Just my luck. In a parallel universe I’m tracking down what’s obviously a networking problem with this new printer in a remote location – and nothing is making sense (the iptrace I just ran shows why, I’m just getting RST packets back).
So I pop in here to find I already missed my welcome to feast on some extra brains blown up around the room.

Hey, honestly I’m glad that Abstract was the one to beat me to the punch here. Remember the warning about rigor mortis (cure yourself before it sets in!!! Please!!!!!) and otherwise have fun.
I finally figured out what to put in the zorb with the trolls!!! A swarm of angry wasps!!! Not bee’s ’cause they don’t survive the stinging, but wasps do.
pssssttt…. ZA, I saved you some nice juicy ones in a tupperware. Here ya go! treats self with syrum…aaah, that’s better. now for a nice roast beef sandwich!
*squeezes elsa*
I felt like I was in a Hitchc0ck movie this morning. There were swarms of birds all around my house. I think they were grackles, they were noisy and obnoxious. I flipped them the bird.
At times there is a rather large murder of crows that think it’s funny to land in front of my parents house. When they do so they cover the lawn, sidewalk, street, sidewalk on the other side and the lawn across the street – it’s like a sea of black that takes off when you try to drive through it.
Very Hitchc0ck’s The Birds kinda creepy, but made worse by the fact that they’re crows (black) instead of sea gulls (white).
*taps foot looks around for something else to take a picture of* hmmm hmmm hmmm … *swings camera and telescope around toward Father Starfish’s confessional*
Well that’s it, boys. I’ve been redeemed. The preacher’s done warshed away all my sins and transgressions. It’s the straight and narrow from here on out, and heaven everlasting’s my reward.
It has been long enough since my last confession that I’d better not list all my sins since then.
I brought a tally sheet, though:
Commandment 1: 12 times
Commandment 2: 7 times
Commandment 3: 34 times
Commandment 4: 126 times
Commandment 5: TMTC (That’s “too many to count”)
Commandment 6: 81 times
Commandment 7: 93 times
Commandment 8: 64 times
Commandment 9 181 times
Commandment 10: 53 times
Oh, what? I was supposed to list more than just what I did yesterday? Oh no….
The numbers are read differently in Judaism and Catholicism (and for some in Orthodoxy and Protestantism):
– murder = 6 in Judaism
–adultery = 6 in Catholicsim
… but what are a few little differences between friends?
Are you sure you are looking at the Catholic Ten Commandments? They are differently numbered than most Christian, Jewish and Orthodox denominations. The Catholic Church has deletd the second commandment because there is idolotry withing the Roman Catholic Church. In many versions, the second commandment is absorbed into the first. Check out ht tp (colon) //www.the-ten-commandments.org/romancatholic-tencommandments.html
Thanks for the link, Father, but that is a horrible site (aside from the informative part about which commandment is which – I just randomly made numbers up, as I’m sure you can see). It’s right up there with the Southern phrase, “Bless his heart!” which excuses all manner of insults. Religious intolerance – I just can’t tolerate it!
fater starfish, that was extremely educational, thanks! I forgot about that. they sure do have a lot of statues that they pray to, so i guess they had to delet the 2nd commanment. coming from a baptist background i got all original 10..and broke ‘em all becase “hate is murder in the eyes of god”
You are welcome abstract. I am a born again athiest myself, but remain a fan of all religions. I highly reccomend the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster (Pastafaians).
Clickie. It’s SFW and funny too.
lol, I guess you would call me agnostic if I had to be classified. ther is good and there is evil, do the evil, don’t do the good…..wait wait, that’s backwards
p.s. to: Avis,
ever since I found out about the Council of Nicaea I haven’t been able to get behind any form of organized religeon. It just doesn’t work for me.
Abstract, ever since I found out some people were allowed in and others weren’t, I started pushing away from it. Makes family get-togethers a bit… strained.
Avis, yup, I hear you! I am totaly the black sheep of the family. I left my family home about five and a half/six years ago. I lived with my ex-fiancee for a little over three years and the experienced a terrible break up. I moved home for about a year, then I moved into an apartment with my boyfriend about a year ago and you should have hear the talking to I got. I won’t go into it all, but the highling was when I said, calmly, “I understand that is what you believe”, and with all the rage she could muster from my mother, “That is the truth, that is the only truth!!”. arrg.. I don’t tell anyone what to believe, I’d appreciate the same respect.
what really gets me is how much they beat it into you. One of my very close friends is a lesbian. She is happy, in a healthy relationship, engaged to be wed, all the good stuff, right? And she beats herself up over how she ‘knows’ she won’t go to heaven and how upset she is becase she wants god to love her as she is becasue she loves him. It just hurts to see her so torn. i really just hate that
That is sad, abstract. Have you ever asked her if she realizes that god created her that way? I mean, if you’re religious, you can’t go half way. Either god is omnipresent and almighty, or you mustn’t care about him, right?
How sad! I wonder if she would change churches — I bet it would be better for her state of mind to go to a church that will gladly accept her as she is & will be happy to bless her relationship.
I have a dear friend who has been gearing herself up to break with the Catholic church. She said that leaving church absolutely boiling furious every week sorta goes against her ideas of religion and spirituality and is looking for a place that is more in line with her progressive and liberal views. I’m sooooo proud of her for doing that, too…I know it’s been really difficult for her.
I grew up a devout member of the Lutheran Church, often considered Cathoilic-light. I was deeply into it in high school, I was a member of all the Christian groups and would even go out and evangelize (sp?). The reason I became what I call a born again athiest is the fact that my best friend was a Jewish kid. He is one of the worlds kindest, most thoughtful, and generally good person you could ever meet. One day, as I was struggling with the fact that according to my religion, I asked my pastor a very simple question. I said, “my best friend is Jewish, he is a great guy. When he dies, is he going to hell?” Without even pausing for reflection on my question, my pastor said “absolutely.” I never went back.
Commandment 1:You shall have no other gods before me.
Commandment 2: You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
Commandment 3: You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
Commandment 4: Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
Commandment 5: Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
Commandment 6: You shall not murder.
Commandment 7: You shall not commit adultery.
Commandment 8: You shall not steal.
Commandment 9: You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Commandment 10: You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
Ummm… “Covering” the donkey might break another commandment —- *reads Commandments* Oh no, you are OK — do not see Thou shalt not commit beastialty … so an long as you marry the donkey first …
She’s not Mrs. Brewski. Well, not yet. And she is definitely heterosexual.
Or were you coveting my new pet donkey? We’re not married, either.
*squeeze*
… that shows how different denominations parse those verses (“Division of the commandments as listed in Exodus 20″). Essentially, some (namely, Catholics) see what abstract in her list as “1″ and “2″ to be a single commandment, and then they divide what is listed here as number “10″ into two separate ones (“wife” as “9″ and anything else belonging to your neighbor as “10″).
(Rasputin, btw, felt that forgiveness of sins was so important, that he would help persons … especially attractive female type persons … to do some sinning so they could then seek forgiveness for it.)
Ah! George Carlin, not Bill Cosby. I thought for a minute there, it might have even been Mel Brooks.
Well, they say the memory is the first thing go go….wait, what are we talking about?
Are there no babseball fans here, or is my joke not as funny as I thought? I can’t even say the name Pujols (pronounced poo holes) without giggling. Maybe I’m thirty *caugh* going on twelve.
Thank you guys for coming around. Good old Albert Pujols (St. Louis Cardinals) has been the source of many laughs at the Starfish home. “That’s another grand slam for Pujols” or “Pujols got caught running.”
Pics of Brewski most recent de-pantsing are now posted at brewskisbarebum.edu
Some of them are a little iffy, as he was rolling around trying to get away and all we got was a pic of his Pujols. Next time I won’t zoom in so close ….
This reminds me of watching bull riding late one night — one of the bulls was named “My Wife” and it was very funny listening to the announcers …
“And next up is My Wife….” “oh a buck off, the cowboy just could stay on My Wife…”
I had to switch to Firefox to see that.
That’s hysterical! I’d have died a thousand deaths! Of course, my purse is not where I would keep one of those.

