Leeches eventually get their fill and fall off. It’s the price of being clever and witty and accepted; it makes the trolls jealous. But they can’t keep up with true creativity and intelligence.
I googled it: Luch – a mouse (that’s the whole definition). So it’s not a typo. You will be showered with mice [smiley face]. Hope you enjoyed your meal, because now you have the plague.

there, i saved you the trouble of pointing out something obvious
But you did invoke the Reverse Ordinal Post Rule, where a random Wikipedia item receives a response of a random number.
It is called the Inverse Ordinal Post Rule, as discovered by none other than this very Meowth!
which meowth?
There’s only one, and he doesn’t speak out of both sides of his meowth.
Don’t pay attention to the troll who stole my skin.
You can put a cat suit on a grub, but that won’t make him purr.
Correct.
sorry, i didn’t know it was that long! :O
I prefer to be showered with clean water instead. no matter how good the lunch is, I don’t want it smeared all over my body.
Maybe it’s just a warning that there’s a food fight in your future.
*yells* FOOD FIGHT!!! *throws tomato at Meowth*
Better than being showered with bad luch…
or being attacked by a Lich
Or being lyched by a mob.
Or being mobbed by a lichen.
I’m not lichen this at all. Laconejita, how did you get rid of your troll? I seem to have picked up a stalker.
Leeches eventually get their fill and fall off. It’s the price of being clever and witty and accepted; it makes the trolls jealous. But they can’t keep up with true creativity and intelligence.
This one smells different, though…
Yes, this one seems to be penicillin resistant bacteria.
Oh, no!!! We’re dealing with MRSA? We’d better get on our gloves and gowns and masks.
Call in the Mods! Call in the Mods!
Get a copy of “Don’t Shoot the Dog.” Excellent tips on operant conditioning.
It seems to me the combination of occasional but very biting and clever insults combined with general ignoring eventually does the trick.
Yay! I’m free! I’m happy now.
according to the reliable folks at wiktionary luch means mouse
<..>….yeah
uh…ok…so we are being rained on by mice? how…..unsanitary
I know I’m opening up a can of worms here, but if it were raining men, would that be more or less sanitary?
Depends on how high up they are raining from – when they fall, do they bounce, or go splat?
Ask the Weather Girls!
Don’t you mean the Whether Girls?
No, I meant the Wither Girls.
All weather grills.
Which brings us back to…”BBQ will find a way”.
Where there’s a burger, there’s a cat.
Have bun, will travel.
Meowth should be pleased to learn that, since it’s one of his preferred cheeseburger toppings.
It isn’t a cheeseburger without a bit of fresh mouse!
On the whole, I’d rather have curry egg horse shoe crap with pineapple.
Do you want weird sauce or whore dust with that?
Just a glass of Mike.
would you like to substitute that pineapple for some PAINAPPPLE?
You put too much P in that…
Obviously they meant Lurch, from the Addams Family. However I think I’ll pass.
*Absurdly deep voice* You rang?
Yes, Lurch, you will take a shower with me and it will be good. And drop the “r,” will you?
*absurdly deep voice* Whee do you want me to dop it?
Just leave on the mat by the shower, you can have it back when you’re done.
*Absurdly deep voice* As you wish. But after the shower I may not care about the “r” at all.
I eally think that’s a simple gammatical error. I’m sue this wasn’t on pupose.
Please, don’t sue!! We’ll give you a baker’s dozen Rs. No, make that 14…
I have no idea what luch is, but I’m not going out today without my tinfoil hat on, just as a precaution.
I imagine you will also harry a handful of condoms.
Maybe Harry would prefer a few conundrums?
I wouldn’t use a condom that’s been harried.
Would you carry a conundrum?
I haven’t had much luck with dropping them. They seem to follow me anyway.
Give them to a good home.
I think its raining tossed salad and scrambled eggs.
Is this a Roman Shower-type thing?
*You are about to be crushd by a giant corn*
oh no GIANT CORN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*CRUSHED BY CORN*
ow……
You will be showered with good Luragrhrkkrlrlrlrch Oh, I am so sorry *wipe*
I googled it: Luch – a mouse (that’s the whole definition). So it’s not a typo. You will be showered with mice [smiley face]. Hope you enjoyed your meal, because now you have the plague.
Ah, well. At least they are good luch.
It could be worst, they could be bad luch.
Thanks for this wonderful addition. Really enjoyed your blog. Appreciate people taking the time to write quality work..
I myself have also found this fortune.
May I have the hot tea in a cup, though?
…OMG. I got this 2 years ago. I still have it too; its the exact same fortune… weird…
