This is a term that Chandler Bing used in the mid nineties and ALoha just shojld have known better. ALoha is also not the only offender on the use of this term, but he hit my "thianks for playing" saturation button. So I started exploiting this term and I am mostly positibve that I am totally correct that Aloha remains the last nonironic user of this term. If you do not follow this concept, think of how you groan internally when some loser co-worker utterse the word "NOT!" to you at the office. Like "these sandwiches that have been sitting in the conference room since 1pm are delicious! NOT!". See? So it is not I who delcares something dead as young Skippy Coltrane suggests. Rather it is I who does the public service of reminding you that this term is dead. Or stale. Or whatever.

Further, sometimes a word never had a sell by date. Becuase it was never fresh in the first place. Take for example the word "classy". Not to lord old school knowledge over the newbies, but back in the Middle Ages (Infirm). someone named Red Lady (I think it was her but it was someone with about her level of board recognition) said something was classy. Unironically. I did her the public service of coming down on her for using that word. Serious public service- not making a small profit on a ticket to see some Euro Muzak crap live but actually sa=ving her the emabarrassment of saying "classy" in real life, uninronically. Like how Omarosa said taht Heidi wasnt classy. People came down on me for being a snob but I dont think the word "classy" has been uttered unironically on the board since. Futher, I am willing to bet some of you who used to use this word unironically have desisted from doing so. Substituting terms like "wealthy looking" (hi Abba!) in its place. Which is just as classy by the way.

So, you are all welcome
Could this BE anymore unintelligible?

Omarosa has been quoted extensively in crap magazines dissing Ereka for not being classy, and ripping her for living in her mother's basement.

Can paigenius please be attributed to me as a board term so you can turn around and run it into the ground because you don't understand what it means? I guess I can only hope, genius.

Cite to your introduction of the tmer for clarification please. And realize that my running it into the ground is apples to the oranges of whether I am correct in understanding what it means.

Montessoris have in-house positions? D.C. really is overlawyered.

All examples of pure paigenius. We are lucky to have all eight of you.

Serious question. Other than to your coke dealer, have you ever been relevant?

This is a good thought. I honestly cannot recall when I started posting, however. It may not have been until 2001. But, I'm sure we can get some other Old Skooler to step up to the metaphor evaluation plate.

This seems like a great reason to rip on them.

I now have to go elsewhere to find sex toys for my inflatable partners. When you don't please them immediately, they end up dead by Shape Shifter's pool.
To keep them satisfied, you need to go to Pier I and pick up some candles to plug whichever orifices you aren't using.

This inane response brought to you by a weekend viewing of American Wedding. Still unsure as to whether Pieces of April would have been a better choice.
