It's Friday, even if it seems like thursday

[Kool]

All you, 10,000 posting, Salad battling, Bush ripping, Birthday celebrating, Back hurting, Florida hating, Post labor day blue, Surrounded by idiots, Tropical font wanting, Made dumb by IM, Windmill chasing, Graphic Designers!!!

Have a great weekend!!! http://home.comcast.net/~rnick9/eatdrink042.gif

Ok, due to your vagueness, I'm going to have to assume that you've just discovered a third nipple, which would normally be great news, but then you learned that it's non-functional.

My advice: Cheer up! At least you've got something the rest of us only dream of!

lol (but not really out loud) (so really just the "l" part) (but if I used just the "l" you would have no idea what I was saying)

Mynock maybe you should have used a different phrase like...

mh - mildly humorous.
kf - kinda funny.
sa - sorta amusing.
mmgbnl - made me grin but not laugh.
acas - almost cracked a smile.

Personally I think Delete's comment is very funny. Not quite a ROFL, but is a solid LOL.

LMFAO @ JP!!!! I *do* have carpel tunnel but I figure - what the hell, everyones gettin it so I wanted to join in* :p

*kidding of course...LOL
sorry ^^ I'm use to using disclaimers at work alot..haha

Ok listen folks, morea told me I can't take a vacation until I have 1000 posts here. I need 69 more (after this one) to post by friday's end, so just wanted to warn you there'll be an unprecedented flood of pure stupidity coming from moi! Feel free to run for cover if ya feel the need :)

posts aren't SUPPOSED to be stupid?

sorry, everyone

*hangs head in shame and leaves*

I play practical jokes on senior citizens and children because they can't fight back.

I happen to know for a fact that corn cannot type....but they do stalk.

In a similar vein, I have decided to just let the crab grass take over the regular grass. It grows quickly, I don't need to reseed it or fertilize it, and the stuff is drought resistant. When we get a spell without rain, the regular grass turns brown, and the crab grass is just as green as ever. Stupid societal norms! I reject the "system," and I defy "the man!" I will grow crab grass on my lawn, and to heck with "real" grass! Who decides what is "real" grass, and what is a "weed," anyway?

Hmmm. Maybe I need to cut back on the coffee...

[JPnyc]

HAHAHA! WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! VACATION TIME ARRIVETH! **dances around like a blithering idiot**

[morea]

LOL! Great post, Kool!

This whole week has been really odd... four day work weeks will do that to you. If anyone cares to join myself and D-Zine in our quest to see why the heck that is, we plan to propose to our bosses that we work only 4-day weeks until we have the whole thing figured out. I really think that they will support us, considering that it is all in the name of science. :p

[G-Man79]

Well done Sir Kool. A happy Friday to all and to all a great weekend. Now where's my beer!?

[DeleteYourself]

Happy Friday! Great quotes, Kool. (wow, I made it 2 weeks in a row? the world must be getting read to implode.) Woohoo!

It really does feel like a Thursday. How the hell did that happen? Oh well.

:cheers:

[Mynock]

It's Friday! It's Friday! Those are some damn good quotes. Nice job Kool.

[morea]

HAHAHA! WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! VACATION TIME ARRIVETH! **dances around like a blithering idiot**

Not yet Joe, 44 posts left before you go anywhere! ;)

[D-Zine]

WHooo Hooo I made QOTW! :p

Happy Friday everyone and happy vacationing JP!

[JPnyc]

Oy! I'll never make it. Quick, someone start a thread about browsers or the Mets or something. I need a good argument to get steamed over.

[JPnyc]

Also "How the Neutral Zone Trap Ruined Hockey" would be a good one. That's usually a barn burner.

[Neballer]

Thank God it's Fri/payday.
I don't know about any of the rest of you but this 4 day week has just dragged.
Anyway it doesn't really matter, because IT FRI-PANCAKING-DAY! Now, who needs a drink.
:D

[morea]

Neballer - I'm with you. This week has gone by in slow motion!

