Right now, as of this very moment, I really fucking dig you all.
My co-workers are almost tolerable today.
Spending 7 hours at County Hospital is not a fun way to spend a night, but for my friends, I'd do almost anything.
Spring is most defifuckingnitely here. I'm seven different kinds of smitten.
These sure as hell are interesting times, boys and girls.

Luna, you are swell.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 11 March 2004 17:58 (twenty-two years ago)

I almost started an 'oh my life suxxx' thread today, but then I realized that there are nice people out there. Yeah, and probably in my life too.

That's as twee as it gets, y'all. Rock on.

so far three people have gotten 90s although Jeremy had a bit of help by people saying answers here.

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:01 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't have flash at work so I can't do any of the quizzizzes y'all. I'm not just being a snob.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:03 (twenty-two years ago)

i think mine is too hard. but my favorite movie is really the dirty dozen.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:04 (twenty-two years ago)

I didn't even read the answers! I got your favorite band wrong Chris, and one other one, 'cept I forget which.

Julia yours was too hard!

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I was trying not to make it too easy and maybe I succeeded too much...

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:30 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah your's was hard. i got a 40

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:31 (twenty-two years ago)

i scored what i typically scored in high school!

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Btw Chris, I had a dream that I was trying to arrange an appointment with a Dr. Venutti (how annoying that I dream about making dr. appointments), but I never got to meet you because I got kidnapped by friends for a makeover.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:32 (twenty-two years ago)

was ILX just down for a minute or was it just me?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Haha! Um, what kind of doctor was I? Hehe.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:34 (twenty-two years ago)

No I knew your job, Chris

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:35 (twenty-two years ago)

right now Im listening to Van Halen "Mean Street" and thinking about grooming my chest hair.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Damn, I got a 40, too.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:37 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah, huck it was down for a minute.

― kephm, Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:37 (twenty-two years ago)

On Jules' quiz. I don't actually have a 40. Work would be way better if I did.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:37 (twenty-two years ago)

mmm 40's of schaeffer.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Chris, I think you were just an endocrinologist (hormone doc), sorry.

I got your job wrong on your quiz. Knew you were an analyst of some kind but I space out on details.

Sorry mine's so hard! I was afraid I would be way too obvious with everything so I tried too hard in the opposite direction...

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:40 (twenty-two years ago)

I wanted to be an eye doctor!

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:42 (twenty-two years ago)

when I do my quiz tonight, it's gonna rock so hard, but you all will be bored of these quizzizzes by then and I'll feel like an ass!

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:53 (twenty-two years ago)

I do need to see an eye doctor one of these days, so you could have been that. But it was a Very Important Appointment, which is why you were probably an endo.

I looked over my test and I'm kind of evil. With the job question and the guitar question (and the food question) all the answers were feasible and somewhat accurate but only one was technically correct.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Luna's was pretty hard too. Damn I forgot to add my tattoo question! Well how many do I have?

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:57 (twenty-two years ago)

three.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:57 (twenty-two years ago)

huck thinks im crazy because I like Michael Buble.

4 is the correct answer.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:58 (twenty-two years ago)

damn, I nearly said four, too.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 18:59 (twenty-two years ago)

oh I know - I got the guitar one wrong on yours, too, Chris - I picked it, and as soon as I did, went 'fuck, no!'

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:00 (twenty-two years ago)

My uncle knows Michael Buble. My uncle works (sometimes) in musical theatre. He's a nice guy though (my uncle) and I don't hold it against him. Also, Michael Buble was discovered while singing at the wedding of the daughter of one of Canada's most despised leaders. So there's that working for/against him.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:00 (twenty-two years ago)

80 on luna's quiz, cuz i forgot one of the answers.

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Somebody got a 90 on Luna's quiz.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:03 (twenty-two years ago)

You did!

It's the middle name one that no one knows, isn't it?

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, I got that one wrong. (I got a 70)

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:05 (twenty-two years ago)

I knew the middle name! I missed the bungee jumping one.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:05 (twenty-two years ago)

i did awful at luna's. wtf i suck.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:06 (twenty-two years ago)

I scored mine wrong. So the food question is wrong anyway. But the choices are all favorites, so whatever.

(I missed the bungee jumping one too...)

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:58 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm not there either. I fucking should be though. Of all years, this shoulda been my year. But I screwed up. Lost my temper.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 11 March 2004 19:59 (twenty-two years ago)

a measely 40.

fuck SXSW. I was going down to austin next week to visit my homies since it's spring break but lack of money and my about to blow up car prevented it. *grumble*

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:01 (twenty-two years ago)

I am totally sucking on these so far. Are there some on the old thread? I've been home like twenty minutes.

I'm still sucking at these. Here's mine.

It's not because I don't pay attention, guys, it's just that I'm staring at your tits.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:26 (twenty-two years ago)

I sucked at Sarah's!

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:30 (twenty-two years ago)

that sounds like something that would be printed on a t-shirt for some shitty overly-friendly-server type restaurant

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Dammit. I sucked at Tep's too.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:31 (twenty-two years ago)

that just sounds so wrong.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:32 (twenty-two years ago)

30 on both jeremys and teps. im awesome.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:33 (twenty-two years ago)

30 on tep's for me.

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:34 (twenty-two years ago)

I got a 60 on Sarah's and Tep's both.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 20:38 (twenty-two years ago)

She emailed it to me.

Well, how am I supposed to get an impressively high score then?

Christ. A new column I'm writing premiered today, and there's already immense response to it. Since it's nominally about religion (in roleplaying games), I'm a little hesitant to click and read, but I suppose that's what I signed up for.

(I just keep expecting the Jack Chiclets to show up and consign me to hell at some point.)

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 21:32 (twenty-two years ago)

okay, did really crappily on rosemary's quiz and i feel like a big ass for it.

― mandee, Thursday, 11 March 2004 21:32 (twenty-two years ago)

I did badly on most of the quizes. I need to be a better listener.

Tell me something. I'm listening.

(*waiting*)

No, really. I do care.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Thursday, 11 March 2004 21:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I would've got 100 on Luna's but she doesn't even know how many tattoos she has! An unfinished tattoo is still a tattoo.

wha?? no snow here. actually pretty sunny

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:25 (twenty-two years ago)

hmm. most folks are getting the guitar question on my quiz correct. that's reassuring.

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:28 (twenty-two years ago)

We got snow a couple days ago. Today's lots of wind and that high-up sky I'd kind of forgotten about after living in Nola. It's dropped about twenty degrees from the warm front we'd had that I'd hoped was, you know, spring being sprungy.

I got no one's guitar questions right. I hardly got any questions right! I was kind of surprised by which ones I knew, especially the ones that weren't guesses. (Most of my wrong answers were guesses, and most of my guesses were wrong answers.)

(I think everyone has gotten my glasses question wrong; most people get the cat, tattoo, and surname questions wrong, too.)

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:32 (twenty-two years ago)

I knew the surname!

The others though, yeah, I knew a couple once I saw the answers and said, 'oh fuck'.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:35 (twenty-two years ago)

You must be bored by now, but try mine, please?

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:35 (twenty-two years ago)

You knew the surname because you probably remembered that I always lie about the surname :)

Doing yours now, Mark.

Whoops, no I'm not.

Only a 50% on Mark's. I choked.

Okay, I don't think that sounds like you think it sounds.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Some days you just may as well add "right up the butt" to the end of everything you say.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:47 (twenty-two years ago)

You got that right. Right up the butt.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 11 March 2004 22:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Sometimes overstriking makes more sense than insertion:

It should email you with a link for both that and, whenever someone takes the test, a link for a breakdown of what they got right and wrong.

Even if you picked randomly, it would be hard to get a 0. (It would be, what, a 5.6% chance of getting them all wrong?)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 03:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Heya sweeties, I'm mostly posting blind to this thread because I wanted to post something and if I actually read through all the responses herein, I would never actually get to posting anything, so let me link you to my OWN quiz and hope that you guys will take it. I hope I didn't make it too difficult, though I will admit to not exactly being the world's most challenging quizmaster.

*hugs to all*

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Friday, 12 March 2004 03:49 (twenty-two years ago)

That's the challenge of the 0! People would have to think they were right, and then be wrong.

It probably isn't going to happen at all.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 12 March 2004 04:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Dee, one of your questions kinda makes the following question much easier. But even with that, I only got a 40. : (

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 04:10 (twenty-two years ago)

me too! RATS!!!

― Bryan B Sure (Bryan), Friday, 12 March 2004 04:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Weird, me too.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 12 March 2004 04:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I wasn't angling to make it the hardest quiz evah, though. :)

But I am astounded at how low your scores have been. Though you ARE talking to Ms. "Perpetually Scoring 30 On These Quizzes" here. Heh.

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Friday, 12 March 2004 04:19 (twenty-two years ago)

My quiz...

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 09:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh man. I did really badly in your quiz Tep but in my defence I wasn't paying full attention. (For my whole life.)

I will take some more now and maybe make my own if I have time. But it's the last day of term and there is much to do.

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 12 March 2004 11:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Archel, it is your duty to ILX to each & every quiz!! (esp mine!)

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 11:51 (twenty-two years ago)

I did yours just now! 70% :)

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 12 March 2004 11:56 (twenty-two years ago)

I also got 70 on Mark's, which considering I've known him for about 6 years and I've never met you, is... odd. Mind you some of his qs were v hard!

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 12 March 2004 11:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Woo, Archel is my new best friend!! ;-)

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 12:23 (twenty-two years ago)

My questions are too easy!! I might do another one!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 12:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Julia = 10
Luna = 40
Kingfish = 30
Tep = 10
Mandee = 50
Sarah McL = 60
Rosemary = 70
Mark C = 50
Martin = 40
Chris = 50
Bryan = 40
Dee = 30
Pink = 30

― jel -- (jel), Friday, 12 March 2004 12:59 (twenty-two years ago)

I hold no one's score against them :) (Likewise no one should hold mine against me!) And NA didn't get 5, incidentally, he got 50. I have no idea why it shows up as 5.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Damn, I was thinking 'ha ha NA only got HALF a q right'. I am indeed rubbish.

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Take my Quiz on QuizYourFriends.com!

I was running out of question ideas after the 4th one.

― jel -- (jel), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Every time I get a question wrong, I'm like, "Fuck, I hope I didn't totally insult so-and-so." Like I got Martin's football team wrong and just thought, oh, fuck, I hope that wasn't an accidental character assassination. This is why I didn't put baseball or other religious matters on my quiz.

