Happy Birthday, Ex! waves big flag and throws confetti
Spiderman 2 and Master and Commander.
Happy Birthday! Ex!
Iffen you don’t mind, I won’t sing this time. 'Sides Swampy already did.
I think mayonnaise on DVDs is just icky, so it’s a good thing you just got the DVDs.
I don’t like Brussel Sprouts, 'cause to me they taste kinda bitter. So add that to the foods I don’t like:
oysters,
rhubarb,
brussel sprouts,
raw fish,
I think there was sumpin else, but I don’t remember, 'cause I’m old. Older than FCM an Swampy, but not older then both of 'em put together. (You’l notice I’m not even gonna try for a joke about puttin FCM an Swampy together)
I was going somewhere with this, but I’ve forgotten that too.
This is exactly what I would hae posted if it hadn’t been posted already.
Ex, darlin’, have you ever seen the clip of Marilyn Monroe singing Happy Birthday to JFK? Well, I look and sound just like her and I’m singing it for just for you. On second thought, I look just like Michelle Pfeiffer in The Fabulous Baker Boys during the New Year’s Eve scene, but I still sound like Marilyn Monroe.
Nooooooooo. Not Marilyn Manson, Marilyn Monroe.
Happpy Birthday Ex!
Master and Commander is a good movie. I really enjoyed it.
I don’t like brussels sprouts either. I like Swampy’s name for 'em. I think I’ll use it from now on in, iffen he doesn’t mind. I do, however, like spinach, broccoli, cauliflower and mushrooms.
Oh, and ripe bananas just don’t taste sweet to me. They just taste…I dunno…funny, and have some overwhelming blechy taste to me. 'Course, that’s just me.
Hey, I just noticed, nobody answered my question about what ripeness nanners to use in nanner sammiches. Helloooooo? Am I being ignored?
It’s most definitely bitter cold outside today. My hands feel like two lumps of ice and I’m having a hard time typing.
Happy birthday Ex! Glad you made it to another one!
Guess who had a peanut butter an’ nanner sammich for lunch today. Uh huh huh.
And the proper ripeness for a sandwich nanner is “to taste” Taters. If it’s your sammich, you have full banana authority. Me? I like mine fully yellow with just a speckling of brown. No green.
It is Friday afternoon and this thread has been at the top of the page every time I have refreshed. I’m think this may be due to Rue’s decision to start the thread off with a story involving food. Of course, part of it has to be due to eveyone wishing Exgineer (I don’t post enough to just call him Ex) HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Either way, I believe this has been one of the most popular MMPs to grace this board in a long time.
Oh, to follow up on Swampy’s (he seems so kind that you can’t help call him Swampy…but I wouldn’t dare call him Angel Pants) instructions for me to try flavored chips on the nanner sammich, I found that using dill chips makes for a very interesting taste. Not something I’d go out of my way to get, but not something I’d turn down immediately. I highly recommend that everyone do further testing on their on.

Nah - I like her enough to let that go. However, if anyone else tries it, I make no guarantees.
Yeah, like I care. For those keeping score, my b-day is fast approaching, and love offerings of fine chocolates are most certainly appropriate. Just sayin’…
It’s been done - hence his frequent allusions to me being a cheap date! We were actually quite civil when put together - didn’t get tossed outta Whitey’s Fish Camp or nuttin!
Heck, I’d even let him come into my house here. I’d let you come into my house here! For that matter, the whole MMP crew is welcome! C’mon down! There’ll even be a door prize! Winner gets a crystal chandelier!
woohoo!
Me too - yet further evidence why you and I are bound on a deep, spiritual level. Not that I consider nanners to be particularly deep or spiritual…
I would like to take this occasion to mention that I now have a cell phone of my very own! Yay me!! I might even be persuaded to share it, seein’s as how we have a kajillion rollover minutes, plus anyone on Cingular can call for free. No, I won’t post it here. I’m not quite that senile.
That’s all. Carry on.
I like broccoli; I eat it a lot. With mayonnaise, even. I don’t like brussel sprouts or cauliflower, but will eat them if I have to.
Bananas with any green on them taste starchy to me. I like them fully yellow to yellow-brown.
Hi, Opal.
I can’t believe there are people gullible enough to try a banana and mayonnaise sandwich. With or without chips.
I liked Spiderman 2 much better than the first one. I didn’t see Master and Commander.
Happy Birthday, Ex! Look, I got you this lovely chandelier for your garage!
Wow, you all drug in someone who only posts 7 or 8 times a year, tops! Now you’re probably set to start corrupting America’s youth.
Hi Belz!
<snerk> All right, I know I have a dirty mind but this reminded me of a story I once heard about a banana. Yes, it’s a true story. No, it did not happen to me. Yes, it’s probably too dirty for this board.
My, this gutter is getting crowded!
Dang - wish I’d thought of that…
Aw, thanks, fcm but I’m gonna kick welby’s butt for tryin’ to get me in trouble wif ya. I distinctly called you “matron fcm” which is quite a different animal from “matronly” in my book. Anyhoo, compared to ol’ Tupug, yer just a slip of a girl. 
Nanners are definitely best yellow with a sprinkling of brown specks. Anyone who thinks otherwise is, well, a green nanner eater.
I gotta go pick up the stupit badges.
Tupug
Perhaps I should have said “profound” instead of deep…
you perv! :o
You don’t have to know me to call me Ex, just regard me with a certain level of contempt.
Now, now, Tupugalicious, everyone knows I’m an instigator. There’s no need for violence.
I need to put on my list of life long accomplishments:
Didn’t get kicked out of Whitey’s Fish Camp
I have, however, been kicked out of bars. But that’s a story (actually a bunch of em) for another time.
FCM informed us over at Skip’s place that the chandelier is in her laundry room. I think that’s lovely!
BelZarak I am so proud you’re experimenting with nanner sammiches. Plain chips are still best but I kinda liked the dill pickle taste too. Jalapeno flavored chips are also kinda nice. A combo sweet and hot taste.
Taters many of my friends have taken to calling brussels sprouts fart blossoms. Even those who shudder like em. The first time I called em that in front of ACBG he lost it at the Hog Trough all you can eat buffet we were at. We’re going through the line and I said, “Look! They got fart blossoms today.” Thought the poor ol’ critter was gonna pass out from laughing. He doesn’t like em either.
Tonight we’re meeting friends at Long Horn Steaks. It’s for a birthday dinner. Not a 50th one though. I don’t like Long Horn’s much but the bday girl gets to pick so I’m goin’. The one here once got a real horrible score on their restaurant inspection. Among the things listed was “slime mold inside drink dispensers.” :eek: I’m drinking beer from a bottle myself.
The local paper publishes scores from restaurant inspections along with the reports. It’s one of the reasons I look forward to the Sunday paper.