Joe, Firefox is WAY better than IE. :p
Does that help?

[Neballer]

I think it might have something to do with the amount of brain cells lost on that extra day of a 3-day weekend. Or at least that is my hypothosis.

[keith1]

!YADIRF YPPAH

LMAO @ The Black Knight's comment the best, that was pretty much a standup comedy bit.

[JPnyc]

Firefox is the bane of internet existence. Like everything slozilla builds, it's a memory pig! And the NJ Devils ruined the game of hockey! They're responsible for the lost fans!

[Mynock]

Firefox isn't owned by Bill Gates, so by using it I'm fighting THE MAN!

[morea]

I don't know TOO much about hockey... but I have seen folks toss a squid onto the ice during the playoffs. What's that all about?

The suckers stick right to the ice and hang on. It's pretty funny. :D

[JPnyc]

Fighting ya self is more like it. I have it on all my PCs because I need to check our sites in it. That's the only time it gets opened though. Takes several months just to open and initialize the program here on my work pc.

[Mynock]

Welcome cherry picking into the NHL! Offense if the NHL, that's something new.

[morea]

I dunno, aren't there more security problems with IE than with Firefox?

[Mynock]

40 more to go, but isn't Firefox better for conforming to w3c conventions?

[Mynock]

oh wait, am I suppose to be arguing for or against the two line pass? Once I know which side you are taking the argument might go better, once we are on opposite sides.

[morea]

^ Lol ^

It's a Detroit thing and it's an octopus. :)

Quoted from http://www.kidzworld.com/site/p1909.htm

Octopus On Ice
For nearly 50 years, hockey fans in Detroit have been throwing octopi on to the ice after a big win by the Red Wings. This started on April 15, 1952 during the Red Wings' Stanley Cup run. Two brothers, Pete and Jerry Cusimano, who owned a fish shop in Detroit threw an octopus on the ice during a game in Detroit. Each tentacle of the octopus was symbolic of a win in the playoffs. Back then, the NHL had just six teams and eight wins (two best-of-seven series) were needed to win the Stanley Cup. The largest octopus to be thrown on the ice was a 50 pounder in 1996. The creature was proundly displayed on the hood of the Zamboni while the ice at the Joe Louis Arena was being cleaned between periods.

[morea]

You know what? I bet the reason they did it here was because Detroit is (ok, WAS) our parent team!

Detroit Red Wings -> Adirondack Red Wings. They moved away a couple years ago and we got an IHL team... I haven't been to a game since!

[Neballer]

Firefox is the bane of internet existence. Like everything slozilla builds, it's a memory pig! And the NJ Devils ruined the game of hockey! They're responsible for the lost fans!

What browser do you use then?
And everything from NJ sucks. :D

[JPnyc]

Yeah that's a detroit redwings thing only. Lord only knows where the heck that came from. Tossing dead cephalopods onto a skating rink's ice. Gee, what a quaint and interesting custom. NOT!.

[JPnyc]

How do ya know I use ANY browser, eh?




**cough, http://www.maxthon.com/ cough**

[morea]

"Cephalopod" literally means "head-foot" because that's all that class of shell-less mollusks resembles.

Besides the octopus and the squid, the nautilus is also a cephalopod.

http://www-biol.paisley.ac.uk/biomedia/graphics/jpegs/nautilus.jpg
I learned that in my marine biology class. :D

Oh, and Joe doesn't use a browser. He is connected to the internet like the people in the matrix.

[keith1]

Just thought I'd share this

[JPnyc]

Yep, correct on all counts. The cuttlefish is also a cephalopod, and yep, it means head foot just like gastroped means stomach foot. And that's all the time we have for this week kids, this is Mr. Science saying "Bye bye, and see you all next week!".

[morea]

:eek: That's sort of... um, obscene, idd'n it?

lol

[Mynock]

You still have 37 posts left you can't leave Mr. Science!

