surlywench, one of the Doomiest MayFaire Moon Minions of Doom EVAR, posted her list of pet peeves concerning faire. I particularly loved this one, of course:
5. don't tell me the corsets I sell are any of the following:
a) overpriced
b) easily made at home for much less
c) not period
i will melt your face off, k thnks.
When confronted with this utter crap IN MY OWN BOOTH, I'm very polite.
"Oh, I could make this for about $40!"
"Yes, but how much do you charge for your time and expertise?"
"Oh...uh...well, I don't do this as a business."
"I do. Thank you. Enjoy the faire."
So. What would YOU say? Especially what would you say if you knew you'd never get in trouble for it. I mean, what have you aaaaaaalways wanted to really say to these people?

I recommend a lot of lessons and far less alcohol, but neither will make up for the appalling lack of rhythm and musicality you display. Ah, I see you have shut up now that I have balanced my large pointy sword on my head and am dancing dangerously close to you. A wise decision on your part."
