Friday Threads

Only in comparison with Stallion, surely.

Pep (Yeah, don't call me surely)

It's called "building up a tolerance".

Oh.. I have no alts- nope- none whatsoever...
Truth is I have so many I have a list- but none are secret- they pop in and out and post every time there is an alt parade

Ooh! Parade? Anyone got a scripted twirly baton? =^-^=

Yes- it's used to beat the alts back into the darkness from whence they came...

good thinking.

I'll answer these and save everyone a TON of time next year...

wk1. Would you rather have a bionic arm or a bionic leg? Leg. Gives me lots better gas mileage for commuting.

wk2. Do people in Australia call the rest of the world "up over"? No.

wk3 Does killing time damage eternity? Only in finite areas. Being infinite, eternity as a whole is not harmed.

wk4 Are part-time bandleaders semiconductors? Yes. And sex change siblings are trans sisters.

wk5 Have you ever seen a toad on a toadstool? No. They excrete them, not sit on them.

wk6 How many weeks are there in a light year? Only 50. You don't get a vacation in light years.

wk8. If blind people wear dark glasses, why don't deaf people wear earmuffs? Eh? What was that?

wk9. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented? (not racist, i checked Not if he is firmly Angkor'd, Wat?

wk11 How long would it take a coconut to float from the Caribbean to Scotland? So long that when it gets there, it's haggis.

wk14 Where's Waldo? In the volcano with Lynnette and Mumfuzz.

wk15 If a tree falls in the forest, and nobody but a mime is around to hear it, and it lands on the mimes head, does anybody care? If I had a mime for every time I've heard this one...

wk16 Can fat people go skinny-dipping? Yes. The term was originally supposed to be "skinnie-dipping", referring to dipping your unprotected skin in water. But men (sigh) corrupted the spelling.

wk17 Could crop-circles be the work of a cereal killer? *grins ryely and shakes her head*

wk18 Do clowns wear really big socks? Yes. They're especially useful at Christmas.

wk19 Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery? No, because it's done solo.

wk20 Do vampires get AIDS? Yes, always. But they can't die from it.

wk21 Do you realize how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them? Don't do it! If we took the dirt out of all the holes, the planet would be declared void.

wk22 Does an analyst have to be anal? Absolutely. I'm a fatalist, and I'm coming to YOUR house tonight. Do the math.

wk23 Would you rather be a penguin who's a bird but can't fly or a flying fish that's a fish that can fly a bit? Flying fish. I HATE having cold feet.

It's a riddle, you're supposed to guess that "Humpty Dumpty", an old term for a short, clumsy person, actually refers to an egg. There are several other meanings attributed to the nursery rhyme; see the Wikipedia entry for it.

wk44 Who opened that first 'oyster' and said "My, my, my. Now doesn't 'this' look yummy!" We learned about them from watching otters. "If THEY can do it, *I* can do it."

wk45 Whose cruel idea was it for the word 'lisp' to have an 's' in it? See Week 12 or 13.

wk46 Why are hemorrhoids called "hemorrhoids" instead of "asteroids"? Because it would be too humiliating for humanity's demise to be caused by a giant hemorrhoid strike.

Lindy - you are now the singularly most brilliant poster in Teh forums- until the next master stroke of genius happens by.. I'm fickle that way

Speaking of which, I'm kind of missing the "Felon Hall" posts.

And my vote for a Friday thread, which may not actually be a Friday thread but a recurring thread that should be:

"Where are all the men in SL" and its variant "Where can I go to meet men."

GALAPAGOS PENGUINS

There always *is* a word in the dictionary that is misspelled!

Pep (It's misspelled)

PS Some weekend homework for you all . . .

http://www.yourdictionary.com/library/misspelled.html

Let's pretend this thread is about alts, because they're more fun to talk about.

Let me publicly apologize for not recognizing people when I see them as their "well-known" alts. I'm terrible with names, and in that regard, SL really is a nightmare for me! So, yes, I forget all you shadowy clones as soon as I learn about you.

Way back when we had the ALT party (remember that?) I actually began keeping a list of them. I just dug it up and it's a real trip down memory lane ... many peeps I don't run into anymore at all. Is Joseph Abel still around?

"Screw Darwin", I saw you once at the hangout, come out come out wherever you are and tell me who you really are! For some reason "Screw Darwin" is my favorite alt name (though "Horrible Noyes also makes me giggle), even though I could not be a bigger evolution fan.

What's your favorite alt name?
.

There we go with that alt-abuse again.

Mine! =^-^=

You know...I think Lin is the only woman I'd ever give up men for.


Honey (Good thing she's taken!)

oooh, Dolcett. Somebody needs to tell the people in Stepford and Dolcett County about this one, they'll eat it up.

There is absolutely NO GOOD REASON to give up men- but you can diversify.

You haven't been in a welcome area, have you? (O.o)

Those are not men - those are dicks.....


and not even good ones

On the contrary - one or two have mistakenly wandered on in there. It is up to the distaff side to lead them out into the light (OK, not too much light- it's their barbarian side just barely contain that I personally find so appealing.)

According to Professor Donald Sadoway (MIT) the name is derived from the atomic mass of Lithium, 7, which was originally one of the key ingredients of the drink.

how many pages long is it?

Well known Trolls cant start Friday threads.

Just as well I am not and I didn't then, isn't it!

Pep (Paradoxically)
