View Full Version : Lynn Bodoni
Dear Lynn,
We have never conversed that I can recall, so I wanted to take this time and say hello. As you may or may not know, in the past I have been lucky enough to be greeted by such administrator luminaries as Ed Zotti, Jerry Davis and even our creator, Cecil Adams. So I was thinking that it would really be something if I could add you to the list of notables that have greeted me.
By greet of course, I don’t necessarily mean a” hello how are you” because after all, I know this is the pit. And even though I have never seen you overtly flame anyone, I know that you could probably give each and everyone of us a clinic on just how to hold the verbal acetylene torch. So needless to say, even a passing putdown from you would be extraordinary.
If you can’t find the time or inclination to flame my little gimlet ass, I will most certainly understand. However I think that Mrs. aha would be very disappointed if you didn’t take a moment for a hello and an up yours to both of us.
So thanks in advance and thanks for all your hard work here in the pit. If you ever down my way please come by for a glass of iced tea. Regards to Mr. Bodoni and any little Bodoni’s.
*Just a note to let you know that I this will be my one and final plea for an acknowledgement from you as it is not my intention to harass in anyway.
( kicking back in office chair) ahhh I can see the sig now…
Branded by Bodoni.
Now let’s see where did I put that chocolate……

One of the SDMB administrators has to draw the line, and put this Sucking Need-Hole in his place.
I'm counting on you, Lynn. Let your silence be deafening.
(I'm kidding, aha. But I do hope she doesn't answer. Cuz I'm like that.)

For some reason you forgot to mention the starving, tear-stained, cancer-stricken orphans whose dying wishes are to see this take place.
I'm not convinced the Mrs. aha is a willing participant in all this. [I know you might not be free to speak Mrs. aha--cough once if you're under some sort of duress, twice if you want a SWAT team to storm the building.]

Hey aha, I have been reading your shit for weeks, and I'm sick of it. Why do you think your so special that you need to monopolize the moderators' personalized greetings? I'm mean you already have hellos from Ed and Cecil and I have none. Can you see the inequality here? Hmmmm, can you? Well, damnit, *I* want a hello. I'm not chopped liver! I'm a human being and I deserve a welcome just as much as you do, little man!
So Lynn, if you could find it your heart to greet those who are truly in need of a warm (or flamey) welcome, I'd be forever grateful.

Your'e a real sport aha for being so patient.

Dear Mr. aha
You don't know me but I got your name from the third stall from the left in the mens room at the bus terminal. It said you were a total suck-up which makes us cousins on my fathers side.
I'm not rich but I could steal two chickens from my cousin Clem and send you the feet and maybe the ears if you could find it in your heart to just cuss me out or tell me to kiss your ass or sumthin' so I could say in my sig that you cussed me out or told me to kiss your ass or sumthin'.

Ok VaHermit,
Look billybob, get your high forehead out of your ass and get your own fucking schtick this one is mine comprenday? And if you can get off your sister long enough you can come over here and kiss my ass. By the way, even a sub-moron would know that chickens don't have ears.
There you go enjoy!

Aha... everyone's being mean to you, but I'll give you an "Up Yours"..
Up yours.
Does that make you feel better? Remember, I'm the only person to have claimed to be Cecil's evil twin who knows nothing. THAT would look good in a sig line... "Got an 'Up Yours' from some random shmuck who claimed to be Cecil's evil twin who knows nothing"...
(I'm not REALLY Cecil's evil twin... as far as I know, the only relation I have to him is that we're both carbon-based... unless he isn't carbon-based...)

I was kinda hoping aha would get his welcome (despite what I said earllier in the thread.) So just a lttle bump to keep it from dying out.
I haven't lost all hope either.....
Aha I like you as a poster, bababut I wonder why you need more greetings when you got a greeting from Cecil. Why not stop there? Oh...I get it you trying to get greeted by every administrator and moderator on the board. Is Lynn the only one you haven't recieved a greeting from??

