CDC is at Cassis tonight.
Great! rolls eyes
Good deals on bad drinks from that surly little bastard who thinks he’s some kind of bartending god? I can’t wait. Maybe they’ll have someone else back there too…
does this tuff-times thing, for cost-cutting, mean a return to house-parties, cocktails parties, salons, and drinking in the foetal-position in the hall-closet with Jeff Buckley’s HALLELUJAH (spelling, sh*t) cover playing at top-volume??
Does this crisis mean THE FLIRTRESSES will have to wear
shorter skirts and lower-cut blouses and more backless dresses
and fewer foundation garments to save on fabric?
@15: I wag my private parts in your general direction. I spit on you and your Cassis and your drinking club and your C-ville’s best bartender. Ptttteu.
So, what exactly is an echo? The drink, I mean. The poster, I’m assuming, is a person.
@29 Lying under a chair? In no way an expert or known for musical taste, but I like Dexter Gordon. Despite being a cornet player for seven years, always fascinated by the sound of the tenor sax. Swear it had nothing to do with having a crush on the single tenor sax player in high school band…
‘gay’ is an offensive epithet apparently used in that way. we determined this through the cavalier daily opinions column in discussing the Not-Gay chant at UVA football games, where it was banned from counter-statement in the UVA song.
#37
Offensive to milk products and to Dairy Farmers in Wisconsin and the People’s Republic of France.
The other from “You Suck” offensive to ‘queers’ and i read somewhere here ‘kneepadders’.
I dunno, to play the devil’s advocate and not to get into a big thing here, I think calling something “gay” or “retarded” in a derogatory manner is a little bit offensive. I don’t want to argue it, and PP, you know I don’t find you offensive; I think your candor is refreshing. But, I can certainly sympathize with people taking exception to the words in that connotation. Especially homosexuals with Trisomy 21.
@42 I would say “wack,” as in “Flavored vodka is wack,” but then you and I might get into another kerfluffle about the White appropriation of race-based cultural ideologies and vernacular, which would once again serve as hitting the Escape key and/or “Reset” button on the entire Cvillain pseudonym structure, as well as someone buying a McQuit off the dollar menu, so I won’t.
Queer is the term preferred by academics and gay is derogatory when used by a non-gay. Rappers can say that word but you’d better not. This blog doesn’t worry about offending people in race, intellect, orientation, disability or other things. Rarely does anyone object. I don’t want to cramp anyone’s style because I don’t belong here. That’s clear. I heard this blog is funny. I should read it and not write, and keep my personal offense to myself as writers here offer their personal offensiveness to everyone else.
I see. I’m not that clever and did not see the interview. That’s like Oliver North saying “Let me refresh myself from my notes” whenever anyone asked him a direct question about illegal shit he did? OK !
And I thought you all had figured out that I was really Sarah Palin. Oh well. I guess I’m going to go read all the newspapers. All of them. Every last one.
Just had lunch (and beer) post kickball at Boylan Heights. The food was good, not great, but the prices were enough to make me only go there when I’m not hungry. This isn’t a slam on Chad or his picking the place for the post kickball hang out. But the two for one wings special came out to $7 for 10 wings. I can’t imagine paying $7 for only 5 wings. Who pays more than $1 per wing? The burgers are $7.50 without anything else (fries, slaw, etc. Adding regular fries and a soft drink bumps it up by $4) and the wedge salad (quarter of a head of iceberg lettuce and a few toppings) for $6?
THAT’S why the fucking Antarctic is rapidly disappearing… nothing to do with global warming… it’s bogus restaurant owners chipping away at the icepack to create a trendy, yet curiously unsatisfying novel dish.
What about the penguins,eh? Where are they going to go and freeze their bollocks off when it’s all gone?Well?
@72 Ha! That made me laugh! Actually, it was more hearing the word Rio as it constantly sparks the song in my head. Wonder if they’re dancing in the sand, too….
@73 – yep, me, too. I might have to put on another song just to get that out of my head. If they’re relocating to Rio – am pretty sure they are dancing in the sand. Just wondering what style penguins dance to, and if they’re ripe for some sort of reality show dance off competition. Would they be willing to go up against, say, chickens?
/dang, now have the “chicken dance” song in my head – gaah!
Aww Kickball! I miss kickball. They don’t have that here…or baseball so no fields…just a lot of drinking…which is a kind of a sport in itself…but it’s just not the same.
BP, would’ve if my mind hadn’t shorted out (no pun intended) on remembering that Short Pump is near Richmond. I’m firmly entrenched in the Cville area, both work and home, so it wouldn’t make sense.
Sometimes, I’ll save my errands (groceries, neccessities, gas, etc.) for heading over the mountain to Waynesboro or Staunton, even. Gas is easily 30 cents cheaper at times, not to mention the cheaper groceries, etc.
I’d rather spend 30 minutes on the interstate (or 250) than 20-30 minutes in traffic here to head uptown.
I totally agree. If I hadn’t been doing the out-of-town-pre-homecoming-shopping-trip-because-charlottesville-ain’t got no friggin fashionably ok homecoming dresses for the nooby freshman high school student, ey, I would have never known, but was really happy to discover it, ya know? I’m with you, I live and work well inside the albemarle county limits, otherwise. Don’t see any reason to travel more than over to sam’s, and only if convenient, to save 12 cents or so off the prices on pantops.
ok, this is the ffa thread, where the heck are you people tonight – i know i passed out early last night, but i’ve had two days to rest up, are ya all snoozin early on, ya (sarah palin imitation, yo) wooses? Wake up and snark, already…
I feel like it’s 20 years ago, and it’s like I’m at Bethany Beach, Delaware, where they roll up the sidewalks at 9 and everyone goes home. Maybe it’s time I investigated some other late night blogging/commenting sites, cause I feel like i’m tossing balloons into the air and no one is there. I love ya’ll and I’ll be back, but going out there to see what’s what…
yeah, not so much a fan – have personal connections to dmb, won’t go into details, but totally dig tunes. Am now cueing into john mayer videos. sorry to be so un-indie. just digging really good music for a reason. really need to hit the hay. tuckered out as well. night, sc.
just as a last minute toss – check out Civil Twilight – south african band – have some really good tunes, but not getting enough press/pr. GREAT music – enjoy.
@90
know about Archive.org—they have a bazillion free live shows to download of just about every twang and jam-band and neo-oldtime stuff. Takes about a week to go through the list though.
This has been around for a while but it still makes me smile…
Following the problems in the sub-prime lending market in America and
the banking problems in the UK, uncertainty has now hit Japan.
In the last 7 days Origami Bank has folded, Sumo Bank has gone belly up
and Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches.
Yesterday, it was announced that Karaoke Bank is up for sale and will
likely go for a song while today shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended
after they nose-dived.
While Samurai Bank are soldiering on following sharp cutbacks, Ninja
Bank are reported to have taken a hit, but they remain in the black.
Furthermore, 500 staff at Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report
that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank where it is feared
that staff may get a raw deal.
I know, it’s ridiculous. IS it Columbus Day?
It’s not like people have any work to do on Monday.
I’d almost be grateful if HM and Please would come
back and call me a cocksucker
or something similarly wry and recherche again, just to keep the threads rolling.
I was surprised to find the new version of ABSENTE (the old version was pretty undrinkable) altogether not bad. Haven’t been able to afford the SWISS stuff at the ABC store yet, but if a few more Mall-bidness-people drop pennies in my bucket, i may be able to get some later this week and report back on the real stuff.
does anyone else ever play music on the Mall (see Hard Times Thread) for a little extra beer-money?
A buddy of mine used to make about 300 bucks every Friday night (but he was talented). I haven’t been able to break about 50 bucks, but i’m probably quieter and acoustic-er and talentless.
Anyone know if you have to get a permit to play these days (like a vendor permit or something?) like in other cities, or if it’s still same-old Cville where you can just hit people up for change any-ole-time you feel like it, performing or just annoying (or in my case both).
@Feeding Our Hungry Indigents
How is that campaign for edible-ornamental vegetation around the City going, anyhow?
There were nice herbs in the ovoid planters on the Mall for a while, but I haven’t seen any other initiatives followed-through. The planters around Miller’s look promising for those upside-down cherry-tomato dinguses. If we lobby REALLY HARD do you think City Council would let us start a Cranberry Bog in Central Place Fountain?
@Feeding our hungry indigents
Shame nobody else is out here… i think we could really run with this:
1. the new Great-Halsey-Hotel will be blocked-off with chainlink fence for two years’ construction–what about keeping a few thousand turkeys in there?
2. the Pavilion won’t be used until late Spring–we could get a decent herd of those miniaturized dairy cows to graze there.
3. the trees on the Mall are just BEGGING to be infested with edible koalas and sloths.
4. Gravity Lounge, closing soon, would be perfect for growing Shitakes.
5. many arctic expeditions survived on blubber and meat from weddell seals and penguins–The Ice Park?
6. If the City won’t go for a cranberry bog in the Central Place fountain, maybe we could tempt them with a few tasty manatees and platypuses?
/why are we doing nothing to feed the children in these terrible times?!?!?!
This may be my inherent small-town girl naivete, but do I have anything to worry about the taxi drivers in this town? Some asshole (which a lot of people do this to me) honked his horn while I was still checking my blind spots before pulling out into traffic. It was just enough, on top of everything else today, that I threw my hand out the window (that’s making me laugh) and gestured at him. Not a full-on gesture, but just a gesture of disgust. He saw me park on the side of the street where I’ll be parked the rest of the night.
I’m just so wary of people in this town. Plus, if anything would happen, it would happen to me. I’m the red-headed step child of Murphy’s Law. I just didn’t know if crazy things like that happen around here…
Vengence seeking taxi drivers and all that….
Oh, and after I gestured, he drove right up behind me while we were stuck in traffic and honked his horn again. I shook my head at him in my rearview mirror.
@103
i think most of the taxi-drivers are pretty good guys around here. i doubt he was doing more than ‘playing at asshole’, rather than actually being one… and seriously doubt he’d risk his license (taxis are so visible) with any sort of base reprisal for a harmless, though somewhat newyorkais, excange of horns and gestures?
good luck in any case.
@101–102
now if he’d had a nice satsfying city-provided dinner of edible koalas and cranberries, this never would have happened.
@105
food? you guys have food? where?
@106
i am still missing gender-identification here.
@CVILLAINS
GAWD you are a dull, hyperserious lot today!!!! What the hell?
Did you all eat Joe Biden Flakes for breakfast, or are all hungover from huffing sheep-dip at the Fall Fibre Festival? Seems like Pink is the only one with a jot or tittle of wit about her today. How I’ve sown my seed on infertile ground today, spent my snark and provocations on and for nothing!!!
/keeping fingers crossed that Flozy and Backup Planet ring-in late with some wacky funsterisms.
oooh, skidding in just in time – that’s as good a welcome as I am ever like to receive – I’ll take it!
@102 4. – Gravity Lounge is closing soon???? Where the heck have I been? Oh, year, behind the wheel of a frigging car all dang weekend…
Speaking of which, tonight I bopped on down Pantops to head up 20 N, only to find myself behind some troll who must have decided I was “following too closely” as they drove at least 3 miles below the speed limit – freakin’ 45mph, who the heck goes 45mpg other than in the tight turns – meanwhile, the even slower trogolodite I passed on 250 (legally, within the 45 mph speed limit, with plenty signal and plenty room – I’m bloomin’ paranoid about following distance) decided to ride my butt/bumper nearly all the way to Proffit with their brights on. Hadda turn all my rear view mirrors to the ground to keep from being blinded. This is no way to “share the road” people!!!
/did someone paint a target on my car when I wasn’t lookin???
//I’m just bereft