(In other words, I just got a question wrong on yours, jel.)

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I love how there are certain quizzes that I've actually managed to do well in, and then there are some that I just knew I was going to do well in and -- well, 30 city, baybee!

Pinkpanther, hon, you rock! You are the only person who's taken my quiz as of now to get the snack food question right! Congratulations!

(FYI, there was one individual who got #s 4 - 10 right. All of them. This person is supposed to be # 1 in the rankings but I think a system glitch is preventing them from showing up like that.)

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Shit, Archie, we've grown apart. I only got 60 :(

(I thought you had your ears pierced, and red shoes is hardly a bad guess)

― Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Haha the red shoes option was likely to throw you off it's true. I had one ear pierced once; I thought it was cool and rebellious. However that was 10 years ago.

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Why thanks Dee!! :-)

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 13:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Everyone is getting my trick question wrong! mwah ha ha!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 14:03 (twenty-two years ago)

fuck all y'all. I'm not getting caught up in this web of quizzizzes (mostly cuz my stupid computer at work won't load them and cuz I fell asleep last night before I could do ANYTHING, incl. some imp. work I was supposed to have done for today). Somebody email me when this thing plays its course and I'll be back with lotsa fun and interesting things to say.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 14:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Aww come on Huck, we're only playing!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 14:42 (twenty-two years ago)

I missed a question on Sarah's! Oh no! But 90 ain't bad. I also got a semi-stalkerish 70 on Chris P.'s, from some lucky guesses. I'm now in second place on his.

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 12 March 2004 14:44 (twenty-two years ago)

well, but since I can't take or make a quiz, and that's all anybody's talking about, I might as well just whatever until y'all are whatever with the whatnot. Y'know, sour grapes, etc.
(I was just kidding about the "fuck you" I hold no grudges)

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 14:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I think the quizzes are great. For mine it has allowed the people who know me really well to feel good about themselves for a bit and the people who don't know me as well now know a bunch of dumb facts about me. Win win!

Unrelated to this, I SLEPT MORE WHEN I HAD A JOB!!! OMGWTF?!?!?!

― Bryan B Sure (Bryan), Friday, 12 March 2004 14:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Aww Huck! :-(

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Alright, it's the one that no one at all has been waiting for:

Take my Quiz on QuizYourFriends.com!

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Damnit I got 10. I think the meaness must have upset me too much to answer correctly!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm a big suck.

Bryan, it makes perfect sense. I mean, without a job, there's nothing to demark day/night, nothing to even nominally tire you out. Last time I didn't work for an extended period of time (another lifetime ago it feels like), I was all wonked out. Slept between noon and 5 p.m. Cuz there was nothing good on TV then.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Yay, someone got a 0 on my wicked harder test, finally.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:10 (twenty-two years ago)

this is the thread where we quiz each other

― kephm, Friday, 12 March 2004 15:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Huck, we could paste the quizzes here so you can at least see the magical elephant we keep talking about.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Mine is the meanest quiz, if not the hardest and the least fair.

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:14 (twenty-two years ago)

I've done these quiz yr friends things before, back when I had real friends and not just imaginary internet friendsors.

Actual response to a person I sent my quiz to:
"Did you do this to get back at me?"

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Ha ha, the detailed results are great. Suspiciously, so far almost everyone has gotten the one about how I'm going to die right.

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, anybody wanna come to a concert with me tonight? It'll be really, really bad. So bad it'll be fun!

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:30 (twenty-two years ago)

okay, so bad that I'll have to get really, really drunk to make it fun.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:32 (twenty-two years ago)

a BLIZZARD! A FUCKIN' BLIZZARD AGAIN!

FUCK this stupid state and fuck winter and fuck the midwest and fuck the cold

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:38 (twenty-two years ago)

I am just focusing on the prospect of Matt's vegetable biriani (not a euphemism) to get me through the next 1.5 hours.

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Come to Regina Kingfish. Tonight we rock with Unc1e Kracke®!

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Fuck (even) the Pilsner, Huck. Go straight for the windshield washer fluid - THE BLUE LIGHTNING!

― Bryan B Sure (Bryan), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:42 (twenty-two years ago)

the best thing is that the concert has been barely promoted, so it'll be like a private audience! So UK will be able to clearly feel the derision and scorn I glare at him with!

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:44 (twenty-two years ago)

The question about how you're going to die is one of the few I've gotten right!

Who is UK?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, whoops, there it is.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:47 (twenty-two years ago)

So does that mean you're coming?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Ok, so my mom got a 50 on my quiz. Maybe it's too hard.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:57 (twenty-two years ago)

maybe she's not really your mom?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:58 (twenty-two years ago)

If I was in the neighborhood, I'd consider it. But alas...

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 15:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Everyone except Dee has got the trick question wrong!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, that was pretty mean, there. I had built up a level of trust with your quiz that was soon shattered.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Heh heh! It's not a trick question as such, it's troooo!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Which was the trick question? I've forgotten them.

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:12 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't say it cos it'll give it away! Everyone went for the obvisou answer & it actually isn't!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:17 (twenty-two years ago)

I think my quiz was too easy.

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:23 (twenty-two years ago)

No I thought it was good!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:24 (twenty-two years ago)

It's not how hard they are that's important, it's how interesting they are. What sorts of things you learn about people (or realize you already knew), etc. So don't sweat it!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Damnit, mine was dull as shit!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I should've had a sex question.

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Make an all-sex quiz!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:40 (twenty-two years ago)

hmm, lemme think on this. Don't know if I could do 10 whole questions though.

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Right everyone, I am off into the wilds of Sussex for a week and may not have electricity, let alone interweb. I've had a lovely day of quizzing and fun thanks to you all, despite my boss giving me tasks I should have had a week to do, ONE HOUR before home time today.

Take care poppets xxx

Hello Sarah, I'm Martin. Pleased to meet you. (Sarah McL got only 1/10 on my quiz! Oddly one that most have got wrong, too.)

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Make an all-sex quiz!

Only if you go first. (I nearly typed 'fist')

Yeah, sorry, Martin. Sorry everyone! Um, errr... I test badly?!!

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 12 March 2004 16:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Ned, where is your quiz?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 12 March 2004 17:04 (twenty-two years ago)

On my wicked hard quiz, Sam got the ones right that everyone's gotten wrong, I think. No idea if that means anything or if everyone is simply guessing.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 12 March 2004 17:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Ned, where is your quiz?

Been too busy. Also, there was a quiz thread like this one a couple of years back and if I could dig up my old quiz I would...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 12 March 2004 17:26 (twenty-two years ago)

just in case anybody cares, Mike Bullard got sacked today!

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 17:26 (twenty-two years ago)

No apology necessary, Sarah - it wouldn't at all surprise me if someone got them all wrong. I went for very plausible alternatives (like my other favourite singers, three other past jobs) so it's easy to get them wrong.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 12 March 2004 17:41 (twenty-two years ago)

I've actually been letting my kids take all the quizzes for me.

I think I have the highest score on Dee's thus far.

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 17:43 (twenty-two years ago)

So, a co-worker (whom I see and talk to everyday, I should note) just said "You're growing a beard! You look much better."

Does that mean my face is so hideous that only by obfuscating with whiskers can I hope to make it presentable to polite society? Am I monster?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 19:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Have you posted to the "what do you look like?" threads? Because I don't remember.

He probably means that you look all sophisticated or something. Now you'll be able to stroke your beard thoughtfully.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 12 March 2004 19:36 (twenty-two years ago)

this is a somewhat older picture of me. Like, nearly 7 years old!

http://www.exclaim.ca/images/up-emmet_matheson.jpg

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 19:40 (twenty-two years ago)

You certainly look presentable to polite society unshaven. No worries on that. I imagine that a beard will look good too.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:01 (twenty-two years ago)

So I should go punch that guy in the nads, huh?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:02 (twenty-two years ago)

It might make the day more interesting...

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Who looks "better" now, asshole?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:05 (twenty-two years ago)

(that's what I'd say if I actually did punch him in the nads, which I won't, because I'm a chicken shit, and I don't think was actually insulting me)

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:47 (twenty-two years ago)

It wasn't working before, but now it works for me. I got a 70 because I wasn't sure if I'd sexed Sam up.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:49 (twenty-two years ago)

heh. yes i am that bored but only sarcastically vain.

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:50 (twenty-two years ago)

You should have had an "I wish" option.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:53 (twenty-two years ago)

haha, trying not to be too vain. although if I was really concerned about that I wouldn't have made the thing in the first place.

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 20:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Damn, I only got 40. Tragically poor.

i still can't get it to load. keeps timing out.

i'll try when i get home.

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Friday, 12 March 2004 21:41 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't quite work out why this quiz seems to have increased my respect for Sam significantly. Odd. Obviously it makes her even sexier, but I'm not sure what the respect is about - probably honesty and openness, I guess.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 12 March 2004 21:52 (twenty-two years ago)

stupidness

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Friday, 12 March 2004 21:53 (twenty-two years ago)

That makes sense to me, really (not stupidness).

i'm happy that "hitting it from the back" was mentioned.

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 12 March 2004 22:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Not sure, I don't have the link to the scoreboard on the first one handy, but if not, then very close. See, too much of it was from my New England days.

Damn I only got a 70. I'm disappointed in myself.

― luna (luna.c), Friday, 12 March 2004 23:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't think I got better than a 70 on anyone's quizzes. I have a tendency to hover over the right answer and then pick something completely wrong.

I went out for drinks after work and omg am I ever druibj right now - holy shit

― luna (luna.c), Saturday, 13 March 2004 08:16 (twenty-two years ago)

druibj? that's a new one to me. what is it like?

― Ask For Janice (thatgirl), Saturday, 13 March 2004 11:06 (twenty-two years ago)

So I had a riot last night.
I'll tell you all about it sometime, but not now. But you should ask me, next time I'm around.

― Huck, Saturday, 13 March 2004 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

You had a riot or the riot had you?

Mmm, beads.

I don't have time to get into it now, but let me say that I went 6 for 7 with the deadly sins. I think.
It involved a)Unc1e Kr@cker b) gambling c) N!ck1ebaque d) Death metal e) strippers f)booze-a-plenty g)way too many cab rides

no more sake bombs.

But if you were happy, was that all that mattered?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 13 March 2004 21:23 (twenty-two years ago)

I think I was. I wasn't as happy when I woke up this morning, I can tell you.

