POLL: the final step before ninth_wave reveals all!

Awww don't frown Miss M. I should specify who I'm talking to.

This one about your (what-you-said-here). Did you think I didn't see that?

I purposely waited until I knew you saw that before I deleted it.
edit- confused yet?

quote:

And this one about your (...). Did you think I didn't see that?

YOUR WHAT??? You two are terrible

Oh what tangled webs we weave...

I know Ninth.

Miss M, I filled in the blank... get your mind outa the gutter!

edit- Oh I love it!!! Tell me more Ninth... please?

Sure? This can get pretty convoluted. Right Miss M?

Well really I Am confused and am just playing along with it anyways. LOL
Had ya fooled huh? You think my dingy self is actually following all this?

My mind is always in the gutter
Especially since this thread started...

You'd think I would feel like a third wheel but I don't

Good! Because you shouldn't Miss M.
You're the reason we're here, I do believe...

edit- I know Miss M's mind is in the gutter and
Ninth and me are terrible.

To follow it, you actually have to go back and reconstruct the deletes in your mind, in their proper places, and then 're-read' the flow of thought. That's the only way it will make sense. I just did that to make sure I'm staying straight with what I said and meant. This venue does have its limitations. It's ok if you get lost, I do too. We'll manage.

edit - Miss M, like Miss S. says, you are an essential part of all this, NEVER a third wheel. When you are gone you are sorely missed.

edit/edit - I would never put this thread on email. Are you kidding!

quote:

I know Miss M's mind is in the gutter and
Ninth and me are terrible.

Right you are Miss S! And it wouldn't be the same without you two.

Poor Choo is gonna be up to his ears in emails again when he logs on

DARN EDIT--Ninth, I'm almost always lost but I don't care anymore

I was just going to go edit and say "You'll keep me straight, won't ya Ninth?"

I AM with ya.

Well guys, gonna sign off now, see you in the morning. I hope kbalona has another 'good morning' picture for us!

Miss S, I'll be doing some shopping tomorrow, more BigCrumbs for both of us

Ninth, for God sake at least send her a picture of your eyes

'Night

Sweet dreams Miss M.

All 1000 of them? Good night Miss M.

I won't let you wander too far astray, not for long.

Oh, you'll know alright.

(can't remember your delete, I wanted to answer it too)(I remember now, about emails to Choo, not to worry, he's a friend)
edit - go ahead I know what you said.

I know you're only a thought away.
Anticipation... I'm sure I will.

Does that mean all the deletes don't really get deleted? Answer to my own question: the delete has to happen before the email goes out.

I forget a lot of things, but there are some things I just don't forget.

I don't know. There were no deletes on the few I got. I wonder how soon the email goes out. Doesn't matter. I've wondered if the edits make a new email. Poor Choo!

edit- Me too, about forgetfulness and some things are just unforgettable.

edit/edit- You'll tell me when you're tired?

Sorry it took so long to get back to the thread, but got a call from daughter about tomorrows chaufeurring requirements. Now I really am wiped, so many late night chatting sessions catch up with you. It seems we are the last ones up. Such night owls, but I'm running down so will sign off for now. Sweeet cookie dreams, ok.

I think it's wonderful the time ya'll spend together!!

We are, aren't we... oh yes we are.

See you in sweet cookie dreams.

Well good viewers, so completes another exciting episode of "Life, it's all a bunch of electrons" brought to you by the US Auctiva community group with guest apperances from across the pond in blighty.

Fear not normal, sorry abnormal service will resume when the cast have had a chance to recharge, tune in later for answers to :-

Does ninth have a snake or is it a fidgety hose ?
What do you get if you cross a spider with a fly ?
Are hot cross buns really that hairy ?
Why are pretzels so hazardous to your toes ?
And will the snow fairy appear to kablona ?


These may get answered and many more confusing issues raised (and thank goodness edits don't create extra mails) in the next exciting episode, same channel, soon . . . .

Oh Choo....where's my kleenex

Good morning & good evening..

