Fable if you please

Now we had an ask Buck anything thread. I wanted to ask Fable a question on similar lines.

How do you know all the **** that you know? I mean seriously you seem to know more about anything and everything there is on the planet. What are you CIA? NSA? Illuminati? Access Hollywood?

Nah you can tell the way he writes that he doesnt read up on a topic before he posts about it. Rather he just glosses over it for us simpletons to understand. If some researchs a topic and presents his views according to those sources they usually tend to be mainstream and popular. Fable is anything but mainstream. I personally think he just has a huge head which has this small little hobbit as a librarian

Know a lot? I know very little. I stand in awe of a number of people in SYM who show so much discipline and knowledge. By contrast, I'm just a slacker with a strong curiosity streak.

But if you want to pay me, I'll don a velvet robe, hang around in incense-filled chambers, and make interesting observations all day long. Time-and-a-half for nights.

I can answer that one. He's old, as in ancient. *gets ready to duck*

I'm not ancient. I'm...venerable. There's a difference.

Remind me to remind you of this conversation in several thousand years, when you reach my august point in life.

He's a wise wise man, with a long, long beard, and a knobbly knobbly.......erm.... staff

No lack or credit to him, he knows about paractically anything, but the person who astounds me on day to day basis is C Elegans. Like, mondo geniusly.... knowing everything about everything! Scary

Ancient! I mean, venerable! I do question a lot. My teachers tried to punish it out of me, my mother tried to beat it out of me, but nothing ever worked. They obviously forgot the old folk remedies, like staking a person in the woods on a winter night while the wolves were howling.

Fables cool and he is pretty wise but i dont think he likes me.

Er, why? I can't say there's anybody in SYM whom I dislike.

You probably always wondered why Hollywood agents were slugs. Now, you know.
