The DynoSaur/JoeyHemlock Appreciation Thread

Folks, we gather here together today to give forth praises to two of the boards unsung heroes. Two of the sweetest guys I’ve ever known, and if you don’t know them, too, you should. VileOrb and I have been beating our heads against the wall for three days,just trying to come up with a way to thank them, but hookers are still illegal in Illinois, so this is the best we’ve come up with. So far, anyway.

On Thursday, JoeyHemlock drove all the way into the city from some gawdawful suburb just to take me to a movie. He knows I’m not leaving the house much these days, save to look for a job, so he came in to cheer me up. We went to a movie, had drinks, with VileOrb joining us, had more drinks, had too many drinks, we snuggled, cried (or I did, anyway), laughed and snuggled more. He even bought me some of my favourite cider so that I would have something to drink when the ChiDopers came in on the weekend. He came BACK in on Saturday, partied with us, gave smooches and hugs and kept everyone in stitches. He walked NymDawg. He WROTE ME A SONG! JoeyBear is the bestest.

DynoSaur, on the other hand, didn’t get a head start. So, rather than try to usurp Joey’s standing, he went right to the heart of the matter. He. Brought. Me. Groceries. Yes, he walked into my place on Saturday with big bags of groceries. Full of hugs and standard Dyno good cheer, he was like Sandy Claws, only cuter. He is the only person I know that can both A) use my keyboard and B) use my keyboard while utterly drunk on Jager. He can drink a bottle of that stuff and still type. I have the logs to prove it. Apparently he gives good snuggles, too, but I’ve just had hugs. Damn my luck. He even stayed the night at my place, for once, rather than driving back to Spiffled at 400a. If Joey is the bestest, Dyno is the bestestest.

To top it off, these two beautiful men stuck around all day Sunday to help me, VileOrb and boli move all of VO’s stuff into my place. And let me tell you, friends and neighbors, that was NOT a fun job. There was piles and piles and piles and PILES of stuff to move. It took…three (?) trips in a U-Haul van, half an hour both ways. They were tired, they were hungover, they were hungry and they stuck with it until the bitter end, which was something like 900p. We have no words to express our gratitude.

So, here’s to you, guys. I love you both, and I’m sure Vile will offer some manly handshake of sorts. :slight_smile: Just wanted you to know how much we care and that good deeds are noticed.

We, who are about to post, salute you.

I TRIED to contribute to the Buy Joey and Dyno Some Hookers fund, but NymDawg just HAD to eat, didn’t she. I blame it on the dog.

I would have stayed to help, but I was too protective of my trachea. I’ve gotten fond of breathing, you see, and really am trying to do what I can to preserve the structural integrity of my throat.

You two guys still do rock, though.

I’d offer them sexual favors except they wouldn’t want that from me. I’d offer them my soul except I don’t have one. I’m working on a song, but “That was me almost falling down the stairs”, while funny, is not poetic. So, maybe something about my non-existant soul. Creative juices not flowing today.

Anyway, This thread is merely a small beginning on the praises I plan to rain down on you both.

Now another equally important thing. Boli was a huge help too. I have a better chance of thinking her properly than I do for the guys, but she actually helped me pack half the day on Saturday in addition to helping with the move on Sunday after she told me earlier in the week that moving was her most hated thing to do in the whole world. So, it’s going to take a lot of thanking.
Thanks to all three of you.

Huzah! Those guys are the bees knees.

Joey, you’re a heck of a guy, but Dyno, in my book, is one hell of a guy. He sent me Stroh when I was out.

What more is there to say?
[sub]P.S.- Nymy, I left you a half dozen eggs in the bottom right crisper drawer as well as some ham and cheese…and Sunny D.[/sub]

While I haven’t been so lucky as to meet these guys in real life like you, you lucky lucky Nymysys, I totally love these manly men.

They are a HUGE reason why I like to chat in #straightdope. When I meet them in real life, I’m gonna hug 'em, and kiss 'em, and squeeze 'em. Just like in the Wolfie cartoon.

/me smooches Joey and Dyno

Aww, you’re welcome, m’dear. It’s nice to be appreciated.

