AI Thread Summary

Participants joke about the date, with playful banter about managing their group and the antics of a character named Zooby, who is humorously blamed for calendar mishaps. The conversation shifts to light-hearted teasing about various members, including Tribdog, who is humorously portrayed as being in a precarious situation, leading to jokes about his wellbeing and playful insults. The group engages in wordplay and absurd scenarios, including references to hair and fashion, while maintaining a comedic tone throughout. The camaraderie is evident as members poke fun at each other, share inside jokes, and express relief at Tribdog's return, all while weaving in absurd and surreal humor.

hey, he's been a busy guy... bumper stickers don't sell themselves! sides, aren't you the responsible one of the bunch? er wait no i guess that is zoob... er no... danger... ugh.. ahem... um... i think you guys need a manager.
 
Zoobies are inherently unmanagable. Just stay alert, and show no fear.

I thought that was just their hair.
 
I don't believe I know Danger. Of if I do he wasn't all that memorable.
Is he the next recipient of the coveted pink ribbon?

What have I missed? Anything exciting? Based on the glut of emails in my inbox I was expecting to find a dusty, windblown ghost town or maybe something out of Orwell.

Take away the hair, and there's precious little zoobie left.

Little dogs shouldn't whip anything out. The laughter might kill you.

psssh... i don't think trib has anything capable of being "whipped out," you give him too much credit.

I'll get his wallet. Someone grab his watch.

Awesome. Now I can afford to take Moonbear out for sushi.

Someone touch his eyeball. If he doesn't flinch, he's dead.

Hey Ivan!

don't play dead around the zoob!

(you're welcome, dear)

There's no money in this wallet! Just a bunch of strip club receipts and a mail order bride advertisement. You have a lot of explaining to do Tribdog.

The old Vietnamese needle to the genitalia trick always works.

Hey! Zoob spelled backwards is... Could explain a lot.

Wouldn't a thumbtack be more appropriate in this case?

No booz for me. Zoobies like boobies.

I think that was the official first blow of the beating-a-dead-dog portion of the match.

He's going to have to fight me and Artman for it. :biggrin: Danger is your northern counterpart; your twin separated at birth. Really scary to have you both around at the same time now! Don't detonate anything really big, please?

What have I missed? Anything exciting? Based on the glut of emails in my inbox I was expecting to find a dusty, windblown ghost town or maybe something out of Orwell.
I figured since you weren't here, no point sending emails. Where the heck have you been? I was seriously considering writing a letter (now that I found your address again; it got a bit buried) to find out if you were still alive! Do you still have all your body parts? Since SOS is around, we know you haven't managed to explode all of AZ yet.

As for what you've missed, just that monster of a thread you created! Have you seen that thing? It's immortal!

Tribdog, she's yanking your crank. What she really means is that Danger is your replacement. She's just too scared to say it to your face.
 
  • #28
Yay! Tribdog is back!

Correction. Zoobyshoe, Danger, Astronuc and Tridog are identical twins separated at conception (in a Douglas Adams kind of way). It was an experimental precusor to in-vitro fertilization. Somehow we all got sent to different labs in different parts of the world. Looks like Zooby got thawed out first, then Danger, then me, and then Tribdog is the last. They waited a little longer to Tribdog. I think I got crossed with a Wolfhound. :biggrin:

I am still trying to figure out who got what genes. I guess they kept tweaking the process, and ended up with Tribdog who is the youngest. :biggrin:

It was actually five tries, but we don't even talk about Artman.
 
  • #32
don't talk about Artman? I'm afraid to even talk TO Artman.

Seems he got a little freezer-burnt while they were trying to figure out what to do with him. :biggrin:

Talking to him is probably the safest approach. At least then you know where he is.

Hey! One of my moose steaks is missing...
 
  • #35
maybe you made a moosesteak when you counted them?

WOW... :rolleyes: ...good one...
 
  • #37
ya know, when I was typing that one I wasn't sure what sort of response it would get. its tough judging whether it's so bad that it's good or so bad that it's really bad.
 
  • #38
hehe... i laughed... but only a wee little bit... you need new material
 
  • #39
I think Artman comes between Tribdog and me.

new material? you've heard that one before? I thought I made it up on the spot. I damn near broke my finger after I read Danger's post, diving for the keyboard to be the first one to come up with it.

They were right when they warned me that it's not safe to feed you any kind of straight line. :approve:

Somebody get a garden hose, right now! :eek:

It took me 3 readings to realize the joke hidden in there. If Gale hadn't said she's laughed a bit, I wouldn't have even re-read it to realize the play on words. A month or so away and you've gotten rusty! :eek:

That's not a bad recovery rate. I was only gone for Friday (okay, and hung-over yesterday), and I'm having trouble getting back into it.

Okay now seriously, stop licking your wounds... In fact, I'm not so sure that was wounded. (Course, I'm not checking.) Hey that's not even yours!

tribdog said:

Thanks for clarifying that. (His beard itches and the Sasquatch thing is way overrated.)

Welcome back Tribdog. Missed ya.

Then again, if he could really lick that, we'd never get him to stop. :smile:

I just saw a license plate: ZUBY 4U But couldn't get a look at the driver. tribdog is back? Quick, hide your melons! Oh that's right, the melons have already been in safe keeping from Danger...

It couldn't have been a delivery truck, because nobody would order one of those. Maybe an ambulance with bars on the windows?

Did it have a dent in the rear driver's side forked log? Could have been my old partner in crime, Shooby Zoo.
