Today I bring you a bittersweet Christmas gift: the final Chatzy Madness.
Perhaps you saw this coming, since it's been so long since the last one. I fell far behind after doing a pretty good job of being up-to-date for years. The thought of combing over a hundred chat logs for funny quotes sounds like a grind and a chore instead of a fun task, and I think that's my cue to stop. I know this will disappoint some people as Chatzy Madness had a few vocal fans, and I also feel disappointed in myself for not mustering the will to keep it going, but last week I started trying to work on it again, got through about six days, saw an hour had passed, and thought "I'm wasting way too much time on this". So it's time to wrap it up.
Really, if you think about it, this blog series lasting as long as it has is kind of nuts. Chatzy Madness is 429 volumes spanning over 14 years. I think that's a pretty damn good run, almost as long as ZFRP itself. If you read all 429 Chatzy Madnesses, I'd give you an Achievement or something if I could. Thanks for sticking with me. I hope you enjoy the last Chatzy Madness.

Gooper Blooper: So, today Goopsmom had to get her car inspected, and since the place that does it is forty minutes away she brought me along and we made a day of it and swung by the Fairbanks Museum
Gooper Blooper: Pardon, was pulled away for a second for a reason related to this story, but back now
Gooper Blooper: On the way there I shared with Goopsmom how the final two of the Brawl shook out. I usually tell her this the day after but this time the finale was such a complicated story with all the assistants and upgrades that it took until now for me to piece together a version of it she'd understand
Gooper Blooper: She wanted to know which users owned which characters and I told her about Hooded Pitohui. I've mentioned his name before and she always reacts with bafflement and then forgets it
Gooper Blooper: but she's definitely going to remember him this time
Gooper Blooper: The museum has tons of bird taxidermy specimens and she spent a significant portion of our visit looking for a hooded pitohui and continuously flubbing the name to the point it became a running joke
Gooper Blooper: I was pulled away because she was trying to google "red-hooded judihoi" and could not find the bird
RubyChao: ahahahahahaaaaaaa
Gooper Blooper: I had mentioned it had some red on it and she interpreted that as "red-hooded" and went down a rabbit hole of looking up the wrong birds
Gooper Blooper: but I think she's finally got it now
Gooper Blooper: As I went back upstairs she was cuddling Wyatt, her pet chihuahua, and telling him he's her little pitohui
Deadly To The Point of Death: Awww
Draco: The Judihoi...
Jumpropeman: time to make the red-hooded judihoi canon in rp and have it show up to the redhead meeting
NO CID ONLY CLAMS: Next up, she's trying to find Breebroo Crawshanks
NO CID ONLY CLAMS: ...did the museum have a hooded pitohui?
Gooper Blooper: We did not find one.
Gooper Blooper: this is where I would triumphantly link a photo of their specimen, IF THEY HAD ONE
Gooper Blooper: but it's possible we simply managed to miss it, or that they have one in storage
Jumpropeman: he escaped the museum so he could join rp
Mobile Pitohui joined the chat
Jumpropeman: it's him!
Jumpropeman: quick! Get the cage!
Mobile Pitohui: I think you're looking for judihoi. Two doors down. Common mistake.
NO CID ONLY CLAMS: No no, that yellow coated Asian girl who loves malls is even more wrong
Gooper Blooper: She kept pointing at random birds and going "Look, it's a red-hooded [garbles the name weirder every time]!"
