The new changes are nice.. except for Ivory Humeri

[Sir_Reginald_Monteroy]

@Eee

I have been in avid pursuit of Ivory Humeri, a veritable collector and connoisseur, and, having realized that my efforts were bounded by withering gazes and even accumulation of Scandal because of the company I had to keep during that pursuit, I resolved to spend much of October dedicated to the pursuit of Parabolan Orange-Apples, whereupon, like the proverbial ant who repeatedly goes back and forth laying in provisions for the coming harsh winter, so also did I trudge back and forth to Parabola with prodigious stocks of shards of bone, which, I should add, did nothing to remediate my reputation, and I did this in anticipation of Hallowmas, during which my scandalous behavior was not seen with derision, nay, but rather with praise in harmony with the season, and I accumulated something more than twice one hundred of the valuable bones, a frankly improbable number, most of which still remain in my possession, so I was greatly surprised when I learned this morning that there had been a great panic and thankfully that my preparations of such a large position had insulated me somewhat from The Great Bone Market Crash of '98.

Good for you. Foolish and imprudent were those of us who instead endeavoured to stockpile harvests upon harvests of parabolan fruit produce, only releasing them when in particular need of false-bone constructions.

While the Orange-Apple market did not crash quite so severely, we were denied even the indubitable honour of having our sad entrepreneurial efforts immortalized, never mind about recouping our losses.

Surely there is a lesson to be learned from our sad predicament, but I can’t seem to fathom it.
