Quote from: Louisiana Night on July 04, 2004, 01:38:24 PM
QuoteYou remember when Happy Meals came in a box.
They don't still come in a box?

Not in my part of the country, at least. They've switched to using bags. Not as much fun, IMHO.

At any rate, it's utterly scary how many of those are true for me. Heck, I still wear bicycle shorts under skirts (albeit for practical purposes now rather than fashion ones).

Still, there are a few that don't fit for me. For instance, I know I'll probably get lynched for this, but I don't think Saturday Night Live was *ever* funny. :P And I didn't wear Underoos, I had "Day of the Week" underwear. ;P (Heck, I probably should still wear those... I still can never keep track of what day it is.)

Peace & Luv, Liz

QuoteI don't think Saturday Night Live was *ever* funny.

It never could keep my interest long enough, for me to watch a full episode(or even a few minutes). Just seems extremely stupid to me.

Jethro: [Jed and Jethro are discussing a "fast" girl back in the hills] Uncle Jed, she handed me a big old sugar cookie, looked at me and said, "Jethro, if you had a choice between that cookie and me, which one would you take". Uncle Jed, that's when I found out just how fast she was!

[Jed leans in close to hear the rest of the story]

Jethro: I had to run nearly a mile to get away from her with that cookie!

Jed Clampett: Jethro, some day me and you got to have a long talk.

Er... I would classify jelly shoes as shoes made of (usually brightly colored) plastic, usually set in some sort of "weave" pattern.

Okay, so I didn't actually know what jelly shoes were after all... ;]
Now I'm bugged by not knowing what the shoes I was talking about are actually called... :-\

"It's misused in any language...people use powerful words too lightly.  Love and hate.  The repecussions of these words are rarely truly understood."
-Anonymous

"Well, I know I don't truly hate anyone. I don't even hate mushrooms. I just dislike them. But seriously, a friend told me not to use the word hate because it's too strong. What he didn't tell me is that love is equally strong and needs to be used responsibly."

This isn't exactly a quote, but this seemed the best place to post about it.

You know how every movie theater before the movie shows a short bit where they lay down all the rules of the theater? (No talking, no smoking, no cell phones, etc.) Well, the theater Harrison and I saw Spidey 2 at yesterday had one of the funniest ones I've seen in a while.

It had a adult man, a young boy, and Charlie Sheen. (Sorry, he's the only one I recognized off-hand.) It starts with the first two already seated, and as Charlie sits down he asks, "So, you mean there's no nudity in a PG-13 movie?". The other man goes, "No, there's no nudity. Now shhhh." The boy goes, "Yeah, you're not allowed to talk." The words "NO TALKING" show up on the screen, and an announcer voice says, "There is no talking allowed during the movie."

Then we see Charlie lighting up and puffing away on a cigar, and the man leans over and takes it away and goes, "Hey, you can't do that either!" And we see "NO SMOKING", and the announcer says, "There is no smoking inside the theater."

Then the boy wipes his face with a napkin and tosses it on the floor. The man picks it up and says, "Hey, you can't throw that on the floor!" The boy pouts and whines, "Well, where am I supposed to put it?" We see "PLACE TRASH IN RECEPTACLES", and the announcer chimes in with, "Please throw all trash in the proper trash receptacles."

Then we see Charlie yakking on his cell phone, and the boy yanks it away and scolds him, and we see "NO CELL PHONES", and the announcer says "Turn off all cell phones and pagers during the movie."

Then an usher comes over to the trio and says, "I'm sorry, you folks are going to have to leave, you're disrupting the movie." The man says, "Oh, we're not really misbehaving, we're just showing the audience what not to do during a movie. These other folks are all extras. Some of them aren't even real!", and he pulls a fake blow-up dummy into view. Charlie chimes in with, "Yeah, this isn't even a real movie. Look at all the cameras and crew over there."

He points, and the shot then changes to seeing a blank movie screen with lots of crew and cameramen standing in front of it. We then go back to the usher, who's staring with a deadpan look on his face. He then waves and says, "Those cameras aren't allowed in here either, they'll have to leave." It changes back to showing the crew, we see "NO PHOTOGRAPHIC DEVICES", and the announcer says, "No recording devices are allowed during the show."

The shot changes back to the usher and the three "movie-goers", and the usher waves off to the right and says, "Yeah, he has to leave, too." The shot then changes to showing the announcer sitting in the theater in a suit and holding a microphone. "NO ANNOUNCERS" shows on screen, and the announcer guy says with a fake smile, "There are no announcers allowed during the movie."

Finally, we see the three movie-goers and the announcer leaving the theater. Charlie complains, "We just got kicked out of our own public service announcement." The boy asks, "I'm hungry. Can I get a hot dog?" The man goes, "No, that's just a prop, you can't eat those here. If this were a real movie, you could get a real hot dog."

