See? What did I tell you?
Now leave me be. I have the Sphinx I’m building out of oatmeal to worry about. Seems I may have added too much friggin’ water again, and the only brown sugar I have in the house is harder than Ted Haggard at a kielbasa expo.
Which, pardon me, Jesus—but it’s true.

What he said.
So that’s the way it is.
Ah ha!
Who are you people and how did you get in my hotel room?
Do you even remember tasing the guacamole last night, McGehee? You said it “seemed like the thing to do.” I’m thinking it was the punch.

I find it’s easier to build the oatmeal sphinx after you’ve eaten the oatmeal.
Consult your physician, of course.
It was just a massage, Dan.
Who is Ted Haggard, and why is he hard?
You just need the right attachment for your Fun Factory.
Better a Sphinx of oatmeal than Devil’s Tower out of mashed potato.
Hey, that’s no 747?!!
Nice quote happyfeet.
And I agree – we shouldn’t ever study the Other, we should only study that which we belong to, oursleves essentially. It’s just too much work too fraught with the danger of mistake for us to study the Other. Too presumptuous; no we should never study the Other because we can never understand the Other; and when faced with otherness we should not reach out with understanding and empathy – for that would merely be imparting our own value system and understandings of our selfs on a distinct Other.
No, when confronted with this Other we should remain true an authentic and do as we have always done and instinctivelly lash out in blind, mindless, terror and destroy the Other in a welter of blood and viscera.
(BTW, I’m goofing around with the quote and the late pretentious twittishness that was Edward Said.)
Is that a euphamism? “Boy, ol’ McGehee sure ‘tased the guacamole’ last night. Check the out the pictures on my cell phone…”
Of course, if you meant to type “TASTED” then, as Emily Litella used to say… “Nevermind.”
Not a euphemism (though it might make a good one), and not a typo.
The president that I voted for twice just totally sold us out-again.
Hey, did you know that “Kids” flew two planes into the WTC towers? W said so.
If the bus came past here I throw myself under it.
Preferrably something that won’t irritate the butt cheeks too awfully bad.
For us ex-programmers, self-referential is called “recursive”, so lets see some curse words in here!
I was wondering why that damn thing smells of avocado.
At least, I hope that’s avocado.

Do you suppose if I shrink-wrap the box the store will take it back for a refund?
Robin–
I am so, so disappointed in you.
I’m sorry I let you down, Dan. I’m so ashamed of that pun. My family and friends will probably have an intervention soon.
What!? You mean I’ve got to stop making shit up about sex in Samoa?!
I had sex in Samoa once. And boy are my arms tired!