Since kbalona didn't give us a morning pic today, I'll try..



Too gruesome for the morning????

Morning Ms M,

Your piccy works here, glad I haven't got a cute little fiend like him

Couldn't resist advertisng the next episode it was so quiet after wading through all last nights episode.

I am amazed any of you can crawl out of bed this morning.

Not only this morning Choo, but ANY morning

It's not easy either...had to hit the snooze button about 4 times, then the dogs always start barking to be fed *sigh* Even when I have a day off I can't sleep in

How are you today?

So there's kbalona with our morning pic!
Better late than never

Hi Ms M, I'm fine especially as I don't have any pets, as a kid yes but got more sense now I'm the one to look after them.

I will always make a fuss of others peoples cats, yep I'm a cat person, wouldn't have one now though.

Trouble with pets are they don't take days off from work because they don't work, they get free food, accomodation, private health care, grooming and transport just like a perpetual teenager and then all of a sudden they are geriatric, no in between

Looks like pic wars have started, next should be something to take on the owl any offers all you with massive picture libraries ?

edit - Thats a cracker of an owl picture

Choo, you are SO right about pets! But I still couldn't live without 'em
Every animal I've ever had was rescued in some way (usually by me personally) which is why I always seem to end up with so many at once...3 dogs! Only wanted one, but oh well! I've had cats too, love cats & dogs. I even had lizards a couple of times, big ones (ninth would be proud of me HA) but I like the furry animals the best

And the way my area is changing so fast I'm glad to have the big dog here...

thunder, lightning, high winds & heavy rain woke me up at 4:00AM.

OK for the record. I do not wear cowboy boots much and when I do only ostrich or snakeskin. Definitely NO cowboy hat.
Ninth, I was working at the pretzel factory till 4 and will do so again today
Wish I would have been home making pretzels though
Well this post has gotten really difficult to follow.
See you all later and have fun!
Edit: Sorry to disillusion our many viewers out there as to my image but keep trying!

Hi kbalona
Hi Taz

When 'those two' are here, it's pretty much ALWAYS difficult to follow...

Hey Taz, I think I would maybe like those hours? At least once in awhile.

Hey guys. 13,000 views!

And still only 11 votes for ninth_wave

So what chance booklady's poll based on our vote/view ratio

I don't know Choo..it might be ok.
248 views and 12 votes ?? We'll see..

Although I had a hard time finding it, it's getting buried.

EDIT--and there's a warning on there not to bump it so don't do it.

Well this is a fine to do, 6 hours since the last post on here, that will not do ladies and gentlemen our viewers will be dissapointed and we cannot have that.

I hope the late shift can do somewhat better !!!


Yes Ms M I saw the note about bumping, however if a poster needs a reply who are we not to assist a fellow seller. Mind you it does appear to be staying high up due little other activity tonight.

Goodnight, from the UK, half past midnight here

Hi ya'll.
It does look quiet around here. I'm not staying but had to come see how you sweet folks are doing today.

quote:

Hey, Miss M, surely "those two" isn't Ninth and me! I know that can't be because our posts make perfectly good sense.

I saw the note on the poll thread about bumping and apologized. That was me and I won't do it again. I can most always find something to say. lol

Ninth had 8 votes last time I looked. I thought that was funny... I mean, what's the point of voting now?

I'm not sure how well I'll help on the late shift tonight. I'll be back at least to say howdy again. That is, if anyone else is here.

Hi Ninth.

I'll be here tonite, at least until 2 AM..
How ya doin Miss S???
Choo, where did you disappear to?

EDIT--Miss S, how do you like my little chicky up above?? And kbalona is threatening him with his owl

Hey Miss M. I just almost missed ya. If it weren't for that crumb thread (thanks Choo! That got really annoying!!!), I'd be gone already.

I'm doing soooo wonderful, if I was any better, I wouldn't be able to stand myself! lol How about you?
I'll be back to visit with you for a little while, after while. Dunno about till 2a.m.

quote:

I'm doing soooo wonderful, if I was any better, I wouldn't be able to stand myself!

Ok so why such a good mood??
Not that it's anything different but...well ok you're a tad more jovial than usual

Hi folks - Yes, what DID happen to this thread today, only one page? Is everyone all worn out or what?

Well we know Taz is, that's understandable, what with all those pretzels he has to make and all. Taz, have you invented any new pretzel shapes? Not talking eh?

I don't know Choo, what DO you get when you cross a spider with a fly? Could be interesting. Hi Miss S, are you listening? How are those cookies coming along? You know how much I love cookies.

Miss M, you don't have any trouble figuring out what 'those two' are saying, not with your x-ray eyes! You started this thread remember? You just might find a few edits to keep you guessing though, don't want to make it too easy for you now do we?

Hi kbalona, nice pic. that's not you after a long night is it?

Sexy Pete where are you? Chasing the leather again? BAD BOY. (too bad Miss M has a hubby, huh?)

Hi ninth~

Yeah wierd day, huh! I was online only a little, on & off, don't know where the others were (except for Taz) And YOU should talk, you didn't put in an appearance either til now

~~Funny, when I say 'those two' everyone knows who I mean
Talk about BAD BOY

You know I always sign on late, being the 'lurker' that I am, according to you. Maybe I'm just afraid I might get a whack if I sign on when you are still feisty. Although I don't think anytime is safe with you Miss X-Ray.

Yeah, I guess we do make spectacles of ourselves at times. but it sure is fun! Huh, Miss S.?

Yeah, I really do think you lurk, ninth
You know you love it when we talk about you..
You're more likely to get a whack late at night, THAT'S when I get fiesty, I think Miss S does too.

And since I'm leaving now for awhile (gotta find that whackin stick and the hose) be prepared later on

Now I'm really in for it.

Why yes, Yes you are... You bad, Bad Boy!

Lost power to half the plant tonight!Darn I was so looking forward to working until 4 AM
No new pretzel shapes yet Ninth. Thinking of a spider web design with a fly stuck in it though.

Hi Taz!!!

Glad you're here! Saw your other posts first & thought maybe you hurt your foot with one of those hefty bags of pretzels & had to go home

Well you know how those lead pretzels are! Everyone hiding tonight or what?
Hopefully someone can get the step up and bookladies polls to the top tomorrow for maintenance.
glad to see Auctiva taking notice of the poll

Yeah, where are 'those two' ?

Steve, I think booklady's poll was a GREAT idea! I think Auctiva might do something about this problem now

I see the boards were a bit crazy last night with crumb spamming as Choo said. Forget the users name but she was just every where posting blatant spam that had nothing to do with anything!
HMMM Come to think of it exactly what is this thread about? No worries it is definitely not spam and Auctiva has stepped in to tell us to stifle.
It would be nice if they had a live chat capability though.

Oh man,
We'd really be in trouble if they had live chat

PS I think Miss S & ninth are off somewhere else?? She was awfully happy earlier

Gee and I have the hose (and a can of Raid) all ready and waiting........

Nah, this isn't spam...just a lot of B.S.

1652 posts and 13135 hits we are flying in the stratosphere here! Now wonder no-one knew other than kbalona has shown up. It would take them a week just to get an inkling of what this INSANITY is all about!
I am so glad I did not have to work until 4 tonight. The left side of my face looks like a hamster hoarding feed and talk about hurting. I feel as though I went 15 rounds with Ali.
EDIT: Do not look know but a Giraffe is lurking about getting ready to rear its head!

A girraffe Taz?? Are you hallucinating from too many pain pills?

No Miss M I am not. Who uses a pop-up giraffe as their icon that is currently posting to the boards?

Yeah, I saw him around...is that what that is? It didn't look like a giraffe to me, I didn't know what it was

I am having SO much trouble with the post now button, I keep getting server not found after waiting forever.....

You guys have fun, please come back in the morning. And Taz I really hope you feel better...Dentists...brrrr..shudder...creep me out!