The announcer then looks at the "audience" and says, "You can get refreshments at our local concession stand." The three movie-goers look back at the announcer, and Charlie says, "You have to go away and leave us alone now." The three then walk off-screen. The announcer looks hurt for a moment, then recovers and says, "And now it's time to enjoy the pre-feature previews!", and it ends.

The description just doesn't do it justice... everyone in the theater was sniggering like crazy during the whole thing. Now that's the way to handle the requisite laying down the rules!

Peace & Luv, Liz

Hahaha!  :suffer:  I don't think I've seen that one yet.

By the way, those three guys are from the TV show "Two and a Half Men".  :P

Hee! Thanks. I was kind of wondering why they randomly had Charlie Sheen in such a thing. ;)

I actually think I forgot a couple things in there... my mind doesn't remember details that well. But you still get the gist of how silly it was. XD

Even better was when they said "No announcers", Harrison pretended to jump in shock, and said "Nooooo! They can't do this to me!" and pretended to start crying. That just made me laugh even harder. :suffer:

Subject: Dear Alcohol


Dear Alcohol,

First and foremost, let me tell you that I'm a huge fan of yours. My friend, you always seem to be there when needed.  The perfect post-work cocktail, a beer with the game, and you're even around in the holidays hidden inside chocolates as you warm us when we're stuck in the midst of endless family gatherings.  Yet, lately I've been wondering about your intentions.  While I want to believe that you have my best interests at heart, I feel that your influence has led to some unwise consequences, briefed below for your review.

1. Phone calls: While I agree with you that communication is important, I question the suggestion that any conversation of substance or necessity takes place after 2 a.m.  Why would you make me call those ex-boyfriends/girlfriends when I know for a fact they do not what to hear from me during the day, let alone all hours of the night?

2. Eating: Now, you know I love a good meal and, though cooking is far from my specialty, why you suggested that I eat a kabob with chili sauce, along with a big Italian hoagie and some stale chips (washed down with chocolate Nesquik and topped off with a Kit Kat - all after a few cheese curls and chili cheese fries) is beyond me.  Eclectic eater I am, but I think you went too far this time.

3. Clumsiness: Unless you're subtly trying to tell me that I need to do more yoga to improve my balance, I see NO need to hammer the issue home by causing me to fall down, it's completely unnecessary.  The black and blue marks that appear on my body mysteriously the next day is beyond me. Similarly, it should never take me more than 45 seconds to get the front door key into the lock.

4. Pictures: This can be a blessing in disguise, as it can often clarify the last point below, but the following costumes are banned from ever being placed on my head in public again: Indian wigs, sombreros, bows, ties, boxes, upside-down cups, inflatable balloon animals, traffic cones, or bras. Also, what is with you making me take pictures with people I clearly don't like when I'm sober, yet they suddenly become my best friends when a flash is presented?

5. Beer Goggles: If I think I may know him/her from somewhere, I most likely do not.  Please do not request that I go over and see if in fact, I do actually know that person. The phrase 'let's F***' is illegal  from now on. While I may be thinking this, please reinstate the brain-to-mouth-block that would stop this thought from becoming a statement, especially in public. Please stop me from talking to the guy/girl with the acned-up face, bad breath, beer belly, etc. Why are they so appealing to me while I'm with you and why are they so disgusting to me the next morning after you have worn off??

6. Furthermore: The hangovers have GOT to stop. This is getting ridiculous now. I know a little penance for our previous evening's debauchery may be in order, but the 3 p.m hangover immobility is completely unacceptable.  My entire day is shot. I ask that, if the proper precautions are taken
(water, vitamin B, bread products, aspirin) prior to going to bed/passing out facedown on the kitchen floor with a bag of popcorn, the hangover should be minimal and in no way interfere with my daily Saturday or Sunday (or any day for that matter) activities. C'mon now, it's only fair - you do your part, I'll do mine.

Alcohol, I have enjoyed our friendship for some years now and would like to ensure that we remain on good terms.  You've been the invoker of great stories, the provocation for much laughter, and the needed companion when I just don't know what to do with the extra money in my pockets.  In order to continue this friendship, I ask that you carefully review my grievances above and address them immediately.  I will look for an answer no later than Friday 3 p.m. (pre-happy hour) on your possible solutions and hopefully we can continue this fruitful partnership.

Thank you from your biggest fan.

HOW TO ANNOY PEOPLE (not that it's hard ;))

QuoteAt a golf tournament, chant "swing-batatatatatata-suhWING-batter!"

*pictures it in his mind*

Now THAT's funny! XD

QuoteHonk and wave to strangers.

Won't work here, they'll assume they know you.

QuoteLearn Morse code, and have conversations with friends in public consisting entirely of "Beeeep Bip Bip Beeeep Bip..."

Fun, but make sure you replace the beeps and bips with something else(I've forgotten most of it now :( ).

QuoteName your dog "Dog".

That won't annoy most people, at least around here.

P.S. I know people that have done about 25-50% of those(many on the same day).