in the wild a panther would eat a otter but not its dung. But a Pink Panther would a genetic mutation so could not be in the wild. If held it captivity that panther might very well suffer from coprophagy.
@121
That was deliberately provoking of commentary by spellchecker and grammarian Stanley—good work Englebert.
again @121
but of course, panthers don’t swim. and otterdung sinks. so no matter the alleged copraphilia of panthers, pink or otherwise, i think both otter and his scat (’spraints’, i’ve been told) are safe from degustation. now, the detente of the “watering-hole” (a joke there, if anyone wants to run with it) could allow for other panther-otter activities, see pink-thong above.
@126, Family Life Education. The classes where afterwards you gleefully ran around the halls waving the color diagrams of no-no places around as if you just got banged by the party train and were proud of it.
@129, stop that, you guys should’ve never said she looked like a vagina, cause now I’m starting to wonder why I have like twentillion candles of her and three pictures on the wall if I’m not even Catholic OR Latino.
@133
you’d think then panthers would eat cuddly filling manatees instead of low-calorie otters.
were i to specify SEA-otter, there’d be nary a panther in sight. Otters will waddle humourously on land, but their webbed feet make it uncomfortable and imprudent. they rarely climb trees, where panthers snack on cuddly koalas and sloths no doubt by proximate convenince and preference. also, otter food-sources are all or mostly marine/aquatic?
Dear Dr Phil,
I’m having really violent thoughts involving Otter, e-DuctTape® and just a teeny tiny breathing hole that I can cover with my index finger. If I repress these urges, will it affect me in years to come,for example could it cause premature menopause or a really itchy flaky scalp?
Yours Most Sincerely,
Flooze
Floozy,
you must not bottle up these urges. It will only lead to a pressure release that will be misused on your loved ones. They are not the cause. ACT now, before it’s too late.
Repressing urges such as these has been known to lead to much worse symptoms, such as spontaneous combustion or finding sexual interest in cars. Contrary to popular belief, indulging in your violent actions will turn a benefit. Examples include an increased sense of well-being, a boost in popularity, unlimited access to vending machines, and strong, healthy nails. In some cases, you may also find you achieve enlightenment – that, or find a twenty on the ground. Same difference.

