Soylent Green Acres

[Hoople]

Now there's a solution if ever there was one. At least it's my favorite color.

[Churak]

hey...me too!!!

[Hoople]

Apparently we are not a twisted and bizarre enough society by your standards, for the word has not invaded our pop lexicon as schadenfruede has.

Your link isn't working for me.

[Hoople]

I HATE when my sperm clump together.

[Lownumba]

Actually, mitfreude WAS the word you sought in your slaver. Happiness for the good fortune of others....what a twisted and bizarre concept.

Try gargling with Green Chartreuse. It'll kill the pain and give you a reason to droll when you can no longer feel your gums.

[ergo sum]

Agglutination is highly overrated.

[Hoople]

You will be mildly amused to find that I am drooling again. All of the nerves have been extracted from the tooth yet it still aches. Would this suffice as a minor fix? However! I am about to drug myself. In half an hour I'll be better than new. You will have to determine if Schadenfreude or mitfreude (which is not the damned word I'm looking for but will do unless it means fake gloves or something) are in order.

A German friend of mine told me ages ago (or I'd remember - snicker) the two words: Schadenfreude and another freude word that meant happiness for others who've had some good fortune. I cannot find anywhere on Google that other wonderful freude, the demand for and usefulness of is evidenced in it's suspicious absence from all google queries. I was thinking we ought to make that the next ubiquitous boutique word and thereby inspire random acts of goodness and kindness right here on ihub! Scary. Low, I know you can do it. FIND ME THAT WORD! Pleaaase!!!

P.S. IF THIS IS GIBBERISH, YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION TO DELETE. THE PAIN KILLERS STARTED TAKING EFFECT HALFWAY THROUGH THIS POST. HAVE LOST TOTAL DISCRETION, AND FURTHERMORE, THE CAPS JUST HAPPENED, THEY ARE NOT INTENDED. out.

I can't believe how long it took to write this mess. Beddy bye for me.

[dropdeadfred]

lol

[Susie924]

Howdy Low!

[Lownumba]

Although I am perhaps not as happy as someone who sits across the table from you or a passerby who unknowingly asks you for directions, my first impression is that a drool free Hoople is probably a good thing. You didn't specify whether you were out of pain or out of saliva, but from an aesthetic standpoint, that is unimportant.

I am racked with the pains of morbid titillation withdrawal even as I write. Having proven that an Urban myth is much more costly than an urban myth, CMKX is kaput. (Another lesson from that most splendid board: The truly stupid never die.)

Across town at QBID, Frank "Mrs. Doubtfire" Olsen was ousted in a coup d'Q. In celebration, all board bans were lifted under the amnesty program of Lord Lobo the Cinephile. A cursory reading reveals that many are queer but few are gay. So it goes.

I need a schadenfreude fix and I need it bad.

[Hoople]

Uh, that's schadenfreude, btw. Maybe one day I will look this stuff up before posting like I know what the heck I'm talking about.

[Hoople]

You'll be happy to know I drool no longer. Hmmmmmmm, with your highly developed sense of shaudenfreude ..... maybe not.

And what is Low down to these days? What sub-penny boards and agendas of the faithful are you reading for your morbid titillation fix?

[BullNBear52]

Two days to compose that? You're slipping.

[Lownumba]

Your mouth hurting like a mother is truly sorrowful news. Indeed, not since the rape of Nanking or the 2003 American League Championship Series has a report pained me so.

Ah well, I shall strive to get over it. No doubt you find my resilience admirable. I am comforted by the adage that suffering is good for the soul. I am, of course, referring to your suffering and my soul.

Most people drool with anticipation or drool with lascivious desire. It think it quite refreshing that you drool with pain instead....kinky but refreshing.

I recall fondly the incident you reference. Until now, it had never even occurred to me that your posts that day were intended to be in the English language.

And where are my manners? Thank you, Hoople. Your acknowledgement of my depravity is always warmly welcomed.

[Hoople]

Me or.

