The horror of blimps

The BBQ Pit

I haven’t posted here in forever, but I had to add my “Bravo.” When I read

I stopped and visited the bathroom, to ward off the pants-wetting I knew I’d be in for otherwise. And I wasn’t disappointed. By the time you’d punched the evil blimp, I was convulsing, tears streaming down my face, and laughing so hard I was barely making any noise - I sounded like Muttley from the Hanna Barbera cartoons.

Then I read

and, knowing what must follow, I really lost it.

Thank you for the biggest laugh I’ve had in a long time!

82

Get in line, woman!

:wink:

Scylla, and everyone who has added a comment to this thread:

You’re all hysterical. Thank you for the laughs, it’s been a rough week but you completely cracked me up!!!

I just feel badly for your dogs!

A :slight_smile:

You need to do two things (in this order):

  1. copyright your story …

  2. send it to Stephen King …

Scylla,

I just read this post and I must say that, although it’s been said many a time before on here, fantastic job, nearly wet m’self laughing.

And for those keeping track of the source link for this post:

I heard of it from a friend who is a cast leader of the Rocky Horror Picture Show cast I used to be on in Minneapolis MN

yet another round of applause…you’re responsible for me waking the neighbours as well as scaring the HELL outta my fish…

I just wish I had someone to terrorize with one of those :smiley:

BTW, this thread was at 31 000 views exactly when I clicked on it.

That was a great story! I had such a good time reading it…it was good to laugh out loud.
BTW…I found this thread and board through a link posted by a fellow gamer on our gaming clan’s board.

I will probably be a lurker for a while…there is a lot of activity here and I want to find out more of what it’s all about.

The Great Circle:

DarkJudicator joins the SDMB.

DJ then joins the LiveJournal world at the urgings of a few of his SDMB buddies.

DJ then sees a link to this hysterical thread on another messageboard.

DJ sees a link on the last page of said thread, and where does it lead? To this hilarious little story.

'tis a small world. I think the Internet Infidels can probably take credit for a reasonable chunk of that extra traffic this thread’s generating.

91

… should of course read “… sees a link on Livejournal that leads to this hysterical thread …”

Correction solely for the sake of continuity and narrative.

It could have been worse:

Drebin: It’s the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year’s Day.

Jane: Goodyear?

Drebin: No…the worst…

Check it out.

Scylla’s meme is spreading.

I have to say that when I first spotted this, I emailed the link to hubby (Echo23tc) at work. He emailed me back that I was to no longer send those kinds of links to his work… that they were too funny and made everyone look at him funny (they look at him funny anyway)…But he’s already SDMB reader so…I couldn’t have been the one to spread it.

Great Job Scylla!

I come from an online writing site. It’s been posted there, so there are more people coming!

Scylla, thanks! I think I broke a rib, but thanks!

You owe me a new keyboard.

I can’t remember the last time I posted here, but I innocently clicked a link posted by a friend.

I read it this morning in my cube, and practiced Lamaze laughing (where you just blow instead of letting go with the belly laugh). Well, that worked for all of about 45 seconds, and when it did finally go, I laughed so hard my sides ached and I couldn’t see for the tears running down my face.

Thank you, Scylla, for this wonderful slice of your life.

Great Thread. I found the link on a MCSE certification site I frequent. Excellent story. I haven’t laughed like that in a while. I sent the link to a coworker in the hopes that he will throughly embarass himself with gales of laughter. Bravo!!!

Scylla, that was brilliant. Just brilliant.
