fubbleskag, you need to click off the "notification" box before submitting. Go back and edit all your posts that you get topic replies to.

Not Paul, Not Ringo, so it has to be George.

What the lamest excuse you have ever used to break up with someone?

Flubbleskag, you don't have to go back to all your posts to stop notification. In the notification emails you get, simply click on the link that stops you following that thread. It is true - and frustrating to me as well - that you must unclick the notification box of every single post. Insane.

I really love your handle. Does it have any particular significance?

if you could pick any beatle to have died before lennon, who would you have picked?

Lennon had to die first. Instant Karma's gonna get you. Paul will go next. Ringo is timeless, I see him kicking back on a beach somewhere when he's 80, drinking Margarita's and looking at the bikinis over the rims of his shades.

What if Y2k had actually happened, and all computer systems failed? Would you have been prepared?

take off your socks & shoes; paint each of your left toes to resemble the partridge family and each of your right toes to resemble the jacksons; stage a no-holds-barred brawl between the two families brutal enough to make john carpenter blush; take & post pictures of the entire event.

several years ago an australian friend of mine, who was prone to haranguing me in long spaceless freight-trains of made up words, called me it in a fit of gin-soaked rage. it stuck.

i spent that new year's eve sitting atop a small mountain overlooking my smaller hometown waiting for the 59 to become two 0's on the giant flip-number clock of the world, hoping to watch the city wash itself in darkness from tip to tip. i brought a pretty girl and a bottle of strawberry wine for this event - does that qualify as prepared?

HAHAHA :lol: :p
That is one of the funniest things I've heard. I'm putting my money on the Partridge's, as long as Danny is manager. (He would be the short, fat toe on the left foot). He fights dirty :lol:

And yes, that qualifies as prepared.

I loved it too, it just killed me. I was taking a sip of coffee while reading it, and, well, you KNOW what happened to that coffee. My monitor still hasn't forgiven me for the unexpected shower.

i have successfully de-railed this thread; my work here is done

:cool: Okay... what if the Great Derailer Fubbleskag woke up one morning to discover that every key he hit on the keyboard morphed him into an animal with a name that started with the letter he hit? When he got to 's', which might conceivably be 'snake', how would he hit the next key?

never underestimate the power of a snake - if i can convince eve to go against the word of the almighty, i can type another letter on the keyboard.

what if snopes.com one day debunked the entire bible?

Snopes, my favourite urban legends page!

Bush would have one less thing to say at the end of every blinkin' speech he makes, 'God Bless America'. :cool:

What would happen if the world stopped spinning?

I'd spend the end with you
And when the world was through
Then one by one the stars would all go out
Then you and I would simply fly away...


What animal would you like to be reincarnated as?

Ahem, you mean what if I came back as an animal? If I came back as a dog, I'd bite cruel dog owners then run like hell. If I came back as a cat, I'd want to chew a wool sweater just to see what it is they find so tasty about the things (have had Siamese that, for whatever reason, loved to eat little holes in wool sweaters).

What if you had the choice to live forever, would you take it?

of course. anyone who says otherwise is a liar. that's not to say that after several millenia i won't regret it, but it's against human nature to not want to live forever.

what if plants could talk to us?

You mean they don't?

I think I'd hear nothing but "I'm thirsty.", "Oh, what're you trying to do, drown me?", "This pot's too small. My roots are starting to ride up on me.", and "Owww! Don't pick my blossoms!"


Which of your 5 senses would you give up if you had to?
