Those people who run with the bulls deserve what they get.

Brilliant bit of insanity there, lisarea. :bow:

lisarea · #**228** 09-29-2006, 05:21 PM

What are you talking about insanity, boy?

Anyways, now I have another problem! Poor me!

My problem is called: FORTY POUNDS OF CINNAMON IMPERIALS!

They were selling discontinued stuff off at the grocery store where he works, so LM got them for $1. Which is an excellent bargain for someone who knows what to do with FORTY POUNDS OF CINNAMON IMPERIALS.

Seriously, like what the hell do we do with these things once we're done laughing at them?

I had to Google them to find out what you meant; we call them "Red Hots" where I come from. I suggest that you eat them.

Oh. I thought Red Hots were squishier.

But I don't even like candy very much, and forty pounds is, like, how much a little kid or a medium sized dog would weigh. Like, sometimes if there are going to be a lot of people over for Thanksgiving, you get a 25 pound turkey, and everyone eats way too much, and then you still have a whole bunch left. This is 15 more pounds than that!

He also got a one giant bag of yogurt covered pretzels and two giant bags of raspberry gummy candy.

We are all going to have really bad stomachaches for a really long time.

I recently ate a 5 lb bag of Jolly Ranchers in a matter of weeks, and they're way bigger and harder than Red Hots. I think I could do 40 lbs. of Red Hots in a month, if I wasn't seriously considering starting to think about maybe trying to lose some of the weight I've put on in the last couple of months.

Holiday decorating? Glue them sumbitches on everything in stripes to make everything look like a candy cane.

I've got a ladybug crawling around on my keyboard cable like a little red monorail.

I had this totally excellent idea a while ago that I just remembered!

Make some kind of Ubuntu theme/featureset combo to mimic Microsoft Bob, submit it to digg, it gets on the front page, and $$$PROFIT$$$

It should just be a small matter of programming. I vote Corona688 has to do it.

lisarea · #**235** 10-04-2006, 01:46 AM

I have an important announcement to make.

As I'm sure most of you are aware, my personal theme song for some time has been that one song that goes like, "Here I am! Rock you like a hurricane!" plus some other words, probably, that I don't know.

After a great deal of careful thought and consideration, I have decided that the time has come to refocus my energies, reevaluate my goals, and evolve my personal marketspace in order to keep up with the dynamic Web 2.0 landscape.

In line with these changing goals, I have made the decision to change my theme song to better reflect my changing ideologies, forward-thinking goals, and rapidly diversifying target audiences.

As such, I ask that you make any necessary modifications to ensure that the correct theme song plays when you read one of my posts, and I think it should go without saying that there are swears, so you know, I guess don't click on that if you are at work and/or if you are around a bunch of babies that don't know very many swears yet.

viscousmemories · #**236** 10-04-2006, 02:02 AM

That's brilliant.

Dingfod · #**237** 10-04-2006, 02:05 AM

Is it f--- the d--- or d--- the f---?

Man alive, I wish I had something other than random thoughts.

lisarea · #**238** 10-04-2006, 02:19 AM

It's f--- the s--- AND s--- the f---.

Those are swears.

I know a lot of them, you know.

This is clearly better-suited to Chatter's awe-inspiring OO prowess.

AHH! I didn't even read that thread because it looked like it was probably boring.

So I am going to change my vote and second the nomination.

If we can get a third, he's totally drafted.

quiet bear · #**241** 10-04-2006, 03:01 AM

Hhmmm. I just tried to go into the chat, and my pc froze up. Twice. That has never happened before. Weird.

OK someone tell me what song it is. I can't listen here at work...

You should quit that dumb job, then.

Anyways, it is:

You should still quit that job, though, so you can listen to it. It is better that way.

Cade's bio-grandparents are really, really interested and concerned with how we are going to handle the issue of Santa Claus. Seems a weird thing to be so overly focused on, to me. The kid isn't a year old, Santa ain't an issue at all.

Why does every commercial image of anyone using a computer make the person or people look like big dumb assholes?

Also:

Those Best Buy commercials where that doughy little dumbass is looking on his laptop to find new plasma TVs or whatever
Those tobacco company commercials where the fucktards scratch their chins while reading about shit like the health effects of smoking.

I just want to kick all their asses.

Sometimes the fucktards scratch their chins while reading about erectile dysfunction.

Y'all already know how much I hated the Levitra lady, but she's not around so much anymore. Now I hate that crazy guy who says "Sex has always been a very important part of our relationship", and looks so psychotic that you have to suspect the other half of the "our" equation is actually the half-dozen dead hookers he has stashed in the crawlspace.

Especially when the average computer user looks like this:

DINGFOD, HOW DID YOU GET THAT PICTURE OF ME? That looks like the expression of haughty condemnation I was making when I posted those last pictures! Plus that is totally the shirt I was wearing yesterday!

Oh, yeah, also:

Some work guys painted no parking lines under a guy's car so they could give him a ticket.

Ha ha! That rocks so much!

Tanda · #**250** 10-06-2006, 06:11 PM

We had a dyslexic vandal.

P.S. Lisarea, great digs!! :wink:
