I first met Stitch on the banks of the Yangtze River in what was undoubtedly an opium den of some description -- though as whiteys neither Stitch nor myself were actually privy to the back-room goings-on. He called himself Stitch_666 in those days, and these days we laugh about that. In the olden days people sometimes thought it was necessary to append numeric strings to thier names so there wouldn't be any confusion if a messageboard (by some identity-shattering twist of fate) already HAD a "Lord Viper Scorpion" registered. Mind you, some people also added numbers to their names as a sort of tag, usually employed to demonstrate their "edginess factor." The most popular appendices were "69" and "666" with some brave souls venturing into near-esoteric reference with "42".
Um. Where was I?
Oh, right. The Yangtze.
See, the thing is, Stitch_666 was rather tall. I'm not talking like GIRAFFE tall, because (as we all know) giraffes are the tallest animals that there even are. And here's me -- just as tall -- looking across the animal pens at this guy who is JUST AS TALL. In case I'm being too subtle, the Chinese in those days were small people with yellower complexions than we of the Caucasus.
Anyway, he looked up and his eyes goggled in the same way as mine had.
OMFG, he thought to himself. That guy's rather tall. I don't mean like GIRAFFE tall, those are the tallest animals that ever lived... but still, he's rather tall.
He stood silent for a heartbeat before murmuring "Stitch_666" under his breath, for in those days people sometimes liked to reiterated their name after everything they said (even to themselves) as a sort of a "signature"
And that was the first time I met Stitch.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY FRIEND

Happy Birthday Stitch!Inline Image:

People up there grow to be very tall because there's not a lot of good air closer to the ground and stuff so they have to be tall so they can breathe. My mom told me that so I know it's true.
She said it's worse in someplace called Canada where there's hardly any air at all.

Stitch, I know we've beefed in the past, but I think you've come along nicely.
God there's hardly any air up here.

Stitch once saved me from a pride of lions intent on raping me using nothing but a Bick lighter and his savvy knowledge of jungle lore. I'll never forgive him for that. HBD anyway.
Okay, so there might have been a stick of dynamite involved.