― luna (luna.c), Saturday, 13 March 2004 21:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Noted.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 13 March 2004 21:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I lost count at 13 sake bombs. It's all a little hazy after that.

Tep, your Gameboy is either (a.) possessed or (b.) um, wait.

luna, sounds like you had loads of fun!

Sam, I don't know how on Earth I managed to get as high a score as the one I got on that second quiz. I suppose a lot of answers might've made sense taking into account your nature and trying to translate it into the bedroom, but there was at least one question whose answer I was incredibly surprised by.

I seem to waver with these quizzes. I either do excellently or I do very poorly. Although I haven't gotten anything below like a 30 or so. And, um, Sarah, hi. I don't believe we've met.... ;) (Sorry hon, I got the notification and was shocked to see the score you got.)

Chaki, welcome! Stick around! Your twee quotient will NOT automatically be raised 15 points, but you WILL end up addicted to spouting banalities, which is something you should know. Please please tell you now. That sort of thing. (You knew I was SO going to do that, FYI.)

Huck, would I offend you if I mentioned that that elementary school-aged photo of you makes you look like a beatnik from the '50s? You look as though you should be going on about driving in the midst of fog on a bumpy road in the middle of the night and using the journey as a metaphor for the challenging nature of everyday life. Or something.

This morning was so sunny & spring like it was almost a pleasure to get out of bed & come to work. (since then it has become overcast & bleurgh, such is like i guess) I have decided to continue with my studies & finish off the course I started years ago. It means 3 months hard slog to sit an exam in June & paying out money I can't really afford, but now just seems the right time to do it! Motivational comments would be appreciated!!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 15 March 2004 12:58 (twenty-two years ago)

good luck! be sure to kill those who'd get in your way!

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Monday, 15 March 2004 13:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Cool, ta KF, I'll try to remember that one!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 15 March 2004 13:32 (twenty-two years ago)

Dee, no offenxe taken. That's probably exactly what I was going for back in '97 when that photo was taken.

Also, I just want everybody to know, that my beard makes me look hot. Like really freakin' sexy. Sexy like Prince. Only not.

Also, okay Friday night. Somebody really needs to ask me about that.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 15 March 2004 14:45 (twenty-two years ago)

pitchers of beer...8 of them to be exact. do not make for a fun filled saturday morning.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Monday, 15 March 2004 15:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Huck, Friday night???

My Grandaddy is dieing, most likely. My mom is really upset even though he was a horrible dad and was married 10 times. He had an aneurysm and is in surgery now, but has a slim to none chance of survival.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 15 March 2004 15:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Huck - do tell!
Chris - that's harsh
Sarah - that's awful, hope you are ok petal! xxx

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 15 March 2004 15:26 (twenty-two years ago)

It's sad. He was an alcoholic who beat my mom and her brother and at least most of his wives. Some even ran away! He is still legally married to a couple of them. He already told my uncle that he didn't want my mom to know when/if he died and that he wasn't leaving her anything. When my youngest sister tried to call him because she was upset he was dieing, he said, "I don't really know you. Why are you calling me?" It's weird though. Apparently, he made some sort of video he wants my mom to watch AFTER he dies. He told my uncle not to give it to her until he's gone.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 15 March 2004 15:30 (twenty-two years ago)

that doesn't include the 4 Smithwicks before the pitchers. I was drinking with a friend though.

― Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Monday, 15 March 2004 15:31 (twenty-two years ago)

― kephm, Monday, 15 March 2004 15:32 (twenty-two years ago)

That sounds pretty horrific Sarah. I don't know whether him seemingly not being not a very nice person makes it easier or more difficult. my sympathies for your family.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 15 March 2004 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

oh so does mine, when i got home friday night i fell down in my driveway destroying my knee and my back. Then i threw up.

Okay, okay.
So Friday night. As stated, I was sent out to cover the Unc1e K®acke® show at the Cas!no. Didn't even bother finding someone to come with me, having already abused my friends and family with N@n@ M. and Elvis tributes and the like. I spent the opening band's set playing the slots. They were a blues bar band. But in retrospect I would have been better off enduring another "Mustang Sally" than merely tossing $30 down the tubes.
So concert comes on, pretty dull. REO Speedwagon meets Skynyrd. Concert ends early, like shortly after 11, I'm bummed out. Instead of going home and doing the SMART thing, writing up my thoughts, I go to the neighbourhood Irish pub (where I took Chris P. when he was here) to see what's what.
I know half the people in there. Blah-blah-blah, no I can't get you Pixies tickets, asshole, yadda, yadda. Hey! There's what's her face, Francine, let's call her, my old pal from high school, who I stayed with in T.O. for a week in 1998 and haven't seen since!
Turns out her sister is opening a martini bar two blocks over, and they've just finished painting. Tequila shots! Catching up. I don't currently talk to ANYONE from h.s. so I hear a lot of news. Reminiscing. I used to buy booze for my peer groups as I looked 19 when I was 16. Francine says my beard makes me look younger than I did 10 years ago.
Hey, who's that guy with the frou-frou hair? Is it? It IS! N!cklebaque inna house!
Francine's sister goes over to talk them, cuz she's, uh, like that. They come over! Tequila shots!
"I'm gonna fall asleep in here," says Captain Frou-Frou. "I wanna go someplace loud and obnoxious."
I suppress a sarcastic comment and suggest we go to a club where a local, but internationally renowned, death-metal band is having their CD release party. Me, Francine and her sister and her sister's friend take a cab. N'Baque takes THEIR TOUR BUS.
Inside, everybody knows me there, live music venue being almost my second home over the years. Sister and her friend take off with the 'Baque and eventually split for a dance-y-er niteclub.
F and I debate entering the pit. Instead, we go by cab to the local strip club. The local non-alcoholic strip club. Neither of us has ever been, so we're a little giddy but I'm surprisingly NOT roaring drunk (I don't drink much anymore, and generally find myself blotto way too quickly).
We take a booth, with our bottled waters and the place is surprisingly empty for 2 a.m. Friday night. A very young girl comes and sits with us for table dance solicitation purposes. F tells her about hanging out with N'baque.
"I love N'baque!" she screams. "I'm obsessed with them! Why didn't you tell them to come here?"
Feeling somewhat guilty, we get a table dance.
The young dancer furtively rubs her chest while tittering on about N'baque. Not too erotic, that.
But, y'know. That's not the point. F and I were sitting real close to each other, and it's like, this weird warm feeling. And then, as the dancer drops her g-string, I realize it!
F is like my sister! I mean, we were in the same gang or whatever in high school, she was actually the first person, the first person my age, to talk to me when I moved here in tenth grade and we always hung out and dating or romance or whatever was never really an issue that came up between us. We just, y'know, I don't know, liked each other but not like that!
So we took a cab back downtown and parted, she kissed me on the cheek and gave me her number and we were just so brother and sisterly! It was really cool.
So I think I have a friend again! Here, in this town.

okay, dull story, whatever.

Neato, Huck. My female friends have never suggested a strip club.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 15 March 2004 18:30 (twenty-two years ago)

hunh. that's odd. The only two times I've ever been to strip club were at the behest of the females in the group.

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Monday, 15 March 2004 18:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Just Regina strip clubs from what I remember, or is it like that everyhere in SK, Huck? I know you can drink in ours.

― Bryan B Sure (Bryan), Monday, 15 March 2004 18:31 (twenty-two years ago)

everywhere in SK. it's a provincial liquor law, and it used to extend to banning the serving of alcohol in places where women were wearing spandex, but the local football team got that fixed.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 15 March 2004 18:32 (twenty-two years ago)

It's ok, luna! No word about my Granddaddy. When we were little, I used to eat lots of apples with him and go watermelon picking & fishing on his farm in Texas. He had the curliest white hair and blue blue eyes. But also, he was an asshole to my mom, to my Grandmother, to all of his many wives and children. I am actually hoping his death will bring some resolution to my mom's past.

Well, Huck, I'll have to save your story for my evening reading. My sister stole the book I was reading anyway (and the NEXT one I was going to read, * grumble grumble *).

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 15 March 2004 19:52 (twenty-two years ago)

We have a few nonalky strip clubs in the greater Portland area -- one is called "Jiggles" and it's a "Gentleman's Juice Bar".

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 15 March 2004 19:57 (twenty-two years ago)

And no, Ned, I'm not going to take you there. (Huck: Maybe.) (Luna: If you insist.)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 15 March 2004 19:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, this place I went to had the words "gentleman's club" on the door, but, uh, the state of Gentlmanliness is in crisis, if what I saw inside is any indication. Gentleman = farmboys.
There was some big cattle ranchers's auction in town.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 15 March 2004 20:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Sarah, it's not that great a story. But it does involve your sister.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 15 March 2004 20:08 (twenty-two years ago)

And no, Ned, I'm not going to take you there.

Quite so. (Your recording request has been completed, BTW)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 15 March 2004 20:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Markelby, you obv. don't have friend's like me.

I also thought the stripper's genitals were a surprise to Huck.

Here, if the bar's all-nude, no liquer. But BYOB. woohoo.

I took anight off from work Sat., spent money i couldn't afford to see a mediocre set from a band I love. But then, my expensive drunkenness emboldened me to give my crush my number.

He called yesterday. sweettt. . .

Hey guys, remember when quizzes were all the rage? We were so young then.

I was kind of depressed this morning about my inability to get a job (yes, still), but then I took an hour and a half long nap and felt a little better. I'm excited because Sarah and I are now actively looking for band members for our new rock band. We posted an ad on craigslist, and recorded rough demos of the two songs we have completely done. I am ready to rock.

Huck, that is an amazing thing that happened to you. Wow.
Chris V., beware of those drunken fests!
(Ooh, Chris P. and Ned planning something. This oughta be interesting.)
Jeanne, I'm sorry you miss your cat.
kephm, you bahstid, you OD'd on cookies and didn't invite me to the gluttonfest?! ;)
Sam, you go with your crushee-pursuing self!

Me, I'm out of it at the moment. I'm floating just slightly above consciousness and am struggling to maintain my contact with solid ground. It was interesting earlier in the evening as I tried to prepare dinner; even though I was a good girl and did everything I should, right down to cleaning up after myself, it took me all I had to complete everything. Funfunfun. ;)

On the front page there's a story about a dude who robbed a bar (and whose face was clearly captured by surveillance equip), and then a few hours later, went outside of his house to harangue the cops who were towing somebody ELSE's car off his street.