You've had great success in the past, I'll grant you that. However, I don't think your current tactics are going to be successful.
How do you expect to gain the notice of the Queen of the Pit with such mealy-mouthed and polite requests?
C'mon you stupid dope. This is Lynn Fuckin' Bodoni we're talking about!!!
Do you think saying:
"Dear Lynn,
We have never conversed that I can recall, so I wanted to take this time and say hello."
is going to cut it?
NO!
If you wish the attentions of Lynn Bodoni (and the attendant risks and consequences,) then you must prove yourself worthy.
Only as a worthy adversary will you gain the acknowledgement you seek. But beware that the Bodonic one does not destroy you utterly!
Go now and meditate upon what I have said, and decide whether it is best to put aside this foolish and dangerous quest.
Later you shall be visited by the spirits of three moderators. The spirit of Moderators Past, Present and Future. Attend well to what they tell you. You will learn things you shall need if you wish to continue your quest.
I have said all that I am permitted to say. Perhaps I have said to much.
Wait!
What's that?
Oh NO! I DIdn't! Please NO!
OMYGOD!!!!!
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH.............
UncleBeer makes a good point. Lynn was/is my latest attempt to garner a greeting from all moderators or administrators.
I had not anticipated that Lynn Bodoni a fellow texan ( I was born in Port Arthur tx) would ignore a plea from a comrade, so roundly thus far.
In the meantime UncleBeer got booted to the top and went from everyday grunt like myself to someone I now know that I will shamelessly suck up to. My appeal to him can't be far down the road.
In the interium Arnold Winkelried over in comments was kind enough to greet me.
I still have not given up hope that lynn (and now UncleBeer) will welcome me to the pit or maybe just bitch me out good before it's over.
Until then I remain their humble servant.
UncleBeer makes a good point. Lynn was/is my latest attempt to garner a greeting from all moderators or administrators.
Dude, i'm not UncleBeer. Unclebeer did not make a point, he just said "No." Your so obcessed with moderators, you mistook me for one of them. And now I can't get a greeting!

Good chocolate always gets my attention, when it's in my hands.
May I suggest a new sig line?
"Not personally greeted, but solicited for chocolate by fellow Texan and moderator Lynn Bodoni"
Dry..that ain't a bad idea..let's hope I don't have to resort to it.
Lynn Bodoni:
Good chocolate always gets my attention, when it's in my hands.
Uh o....I feel virtuality moving over and reality moving in.
Perhaps with the right snail mail addy I might be able to send some of that delightful chocolate to her highness, unless of course the thought alone will suffice....
If not, in that case it can be arranged... but....certainly that would call for a extra special welcome to the pit..don't ya think?

Ummmm, well, the truth is, my mother had to break me of my habit of soliciting chocolate from complete strangers when I was young. Now that I am no longer under her thumb, I solicit chocolate wherever and whenever I can.

I'm pickier about my chocolate these days, though.
If you're gonna send chocolate, send the good stuff. Or just send small, unmarked bills, and I'll go out and buy my own chocolate.
Oh, and Andros...I don't work in Chicago. I work in Fort Worth. I've only been to Chicago once.
I have a feeling those leftover chocolate bunnies from this past easter won't get it...
I have a feeling those leftover chocolate bunnies from this past easter won't get it...
Jeez, and here I thought you were the sucking up master!
Those aren't leftover chocolate bunnies from this past Easter!
Those are chocolate bunnies that you just bought for NEXT Easter (stealing from Savings and Loans and donations made to orphans, etc., etc.), because you, in your farseeing wisdom, wanted to preemptively announce your reverence, nay, LOVE for Lynn Bodoni by buying her chocolate bunnies 11 MONTHS early, all so she might carelessly throw a semi polite greeting in your (unworthy) direction. :D
Dude...you're on your own with Uncle Beer!
Stay away from Grace! She's mine! :mad: (Unless Shayna marries me, that is.)

Oh well, I still have aha. That is, unless Lynn officially greets him. Then my 10 minutes of signature line fame will be over. ::sob::
Lynn, don't do it. Don't greet aha. Think of my children (when I have them). Imagine their pride when they can point to aha's sig line and say "that's my mama." What's it gonna take? Daily packages of chocolate. I'm in Dallas so it is possible. Crawling on my hands and knees over broken glass? Cleaning your bathrooms? On second thought, greet the bugger. I draw the line at toilets.

And if I'm going to be offered EASTER chocolate, whether this year's leftovers or next year's crop, you have nothing to worry about. Most Easter chocolate is crap.