A young, very devout and scholarly man decides to become a monk and join a monastery in the country (religion not specified, but assumptions can be made).
This particular monastery is devoted to the copying and distribution of important religious scrolls and texts. When the man arrives at the monastery, the head monk takes him on a tour. As they’re walking among the work tables, the young man observes, “Father, are these men copying from copies?”
“Why yes, they are. We must preserve the originals as best we can,” the old monk replies.
“Do you check them occasionally against the originals, just to avoid error?” the young man asks.
“No, we don’t,” the old monk says with surprise, “But that’s a good idea!”.
He immediately rushes off to the vaults to have a look at the original documents, leaving the young man at the door of the vault. After a few minutes, the young man hears a loud noise from inside the vault, and goes in to make sure everything is okay. He finds the old monk banging his head on the wall, with tears streaming down his now-red face. “Father! Whatever is wrong?” the young man asks.
“Celebrate. The word was celebrate…”
♪ Oh, I wish I was an Oscar Meyer weiner,
that is what I’d truly like to be-e-e.

My eyes leaked a little, yes. I was quite pleased that I didn’t wind up sobbing. She looked so cute with her great big backpack on her little tiny back.
It’s actually not an issue of stupidity. Anyone could make a mistake like that. It’s hilarious because of the way it indicates the silliness of the Catholic Church.
A wee bit too much of the sacramental wine. Other than that, a blessing WIN! Some of the crowd will mysteriously want to become Cher and wonder why, though….
A little boy was waiting for his mother to come out of the grocery store. As he waited, he was approached by a man who asked, “Son, can you tell me where the Post Office is?”
The little boy replied, “Sure! Just go straight down this street a coupla blocks and turn to your right.”
The man thanked the boy kindly and said, “I’m the new pastor in town. I’d like for you to come to church on Sunday. I’ll show you how to get to Heaven.”
The little boy replied with a chuckle. “Awww, come on… you don’t even know the way to the Post Office.”
Four Catholic ladies are having coffee together. The first one tells her friends, “My son is a priest. When he walks into a room, everyone calls him ‘Father’. The second Catholic woman chirps, “My son is a bishop. Whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Your Grace’.” The third Catholic woman says smugly, “My son is a cardinal. Whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Your Eminence’.” The fourth Catholic woman sips her coffee in silence. The first three women give her this subtle “Well…?” She replies, “My son is a gorgeous, 6′2″, hard-bodied stripper… Whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Oh my God…’.”
Did you guys see that Les Paul died? Honestly, I thought he died years ago. What a fantastic contributor to the rock world.

*holds up lighter in honor of Les*
Amazingly his name hasn’t made it to flymetothetomb yet. I remember talking to someone about him a few months ago, while out at a bar. She mentioned that he still went out and played fairly often, even at his age.
Had a great vacation, only to be welcomed home with much work. But it’s ok, I’m doing good. Did you check for Brits in need of an US Shakespeare expert?
My tan is already gone (almost) and vacation was more expensive than I thought… But hey, I’m relaxed and feel good, thank you. If you and Dragon were on MySpace you could see some photos (some of them even reveil my face).
I have blocked the access for non-friends, sorry. I thought that’s better, considering I frequently mention it here and don’t want trolls to see the pages.
As I said, Brewski, come to MySpace. Free & fun, meet other FBers and share your completely uninteresting photos from CHINA. Of course you can’t expect to compete against Heidelberg, the No. 1 city in the world…

If I remeber what I read in a post by one of the regulars, I should be able to choose my own after a month right? So I should certainly have that option by now. I guess I will have to look around in the account settings and see where I can set it up.
I haven’t really bothered since I can’t post at work which is 28 working days a month. Sad thing is that I RUN MY COMPANIES NETWORK!! The icanhasche…’s tech won’t bother to fix my problem and I know it’s with wordpress.

