I don’t know, this is a lame thread, even to me. Must have received their hookers and blow allowance check last week. Still sleeping it off, methinks. ---

Someone needs to take this thread out behind the shed & shoot it. We can tell everyone it’s been sent to a farm in the country to run free. ---

Back when I was young, we used to tell the story that if you said **Cajun Man** three times in a thread, he would appear and close your thread. Now that I have achieved the wisdom of age, I realize that this is just a silly superstition. ---

I’m too scared to try. Do you have to hold a flashlight under your chin so you look spooky while saying it? ---

What sillyness. I can’t imagine believing that if you mention **Cajun Man** three times in a thread, that he’d close it. ---

(With my sincerest, most abject apologies to Johnnie Rivers, P.F. Sloan and S. Barri) Secret **Cajun Man** , secret **Cajun Man** They’ve given you a mandate, so you can take away the game. Swingin’ on the Straightdope one day And then layin’ in wait for bad threads next day Oh no, they let the wrong post slip While killing threads with mundane quips The odds are it won’t live to see tomorrow ---

Is it an American accent, or an English-type (British/Irish/Scottish) I don’t know the accent in the Depths of Depravity - I figure it’s some type of drunken slurring. ---