And Scoriole wins the drunken posting award, for the most outstanding example of what it is like to try and type wearing boxing gloves whilst shitfaced drunk at 3am. A whimsical selection of poetic angst,peppered with some truly magnificent typos all finished off with some contentious politics. Fantastic… a true classic.
Scoriole my girl, you are in a league of your own.LMAO.
@170 It’s concise and insightful. A beautiful stream of consciousness. Its cryptic simplicity reminds me of being called home one night in college by my roommate, only to find, delicately written on a torn half-sheet of paper towel, a note that says “THINGS ARE NOT GOOD!!! – Bxxxxxx”. After finding the apartment empty and dark, another slurred phone call that swears she’s in the apartment, I find her passed out in the driver’s seat of her car in front of the building…
Cheers, scoriole, you’ve made me laugh for the first time today.
/not at your expense, but at the absurdity of it all….
//by all, I mean not your post, but life.
@177: No, but I heard you do. Let’s include eveyone else in on the joke shall we? echo and I went to Ventana and we’re drinking (no way!) and I look over and he’s got one arm on the bar, palm facing up, and one hand between his spread legs. And his fingers are wiggling. I’m like, What are you doing? Playing the air bass? So if you see echo, play some air guitar for him.
Has anyone seen that sketch…don’t remember who the comic is, maybe Dane Cook or Dave Attell or Jim Gaffigan…and he’s talking about how to play air guitar. And to play air bass, you put one hand up and with the other you “strum your balls” and he walks around the stage going, “Strummin my balls, strumming my balls” and it looks EXACTLY like he’s playing bass.
Apologies to any real guitarists I just offended with this insipid anecdote.
@174 That’s quotidian for me, people not relating. I chalk it up to having spent most of my childhood and teenage years stuck in my own head and books.
Besides, as long as I can still relate to myself, that’s all I can ask for.
/Don’t worry, I’m in therapy for it all. I’m normal…but in strange ways.
I was out last night and some dude comes up to me and says, “You’re shenanigans, right?” and I faked innocence, wide-eyed for a moment but he insisted. Finally, I admitted, “Yeah, I was. But it became too much.” I told him how I became a whipping boy and constant target and that I got sick of it. He said, “That’s too bad, you were such a bad ass on there. You were the queen bee!”
Well, I never wanted to be the queen bee. But I am pretty badass. It would be nice to just be able to be myself without having people attack me just for the sake of it or harp on me for past mistakes. I don’t pick on lurkers and I’m not a bully, I don’t seek attention and I don’t try to dominate the site. I just love the site and what it does for discourse and community.
Simply put, something about the site rings my bell and I want to participate without being skewered by people who hold grudges or don’t get my humor.
The people out there, they like me. They tell me whenever I’m out. So hi again.
P.S. The Shazammyfans parody was fucking hilarious and I loved it. Kisses for you and your precise wit.
You know I am. Keep it up echo-bo-becho and I’ll shoot you with the soda gun next time you come to X. Don’t wear a white shirt, we don’t wanna see your huge brown nipples.

Oh they’ll post something. How else are people going to know what to do this weekend. If we don’t get a preview, I’m going to have to get drunk all weekend.
ok, villains, was going to post in order to get some needed advice. Can’t figure out how to do this, so this is my second best option – anyone out there ever dealt with “difficult” teenagers? I’m in a spot.
@220: I just meant that I was sort of a punk to my parents. Later, I straightened up and flew right , as my folks prescribed. My brother needed a bit of a hands-on approach; I needed to be left to do my thing. Each kid is a snowflake or something.
Um, Me and 2 oh 4 dressed as Vikings tonight at CLAW behind Blue Moon. She’ll be armwrestling and I’ll be waving around a bucket for you to stuff your money into.

/otterdung missed a lot of various adverts on cvillain clearly showing breastage on 2o4

/i think the bloody vikings invaded ireland at one point,
/and tried to make us eat fucking fermented herring.
They settled peacefully according to recent genetic studies of the isles, and that would be pickled herring, not fermented. No to questions one and two as well.
pickled or creamed, yes. fermented is what the vikings ate:
“Surströmming (“soured herring”) is a northern delicacy consisting of fermented Baltic herring .”
and:
“In 795 the first Vikings landed on the Irish shores attacking the Irish monastery in Rathlin Island located near County Antrim. Attacks on Ireland remained very few over the next 30 – 40 years with attacks taking place approximately once a year. It is known the Irish resisted these attacks and in 811 the Ulaidh slaughtered the Vikings attempting to raid Ulster.”
i couldn’t find confirmation of pudgy vikings in horned helmets force-feeding herring to peaceful irish monks.
then again the french created blood-sausage and seek ‘fecal aromas’ in their best cheeses. and they made Amelie, which creates a worse taste in my mouth than either.
Vikings are cool. 13th Warrior is one of the best films ever made. And seeing it in a theater is like watching a girls-gone-wild video, since all the chicks are hooting at the hot vikings with their shaggy-long haircuts like HM.
Star fukkers. The VQR has become one of the most popular & awarded lit rags in the USA. The reason? Because now it is topical and slick. Cville’s attention could also be due to Waldo J. working at VQR. I remember when 20s Lawyer Dude was mentioned in almost every issue of Cville, ten years agog’. Hell it had a Dave Matthews Band column! (or was that the Hook?) Natalie Fairfax’s summer stint as a cartoonist was surprisingly interesting, on the other hand.
@251
that makes sense. i haven’t seen the mag in years and years—since it was basically people writing free verse about their cats—but had noticed all the jock-sniffing Cville (and not Hook–which made me wonder, doubly) was doing of it this last year or so. Didn’t know they’d snagged Waldo–good for him.
@254
caroline, you might have SAID something to me about 2o4’s perky yet ample bosoms.
i was kept completely in the dark about this matter, and diverted from it… ummmm… variously.
Truly, I appreciate your concern, but new rules of reengagement dictate that I post no personal shit on this blog ever again… lest it be used against me. Strictly smarm, ancient history, one liners and stupidity. Strictly.
Besides, otter would just mock me again. He owns these boards now. Me? Afterthought.
thank you, byo – didn’t know quite how to respond to all the ugly responses here over the last 24 hours. Completely understand what you mean. OD actually seems to be the one who owns the boards. Do appreciate his input. Would love to meet him in person – ya hear me, OD? SO doesn’t pay to open up, right? Lesson learned.
/Knuckles wrapped and neosporin applied. Still wondering what I did to incite… Maybe dumb late night ramblings all alone in the “room”… didn’t get full rule list…
Owns the boards. Seriously, WTF does that even mean. If I post here 1 million times in inane banter and talk to myself do I get to own the boards because I would so win. I want a teeny tiny sock puppet as a prize. Invisible of course.

