I guess when Lemony has some down time from being depressed over Beatrice and the Baudelaires, he's bitching about hats and people who don't like cake.

I am okay with this.

@oneeyedpigeon i know! j k rowling's voice: basic. pseudonyms bosch's voice: might as well shoot yourself. but Snicket's voice. =' ) it follows me in dreams. hushes my worries. go on youtube and type "flightless bird American mouth". if he sang the beggining half of the song while quietly playing his accordian, i would die melting into a puddle at his feet. =)
