What has become of SDMB, especially GD’s?

In the current lull in the reciprocal blowjob-fest between you and Aeschines, we have had to resort to our own pitiful witicisms to amuse ourselves. Sorry if any of the flung mucus soiled your tights.

It was sort of a rhetorical question.

Yes, I think laughter is quite apposite.

Yep, yep, doin’ fine.
Yep, yep, doin’ fine.
Yep, yep, doin’ fine.
Yep, yep, doin’ fine.
Yep, yep, doin’ fine.

No boogers from “be”? You got a cold?

And if you want to post to Cafe Society, then that’s where you must go. We do not allow such frivolity around here. The integrity is just too great.

And loving every precious moment of it!

Damn you for putting this image in my head. Damn you to hell.

Aw, blew the formatting in the above. Still, I think the basic idea gets across.

Maureen, the link didn‘t work for me. Would you try again?

Yes, you are a supercilious nitwit.

You betcha. Try this one. Although Jason Mewes looks much better in lace than in leotards, IMO…

Oh, okay.

Which one is which?

Your thread you get to decide.

Oh, you said it!

Frank reformatted a previous post correctly. My bad.

Thanks, Frank. I appreciate it.

This was good!

Watch out now, we might all start laughing together and liking each other, and then we wouldn’t have our fun little war any more.

Hey you guys, take your shots at me, I don’t mind. I don’t turn to the Dope as my source of self-respect (does anyone?). But when I saw people trying to pull that old-school invalidation shit on someone who seemed pretty cool to me, the kind of poster we should want to have on the boards, I knew I must join in the rumble. And it’s been fun! (Not that drmark2000 wasn’t doing an excellent and successful job of defending himself; he was. But two righteous people against the ignorant horde is not twice the power, it’s more like 10 times the power.)

We defused the bullshit and demonstrated that that species of negativity isn’t going to fly here any more. Indeed, all the “dead-enders” are left with now are grody boogs, but boogers are harmless. Medusa has seen her reflection. Liberation (for now at least) is effected!

I feel so…validated

Am I still a tool? maybe I’ll call my sitcom Awl in the Family.

Yeah, Sparky, that’s just what happened.

A question for you. Imagine, for a moment, a world in which you were a gibbering cretin with the self-awareness of, oh, let’s say a balloon animal, about as good a judge of intelligent posting as you are a judge of pan-dimensional rotary manicotti. What would distinguish your attitude from your current attitude, your impression of your accomplishments from your current impression?

And as well you should. This guy can write! Still, the stanza requires some further analysis.

It’s not bad, for a toss-off. But the metering and punctuation could benefit from some more attention. Here’s a suggestion:

The sitcom’s format benefits
From transformation into blank verse form.
But casting one with animals you’ve made
From toy balloons, now that would break the norm.

You see? Just a few changes, and your message gets across considerably better. Poetry is difficult, man.

Not bad, not bad. Except that awls and balloons, you know, they just don’t mix. Keep working on it.

I now regret my first post denouncing replying to this thread. This has become one of the funniest threads ever. I doubt if I’ve ever seen people who’s self-esteem was inflated so far beyond their actual contributions.

Again, if you’re posting in the hopes of actual dialog, you’re tilting at windmills. But if you’re posting for amusement, by all means carry on!

You give suggestions for revison here
that I think make my stanza even worse.
But–pay attention, man, I think it’s obv:
your changes make my words not be verse (blank).

Daniel

All along I’ve been thinking “blowhard”. Now I see that it should have been the imperative - Blow Hard. Clearly in the making of balloon animals drmark2000 sucked.
