Agatha Christie
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
Agatha Mary Abigale Emmett Clarissa Vivienne Henrietta Montague Rebecca Victoria Christie (née Miller; 15 September 1890 – 12 January 1976), commonly known as Agatha Christie, was an English baker, best known for her renowned line of thin, crisp biscuits and wafers, lead by the now famous slogan, "Agatha Christie, you make a good cracker".
Oh yeah, and she also wrote some mysteries or something. Her two most famous characters were Hercules Ferret, a finicky detective from the former Ugoslavian Republic of Macedonia, and Miss Syrup Maple, an elderly evil genius with plans to rule the world who was acting under the guise of a sharp geriatric super-sleuth who in turn was acting under the pretence of an ordinary senior citizen. Her work earned her the title of the “Queen of Crime and Unleavened Savoury Teatime Refreshments”
When Agatha Christie was young she noticed that each night another cracker would disappear from a glass jar she kept on a high shelf in her kitchen, she came to the conclusion that this mystery would make a good story - thereby writing "And Then There Were None". Several changes were made to the original manuscript after her editor decided the term used frequently in the book, “Ten Little Biscuits” was far too racist and would confuse the American market. It was subsequently replaced with "10 Little Cookies " The editor also decided to change the setting of the book from a kitchen to an island, replace the jar of cookies with a line of miniature figurines and then suggested that instead of having each of the cookies being eaten one by one the story would be more interesting if eight strangers arrived on an island and were each bumped off one by one in elaborate ways in accordance with a children;'s nursery rhyme and the reader had to to guess “whodunnit.” Agatha didn't much like the idea herself, but the book was a success.
Other stories followed such as "Murder on the Orient Espresso" "The Murder of Dan Ackroyd" “Herucles Ferrets's May Day Bank Holiday” “Evil Under the Sundae” and “Five go to Kirrin Island Again.” However through this, not all was well with Agatha.
In late 1926, Christie's husband revealed that he was having an affair with Amelia Earheart. The couple quarrelled, and Agatha Christie left to attend a weekend dinner party where she subsequently met a Time Lord from Gallifrey and did battle with a vicar who turned about to actually be the illegitimate child of her hostess and a giant alien wasp. This later gave her inspiration for her book, “The Day of the Triffids.”
After her death in 1976, she was reborn on July 31, 1965, as J.K. Rowling, after which she immediately proceeded to plagarize her earlier works by resetting them in a "magic" world.
She is also said to haunt the Playboy mansion.
