My hat's off to you: your post is wonderfully inspired nonsense!
As I recall, you're in southwestern Florida. I hope that Floyd is kind to you.
: Nor does mine! The shopkeeper validated the seals emblazoned on both difthrii, and manipulated the imharpakla to such a degree of zenz* that I was reminded of nothing less than Losk's Fourteen-Step Dithyramb Acceptualizer in full ptoon**, but with fewer saltations. So why doesn't it work? It seems we've been fleeced. Old Shiftyshanks fled her stall in such haste that she can't have borne with her all the choice goods. So let's fly to the market! We'll confiscate whatever valuables remain, and then watch for the swindler's return to this place via Cannonball Cloud .89!"
: *zenz: untranslatable due to its non-existence.
: **ptoon: roughly the same as above, but independant of the existence or non-existence of zenz.
