It’s alright, Dave. Life is pain. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something.
Knock it off, I mean it. Anybody want a peanut?
Hey, Neurotik. Somebody’s looking for you.
Do you always begin conversations this way?
It’s ‘Sicilians’, surely.
Full script.
Unless I’m missing some subtle joke.
Which is possible.
My name is Inig-
Nah, forget it.
Alex B
a play on the name Cecil is the part you seemed to have missed.
Inconceivable!

Dammit, wring. Dammit dammit dammit.
Alex, I think elucidator was going for the rare double joke.
He makes a humorous quote in reference to the OP, yet in the same instance, changes the actual word (Sicilians) to a word that makes a subtle pun (Cecilians) in refence to Cecil Adams, thus making it twice as funny.
I thought it was pretty clever.
(but yours was worded better. drat. However, I know somehting you didn’t - I was typing left handed and I’m really right handed…)
** Dave**, you seem a decent fellow. I hate to kill you
Dave, get some rest. If you haven’t got your health, then you haven’t got anything.
Oh, you mean the P.O.U.S’s? Posters of Unusual Speed? I think they’re a myth.
Those are Caecilians… Fezzig, jog his memory.
As you wish
Dave Thanks for doing that! You gave me a good laugh and have (hopefully) prevented me from doing something similar in the future.
Your sacrifice today shall not be forgotten. From now on “Daving” as in “Sorry, I Daved” will have a special meaning here on the SDMB.
I have to say that I’m really pleased that both you and Neurotik are such good sports. I shudder to think what this thread would like like had this happened between two posters who were, shall we say, less gracious than you two.
