Hey kids! Lets put on a show! DOPE AID 2001

We are the Teeming

There comes a time when we need to raise some dough
When Teeming Millions must open wallets
There are people posting
But it might not last too long
Our words go out to all

We can’t go on losing cash day by day
Hoping banner ads will somehow make it pay
We’re all a part of Cecil’s weird family
And the truth - you know money is all we need
(CHORUS)
We are the Teeming
We are the Millions
We ask and answer outrageous questions by the zillions
There’s a choice we’re making
We’re saving our post count
It clear we’ll make a better board
Cecil and me

Send them your OP
About -gry or foreskins
It all makes the board stonger, not free
The mods have shown us
By turning trolls to banned
Now it’s our turn to reach out a helping hand

(REPEAT CHORUS)

When your post count’s low
Your threads die out real quick
But if you bump and ramble
You’ll soon be in the clique
Hell, hell, hell, it’s worth it
Fighting ignorance is tough
When we met the enemy and it is us

(REPEAT CHORUS AND FADE)

Bravo, Telemark! Very well done.

Uh, I believe that’s Cajun Man and Rysdad . . . alphabetical order, and all. :wink:

** Telemark **

I think you may be my new hero.

Do they think it’s free online

It’s cold online

There’s no need to go away
At Straight Dope Online we fight ignorance and the inane
And on our Boards of Plenty we can keep the dogs at bay
Post your heart out to world, it’s cold online

But pay a fare

For the Chicago Reader fund
When it’s free online you realize that they are paying some
It’s a Web brought to your window
But it’s a Web of cranks and geeks
Where the crap and bile they’re typing is the useless spew of freaks
And the Moon Hoax, Killer Groundhogs, and the Nameless One reign true
Well tonight thank Cec’ it’s them that’s banned not you

And they won’t post free SMDB next year this time
The greatest gift from Cecil will go cold
No pixels ever glow there
No MIPSIMS or IMHOs there
Do they think it’s free online or what?!

(Here’s to Us) The teeming millions in the sky
(Here’s to Them) The mods, admins, and that Zotti guy
Do they think it’s free online or what?!

Free the Boards
Free the Boards

Free the Boards
Let them know the web ain’t dead

Free the Boards
Let them know the web ain’t dead

We need a magician for this to work. I humbly volunteer for the job. I’ll put on a full stage show with levitations, large animal productions, and other amazing stuff. I can juggle as well, though not nearly as many as Smashed Ice Cream, but I can pass clubs and juggle cigar boxes.

You bet! Just go to The Mudcat Cafe and click on the link to Search the Digital Traditions Database, then do a search on transvestite. I used a little artistic license to say that all sailor transvestite songs are pirate transvestite songs, but you get the idea.

Now, the weird thing is that most of them are love songs…

Even though I’m a newbie, I think I have something to contribute. I do a mean Britney Spears impression, and can spin plates! And, may I add, I’m in love with the ideas of crabwalking and pirate transvestite songs ("…yo ho ho, a he-she’s life for me…").

Anyone up for underwater basket weaving?

I’ll be a fluffer. I mean, you know, if that service is needed…

Yeah, that service is always handy to have around.

Whether it’s needed or not, we could always use a fluffer.

BarbieOrBritney, how about a Britney Spears imitation while underwater basket weaving?

You bet, imthjckaz! :wink:

All I ask is that I get to hear the pirate transvestite songs, at least once.

Hook me up a keyboard onstage and I can type out a mean song…you name the song and I can play it. What? You don’t believe me? ::nods head:: I can, I can.

oh please please please please can I be the cotton candy lady?

Is that a strip tease routine?

Yes?

We could find some use for something sweet and sticky that you have lick off your fingers.

:smiley:

soooooo then…

you’re saying???
:confused:

OH! I GET it!

You want me to sell caramel apples along side my cotton candy!

AWESOME!
:smiley:

:confused: do i know you?

um… i’m a cat. a talking cat. who can type. does that count?

You mean actual cotton candy?

Not some dance routine?

Caramel apples?

OK, now I’m just getting hungry.
Cougarfang, talking cat you say.

Hmmm, works for me. You’re in.

::looks really, really bewildered:: …no?

…am I missing something, here? :confused:

we just had a dance at our school, and it was called “Dance Dance Revolution”… just wondering…

wow, it’s so easy to get in? wait till i round up the rest of my friends… a dancing, talking dragon or two and a bunch of 'nip-addicted talking cats oughta do it…

[long silence]

just kidding, just kidding!
