A long, long time ago, at CJMB, I started a now 15 page thread with this same title after several people complained of hijacking in serious threads.

Also, the thread can be used to test functions of the message board you are learning, or any question you have that maybe you don't feel deserve their own thread in forum stuff.

Here's how the hijackings work:

You steal a post you want to resond to off-topic from a another thread by copying and pasting the quote to this thread. Then, post your hijack. Happy hijacking!

analoguegirl is gonna love this.

Gosh, you really must think I am an Eeyore

digpenwrote to l/p:


L/P... the picture of your real self is beautiful as well. I cannot see why you would have a picture of jennifer knapp as your avatar when you have a perfectly lovely picture of yourself available.

digpen....maybe your picture is peter graves and not you.
anna...is that really you? Is anybody real or is this just a clever illusion to make me crazy?
maybe we are all just pixels.

I agree with Trudes.

Having said that...i have no idea who Jennifer Knapp is, but she seems cute enough.

This thread is also for meaningless, pointless stuff we must share, like this:

Coffee, coffee let me be
you rev me up and set me free
to wander halls so late at night
and give my daughter such a fright
to see my pasty face aglow
and looming when she had to go
at 3 a.m., and how she screamed
to see the cloud of coffee steam
obscure my face, I disappeared!
Just as she had always feared.
I held her tight, her sobs did soften
she said, “I thought we’d need a coffin.”
After that the bathroom light
lights up the halls every night.

adorable, anna

Thanks. 10-minute rhymes are fun.

Can i contribute a random observation of the day?

20 oz coke + Entemann's crumb cakes = breakfast of champions. or breakfast of cubicles.

Heh. Here's another breakfast of champions: Cadbury mini-eggs.
(seriously, why can't I stop eating them?)

ps- Anna, your poem is cute.

Steve and Mandy...

In about four hours you guys will be so sleepy all you'll want to do is take a nap.
sugar high -------> sugar low

uh...those naps will probably be individual...just sayin'

That cute poem about coffee made me think of this:

I don't really like coffee, she said, but I don't really like it when my head hits my desk when I fall asleep either. ---Storypeople

See, the adult part of me know this, but the inner-child part says, "These are only available till Easter! Eat them NOW, while you still can!"
And I won't be able to take a nap 'cause I'm about to drink some coffee.

Wheee! I am so healthy!

ps- I don't eat candy for breakfast very often. Breakfast is reserved for my one true love, Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds.

I never knew who Jennifer Knapp is nor what she looked like...so for three or four weeks I've had a mental image of what I thought l/p looked like.
Oddly, this dynamic isn't an issue with me when when folks have, say, puppies or cartoons as avatars.
Well... I did think digpen was a typewriter for the longest time....

This is schizo fodder. Pizzacutter...i need you

I know. I have just keep consuming caffination every so often to keep my pulse going. I can't do this getting up at 6:00 AM thing. My body just won't accept it.

I have to take those Tylenol Simply Sleep things to fall asleep by midnight too.

Kylie, I have a friend with rheumatoid arthritis, so I can empathize. Are you on medication for it?

thanks anna, i needed a place to all home.
uh, is there a thread to hijack this one?

well, i was. but then i stopped. i think with the changing weather, and the need to be more active... i'm gonna get some more meds! i'm doing a lot better than i used to be! fo sho.

thanks, becky.

O, there is such irony
that woman would complain to he
who with great care oft fails to miss
the seat, and sprinkles it with piss.

And yet when feeling that same urge
In public to her bladder purge
She often hovers o’er the seat
as if her ass were such a treat
it should not touch; I thus entreat,
girls, wipe your piss off toilet seats!

in reply to kentuckiannna
with my apologies to any offended:

Porcelain Peace

A man can mortal sin commit
And get at worst a hissy fit,
But if toilet seat he should forget
His life may yet become forfeit.

Amazing thing about that seat--
When upright, easy to keep neat;
Yet even the best with aim renown
Can hardly keep it clean when down.

So should he wish to pass inspection
He must sanitize for her protection,
Especially if they two are lovers
And he wants welcome 'twixt the covers.

Perhaps this thing would work out best--
I tell the truth, I do not jest--
If men would leave the seat alone,
And always sit upon the throne.

