A cool dry place  
Random Treasure  
Last of the Dogmen  
Quisiera’s Black Stone

I was just cleaning out my storaged boxes and I found an old book of homework and fantasy (fiction and / or d+d) stuff and I found this found poetry in the form of a list.

The funny thing is that sock and/or troll is far and away the most flattering case for you. It’s like if someone asks if you’re super drunk: huffily responding that you’re stone cold sober? Bad times. At least if you were drunk you could sober up.

When somebody gets mad at somebody and responds by writing poems about them, I figure they’re either a teenager or Lord Byron.

The funnier part is that while I have no data to prove otherwise, I’m pretty sure most young men under their 30’s would not reference a b&w early 60’s sitcom. The funniest part is that I already knew where the sock/troll comment was coming from, but chose, like most of my comments here, to reframe it. But hey thanks for caring and sticking your neck out with your post! See that’s a play on your name, giraffe. Get it? Stick your neck out. It’s funny. Punny even. I learned about puns at chess club last week. Or was it yearbook club? I can’t remember.

What a coincidence–when I see someone named after a fish I assume they work the corner! Care to continue, Ms. Fish?

And the fact that you got the reference wrong just proves his point.

Really? Fine. I’ll play. Honey you put the “ass” in “Alessan.” Now take your 14K somewhere else.

But thanks for making me so popular…a celebrity is one who is known to many persons he is glad he doesn’t know.

“Play”? I’m not playing. The only person playing here is you; the rest of us are just watching idly until you’re banned. You’re a diversion, nothing more. You really don’t get that?

Lord Byron. Although I’d expect that he’d be batter at all the fish jokes, especially since he’s in a Hellespont of a lot of trouble.

You always make me throw shit down the quarry. But you already knew that.

You see, this is the kind of thing I’m talking about. Somebody who’s young might hear Nemo and think, “Oh, I know that one. It’s from _Finding Nemo_. I saw that movie when I was a kid.”

Somebody who’s older might know that the name Nemo was around long before Pixar used it. And they might realize that somebody probably wouldn’t have chosen a name from a 2003 movie back in 1999.

It’s not that somebody who’s young doesn’t have anything to say. It’s just that you have to realize many of us have decades of time on you and we’ve had experiences you haven’t had the time for yet.

You took the fun out it; you actually know something about my username. Still good, but I was waiting for some real stupid shit. 😃

Just curious Nemo: how old are you and what do you do for work? I mean, besides getting off on being an Internet mean girl.
