Next week, on a Very Special Episode of the acclaimed Ubu Panoozi

*cue dramatic music* One dream, of fail. One hope, one ambition, a cornucopia. One person who absolutely can't write dramatic scripts.

This… is Ubu Panoozi. Coming soon to an Internet near you.

This empty blog is trying to tell you something. It's telling you that we have sufficient funds.

While choking back the dust, this blog is breathlessly telling of birthday money, hoarding, equaling a prized amount.

And untold riches…

But mostly that AYAME HAS ENOUGH MONEY TO START PRODDING HER PARENTS ABOUT GETTING A WEBSITE AND OH SHE'S ALSO BEEN WORKING ON A TERRIBLY DONE LAYOUT AND WE MISS YOU RELITH.

That is all.

I bet you totally want to tune in for the season premier! I have some dumb ideas up my sleeves that are sure as toast going to play a part. There will be no initial affiliation scrabble. We will be unpopular and affiliates will be unopened. Popcorn will be provided and dust will be blown.

Stealth plots will almost certainly be made to lure Relith back for unknown, possibly sinister purposes that absolutely do not involve coding. (No, really.)

"We just want her for the lulz," Ayame, an Internet resident, claims. "We had good times, you know. She [Relith] used to draw cats. And she used to spazz. These were attributes we could trust."

"Yep, good times," recalls resident Lea, with a glazed look on her face. She goes on to comment that the times she had with Relith were awesome and "shiny".

"I'm not actually saying this," adds Lea. "It's actually Ayame typing this, but, hey, you know, I would totally be cheering Relith on about now. Really."
Relith was unavailable for comment.

As of press time, opening dates are unknown.

Well, aren't we our own miniature soap opera?

Yes, no kidding, she's gone. Relith, my former partner in crime, has packed her bags, the poor dear, and officially left. (See: last post by Relith)
Not the most graceful way to do it, actually- she acts like we were treating her like a slave, while she was disagreeable and resisted our attempts to compromise.
Anyhow, Ubu Panoozi is not dead or gone in any way. We still are complaining avidly to the annoyance of nonexistent readers, our usual dull shenanigans. I am struggling with CSS, Lea is drawing (for her own amusement), and I am venting my frustration at passerby.
Yes, Relith is gone, and she doesn't seem to be coaxed back with any amount of hot chocolate or promises. Her site- she disembarked with the promise that she WOULD create something, perhaps we could be affiliates?- is absent, but she is of course, you know, "working on it". In her usual, familiar Relith way.
Over the last few days I have done a number of uproarious, controversial things, and I have been called a "disgrace". That's lovely, right?
Unfortunately, this soap opera has frightfully low ratings.
Join us next time on 'Ubu Panoozi' for another installment of petty, boring drama and vague references to my trickery.
To be continued!
