheating. If a guy just gawks at another girl when he is with you, that can be counted as cheating because you can only imagine what kind of thoughts could be running in his mind.
JB: Men are biologically designed to cheat. Even if they don't act on it, men just can't help lusting after other women.
KT: But Why????
SR: (inserts theory): It is said that when you get married, Sex is like eating a home cooked meal, you get it everyday and it's convenient. Some men get tired of that (so they cheat) and would sometimes prefer to order out (have affairs) or enter a fast food joint (prostitutes) to get some sense of excitement.
JB: A home-cooked meal isn't that bad. Hey, I don't mind eating sardines everyday,
SE: Sex is a beautiful and exciting thing guys, it really would depend on the couple. The experience would either be memorable or horrible depending on the bond between the two people and the respect they have for each other.
It seemed like the debate was never going to end until KT mentioned that she was famished and well, at the mention of FOOD, the group dispersed. SR went back to her station to muse about what they have discussed for the day, while MK found another unsuspecting citizen, Debbie Benning (DB) to enlist into their growing cult.
Welcome to the dark side DB.

The Unbelievable Email
Spotted:
The VN gang eating lunch near their building. As their meal progressed, Shania Twain songs blasted out of the speakers, much to James Ray Desmond's chagrin- the girls and MK sang along.
MK dancing and lip sinking to "That Don't Impress Me Much"
I've known a few guys who thought they were pretty smart
But you've got being right down to an art
You think you're a genius-you drive me up the wall
You're a regular original, a know-it-all
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else
Okay, so you're a rocket scientist
That don't impress me much
So you got the brain but have you got the touch
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the night
That don't impress me much
When the gang returned to the office, they were greeted by Wendy Maxin (WM) and Lyn Fei (LF) who were a little outraged and hysterical about a certain email that arrived. Upon hearing this, the gang hurriedly approached WN's computer to read the email, what they read was unbelievable. As in, they couldn't believe what they read. The grammatical errors in the email would burn the eyes of an English teacher...
(Note from ERE: I'm not being mean here, if you knew what happened you would laugh)
I'm not going to keep you in the dark people, So here's the sordid tale...
Iago de Vil (IV) worked as a Photographer at Vanity Nexus. A couple of weeks ago he didn't show up for work and SR was only surprised to hear that he threw some temper tantrum about his Identification Card. Apparently, he called Lyn Fei at an ungodly hour just to inquire about his precious ID (take note: several phone calls were made). Screaming foul and throwing in the word "lawsuit" in the mix AND- here's the juicy part. IV managed to name drop a very affluent and powerful relative of his who would happily wreak havoc upon VN for the injustices committed against him.
Big question mark on top of everyone's head.
Tell me something IV is your ID made out of gold or something? Talk about bad manners, calling at odd hours, harassing LF (shame on you).
To quote KT: "That guy belongs in the looney bin"
This is the part where I talk about the "Unbelievable Email"
Quote from MK (on the subject of IV):
Wow! A Threatening letter from someone who is a threat to the English Language.
(as I type this, I am rolling on the floor laughing hard)
Get this, he sends the VN boss - Sir Dexter Cornelius Robinson (DR) a scathing email. Well, at least it would be a scathing email if it weren't so damn comical with the misspelled words and grammatical errors.
Hey IV?
When you said: Don't "waist" my time
Correction: Don't waste my time
It's called spell-check buddy, give it a go and send the email again so the gang can take you seriously.
The dude even had the cojones to threaten the boss! A collective sound of outrage came from the group.
Repeat after me: Psychopath
Who sends emails like that? talking about death threats and sending people to tail family members. The powerful IV must be related to Don Corleone (The Godfather). Were you making an offer that the big boss couldn't refuse IV?
Tell you what, take notes from Hannibal Lecter, if you want to be taken seriously, eat someone's brain- hopefully it would help you with the spelling.
Until then, to borrow your words: Don't waist the VN gang's time.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There you go fab readers, ERE is back with a vengeance and no piddling soul will be spared.
Until our next tale
TTFN