BYo—are you insane? I have only lavished affection upon you. Recollect that i even offered to come bang nails and sling paint on your renovation, and to split my bottle of hard-won Maker’s Mark with you in your hours of darkness (from which i, too, ceaselessly and god-hated suffer).
@216, @262
as to owning the boards—don’t be daft, you two.
i am a mere fly here, a gnat, a flea. every aggressive or substantive post i make (always with the idea of gently swaying the community, or improving it, though my tools are blunt [my tool is not] and my swinging of them occasionally hits sensitive toes-es) i get six folks trodding mercilessly on the CODE against me, sending me scuttling like ragged claws back to nice-nice and quietude, submission, docility.
@262
Oh, BP—of course would be delighted to meet you in person. You know me probably already—everyone seems to know me in person already… and dislike me already… everyone seems to dislike me in person already. that said, happy to share the meat-world with you at your pleasure/leisure.
Anyone else get free Elton John tickets in the mail? Yep. Entered some contest apparently and “didn’t win the grand prize” but Music Today sent me 2 tickets in the last row possible. I should be saying…does anyone want two free tickets in the last row possible? I would make it through Goodbye Norma Jean for 3 seconds. Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Saturday Nights all right for fighting my urge to not go to this concert. He should have stayed on the farm and listened to his old man.
Shit. Now I have the Lion King soundtrack running around in my head.
wow, first new comment of the turn of the clock to the new day. I’m honored, without witnesses.
If there is anyone out there in the vast wilderness of our lovely full moonlit evening willing to share the moonlight, I’m willing. If not, I shall tuck in your covers and leave quietly, no blathering left behind.
and I fail, and bow down, to OD’s copious commenting on another post before I could get there. Didn’t know you were thinking FAR, FAR more completely than I. Good one, otter.
@271
Talieisin (christ, i haven’t typed that name since grad-school), are you sure it isn’t some sort of pyramid-marketing scheme scam–MusicToday seems pretty shady. Isn’t SIR Elton John already dead or gay or British or something? It seems wildly implausible that he’d be playing Cville–we have shit like WWF and Monster Trucks and Bruce Springsteen here.
@272
I bear glad witness, but am signing off–sorry, BP. I’ll walk out and stare at the moon for you first, though–for at least a long meditative cocktail and cigarette. Goodnight, honeybunch.
@273
thank you, of course, buti’ll get shit for it tomorrow, obviously, for its length and tone and whatever else. i rather suspect the only people left to be amused by such tirades are our new pals and posters from Fairfax (FallsChurch, whatevuh).
274….architect or Druid? I’m guessing Coran Capshaw is running a Nigerian scheme. My mom is embroiled w/ one at the moment w/ some guy named “Victor” who wants to buy her 200 dollar waterbed but he has to get his public relations expert to send her the check first. I don’t know WTF w/ it, but I’m guessing a) this Elton character is involved b) clearly a Brit and Gay c) when did we let that type in here. I’m going to picket. I don’t know where or why but we don’t do enough picketing anymore.
I’ll let the pseudo waxing at the moon commence. I have to go back and read some more Browning.
@276 – have ya seen the friggin moon tonight? are you that jaded that you can’t take some reflective moment to revell? I know you’re just baiting, but “that type”? really? I’ve swallowed my foot by accident a couple of times on this blog, but I don’t think I’ve ever reached your “bar”. Yes, Tal, read more Browning…and then read some more.
@ 270 if that’s what i think it is, where the guy supposedly dies afterwards, then that’s got to be the stupidest idea anyone’s had in a long time. i’ve seen horses breed, and the potential for injury to horses and handlers alike is not small. (i’m not even talking about genitalia here – if things don’t go well, flailing hooves can hit you hard enough to cause some major damage)
iiiii hope it’s not real, but i’m sure as hell not brave enough to find out. i drew the line at lemonparty…
276….my bar? Baiting? My dear friend. You do not have a clue. It’s called humor. Fucking insult me w/ your bullshit and not a minute of struggle in this world and try to explain ROMANCE to the epic romantic. You are full of it. Don’t you ever fucking try to insinuate you know anything about anyone. Least of all me. Friend.
Glasses clinking? Farmington crystal shattering? I despise elitists. Muffy and Buffy are doing just fabulous. WE DON’T CARE. Don’t tell me about fucking Browning. I’ve got a gd PHd in it. I’m tired of your rambling crap and I’m from Boston so I can say it. Enough already. You are boring. Dull. Go away.
Dear Taliesin, woah. where the heck do you get off insinuating that I am remotely elitist? i don’t know who you think “we” are, but “muffy and buffy” are not me. You mentioned browning, I am familiar with browning, through the public school system, but am first to say that I’m not so “elitist” that I could possibly be construed as an expert on browning, who has the fucking time… or maybe you have/did. I’m so glad that you had the time/money to “achieve” your Phd. Congrats. I did not. You don’t like my “rambling” crap, and you’re from Boston (like that means anything here)? You know what, go back to fucking Boston. I’m sure they appreciate your shit a heck of lot more than anyone here might. Yeah, baby, go home.
ok, i will allow that whatever you said has any deep meaning, i didn’t get it, but again, only know browning through the public school system, so, yeah. What? To be specific, who is “he”, and what the heck is sugaring the sour ones….. OK, I rise to the challenge/education… what am I missing here?
and, damnation, I’m alone again. I just want to say to all those oh-so-intellegent and snarky singles with no kids out there young folk, commenting late into the wee hours is damn hard. Yes, I’m fueled, but when you’re as old as I am, i hope you have something else to live for, cause this ain’t easy folks…OD, I know you left early, but I miss you nonetheless.
OMFG LMAO…Shen…care to comment on 274? It’s too early for popcorn, but I’ll snuggle down here on the cVillain couch and nibble on this old poptart that I found stuck down the back of the cushions….waiting….
/Taliesin…. you are awesome darlin’….just utterly fucking awesome.
Easy, friends… i think everyone was joking around there… my fault BP for staring it.
Sorry i rang out before i could pour oil on the water. The little foxes. ‘Only God and Browning know what Browning was talking about’ (provenance on that one? Auden?). Delighted people still study verse; do you know me, T?

