Spunky Foonerism

I've also been working on a really funny post about how I put my long underwear on inside out today, and it has been a big problem because the hole that you're supposed to pull your [redacted] out of is oriented backwards. I guess I'll save it for a less somber occasion. Also, the more I think about it, the more confused I get about the topology of the whole situation. I think I will have to actually take them off, invert them and put them back on to be sure that it is even a valid joke concept. Being funny is hard work, it turns out. edit: By some crazy magic, the underpants opening is oriented the same way whether they are inside out or not. So there goes that joke. Life is real fucking bummer sometimes. edit: On the other hand, kudos to the inventors of underpants, what a well-designed product!

Me too to all this. I've been having all these same feelings and thoughts, only much less articulately.

My sister is presently doing her PhD in plant molecular biology, something about genetically modifying cell walls to engineer more suitable biofuel crops. My wife is a genetics postdoc, working on transposable elements and how they destabilize the human genome and cause cancer. Don't ask me what I do, I don't want to talk about it. I just wanted to jump in and say that I also know your pains, both directly and vicariously.

...or you could just step down as king, and set a precedent for peaceful transfer of power. You'd be legendary as the benevolent king of the forums! The next king would probably exile you to Elba or something though, just to be on the safe side.

Maybe so, but it's possible to have too much of a good thing. I'm watching these guys for a friend who is out of town, and I'm learning that it's true what people say about me*. More like wire-haired terror-ier, and chihua-eWHAA, know what I mean? * "He can probably handle four D's at the same time, but it won't be easy." I don't know why they say this about me. It's probably a compliment though, right?

If you have to spend an entire day there, you're probably doing it wrong. I "visit" my "weird forest island" at least once or twice a day, but it typically takes less than five minutes. Also, I can usually check the forum while I'm there, so I'm not sure what your problem is.

The second one. About you being super clever.

Your name and comments have inspired me to spin some .

I still have some questions about Uncle Cody's water. Maybe its explained in the ep and I'll find it on the second listen, but I'm still not entirely sure if he is mining hydrogen to mix up his own special formula of water from scratch, or if he is just mining potash and adding it, along with other special ingredients which he claims are not his cum, to traditional water.

I'm strongly in favor of soup, but she raised some very valid concerns.

Not actually a man, despite the definitely man's name, and also from a foreign land? How delightfully enigmatic. PS In your assessment, was it real English accent, or was it acting? Impressive either way!

I just finished this weeks episode, and frankly, it was really good! I'm not sure why nobody is talking about it. This is quite possibly the first episode* I've really liked. Engineer Uncle Cody Boy was so charismatic! I can almost feel the texture of his freshly mined water through the radio. *Of this show. I've liked episodes of other things before. There was that one Car Talk, and also the episode of the Newlywed Game where the lady said "In the butt."

Yeah! I want everyone to move here so that as I gradually become more sociable and less weirdly shy, you'll be available to take me out to comedy shows, and introduce me to your celebrity friends (e.g. Sean and Hayes and such as). New Orleans is the new Hollywood anyway. Dixon is in New Orleans and keeps talking about meeting at a parade, but how am I supposed to find someone "dressed as salt?" Do you mean the character portrayed by Angelina Jolie? Half of the duo Salt'n'Peppa? The arms limitation treaty? If so, is it SALT I, or SALT II? I was overwhelmed by all of the possibilities, so each time I ran into someone in any type of salt costume I refused to make eye-contact. Dixon, if you were out at the Zulu parade and saw someone who refused to make eye contact with you, that was probably me!

LA can also mean Louisiana, but on this forum I've learned that it mostly means disappointment. As in, "No, I didn't mean Louisiana."

Show's Honor Roll. Jut got back from a bunch of parades. It was real fun, if you like that sort of thing. Now I am very tired and grumpy and in the proper frame of mind to sit down and enjoy what is, by all accounts, a great grep. Speaking of Lent, what is everybody giving up? Discuss among yourselves while I listen to this episode.

I'm thankful that my wife has so many nice friends, and that they are about to come over for a waffle breakfast at my house and then we're all piling into the cars to drive to a parking garage a mile from the zulu parade and then we're walking a mile in the freezing cold and wind to catch a bunch of trinkets that will ultimately just be a chore to give away or recycle. Did I say thankful? I meant resentful. Blegh. Time to get out of bed and have "fun" with "friends." I'm thankful that I'm not a high school girl in one of the dance teams today, they will be freezing their inappropriately underdressed butts off!

Is that 8:30 central time? Because I'm in Louisiana, and I don't want to show up at the wrong time like a idiot. Edit: sorry, that should be "an idiot."

This would be a great prank to play on the opposing MC at your next rap battle!

I always suspected that they were using wacky units of measurements over at the LA sheriff's department. They keep reporting stuff like "Major drug bust - shipment of heroin weighing 7 impounded!" and "APB - suspect is two white males, weighing 260, and 600 tall." It's probably all deciliters or some shit, I don't know.

I think this is in keeping with the original spirit of Valentime's Day, from before it became so commercial and all about women trying to trick us into giving them our candy. It certainly seems like something Leroy Valentime* would have done. *the patron saint of valentime's day

Nice. I hereby assume that in real life you look like a necklace!

Mmmm. Yes, getting those big laughs from the word "Homo." How scientific of you. I, for one, am enlightened enough to think that there is nothing funny about gay people. Unless they want to be funny, in which case I think that they are.

Hmm. Thanks for making the ringtone! Way to give back. If you had an avatar, I would have something to picture in my head about how you look in real life, which would be a big pro from my perspective. Because right now I picture you as a grey man's silhouette. Talk about scary!

Neither of you won because the correct answer is Boutros Boutros-Ghali. Edit: I would also have accepted the proper scientific name for the western gorilla, Gorilla gorilla. Edit: Oh, shit! The western lowland gorilla subspecies name is Gorilla gorilla gorilla!

Ahh don't be cryptic, what are they trying to tell him!? Does Hayes secretly have hairy hobbit feets? Will they offer him money to shave their logo onto his hairy hobbit feets!? That would only work if he walked around barefoot! Or at least he'd have to wear some sort of sandal! Think these things through! Fuck!
