Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here

is that why you wrote all those luke-warm half-assed reviews?

you had the self-discipline necessary to be a successful serial killer

I am not going to post to this thread.

I have a cousin I'd make out with. Adodpted, tho.

apparently horses that are gelded - you are supposed to clean that stuff off of them, because it accumulates and could cause an expensive infection if not regularly dealt with.

yeah, I was just about to say, if it happened in real life I'd probably chalk it up to aurora borealis/marsh gas/your imagination. but in this case it's clear that you have daddy issues.

I'm trying really hard not to, but it's painful.

*sigh*

do people really read those signs from nearest to furthest, I've always wondered about that because I see the words all at once, and read "top to bottom" as I imagine most people do.

"it's a fun game to play with the english press..."

was that chaki?

Whoops - looks like I was wrong.

they are also good for balancing/resting things on

*sigh*

That 2nd one. I feel silly

hat trick

My two favorite dudes right there, working together.

I'M SAD REVIVE #34

summary because it was half an hour ago:

I'm sad dudes, again
Had a great trip to Chicago last week, saw all my old friends, remembered that I used to have friends
Back at work, hall conversation: "You're not smiling anymore, now you're not new anymore lol" me: :(
attempt to lighten up I'M SAD REVIVE #34 with second anecdote that was pretty funny, I thought, but it involved a bathroom story with (a lot of) poop and fartz, which is a kinda touchy subject nowadays so I left it alone
keep having childish thoughts about running away and living in the woods/another country/on the beach/working as drunken depressed cook in Antarctica research lab

I dunno, I've always had a good 15-20% of my posts that I delete before I post because they're just stupid, but lately it's probably up to the 50% range. So next time I post something ridiculous, remember that it could be waaaaay worse

ZS fwiw I never think your posts are stupid. Just the opposite. Also, I'm sorry you're sad and lonely.

Given all the Ralph business, I considered a parody/parallel poll:

- Ralph literally believes that Ms. Hoover is his mother
- Ralph calls Ms. Hoover "mommy" because he has trouble distinguishing his personal family life from his public social life
- Ralph's use of the term "mommy" witnesses a parapraxis in which Ms. Hoover, her role as a teacher standing as that of an ersatz maternal figure for Ralph, is transposed with a conception of his mother in that her ability to provide him milk echoes a maternal desire in part established by the pleasure first derived in infancy from being breastfed. For Ralph, who evidences a difficulty in intellectually and emotionally developing beyond an infantile state, Ms. Hoover is "mommy" insofar as she hold the promise of delivering the milk he desires.

Unfortunately the last point, though I myself would totally vote for it, wouldn't fit as a poll option.

in so far as she can

Also, I wanted to post that Ralph sucks, he was the very first character to delve into the sort of cheap, empty gag-dom that took over in later seasons. He was perhaps the first that stopped being a character and became an easy, prepackaged stereotype that frankly, isn't funny.

But I know everyone would take this as challops, etc.

I had third thoughts about posting an elaboration on that point, but then had fourth thoughts, so I'll post it here:

The general notion of ralph's problems with language and his proclivity for fantasy is generally OTM.

Consider when Ralph says to Ms. Hoover, "can you open my milk, mommy?"
Given his cognitive impairments, this may be evidence of an inability to differentiate personal and public lives, insofar as figures do not become fixed in their signification, rather existing according to the scattered logic of the fantastical mind of an individual who has trouble moving beyond an infantile state. Here, Ms. Hoover, in her role as a teacher-qua-ersatz maternal figure, is for Ralph transposed with a conception of his mother in that her ability to provide him milk echoes a maternal desire in part established by the pleasure first derived in infancy from being breastfed. She is "mommy" insofar as she holds the promise of delivering the milk he desires, thereby revealing what, on one hand might be an instance of parapraxis, but on the other hand, might indicate a deeper lack of rooting in symbolic reality. Ralph's readiness to assume the role of a viking - an ideal figure he fantasmatically identifies with - indicates his stance in regard to a life led according to desires evidently detached from reality.

Perhaps, then, Ralph is in fact more a viking than he is a boy.

I've always thought that sleeping women look more like frogs than gorillas.

some gag about the Human Centipede movie starting out strong but does it have legs

All pretty challopy, I guess?

hell yes dude

(btw Fits Of Laughter is my dog)

i wish there was a way to make frozen seltzer pops. that sounds delicious

the rude responses started at the beginning -- ilx seems to reject "shared wisdom" except when it doesn't. It appreciates nuance, except when it is inconvenient.

well, relationships go through different stages. From my experience, after a while you

mordy - you mean frozen but still carbonated? hell yeah!

i know, right?!

you're not supposed to be able to do that anymore!

I've been out most of the afternoon, is Andy Murray Scottish again?

i heard Jason Derulo at a garage sale, and Miley Cyrus at a party -

is *plop* related to a girl problem?

that would have been very very rubbish, so you chose wisely :P

i don't know what it refers to!

^^ perhaps my most common post i have second thoughts about and don't post?

of spreadsheets or via spreadsheets?

is that supposed to be a koala?

I keep restraining myself from starting a ILM thread called "creatively bankrupt newish music critics whose memes are just adolescent elitism".

So much for restraint

The thigh tattoo is subpar because of the artist's boner throb, obv