Then on the front business page, actual headline: "Hog farts could light up a village"

Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place

I don’t feel like bein’ lonely tonight
You see, I want, I want some company
And you look like you just hold tight
You’re the kind, you’re the kind who’s spirits are runnin’ free

Let’s take a sip of some cold, cold wine
And dance to the music nice and slow
And you won’t be under any kind of pressure
You see, we’ll just let, we’ll just let the evening flow

Come on and go with me (I’d sure like that, baby)
Come on over to my place (It would be so nice, it’ll be so good)
Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place

You look like you’re just bored to death
And you wanna get away, you wanna get away from this noisy crowd
Let’s go where it’s nice and quiet
Where there’s nobody, there’s nobody else around

Let’s sit by a cozy lit fire
And we be in each other’s company
Now how does that sound to you
You see, ‘cause it sounds so good, it sounds so good to me

Come on and go with me (Would you do that, baby)
Come on over to my place (Would you do that, baby, would you do that, baby)
Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place

My car’s right outside, we can leave right now
That’s if you’re ready to go
And I know you’re just beatin’ me
You see, I’d understand it, I’ll understand it if you said no
But don’t you do it, baby

Come on and go with me {Mmm, mmm} (Come on, baby) {No, no}
Come on over to my place {Not tonight, no} (You see it’s not far from here)
{I believe you}
(Would you just take a minute and think about it)
{Oh, man}
(Would you just think about it, think about it, yeah) {I’m thinkin’ about it}
{But I really have to say no}

Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place {No, I know}
(You’re sittin’ here, you’ve been sittin’ here for quite a long time)
{Yeah, I’m slightly bored, I hate bein’ bored}
(See, I’ve been watchin’ you)
{I’ve been doin’ the same thing}
(Girl, I’ve had my eyes on you)
{I’ve been checkin’ you out all night long}
(You look so nice and you look so sweet)
{Mmm, hmm, thank you}

Come on and go with me {That was sweet} (You look like you oughta be with me)
Come on over to my place {Yeah, but what are you gonna with me, that’s the problem}
(It seems that you feel the same way I do)
{I think it would very interesting}
(It seems that you need some company too)
{Mmm, oh, boy}
(Yeah)

Come on and go with me {You said your car is right outside, right in front}
Come on over to my place {And you’re gonna bring me home after}
(Would it be all right with you)

Come on and go with me (If we left here and we went somewhere else, baby)
Come on over to my place (Somewhere where it’s nice and quiet)
{That’s nice} (Nice and quiet)
{Yeah, that sounds a little better than this place}
(Where we could sit down by a cozy lit fire)
{Mmm, mmm, hmm}
(We could sip a little wine) {Oh, yeah} (Work things out)

Come on and go with me {Well, I cannot stay long} (Work things out)
Come on over to my place {We got an hour, no more than that)
(Lady, you won’t be under any kinda pressure)
{Please, I cannot stand pressure}
(I wouldn’t do that, baby) {Okay} (No)
{Well, would you get my coat} (See, I wouldn’t do that, baby)
(See, I just wanna sit down and get to know you a little better)

Come on and go with me {Okay, just for a little while} (I swear you look so good to me)
Come on over to my place {Are you gonna pay for my drink} (You look so good to me)

You can also hear at the end of it as it fades out "pour it on my nuggets."

My favourite character, Meldrick Lewis, got in a marriage-ending fight with his wife because he refused to take down his crushed-velvet TP painting in the dining room.
I loved that show.

To be loved and be loved in return
It’s the only thing that my heart desires
Just appreciate the little things I do
Oh, you’re the one who’s got me inspired
Keep on liftin’, liftin’ me higher

So good, good lovin’ somebody
And that somebody loves you back
It’s so good needin’ somebody
And that somebody needs you back

We can build a world of love, a life of joy
Make our goal each other’s happiness
I will do for you anything that I can
Oh, everyday I wanna do a little more
Do a little more, just a little bit more

It’s so good, good lovin’ somebody
And that somebody loves you back and that’s a fact
It’s so good wantin’ somebody
And that somebody wants you back

Said it’s so good

Oh...ho...

So good lovin’ somebody
And that somebody loves you back and that’s a fact
It’s so good needin’ somebody

Now she’s givin’ 70% and I’m givin’ 30
But you just don’t know how it feels to have somebody
That you can share your life
Somebody that you don’t mind talkin’ to
Somebody that you don’t mind goin’ the middle of the road
I know a lot of guys today they wish they had somebody just like you
I don’t know when the last time I told you
But girl, you make me so very happy
I think we’ve got something that a lot of people don’t seem to have

And it gets bigger baby, and heaven knoooooows
And it gets sweeter baby, as it grooooows

And do I love you my oh my

Light the lamp and fire mellow,
Cabin essence timely hello,
Welcomes the time for a change.

Lost and found, you still remain there.
You'll find a meadow filled with grain there.
I'll give you a home on the range.

Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?
Who ran the iron horse?

I want to watch you windblown facing
Waves of wheat for your embracing.
Folks sing a song of the grange.

Nestle in a kiss below there.
The constellations ebb and flow there.
And witness our home on the range.

Who ran the iron horse?
(Truck driving man do what you can)
Who ran the iron horse?
(High-tail your load off the road)
Who ran the iron horse?
(Out of night-life-it's a gas man)
Who ran the iron horse?
(I don't believe I gotta grieve)
Who ran the iron horse?
(In and out of luck)
Who ran the iron horse?
(With a buck and a booth)
Who ran the iron horse?
(Catchin' on to the truth)
Who ran the iron horse?
(In the vast past, the last gasp)
Who ran the iron horse?
(In the land, in the dust, trust that you must)
Who ran the iron horse?
(Catch as catch can)

Have you seen the grand coolie workin' on the railroad?
Have you seen the grand coolie workin' on the railroad?
Have you seen the grand coolie workin' on the railroad?

Over and over,
The crow cries uncover the cornfield.
Over and over,
The thresher and hover the wheat field.

Dealing with short-time co-workers who have nothing better to do than whine about how much they hate their job, and wouldn't it just be better if they left today rather than Friday: c/d?

Honestly, I want to fucking scream "JUST GET THE FUCK OUT THEN, YOU USELESS BITCH!" at her, but that would mean she'd leave and I'd get stuck with her work and I'm not eager to do that before next week, so can't I just hit her in the head with a shovel instead?

We're going to the Irish Lion tonight, and part of me wonders if that's insane, given that it's St Patrick's Day, spring break, and a college town. But they have roast duck and single-malt scotches, so the other part of me says hush up, bitch.

Haven't yet found out if the area McDonald's carry shamrock shakes, one of the few things I missed while in New Orleans. Why is this thread not wall-to-wall shamrock shakes? They rule, dammit, and TODAY IS THE DAY OF THEM.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:33 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah two t's. butt-ch, not buh-tch. my uncle one time called me buh-tch when I was really young, my sister mispronounced it as butt-ch, and the name stuck.

HOLY SHIT shamrock shakes!

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:37 (twenty-two years ago)

HOLY SHIT shamrock shakes!

See? Go get one! The last time I was somewhere where they made them, I waited until relatively late at night, and they were out cause they hadn't refilled the machine. No one wants leftover Shamrock Shakes the day after St Patrick's, apparently.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:39 (twenty-two years ago)

so, in the community events type column that I compile, I made a goof (or more likely the church made the goof) and accidently sent St. Patty's Irish Stew seekers to a gay wedding.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:40 (twenty-two years ago)

They have them for more than one day, don't they? I know I remember there being Shamrock Shake Month. I'm scared to go to McDonald's because I may be forced to buy a hamburger, too.

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Damn straight! St. Pat's is the best day to get pissed, get munched and get laid (not necessarily in that order, and if you're creative about where).

What's in them, though?

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I think they have them for like the month before St Pat's, but either they end the day after, or at least this one place did -- it was years ago, since the McDonald'ses in New Orleans don't do them at all. (Which is weird. There are lots of Irish there.)

They're mint, Nichole! Kind of. The mint flavor is not very strong, it's not like ... Scope. It's mostly just the joy of having a green shake.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:46 (twenty-two years ago)

This Irish Lion place has whiskey pie. Now, I don't know what that is, but I do know that it's WHISKEY and PIE, so that's pretty damn all right.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 17 March 2004 19:50 (twenty-two years ago)

The mint flavor is not very strong, it's not like ... Scope.

And I just got excited, knowing there was a way to stay kissably fresh and snack at the same time.

The unfun part is realizing that they only make the shakes once a year, which means poor Mr Leprechaun has been thinking about baseball and pinching his begorrah for a damn long time.

and then there's the whole matter of trying to smuggle leprechaun spooge into the country, since i think it's not a controlled substance.

maybe you could fill up a bottle of "Pert" and claim to the airport security personnel that it's just conditioner.

and then, when they make you put some in your hair while you're goign thru the security checkpoint just to prove it really IS conditional and not contraband, you can emulate the Herbal Essences commercial where the woman fakes having an orgasm while using hair care products. They'd probably laugh at you routine, but you could turn to the audience and give a wink, since only you & they really know that you've just given yourself a rubdown with Leprachaun Formula #44.

really, it could open up a whole underground culture of leprechaun spunk mules.

after a while, the culture would be popular enough so that rappers would drop tracks about it, and you'd see cop shows where they would make busts & stuff.

this, of course, would lead to fun scenes where the one detective always has to stick the switchblade into the mess to taste it. "Oh yeah, this is real. 100% Mint Gold. Ohhhh yeaaaaahhhhhh."

and then his buddy, the other detective, would say, "Jim, you can stop scooping that spunk into your mouth; we're pretty sure what it is by now."

Crazy like a FOX.

Yeah. See. I figured, it's spring break, and this is the kind of college town where the kids actually leave for break, which if you're not going to Cancun or Boise or whatever swanky resort type place people go to, I've never understood. You have a week off, you want to spend it with your parents? ... are you eleven?

But anyway. I figured, hey, maybe just maybe, that means we'll have a chance of getting in to the one Irish place in town on St Patrick's day, if we go wicked early. We got there at 4:30 ... and there was already an hour wait even for bar seating, much less the restaurant part, and no room left to stand anywhere while waiting.

We went to the bar-restaurant next door, where a tumbleweed tumbled past my feet while crickets chirped in the silence.