You know when I sit here working all night I realize that it’s the important questions you need to ask yourself about life. Not just things like if a tree falls with no one around and blah blah… What I wanna know is if you choke a smurf… what color does it turn?? Eh!?! Makes you wonder how “Violet” got her name!! I have a theory! …That girl REALLY pissed off Mum and Dad and one of ‘em let her have it!
I find the more important questions at this time of night to be, “When will these idiots get the hell outta my store?”, and “Why do I have to come back here again tomorrow???”
Hehe. No. I just said that my little brother and his friend were in here earlier, and they were intelligent. Then I said moderately unflattering things regarding the others.
One of his friends was having a birthday dinner at the restaurant next door. He stopped in to say hi and buy a DVD as a gag gift for the friend.
But yeah, my whole family buys from me. We’re not really shy with eachother.
Most definitely. I don’t know where I’d be if it weren’t for my family. They’re a little crazy right now, and things are a bit weird, but my bro and I are at least bonding over our mutual desire to have nothing to do with it. Lol.
You gotta have something.
Right now the only thing my sister and I have in common is that we have oddly shaped pinky-toe nails. They look a bit like corn chips, and I’m sure this image is just rolling around in your brain.

Just now noticed I’m in moderation.

Hehe! That would be fantastic.
I want to poke someone, and shout “HA! I sink your battleship!!!” and then when they start to act confused or ask what I’m talking about, throw a toddler-in-a-toy-store worthy tantrum screaming that they can’t fool me and I sank their battleship, and they’re cheating.
We think alot alike, you and I. Well, maybe just on things like the current subject.
I like to spend my weekends messing with people in public places. It’s more fun when friends participate but the peeps I hang out with would rather hang in a music store and stare at CDs.
I’d probably say the same, but I honestly do not have any friends I really hang out with, sad as that sounds. When you’re young and engaged, working and in college, there just isn’t time for friendship!
But I think you’re right. We think a lot alike. Do you often have people just look at you with a puzzled, slightly concerned head-tilt when you make a joke you thought was absolutely hilarious? I find I get that more and more lately…
I reposted Elsa_Mama’s “Practice safe sects” joke on my myspace, (Which I constantly laughed at for at least 4 hours)
No one found it in the least bit hysterical.
If I recall what I have heard, they’re a bit too punky for me. I’m more of an alternative/numetal fan, myself. Disturbed and Tool make up the majority of my playlist.

Very Hitchc0ck’s The Birds kinda creepy, but made worse by the fact that they’re crows (black) instead of sea gulls (white).
Crows are smart, though. Here’s a video of one making a tool (bending a wire to make it do what the crow wants):

Oh wait… I meant jelly. JELLY!!!! I love jelly on my toast.
It’s okay now?
You eat jam?
Yay!
*dances*
Broke the cardinal rule: must refresh.
Wow — I did not know Jam could fit on taost!
Me either. How big is your bread Leila?
*pours more champagne in Brewski’s mouth*
Hey Lurk– back from Lunch? Is Brewski stewed yet? The camera is currently documenting Father Starfish, but can be moved back …
Well I’m not sure how much champagne he drank while I was gone. But be ready, ok?
Stewed?? Nah! Jush a liddle roashted!!
Weee!
Cleanup on aisle 5!
OK — Camera with telescope attached is zoomed in on the pants area ….
Brewski, you look a little uncomfortable. Let me help you.
*looks around*
Uh oh…
*checks calendar*
Thursday?!?! It’s Thursday!!
NOOOO!!
*runsawaywithaquickness*
Dammit our cover is blown!
*tackles Brewski, ripping pants off in the process*
Woo hoo!
CLIK CLIK CLIK CLIK CLIK CLIK
Got it Lurk!!
*facepalm*
Refresh!
*headdesk*
*squeeze!*
OK — that’s good. Don’t let him move, the camera is zoomed in and focused …. (also using a wide angel lens)
Yes, I’ve heard that wide angels help in these situations.
Halo, Judy! How are you this fine day?
I’m glad to see my friends seraphim the web today.
That has a familiar wing to it…
…to say nothing of the copilot.
You can always make me cherub when I’m feeling down.
Careful, sweets…I might get a big head and start acting like a deva!
Well, you’re farishta my book.
I’m so good, it’s like I’ve been blessed!
And you?
You look beatiful as always.

Oh my, and I missed it!
He turned the tables on that microphone.
Double duty microphone.
I used to hate it when the priests sprayed water on me with that thing. What is that thing called anyway?
Don’t know, but I’d always feel left out if I was the only one who didn’t get sprinkled. Actually, come to think of it, that happened kind of a lot.
*goes to church*
*takes a bucket of holy water*
*dumps it on Bearly*
*Drips onto floor*