[morea]

Gastropods are snails and sea slugs and stuff.

Sea slugs are beautiful!

[morea]

you know what are my favorite though?

Sea Cucumbers! (http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/invertebrates/echinoderm/seacucumber/printout.shtml) Because of evisceration.

http://www.allthesea.com/img/sea-cucumber-01.jpg

[JPnyc]

The hell I can't. I have all day, plus tonight, plus all weekend before I'm technically on vacation. My vacation doesn't start until monday morning! I'll make it with SECONDS to spare!

[morea]

evisceration - the violent expulsion of the gut. In this case, the cuke basically expels a portion of its digestive system (guts) onto the substrate.

[JPnyc]

Also demonstrated in the quaint Japanese custom of seppuku.

[morea]

when a sea cucumber eviscerates itself, any organs it expels can grow back. Weird, huh?

[JPnyc]

Well it's definitely helping to curb my appetite, lets put it that way

[morea]

ooh, I should start a weight loss program! :D

[JPnyc]

The idea isn't new. THere was a diet I heard of a few yrs ago. You could eat whatever you wanted, as much as you wanted, but you had to eat all your meals with naked obese people.

[morea]

Ever hear that expression: "Eat a live toad for breakfast and nothing worse will happen to you for the rest of the day"?

[JPnyc]

Uh, no. Can't say I have LOL. But remember, wherever ya go in life, there ya are.

[keith1]

When in Rome...

[JPnyc]

........wear a hat?

[keith1]

If you can't stand the heat...

[JPnyc]

........get an energy efficient AC?

[keith1]

You can lead a horse to water...

[JPnyc]

........but don't sit under him after he drinks it.

[keith1]

A bird in the bush...

[JPnyc]

.....should damn well stay there. I hate birds.

[morea]

Fools rush in... ;)

[keith1]

If you can find a better car...

[JPnyc]

......to get the best seats!

[JPnyc]

........you're probably in your neighbor's driveway

[morea]

I like these versions better than the originals.

Joe, you should publish a book of Joe-isms. :p

[keith1]

What goes up...

[JPnyc]

......is fulla hot air.

[morea]

Pork....

[keith1]

It's gettin' hot in herrrre...

[keith1]

Pork....
and beans

[JPnyc]

We're deeply disturbed folks

[keith1]

Lucy in the sky...

[morea]

I was looking for "the other white meat"... but "and beans" works equally well.

And of course we're deeply disturbed, that's why we are so "creative" :p

[JPnyc]

........box at Yankee stadium

[Drorain]

hey guys happy friday...got the final hoop to jump thru for the job at inscribe, we'll see how this goes

[JPnyc]

GOOD LUCK! I can tell you that having a job you don't hate is a blessing.

[jimintn]

[Mynock]

[Mynock]

[MD]

Happy Friday All :D Wow and 2 posts in QOTW to boot, I musta been extra funny this week.

[morea]

Less than an hour til I bolt for the door.

Shouldn't have had that 2nd cup of coffee this afternoon... I'll probably end up with some crazy road rage. :D

[JPnyc]

That's my normal state. 'Cept I don't drive here. But I do knock tourists off the sidewalk and into the street.

[MD]

That was you!! :eek: I got hit by a truck delivering bootleg Rod Stewart CD's. I was in traction for 2 months........I'll get you JPnyc, watch your back......

[morea]

Ah, I love the GDF. :D

[Neuro]

Oh the adventures the GDFers lead! You guys are crazy folk!!! LOL!

Happy Friday all! Drink up and Party up!!!

[JPnyc]

Whoops. Sorry bout that. But hey, all angry Noo Yawkas look alike.

[D-Frag]

happy F day everyone. I got offered a job today, so im on sub-contract next week to see if we both like each other, im happy, but sad I didn't get the position at this agency I was interviewing with.... hope you all have a wonderfully safe weekend

[MD]