You cut me to the quick dear lady, with your trucker’s mouth and extensive palate of urbane zingers.
I can only hope you are not the finest example of southern spinster this blog has to offer.
what?what?….oh sorry Shen… I was round the back of the Kmart dumpster giving your ex BF his first ever BJ…. never seen a grown man cry like that before… touching, very touching.
Yeah, he’s sweet and deserved it. I never wanted to get the Herp though. I bet you could run into K-Mart and grab some Valtrex and Abreva before you head back to the office.
@310: Before mc and Tuffy freak out, let me clarify that the Herpes-ridden BJ ex Floozy and I are referring to is a fictional character and has no connection with real ex bf’s that are your friend.

Great! rolls eyes
Good deals on bad drinks from that surly little bastard who thinks he’s some kind of bartending god? I can’t wait. Maybe they’ll have someone else back there too…
Yeah you do. Bee-otch.
@6: Cassis blows. You are spot on, luv.
ugh, that picture just mde my eyes invert.
Good deals on bad drinks from that surly little bastard who thinks he’s some kind of bartending god?
Actually, he won’t be there tonight. Joya is filling in for him.

hmmmmm. haven’t been out except to X and Garage (once each) in about ten years.

@15: I wag my private parts in your general direction. I spit on you and your Cassis and your drinking club and your C-ville’s best bartender. Ptttteu.
What if she had an eye patch? Then you’d like her.
I love Joya, she’s great. That is all.
@18… If it’s Joya, will she be serving the echo?
She will be serving echo, probably over-serving echo, but I don’t know if she has the ingredients for the echo.
Looking forward to it.

So, what exactly is an echo? The drink, I mean. The poster, I’m assuming, is a person.
@29 Lying under a chair? In no way an expert or known for musical taste, but I like Dexter Gordon. Despite being a cornet player for seven years, always fascinated by the sound of the tenor sax. Swear it had nothing to do with having a crush on the single tenor sax player in high school band…
tequila, blueberry vodka, & some other crap.
Flavored vodka = gay
‘gay’ is an offensive epithet apparently used in that way. we determined this through the cavalier daily opinions column in discussing the Not-Gay chant at UVA football games, where it was banned from counter-statement in the UVA song.
Sorry. I also say things are “Retarded” or “Lame” so I’m an all around offensive pig. What’s a better word to say something is cheesy/sucky?
What’s a better word to say something is cheesy/sucky?
“cheesy” and “sucky” leap to mind.
I would have expected better from Mr.Thesaurus.
#37
Offensive to milk products and to Dairy Farmers in Wisconsin and the People’s Republic of France.
The other from “You Suck” offensive to ‘queers’ and i read somewhere here ‘kneepadders’.
I heard saying “sucky” offends leeches.
And Lamprey Eels.
And The Hoover Vacuum Company and its Union Employees.
Are there no perjoratives that don’t offend someone?
I dunno, to play the devil’s advocate and not to get into a big thing here, I think calling something “gay” or “retarded” in a derogatory manner is a little bit offensive. I don’t want to argue it, and PP, you know I don’t find you offensive; I think your candor is refreshing. But, I can certainly sympathize with people taking exception to the words in that connotation. Especially homosexuals with Trisomy 21.
Interesting read about it:
http://archive.salon.com/people/feature/2000/09/14/gaygaygay/index.html
@42 I would say “wack,” as in “Flavored vodka is wack,” but then you and I might get into another kerfluffle about the White appropriation of race-based cultural ideologies and vernacular, which would once again serve as hitting the Escape key and/or “Reset” button on the entire Cvillain pseudonym structure, as well as someone buying a McQuit off the dollar menu, so I won’t.
Queer is the term preferred by academics and gay is derogatory when used by a non-gay. Rappers can say that word but you’d better not. This blog doesn’t worry about offending people in race, intellect, orientation, disability or other things. Rarely does anyone object. I don’t want to cramp anyone’s style because I don’t belong here. That’s clear. I heard this blog is funny. I should read it and not write, and keep my personal offense to myself as writers here offer their personal offensiveness to everyone else.
Wack means crazy.
I think it is “whack” as in “Yo Brother don’t you know that crack is whack?” but i could be wrong.
Wacky versus Whack.
I mean, I’m not using this as a footnote source anytime soon, but:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wack
Oh, well if the urban dictionary says it, it must be right. Flavored vodka is wack.
I think that’s a wiki, not an authoritative source.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=whack
Look, I just pointed out a quick and easy link that elaborated on the context and spelling of how I have come to understand the word.
If you’d like more legit literature on the subject, well, uh, I’d be happy to find some examples and get back to ya, Katie!
Who is Katie? Please explain that.
Urban Dictiuonary is cool. It’s funny that wack and whack have the same definitions in it. Hard totranslate spoken language into lexicography.
No, it’s great. Wack is perfect. I will say that from now on instead of “gay”. Thanks man.
@53: Oh and THE CODE!
@53: Oh and THE CODE!
No code violation. He was making a reference to the recent Palin-Couric interview. And it was funny.
Again, Please explain who is Katie and what that has to do with me.
I see. I’m not that clever and did not see the interview. That’s like Oliver North saying “Let me refresh myself from my notes” whenever anyone asked him a direct question about illegal shit he did? OK !
Oh I thought 26 World had figured out that I am really Katie Couric. Damn him and his ESPN.
And I thought you all had figured out that I was really Sarah Palin. Oh well. I guess I’m going to go read all the newspapers. All of them. Every last one.
Everything’s going over my head. Must be lunchtime.
@62 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9go38MgZ4w8