Er, thanks, Leila. I guess I’m… blessed now?
*Tries to count blessings instead of sheep*
Blessed are the bears, for they will hibernate in the earth?
Actually Bearly, it’s time for confession. Go see Father Starfish over there.
*installs a bug in the confession booth to listen in*
Hello my child. How long has it been since your last confession?
Well that’s it, boys. I’ve been redeemed. The preacher’s done warshed away all my sins and transgressions. It’s the straight and narrow from here on out, and heaven everlasting’s my reward.
Want to go get a beer?
You’re too young to drink mister!!!
I offered HIM the beer!
Jeez I’m more in a Pepsi mood.
Oh sorry!
*hands Qwaz a Pepsi*
*Accepts Pepsi*
*places it against smack site*
However I should have been clearer that I wouldn’t be having any.
Darn! Always those non-sugarfree drinks. What do you think this is, U.S.A?
Where I am, Yes.
*pounds down Pepsi*
*Crushes can against metallic head*
I have type 1 diabetes
And i still drink non-sugarfree drinks :p
*gives mawcrow a Pepsi zero*
yay!
*dances*
Crap… Now its all shaked.
*goes and buys some pepsi-max*
Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.
It has been long enough since my last confession that I’d better not list all my sins since then.
I brought a tally sheet, though:
Commandment 1: 12 times
Commandment 2: 7 times
Commandment 3: 34 times
Commandment 4: 126 times
Commandment 5: TMTC (That’s “too many to count”)
Commandment 6: 81 times
Commandment 7: 93 times
Commandment 8: 64 times
Commandment 9 181 times
Commandment 10: 53 times
Oh, what? I was supposed to list more than just what I did yesterday? Oh no….
*Looks down at list sadly*
81 murders in a day is pretty impressive!
In the Catholic church my son, the sixth commandment is you shall not commit adultery. That’s even more impressive than murder.
Sorry Kelli, I meant my dauter.
ok, i tried to post the ist twice, but it is in moderation. #6 is murder. I checked about 5 websites to make sure.
The numbers are read differently in Judaism and Catholicism (and for some in Orthodoxy and Protestantism):
– murder = 6 in Judaism
–adultery = 6 in Catholicsim
… but what are a few little differences between friends?
The Blogmonster must be hungry for religion.
Are you sure you are looking at the Catholic Ten Commandments? They are differently numbered than most Christian, Jewish and Orthodox denominations. The Catholic Church has deletd the second commandment because there is idolotry withing the Roman Catholic Church. In many versions, the second commandment is absorbed into the first. Check out ht tp (colon) //www.the-ten-commandments.org/romancatholic-tencommandments.html
the regualr ones Moses went up and got. all i did was a search on the web.
Thanks for the link, Father, but that is a horrible site (aside from the informative part about which commandment is which – I just randomly made numbers up, as I’m sure you can see). It’s right up there with the Southern phrase, “Bless his heart!” which excuses all manner of insults. Religious intolerance – I just can’t tolerate it!
fater starfish, that was extremely educational, thanks! I forgot about that. they sure do have a lot of statues that they pray to, so i guess they had to delet the 2nd commanment. coming from a baptist background i got all original 10..and broke ‘em all becase “hate is murder in the eyes of god”
Abstract, various bibles disagree on some points. This is one of them. Basically same book, basically same story, slightly different details.
You are welcome abstract. I am a born again athiest myself, but remain a fan of all religions. I highly reccomend the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster (Pastafaians).
Clickie. It’s SFW and funny too.
lol, I guess you would call me agnostic if I had to be classified. ther is good and there is evil, do the evil, don’t do the good…..wait wait, that’s backwards
I guess I would call myself agnostic too. I cannot prove or disprove her existence.
oops
p.s. to: Avis,
ever since I found out about the Council of Nicaea I haven’t been able to get behind any form of organized religeon. It just doesn’t work for me.
Abstract, ever since I found out some people were allowed in and others weren’t, I started pushing away from it. Makes family get-togethers a bit… strained.
*religion
Avis, yup, I hear you! I am totaly the black sheep of the family. I left my family home about five and a half/six years ago. I lived with my ex-fiancee for a little over three years and the experienced a terrible break up. I moved home for about a year, then I moved into an apartment with my boyfriend about a year ago and you should have hear the talking to I got. I won’t go into it all, but the highling was when I said, calmly, “I understand that is what you believe”, and with all the rage she could muster from my mother, “That is the truth, that is the only truth!!”. arrg.. I don’t tell anyone what to believe, I’d appreciate the same respect.
what really gets me is how much they beat it into you. One of my very close friends is a lesbian. She is happy, in a healthy relationship, engaged to be wed, all the good stuff, right? And she beats herself up over how she ‘knows’ she won’t go to heaven and how upset she is becase she wants god to love her as she is becasue she loves him. It just hurts to see her so torn. i really just hate that
That is sad, abstract. Have you ever asked her if she realizes that god created her that way? I mean, if you’re religious, you can’t go half way. Either god is omnipresent and almighty, or you mustn’t care about him, right?
How sad! I wonder if she would change churches — I bet it would be better for her state of mind to go to a church that will gladly accept her as she is & will be happy to bless her relationship.
I have a dear friend who has been gearing herself up to break with the Catholic church. She said that leaving church absolutely boiling furious every week sorta goes against her ideas of religion and spirituality and is looking for a place that is more in line with her progressive and liberal views. I’m sooooo proud of her for doing that, too…I know it’s been really difficult for her.
I grew up a devout member of the Lutheran Church, often considered Cathoilic-light. I was deeply into it in high school, I was a member of all the Christian groups and would even go out and evangelize (sp?). The reason I became what I call a born again athiest is the fact that my best friend was a Jewish kid. He is one of the worlds kindest, most thoughtful, and generally good person you could ever meet. One day, as I was struggling with the fact that according to my religion, I asked my pastor a very simple question. I said, “my best friend is Jewish, he is a great guy. When he dies, is he going to hell?” Without even pausing for reflection on my question, my pastor said “absolutely.” I never went back.
Why Father Starfish, you must have grown up Missouri Synod! My deepest condolences. I did too.
I see you have been a busy girl. Please describe how you broke number 6 in detail.
Psssst!! Tell her to draw pictures too…
And include photographs.

Commandment 1:You shall have no other gods before me.
Commandment 2: You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
Commandment 3: You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
Commandment 4: Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
Commandment 5: Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
Commandment 6: You shall not murder.
Commandment 7: You shall not commit adultery.
Commandment 8: You shall not steal.
Commandment 9: You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Commandment 10: You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
*covets neighbor’s donkey*
*feels guilty*
Covets the hanging sheep …
No, no…it’s “Thou shalt not cover thy neighbor’s donkey”…! The bible is very much against practical jokes.
/Eddie Izzard.
Ummm… “Covering” the donkey might break another commandment —- *reads Commandments* Oh no, you are OK — do not see Thou shalt not commit beastialty … so an long as you marry the donkey first …
*covets Mrs. Brewski?*
She’s not Mrs. Brewski. Well, not yet. And she is definitely heterosexual.

Or were you coveting my new pet donkey? We’re not married, either.
*squeeze*
lol, I was coveting Mrs. Brewski’s potential husband, Brewski
There is a chart on
ht tp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10_Commandments
… that shows how different denominations parse those verses (“Division of the commandments as listed in Exodus 20″). Essentially, some (namely, Catholics) see what abstract in her list as “1″ and “2″ to be a single commandment, and then they divide what is listed here as number “10″ into two separate ones (“wife” as “9″ and anything else belonging to your neighbor as “10″).
(Rasputin, btw, felt that forgiveness of sins was so important, that he would help persons … especially attractive female type persons … to do some sinning so they could then seek forgiveness for it.)
PEOPLE! I bring you these 15…
*CRASH!*
… 10! 10 Commandments!!
And thank you, Mr. Cosby.
I thought it was “Thank you, Mr. Brooks”.

