I wonder if any of Watchtower's friends will be taking this class.

Maybe someone else knows about this, but I thought I had heard among all the leadup, that the new Joe, while supposedly making $11K or so as a rodeo cowboy, acutually has a rather wealthy father and a trust fund.

True, or am I confusing the premise of the show with reality because, well, I just really don't care.

If I were to ever let someone do that to me, I would want them to have taken the class first.

Or have been in scouts.

You can use caps all you like, it doesn't change the fact that you are a moron sometimes.

I understood your point. Again, you are wearing blinders. Your "I heart whatever" came from the "I love New York" campaign. (Now pay attention.) People started saying "heart" instead of "love" long before you. Therefore you can't take credit for it. Understand, assfur?

No, assscarf. The difference is not spelling when you say you have invented a term. Lesbionic. Lesbianic. Same shit. Same term. Same usage. Different spelling (so, who cares?). You are looking for distinctions in an effort to make yourself not look as stupid as you are and it's not working.

I'm sorry. I don't speak this dialect of Wackadoo, asspump. Can someone translate?

No matter what you just said, you didn't make up the term and you didn't popularize it.

Good thing you hedged, dearest paigow, because, like the person who originally declared that the board would "mostly agree that [he] was mainly correct," you are mistaken.

I hope to disabuse you of the notion that you started the "heart-as-verb" trend with the following proof: When I was a first-year student in COLLEGE (i.e., more moons ago than I care to admit), my boyfriend gave me a card (a Hallmark card for cripes['?] sake) that had on the front "I [picture of heart] you". Oh the inside of the card it said:

I heart you
I have always hearted you
I will always heart you

(how touching, no?). I think, in his case at least, he was using "heart" to mean "am [or grammatically correct tense of "to be"] ambivalent about" -- but who knows.


And as for "unfunny" and "lesbionic" -- both excellent words -- also, been around since my college days (which were of course, over a mere 3 years ago, so I take it all back; yes you may be the pioneer.)

The NY Times had an article on a bondage club at Iowa. BUt since there were no pics, it's really not worth finding and posting the link.

My dearest sister said pretty much the same thing except that she said she didnt like how you dont know what happens to the couple (ie there is no wedding proposal). This misses the point. Joe Money was funny not bc he lied about money, or that threre are golddiggers fighting for him. It was funny bc fox itself made fun of the show and the concept. They wre in on the joke. I guess if I watched Joe Schmo, it would be more akin to something like that. Fox would have done better to package the show as something of its own rather than a sequel. Maybe call it the Hillbilly and the Eurotang.

RIP Elliott Smith

"Elliott Smith, a singer-songwriter whose dark, introspective songs won him critical acclaim and an Academy Award nomination, has apparently committed suicide, his publicist and coroner's officials said Wednesday. He was 34.

Smith was found by his live-in girlfriend Tuesday, Los Angeles County Coroner Records Supervisor Marsha Grigsby told AP Radio.

He sustained a single stab wound to the chest that appeared to be self-inflicted, she said."

I have made my points and your rebuttals do not rebuke them effectively. I love new york. THis makes it possible for me to think I coined "I heart" bc I never heard it before. bc nobody ever said "I heart new york" bc the camapaing wanst "I heart new york". It was "I love new york". I would ask you how you are not getting this but you would probably compose another eitghteen inch post. At least the board can thank me that I have gotten you off your NFHesque Yankee touting posts.

lesbianic. lesbionic. different words bc different letters. and lesbionic is extra differnet bc bionic is in htere so it sublimially makes you think of the bionic lesbian. even more different.

and by the way, it is okay to admit you are wrong. are you really that stubborn and childish?

Just for Coltrane

For informational purposes only...


One of your girls has a bf.
Onlookers were buzzing that someone who looked an awfully lot like the multi-media mega-rich 17-year-old was sipping beer at a Columbia University football game on Saturday.
“Ashley Olsen is supposedly <A TITLE="Click for more information about dating" STYLE="background-color: #f0f000; " HREF="http://search.targetwords.com/u.search?x=5977|1||||dating|AA1VDw">dating</A> a member of the football team and was here to see him play,” says a source who was there. “I can’t tell Ashley from (her identical twin) Mary-Kate, but everyone was saying it was Ashley,” says the source, who adds that the young woman in question didn’t have her own drink. “She was drinking from other people’s beer and sort of trying to cover it up so people who were watching couldn’t see that well,” says the source. “But she wasn’t drunk. She was just having fun.”
But Olsen’s rep insists that the beer-sipping cutie wasn’t Ashley and adds that the star was in Los Angeles on Saturday.

I just cannot STAND this kind of misinformation! When will people get it straight that Mary-Kate and Ashley are NOT identical twins?!

Tang is not my word. Euro is not my word. However, I am the first person I know of that said eurotang. It is subjective. This does not mean that it has not been said befoer. Just that it is original to me. Bc I made it up. Even if it already existed, since I didnnt know about it. Much how COlumbus "discovered" america.
