hey, where’s breakfast?
Hey fierra, I could go for some early morning sorbet! Maybe some Italian (shaved) ice…yum.
Don’t even think about calling it shaved ice in Hawaii.
It’s shave ice.
Hello? Am I still welcome? I hope so.
Out with the flu yesterday…wouldn’t wish it on the most vile thread. But I’m on the mend.
I was wondering if you all would still be around, but with topics like tips for large breasted nipple piercings, I can see why you’re going strong.
Brava, Mermaid.
Aloha kakahiaka
And so we begin another day of threadkilling.
Point of order: If the mods wind up closing this thread, will the last poster be awarded with a kill?
You open a box on the floor of wierd things and find…
A newspaper entitled “Bad News.” It’s depressingly accurate
A little breakfast poetry with a nod to Stephen Crane
the threadkiller
As I wandered in the internet
I came upon a creature
bestial, squatting, eating of his own thread
Is it good friend, I asked?
No,it is bitter, bitter
But I like it
because it is bitter
and because it is my own thread
DESIDERATA - RUDYARD KIPLING
Go Placidly amid the noise and haste and remember
What peace there may be in silence.
(brutally edited)
Try to be happy
I’d like to post the entire poem, but we aren’t allowed to post copyrighted material. So I will just post the lines I think you should hear.
Haagen Dazs may be bad for Threads, but it’s still very good for little King Charles Spaniels, isn’t it?
(Yes, that’s right. I’m jealous. She feeds her dogs ice cream, but I get the snausages. Oh well. I’ll take what I can get. 
)
“This is the thread that never ends
It just goes on and on, my friend
Someone started typing it not knowing what it was
And they’ll go on typing it forever just because
This is the thread that never ends
It just goes on and on, my friend
Someone started typing it not knowing what it was
And they’ll go on typing it forever because
This is the thread that never ends…”
That’ll kill it
Err Mermaid I’m pretty sure Kipling didn’t write the Desiderata, and if he did I’m sure it’s out of copywrite too…(If sex won’t kill this thread, then maybe some facts will )
I just looked up Desiderata on a search engine and didn’t even bother to think about the author. I didn’t think Kipling sounded right, but I cut and pasted it from the link anyway.
I stand corrected
My apologies to the Max Ermman family.
BTW I always enjoyed the National Lampoon parody, Deteriorata. “you are a fluke of the universe, you have no right to be here, whether you can hear it or not, the universe is laughing behind your back”
The lovely vocals on that song were done by the lovely Melissa Manchester. Of course I could be wrong.
Vanity of vanities, all is…fishpaste? This can’t be right. Hang on a sec, I gotta check something.
No matter where I stand this thread is looking at me… very vaguely creepy, if you ask me…
I know how to kill this thread…tell it to stop smoking. I stopped smoking yesterday after 17 years. I’ve eaten what seems like 12 pounds of sunflower seeds, 2 bags of chips from the machine and drank 5 MT Dews this morning. Smoking just may be healthier. I’m also not very nice today.
OMG!! I feel my mind starting to melt. Must turn away, must not watch. Think of Jennifer Grey before she had the nose job. Focus, Focus, FOCUSSSSSS!!!
>pokes Cobravert with sharp stick
GRRRRRR SNAP CHOMP RRRARGH
Nope, not very nice at all.
But hey your breath is so much nicer. Give us a kiss willya?
>Steals a smooooch from Cobravert
Hang in there, the first 2-3 days are the worst.
Cobra, Mermaid meant to say “the first 23 are the worst.”
Congrats Cobra, keep going {Cobra} - that’s not a sight you’ll see very often…me hugging a Cobra!
Sauron, Jester opens a new thread & reposts the last post from the previous in there and we keep going…
Right - Haagen Dazs for everyone except thready…yes, DW, even you…but they don’t have snausage flavour…what do you want instead?
Thinksnow - some shave(d) ice for you - but don’t you get that every morning?
Struuter - some for you - I hear it’s good to fight flu with! Mermaid, if it is safe for aquatic creatures to eat ice (you don’t look like an ice fish, so I’m not sure), you’re welcome to some.
Fierra curls up in the corner, eating ice cream, surrounded by a group of ice cream-adoring followers…
