Then there’s the Killer Tomatoes diet. It’ll solve your weight problems . . . permanently.
Yeah, back when Lord of the Rings was just a book, experts on it were revered as the cool, cool people they were. 
Does that mean they shoulda given Tom Hanks’ part to DiCaprio?

I thank my lucky stars the film’s received poor reviews. Hopefully it will stem the tide of pop culture excesses like:[ul][li]Cookbooks,[/li][li]Breakfast Cereal,[/li][li]Holiday Christmas Specials & Music Albums -and-[/li][li]A shitload of toys.[/ul]Of course, if the public ignores the critics’ warnings, at least we can all enjoy years of stimulating Cafe Society discussions.[/li][/QUOTE]
Breakfast cereal? It’s here. Haven’t you seen the ads?
Da Vinci’Os
The cereal is shaped like phalluses or chalices, depending on which way it’s facing in the bowl.
And it includes marshmallows at a 1.6 ratio in the shapes of:**
Red Roses!
Yellow Pentacles!
Green Crosses!
Blue Pyramids!
Pink Vaginas!**
Warning: May cause convulsions in diabetics, narcoleptics, and anyone with more than half a brain.
Damn straight, Bubba. I was geeking out to Frodo when Elijah Wood was still sucking his thumb. Revere me!
I just heard on the radio this morning that The DaVinci Code has been banned in Sri Lanka for suggesting that Jebus was a daddy.
:eek: How many Christians are there in Sri Lanka?!
Fixations like this can get kind of amusing. At the peak of the Atkins craze, I saw a photo of a Jiffy Lube with a sign out front that said “Try our low-carb oil change”.
(shakes, rattles and rolls)
God that sounds good.
(I’m hung over.)
Reminds me of a number of businesses in late 1999 stating that their non-electronic products were “Y2K friendly.”
<convulsing…with laughter>
Just think, the world may never see the Silas action figure (accessories sold separately)!
Or the Opus Dei planner!
:rolleyes:
It’s not over until there’s a frosted-sugar breakfast cereal.
Crap. Starting now, I will never:
- Post without reading the thread
- Think I am original.
I’m just waiting for the children’s cartoon/action figure tie-ins.
(starts to convulse, then spots something shiny and wanders away)
You forgot to convulse.
Here, I’ll help you.
:: applies electrodes, throws switch ::
It would seem possible that we have seen the birth of another, “Doper In-Phrase.”
After this how can a thread be a complete success without containing the line, “Da Vinci Code Convulsion.”
And to think, we were there to see this moment. Sigh…kinda makes a guy feel special, or something.
So, will they make the DaVinci Code Christmas Special?
It could be worse than the Star Wars version.
(hoping Dopers who actually know the story will fill in the humorous details)
So would the Fried Green Tomatoes diet – depending on if it was your turn or not.
I finally made my mark! Perhaps I should change me nick to (Convulses)?

May I eat at the colored’s tables, please?
Re the X-Men III diet: does the exercise plan include swaying your hips over beastly-high stilettos?
refuses to do any convulsing
