<Redacted for when I REALLY need it.>Wait a second... Did you just read through old FAWTL threads to find that two year old post?
Just because somebody did it before, doesn't mean it's okay. We all slip up from time to time, which is understandable, but the general guideline is a good one.
(And this is from one Perry-hater to another. It's best taken elsewhere, because no good will come of dragging a political argument into this thread.)
I didn't read all of them. But I've been browsing them lately to understand what people are talking about, and a quick search revealed that post. It IS likely I will save that s&@# for future flinging.
I was under the impression that Perry-hate was okay in this thread. ("Even Texans don't like Perry.") (And I don't hate Perry. I try not to hate anyone. I've narrowed it down to three people.) I'll see if I can find that post, though I could be wrong.
Apologies for breaking the rules. Joke aliases were not forbidden in my re-initiation.
<snip> When Wolfthulu posted, I at first thought he was talking about green stuff as in pot, then realised he was talking about the alias. I was delighted to try out a new technique of hypocrisy revelation. I admit that it's a%@~&&$ry, but at the time I wasn't thinking of the feelings of others. I hereby delete my arsenal. Now I will have to use the search button for future actions.
Hmm... Joe Biden. Prick Perry.
I detect a subtle difference in these two aliases. Not to say Joe Biden is OK here but, if used carefully, I can see it not being a problem. Yours breaks the rule by it's very existence.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I seem to have broken my own rule about not wasting time with your posts.
Welcome to the thread Lunalynx.
In other news, my middle son is successfully installed in his dorm room at the University of Minnesota - Morris. Now we are back on the road for our 21 hour drive back to Texas.
Cool!
Yet, ugh, for that long drive home. Good luck and godspeed.
He's dead.
heh heh
He's dead.Dammit! I haven't seen the movie yet, you just RUINED it for me!!! :(
He's been dead for thousands of years. You knew that.
Liking the Conan love, I take it it was good?
Excellent. I made a few no spoiling spoilered remarks in the "Conan the Barbarian" thread. I didn't really like the 3D (it was not shot in 3D, it was a computer job). I'm going to go back and do the 2D in Vancouver... also because the Philippine version I saw has a lot of sloppy censor cutting.
Conan O'Brien is dead? And it was a movie?He's dead.Dammit! I haven't seen the movie yet, you just RUINED it for me!!! :(
He's still alive.
He just has no soul.

Aberzombie, you are mean. You didn't invite me to your "Brain Souffle" party. I'm still upset about that, so upset I'm going to link to your first known post.Wait, AZ is your friend who told you to come here?
He's no good.
Worse, Ashe Ravenheart or Droz to those of us who know him outside.
When he's allowed out that is.I, like AZ, just happen to live on the East Coast.
But Garky-poo is right. I ain't no good. I'm a curmudgeonly old, thread pooper who also, or so the stories go, like to kindap baby penguins, train them to be assassins, then unleash them on an unsuspecting world.
On the other hand, he's Gark.
Otherwise, welcome.
Also - just off the East Coast eh? And, according to your profile, you're in PA. Philly, or no?
Memories
Light the corners of my mindMisty water-color memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
(Yesterday) for the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me how many of you would live your lives again
I would too
You girls?
Memories
May be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
And so it's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remembe
The way we were
The way we were

7 hours more til I leave. Peace dudes. Next time I post I'll be in Canada.
Aw-ooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Hello, Lunalynx. Can you do the Stanky Legg?
I wish it would rain. I prayed for rain for two hours today.
I hate the heat in Texas.
You need to build an altar in your yard and start sacrificing animals at noon. When people complain call it a "barbeque area".
Start doing your rain dance now. We in FL would be happy to send Irene your way. Darn butterflies flapping their wings off the coast of Africa!

Or you can send them Harvey. I am sure Mexico would not mind.
I saw Conan.
WOOT!! How was it?
Never mind!

