Maybe too many of the green pills?

Great capture Mr. Flibble!

I about fell out of my seat. Please don't you! Self-portraitures are a pain in the butt! <- no pun intended

I don’t know how you do it!

Flib--your glasses must need a cleaning. The theme is slow motion--NOT slow movement! Looks like a DQ to me for not understanding the assignment

. DQ=dumb quotient

Just kidding of course. As always your genius come out--oops another pun.

This is too much!! Who else would have thought of taking a picture of the WC for the WA? You have revealed a serious commitment to real-world photography; however, something doesn't smell quite right about this scene. You seem to be in deep (thought) over something strange or unpleasant. Are you pondering a constitutional issue? Has there been a work stoppage? A strike by the united paperworkers union? What?

Perhaps if you and the Mrs. put your heads together, you will be able to flush it out and get to the bottom of things. Until then, please, and I repeat, please hang in there.

Remote shutter release, timer, patience. RSRTP for short.

Still here. Still waiting. Wireless keyboards. Wonderful.

*nnnngggghhhhhh*

Nope. Still nothing.

Jane, you made me change the title to better reflect the theme, ty.

I was sat on the toilet, thinking of slow things when inspiration struck. Sadly, it was a further 47 minutes before I was able to re-enact my moment of inspiration.

Splendid.

I had in my head YMCA instead of WCWA, but it all went a bit wrong. For starters the Indian chappy said his feather headress was at the dry cleaners, the road worker had had a work related accident. The cowboy was up for it, but he was charging £3500 an hour. The traffic cop was busy chasing an ice cream van that overcharged a little lad, the sailor had drunk too much rum. Which just left me with the guy that looked a little... er.. of the other persuasion, and frankly I wasn't about to invite him into my bathroom when my trousers were around my ankles.

Oh well. You live and learn.

Glad to see the meds kicked in and the humorous Fibble is back. This is very funny, very clever. Your expresson makes it look like you are watching a clock. Glad to see matron lets you read the paper instead of making you use them in place of the WC

Is it a slow movement? It could be Beethoven's 5th movement, possibly?
Scatalogical humor in Photo art.
Only the Flib could be so bold.

The only motion that ought to be passed around here should be to ban Daily Telegraph readers from this site.

Oh shock, horror and awfulness - never did I think I'd see the day........

Super legs by the way, have you thought of taking up modelling?

Hmmm. Constipation is a real danger with high dose green pills... Please inform matron of your troubles, and get the docs to change to the yellow with pink spots.

And get that paper back to the doctors' common room! How did you get in there...? I thought it was a high security area....

Have to tell you.... I saw this first thing this AM and it woke me right up. No need for caffeine today. You really gave this assignment your all. You really bared your sole on this one.

Thanks for the great laugh I love it. Very creative.

I'm speechless, Fibbs. I've warned you repeatedly not to take those green pills but did you listen

Noooo! Now you see the consequence. Not only are things moving slowly (I think the better solution to that would be to start eating hay. Obviously, your human diet isn't in sync with the more bland diet of a vicuna.) but as is obvious from the rapidly growing fur on your legs, the second phase of a "barking Llama Incident" is well under way. Trust me on this. I know from hard experience only too well. Suse is right. STOP taking those green pills and immediately maintain a steady regimen of the pink polka-dotted ones.

I see also that they carpet the floor in your cell. At least, Matron allows you some creature comforts.

It's a great photo, as always. Tasteless, but great! Only The Fibs would have the courage to think something like this up and the skill to execute it so well. Bravo!

This will make it to the finals, as always.

Fond regards,

Endre