I love you both. But she changed her sig. You didn't. Change your sig, and I'll be a bigamist. Oh, and the menage offer is still open.
I confess I'm surprised, too, Grace. I expected another post from Shayna before you, so I needed to address her first. (You're what? 2 hours ahead of us? And you're the one who called yourself an infrequent poster.)
Ya know, I think you're stalking me under false pretenses.
I'd be upset, but I've fallen so completely for you already.
You've wiped your feet on the doormat of my heart. I hope you're happy :(
Change your sig. We nerds are grateful for the love of a goddess such as you. ::shamelessly trying to upstage aha's sucking up IN HIS OWN THREAD::
Note that if there's been any new goings on in our various flirtings since noon my time, I'm still a bit unaware. I haven't gone into MPSIMS and IMHO yet. (Honestly, I've been spending too much time there; I'm trying to at least establish a presence in GQ and GD, and a bit in the Pit, too)

Are you asking me to clean your little box? Being a cat owner myself, I could do that.
No. No. No. I must face the inevitable. Aha will eventually change his sig line so it may as well be you who cause the change. I mean, you're Lynn Bodoni after all. A woman of grace, intelligence, and obviously a big pair of cajones since you're able to handle the pit. I can think of no other person who I'd rather bump me from the spot.
*psst, aha. How am I doing at this sucking up thing?* It probably wasn't a good idea to bring up cajones.
Ummmm, well, the truth is, my mother had to break me of my habit of soliciting chocolate from complete strangers when I was young
Lynn,
True story. I used to be a chocolate freak--especially Hershey's Dark Chocolate, but really, all kinds. My mother would hide the candy from my brother and me, whenever she'd leave the house.
HOWEVER, she would not hide the unsweetened chocolate (used for baking, etc). Or the sugar. I found out that if I put a spoonful or two in my mouth and took a bite out of the unsweetened chocolate, the result was more than sufficient for a choco-addict.
Sick, huh?
And it figures that now that I can have chocolate any time I want, I don't want it as much. Life sucks that way.
How do you stand on the issue of cat litter boxes?
I know this question wasn't asked of me, but that's never stopped me from responding before. :D
I don't stand on them. I don't squat over them, either. Unlike the trolls, I'M toilet trained. ;)

I am an infrequent poster. Especially in the pit. Or at least I was until this week. Tonight I'm reading all the boards because I know I'll be up all night. I fell asleep when I got home from work and didn't wake up until almost 8:30 p.m.

Oh, this is great, Grace. WE both answer Lynn's question, not aha.
DRY: "We nerds are grateful for the love of a goddess such as you."
Ahem. I still love you, but you're losing the battle to Shayna. I was hoping a for something a little more...nuturing..to my fragile male ego and tender (oh, so tender) and sensitive self-esteem.
Compare:
DRY: "We nerds are grateful for the love of a goddess such as you."
with
"I would like to thank DRY for voting for me as Prom Queen of IMHO. He is my very favorite poster and I'm strongly thinking of marrying him and dropping my Jewish requirement, because he's such a fine and upstanding human being." -- An original DRY sig (with my sincerest thanks).
I mean, it's kind of like comparing a Shakespearean love sonnet with a dirty limerick, isn't it?
You are a woman of exceptional...GRACE..beauty...intelligence...wit. I know you can do better than that, oh goddess of Guiding Light (speaking of which..can't you find some romantic dialogue to melt my masculine heart with??)
GraceTX
06-02-2000, 02:04 AM
IIRC, your EXACT words are what are printed in Shayna's sig line. So my "dirty limerick" is through no fault of my own. I guess I have failed to inspire you to write any love sonnets on my behalf.
So basically you're gonna have to give me some better material if you want me to put it in the sig line. :p
As mistress of the Pit, I think you know what the appropriate thing to do is...
Welcome GRACE and I to the SDMB, but NOT AHA! :) :)
He's had the welcome of so many other mods and admins, we have not.
He hasn't answered your question about the cat litter boxes. WE HAVE. (I'm not buying that "he's asleep/offline CRAP. If he truly appreciated you, he'd be defending his turf.)
We two, lonely souls, would be so grateful. We'd elope*
and name our first born after you. You'd be invited to our humble abode, and you could eat your weight...nay, the weight of all your earthly posessions, in the finest chocolate available (no crappy easter bunnies).
Do the right thing, oh mistress...nay...GODDESS..of the Pit!
*assuming Grace is able to put me in the proper mood after that horribly hurtful sig :(

Dearest, Grace, my humble apologies:
I confess it was my folly that caused me to merit such an unflattering sig line.
I beg forgiveness:
"O, what men dare do! what men may do! what men daily
do, not knowing what they do!"
--Much Ado about Nothing, Act 4, Scene i
I shall do my best to woo you once again:
"My tongue could never learn sweet smoothing word;
But now thy beauty is proposed my fee,
My proud heart sues, and prompts my tongue to speak."

