One thing I would NEVER say in an Eve thread:

Everyone just loved my Navy blue suit with my beige blouse and shoes.

Am I in line ahead of you, or behind you?

Something I’ll never say:

“Theda Bara’s Cleopatra? Good film, even better kindling.”

[faints dead away]

See what I mean, ladies and gentlemen?

For the record, the Gov has never used a movie as kindling, although there are some that might be improved that way…

Well, yeah, but you have to realize that you’re talking to the type of guy who eats beans straight from the can while standing over the sink.

I had to look up “lorgnette” too.

Ex, dear…we allhad to look up “lorgnette.” I thought it was a support garment!…you know…“Honey, are my lorgnettes straight?” or “my lorgnettes are stabbing me in the ribs!” or “Do these lorgnettes make my ass look big?”

Something I would never dream of saying in an Eve thread, (ok, maybe just a little).

Hey Eve, I was lookin’ at my jeenieology, and you and me is cuzzins! :smiley:

No, dear, but they make your ass look big . . .

Back to the OP, the Pwincess is not an evil person by any means—and I do work with some evil people. It’s just that voice: that godawful, sticky-sweet, nails-on-a-blackboard voice!

“Nah. I’m waiting for the Eddie Murphy version.”

Tin can, right?

Please, God, not the toilet.

<snerk> <snerk> HEH HEH.

Oh gawd my sense of humor has turned into an eight year old boy!

I need a beer, now!

I’m with ya’ on those opera gloves, Swampy. The only thing more disturbing than seeing some opera matron look like she’s about to preg check a cow while gripping a lorgnette is seeing one looking like she’s about to preg check a cow while gripping a monocle.

And how, pray tell, are we to examine the baby cow if not with our lorgnette? Then we fashion a lasso from our pearls . . .

Style and practicality. This is what makes you our Eve.

Yeah, ol’ Eve’s allright. I wouldn’t kick her out of my terlet for eatin’ beans.

What I’ve never dared to say in an Eve thread:

Bump
Heh heh, you said member.
New Jersey Fundies rule!*
I liked Rebecca. The character, not the movie.
(in re: someone newly dead) Who?

*please accept my sincere apologies if this causes any unpleasant memories.

Hillbilly queen, have you moved to that house over the hedge next door? Good lord!

Things I would never say in an Eve thread: “Who is Lilyan Tashman?” “I’ve given up ice cream.” “My fainting couch is being reupholstered.”

C’mon, everybody knows what lorgnettes are. They’re little tiny, um … lorgs.