Since we're on the subject of toilets and piss and what not... I never did get the women-mad-at-men-cause-they-don't-put-the-seat-down, thing. Using that logic, men should be equally ticked at women for not putting it back up. Me? I keep the lid down. There's a reason it's called a lid. You open it when you need to get in and you close it when you're done. Walking into the bathroom to see a toilet bowl smiling up way too big at me is just, ew. Not gross-out ew, unecessary ew.

Gross-out ew
is thinking about the teeny drops of toilet bowl..uh...fluid...being sprayed into the air every time the toilet gets flushed.
And these little dropletts landing on anything in the general vicinity...
ie: your toothbrush, towels, facecloths

i totally just watched something about that last week!

that is so sick and i never thought about it. luckily - i wasn't in any danger.

Well, this seems to be the best place to introduce you to something I recorded several years ago, My Ode To Coffee. For the love of all things good and holy, make sure you're speakers are turned down, it's pretty darn loud.


Damn Tripod is not allowing me to link to it!!!! Just go to the website http://clone316.tripod.com and follow the link posted there.

Yeah, yeah, Anna, tell 'em why you REALLY did it! Gads, Anna, is that really up to 15 pages? I don't think I've ever posted there. Perhaps I might at this one.

Cher

I guess I just did! Bwahahahahahahahahaha!

Hmm. Good point, Trudes. Living alone I don't think about that much, being a chronic lid-closer 'n all. So I'm altering my ew from unnecessary to gross-out.

I lived with girls for awhile, I'm good at putting the seat down now.

I'm all domesticated and stuff now...oy.

I'm glad some of you girls do in fact close the lid. Most girls I know will leave the lid up, and it totaly bugs the snot out of me. Especially if there's anything that didn't quite make it down. Gross!!!!

And for the record, no girl has ever complained about me not putting the seat down.

I've had my life threatened by it. I learned never to do that again.

Miller High Life

That, is a word association music hijack. that felt good. thanks

LOL! Welcome to the Lounge, Cher! Good to see you here, and on this board in general, my friend.

Are you gonna make Dayton, btw? I'd love to see you again. This is gonna be one heck-of-a-good time, and NO MOOSE. heh.

I'm so bored....where is everybody? I finally get home and y'all leave. Come back! I've got coffee!

I don't know where the cool ones have been, but I have been away, paralyzed by decisions concerning toilet seat placement.

LOL! I saw your poem. Did you write that yourself?

I was inspired to pen that after reading your poem.
I have three daughters in addition to my wife.
So I know the protocol.

Haha. Good work, that. I'm going to title my poem Public Service Announcement and I'm going to read it out at my next poetry reading. I hate going into the well-kept bathrooms at school only to find some prissy-arse has left her skankified liquids on the seat. People think it's only males females have trouble with. It's not, it's some of the ladies too!

Amen to that! Some of the girls on my floor are just gross about toilet contamination. And some of them don't wash their hands, no matter what business they've had on the toilet. Ew!

Ewww, indeed. Maybe I should makes little stickers with my poem printed on it and post them on the doors of the stalls (on the inside, of course). Maybe you should too. Feel free...I offer it up to the public domain.

I think my RA would be up for it.

btw
have any of you clean people ever seen the little device by rest assured
It is a small uv light that can show you in hotel rooms, etc., where there is residue of organic contamination

I've seen the device used on Dateline or some other program like that. Doesn't look like something that'd make me rest assured. Heh.

Does it make you sad that our children will have no idea who the California Raisins are?

Oh, I don't think I'd want to know. I'd hold it until my bladder exploded if I did.

what is really gross is that demonstrations have shown how walls, ceilings, tables, counter tops, and even bedspreads in motels are often contaminated

Our kids? Try anyone 18 or younger. I mean, elementary school (and middle school) kids are already oblivious to the Smurfs.

While I loved California Raisons as a kid, I think the existance of the Power Puff Girls and Yu-gi-o result in a net feeling of loss for me. I was so cheated!

going from toilet seats to bed spreads to raisins is killing my apetite

Thanks ... now I really want to fly up to Ohio and stay in a hotel for Taft in December!

By the way, Anna, I like the new avatar!

good night, all