Morning all! Spotted me did you Taz?

Apologies for being AWOL yesterday folks, I actually had to go in to the office for the day (I usually work from home) and it's not really possible to play on the forum while in there - then by the time I got home I didn't really have time to log on.

You guys can really post when you put your minds to it, it's just taken me ages to catch up! Mind you, having read all the posts, I'm still not sure what is going on!

Susanne, how could you not see it is a giraffe? Watch it closely, I think the expression with the eyebrow is hilarious.

HMM? Mine is going slowly but not timing out? About time for me to call it a night also. figures no-one around!
Edit hey Pete!I liked the Giraffe from the get-go.Surprised Miss M did not pick up on it?

quote:

Are you hallucinating from too many pain pills? Eek

Is this easier to see?

Hey Steve, how goes it with the lovely young lady?

Things are going good Pete. Going to deal with the parent situation this weekend and have them over for dinner and hopefully get their blessing to date their daughter. I am going to feel like a teenager! Excuse me Mrs Mother and Mr father but may I take your daughter out? Funny thing is mom is 2 years younger than me and her father is my age.
Should make for an interesting evening.
How is everything on your side of the pond going?

Did you see the thread Booklady started in "getting started"? "LISTINGS DISAPPEARED POLL " It has gotten some good action so far 14 votes all for new warning system!

Good luck with the parents Steve (who knows, maybe Mum will also take a fancy to you! ).

Yes, I voted on Booklady's thread. Let's see if any good comes of it.

Well I am off to count some sheep. Hold the fort down Pete and see you around the boards.
Methinks this thread is about to give up the ghost!
Twas fun and we surely will have to revive at some future point in time.
Either that or a new FUN poll?

meeeeoooww wow wow

Thanks kbalona I just love your morning pics! You're up either really early or really late, can't tell

I think it will be a 'dead thread' today too... I'm working, I think Taz is working, Miss S and Ninth are MIA (gotta wonder where they are) , and who knows what "you Brits" will be doing with the huge time difference

I'm just stopping in for awhile, running late today

Darn, just have to do something inteeligent, no, could watch the telly, no, to far the other way.

Oh dear what a dilemma, and Taz predicting the wind down of the thread.

And amongst last nights chat it was mentioned about a thread being stifled, this one ?

Or the one whose name must not be mentioned for fear of excommunication

OMG Susanne, you're LATE!!! But I was so careful!!!

Yes Choo it does seem to be slowing, was talking of this thread when I mentioned the STIFLE. But boy it sure does seem they do not want that other thread mentioned.
Edit: BTW what thread did they pull of yours? I saw the mention in the poll.

No idea what THAT meant Choo (and Pete!)
'Youse guys' are hilarious

I had to come back to tell Miss S and Ninth (if we ever see them again)....I just got COOKIES in the mail from my friend in Oregon...now what do ya s'pose THAT means??????

~I'm serious, I really did get them

Not surprised---Taz & me with our ESP

Hiya Taz, you working today too? Geez I gotta get dressed but I always have to come back here for a smile

Right, I have to go and eat, and play with my son, so tara all, and chat later. have a nice evening y'all!

Yes Miss M, work calls me also. With our Miss S and Ninth being missing it is almost like Friends without Joey!
How YOU doin?

Well Taz I saw booklady's poll was doing quite well on views, but only 10% had voted.

So I created a new thread on the same board with an 'attention' grabbing title to get recent new starters who had been blown away on eBay without warning to vote. Within an hour the whole thread was vaporised, no warning no comments so I left my own comment on booklady's thread.

At least one of this epic-threader group saw it but it was a shorter appearance than the snow fairy.

Shocked a few people because it was thought that only eBay did that sought of thing

quote:

almost like Friends without Joey!

