Are you sure that's not the other way around?

'Twas indeed the reference that I was looking for. I know that it was a long thread, and quite a while ago, but I've been flapping around here trying to follow all my favourite folks, that I can't even remember where I've been any more. (Where the hell am I now, for that matter?)

Got it! You were blaming the cat for missing items.

So I don't even need the doggie costume...? (down, Artman)
We need a disappointed, pouting smiley. Can't I at least say that that is a very "stylish" costume?


By the way, that wouldn't be humourous back in Shakespere's day. Not that it is now...:biggrin:

Well, you've already used that one, but it was in a different thread and it's good enough to repeat, so I guess I'll let ya.

By the way, did you guys realize that Shakespeare spelled his own name about half a dozen different ways in his writings? Kinda peculiar for the primary literary light of his time. :confused:

Really? Then again, in his time, I think he really wasn't considered such a great writer. Just because I find him funny doesn't mean I think he's a great writer, actually. It's sort of like vaudeville in old English to me. It appeals to my baser tastes.

I've heard that Shakespeare didn't write Shakespeare's works, but somebody else named Shakespeare wrote them. :biggrin:

What did you say about shakespear?!

Personally I do not care about his name.

Maybe his name is another play on words. *shakes spear*

Please tell me that doesn't mean what I think it means. :rolleyes:

I would like to take a moment here to appeal to your baser tastes myself.
Please! Oh please, please, please,please, please... :cry:

Recalls a little rhyme from my grade school days...

No matter how you shake or how you dance,
The last drop always winds up in your pants. :biggrin:

It ain't Shakespeare, but Shakes Spear may have had something to do with it. :biggrin:

You mean the daystar? Yeah its a freaky thing. I've heard stories about it. It turns you into a lobster if you're exposed to it for too long. Dangerous thing.

But it must have quite a gravitational pull. It keeps pulling me outside! :biggrin: I played hooky today...just couldn't convince myself to go sit in a hermetically sealed building when it's 70 degrees and sunny! I've still mostly been indoors, but I've got all the windows open. :approve:

Cause you know, removing transparent glass has an affect as far as sunlight goes. :rolleyes:

It does...I'm not sure what it is, but I actually start to feel almost carsick if I sit too long in sun shining through glass. But, that's of course not why the windows are open...I'm enjoying the fresh air too! And listening to the birds singing (they sound as happy to see the sun as I am). :biggrin:

"Down in Oakland" by The Transplants is a particularly good song.
 
  • #1,882
The lyrics don't look like much but the song is great. And I don't advise reading the lyrics before hearing the song a few times... it sounds like he is saying different things from those in the lyrics at times, which are better for the song.

How's my thread doing...?Oooh,3140 replies,that's nice.I want it really fat,cause I'm really hungry...

Why do you keep thinking it's your thread? It's my thread! But, yes, it is fattening up very nicely.

You get the impression that the singer is decayed in some way while he's singing. It's moving.
 
  • #1,889
I don't like when decayed things start moving. Save it for the refrigerator thread, or the rotting deer thread. :-p
 
  • #1,890
Like, all the words are sung or spoken sloppily, like he's not really trying, or like he's toothless and has a mouth full of novocaine. But he hits all the notes. It's like some animating force took a corpse and made it sing--its mouth may be rotting but the essence of the song is there.

Why on Earth can you not get over this anti-necrophilia rampage?

Nothin' personal, dude. Just a matter of principle. :approve:

It took me a while to figure out why this bothers you so much. You know, when women tell you, "Over my dead body," they don't mean that literally. :biggrin:

I didn't sneak. I strolled in brazenly and with utter confidence after ensuring that you were asleep...

I don't care. It's a lot cheaper than a regular date and significantly lowers their resistance... (well, after rigor has passed, of course).

Ignore her, Franz. She's just a prude with no sense of adventure... :-p

I have plenty of a sense of adventure, I just want to be alive to experience it! :biggrin:
