Spoofe, I just saw that you are in Woodland Hills, so I assume that you are a student at UC-Davis. Once upon a time I was looking for a bite to eat out that way (maybe 10-12 years ago) and stumbled across a fast food restaurant called Murder Burger. I couldn’t believe this name. Is this place still there?
Spoofe goes to UC Pierce.
Because neither of those are my name.
Hell if I know.
Shaddap.
I think Monster 104 shares that gun, doesn’t he? As Sean Penn said in At Close Range, “But that’s the family gun!” Oh well, it says a lot about a family, I suppose, that they can own a gun and still each have a complete set of body parts. I still have a scar from the fact that my brother once owned a punching bag and a pair of gloves.
I’m sure we’re all better off from knowing the answers to these questions you’ve kindly answered Spoofey. Although you did get one wrong. The funniest word in the world is BRAIN. Everyone knows that.
Why can’t you get a date? Your ploys should work (yes, the size thing too - it’s odd isn’t it?). I’m worried that they’re not working because I have given men the same kind of advice in the past and they’ve thanked me. If you want to get women, I tell them, don’t chase them. It’s the worst thing you can do. Don’t call them and they will come. Act boyishly, be very polite (try the Hugh Grant brand) and unintimidating. Every time.
There used to be a place at Washington Blvd. and Washington Place called Gooey Louies. Not there anymore, but it had a good burger. There’s another place on Fairfax (?) that used to be called Meaty Meat Burger. It burned down and was re-opened as Mo Better Meaty Meat Burger.
Okay, so what are the odds that the two Dopers whose names I most often confuse at a glance, SPOOFE and spooje both live in Woodland Hills, CA and joined the Boards within a month of each other?[sup]*[/sup] Are you the most elaborate, prolific sockpuppet in existence? (with more than twice the posts of your master)?
[sup]*The odds are apparently 1-1, for those of you playing along at home.[/sup]
Thank you ShibbOleth. I thought I was the only one who had a problem with SPOOFE and spooje. I think I’m f/j colorblind.
So SPOOFE, do these pants make me look fat?
Woodland Hills? What kind of place is that? It sounds a little like a cemetery. I know it’s not though, so I’m asking: Is it stressful living there? Do people incur penalties if their teeth aren’t straight or their clothes are two years out of date? If your hair isn’t shiny are you allowed out in the daylight?
Johnny L.A.: I have an old Creem magazine from 1974 which has a “special report” on Hollywood in it. It contains a Hollywood consumer’s guide which lists the hippest clubs and hotels. How many of these clubs still exist: Rodney Bingenheimer’s English Disco, Whisky A Go Go, Troubador, Roxy, Palomino, Starwood, Golden Bear? It would be interesting to know. I have a lot of old magazines. I could win any competition that was about listing obscure bands from the seventies.
As yet another Doper that lives in Woodland Hills (and I do agree it does sound a little like a cemetery. Or a retirement home), it’s actually a very suburban, middle-class kind of town. Not stressful at all. Quite pleasant, if that’s your thing. My clothes are far more than 2 years out of date and my hair ain’t that shiny, but I’m still allowed to leave the compound.
IIRC–the Roxy, the Troubador, and the Whisky still stand, and I think the Palomino does, too. Rodney Bingenheimer’s English Disco went out years ago… I happened to run into him at Canter’s one night and the man looks… mummified. [sub]shudder[/sub]
Yes, but *spooje isn’t my sock. My sock is Unclebeer.
Well, it’s not really stressful… it’s just boring, really. But that’s just because I’m a boring person. My favorite form of late-night entertainment is to get a video camera, and drive around the city filming a movie that we make up on the fly. Our last project was called Master Karate Masters From Outer Space, and it’s an utterly ridiculous movie. It deals with the exploits of Flip Wolfenstein, an alien who comes to Earth to kill the producers of the movie Zoolander, because that movie is bad for his planet. Then our hero, Slimmy McSticky, comes to stop Flip Wolfenstein, because the movie is good for his planet. And… well… we included this really cool Matrix-style special effect where Slimmy jumps in the air, and I catch him, and then the camera whirls around us, and then I drop him again.
Man, I sure wish my History tests had questions like these. I’m tired of talking about smoes like George Washington and Alexander Hamilton.
Anyway, “No” to both questions. While we have some very lovely people in Woodland Hills (like Java), we also have some pretty weird-looking people, too.
Gah! I screwed up the coding! No-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!
::commits hara-kiri::
He he he. That makes me the master! Woohoo!
I think SPOOFE shortened his name just to mess people up.
Useless information warning:::::
[sub]I no longer live in Woodland Hills. Haven’t for many years. But I worked there when I joined the board, and I am easily confused and cannot follow simple instruction. I live in North Hollywood, now.[/sub]
The Whiskey still thrives. The Roxy and the Troubador are still there. The Palomino is out of business and deserted, but still standing.
I never heard of the others.
Why don’t you make a movie about Rodney Bingheimer Spoofe? What a guy. What a club. "A sleazy bar on Sunset Strip which flaunted California’s liquor laws with true impudence. Most of Rodney’s clientele were not only under 21 they were under 16. Many of his most interesting customers were only 14, and had been groupies for real since they were 11. Among them was…a 14 year old who reported being engaged anally for more than four hours with an English pop star …an authentic 12 year old…who when her boyfriend asked which she had learned to do first, tie her shoes or give head, she had replied: “I learned to tie my shoes when I was 3. I didn’t learn to give head until I was 11.” Almost what? Cameron who?
Agghhh!
SPOOFE and spooje posting in the same thread!
spooje’s gone Hollywood, literally, while it sounds as if SPOOFE has done it figuratively, or maybe Hollywood has gone him.
And at least one poster to this thread has been banned since it started. I didn’t know that asking innocuous/inane questions was a bannable offense!
This is most disquieting!
[sub]and I am quiet certain I don’t want to know what G.Nome was going on about[/sub]
ShibbOleth: Well, I want to know more about what you’re talking about. Who has been banned and if it was me why wasn’t I told? This thread is not so inane. In fact, it should reassure every American who reads it. Did it occur to you that the words and ideas which currently seem to empower radical fundamentalist Moslems are also relevant to American culture? I mean the idea of the cell as it applies to terrorism. And how do cells work? Like this:
“By dividing the greater organization into many multiperson groups and compartmentalizing information inside each cell as needed, the greater organization is more likely to survive if one of its components is compromised.”
As you can see by my references to American culture in this thread if (by the smallest chance) America is ever reduced to a smoking hole in the ground Rodney Bingheimer’s spandex flag will still be flying somewhere in the world and the ethos of American rock and roll will guide generation after generation of people who will just never do what they are told. Ever. So take that Moslem fundamentalists.
It wasn’t you, G.Nome, it was someone else in this thread who made a mistake, apologised to the Mods, and has since been reinstated. Cool?