AWRIGHT!!! PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!
Just another morning watching Japanese news. This is the first day since Saturday that I have not had to sober up upon awakening.
Just another morning watching Japanese news. This is the first day since Saturday that I have not had to sober up upon awakening.Being sober when awake is generally a good thing. Japanese news? Any reason why? And from where?
As almost everyone knows, I love Japan and Japanese stuff. I want to go there one day, as I missed the JET boat back when I was young and had verve. I enjoy Japanese news and Japanese shows in addition to anime/otaku subculture because it reminds me that they are people too. Not that I think the average Japanese person is a giant robot piloting superhero or eternally kneesocks clad schoolgirl(although I can dream), but I work in mental health- I enjoy finding out more about peoples and societies and such. I do enjoy japanese society as well, it is charmingly rigid with very little chance for upward social mobility, with a lot of social problems that need facing, and their method of discussing and solving such problems eternally interest me.
I'm watching FCI Morning Eye, who has a big(by Japanese standards) office and station here in manhattan. I came THIS CLOSE to being on Japanese news during the Halloween Parade last year.

Observations after far too long doing "stanky" leg research on youtube:
.
.
.
.
- A good dancer can make any dance look good.
- A bad dancer can make any dance look bad.
- I am a bad dancer.
- Most people dancing on youtube are bad dancers.
- Most people who post to youtube have a poor idea of what the public wants to see.
- Youtube is the modern equivalent of standing behind the on-the-spot news reporter and waving like a lunatic.
- I don't know what 'stanky leg' means.
- I'm afraid to find out.
- The BBCode "list" does not format well around avatar pics.

Re: Too many rules in this thread
There have always been two standing rules in this thread: no politics and no religion. Thanks in part to Sebastian, we had to implement the "don't bring the crazies home with you" rule. These rules were implemented so we could have an oasis of sorts from the howling desert of negativity in the rest of OTD (not the only one, I realize, and I am engaging in some hyperbole. Some).
If you want to create Prick Perry, Buwhack Obama (I'd suggest refraining from Buttwhack Obama on principle), Sarah Bailin', Joe Bidumb, or Michelle Crackman (or Backhoe, but those also might be in poor taste), have fun...in another thread. If you want to be Eric Cartman and have all those aliases tell you how super cool you are, bust a nut...in another thread.
And, really, if you want to go to the trouble of finding a post I made which "proves" my hypocrisy, I guess that makes you super cool, Eric.

So the shark teeth didn't look hokey? I hoped for dark, but that much violence??? ^_^ I can't wait!!!Fright Night is a deliciously evil movie. And the R rating is for VERY strong language and lots and lots and lots of violence done on people and vampires.
Oh, and Chris Sarandon's cameo is a nice touch.
YIKES! I've been made! Cheese it!
The shark teeth did NOT look hokey, and they were only in a few scenes. Most of the time, they were showing the "normal" vamp teeth.
YIKES! I've been made! Cheese it!

1 week til the big move and still stressed out.Deep breaths.
Take a walk around your current place and say goodbye to it, it helps a lot.
In the neighborhood, drive around the city, get a bite to eat at that 'hot dog' stand you always told yourself you would try but never got around to; usually for good reason.

I have heard that this works well. No clue, but that is the rumor.

Ummm.... let me rephrase it, if I said his dissertation would that make more sense?At his defense?? OK maybe I do not want to know.Jeremy, you know what relieves stress right?? Don't make me Urizen/LPM you.Can't Alex is at his defense right now. :P
Why yes. It might make it seem more of a scholarly development and less of a legal proceeding.

Found
A dead, nearly 7-ft long (2.1 m) blue shark, in the woods of Milton, N.H.; the nearest body of salt water is about an hour's drive away.

Yeah they call it a defense here for some reason. But it's the same thing, your final research presentation followed by a grilling question period by your supervisory committee, at the conclusion of which you receive a PHD.
Edit: It would actually be your examination committee not a supervisory committee 2 different bodies. Sorry for the mix up :P

I can understand it being called a defense.
Donated
By the Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library, 150 copies of the author's World War II novel Slaughterhouse-Five, to students at Republic High School in Republic, Mo., after the local school board banned the book.
i do so love banned books.

Welcome Lunalynx.
How was everyone's weekend?
I saw Conan as well... Disappointed.
6 days till the Wedding. Lots of rum to be consumed and good food.
At work but can only think of all the packing and preparing to get ready for the wedding that needs to be done. We drive down to Mattaposiett tonight. Still not sure who is taking care of the cats while we are away. Arghh so much too do.
Is it bad that it is not yet 11 AM and I need a drink.