I’m not ‘bending over’ for anybody: gay gay gay gay gay.
Don’t be gay, Sparky.
26, you made me laugh my ass off. funny comments!
/still reading ALL papers…..
…going off on my own little tangent here….
Just had lunch (and beer) post kickball at Boylan Heights. The food was good, not great, but the prices were enough to make me only go there when I’m not hungry. This isn’t a slam on Chad or his picking the place for the post kickball hang out. But the two for one wings special came out to $7 for 10 wings. I can’t imagine paying $7 for only 5 wings. Who pays more than $1 per wing? The burgers are $7.50 without anything else (fries, slaw, etc. Adding regular fries and a soft drink bumps it up by $4) and the wedge salad (quarter of a head of iceberg lettuce and a few toppings) for $6?
That is wack.
iceberg wedge salad is the dumbest invention ever, anyway.
THAT’S why the fucking Antarctic is rapidly disappearing… nothing to do with global warming… it’s bogus restaurant owners chipping away at the icepack to create a trendy, yet curiously unsatisfying novel dish.
What about the penguins,eh? Where are they going to go and freeze their bollocks off when it’s all gone?Well?
my feet, they’re big and REALLY, REALLY cold
/what i’m told
Where are they going to go and freeze their bollocks off when it’s all gone?Well?
Dude, the penguins have given up and adopted a new home. Her name is Rio.
@72 Ha! That made me laugh! Actually, it was more hearing the word Rio as it constantly sparks the song in my head. Wonder if they’re dancing in the sand, too….
“don’t like the red plastic igloos”??
What are they looking for, a friggin’ georgian style four bedroom?
73: Obligatory penguin dancing video.
@73 – yep, me, too. I might have to put on another song just to get that out of my head. If they’re relocating to Rio – am pretty sure they are dancing in the sand. Just wondering what style penguins dance to, and if they’re ripe for some sort of reality show dance off competition. Would they be willing to go up against, say, chickens?
/dang, now have the “chicken dance” song in my head – gaah!

BP, would’ve if my mind hadn’t shorted out (no pun intended) on remembering that Short Pump is near Richmond. I’m firmly entrenched in the Cville area, both work and home, so it wouldn’t make sense.
Sometimes, I’ll save my errands (groceries, neccessities, gas, etc.) for heading over the mountain to Waynesboro or Staunton, even. Gas is easily 30 cents cheaper at times, not to mention the cheaper groceries, etc.
I’d rather spend 30 minutes on the interstate (or 250) than 20-30 minutes in traffic here to head uptown.
I totally agree. If I hadn’t been doing the out-of-town-pre-homecoming-shopping-trip-because-charlottesville-ain’t got no friggin fashionably ok homecoming dresses for the nooby freshman high school student, ey, I would have never known, but was really happy to discover it, ya know? I’m with you, I live and work well inside the albemarle county limits, otherwise. Don’t see any reason to travel more than over to sam’s, and only if convenient, to save 12 cents or so off the prices on pantops.

This has been around for a while but it still makes me smile…
Following the problems in the sub-prime lending market in America and
the banking problems in the UK, uncertainty has now hit Japan.
In the last 7 days Origami Bank has folded, Sumo Bank has gone belly up
and Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches.
Yesterday, it was announced that Karaoke Bank is up for sale and will
likely go for a song while today shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended
after they nose-dived.
While Samurai Bank are soldiering on following sharp cutbacks, Ninja
Bank are reported to have taken a hit, but they remain in the black.
Furthermore, 500 staff at Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report
that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank where it is feared
that staff may get a raw deal.
Good lord it’s dead on here today. I hear crickets.

I was surprised to find the new version of ABSENTE (the old version was pretty undrinkable) altogether not bad. Haven’t been able to afford the SWISS stuff at the ABC store yet, but if a few more Mall-bidness-people drop pennies in my bucket, i may be able to get some later this week and report back on the real stuff.
does anyone else ever play music on the Mall (see Hard Times Thread) for a little extra beer-money?
A buddy of mine used to make about 300 bucks every Friday night (but he was talented). I haven’t been able to break about 50 bucks, but i’m probably quieter and acoustic-er and talentless.
Anyone know if you have to get a permit to play these days (like a vendor permit or something?) like in other cities, or if it’s still same-old Cville where you can just hit people up for change any-ole-time you feel like it, performing or just annoying (or in my case both).

@Feeding Our Hungry Indigents
How is that campaign for edible-ornamental vegetation around the City going, anyhow?
There were nice herbs in the ovoid planters on the Mall for a while, but I haven’t seen any other initiatives followed-through. The planters around Miller’s look promising for those upside-down cherry-tomato dinguses. If we lobby REALLY HARD do you think City Council would let us start a Cranberry Bog in Central Place Fountain?
@Feeding our hungry indigents
Shame nobody else is out here… i think we could really run with this:
1. the new Great-Halsey-Hotel will be blocked-off with chainlink fence for two years’ construction–what about keeping a few thousand turkeys in there?
2. the Pavilion won’t be used until late Spring–we could get a decent herd of those miniaturized dairy cows to graze there.
3. the trees on the Mall are just BEGGING to be infested with edible koalas and sloths.
4. Gravity Lounge, closing soon, would be perfect for growing Shitakes.
5. many arctic expeditions survived on blubber and meat from weddell seals and penguins–The Ice Park?
6. If the City won’t go for a cranberry bog in the Central Place fountain, maybe we could tempt them with a few tasty manatees and platypuses?
/why are we doing nothing to feed the children in these terrible times?!?!?!
TOPIC CHANGE! (Temporary, if you can indulge me…)
This may be my inherent small-town girl naivete, but do I have anything to worry about the taxi drivers in this town? Some asshole (which a lot of people do this to me) honked his horn while I was still checking my blind spots before pulling out into traffic. It was just enough, on top of everything else today, that I threw my hand out the window (that’s making me laugh) and gestured at him. Not a full-on gesture, but just a gesture of disgust. He saw me park on the side of the street where I’ll be parked the rest of the night.
I’m just so wary of people in this town. Plus, if anything would happen, it would happen to me. I’m the red-headed step child of Murphy’s Law. I just didn’t know if crazy things like that happen around here…
Vengence seeking taxi drivers and all that….
Oh, and after I gestured, he drove right up behind me while we were stuck in traffic and honked his horn again. I shook my head at him in my rearview mirror.
Naive, I know.
FYI, X Lounge just changed a lot of things on their menu for the changing fall season. There’s a lot of delicious new items, come in and try it out!