Bingo!
Dangit…I was trying to make the

There is a variety of bibles that were printed containing typos. The ‘adulterous’ or ‘wicked’ bible has “Thou Shalt Commit Adultery”.
Instead, you could go with Carlin’s shorter list.
NSFW clickie(it IS Carlin after all)
Ah! George Carlin, not Bill Cosby. I thought for a minute there, it might have even been Mel Brooks.
Well, they say the memory is the first thing go go….wait, what are we talking about?
Judy, I think what Brewski was referring to was from Mel Brooks’ History of the World. clickie
Carlin does a piece where he edits the 10 down to 2.
Yep!
aspergillum … for casting blessings …
related to “aspersion” … for casting disparagements
I believe the thing you are refering to is an aspersory.

Ass and you shall receive.
Ass not what your country can do for you…
Ass me no questions, I’ll tell you no lies.
All you had to do was ass.
I’ll get to it ass soon ass I’m ready.
Why do you assume I have all the asswers?
Something went a tad asskew.
That’s just assing for trouble.
Just canvassing the people, sorry!
Avass, ye scurvy dogs!! Aaarrrrrrrrrrrr!
it’s called an aspergillium.
And, if it’s not properly cleaned you’ll get asspergillosis.
But you can take Asspirin and feel better.
Assuming you’re not allergic…
I just ate a lot of assidic pineapple, now I’ll have to deal with the cankers.
So it that where it’s at?
That Cardinal really needed some directions!
A cardinal number of directions.
Good (cardinal) point.
We should make that a cardinal rule.
The monsignor should have consulted St. Louis.
He was too busy with a potato and some Pujols.
Are there no babseball fans here, or is my joke not as funny as I thought? I can’t even say the name Pujols (pronounced poo holes) without giggling. Maybe I’m thirty *caugh* going on twelve.
Well, now that you’ve ’splained the pronunciation of Pujols, I started to giggle.. that’s an excellent word.
*snicker*
*snort*
*giggle*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
It’s not just you, trust me. At least he’s got one thing going for him. No one will forget his name!!
I don’t get it – what do poo holes have to do with babseball?
They have to do with potatoes.
Albert Pujols has to do with baseball (Man.. I can’t stop giggling now!)
Thank you guys for coming around. Good old Albert Pujols (St. Louis Cardinals) has been the source of many laughs at the Starfish home. “That’s another grand slam for Pujols” or “Pujols got caught running.”
…ejected?
NOW I’m laughing, too!
(time for a pinch runner)
*pinches Brewski’s bum*
*runs*
So he’s the designated shi…
Oh, I just can’t do it.
On June 3, 2006, he strained himself on a foul pop fly.
While hitting number 2 this inning, Pujols got a base on balls.
Pics of Brewski most recent de-pantsing are now posted at brewskisbarebum.edu
Some of them are a little iffy, as he was rolling around trying to get away and all we got was a pic of his Pujols. Next time I won’t zoom in so close ….
I’m never going to be able to hear his name on Sportscenter without thinking of this thread again.
Might brain bleach help?
This reminds me of watching bull riding late one night — one of the bulls was named “My Wife” and it was very funny listening to the announcers …
“And next up is My Wife….” “oh a buck off, the cowboy just could stay on My Wife…”
It’s not just you Starfish. I get a smirk every morning watching SportsCenter when they talk about the league home run leader Pujols.

It’s just a youtube vid, nothing destructive!
Has your computer caught the swine flu?

That’s hysterical! I’d have died a thousand deaths! Of course, my purse is not where I would keep one of those.

Arthur, I just pictured your avatar self doing that and giggled!
Here! I’m here! Late, and having been absent for a few days, but bearing a situationally appropriate joke (long but makes me smile)!
A young, very devout and scholarly man decides to become a monk and join a monastery in the country (religion not specified, but assumptions can be made).
This particular monastery is devoted to the copying and distribution of important religious scrolls and texts. When the man arrives at the monastery, the head monk takes him on a tour. As they’re walking among the work tables, the young man observes, “Father, are these men copying from copies?”
“Why yes, they are. We must preserve the originals as best we can,” the old monk replies.
“Do you check them occasionally against the originals, just to avoid error?” the young man asks.
“No, we don’t,” the old monk says with surprise, “But that’s a good idea!”.
He immediately rushes off to the vaults to have a look at the original documents, leaving the young man at the door of the vault. After a few minutes, the young man hears a loud noise from inside the vault, and goes in to make sure everything is okay. He finds the old monk banging his head on the wall, with tears streaming down his now-red face. “Father! Whatever is wrong?” the young man asks.
“Celebrate. The word was celebrate…”
I’ve heard that one before, but I still lol’d.
Oh, yay! At least someone did.
At least someone was still around to… Hehe!
I’m not the only one, just the fastest poster.
I suppose so.
Well, hello and *squeeze* to everyone still around!

Nope, they say that he is too old for the technology of the thirties.
Wow! Can you really be that stupid?
No I can’t be, but he can.
Who can? Can can!
Oh Leila, hasn’t failblog taught us that yes, people are that stupid.

My little girl started kindergarten today.
I don’t know where the time has gone.
Did you cry? I cried when my little girls started kindergarten.
My eyes leaked a little, yes. I was quite pleased that I didn’t wind up sobbing. She looked so cute with her great big backpack on her little tiny back.
Well…just remember this: You’re the luckiest person in the world.
*squeeze*
It’s actually not an issue of stupidity. Anyone could make a mistake like that. It’s hilarious because of the way it indicates the silliness of the Catholic Church.
A wee bit too much of the sacramental wine. Other than that, a blessing WIN! Some of the crowd will mysteriously want to become Cher and wonder why, though….
If that had been a metal gripped mike this cardinal fail would’ve had a capital punishment.
yup, got ya covered ^^
I thought this was cute:
A little boy was waiting for his mother to come out of the grocery store. As he waited, he was approached by a man who asked, “Son, can you tell me where the Post Office is?”
The little boy replied, “Sure! Just go straight down this street a coupla blocks and turn to your right.”
The man thanked the boy kindly and said, “I’m the new pastor in town. I’d like for you to come to church on Sunday. I’ll show you how to get to Heaven.”
The little boy replied with a chuckle. “Awww, come on… you don’t even know the way to the Post Office.”
Sounds like something I would have said.
lol, that is cute!
Four Catholic ladies are having coffee together. The first one tells her friends, “My son is a priest. When he walks into a room, everyone calls him ‘Father’. The second Catholic woman chirps, “My son is a bishop. Whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Your Grace’.” The third Catholic woman says smugly, “My son is a cardinal. Whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Your Eminence’.” The fourth Catholic woman sips her coffee in silence. The first three women give her this subtle “Well…?” She replies, “My son is a gorgeous, 6′2″, hard-bodied stripper… Whenever he walks into a room, people say, ‘Oh my God…’.”
….and “Take It Off”!!!!!
Did you guys see that Les Paul died? Honestly, I thought he died years ago. What a fantastic contributor to the rock world.

