way to be timely, Ally.

The guy behind the guy.

You could say that Ally's a real parse-snatcher.

"snatch"

― Allyzay, Friday, 31 October 2003 21:34 (twenty-two years ago)

cunt

Watching The Witches of Eastwick in university years ago, the scene in the church towards the end where the prudish woman yells "WHORES!" prompted this guy to confusedly ask, "Who's Horace?"

"Who Are You", Horace Mann? Is that the Who album you were referring to that was Keith Moon's last one?

Now you're never going to meet my sister, Horace.

― Allyzay, Friday, 31 October 2003 21:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I thought we were doing word association...you said snatch I said cunt

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 31 October 2003 21:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Sure, sure, easy to say that now...

― Allyzay, Friday, 31 October 2003 21:37 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm going home. Sorry to make you blush. I don't think you're a vulva at all, Ally (to use the proper word).

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 31 October 2003 21:38 (twenty-two years ago)

That should go on the off-putting compliments thread!

What does this have to do with our friend Horace? And what's up with the bulge in the pants?

Mann, Horace   

(man) , 1796-1859, American educator, b. Franklin, Mass. He received a sparse preliminary schooling, but succeeded in entering Brown in the sophomore class and graduated with honors in 1819. He studied law, was admitted (1823) to the Massachusetts bar, and practiced in Dedham, Mass., and in Boston. He entered the state legislature in 1827, became speaker of the senate (1835), and was made secretary of the newly created (1837) state board of education at a time when the public school system was in very bad condition. Within his 12-year period of service, public interest was aroused, a movement for better teaching and better-paid teachers was instigated, school problems and statistics were brought to light and discussed, training schools for teachers were established, and schoolhouses and equipment were immeasurably improved. In 1843, Mann studied educational conditions abroad, and in 1848 he was elected to Congress as an antislavery Whig. He ran unsuccessfully for governor of Massachusetts in 1852. In 1853 he became the first president of Antioch College, where he also taught philosophy and theology. He died there, having achieved considerable success in demonstrating the practicality of coeducation and in raising the academic standards of the college. His second wife was Mary T. Peabody, sister of Elizabeth Peabody .

IIRC, he still posts as Dr. Superman, though mostly to I Love Comics.
