I’ve been reading the SDMB for awhile and decided about 5 minutes ago I couldn’t wait any longer and signed up. I wasn’t sure whether to introduce myself or just post, so I decided to err on the side of caution, and here I am. So, before I continue my nervous rambling long into the night… hey.

[sub]Boy am I glad I don’t have to watch out for the calamari tank this time…[/sub]
Well, hello. Don’t let all the talk of goats & calamari scare you.
But it helps if you relax…
Doc, we got another one!
(Don’t forget to submit your Dead Celebrities.)
You are in the correct Forum, Typically Sunday.
And now, the goat. 
Nope. Just don’t trip over the appreciative audience! 
The goat is on the left. Rental galoshes are on the right. You brought your own straw, right?
$5 says we crack another vase this time.
Hey, Typically Sunday, welcome!
Invest in a ring cushion. After the goat and the cal- what? Oh, right, so, I can’t tell him?
:eek: what have I gotten myself into?
Welcome, Typically Sunday!
Don’t listen to the little voices. They only mislead. You don’t have to worry about goats or calamari or green jello or anything.

Right. Anyone order a leg of deergoat? Yes, well, nevermind the mess, that’s what we have MODS for. Just don’t be a jerk, deliver correct responses with snarky tone and everything’ll be just fine. K?
RIGHT. And now, The Sponge Monkeys.
Welcome, TS!
Looks like everything is proceeding … okay, “normally” probably isn’t the right word here … according to plan.
Remembert – just relax and thing of England.
Did you bring pie?
And chocolate for Lynn?
twickster, I don’t think we can blame England for this thing…
Besides, the thing of England has ears; our thing has…oogy stuff.
shudder
Isn’t Remembert a Latvian cheese? Or was he the guy who was getting chased in Les Miserables?
Remembert is actually a former “Dilbert” character (ne Chuck Cunningham).
Smartasses. Do you really want to start on the person who brings the vat of calamari to our little gatherings?
I think the question of exactly who is responsible for the arrival of the calamari is in dispute. It prefers to think of itself as a …‘free agent’ …and it doesn’t take ‘no’ for an answer.

I think everything’s in order, let me just turn a few valves and we can begin.
Uh, Gadfly, that’s not the …bagpipe synthesiser, is it?

Oh, no, not that old thing.
It’s the new model. Complete with moose lathe.
