I call dibs. You can have sloppy seconds.

Don't you mean floppy seconds? He's been talking for little else other than his inability to get it up for the last two days. I've taken to referring to him in my mind as "Floppy."

I agree with him completely:

"There were lots of fans, and it was a little scary. To me, sincerely, it was not a good idea to have a time trial at l'Alpe d'Huez. It's over now but a lot of German fans were just disgusting. C'est la vie...

I wish I knew enough about you and your interests to have a snappy retort. Alas, you have failed to distinguish yourself in any respect from other nondescript female posters on this board, so much so that I'm left with mouth agape. Brava!

And every ticket broker makes a mistake at some point in their careers about buying concert tickets for shows geared to a very young audience -- kids can't pay the big bucks. I only made it once.

We hate the festive pizza making friends. They are not at all festive, are rather lazy, and seem quite mean.

We were distressed that the team that lost lost* we liked that team.

*I'm too lazy to deal with spoilers.

Yeah, but it only went head-to-head with one of the Last Comic Standings, I think. And BB is on like every other day, isn't it?

What is Outback Jack?

Does anyone watch Extreme Makeover anymore?

What about "babe"? That could relate to that cute little piggy...

(Apologies in advance to those whose feelings will be hurt by my firm stance on the following: referring to your S.O. as "babe" is like fingernails on a chalkboard. Please cease and desist.)

It depends on whether GWNC actually gives better head than Dan Ackroyd.

Well, then "floppy seconds" doesn't make sense, does it?

And I wouldn't be so floppy if I could get that image of your naked wife out of my head. [shudder]

In politics, I am indifferent what side she may be of (I think I have arguments that will easily convert her to mine. As to religion, a moderate streak will satisfy me. She must believe in god and hate a saint. But as to fortune, the larger stock of that the better. You know my temper and circumstances and will therefore pay special attention to this article in the treaty. Though I run no risk of going to purgatory for my avarice, yet as money is an essential ingredient to happiness in this world--as I have not much of my own and as I am very little calculated to get more either by my address or industry--it must needs be that my wife, if I get one, bring at least a sufficiency to administer to her own extravagancies.

From the new Chernow book.

Ugh! I hate when there is no "close-paren"! I keep waiting and waiting, and to my extreme distraction, it never arrives!!!! Someone, please get a hold of Mr. Hamilton (you can use a psychic medium I suppose) and have him fix his egregious error.

Humph. Some people...

As a nondescript male poster on this board, I would just like to thank you for leaving me out of this.

Perhaps we could have a head-off. Do you think Dan would be into it? It would be for a good cause - ridding the world of onion-infested salads etc.

I wish I could say that I only made mistakes once. But unfortunately, I've read more than one of your posts. No fear, I won't be making that mistake in the future.

Say hi to Sting for me!

He's probably available. If you saw his role in 50 First Dates its pretty certain he has no filter on what he's willing to do. Of all those original SNL guys he's become the biggest whore, when at first he seemed the one with integrity.
