Jesse, sometimes with you I feel like I'm on an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm, except not funny at all, where every rule of etiquette or code of behavior that I unwittingly defy makes you apoplectic.

I don't know what Kevin's problem is.

jaymc, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

I went home and ate TJ's hot dogs and guacamole chips. Neither were very good.

OKAY GUYS, STOP FIGHTING AND HELP ME OUT WITH THIS:

While driving through Waunakee, WI on the way back from a gig on Saturday, I saw a sign in front of US Bank that read the following:

"OSAMA SAYS, WALK LIKE AN EGYPTIAN"

WTF does it mean??!

Jordan, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:29 (seventeen years ago) link

That's deep, man.

Really makes you think, eh?

dan m, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Fine then, screw you too.

jaymc, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:32 (seventeen years ago) link

What? I was talking about the sign.

Wisconsin is chock full of such roadside riddles.

John, sometimes I wonder if you ever listen to yourself, because for a person who I wd normally expect to be very cognizant of sub-text & implication, you've got a genius for making giant assumptions implicit in what you write and then basing your logic on said assumptions. That's what people are reacting to.

Our little online society, it's crumbling!

Jesse, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Quick, everybody! Turn your face into a heart!

Can you give me an example?

dan m, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Son of a bitch. You're right. It's not even Hump Day. As if that means anything to a waiter. Today is actually kind of my Saturday.

Jesse, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Still, I can't believe I thought it was Wednesday!!

Jesse, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:42 (seventeen years ago) link

I can't stop laughing at apprehensivehearthead.gif

It's kind of nodding along to the ODB track I'm listening to.

sorry sarah, i was off two blocks in my belmont estimate.

This seemed a little sarcastic to me. I wasn't positive it was sarcastic, but just in case, I figured I should explain myself so Kevin didn't think I was being needlessly pedantic, as a way of apology. Then he countered with...

thank you for your thorough explanative posts john, as always, a treat.

...which *definitely* seemed sarcastic. I'm not sure what I did wrong here.

jaymc, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:45 (seventeen years ago) link

OK case in point.

jaymc, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:45 (seventeen years ago) link

Aw! That's adorable despite the copulation.

ENRIQUE: I HAVE A SMALL PENIS

Spanish singer ENRIQUE IGLESIAS has dismantled his hunky image - he's confessed to having a small penis.

The HERO star - boyfriend of gorgeous Russian tennis player ANNA KOURNIKOVA - made the shocking admission when asked whether he would ever pose naked on one of his album covers.

He candidly answered, "Maybe I have not got the biggest penis in the world. Maybe if you had the biggest penis in the world, you would sell records.

"But I don't. I could actually have the smallest penis in the world out there."

Laurel: I backtracked your headshot pic, and I must say that plate of penguin hors d'oeurve is adorable.

dan m, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't care. He's still A-dorable.

Jesse, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Uh... (weird) xpost!

Jesse, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Hah. One of my aunts made them for Christmas dinner. Unfortunately they didn't taste as good as they looked, but I think quality Kalamata olives and some different choices of cheese spread might fix that.

Laurel, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:48 (seventeen years ago) link

So this has been all over the internets, but in case you guys missed it, it's funny:

dan m, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Is this where the expression "it's all that ... and a bag of chips" came from? Or is Homegirls merely referencing it? I think I first became aware of the catchphrase somewhere around 1995.

jaymc, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Sorry, was that too "informative"?

jaymc, Monday, 5 March 2007 21:59 (seventeen years ago) link

It's no Rap Snacks.

Jordan, Monday, 5 March 2007 22:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait, is that REAL??

Laurel, Monday, 5 March 2007 22:02 (seventeen years ago) link

li'l johnnie thinskin.

chicago kevin, Monday, 5 March 2007 22:02 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm hungry for Homegirl chips now. :-(

KitCat, Monday, 5 March 2007 22:03 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't know how real it is. It made Reddit, I think. At least that's where the dude I got the link from said it was. If it's on there it'll be on 99% of blogs before long.
