I would EXCELSIOR, but I haven't got a ZING to LOL

This is more of a controversial ILM opinion, but I'm really sick of posters who think I want to read Christgau's opinion on literally anything. Post Christgau quotes in the Christgau thread. We don't need to hear it otherwise.

Budo proves Groucho’s First Axiom. The club ain’t having it either. C-

low-hanging fruit perhaps, but i loled

i still don't understand if i'm being told i shouldn't post here anymore, but it is clever i guess

I thought the C- was being awarded to Christgau in that exchange?

xp i didn't take it that way budo! posted it here just because it was a satisfyingly good imitation, but yes i agree with halfway that the intended meaning is that christgau ain't here, and we don't want him

The smug satisfaction of my first-ever excelsior shout-out tarnished by the spectre of budo taking offence — none meant! I was posting in character for lulz only. Don’t go changin’

yeah I just took it as a hilarious riff on Christgau's style. I'm a budo fan!

haha, ok! i see now how Lavator's interpretation makes sense

happy to assist here, hd

I felt bad for Christgau, though

Good post budo

I Killed Christgau with My Big Flag Post

hahaha

lol

Solid #1.

"pissin a shit" as they say in the uk

omg mattkkkk made me spit out my drink

tiny payback for your comedic riches Neando

Just because:

"Daddy's gone mad, hasn't he?" Dudley asked Aunt Petunia dully
"I'll be in my room, making no noise and pretending I'm not there," said Harry dully.
"How many monsters d'you think this place can hold?" Ron asked dully.
Dully, Harry turned it over
"Madam Pomfrey fixed him best she could," said Hagrid dully
“Balderdash,” said Harry dully.
“Great,” said Harry dully
Well, it might be easier to get past a dragon if he were a ferret, Harry thought dully
“Quidditch,” he said dully
“Fairy lights” he said dully
“I asked her to go with me just now,” Harry said dully
“Dunno,” Harry said dully
“No,” said Sirius dully
“I’ve told you,” Harry repeated dully
They bowed clumsily, muttering dully
And all the while, his scar burned dully
There you go, Sirius, Harry though dully
“Fine” said Harry dully
Some of them had broken windows, glimmering dully
Harry wondered dully
“Well I tried,” she said dully
“Well,” said Angelina dully
“Yeah, I suppose you’d better,” said Harry dully.
They glimmered dully
An ornate letter S, inlaid with many small green stones, glinted dully

(All but the last are from the first five books, maybe one bit of editing advice finally got through)

Not dullitch?

Dullbulbore

in another world, Tom Swifties would be known, confusingly, as Tom Dullys

Dull Kierlea

seeing some clips from this and it looks like Chappelle is straight up a Jeff Dunham-level comedian now. obviously there's no one like this here but do those who actually love the anti-trans shit actually think this shit is funny? it's like the same variations of the One Joke that boomers have been making for decades now

If I boot this up and see no puppets, I'm going to be very disappointed in you, frogs.
