Queries and Quislings

Queries and Quislings is an advice dispensary offered as a public service of Coma News Daily and the advice is written by Coma News Daily publisher Davis Montgomery III.

Dear Query Guy,
I am slightly overweight and feel unattractive. What is the best way for me to lose weight and look better to men? I really want a boyfriend. Actually. I really want to be married. What do I need to do to make this happen?
Sincerely,

Dieting Is Extra Tough

 

Dearest DIET,
The weight loss industry is currently peddling the Paleo diet of our cave-dwelling ancestors, whose 28-year average lifespans were apparently the very picture of health. If chasing meerkats across the great plains and eating twigs holds special appeal to you, then such a dietary alignment may prove an optimum fit.

Je ne sais quoi to club with the finest, locate like-minded spirits by frequenting  the local library, exercise emporium or county fair–depending on your priorities.

If such a spousal odyssey sounds as tiresome to you as it does to me, I would alternately offer the favorite advice if my amazing spouse: employ a hammer. Hammering is invigorating exercise. It makes you feel better and sometimes even results in the construction of something useful. So have at that problem with a hammer!

    Davis Montgomery III – what’s the meaning of your ‘Queries and Quislings’ title? Do you know what the word ‘quisling’ means?

  2. Davis Montgomery III says:

    Dearest Mr. Mac, a ‘quisling’ is (for historical purposes) – a lowly and cowardly traitor who collaborates with an occupying enemy because he/she lacks the fortitude to be strong in the face of adversity.
    Hit it with a hammer, my friend!
    Sincerely, Davis Montgomery III