For kissing, lady, not for such contempt."

"DRY...A good leg will fall; a straight back will stoop; a
black beard will turn white; a curled pate will grow
bald; a fair face will wither; a full eye will wax
hollow: but a good heart...is the sun and the
moon; or, rather, the sun, and not the moon; for it
shines bright and never changes, but keeps his
course truly. If thou would have such a one, take me"

Okay, I think we've hijacked this topic long enough. I don't think he'd appreciate it all that much.
And just so this gets back on topic....
Lynn Bodoni, please post a welcome to my good friend aha. He's in the running for Prom Queen of IMHO (we believe in equal opportunity) and I think an endorsement from you might send him to the top of the race.
Okay, I think we've hijacked this topic long enough. I don't think he'd appreciate it all that much.
Grace!! Don't you GET it?? That's WHY I picked this thread to flirt! To hijack it! (Also to show aha that there are at least two suckups he'd BETTER keep an eye out for!) ;)
And to put one over on your old friend Shayna. She can flirt in Great Debates, huh?? Well, you and I can make goo-goo eyes IN THE PIT!! How do ya like them apples??? HAHAHA :D
Lynn Bodoni, please post a welcome to my good friend aha. He's in the running for Prom Queen of IMHO (we believe in equal opportunity) and I think an endorsement from you might send him to the top of the race.
I will yield to my better (and boy, is she GOOD) half on this one, and also beseech Lynn to welcome Aha (but also US! Dammit, us, too!! Us first!!!) Uh, Where was I?
Lynn, please welcome aha.
However, I must nullify my dear sweet Grace's importunings to endorse him as Prom Queen of IMHO, as I have taken up the cause of the illustrious Shayna. I bade Shayna to bestow, publicly, her affection on me, and she has done so. And I am an honest man:
"Who never promiseth but he means to pay."
--King Henry IV, Part 1, Act 5, scene iv
So, Lynn, while I beseech you to welcome aha, I urge you to endorse SHAYNA as the rightful prom queen of IMHO (you can always make Aha Lord Bastard of the Pit) :)
GraceTX
06-02-2000, 03:54 AM
DRY is right. I retract my petition for Lynn to endorse aha as prom queen. If anyone should receive an official Lynn Bodoni endorsement, it should be Shayna. Aside from the fact that she's my very good friend, I don't think the SDMD needs another divided household. It may work for James Carville and Mary Matalin but I'm not willing to take any chances.
However, I still resectfully request that Lynnwelcome aha.

And you thought *I* was bad. Sheesh! This is the PIT for chrissakes!
Get your smarmy, so-sweet-I-wanna-puke butts into the nearest Motel 6 before someone takes a shotgun and puts you out of our misery. Your inappropriate behaviour in this forum, not to mention your hijacking a perfectly awful suck-up job by what was once the master of all suck-ups, aha, is outrageously unacceptable.
Lynn, I have to apologize for my friends. They must be on drugs, that's all I can think. They'd know better if their minds weren't so freakin' fried.
And aha, the least you could do is make a half-assed effort to provide the woman to whom you're sucking up with the object of her desire. Pssst, I'll give you a hint...
Lynn, oh masterful Queen of The Pit, I hereby offer you the following gift if you will welcome me to your most awesome forum - Your Gift (http://www.godiva.com/godiva_assets/prodimg/32.jpg). I hope it provides you with many, many psychic cyber orgasms.

