So how long you figure 'til **Hal Briston** or one of the other Usual Suspects waltzes in with _his_ opinion? :rolleyes:

I am posting in this thread having not read the other three pages because I want to focus on the original post without possibly having my opinion altered by other thoughts from the Doper collective.

Cuntplegic is not a real word and it doesn’t describe a woman after rough sex with a massively endowed man.

And Cheeze Whiz isn’t something you eat, it’s something you see a urologist for.

The rest of your post is surreal and it’s almost as if it was composed to be a bouillabaisse of unrelated elements that make no since, almost as if it were the ending of a backwards thread. Personally I think you’re in a very dark place in your mind. You should probably be evaluated, JMHO.

Well, it’s not the first time I entered a smoke-filled room covered with cheese and surrounded by Cubans. Besides those cigars were worth more than my life.

I think I’ll leave that to Mr. **Briston** …

By the way, I think congratulations is in order for **Hal** and **kitten**. You excited?

But \*\*Hal \*\* the part I don’t understand is how you could make a diorama of, well, anything using just the materials you had at hand?

Wow, what a great party last night. Who ever suggested it later in this thread sure had a great idea. We still have some folks we need to get to the airport, we have more private jets waiting. BTW, has anyone seen Lieu? He hasn’t been seen after he finished second in the farting contest.

Ya know, I grew up hanging around my uncle’s farm. I didn’t think chickens would ever get as mad as what I saw in that link **twickster** provided. Makes me want to think twice before I ever gather any fresh eggs again. :eek:

Um, are you sure? I thought the fur is fleeced after the filleting, not beforehand…? And what about the spark arrester? Does that go by the hydraulic pump, or the loin chop? 😕

It was, but for only 20 minutes, and that was in 1960.

I haven’t read through all four pages, but I think **Atomic Badger Racing** is a sock. His posts read suspiciously like a certain _other poster’s_.

I’m going to come right out and admit I made up **Atomic Badger Racing** as a sock for myself. However, since I’m so clever with language, I’m sure nobody has suspected a thing, as **ABR** sounds like a 25-year-old black lesbian vegetarian, and I’m a 45-year-old straight white omnivore.