Taz, how could you lower the tone of this thread using the 'Fre***' word my impressions of your character have been seriously wrecked

I have seen a couple posts disappear without warning.IMHO this really gives Auctiva a

Most notably was the "What color is Auctiva" thread is Suggestions started by a Auctiva employee who I have seen no posts from since?
Would be nice if the 2 threads work there way to the top for maintenance tonight. You know which other one

quote:

the one whose name must not be mentioned for fear of excommunication

Actually it does appear as though Auctiva is taking some notice to our suggestions/gripes
Guess the old adage, if you stir a kettle of fish long enough it will stink, is true.
EDIT:Choo ex-fiancee was a Fre**** nut. I do not watch such drivel usually.

Phew, !

Hi Taz, getting hot on booklady's thread, , hellooo anyone there, amazing I'm up late for a change and no one around

Just carry on typing to myself then . . . bye

Where the BLANK is everybody??????

Hi all, I'm here! Well, only for a few minutes, have to go out, but will be back later.

Hi Pete!
Too bad you won't be here long...your 'later' is our 'middle of the night'

PS..I still don't recognise that avatar as a giraffe, but I always thought the little eyebrow thing was SO cute

Hey girl, how you doin'?

You can't see it's a giraffe? It's looking straight at you, ears out to the side. Did you see the larger version I posted a page or two back?

Coo look, I'm a Specialist!

Hi guys the posts are rather hot tonight! Of course I did have to add some tinder to stoke the flames

Hooray, Pete's a giraffe specialist, I recognised it as a giraffe (wow Choo's observant) but I did not see the wink until it was shown larger,must get stronger glasses if I am to continue on a high resolution monitor.

Hi Taz, something's got to give soon, the flack is intensifying and the outburst you fired back in Auctiva's defence was certainly justified but unfortunately angry ordinary people are going to take it out on anyone connected with the current issues. They may not be able to understand the two companies are seperate and certainly have no idea how all these lumps of e-commerce software hangs together. And why should they, they don't expect to understand how M$ Word works under the bonnet to write a letter.

By warning new clients at least Auctiva can distance themselves more from eBay's tendancy towards long term self destruction.

edit - recently I saw a comment in an online trade mag from a PayPal insider that they were told they should distance themselves from their eBay parent this year, sounds ominous, if true

Good morning, another fine pic, you really up at 5am it must still be extremely dark over there ?

edit - words unjumbled to make a sentence, wheres my brain scuttled off too

lol...the clock must be on a different timezone. It was about 8:00 AM when I posted. However, I do get up at 5:30-5:45 AM.

Thought you were keen or far west USA with that time your last post was timed at 7:10 the mail notifications normally have the actual posted time whereas looking at the board I see UK time.

Perhaps your timezone is running slow, or just sliding westwards, is the scenery outside your wundow the same as yesterday ?

'Morning everyone,
kbalona---GREAT pic I love this one. EWWW....getting up at 5 AM...gives me the heebie jeebies. I did it for years and will NEVER do it again. I'm more used to going to bed at 5 AM Never been much of a morning person, yuck. This timestamp will say 7 something but it's actually 9 something. EDIT-ok so it took me a little while to type this .. lol. I'm 2 hours ahead of the timestamp.

Pete...Still around? I've only seen giraffes in the zoo (city girl, remember) so it still doesn't look like one to me..now if I could see the long neck and spots that would be a different story. Not to say I think they're walking around free outside in the UK but you get my drift...I still like it tho..kinda looks like you (the eyebrow part I mean)

Choo-Whenever I've seen that you have posted (middle of the night to me) when I get up, the first thing I do is get the kleenex box. You've really got to stop making me laugh so much so early in the morning Giraffe specialist???? LMAO!!!! Methinks your mind works in mysterious ways

And

- "recently I saw a comment in an online trade mag from a PayPal insider that they were told they should distance themselves from their eBay parent this year, sounds ominous, if true "

I also think it makes sense..sounds smart to me. I've had alot of problems with PP since ebay bought them, nothing major but enough to notice. Never had any problems at all before that.

