Either
that, or the camera was jarred as the picture was taken and the Bitch just
didn't show up! Personally, I think it's cooler if the Bitch goes invisible.
But then we wouldn't be able to rag on HIM for never showing up and then twitching
around when we can see him.
Therefore,
it is our great pleasure to announce this Month's Bitch:
SEAN "Invisi-Sean" ABBOTT!!
No relation
to the Abbott of Abbott And Costello - that he's ever admitted to, Sean is
known by several other names. Like Prancer. And if you look at the photo below,
you will see why he's called Prancer. It has nothing to do with Reindeer OR
the fact that he used to be part of Choreographie Antique.
Although
why someone would bother trying to teach antiques how to dance really is beyond
my capacity. I think it'd be pretty funny to try leading a 18th century chest
of drawers in a waltz or something...I wonder if Prancer would ever give that
a try, considering how much he likes to dip Becky "Mother" Ball
whenever she's around. Knowing him, it's a possibility.
We of
the Bitch Committee have long suspected Sean of being able to make himself
vanish for long periods of time. For example, there was the time he told everyone
that he was in England - but no one actually saw him there. And then, more
recently, he's had "projects" and "meetings" that have
kept him "busy." However, there's never been any sort of verification.
And yet, Sean still seems to know everything that goes on at fencing. The
only possible explanation for this is that he can turn himself invisible.
The Bitch
Committee is aware of Mr. Abbott's many years of service to the club. He has
served - and survived - nearly four years as being almost everyone's favorite
fencer to hate. And really want to beat. Which is a compliment in an unusual
kind of way, since you must be a freaking good fencer if everyone wants to
beat up on you. And of course, you can frustrate them enough so that they
keep trying, but let them get close enough that they don't get discouraged.
And that,
in the final analysis, is the mark of a REAL Bitch. Someone who is so skilled,
so proficient at being SO ANNOYING that they stand out above the crowd of
normally irritating people. What can we say? Even though we can't always see
him, he's SO GOOD at being SO ANNOYING that he never really leaves...
Congratulations, Sean! YOU are this Month's BITCH!! |