yes, i ust saw that. also, the key on my keyboard sticks, and i’m not usually all that inclined to go back and fix it ust to pacify typo nazi’s.
Also also, I have no idea what happened in this fail.
The cardinal tried to use a microphone for his sprinkler system instead of his asbergers.
We just had a company-wide email about it. Being in the music business, that’s big news here. The father of the electric guitar.
Amazingly his name hasn’t made it to flymetothetomb yet. I remember talking to someone about him a few months ago, while out at a bar. She mentioned that he still went out and played fairly often, even at his age.
Wonder what his best pick-up line was?
“I’ll rock your world”
He probably had his own line of pick ups, as the inventor of the electric guitar.
I don’t know who Les Paul is but may God rest his soul.
Google the name. You may not know who he is, but you definitely appreciate his work, probably every day.

How’s The Mighty Dragon? Feeling well?
Quite well, theng-kew! But classes start in just over a week, so I’m in mourning for the end of my summer. And yourself?
Had a great vacation, only to be welcomed home with much work. But it’s ok, I’m doing good. Did you check for Brits in need of an US Shakespeare expert?
Ooof, a double take down! I can’t complain AE. Are you adjusting well after your travels?
My tan is already gone (almost) and vacation was more expensive than I thought… But hey, I’m relaxed and feel good, thank you. If you and Dragon were on MySpace you could see some photos (some of them even reveil my face).
Can you link or email me the page? I’m not on Myspace, but it might let me see them anyway. Get a facebook page…several of us are on there!
*un-reveils Arthur’s face*
I have blocked the access for non-friends, sorry. I thought that’s better, considering I frequently mention it here and don’t want trolls to see the pages.
Oh, maybe I could email the page. Just dunno how…
If you don’t mind, I can show the photos to the Dragon tonight.
I mean, I can capture the page as a PDF and mail that to her.
Sure! Thank you!
*squeeze*
Perfect!
Oh, that would be awesome.
*fluffysqueeze!*
Can I see too? Please please please?
PS I need to share some China photos. They aren’t that interesting, to be honest, but I can pick a handful to share.
Natch!
As I said, Brewski, come to MySpace. Free & fun, meet other FBers and share your completely uninteresting photos from CHINA. Of course you can’t expect to compete against Heidelberg, the No. 1 city in the world…
Ooo Brewski! Wanna be my friend?? Can I get your email address from Dragon?
Just to clarify: Friends = People I know from FB who have an account on MySpace. You know that I’m happy to consider you a friend!
Hee! That would be GREAT fluffy!
*snork*
I knew that. *hug*
I saw them, Arthur, and think you must have had a fantastic time.

Btw, just saw the pics and it looked like lots of fun!
And for everyone else, ARTHUR ELD IS SEXY!!!!
I had to do it, I just had to!
Html fail!
Thank you!
All I’ve seen are his sexy knuckles…
I don’t have to see what Arthur looks like to know that he’s damned sexy.
*SQUEEZEagain*
Avis has the Alchemist Stone?
No harm done, they both have the same effect…
The church is making cigarettes now?
Holy smokes!
New Testament cigarettes!
I smoke ‘em.
He smokes ‘em. *points upwards*
The church has been blowin’ smoke for centuries.

Good luck Michael! If your story is good you’ll win the kindle!
I hear they are publishing that fail as an e-book.
Too bad I don’t have a Kindle.
(Not really, I love books!)
Oh, you don’t know how many times we pointed out BMW wins while you were away! And, a few of us may have worked a few BMW win puns into our own comments.
I think I missed that. Which fail is it?

*crosses fingers for Michael*
Oh! I hope he wins!
Is Michael the one that had the dying grandmother and the negative equity in the Jeep?
i dont get it can someone explain?
I can’t see it, so can you tell me what’s in the video?
it’s a priest using a microphone to share out some incense
and the moderator says that the priest [name] is to old for the technics of the 30’s
Near a tree by a river
there’s a hole in the ground
where an old man of Arun
goes around and around.
Livin’ in a van down by the river?
Livin’ in the river…can’t afford a van.
Kershaw he does.
Well, I’m off for the weekend. Fambly reunion & all. Have a fabulous weekend!
*squeezes all failfriends*
*Squeeze*
Bye Lurk! Hopefully you’ll know everyone who shows up.
cya, divina
Be safe Lurk lurk.
Did he just Baptise the microphone?
The holy hand-mike, he made.
Hello is anyone here.
Nope, just us squirrels..
… and shadows.
And… Qwazzes?
And Emperors/Clerics/Pirates.
And the undead.
And the undead needs a shower LOL
And superheroes with viruses.
Whats a cleric? EMP
Um, a Holy service man, but in this case one without emotion. From the movie Equilibrium.
Qwaz is plural.
Amazing. I am totally beside myself right now.
You kill me sometimes Qwaz.LMAO
I promise it’s not me. It’s the other Qwaz!

Guys Mal needs our support, he has had a rough day one at work.