Is anyone still here or am I talking to myself again/

Hello lovely lady, how are you? x x x x

G'mornin giraffe specialist (still laughing over that one)
How you be today?? I'm so happy, off work now til Mon, yay! Funny, I never really want to go to work, but once I get there I'm fine with it, and if I wasn't working I'd be lost without it. Does that make any sense?? I have finally gotten lucky enough to have a job and workplace I love.

Hi Ms M, well at least start the day with a laugh, better for your patients I expect. I always worry about injections especially if they stand you against wall, bare your bum, stand 10 feet away and blindfolded they cry, "ready ?"

Oh geez Choo..LOL!! Luckily I never have to do that!! No thanks

Hey Susanne,

Mud
Soil
Clay
Silt

You don't mind me talking dirty to you, do you?

You forgot 'DIRT'

Pete, you're the pits

That would have given the game away before you got to the punchline

Thanks Choo (I think )

OK, given up on Geoffrey Giraffe for now, this one looks more like me.

Awwww Pete...I really liked that giraffe...the eyebrow thing was SO cute..gonna miss him

Well who knows, he might return one day

Right people, I'm gonna love you and leave you (ah, those were the days ) - it's Friday night, beer and family await, might catch you over the weekend.

TTFN

Oh no, he was a closet mutant Tele-Tubbie all along, arrrrghhh

That's what I say Choo---I want the giraffe back!

Pete--when Taz didn't like my 'blue eye' avatar, I changed it back ...hint hint

Hey all just popping in to say hello before heading out to the dentist for an exam of Mondays work.

I sure can understand people taking things out on the closest related thing, heck sometimes it does not even have to be related just handy.
But the guy I thrashed last night was blatantly lying and it pi**ed me off. As all of you know I say what I mean and mean what I say on here.I like to pull the trigger and keep my finger on it just to be safe. Yeah sometimes it gets me in trouble
So Pete you look like an alien Jelly Belly jelly bean? You poor guy. Gotta agree the giraffe was much better.
BTW Miss M I did see the Godzilla eye in its original size and it looks a lot better full size. Shrunk down it is a Godzilla eye, full size it is... Dare I say it? Will I say it?


Sure I will! Full size it is rather sexy! However nowhere near as alluring as your mystery come hither eyes you currently use.

Awww Taz,
You're always such a sweetie How about these eyes???

Yeah, I miss our spider & fly!

Oh BTW we shoul start a vote to get Pete to ditch the blue blob........

Have we got time for another poll, don't want competition for this thread do we, next stop 100 pages

Nah, we can just put the poll on this thread couldn't we? Everybody's reading it anyway....Should we start it ourselves just to mess with Pete? HA!

Yeah, why not he's not going to be around for a couple of days, serves him right

Ok Choo---you want to do the honors?

I know you'll come up with something funny...oh heck, no pressure there, huh

Honor - honour

Favorite - favourite

Why do we spell things differently? Is that something to do with 'The King's English' ?

I can't believe it's so late...gotta go.
Choo, pls think of something for Pete (I know you can) so he has a nice little 'surprise' next time he logs on

Okay, see what I can do probably needs to be a seperate thread though, have fun at 'needlework'

"Kings English" ?

Last time I looked we had a Queen, she has only been on the throne since since about 1953 poor girl, must have been something she ate

Seems to me that on the trip across the pond to discover new lands quite a few letters were lost from words at sea, not surprisng would have been a long and rough trip in those days.

Due to concerns voiced here about Pete's new avatar and especially while he is offline I have done my duty and kicked off the new poll.

How are you Pete, just pretend you did not read the bit above, and don't worry, just talking about you in your absence

Goodnight all, typing to myself again, lets see you all voting by tomorrow morning

Well Choo, I was talking to you on the 'other' thread...but fine, be that way

I know I know, it's very late where you are!

See you later

Well Choo, I was talking to you on the 'other' thread...but fine, be that way

until tomorrow then, TTFN

Don't MAKE me point my X-Ray eyes at you

Wrong again, just seen Ms M's reply, no wonder I had a restless night

My grovellng, appo loggys to the eyes of Ms M

Look out Ms M, Pete's on the warpath, whatever you do don't accept an ice cream from him

Nope. No ice cream, or honey either.