Now, if you had only let me throw away more of your stuff! I could’ve singlehandedly eliminated at least one of the three trips. AND, I remembered on the way home that you did not hold up your end of the deal by playing Jimmy Buffett while we packed. Sade is NOT a suitable equivalent. :slight_smile:

But yeah, Joey & Dyno ROCKED. They did all of the heavy lifting and didn’t complain. Well, maybe a little about that organ…

I adore them both.

Dyno and I were talking in chat one day and decided to call each other. I proclaimed that he has a “suitably deep voice.” Which he indeed does. I hope that I will be able to meet and celebrate Doper-ness with this wonderful man someday.

Joey has long been a wonderful friend in chat, and I have to say that he’s going to get an enormous hug (but no hot sex, sorry) when we meet up in Boston.

In my little world, they are two of the reasons that the SDMB is great.

I met Dyno and Joey first through chat, then at the ChiDope. Well, me and Dyno more so than Joey…

Joey is a sweetheart, otherwise why did I let him suck my arm? [sub]hehehehehe[/sub] Plus he gives good Tequila. :slight_smile:

Dyno…you rock Paul. You, along with tigg and Quix, met me at the train station in the pouring rain. You put up with my drunk ass all night and you spoon like a champ. :slight_smile:

[sub]To be fair, I didn’t give him a chance. I forced him to spoon me, Nym’s place was COLD. I did a great job under duress.[/sub]

I loves me some JoeyHemlock and Dyno. Not normally at the same time, though.

Joey and Dyno rock, because they tell me on a regular basis how much they love me. Maybe one of these days I’ll even believe them. :slight_smile:
(And they both make really good teddy bears at ChiDopes :smiley: )

(And Joey gives excellent backrubs :D)

(And Dyno puts up with me kicking him inna shins and falling asleep on him at Dopefests and in chat without killing me. :D)

(And Dyno’s driven me home, even though I’m WAY out of his way. (So have MIkeG and VileOrb and thinks and porc. :D)

Dyno and Joey, you guys are a big part of why I haven’t abandoned chat or Dopefests even when I’m terminally depressed (see: Me at the Quiet ChiDope.) You rock in a million different ways. :smiley:

Ahhh they are OK…:wink: Dyno is better then that Joey character though… [sub]:Odie mumbles with jealousy at Joey’s singing voice ,lyric creation abilities, and his ability to befriend all the women of the SDMB:[/sub]

That stinky porcupine stole my answer, word for word. My second response, then:

I loves me some Joey Hemlock and DynoSaurat the same time.

Yeah, yeah… I love 'em, too.

We are blessed to have both Joey and Dyno around.
I secretly believe that the little plastic dinosaurs on the food table belong to Paul. HE ROCKS!

and Joey…this is a man I love so much, I made a point of throwing extra hair clips in my purse, JUST FOR HIM!

Nmy honey, I don’t have a whole lot, but if you need somthing, let me know.
VO I promise, as soon as I’m allowed to take a lunch, you’ll be the first to know!

JoeyHemlock always turns my frown upside down by making inappropriate comments and telling me he loves me. How can he not be a great guy? He’s got a really cool voice too, very smooooooove.

I would miss Dyno, but the jobless bastard is always in chat, so I don’t have a chance to. (Heehee! Hope you find a job soon, babe.)

You guys both rock, indeed. Just remember though. Friends help you move. Real friends help you move the body.

All I’m sayin’ is that Joey is gonna get some lovin’ from me at Dopetoberfest. He’s just groovy.

Well, I’m not going to toot my own horn, but i do, in fact, ROCK! Let me add my name to the list of people who appreciated Dyno. He actually volunteered to help with the move, whereas I got roped into in by Nym. :wink: I always enjoy hanging out with Dyno. He makes me laugh, both in real life and in chat.

This thread almost made me cry (but it didn’t, because I’m not a pansy). I honestly love you all.

Sure I do. It’s not your fault that people suck.

:shrugs:

Joeykins, you know I love you. You’re a good egg. I don’t care <i>what</i> lno says.

And Dyno, I can’t wait to finally drink that tumbler of jaeger with you.
You guys really are the greatest.

Damn LiveJournal and its screwy html seeping into my brain. I knew I should have previewed. Bah.