On the plus side, the bar-restaurant next door had Hoegarden (gaarden? gaaaaaarden? are there umlauts at large?), my beer of choice, and the hottest hot wings I've had from a place that only had one level of hotness. So it's all good.

But I did not get a shamrock shake, and so I hate you, Luna. I think my hate is redirected Samwards, now, since she has my weather while I have rain and slush.

Oh yeah, my column -- I don't want to direct link. It's at rpg dot net, and from the front page go to "1st thing we do let's kill all the..." -- that's mine. It's geeky in more than one way, but that's the job.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 18 March 2004 00:19 (twenty-two years ago)

You know, I have no clue as to whether or not any of the McDonald's over here have EVER carred the Shamrock Shakes. I remember trying one once back when I was about nine years old (different locale, natch) and I think I didn't like it at the time, but that was back when I wasn't too wild about mint and so that could've explained it all.

Hm. I'm going to be going out (dinner run) at 7 p.m. I'll pass by a McDonald's to double-check. (We've got one unbelievably close to the house.)

I totally forgot about St. Patrick's Day, so of course I ended up going out in an outfit without even a bit of green on it. The grade school I graduated from conditioned me to actually care about such things. Even the teachers would give you grief if you didn't wear at least one thing that was green, which was kinda going beyond the call of duty considering our uniform colors were dark blue, black, and white.

luna, thanks for reminding me of Red Meat. I haven't seen one of those comic strips in ages and ages. Well, not necessarily that long, but it's been a few years. The Guinness -- was it at least a really good Guinness?

Excuses, excuses, Tep. What about when you're sober?

you should keep it there forever and once a day stare at it mournfully while a single, lonely tear runs down your cheek

Forget that shit. Set a timer, and detonate it outside their office, instead.

i've never heard the mountain goats before

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Thursday, 18 March 2004 03:23 (twenty-two years ago)

i still have never heard anything by Momus or mntn goatz.

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 05:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Mtn Gtz is good shit. The new album's one of the first things I bought when I got paid this month.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 18 March 2004 05:08 (twenty-two years ago)

oops, I cannot believe that to this day you haven't checked out anything by Momus!! Especially considering the fact that you two are total dopplegangers!! Yes, I remember!!

BTW (a general BTW -- I know you're morally against McDonald's, oops), I drove past McDonald's. Too dimly lit to see if they were advertising any Shamrock Shakes. Knowing this area, though, the chances are fairly decent they didn't have any.

I didn't drink it - it's in a can, so probably not, but it's sitting here on my desk AS A SIGN OF THEIR BETRAYAL!
Ahhhh. Well, considering the fact that it's canned Guinness (which boggles the mind, really), it would be a good idea to just keep it sitting on your desk as a reminder to them of the day they kept you hangin' on. "Why don't you be a man about it? You're just usin' me, HEY, abusin' me!"

*ahem* Excuse me. Got a bit carried away there.

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Thursday, 18 March 2004 05:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh yeah, and I too should check out TE MUTI GAS (*smile*), FYI. Would be a really good idea. (As for Mr. Momus... well, if he'd permit the checking out of his music, I would.)

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Thursday, 18 March 2004 05:19 (twenty-two years ago)

I never did make it to a McDonald's. Which is making me want a shamrock shake reaaaaaaaaalllllllyyyy bad. I may wake up at the buttcrack of dawn and force the morning crew to make me one.

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 05:21 (twenty-two years ago)

nothing wrong with canned guiness. it's got that weird floaty thing in it.

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Thursday, 18 March 2004 05:50 (twenty-two years ago)

but does anyone drink it straight from the can?

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:09 (twenty-two years ago)

you pour it into a glass. duh.

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:28 (twenty-two years ago)

i know. i was wondering if there were some fools who, like, always drink Bud and then win 50 bucks at the dogtracks and say "dude, let's get some REAL beer!!", buy Guiness, and proceed to chug it from the can.

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:38 (twenty-two years ago)

shut up, it was just the one time. really.

― Huck, Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Nothing wrong with drinking Guinness from the can (not that I've ever done it). It's not like it's super fabulous once it gets over here in a can anyway.

― Bryan B Sure (Bryan), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:15 (twenty-two years ago)

have you ever seen what happens when you pour it into a glass? cascades for about a minute. that looks pretty important w/r/t taste. plus, HEAD!

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:30 (twenty-two years ago)

ok, but if I had nothing else I'd still be cracking that fucker's tab and popping a hole in the bottom.

Oh my god. There's nothing like listening to Lightning Bolt at 8 AM. The best current band? Yes, probably.

I had a Guinness last night. In a crappy plastic cup. We met a weird drummer guy to be in our band. He seems nice enough, but as Sarah mentioned afterwords, his sense of humor was so sarcastic that it was impossible to tell when he was joking. Then after we left, she said that he looked like Gareth from The Office, and dammit, she was right.

Congratulations, Ned. I just wasted 10 minutes trying to find that quote from Empire Strikes Back where some Rebel doofus says something to Han Solo about how having a price on your head makes life hard. Not like leading a galactic revolution is a piece of cake? I mean, WTF? Everytime I think about those movies I feel more and more ripped off.

Also, I hate stupid people who try to have opinions on things just for the sake of appearing smart. If you really want to be smart, try fucking KNOWING WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT MORON!!!
This isn't addressed to anyone here, just someone I'm on a committee with who has suddenly decided to chime in with an ignorant and bad idea.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 18 March 2004 16:42 (twenty-two years ago)

You've just nailed what I really think is the most common flaw of twentysomethings, though, Huck. It's easy to see how it develops, but I think it becomes a conversational habit more than anything else, like saying "cool" when you don't mean cool, or "how's it going" when you don't care, etc.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 18 March 2004 16:45 (twenty-two years ago)

FWIW, I think the person I'm so flipping annoyed with is in her 30s.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 18 March 2004 16:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, it's not limited to people in their 20s. Just common there. (Right after reading this thread, the next thread I read had an example that I don't believe is a twentysomething. Etc.)

What I hate today is headaches. I get them all the time and that's nothing new, but lately it's been a lot more persistent -- I've been taking eleven, twelve, fifteen Excedrin Migraine a day for like a month now. More than a month, cause I had been at Valentine's Day. It's annoying.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 18 March 2004 17:20 (twenty-two years ago)

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 18 March 2004 18:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Honestly, though, Excedrin Migraine is nothing but aspirin, acetaminophen, and a weak cup of coffee's worth of caffeine. I'm not sure why they advise you to stick to two a day, especially when it takes three in a dose to even have any effect for me. Either aspirin in high doses is bad, or they just don't want complaints of jitters from people who are taking this in addition to their pot of coffee and diet pills.

Anywhere I can walk to in under an hour.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 18 March 2004 18:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Tep I think the warning is b/c that much acetmenophen and aspirin can be hell on your stomach.

If you're taking that much, you really need to see a dr. and get something else. Not good.

that much acetmenophen and aspirin can be hell on your stomach.

I would agree with Sam that it would be best to find a drug that would be more effective. That way you could abuse your liver that much more with alcohol if you want to.

So, after weeks of complaining about not having any interviews, any prospects, or any money, I know have an interview tomorrow, then I'm temping all week next week, and another interview the Monday after that. Plus I had a recruiter call, ask me some questions about a job I had applied for that they're handling, and then ask me to resubmit my resume so they can present me to the client. I don't know why I hadn't been getting any calls, and then I got three calls today. Maybe it's the new haircut.

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 19 March 2004 00:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I was so addicted to refrigerated/frozen frosting when I was a teenager, shortly after the "microwaved French fries with butter" phase. The girl I had a thing for hooked me on it, and I somehow remained unable to transmute that interaction into sex, but still, it was good frosting.

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 19 March 2004 00:44 (twenty-two years ago)

I messed up, forgot I was making a half recipe, and put a whole recipe's worth of cocoa in there. Then to make it the right amount of dry materials, I threw away half a cup of the dry mixture (powdered sugar and cocoa). But that means the proportion of cocoa to sugar was still off, which might be what messed it up/made it even better.

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 19 March 2004 00:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Realized a few minutes ago, again, how very small the world is. Let me show you:

Responded to comment on LiveJournal of Friend Q, who is someone I know because she is close friends with the ex of my Ex K, one ex ago.

Person I was responding to turned out to be someone I knew from when I lived in Mass with Ex D, three exes and eight years ago, and who babysat for me. D does not know Q or K. Q is, presumably, the center of the universe.

Huck, Where are the Pixies dates posted?

Nick doesn't slobber on me in his sleep, but I elbox him a lot throughout the night just in case. I also elbow my nightstand sometimes (oucheee!!!!).

Hi Huck! It's nearly 1 and I'm just eating breakfast. And watching NCAA scores, hoping for the SC numbers to start dramatically rising.

A friend of mine IMed me for advice about what waxing is like--he was thinking of waxing his own back, which I just can't imagine having the flexibility to do. I googled 'back waxing' and the first hit was something about back, crack, and sack waxing.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 19 March 2004 18:56 (twenty-two years ago)

where are you, JuliA? You appear to be in the same Time Zone as me. I'm horrible with remembering stuff, so forgive me for not already knowing.

Waxing, huh?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 19 March 2004 19:14 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm in the boring part of Chicago (the suburbs).

I keep starting to write emails that I never finish and then it's this nagging thing in the back of my head that I have weeks-old emails in my drafts box. But finishing my thoughts and sending them on seems too complicated.

My head is filled with Bowie and not much else.

Don't be sad, Huck. My mom is sad because she didn't get this job she interviewed for yesterday. Her email this morning said she had no hope left. My friend in Madison's grandmother just died. NA is upset about lack of job. I can't take any more sad!

Thankfully, it's a pretty day out and it's Friday - Almost the weekend!?!!!

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 19 March 2004 19:58 (twenty-two years ago)

It's really nice here. I'm cheering up. I get to leave soon. And I have a whole lotta work to get done, but it's sort of fun work, and maybe more importantly, it's work that I sorta believe in. I mean, whatever. I have to write four articles, 2 about people whose music I like, 1 about a band who I like as people, and 1 about a comedian.
Fuck, I've been busy and didn't even notice.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 March 2004 15:21 (twenty-two years ago)

explain pink.

I have potential for humilation today. I'm wearing an off-the-shoulder sweater and therefore strapless bra. It keeps slipping down and once already I've looked down and saw nippelage. not good.

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Monday, 22 March 2004 15:22 (twenty-two years ago)

It is obviously your duty to the men of ILE to post the gory details of this experience here, Pink.