We might be safe for awhile since he 'seemed' to have left, but I'm still peeking around the corner in case he's lurking

Back & forth, posting on both threads...

Hey we didn't get a pic from kbalona this morning either

Perhaps kablona is wondering who is going to be the next victim

Our poll is certainly attracting some interest, I have a horrible feeling that in views it may overtake booklady's poll thread which is about reality and ours is ....eerrrmm, just a piece of fun.

Oh ours is LOTS of fun, but I have a feeling it's on it's last legs

'Course it IS the weekend, so maybe that's why it's so slow today....

By 'our' poll I mean the one about Pete's revelations, not this one, this is just a bit quiet without Taz (btw, who's avatar and name is so appropriate, the way he lays into unjust posts ) and Shadeaux and no kablona pic.

Do you think there is a life outside of this lounge ? ... ooh, err,

Yeah. I'm scared to post . . . never know what'll happen, with this thread

Oh, and I won't be home tomorrow so don't worry if I don't post - I'm not dead, even if you wish I was

OK you guys, STOP making me laugh so hard my sides hurt!!

Another great pic from kbalona but you're late And BTW, you don't need to be scared of us...Miss S (Shadeaux) on the other hand, scares even me

this is just a bit quiet without Taz (btw, who's avatar and name is so appropriate, the way he lays into unjust posts

Does this mean I am a loose cannon?
I just like to lay things on the line and create a bit of controversy!
OMG I am a BAD person!
OOPS I guess I just have the cojones to post regardless of the consequences!
How do YA like me now!

There's Taz!!

We missed you today...I even had the fuzzy bunnie slippers waitin for ya

You know I like ya..how could I not with the ESP thing we got goin

So what do YOU think of Pete's new avatar (can't wait to hear this, hee hee) Did you vote on the other thread??

Fuzzy bunny slippers without SteelToes are useless to me. A mutant pretzel may attack!
You did not see my post about Pete's Alien Jelly Belly jelly bean avatar?
Of course I voted!

Mutant pretzel, huh? I may never eat pretzels again - are you saying you have to eat them before they eat you?
Yeah I do remember seeing your post about the jelly belly
Anyway here's your slippers, (not strippers, SLIPPERS)

Hi all o' ya'll Sweeties! Did I hear my name? lol Yes, I know I've been MIA. Don't get it in your heads that I haven't been thinking about all of you though.

All I know is I now sure have a whole new perspective on pretzels!! And ice cream... and honey. All this talk of food is making me hungry, with one look at those snowman ice cream cones to quickly alleviate that!

Rest assured, mine was one of the first (three- shhh!) votes to get Pete's giraffe back.

Errm Pete I think you do need therapy, if I am not mistaken your new avatar as of 13th Jan appears to be dragon with hangover vomitting a fireball

Choo, you do speak with such verbose eloquence! Or is it eloquent verbosity?
seriously though.

Hi Shadeaux, more like verbal diahorrea, must have been something I heard earlier

Well Taz, a "loose cannon" I think we are battery of loose canons so no problem there, say what we feel get what we desrve whether we like it or not, a 'bad person', well I'll reserve judgement on that 'til I check with the girls, what you say girls

Couldn't THAT be just about anything... too much for my wee brain to comprehend.

Taz, a bad person??? No way! Anyone who wears fuzzy bunny slippers, even with steel toes, saving us all from mutant pretzels has to be a hero!!


Loose cannon... well, aren't we all when we get riled up and gotta say what we gotta say!?
uhoh, are we just a bunch o' bad apples?

How'd that dinner go? Did it happen yet? Did I miss the details back there somewhere?

Now where did that sweet li'l fly get off to??

Why lurking again as usual Miss S., according to Miss X-ray eyes that is. But you know I can't stay away from YOU.