With you brother, together we stand and we will never fall!
This might be one of the funniest fails on this blog ever. I don’t understand why it doesn’t have a perfect five star rating.
Because we use thumbs.
No Qwaz we use tools.
Must be the trolls.
Nobody expects the Spanish inquisiton..
Help, please.
Mainly:
I got a virus named RelevantKnowledge
Said it came with DVD player software but I never downloaded DVD software.
In the process of scanning right now.
May have a way to kill the virus.
Any additional information would be helpful.
Hurry! It is killing my side of the FailBlog as we speak!
German: “Pater Bakterius ist einfach zu alt für die Technik der … dreißiger Jahre.”
Translation: “Father Bakterius is simply too old for the technology … of the thirties.”
Though I have no idea why this stupid show (it’s like failblog on TV) gave him this strange name o_O
He is a Bishop/Archbishop, not a Cardinal.
Bishops wear purple vestments, Cardinals wear red.
Are they taking special ed applications for the clergy now?
You looking to stir up a theological kerfuffle, hm?
There’s a former monger among us.
Yet another Pker here. How are ya?
Wow, is it that time already?
*Looks for lawn chairs*
What time? Lawn chairs?
It’s Desolate Wasteland Time.
It happens this time of night.
Baba O’ Reilly.
♪Don’t cry… Don’t raise your eye…♪
*sprawls in lawn chair* Meh. Everybody left early today.
Don’t worry. I brought beer.
Beer? Atomic beer right?
Time for us to hunt for food soon and look for other survivors.
Beer!!!
BTW, good to see you killed that evil virus.
Ah. It’s like everyone died. For once failblog is dead as a doornail. I just hope that freaken zombie guy doesn’t jump out and scare the crap out of me.
Oogah boogah boogah?
Holy sh****!!!…………………
…………..wait??
You’r not AZ?!? WTF!
Sorry forgot TXT stuff is bad
Meh, all of us use WTF.
Your name is very apt, haven’t seen you around here.
AZ ? Is that ZA’s brother.
My bad. Stuck worken an all nighter, a bit brain dead myself.
Not to worry. Nice to see a new face here.
Funny, if your tired enough that smily almost looks a little sadistic. he he.
I’ve actually been around for about 4 months. I just can’t post from work. Everything gets eaten.
Even better!
I’m a long-time lurker on this site too. I justed started posting regularly about a week ago.
Meh. * replaces “justed” for “just” *
Both you InvisiableShadow and Quiet are cool cats.
Welcome.
Oooh! Oooh! 5eags, can I be part of the Cool Cats Club?
You are the leader cool cat Halifax. LOL I am but the security guard.
I like it!
I would like to know more about your country Halifax. I ask a lot of questions though.(?)
Like what? And which one? I’m a both a US and Japanese citizen.
♪Your not alone, I always dream of♪
*Sigh*
You’re,
I didn’t see anything.
What? What was there to not see?
If I told you, then I must have seen it, which I said I didn’t, so that means that there was nothing there that was not there to see. See? :p
Can I have an
please? Somebody…?
“If I told you, then I must have seen it, which I said I didn’t”
If you said you didn’t then obviously you actualy did.
“so that means that there was nothing there that was not there to see. ”
Double negatives? So there was something there to see then..
Of course there was. I’m just trying to confuse everyone.
But I WANTED to SEE!! …Wait…or did I?
*gets a little scared*
*Assumes an invisible shadow must be hiding in the lights*

*Blindly tries to snatch exra “u” back*
U forgot the “t” when you grabbed for the “u”.
Strange? Can’t reply on you’re message below.
Anyway, that last one is because the batteries are dying on my wireless keyboard. I am a bad speller, but this is not the case.
Wow that’s like the acid trip I never did??? My posts just go whever failblog wants to throw them or something.
Once you reach a particular nesting level it won’t allow you to reply to nest any higher on that thread. You have to click the reply button on the last post that has one.
I think that last post is missing some words somewhere in there.
No, I hate the light. I prowl in the dark corners of Failblog, waiting for unsuspecting trolls.
Uh Oh! I may be in trouble. I am from some strange distant “Chuck Norrisalis Trollalis”decent. I fall victim to the sickness and uncontrollably say things like “Chuck Norris is so tough that behind his beard is another fist!”
One that can’t spell..
*Gasp!*
Restrain him!
*Tackles Quiet*
No, I didn’t tackle you because of spelling. I’m not a maniac!
*Cackles like a maniac*
Right, I’m signing off now. Work’s finished, and the weekend has arrived.
Catcha later Quite/Any other Failblogger who is still here.
Missing some letters, but I don’t see missing words.
*Cries out for two AAA batteries in the middle of the nigt*
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*Muffled*
“later”
My spelling is as bad as yours, Quiet.
Later Quaz.
Brrraaaiinnnsss!!!
Hey you two I.S. and Quiet ummmm let me see how do I put this….
Could you keep it down I am trying to hear the Bishop and what he is saying. Meegwetch(thanks).LOL
Ha Ha! Not sure what the bishop was doing there?? Clueless I guess. 5-E you’re a name I definitely recognize.
You need a avatar brother. Something along the name you carry.
If I remeber what I read in a post by one of the regulars, I should be able to choose my own after a month right? So I should certainly have that option by now. I guess I will have to look around in the account settings and see where I can set it up.
I haven’t really bothered since I can’t post at work which is 28 working days a month. Sad thing is that I RUN MY COMPANIES NETWORK!! The icanhasche…’s tech won’t bother to fix my problem and I know it’s with wordpress.
Go to gravatar then.
And you don’t have to lurk for long to get an avatar. A lot of people ignore comments by people without avatars, so getting an avatar gets you noticed by more people.
Watch out…Word on the street has it that that d*mn manically depressed robot might be around at this hour. It’s depressing isn’t? You can tell can’t you?
He cracks me up the time. He does. I like you sense of humour too.
How miserable…
*gasp*
You didn’t just call Qwaz manically depressed!
Genuine People Personalities. I’m a personality prototype. You can tell, can’t you…?
Marvin: What are you supposed to do if you ARE a manically depressed robot?
Trillian: What are you supposed to do with a manically depressed robot?
Ooh… My diodes…
Awww… Poor diodes. You should probably get that checked…
I have to go to bed now I have a big day Friday. Talk at you fellow failbloggers later, stay well ok. Quiet and Hlifax and Qwaz, and all other too.
Nite to you 5eags!
We should keep this Cool Cats Club going. Maybe spruce it up to Kool Kats Klub, abreviate, then we’ll be the K….wait, nevermind. We’ll stick with CCC or CC.
You know when I sit here working all night I realize that it’s the important questions you need to ask yourself about life. Not just things like if a tree falls with no one around and blah blah… What I wanna know is if you choke a smurf… what color does it turn?? Eh!?! Makes you wonder how “Violet” got her name!! I have a theory! …That girl REALLY pissed off Mum and Dad and one of ‘em let her have it!
I find the more important questions at this time of night to be, “When will these idiots get the hell outta my store?”, and “Why do I have to come back here again tomorrow???”
Tell me honestly, Chan.
When was the last time a genuinely intelligent person walked into your store?
My little brother was here earlier with his friend… But… You have a good point.
Most of them are either idiots or assholes.
I am awaiting moderation. I used a swear word.
Oh my. Should I check back in the morning?
Hehe. No. I just said that my little brother and his friend were in here earlier, and they were intelligent. Then I said moderately unflattering things regarding the others.
Pardon the ignorance, but I have to ask where or what kind of place do you work?
I work in a relatively classy adult shop.
Ah. Your bro is one of your customers? That seems a bit odd.
As long as no one’s a drug dealer, otherwise it could always be a little more odd.
One of his friends was having a birthday dinner at the restaurant next door. He stopped in to say hi and buy a DVD as a gag gift for the friend.
But yeah, my whole family buys from me. We’re not really shy with eachother.
Well that’s cool to have a family where everyone is comfortable around eachother. But then, isn’t that the purpose of a family?
Most definitely.
I don’t know where I’d be if it weren’t for my family. They’re a little crazy right now, and things are a bit weird, but my bro and I are at least bonding over our mutual desire to have nothing to do with it.
Lol.
You gotta have something.
Right now the only thing my sister and I have in common is that we have oddly shaped pinky-toe nails. They look a bit like corn chips, and I’m sure this image is just rolling around in your brain.
*Sigh*
Just now noticed I’m in moderation.
Repost:

Reminds me of my first job. Just remember to do what I did back then……
Tuck yourself into a small corner, crouch down, then begin rocking back and forth while screaming something really crazy over and over.
I promise, they WILL leave.
I know! Go for the classic. Start screaming “
I know! Go for the classic. Start screaming “IT PUTS THE LOTION ON IT’S SKIN, OR ELSE IT GETS THE HOSE AGAIN!!”
*d**N wORDpRESS
That soup didn’t have enough salt in it! I’m going to steal someones battleship if I don’t get my daily sodium allowance!
*Mouth foams*
Hehe! That would be fantastic.
I want to poke someone, and shout “HA! I sink your battleship!!!” and then when they start to act confused or ask what I’m talking about, throw a toddler-in-a-toy-store worthy tantrum screaming that they can’t fool me and I sank their battleship, and they’re cheating.
HA HA HA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROFL!!!!
A very un-quiet moment for Quiet?
I refuse to refer to myself in third person, but I have my loudmouth moments.
One of the few upshots to working as an IT consultant and engineer is that no one questions your methods as long as your work gets positive results.
NO! Put the red peg in because you KNOW I got you!
*Stomps*
Exactly.
That sounds like a pretty wicked way to spend the afternoon. At the mall. Or anywhere.
We think alot alike, you and I. Well, maybe just on things like the current subject.
I like to spend my weekends messing with people in public places. It’s more fun when friends participate but the peeps I hang out with would rather hang in a music store and stare at CDs.
I’d probably say the same, but I honestly do not have any friends I really hang out with, sad as that sounds.
When you’re young and engaged, working and in college, there just isn’t time for friendship!
But I think you’re right. We think a lot alike. Do you often have people just look at you with a puzzled, slightly concerned head-tilt when you make a joke you thought was absolutely hilarious? I find I get that more and more lately…
I reposted Elsa_Mama’s “Practice safe sects” joke on my myspace, (Which I constantly laughed at for at least 4 hours)
No one found it in the least bit hysterical.
I enjoyed it.
Which goes along with the original thought.
I guess I’m out of here for now. L8r any who may remain.
Good night! *Squeeze!*
Night! It was fun talkin with you, I hope you’ll post more often.
Not to piss on anyone’s Cheerios, but that’s not a cardinal. Cardinals wear red, not rose. So all of your puns Fail. Failblog fail.
We can’t joke about something that’s not the fail? That’s… normal. Nevermind.
And now I guess I’m alone.
*Twiddles thumbs*
*Hums*
I wouldn’t last five minutes in Isolation.
I’m sorry to leave you alone…
I got caught up killing time reading a good book.
And I was about to call it Awesome random video time.
…
It’s still awesome random video time.
*Sigh* If only I had sound with which to enjoy your random video… Alas, it makes little sense without audio.
Very true.
I love those guys. Been with them since day one.
If I recall what I have heard, they’re a bit too punky for me. I’m more of an alternative/numetal fan, myself. Disturbed and Tool make up the majority of my playlist.
Perfect Insanity and Schism.
Pain Redefined and Aenema (or Opiate). My two (three) favourite songs.
Uhmm. Whoops. Let’s use this one I didn’t respond to your responses.
Kekeke…. Let’s use this one indeed!
*poke**poke* I SUNK YOUR BATTLESHIP!
Dangit! Curse you A5, why do I choose you every time!?
I win! *Does little victory dance* Woot!
I don’t feel great about my win though. It kind of seems… staged.
You saying I let you win?
Awww… You’re so sweet! You didn’t have to let me win. I’da kicked your robot butt anyway!
Alright, Qwaz, you most delightful of conversationalists, it is now time for me to brave the rain and cold and head home. Have a good night!!
*Squeezes for Qwaz (and anyone else still around…)*
Alright, I was about to call it quits myself.
*Squeezes for Chan (And her imaginary friends)
Alright, I was about to call it quits myself.
*Squeezes for Chan (And her 1maginary friends)
Pffffft. Sure. Okay.
it’s not a cardinal, its a bishop
hahahahahaahaha
the guy in blue takes the mic out of his hand and just leaves lolling, huahuahua
remember…safety 3rd
GERMAN TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ups die Pannenshow is voll geil xD
I guess he can go back to being infallible again.
Awe… I thought that was kind of cute XD
bird is the word
Not as smart as he looks or claims to be huh?!?
Don’t laugh at him, he was only acting in accordance with God’s will.
pfflol
Yay for oddly shaped toes!
All the women in my family have that, but with the second from pinky toe on the left foot.
Things are not nesting properly…
Qwaz, did you reply to your own moderated comment?