(I also have an annoying bra on today.)

I've been away for a week as you know, and very nice it was too. Apart from the weather, which wasn't. Now I am back at work but it's Easter vacation so there are blessedly few students here to wind me up [er I mean make entirely reasonable requests for my dedicated, professional help], and I can use my Monday to catch up with ILE and practise for my scary presentation this week.

Ooh, I got my first mark back from last term and it was an A-. Hurrah!

― Archel (Archel), Monday, 22 March 2004 15:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh. I lost my beard yesterday. I tried trimming the moustache, because it was interfering with my eating of soup, and took too much off. So, rather than look like a freaky beard with no moustache guy, I am clean shaven now.
NOBODY has said anything.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 22 March 2004 15:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Geekiest thing I have done today: bought an italic fountain pen just because I wanted one. I'm using it now - as I have quite small handwriting the nib's a bit thick on the up and down line, sigh.

Huck, post pics! Ladies, post pics! (ahem)

― Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 22 March 2004 15:32 (twenty-two years ago)

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Monday, 22 March 2004 15:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Aww Sam, that's harsh!

Well I decided to get a proper fitting & I toddled down to my local Debenh@ms to see the lovely older ladeez. However, I was greeted by about 5 skinny ass girls who were all under 20! OK, I can do this, with boy giving encouraging nods & smiles. So I go in the cubicle & take my top off. She finally comes in & measures me asking me all sorts of unrelated questions whilst her head is buried in my cleavage and I'm like WTF?!! So then she tells me what she thinks I am, not cup size I might add, I told her!! So she toddles out to get me a bra to try out for starters. I specifically asked for 'no padding' as I really don't need it. So she brings this god awful granny padded white (I ask you) catapult looking thing. So after trying it on (nice fit but still) she wonders back into the cubicle where I am still sans top, she then slumps against the wall saying

stoopid assisant: yeah that bra is really ugly. I have exactly the same problem as you
Me: So what size are you (bearing in mind I'm a DD!!)
stoopid assisant: oh i'm a 34B.
Me: (In my head) So how on earth do we have the same problem?)
stoopid assisant: Yeah I've lost so much weight & now me & my sister have to swap underwear because I'm just so skinny now.
Me: Cringing in corner in a bra that is too small for me.
stoopid assisant: blah blah blah So pop your top back on & we'll go out & find you a bra.

So I do this & dutifully follow her around the shop where she picks up 4 different PADDED bras which look huge & horrid! So for the 50th time I tell her that I don't want a padded bra if at all possible.
Then...

stoopid assisant: Have you tried our own range? THEY GO UP TO YOUR RANGE, YOU KNOW DD!
Me: (Starting to go red as everybody in the whole shop looks round to hear who is shouting.) Erm, well yes I have but they don't provide any support.
stoopid assisant: Yeah they are pretty rubbish aren't they?
Me: erm....
stoopid assisant: Yeah well I might be able to order you in some bras is YOUR SIZE but I'll have to check. (this is after she has shouted my size to a few more ppl around the store.)
She makes me wait whilst she is fiddling around with the computer saying 'yeah well it says we haven't got a DD but I know we have & we don't have any in the stock room, blah, blah, blah' etc etc.
So eventually I slink away (sans any bras at all) in my own ill-fitting bra unable to even look at James as the tears start to roll down my face! Culminating in a huge cry outside the shop in the middle of a shopping centre! I still have not received any word from them whether or not they can order my freakishly outsized bras. I mean I'm not that big surely! :-(

― Pinkpadded (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 March 2004 15:59 (twenty-two years ago)

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Thing is this makes me sound like I'm really disgustingly fat & I'm really not that big at all! :-( Those of you that have met me irl, feel free to jump in here!!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Stoopid bitch shop assistants! That puts me off going for a fitting although it's been a hella lot of years since I had one and all my bras are completely crap.

― Archel (Archel), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Well this is why I went Arch, but I expected the older lady kind of assistant!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:10 (twenty-two years ago)

It doesn't make you sound fat (which you're not anyway). What ridiculous shop assistants! I'm glad I don't need to buy anything tha6t involves intimate sizes.

― Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Thank you for an IRL observation Mark!

Meanwhile, at the willy warmer measuring facility...

stoopid assisant: Right Sir, if you'd like to strip I'll just get my tape. I need to take two measurements, firstly flacid & then I'll step outside whilst you get it to its full potential & take the second measurement.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:18 (twenty-two years ago)

I didn't mean to imply that I thought you were fat (which I don't, not that I'd know, but I know there's a differece between curvy and fat).

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:18 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't decide whether "cod-piece fitter" sounds like a better job than "doing odd jobs in rural Canada" (from the "what do you make?" thread).

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:20 (twenty-two years ago)

x-xpost, if only there was a place like that (so long as the stoopid assistants were female!)

Huck, don't worry i didn't think you were incinuating anything of the sort! With the cod-piece fitter job you'd have to be dealing with sweaty (due to the nerves & general uncleanliness) members! euw!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:28 (twenty-two years ago)

pp, that lady was probably just jealous!

you are so not freakish, she was out of line and probably hungry and therefore crabby.

next time you're in london, you should go to one of the fancypants stores where they treat you really nice and help you find exactly what you need (like tallulah by my house or this place i read about in time out that was in brixton or clapham or somewhere South.)

Well, during my roving Quasi-Zen days, I:
built 2 bridges in the woods in Northen Ont travelled by snomobile to the worksite, often hauling timbers for the bridge
Cut down trees with a chainsaw in Northen Quebec (the trees were then used for an onsite obstacle course for kids camp kinda thing)
Planted trees in the interior of BC
laid carpet in a small-town SK RCMP Depot
erected and later struck a stage for a big-ass country music festival
sanded drywall in the suburban sprawl of Calgary & environs
worked in a tiny libary in northern Ont.
Painted a house in Thunder Bay
washed dishes at an Italian restaurant in Banfff Nationaly Park
and a bunch of other stuff.

I used to be so damn interesting. What the fuck happened to me?

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:34 (twenty-two years ago)

oh yeah. different subject--

i was getting jealous of the shamrock shake discussion (until it got gross) because i LOVE mint shakes and it's the only time i like mcdonalds shakes, and i didn't get any shamrock shakes or eggnog shakes this year, because i don't think they have them here.

but you know what they do have? cadbury creme egg mc flurries! oh my god, so good and just so much sugar. people that know me can confirm that i have an almost limitless ability to consume sugar (people at my birthday where i kept ordering mega-rich chocolate melt cakes, to the waiter's horror can back me up)

this is too much sugar. that's so cool! i'm trying to decide when i'll get one, since i think one a year is enough. i only saw the sign last night when i was walking around with a mint-chocolate chip shake in my hand...

I have to run home and clean my place up. It is not in any shape for boy impressing. Hmm. . .

I've totally persued this boy and am a little anxious now that I've gotten what I wished for. What if we really get to talk and I discover I don't really like him after all? Should I attempt a make-out or is that too aggresive?

Don't worry Chris, with every one of those jobs came a supervisor more than happy to chew backy and tell me what I was doing wrong and teach me quant aphorisms.
I still recall the first time I was accused of "fucking the dog." I had never heard the expression before and was mighty confused. My favourite saying though was from this one boss who would bring his home-soda-fountain to every jobsite and surveying the hole I'd dug or whatever say, "Well, if it's good enough for Gladys, it's good enough for me." Or sometimes just, "Good enough for Gladys."

My main qualification for all of these jobs was that I had four working limbs.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:51 (twenty-two years ago)

good luck sam! make-out lady!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Monday, 22 March 2004 16:53 (twenty-two years ago)

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 22 March 2004 17:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Huck - just shaven is more kissable - but you know, beards can be pretty hawt, too.

Sam, I'm keeping my fingers crossed, chica (I want a date like that, dammit!)

It's weird - the evil co-worker is gone now, but so is the guy I really liked, so it feels all empty in the office and I'm a little melancholy. I hate that.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 22 March 2004 17:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I remember the first time I heard that expression. It was like a year ago when Bryan used it. I was also very confused.

I have four working limbs, but barely!

argh. . .

first the girlie whose bday it is was telling me about her two boyfriends. One's 23 and just got out of jail. The other one is in jail. I told her first of all she shouldn't be going with jailbirds and 2nd of all 23 is too old for a 15 yr old.

Then just now another kiddo, trying to settle an argument, asked me to confirm that juvenille detention isn't so bad. I said I had no idea and how did he, "cause I been in there!"

God, I am SO RESENTFUL of ANYONE who earns more than I do. This sucks. I didn't realise how much I resent it until one of my favourite colleagues walked past clutching her payslip. I totally don't begrudge her her meagre salary, but the fact that I am by now pretty sure I'm a damn good worker but earning what most secretaries wouldn't get out of bed for.

Further more, I'm pretty sure I now know where my career's heading and I am SO impatient to start moving up the ladder. Aaargh! I didn't feel this impatient when I was unemployed. It's a weird thing.

cultural barrier: my kids are drawing comic strips summarizing the novel we're reading, my ESL class just drew a blank when I told them this. They didn't understand what a comic strip was. Finally one kid says, 'you know, those cartoons in the newspaper.'

maybe we should read Maus next.. .

oh. me stupid.
I like it. Brown had never been to SK until he came here on a publicity tour, but there's not a lot of ways to draw the prairies wrong, particular in his style. It's got an amazing bibliography, and presents a pretty objective, even-handed take on the Riel Affair. Which is actually pretty rare.

One coworker in particular has pissed me off twice. First, and he does this every day, he checks his voicemail using the speaker function so that the whole fucking world can hear his stupid blahblahblah. And then he's all like "I have some records for the community radio station to give to you, Huck."
So he gives me two LPs, one a Wings album and another some shitty easy listening Christmas album. Oh wow, thanks for saving the station, Mr. Lollygagger.

My date ended, ahem, when I went to school this morning. :)

Wow.

I like this guy a whole lot and the feeling is mutual. We had a fantastic time.

He told me that he was the one who had had a crush on me and was shocked and terrified when I gave him my number. He had to stop and have a drink on his way to my place last night b/c he was nervous.

