Who is Juanita?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 15:53 (nineteen years ago) link

I've never actually seen that guy before. Someone even posted a missed connections for him on craigslist.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:01 (nineteen years ago) link

I think pete should be mayor of denver - he's much handsomer, and he knows how to treat the ladies.

I wonder if all those DUDES were penned by the same hand, or if several different people strolled by and just felt the need to contribute.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:14 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm a little sad I wasn't there to look into the DUDE-can

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:17 (nineteen years ago) link

what was in there that was so fascinating?

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:17 (nineteen years ago) link

I never got to gaze into it, if it makes you feel better. That's ok though because I bet it SMELLED LIKE TURDS.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:17 (nineteen years ago) link

Dude, don't poop in the dumpster! Dude!

― Paunchy Stratego (kenan), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:19 (nineteen years ago) link

mer are you still sick? HOWZABOUT SOME COLONIAL HOUSE TONIGHT??

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:20 (nineteen years ago) link

paunchy, I hope that's not what the dudes mean. I think they are trying to say something like: "DUDE, can you believe life? DUDE." And then they threw in a STRAIGHT THUGS. Just cause.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:23 (nineteen years ago) link

I sense several parties took place in defacing that dumpster.

One of which was a drunk, stoned (on kind bud) german exchange student who got involved with some downtown surfer kids. It's obvious to me.

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:27 (nineteen years ago) link

yeah, in your dreams!

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 16:29 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm sad no one is actually IN that dumpster!

Mandee I'm sniffily but def. up for some colonial house. I even have cupcakes I made for mike's bday we can eat!

HOW ARE THE OMELETTES?

― n/a (Nick A.), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 17:34 (nineteen years ago) link

delectable.

― Hunter (Hunter), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 17:38 (nineteen years ago) link

Nick, there are so many good omelettes in denver

the aforementioned pete's kitchen has some pretty good one, as well as THE BREAKFAST KING

I DON'T EAT AT NO DELECTABLE EGG

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 17:41 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't eat ham though.

― n/a (Nick A.), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 17:48 (nineteen years ago) link

Because I am Muslim.

― n/a (Nick A.), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 17:49 (nineteen years ago) link

oh right

don't EVER come to denver because we LOVE denver omelettes

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:03 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't know anything at all about Denver!

Do tourists come there?
Is there skiing?
Do people there have accents? What do they sound like?
Is there any funny local slang I should know about?

― n/a (Nick A.), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:06 (nineteen years ago) link

Sadly my two favorite diners are now gone. The Whitespot and the Colorado Cafe.

― Rotgutt (Rotgutt), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:09 (nineteen years ago) link

The Whitespot is gone??
I never went but I almost forgot about it! How sad!

ps I HATE denver omelettes, but green chili ones RULE!

― mergaypeters, Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:12 (nineteen years ago) link

1. Not really. Except maybe some people on their way to ASPEN!
2. There is, not too far away! Not in Denver proper.
3. We don't have accents, as a rule. If you'd like I could leave you a voicemail for verification.
4. Uhh.. none comes to mind! I will think about this one.

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:13 (nineteen years ago) link

remember when they used to call the white spot THE WET SPOT? HEHEHEHE

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:17 (nineteen years ago) link

4. Are Rocky Mountain Oysters considered slang or a delicacy?

Where was this "wet spot"? It is a far off memory...almost like a dream!

― mergaypeters, Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:21 (nineteen years ago) link

People say pop when they mean soda, that bugs me.

― Rotgutt (Rotgutt), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:26 (nineteen years ago) link

The White Spot was at 9th (or maybe 10th) and Broadway.

― Rotgutt (Rotgutt), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:27 (nineteen years ago) link

Kids made fun of me for saying soda (my parents are from New York) and I had NO IDEA what they were talking about when they said "pop"....so now I don't drink soda hardly ever because it damaged me so much as a kid!

― mergaypeters, Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:32 (nineteen years ago) link

I never hear people say POP anymore and when I hear it it ALARMS ME

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:36 (nineteen years ago) link

hey mer what exactly is trimmed and burning? your bush?

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 18:38 (nineteen years ago) link

muh bush needs neither a trim or a burn!
I think it's a beck song, I'm not sure. I don't remember really. Is it confusing? Maybe I'll put my SERIOUS email address instead...

― mergaypeters, Wednesday, 31 August 2005 19:06 (nineteen years ago) link

OK, that's a tough exchange to follow, but slangwise--

A friend of mine from Ft. Collins didn't even call sneakers "sneakers." They were "tennies." Holy shit!

The White Spot is missed-- home of "The drunkest chocolate milkshake ever." At least, for me.

I think Trimmed and Burning is Built to Spill.

― Hunter (Hunter), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 19:09 (nineteen years ago) link

my mom calls her sneakers TENNIES

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 19:32 (nineteen years ago) link

i call them tennies.

― The Milkmaid (of Human Kindness) (The Milkmaid), Wednesday, 31 August 2005 19:34 (nineteen years ago) link
