So why “northierthanthou?” The simple truth is that “The Village Atheist” is taken. I had lots of ideas for that theme, but some bastard beat me to it. Short of sending the goons, I have to come up with something different. I suppose “Dan’s Authentic Tacoria and Massage Emporium” is probably available, but I’m not feeling particularly zany today. …might opt for this to that later.
And I really do want to start a business with that name. …Might make it a tropical fish shop.
Anyway, it’s “northierthathou” for the indefinite future, and I will say that this title does have the virtue of being true. As a resident of Barrow, Alaska, I think I can honestly say that I am a lot Northier than the majority of my readers will be, and I takes my comparative virtues where I finds them. So, yes dear reader, with few exceptions I think it is safe to say that I am Northier than you. You may think yourself smarter than me, and perhaps you will be right. You may consider yourself better informed, smarter, or even kinder than I am. And in all those areas, I’ll grant you the case is often easily made. But when it comes to Northity, dammit, I have that all over the lot of you. I really don’t mean to lord it over the Northy-deficient, but well, …actually, yes I do. Try not to let it get you down folks. Let’s all just acknowledge my superior Northitude and get on with it.
Not sure how you found my blog Daniel, yet I am glad that you did. Great writing and I know that you are smarter and definitely more northier. 😉
Well anyone smart enough to recommend eating flowers is alright by me. (It was a food search that brought me to you. …I must often live vicariously through others in that regard.) Thank you for your kind words.
😉 This is one reason why I love blogging…interesting folks sharing lives. Many of us live vicariously! Just think how green this is? Shrinking the carbon footprint!
Interesting read
🙂
Now I am going away to do my breakfast, later than having my breakfast coming yet again to read additional news.
Yeah, but I’m southier.
Are you seriously located above the Arctic Circle? Come to think of it,you could “-ier” in all directions. Then again I imagine it’s warmer down here. 🥶
Yes, I’m in Barrow. We are about 300 miles inside the arctic circle.