*sigh* Now I don't know what to do b/c I've been spending time with my ex. When we started hanging out again he told me he did not want a girlfriend and we're just keeping it casual. fine with me. Lately though he's not been acting that way and even told me this weekend that he thinks he's still in love with me.

a code four means either an intruder or someone with a weapon is in the building.

thank you though i'm sure everything will be alright. it's difficult to keep the kids on task though since it takes very little to get them excited.

i can't let them out of the room and one kid keeps complaining that he has to pee really bad. He said he was going to pee out the window. I told him if he did that he might get his stuff shot off. Another kid said, "nah it's too small."

he shot back with, "no, right now it's big." then blushed and said "i feel very uncomfortable discussing this in front of a teacher."

i realized then that my comment was probably out of line. look out for the announcement of my firing. (j/k)

I thought the attorney in there would freak out, but he came out and asked me if I was okay and said he figured it was probably something to do with Laurie... patted me on the shoulder and said 'no, don't be embarrassed' (fuck was I ever) and went back in.

Sorry I've not been around here too much lately. I'm struggling. You'll know my old depression came back strongly in December, I assume from the combined stress of moving house and the eye problems. Well I'm settled in and very happy with my new flat now, and the surgery means I'm pleased with my eyes again - but the depression has not obliged me by going away. It feels particularly frustrating, getting that anxiety and that "what am I gonna do about this horrible situation?" mood when there is no problem to be dealt with and I have every reason to be happy - job going well, enjoying a good social life, more spare money than I've had for years, and something even bigger and better than any of that that I'm not going to talk about. So in summary: I'm depressed that I'm depressed when I shouldn't be depressed. It's driving me crazy.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 23 March 2004 23:19 (twenty-two years ago)

i'm sorry martin. i know that sucks. do you go to therapy or anything?

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Tuesday, 23 March 2004 23:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Depression's a slow mirror -- it won't respond immediately to your movement, and its shape won't always make sense. I think that's true of all depression, situational or purely chemical, and it's just as true that you can get caught in that depressed-about-depression bit. That's not any help, but do your best, Martin, and especially -- if you haven't, or haven't internalized it -- realize that being depressed is not something to blame yourself for or feel guilty about.

― Tep (ktepi), Tuesday, 23 March 2004 23:29 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't add much more to Sam and Tep's good wishes and observations -- I certainly have had some bad bouts during times when things are otherwise fine. We're all here if you need to chat about it. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 00:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Hmm, folks, I know I'm posting blind to this thread once more, but -- have you guys ever felt so disappointed in yourself because of extremely high expectations you had for a particular scenario that, after some serious reflection, you realized were way too unrealistic? And you feel like kicking yourself because you let yourself get all anticipatory and giddy and hopeful when in reality all that you were wishing for ended up not being possible and if you just thought clearly about the situation you would've been able to realize it a long, long time ago?

― Many Coloured Halo (Dee the Lurker), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 06:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Sam - Whoah! I am glad you are safe hun. I hope you can break away from your ex as I think this new guy sounds far better suited to your good self.
Chris - we miss you round here buddy!
Martin - I wish there was something that I could say that could help. Just know that you have many friends here, that are all routing for you. I hope you are well soon, stay strong & if I can help, I'm here. *hugs*
Luna - pretty lady, what's happening? Maybe you need to let loose on that boss' ass more often if it makes you feel better! If the guy came out of his deposition to check if you're ok I wouldn't feel too embarassed. He obv understood where you were coming from!

― Kingfish Cowboy (Kingfish), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 13:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Dee: yes to the expectations part, no to the disappointment part. I think everyone feels that way sometimes, and especially everyone has occasional expectations that've been calibrated too high. I think everyone has to, cause if you don't stumble over too-high expectations once in awhile, it means you've been setting them too low. Gutter, stars, jellybean boom.

Separately: actually did make that doctor's appointment re: the headaches, after coming home sick yesterday from too much Excedrin Migraine and then waking up with the headache this morning. So there we go.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 14:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Tep, my sympathies re the headache. I suffer badly with headaches & migraine & it sux!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 14:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Kephm, I imagine blue cheese pancakes/french toast to be the worst thing in the world. Maybe we should postpone this discussion to sometime after 8:35 in the morning. :)

So I wrote that really long email to my mom yesterday and was holding my breath... This morning I only got three lines from her on the reply. She basically only said she wouldn't call his parents. Well, I guess I can relax a little on that bit at least.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 16:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, with the real ent. ed. out for the week, a story I filed PROPERLY screwed over again by the bosses in the corner offices.
I went to extra-lengths to make sure that wouldn't happen (it usually happens when the ent. ed. is away), but the fuckers still fucked me over (which is what they do, they're fuckers after all).
So now, not only will I probably not get paid for this (since I write on a freelance basis), but a really decent musician will get zip publicity for his show tonight. (at the e-z alibi, so Chris knows he's not getting any pub. support from the venue) I might be able to get him on my show, but still. I DID MY PART.
Though I'm actually not as fuming as I would have been before I quit. The first time. But it's been, y'know, this gradual trust regaining thing and now I'm just, "y'know what, these guys are fuckers. they always will be. I deserve better."

Pink, you are fabulous and I adore you.

Hello to all of you. *mwah*.

Dee, I know just what you mean because I'm in a situation where maybe everything could change for the better and it would be so so so cool, but I don't want to be too hopeful either and end up really disappointed. I've been through so many cycles of this in the past, um, seven years. But you have to have *some* hope. Becoming a total pessimist doesnt' sound like a very good option.

I've been pretty quiet partially because I've had a headache since Friday. Woke up this morning and it switched sides. Just for a little variety, and a break for the right side of my head. I'm really glad you made a doc appt, Tep...the amount of OTC stuff you've been taking would really take a toll if you kept it up too long. And for bad headaches of a certain sort, OTC stuff is pretty much useless in reasonable, non-harmful doses.

And now I dont' remember what I was saying, or what I was intending to say. Or something.

The other day I realized that I understood a joke. One of those delayed-reaction things where you don't fully understand the joke til later. Except that I hadn't seen the person who made the joke in at least three years. Whoooo, I'm sharp.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 17:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Rah for Julia, who is cool. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 17:49 (twenty-two years ago)

I've done that, Jules - usually it had to do with a movie they were talking about that I hadn't seen and then twelve thousand years later, I did see it and got the delayed reaction crack up.

― luna (luna.c), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

I have to admit I'm still sort of irrationally worried the headaches will turn out to be a big damn tumor or something, which I'd rather not know about. But probably it isn't. And doctors are good and all that. So. Monday. Yay. I guess.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 17:56 (twenty-two years ago)

I had something to say to Aimee, and it involved calling her "Lunapants". I forget what, though.

― Markelby (Mark C), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 17:56 (twenty-two years ago)

When you're calling someone Lunapants, do you really need anything more?

Thank you luna, Chris, Tep, and Julia, for you guys are completely and totally awesome for saying what you've said. luna, thank you for being there. Chris, thanks for straining to see the silver lining. Tep and Julia, thank you for being able to relate. I really appreciated your responses.

Why is there a sudden proliferation of dancing bananas here?! Are bananas now found to be funky?! Er, hm, I do suppose that if you keep a ripe banana around for much longer than it's supposed to be around it would be funky, but not in the "shake your tailfeather" sort of manner.

Speaking of tailfeathers... sorry to have missed out on Ass Appreciation Day! Er, even though I hate mine. You know how everyone goes on about J.Lo having a lot of junk in the trunk? Well, she's carting around a mere carry-on bag compared to my checked-in luggage. Even during the days when I was a teenager and running around everywhere like a madwoman, my bum was essentially the same size as J.Lo's. Except when I was a teenager, J.Lo really wasn't that famous, so I didn't get the benefit of hearing, "Oh, I would like to have that kind of butt" over and over and over again in reference to a Gluteus Maximus Like Mine.

*ahem* Sorry for the TMI. Got a bit carried away there.

(also, I can't think of where to ask this question. Archel, you may be able to help. "In The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole" a doctor at one point says the phrase "Bloody Camille" under his breath. Adrian assumes it's some kind of drug, but obv it's a joke, and one I don't get. I don't suppose anyone can explain?

Oh, and don't try googling for "Bloody Camille". Seriously.)

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 25 March 2004 12:42 (twenty-two years ago)

I am now Mark!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 25 March 2004 13:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Hm. I think I used to understand it.

Now all I can think is Camille Paglia or the novel by Dumas. Is it something to do with being a bit of a jessy I wonder?

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 25 March 2004 13:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Pinkpanther, have I skipped over things you've said to me? If so, I am terribly, terribly sorry. I do wish to make it known that it wasn't at all intentional and I want to seriously apologize for even doing anything like this at all. I must also confess that at the time I posted the last message to this thread, I was drugged up on some seriously strong allergy med and I was struggling just to keep awake. I will make this up to you. Seriously. Because you're a sweetie.

― Many Coloured (Slept In) Halo (Dee the Lurker), Thursday, 25 March 2004 14:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh petal, don't worry at all. I just was starting to wonder if there was some reason. Not to worry at all though Dee, no making up necessary. Hope you're ok. *hugs*

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 25 March 2004 14:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Thanks for the kind words. I'm actually getting worse at present. During the worst phase of my depression, 2-4 years ago, I missed a lot of time at work and was in risk of losing my job. When my marriage ended, I focussed very hard on getting to work every day, both as an anchor and because I needed to. I became very disciplined about this, and the immediate sacking threat has gone, but I know it will come back quickly if the sick leave starts climbing again.

But today I couldn't make it. Went to a FAP last night and spent a remarkably long time sitting around not talking to anyone. I've no reason to believe I'm not liked by these people, but that was how I felt, and felt very uneasy about bothering anyone, then I left earlier than intended. A rotten night, waking in a panic several times, then this morning I couldn't face going to work.

I'm getting scared. I had so hoped that after settling into my new home and getting the eye problems fixed I'd be able to start planning coming off the antidepressants. Now I may have to go back to my doctor and maybe get them increased, which would put any chance of getting off them back by months. I find this an unspeakably depressing thought, but I know that the way I am feeling now is getting close to being dangerous.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 25 March 2004 14:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Martin my sympathies. I reiterate what I said upthread, you have many friends here, who care a great deal about you and your wellbeing. Get yourself back to the doctor to see if he can help. Try not to view it as a setback, more of a temporary glitch. Once again, feel free to email if you think it would help. *good thoughts & big hugs*

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 25 March 2004 14:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Hang in there Martin. You rock x

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 25 March 2004 14:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Good morning all!