I had a root canal today. My mouth hurts like a mother. Am about to take a pain killer. The thought of it reminded me of the time I had taken pain killers for something, was totally loopy and you let me make a damned fool of myself out here. Encouraged it, even. You are so evil.

Off I go to get a glass of water. I'm practically drooling with pain.

[dropdeadfred]

a low board

[ergo sum]

What board are you talking about?

[Lownumba]

Me either.

[dropdeadfred]

I have to fess up... I don't have this board marked

[dropdeadfred]

alright now is the time go get your ass moving.. I want some copy, you have a week.. giddie up!

[Hoople]

They must have turned you into a little green biscuit. Has anyone ever tried to capitalize on the concept. Marketed a snack food called Soylent Green? "Grups are fun"!

Grups was short for grownups in a Startrek episode.

[BullNBear52]

My take on the entertainment...

Cruel sarcasm has always been one of your better attributes.

[dropdeadfred]

[Lownumba]

Dropdeadfred is a handicapping demigod. I am clueless.

They are on the ball aren't they!

All the citizens of the state could be bankrupt by now!

Oyez, Oyez, All Those Not on the Wagon....

Tomorrow marks a pivotal date in western civilization when the third monthly wine tasting occurs on the august and venerable Wine board:

http://www.investorshub.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=4765

To be hosted by crowd favorite Lugan the Beloved, this tasting will feature the always chugable 2004 Brancott Sauvignon Blanc, a wine so ubiquitous that can be found almost nowhere.

This zippy sauvignon blanc (translation: white something) hails from New Zealand, that faraway land where Lord of the Rings was filmed. I don't know about you, but I saw Mordor and immediately thought, "wine country!"

Excellent Late Breaking News: Board moderator Hoople informs me that unlike the last tasting, tomorrow's gala affair will not be limited to the first three people to show up.

So grab a bottle of that kiwi hooch and join in! The board's motto is: "We Only Seem Snooty." Trust me, they'll make you feel right welcome.

[SoxFan]

Hey I never want to be in my head - it's scary in there

[BullNBear52]

I wouldn't want to be in your head tomorrow when you wake up.

[SoxFan]

How can you say such a thing to me? I love wine. Even the wines that come in blue bottles. Heck this evening I'll unscrew open a gallon of Carlo Rossi Paisano with some hard Romano cheese with homemade vinegar peppers (slightly hot), french bread, very hot green fried peppers, hard salami, and proscuitto with my neighbor and have a ball. So I like wine.

[SoxFan]

and the people who know it's here try to avoid it.

[BullNBear52]

Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a
mistake when you make it again.

Introduction to Poetry
I ask them to take a poem
and hold it up to the light
like a color slide

or press an ear against its hive.

I say drop a mouse into a poem
and watch him probe his way out,

or walk inside the poem's room
and feel the walls for a light switch.

I want them to waterski
across the surface of a poem
waving at the author's name on the shore.

But all they want to do
is tie the poem to a chair with rope
and torture a confession out of it.

They begin beating it with a hose
to find out what it really means.

Billy Collins, Poet Laureate of the United States

[BullNBear52]

It's wine tasting not testing. Now pass the Ripple. TIA.

[GotOptions?]

Sounded kind of familiar.

[Lownumba]

A most interesting debut....may I ask how you found this outpost of a board? Even people who know it's here don't know it's here.

The Idea Man

An inventor is moved by the magic of media. So he takes what is beautiful idea making and converts it into 1's and 0's so that it can be transferred over wires all over the world. In that process he strips away the beauty of his spirit and digitizes it into discreet elements that are easily remembered but owned by no one. With the small discreet memory devices he is left with an audience of everyday citizens barking out sound bites that sound more like 1's and 0's than the original spirit of his ideas, minus the 1's and 0's in his reward. Befuddled he wonders where did he go wrong ?

So an inventor "was" moved by the magic of media, maybe there in lies the problem.

[dropdeadfred]

okay you can have seattle for + 4.1

I'll take pittsburgh for BRAG'N RIGHTS