@117 we’re all having a such a good time watching the otter & panther show, we forgot we could comment.
and where the fuck is uva lagrape?
in the wild a panther would eat a otter but not its dung. But a Pink Panther would a genetic mutation so could not be in the wild. If held it captivity that panther might very well suffer from coprophagy.

but of course, panthers don’t swim. and otterdung sinks. so no matter the alleged copraphilia of panthers, pink or otherwise, i think both otter and his scat (’spraints’, i’ve been told) are safe from degustation. now, the detente of the “watering-hole” (a joke there, if anyone wants to run with it) could allow for other panther-otter activities, see pink-thong above.

you’d think then panthers would eat cuddly filling manatees instead of low-calorie otters.
were i to specify SEA-otter, there’d be nary a panther in sight. Otters will waddle humourously on land, but their webbed feet make it uncomfortable and imprudent. they rarely climb trees, where panthers snack on cuddly koalas and sloths no doubt by proximate convenince and preference. also, otter food-sources are all or mostly marine/aquatic?

Who’s wearing underwear? My Virgin of Guadeloupe needs to breathe.
Dear Dr Phil,
I’m having really violent thoughts involving Otter, e-DuctTape® and just a teeny tiny breathing hole that I can cover with my index finger. If I repress these urges, will it affect me in years to come,for example could it cause premature menopause or a really itchy flaky scalp?
Yours Most Sincerely,
Flooze
@148
Dear Floozy,
Write a couple dang comments now and again and i won’t have to blather-on so.
Love and web-footed snuggles,
otterdung
Floozy,
you must not bottle up these urges. It will only lead to a pressure release that will be misused on your loved ones. They are not the cause. ACT now, before it’s too late.
Love, Dr. Phil
Dear Floozy,
Repressing urges such as these has been known to lead to much worse symptoms, such as spontaneous combustion or finding sexual interest in cars. Contrary to popular belief, indulging in your violent actions will turn a benefit. Examples include an increased sense of well-being, a boost in popularity, unlimited access to vending machines, and strong, healthy nails. In some cases, you may also find you achieve enlightenment – that, or find a twenty on the ground. Same difference.

@170 It’s concise and insightful. A beautiful stream of consciousness. Its cryptic simplicity reminds me of being called home one night in college by my roommate, only to find, delicately written on a torn half-sheet of paper towel, a note that says “THINGS ARE NOT GOOD!!! – Bxxxxxx”. After finding the apartment empty and dark, another slurred phone call that swears she’s in the apartment, I find her passed out in the driver’s seat of her car in front of the building…

Hey Pinky P, have you played any air bass guitar lately? I heard all the cool kids are doing it.
I’ll just leave this here.
mornin’!
ah, well. ya’ll make me blush (or maybe that’s just me).
i knew i’d posted just one bit that summed up Very Important Things last night. thanks for being here-
have a great weekend! i am outta here until next week;) .
@177: No, but I heard you do. Let’s include eveyone else in on the joke shall we? echo and I went to Ventana and we’re drinking (no way!) and I look over and he’s got one arm on the bar, palm facing up, and one hand between his spread legs. And his fingers are wiggling. I’m like, What are you doing? Playing the air bass? So if you see echo, play some air guitar for him.
Has anyone seen that sketch…don’t remember who the comic is, maybe Dane Cook or Dave Attell or Jim Gaffigan…and he’s talking about how to play air guitar. And to play air bass, you put one hand up and with the other you “strum your balls” and he walks around the stage going, “Strummin my balls, strumming my balls” and it looks EXACTLY like he’s playing bass.
Apologies to any real guitarists I just offended with this insipid anecdote.
“It’s like listening to learning-disabled stuttering sloths talking about the weather.”

“It’s like listening to learning-disabled stuttering sloths talking about testes.”
/apologies to Pink/Echo I just offended with this amendation.

/Don’t worry, I’m in therapy for it all. I’m normal…but in strange ways.
Dear scoriole, have a great week, we can’t wait to hear from you again!
I was out last night and some dude comes up to me and says, “You’re shenanigans, right?” and I faked innocence, wide-eyed for a moment but he insisted. Finally, I admitted, “Yeah, I was. But it became too much.” I told him how I became a whipping boy and constant target and that I got sick of it. He said, “That’s too bad, you were such a bad ass on there. You were the queen bee!”
Well, I never wanted to be the queen bee. But I am pretty badass. It would be nice to just be able to be myself without having people attack me just for the sake of it or harp on me for past mistakes. I don’t pick on lurkers and I’m not a bully, I don’t seek attention and I don’t try to dominate the site. I just love the site and what it does for discourse and community.
Simply put, something about the site rings my bell and I want to participate without being skewered by people who hold grudges or don’t get my humor.
The people out there, they like me. They tell me whenever I’m out. So hi again.
P.S. The Shazammyfans parody was fucking hilarious and I loved it. Kisses for you and your precise wit.
But I am pretty badass.
And there you go again acting like you’re the greatest thing that ever happened to the internetz.
You know I am. Keep it up echo-bo-becho and I’ll shoot you with the soda gun next time you come to X. Don’t wear a white shirt, we don’t wanna see your huge brown nipples.
I guess you want otterdung back now? Damn.

Weekend Preview
1. Drink absinthe and nibble on artichokes.
2. Fall asleep in hammock dreaming of Shenanigans.
3. Awaken to court subpoena from HM.
But I need it. I just had an outbreak.
I’ll do a preview. Gimme 15 minutes Spunky Bears.
anything shaking at The Garage tonite?
SHENNNN! (read it like the bar where everyone know your name – cause apparently they do – shouts “Norm!” in unison). Missed you much. Glad you’re mcreturned. And no, I haven’t turned to the lightside.
Ok, I just sent you the worst Weekend preview ever Thor. Enjoy.
@204: Howdy mama. You’re on here early.
Vanillavy is going to take your preview and steal all the cool parts, rewrite it and claim it as their own.
It’s almost 5. I don’t think they’re gonna post it. Frowny face.
Oh they’ll post something. How else are people going to know what to do this weekend. If we don’t get a preview, I’m going to have to get drunk all weekend.

I was a difficult teenager. Do you care to be a bit more specific (understanding your need for privacy, etc.)?

Dear Stanley, email me. (your need for privacy crossed with mine…)

/i think the bloody vikings invaded ireland at one point,
/and tried to make us eat fucking fermented herring.
They settled peacefully according to recent genetic studies of the isles, and that would be pickled herring, not fermented. No to questions one and two as well.
pickled or creamed, yes. fermented is what the vikings ate:
“Surströmming (“soured herring”) is a northern delicacy consisting of fermented Baltic herring .”
and:
“In 795 the first Vikings landed on the Irish shores attacking the Irish monastery in Rathlin Island located near County Antrim. Attacks on Ireland remained very few over the next 30 – 40 years with attacks taking place approximately once a year. It is known the Irish resisted these attacks and in 811 the Ulaidh slaughtered the Vikings attempting to raid Ulster.”
i couldn’t find confirmation of pudgy vikings in horned helmets force-feeding herring to peaceful irish monks.
Otter, don’t argue with the Viking. She will cream you and eat you like a little herring.