I am slightly hungover, even though I didn't drink much. Probably mostly tired. You guys (and nearly everyone else in the whole world) missed a good show last night. Seriously, I was the only one there not by accident.
But I had a good time and hung out with the dudes, and even gave them my Tommy James & the Shondells Anthology disc. And when I got home, around 1, I dreamed that I was still hanging out with them and that we went to a really terrible poetry bar.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 25 March 2004 15:32 (twenty-two years ago)

I read that as 'a really terrible pottery barn'...

Last night I dreamt that I was in an incredibly violent gangster film, pretty much everyone had been gruesomely shot already and it was going to be my turn next. Possibly I shouldn't have watched Hard Boiled when I was on holiday.

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 25 March 2004 15:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Your turn to shoot or your turn to be shot?

― kephm, Thursday, 25 March 2004 15:43 (twenty-two years ago)

To be shot, alas. If I was doing the shooting, directed by John Woo, I'd have no complaints about the dream.

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 25 March 2004 15:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I just mentioned to the intern that Gene Not Richard or even Russell, y'know Simmons, had a new album coming out called Asshole, like I was rolling my eyes and stuff and being all "get a load of this guy!" in the late-night talk show opening monologue style that I adopt whenever I want to be condescending.
And her eyes widen and she says, "Ass whore? He's calling his album Ass whore?"
And hoo did we laugh. I think she's all right. For an intern.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 25 March 2004 15:54 (twenty-two years ago)

and now we're making jokes about the mayor and how he's more popular than the pope (there was a poll) and so if the mayor kisses your baby, your baby can kill vampires.
I'm having fun today talkin gto a real person. It's a big step.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:06 (twenty-two years ago)

I give the fuck up. Seriously. I've gotten three emails this morning essentially about what a terrible person I am, thoughtless, inconsiderate, self-centered, etc., and I just give the motherfuck UP.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Luna, what kind of double life do you have where you're a cruel, heartless bitch to people? And what did we do to deserve the sweet, caring, life-affirming stuff that we get from you every day?

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Call me Secret Agent Double O-Asshole.

No no, they make good points. It's not them, it's me.

well, I think you're swell.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Luna, I had that moment a few weeks ago! It was terrible. But then I was reminded of some of my better qualities and that even though I had worked hard to become a better person there is always more work to be done. Not fun but worth it.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:42 (twenty-two years ago)

hey Chris, I am cursed! So far every band that has appeared on my show and then played the EZal has drawn next to no one. I'm not the folk hero I thought I was.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, just goes to show you it takes more than a rave in the daily and frequent play on a single community radio show to draw a massive throng.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't mean it to seem like this is a cry for y'all to tell me you think I'm wonderful - it isn't - I'm just so fucking frustrated. I try to do my best to be there anytime and everytime people need me or want me around, and sometimes it's just fucking tough.

(But thank you. I think you're really great, too).

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, you obviously can't be there anytime anyone wants you around -- there are a lot of people who want you around, you know? And you have to know your limits.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, but it still bums me out that I couldn't even get like 5 people out.
Though I think a few of the people, one or two at least, who came to see you were at least indirectly encouraged by the radio show.

Chris OTM.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes, I suspect you managed to get S!las and his friend there. Anyway we got good response from the people who were there (not that any of them ever bothered to e-mail me or whatever, but it's OK).

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Both Martin and Luna deserve much MUCH good cheer. And then some.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 25 March 2004 18:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Yuk, I have just been to the toilets in my work and there is blood smears all over the inside of the cubicle - finger smears. The toilets in here have always been immaculate, fresh white towels, pot-pourri, decent soap etc. Also the majority of people who work in here are of a professional appearance - expensive cloths etc. It is absolutely beyond me how a woman could be so clatty, especially in the workplace. There must be about fifty women who use those toilets and last week someone had smeared shite round the pan - again there were finger marks in it. I cannot bear to look at my colleagues, it could have been anybody, and I pity the poor cleaner who has to sort out that kind of mess.

― Rumpy Pumpkin (rumpypumpkin), Thursday, 25 March 2004 18:02 (twenty-two years ago)

We managed to solve the mystery of why there are regular pools of piss on the toilet floor. It turns out that outside guests who use the loo don't realise the light switch is outside, and are too embarrassed to ask where it is. So they just wildly flail in the dark and are too shamed to mention it.

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 25 March 2004 18:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Then perhaps they should sit down.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 25 March 2004 18:13 (twenty-two years ago)

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Thursday, 25 March 2004 18:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Martin, I really hope things improve for you. don't think of discontinuing your medicine now and call your doctor to let her/him know you're having problems.

i completely understand the work thing - have missed two days this week now - and am afraid to check my mesages or go back. i'm worried i'll get yelled at/canned and that terrifies me.

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Thursday, 25 March 2004 18:17 (twenty-two years ago)

If it helps any, lunapants, I think people don't generally accuse folks of being inconsiderate except when they expect the opposite; it's a word we use to chip away at virtues, not to highlight flaws. So even if the person(s) emailing you were right -- which I'm sure they're not -- they'd be sandwiching a compliment into their Oreo of bitching.

I just got home; that made sense in my head.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 25 March 2004 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

mmmm oreos! I just had some kit kat kubes, but they weren't anywhere near enough!

Now Luna, it's tough, I know. I had the worst week last week with everyone getting on at me & I was like 'wtf? I do nothing but good for you lot & run around after you, not to mention financially blah blah blah' But still I'm living my life wrong & I let ppl down. So I'm like no, I live my life differently to you & YOU are the one letting ppl down. In short, some ppl that have come to rely on you end up taking & never giving. They become selfish & introverted to the point that if you are not at their beck & call they like you have let them down. Unfortunately, I only know you thru ILX, but I see a wonderful person, a fantastic mother, a generous & considerate person who is always there to offer a kind word or some encouragment. All I can say is that my life is better for knowing that you exist!! If more ppl were like you, I'm sure the world would be a better place!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 25 March 2004 19:42 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm in a silly mood today. Am I ... what's that?... am I... kind of happy?!??

It's almost the weekend. IT's in the 60s out and thunderstorming.

I'm sorry I'm not more attentive to ILX posters in general. I can be pretty selfish. And it's sad, because so many people have reached out to me privately, even just to say hello. I will try harder! Sir, yes, sir!

xpost - funny that I called myself selfish not knowing pink was going to post! But anyway, I agree. Luna, you are fabulous! (to be read like a flamboyant gay man)

*hugs Pinkpanther*

Wow. I really wish I hadn't read the "What's the meanest unprovoked thing you've ever said about someone?" thread. Although there are the genuinely funny stories on there (these would be where the incident was at least a tiny bit provoked), the rest just reminded me of all the crap I went through as a prepubescent and tweenaged kiddo. It was all "Let's make fun of her behind her back and call her the cruellest things we can think of but when she's right in front of us let's pretend like we have no problems with her so that she can go on and be clueless and not know how much we actually hate her", which I didn't even find out about until I was almost ready to leave grade school. And since that hasn't gotten resolved yet, those experiences have impacted my interactions with others in a way where I'm automatically suspicious of others' intentions unless someone's really proven themselves to me. Like, I could go on and post this to the actual thread, but I'm choosing not to, because I feel as though this thread series is a non-judgemental refuge I can run to on this forum. So I go ahead and post this here.

(FYI, I didn't say anything mean to anyone then. I pretty much kept everything on the inside, where all that buildup stayed until, um, now, really. *smile*)

Hey guys & gals! Ahh Monday *sticks 2 fingers up* I am pretty snappy this morning, but not in a bad mood or anything, my already low patience is less that usual. Cyclists & receptionists beware!
Me & the boy decided over the w/e that we are going to go to Glastonbury this year. I am looking forward to it but with a hint of trepidation. I am slightly concerned about the logistics (just need to chill the f@#k out) & also the fact that all around me will be getting off their faces & I wont. hmmm.
Also, (in case anyone is interested in boobgate) I had another fitting & it turns out I'm not the 38DD that the stoopid girl said I was, but 34F!

Hope you are all having a good Monday, or that you will be when you get up...

I turned up at work today at my normal Monday time (10am - my one precious late morning start of the week) to find the place locked and in darkness. Out of five possible staff members, NOBODY was there for opening time at 9am. Arrrrghhh much stress from boss. Not remotely my fault of course but still someone had to start muttering about why wasn't it 'flagged up' that I started at 10. Er, I HAVE BEEN STARTING AT 10 ON MONDAYS FOR MONTHS.

I'd also had to work on Saturday and had a crap time with the buses, the other people on duty for the open day, the alarm system which was activated by a poster falling off the wall (!) and I don't have a code to reset it, and generally I hate my job.

Bryan, drop the Bounty, and have some cereal instead. Bounty's are horrible anyway!

I'm like waiting for the mail to get here and not getting much done while waiting to go to my doctor's appointment. Today's one of those muted Mondays where it isn't crap or anything, it's just ... eh.

(Tuesdays are my Mondays anyway, since I have classes all day and they're hard.)

bounty = coconut filled chocolate bar.

Okay, so I started this story late last night on another thread and promised I'd finish it here.

So last night, I went over to my parents' for Sunday whatever, and my parents, who have recently become these great travellers were telling me about all the great B&Bs they stay in (because they had just booked a beachfront cottage in PEI for a week in June). So they decide to show me what they look like by calling up the websites for them. Whoo-hoo.
So anyway, they're raving about this place they stayed at in Calgary a few months ago and just really gushing about how great everything there was and how everybody was so friendly and informal.
So they call up the website and it's just loaded with pink triangles and stuff.
I'm not sure if my parents were completely oblivious, or if they're just that cool. I kinda think it's a combination. But the place does look really nice and pretty reasonably-priced (except during the rodeo, naturally).

I am home today! (UC holiday, yay.) It's a spectacular day for lollygagging.

This is the thread where we talk about Ned's Heimlich fetish.

― Tep (ktepi), Monday, 29 March 2004 17:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Hey, you're crude.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 29 March 2004 17:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Uuuuuuuuum okay.

― luna (luna.c), Monday, 29 March 2004 17:14 (twenty-one years ago)

There's nothing crude about that!

(Lollygagging. A spectacular day for lollygagging.)

― Tep (ktepi), Monday, 29 March 2004 17:14 (twenty-one years ago)

live on!

(He likes to gag on lollies, see. The pop kind. Then he chokes and people have to perform the Heimlich maneuver on him. Lolly-gagging.)

― Tep (ktepi), Monday, 29 March 2004 17:48 (twenty-one years ago)

New thread, ya punks.
