    Summary: HP Omake
    Status: one shot/WIP

    Some of you might remember the other HP Omake by Innortal that I put up on here a while ago, now some of you might realize what this is just by the name and some of you might just read this because you liked the other one, but either way I hope you enjoy.

    5/5 for me.

    Edit: Also from what Innortal said he might be turning this into a story.

    ...God I love Venture Bros. I need to start torrenting all the episodes, or go buy DVDs or something...

    4/5 - Not incredible, but I actually lol'd. I really, really hope this is continued.

    You expect us to register? Did he post it on FF.NET or something?

    He can write entertaining shorts. His biggest fault is that he completes almost nothing.

    4/5 for me on this, I can just see how the Monarch would be a sibling to Vernon and Marge.

    I am pleasantly surprised by this since Innortal's stuff is, typically, not well done.

    It's also posted in Rorschach Blot's yahoo group.

    Oh, as a one-shot, it's 4-star quality, but if he's making a story out of it, I'm holding off until more is published.

    3.5/5 Entertaining in a vague sort of way. There were spots where I cracked a smile and a relationship between the three actually makes a twisted sort of sense.

    Adding in my 2 cents, it's a lot less painful on my email to join that forum than to join that group. I was a member for all of an hour and I had 5 e-mails in my inbox. Too much spam ftl.

    The only state that doesn't suck.
    You can choose if you receive emails for every post, or simply for important notices and shit. I'd go with the latter.

    Lol, definitely the latter.

    The first time I joined a group, I mistakenly chose the former.
    Forgot to check for a while, and came back to like 500 emails.

    When you click on "Join this Group" on Yahoo, you have to fill out a form. Here's a big fat fucking hint for those of you who've never even looked at the form. Try reading Step 2. I even made a screenshot for you:

    [​IMG]

    Now I always sign up for the "Web Only" which means I get one e-mail telling me I joined a group, and then never any other emails at all.

    If I ever want to look at anything on one of the groups I'm in, I just click on it from "My Groups" page: http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups For groups with a lot of posts like rorblot's, you can sort messages by topic and just read the first posts with actual fic chunks easily.

    All of my groups have and always will be set to no mail. That way I can pop up every few months and look through everything instead of having to deal with an assload of comments that say the same thing. Or dealing with a moderator who thinks I'm there for anything besides a maximum of maybe three stories.
