I think we should have a special board for asserting patents on witticisms and clever turns of phrase. The first to post them on that board will have undisputed rights to claim invention. Upon creation of the board, no prior use defense will be allowed --- it's first claimed, first served.

Besides, it's not like we're using the IP board for any other purpose.

I hereby claim "NTTAWWT," "FWIW," "YMMV," and "Timmy." I also invented socking and a method of multi-party communication via sequential publication of topically responsive writings in chronological order on matters of community interest, which I propose to call a "board."

Edited to add: FWIW, I also invented irony. I remember it well: it was an alchemical lab explosion in which, ironically, I was trying to convert leady to goldy.

Wrong Board.

Get a grip man, its over. You have jumped the shark of jumping the shark.

No offence, sts, iyw.

Although, in the abstract, I recognize what you have written as being words from the English language, when I try to read your post, all I can hear in my head is Less saying "Bababooey, bababooey, bababooey . . ."

P.S. None taken, and iw, boc.

Yet I am so often reminded of his statements on irony.

Will poor sexless Ken never learn? He needs a QE makeover but good. He sounds like he's auditioning for American Bandstand circa 1985.

God. Barbie would do a bloated concert roadie first, even if Ken does have tickets strapped to his hand.

Translation: I haven't invented anything

Branch out from diamonds already, willya? At worst, it'll give you another rock to bitch about, and she'll probably still like it anyway. Have you thought about sapphires?

Yes, what a coincidence.

I just did what her friend told me to do. I picked up the phone, dialed a number and said "Give me this, here's my account #." Then she read me a price and I winced a bit. But, upon further consideration, this little piece of goodwill buys me several months of being a slob and not going to social events I'd rather skip (she's very against my policy of skipping weddings and only attending receptions). So, its actually not that bad an investment.

You didn't buy into that De Beers-fueled "you're a bad husband unless you buy your wife a 5 ct. left-hand ring" crap, did you?

Does it matter if his wife bought that crap?

No, Mrs. dL already has binoculars and night vision, all the better to spy on the neighbors.

So she can possibly see what real sex looks like?

Well that's the rub, right? If she thinks that, you're going to suck unless you also buy into it, or pretend that you do, at least, and buy the fucking blood diamonds. The man loses either way.

She's got enough porn for that. Amazing what a high bandwidth connection at home will do...