Listen lady, I don't need to hear your crap. I already apologized so you can take all your mean and hurtful comments and stick 'em up your....well, you know. :D

Lynn doesn't care. We're like this ::Grace holds up two crossed fingers:: She's even invited me over to help her clean the litter box. I mean only a good friend would do that right? Besides, if she gets all the bribes...I mean chocolate from all the people in the pit, she'll need a little help eating it all.
Don't be suggesting them Godivas...we ain't got no Godivas here in my town..this town is so small, we don't have a village idiot so we take turns....I think it is my week too.
Lynn:
My hopes are that I will get a welcoming thread of my own from your goddessness of hell fire. (musing) Just think...a by god thread of my own...the other poor bastards on this board would be soooo jealous..

Did you know Godiva's has a website? They even have online ordering. The miracles of the modern world, you know?!
get a room!

Sorry guys! I know we got a little carried away.
I'll do my best to have no more flirting in the pit. I do solemnly swear to only curse, spit, and hurl nasty barbs at my fellow posters.
Well, excuse us! We were just trying to bring a little sweetness and light into the troll infested and tempestuous BBQ Pit. To share a little of the milk of human kindness, as it were! And we succeeded:
"How far that little candle throws his beams!
So shines a good deed in a naughty world." :p
--Merchant of Venice, Act 5, scene i
I am tempted to apologize, though. Really, I am.

AHEM!
If I may quote my lady:
(In MPSIMS-Monster104's "words you like hearing" thread)
Oh God, I'm cumming!!
I probably shouldn't have said that here.
(In IMHO--Slythe's "Prom Queen of IMHO" thread)
Oh God! I'm cumming!!
Practice makes perfect
All I have to say is:
"This is the very ecstasy of love,
Whose violent property fordoes itself
And leads the will to desperate undertakings
As oft as any passion under heaven
That does afflict our natures"
--Hamlet, Act 2, scene i
OOPS!! WRONG CUE CARD!! :eek: :confused:
Err, what I meant to say is:
As they say in the legal field,
"Res ipsa loquitor"
Shayna, dear, sure sounds to me like you're trying to have an orgasm in every forum, and you're angry that we beat you here! :p

Dry & Grace: a "little" flirting is certainly OK- but, you have hijacked this thread all the way to Libya. And, as long as this is the PIT, and we are here: would you two get rid of those ridiculously long sigs? They take up room & waste bandwith, and are narcissistic as hell.
(mandatory butt kissing) to take the Thread back on the track: I think Lynn is a wonderful Moderator, and much too classy to deign to greet Ahoo.

Listen you little prick, if you're gonna jump in and chastise me for my behavior at least be timely about it. While your reprimand may have been warranted at the time, it isn't now. I apologized for my behavior in the topic YESTERDAY. Read the damn posts before you jump all over someone.
As far as my signature lines goes, I’m keeping it until someone with a little more authority asks me to change or modify it. So unless Ed Zotti raises your posting status from member to moderator you can just BITE ME!

Grace: if you apologized for your flirting, I'm sorry. But I did not see it above. In fact, I posted right after you two's last flirt here. And about the Sig: I don't have to be anyone but a member to ask. Like you said, if you don't want to, I can't make you, but you might have some thought about the other posters here. Hey, they WERE great Sigs, but you guys post a LOT, and we hafta read them over & over & over & over & over & over & over & over......
I'm not attacking you guys, in fact some of your posts have given me quite a chuckle, but lighten up.
Dry & Grace: a "little" flirting is certainly OK- but, you have hijacked this thread all the way to Libya.
But considering we were in the BBQ Pit [aka "Hell" :mad:] to be begin with, Libya's actually an improvement! :)
To be serious for a second, I'll hijack a thread on occasion (who won't?). But I try to at least brings back on track, and a little more likely to hijack a thread that's clearly dying out, or at least slowing down. This one definitely appeared to be slowing down/dying out, so I don't feel too bad about it.
And, as long as this is the PIT, and we are here: would you two get rid of those ridiculously long sigs? They take up room & waste bandwith, and are narcissistic as hell.
I admit--I like my sig. It's a tribute to the two persons on this board that have been the nicest to me. Perhaps if more of you people were nice to me, I wouldn't cling so desparately to my sig. [pit mode on] You know--if more of you LOUSY BASTARDS HAD WELCOMED ME, just like Aha is now trying to get Lynn Bodoni to do!! ::cleverly trying to get back on topic here:: [pit mode off]
Grace: if you apologized for your flirting, I'm sorry. But I did not see it above.
...
I'm not attacking you guys, in fact some of your posts have given me quite a chuckle, but lighten up.
She did apologize, at 9:52 am on June 2 (the post right before Shayna's last post here)
However, I'm pretty sure Grace is joking, and didn't mean that seriously.
However, you, my boy, have pissed ME off big time, you arrogant windbag--I've taken notice of your debating style in Great Debates, and I can pretty much sum up your M.O. as follows:
"He draweth out the thread of his verbosity finer
than the staple of his argument"
--Love's Labor Lost, Act 5, scene i
Actually, I'm kidding. I admire your debating style quite a bit. But then, as they say:
"The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose."
--Merchant of Venice, Act 1, scene iii