In fact I've been lurking so much, I've managed to read every post from you inmates since I've been MIA, in ALL the threads by the way.

Even voted the ONE vote to keep that Tele-Tubby freakazoid running around in circles. Can't get much weirder than that. It's "PeterPerfect"! (Stop groaning, I know: I deserve a whack.) Miss M go easy ok?!

Ok, off I go, but you know 'I'll be BAAAAK'. Can only lurk for so long when it comes to you loonies, although I might change my ID to 'The Midnight Skulker'. Watcha think?

We thought your PC must have died keeping away so long, "Midnight Skiver" more like, leaving us to do all the threading

Hey Choo! Well let's just say I've been occupied with other things. But not so much as to not keep up with the ongoing sagas. You all seem to be doing just a-ok on your own. You and Taz have been kicking some serious butt on the other threads. Why I must say, you've done us right proud!

edit - Midnight Skiver? Is that anything like Midnight Skivies?

Yep, life does get in the way of lunacy at times

Some mornings this thread can take an hour or two to digest, certainly got a bloated mailbox in to the bargain.

Thanks, yep, serious butt kicking, when someone 'exposes' themselves here they get no mercy that's for sure, I think Taz is the king where butts are concerned, wouldn't want to be on the end of his pretzel proof bunnies

Just saw your edit, just to confirm whether my comment was a compliment or not :-

A skivvy just works (unskilled/menial work), skiver is skilled in avoiding work !

edit - just tidied up the definitions

A little different meaning over here. Skivvies is a term I picked up in the Navy. It means "men's underwear" ie your shorts! As in:

So, 'Midnight Skivvies' anyone?

Think I'll pass on that, rather take my chances with a mutant pretzel

Time for bed over here, nite all

You BETTER pass!

See you, manana!

I know I am going to regret asking this but I have mislaid my Anglo-American dictionary

quote:

manana

It's Spanish for 'morning'. mañana(mahn-yahn'-a) See you in the morning Choo. Please don't dream of 'shorts'. (at least not MINE!)

Now I just have to wonder, what kind of special ingredients are included in said skivvies.

Is that a rhetorical question? (Bet it is.)(Any good little spider who makes cookies knows all about the special ingredients.)

TR
This good li'l spider's just soarin' around her web, visions of special ingredient cookies dancin' in her head. Didn't I see mention of treatments for that somewhere around here!

I've heard there are treatments available for what seems to ail you, but they are pretty 'potent'. Might have side-effects.

In this vicious neverending circle of tormenting ailments, methinks the dangerous side effects will prove to be quite a relief!

Trouble is, the side-effects studied so far have been known to be highly addicting.

tmba
You mesmerizing li'l fly!

Where did you get my picture, you sneek!
Or is that you?
Look at those big seductive eyes and that come hither look, it has to be you.

I can only say that I searched high and low and waited patiently and here it is.
Oh, my dear, make no mistake, that is You!

If that's me, then I only have eyes for you.(sigh)

Ditto!

Ewwwwww! Is it hot in here, or is it just me?

No, not just you. Quick! It's a state of emergency!
Fling the windows open wide!

We're starting to smoke! Call 911! Where's Miss M ?!! Fire hose!!!

Speed dial! Where's that fire extinguisher??
Danger Will Robinson! Danger! Danger!
Vision is blurring!!

Oh no, you're passing out! Quick, you need mouth to mouth! Not a moment to spare!

Hurry! I feel faint!!
Beam me up Scotty!!!!!!!!!!

Hang on, I'll do my best to save you! It's working, your pulse is improving rapidly, heart is beating faster! Much faster!!
Scotty's gone, he's on a emergency call of his own.(dirty old man anyway!)

Yes! Breathing increasing properly! Your special treatment is working!
Ewwwwwwwwww! Here come the side-effects!!

Dont' need Scotty! You're here...

Oh no, WHAT side-effects?!! Are you in danger?!!

I am!
Help me!!!!!

What are you experiencing?!! Are they bad?!!
