An over-inflated sense of self-importance.

And I don’t know how I could have been calling you unclassy when I specifically said that yer clique (which we all know is a well-organized cabal of agents, sworn to follow you from thread to thread and defend your honor*) was probably TOO classy to read my threads…I was implying that I am so close to actually BEING shit that they wouldn’t sully their CPUs by opening one of my threads.

Well, here’s what you and i have in common. Self deprication to a fault. If I could explain why I do it, I’d be a better person.

To me you were saying THEY, THEY being the black leather german jarbaby cult were classy enough to stay out of the thread whereas jarbaby was not classy enough to stay out.

It’s hard to be so hard on myself actually. It requires a lot of assumptions.

My life is like the Chris Farley Show. I just pull at my hair all the time and say “i’m so stupid! God!”

Anyway.

I made some deviled eggs this weekend and replaced half of the yolks with white beans. They taste the same and its considerably lower in fat and cholesterol. Give it a try sometime and tell me what you think

Better end this post before Crunchy Frog starts cracking on my ego yet again, breaking my heart in 23 places.

Actually, you know what happened? That bug up my ass died last night. I feel so much better today.

First off, let me say I don’t know why I kept pushing the topic, when it’s really not that big of a deal. And despite kabbes explanation for the hijacks, I’ve come to my own conclusions as to why one would be acceptable and the other not - it’s Hama’s thread. If she wants to talk about eggs in her thread, that’s her business.

So Hama, I hope it’s not to late to bury the hatchet here. I’m sorry for being so pushy and hard-headed about this. I honestly don’t know why I kept pushing it. I could blame it on quitting smoking, stress at work, the hole in the ozone, alien abduction, whatever, but any of those would just be rationalizing away my behavior without really excusing it.

Anyway, I hope next time we interact on the board it’s under more pleasant conditions.

I love happy endings in the Pit.

Actually, it’s farm-fresh eggs that make the real difference. Store-bought just don’t have the flavor.

So, I have now decided that I probably was OK in talking about the eggs. Which leads to several other moral questions as well. I mean, is talking about eggs a limited sub-genre?

I like deviled eggs. **

A hijack about deviled eggs, like a motion to adjourn, is always in order.

And I think I can say, without fear of contradiction…

I MOVE TO ADJOURN

Are you KIDDING? We’ve almost got this sucker onto page FOUR.

…I want to move to the country with Hamadryad and raise up our love-children. On a chicken farm.

Actually, I’ve just reread my original post and I can see how what was meant as an illustrative example (i.e. eggs naturally grow out of thread) <snip>

Wait, eggs grow out of thread now???

Jesus, all those philosophers on the “chicken and the egg” thing have been going at it all wrong all these years!

Oh you haven’t fallen for that old yarn have you? What a yolk!

You know, a friend on ICQ had read this thread, and asked me what was up your ass. I told him it was my ego, which had lodged up there and inflated like a blowfish.

If nothing else, I thought you’d enjoy the vivid image.

And yeah, all’s good, I don’t hate anyone in here, everyone in here professes not to hate me (or, if they do, they don’t matter because my Huge Ego of Doom (tm, patent pending, all rights reserved, (c)1970) will annihilate them). I guess it’s time for the group hugs. Y’all go right ahead. I’ll be over here in the corner drinking a really unholy amount of tequila.

Tequila? Now that’s what I call a happy ending to a Pit thread… screw the hugs, I’m in the corner with Hama.
