Mr. Metropolitan's Spring Mailbag Cleaning
Greetings Zwinksters! I hope you're enjoying the first days of spring wherever you may be. Here in Zwinktopia, I was personally so excited about winter being over that I headed down to The Beach to catch some rays.But I soon discovered that it was still pretty chilly down there, and even though there were tiki torches lit for a party... no-one was anywhere to be found. And I'm guessing those hot dogs or hamburgers won't be ready any time before Memorial Day. I guess I'll just restrict my outdoor activity to The Park until things get a bit warmer.
In the meantime, let's get started on some spring cleaning by opening up the mailbag and answering your latest questions.
First up is a sweetheart known as jenniifer-, who writes:
Hey Mr. Metropolitan,I took Ms.Information's Personality Test and it said I would most likely be good friends with you. :P I hear you're sarcastic... I am too. :P They call me the 'sarcastic queen' at school. Isn't that great?
Well, if it said you're anything like me, you obviously have a tremendous future ahead of you. And I'd fully embrace that title of "Sarcastic Queen." Wear it proudly, I say. Sarcasm is, in no way, a dead-end street that will make you a bitter, lonely and miserable adult. Mr. Metropolitan is certainly proof of that.
Our second Znote comes from a rather excitable Zwinkster known as mplilly01:
hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i need ur advice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!whats ur fave color?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seriously? I think it's very clear you need my advice. And the best I can give you is to calm down. Step away from the keyboard and take a deep breath. Maybe take a break from the computer, even. If it's sunny out and reasonably warm, head outside and take a brisk run or walk around the block a few times. Stay away from caffeine, stop renting horror films and try to avoid loud noises and Jonas Brothers concerts, if you can. Feel better now? Hope so. Oh...and the answer to your question is a very dark purplish color that I like to call "blurple."
Next up is a curious Znote from cuteypienotyou, who asks:
How r u a famous person on Zwinky?
Hmmm. Interesting question. You mean, aside from my smoldering good looks, impeccable style, immense intellect and rapacious wit? I really have no idea.
Finally, there's boy band fan ily_jonasbros, who writes in to say:
Mr e, u should give away hair 4 daily keepsake and you should sell better hair at the mall. plzz plzz take that under consideration! =)
Well, first off, I'm clearly not Mister E... so I'm not sure why I'm responding to this question. Second, I'm not sure something like hair could ever be considered a "keepsake" unless you have a tendency toward baldness. The keepsakes are intended to be limited edition items for your wardrobe and dorm room – not features like hair. So while we'll certainly consider your suggestion, I'm not sure that the Zwinky staff (even that shady character Mr. Foxtrot) would ever want to engage in the trafficking of Zwinky body parts. But hey, you never know. And as for better hair at the mall, that's a dream I think we can all share...not just in Zwinktopia, but for all humankind.
On that note, it's time for me to head out and try to enjoy more of the nice spring weather... if I can ever find it, that is. Until next time, take care and be safe out there!