Dry; welcome to the SDMB! It is nice to hear someone quote the Bard, and so aptly. You a clearly a scholar & a gentleman.
....now get a room. :D

Your request my dear, aha, has turned into a lover fest. No welcome to you from our dear Lynne. She's too busy laughing her ass off at all the lovers in the Pit
Lynn ingnore all that kissy kissy shit and turn your thoughts towards a welcome/torchin thread that I can call my own.
GraceTX
06-04-2000, 07:56 PM
You know Lynn, seeing how Aha had to sit by and watch his topic get hijacked, I think you should reward him with a welcome. He could've come in here and flamed me up one side and down the other but being the kind, handsome, and intelligent gentleman that he is, he didn't do it.
So I think you should grant him the one little request. What's one teeny tiny greeting? Just think how happy it would make him. Come on Lynn. Would ya do it? Would ya huh? Will you do it now?
How about now?
Please?!

Lynn, as a high-minded, battle-scarred veteran of the SDMB I strongly suggest that you ignore any whimpering importunities from aha that aren't accompanied by quality chocolates. I mean, Godivas to start, then [/i]excellent Belgian chocolates, a few Swiss offerings just for variety and then some assorted samplers just for laughs.
In "value-provided" terms I believe the concept equals out to "earnest money".
It's important to be earnest! Just ask GB Shaw!
::duck, runs::
Besides, it's such a great opportunity to break Hoo-ha in for the daunting task of bribing AlphaGene.
Of course this is the same man who auctioned off his wife, beloved consort and companion in life to Dr. Watson. Alpha will demand...what? Human sacrifice? Tossing a newborn litter of kittens into a volcano? Tossing a case of Asti Spumante into a volcano?!
The mind reels. I can't wait to wait to watch.

just think Lynn, :thunder rumbles: once you say howdy to aha, you can scratch this thread from existence. outta your hair.
...oooooooh, i get it, you sick puppy you. you like this, don't you ;) wow you mods and admins sure do some purty neat things i wudda never thought of... hyuk! :D

Gezz TVeblen don't you ever forget anything? That was so long ago and I am a changed man now.
You know Lynn, seeing how Aha had to sit by and watch his topic get hijacked, I think you should reward him with a welcome.
I've already stated that I believe Lynn should welcome Aha, but I must question your logic here: if everyone who'd ever had a thread hijacked got a welcome, then everyone who'd ever started a thread would be welcomed!
(I've started one thread in all my time here, Shayna's birthday thread, and it got hijacked multiple times. Including by Shayna herself, who, as she always does, flirted. This wouldn't have been so bad, except she wasn't flirting with ME!)
He could've come in here and flamed me up one side and down the other but being the kind, handsome, and intelligent gentleman that he is, he didn't do it.
Why thank you, Grace, but I'd never do that....
Whaddya mean you aren't talking about me!?!?
I'll forgive you for this indiscretion, though:
"Hereafter, in a better world than this, I shall desire more love and knowledge of you"
--As You Like, Act 1, Scene ii
Sorry, everyone. Force of habit. ;)
So I think you should grant him the one little request. What's one teeny tiny greeting? Just think how happy it would make him.
Such a greeting would make him happy. For about 20 seconds. Then it's off to sucking up to Uncle Beer...

Dammit, Soulsling! Don't ever, EVER, mention "puppy" around Aha! Didn't you learn anything from that last time??
I have an idea, Aha--why not try
"Dear Lynn, Post me a welcome or I'll shoot the head off this chocolate bunny!"