Anyone else wonder why the Cville Weekly blatantly sucks-off
the Virginia Quarterly Review in every goddam issue?
Anyone have the inside scoop on this?
Someone staff-to-staff married to someone or fucking someone?
Star fukkers. The VQR has become one of the most popular & awarded lit rags in the USA. The reason? Because now it is topical and slick. Cville’s attention could also be due to Waldo J. working at VQR. I remember when 20s Lawyer Dude was mentioned in almost every issue of Cville, ten years agog’. Hell it had a Dave Matthews Band column! (or was that the Hook?) Natalie Fairfax’s summer stint as a cartoonist was surprisingly interesting, on the other hand.

that makes sense. i haven’t seen the mag in years and years—since it was basically people writing free verse about their cats—but had noticed all the jock-sniffing Cville (and not Hook–which made me wonder, doubly) was doing of it this last year or so. Didn’t know they’d snagged Waldo–good for him.

Truly, I appreciate your concern, but new rules of reengagement dictate that I post no personal shit on this blog ever again… lest it be used against me. Strictly smarm, ancient history, one liners and stupidity. Strictly.
Besides, otter would just mock me again. He owns these boards now. Me? Afterthought.
thank you, byo – didn’t know quite how to respond to all the ugly responses here over the last 24 hours. Completely understand what you mean. OD actually seems to be the one who owns the boards. Do appreciate his input. Would love to meet him in person – ya hear me, OD? SO doesn’t pay to open up, right? Lesson learned.
/Knuckles wrapped and neosporin applied. Still wondering what I did to incite… Maybe dumb late night ramblings all alone in the “room”… didn’t get full rule list…

as to owning the boards—don’t be daft, you two.

If there is anyone out there in the vast wilderness of our lovely full moonlit evening willing to share the moonlight, I’m willing. If not, I shall tuck in your covers and leave quietly, no blathering left behind.
and I fail, and bow down, to OD’s copious commenting on another post before I could get there. Didn’t know you were thinking FAR, FAR more completely than I. Good one, otter.
@271
Talieisin (christ, i haven’t typed that name since grad-school), are you sure it isn’t some sort of pyramid-marketing scheme scam–MusicToday seems pretty shady. Isn’t SIR Elton John already dead or gay or British or something? It seems wildly implausible that he’d be playing Cville–we have shit like WWF and Monster Trucks and Bruce Springsteen here.
@272
I bear glad witness, but am signing off–sorry, BP. I’ll walk out and stare at the moon for you first, though–for at least a long meditative cocktail and cigarette. Goodnight, honeybunch.
@273
thank you, of course, buti’ll get shit for it tomorrow, obviously, for its length and tone and whatever else. i rather suspect the only people left to be amused by such tirades are our new pals and posters from Fairfax (FallsChurch, whatevuh).

My mom is embroiled w/ one at the moment w/ some guy named “Victor” who wants to buy her 200 dollar waterbed but he has to get his public relations expert to send her the check first. I don’t know WTF w/ it, but I’m guessing a) this Elton character is involved b) clearly a Brit and Gay c) when did we let that type in here. I’m going to picket. I don’t know where or why but we don’t do enough picketing anymore.
I’ll let the pseudo waxing at the moon commence. I have to go back and read some more Browning.
@274 – i’m not long for the arms of orpheus, myself. enjoy the moonlight, my friend. and the smoke.
@276 – have ya seen the friggin moon tonight? are you that jaded that you can’t take some reflective moment to revell? I know you’re just baiting, but “that type”? really? I’ve swallowed my foot by accident a couple of times on this blog, but I don’t think I’ve ever reached your “bar”. Yes, Tal, read more Browning…and then read some more.
@ 270 if that’s what i think it is, where the guy supposedly dies afterwards, then that’s got to be the stupidest idea anyone’s had in a long time. i’ve seen horses breed, and the potential for injury to horses and handlers alike is not small. (i’m not even talking about genitalia here – if things don’t go well, flailing hooves can hit you hard enough to cause some major damage)
iiiii hope it’s not real, but i’m sure as hell not brave enough to find out. i drew the line at lemonparty…
276….my bar? Baiting? My dear friend. You do not have a clue. It’s called humor. Fucking insult me w/ your bullshit and not a minute of struggle in this world and try to explain ROMANCE to the epic romantic. You are full of it. Don’t you ever fucking try to insinuate you know anything about anyone. Least of all me. Friend.
I hasten to think I know more about the romance of the moon than you will ever. I’ll try to get on the ponies more. With the ribbons.
Glasses clinking? Farmington crystal shattering? I despise elitists. Muffy and Buffy are doing just fabulous. WE DON’T CARE. Don’t tell me about fucking Browning. I’ve got a gd PHd in it. I’m tired of your rambling crap and I’m from Boston so I can say it. Enough already. You are boring. Dull. Go away.
Sorry against The Code. I don’t care…going back to Cali..Cali..Cali.
Dear Taliesin, woah. where the heck do you get off insinuating that I am remotely elitist? i don’t know who you think “we” are, but “muffy and buffy” are not me. You mentioned browning, I am familiar with browning, through the public school system, but am first to say that I’m not so “elitist” that I could possibly be construed as an expert on browning, who has the fucking time… or maybe you have/did. I’m so glad that you had the time/money to “achieve” your Phd. Congrats. I did not. You don’t like my “rambling” crap, and you’re from Boston (like that means anything here)? You know what, go back to fucking Boston. I’m sure they appreciate your shit a heck of lot more than anyone here might. Yeah, baby, go home.
@283 – please do, sir. The code exists for a reason – simple courtesy. Maybe the yanks don’t understand that concept.
Not that he preached to them or said or did anything in particular, but a virtue went out of him, sugaring the sour ones.
ok, i will allow that whatever you said has any deep meaning, i didn’t get it, but again, only know browning through the public school system, so, yeah. What? To be specific, who is “he”, and what the heck is sugaring the sour ones….. OK, I rise to the challenge/education… what am I missing here?
in the meantime, the moon, friend, the moon – go outside!
taliesin – the moon! Ya, you know you love it.
and, damnation, I’m alone again. I just want to say to all those oh-so-intellegent and snarky singles with no kids out there young folk, commenting late into the wee hours is damn hard. Yes, I’m fueled, but when you’re as old as I am, i hope you have something else to live for, cause this ain’t easy folks…OD, I know you left early, but I miss you nonetheless.
