well, i have the same fear, so i would say yes (and also that adrian got lazy about the individualisation of his figments).

I'm a vegetarian so I have to eat 'not-bacon' which is a soy product that kinda tastes like bacon. Suprisingly close!

Hey, hello. Adrian sent me over here. He's in the corner giggling like a mad eejit, pointing at the forum and saying something about people appreciating the "taste" of a "hairy banana".

I don't get it. What's funny 'bout that, Adrian?

Well...no answers there...just a laughing episode akin to seizure.

~sigh~ Sometimes I think that boy's not quite right in the head.

Cheers,
Marc (I don't like bananas. I like mangoes)

Boy, where DOES the time (and date) go?

Usually, at least three months back, to bypass the trial date for shareware. -- But anyway, yes, we have no bananas... we have NO bananas today? But how true is that. I have no idea, especially about the hairy banana thing. Bananas Foster? Not quite, but pretty much anything w/ chocolate on it. Even better if it's flambeau(X?).

I do know about the taste of fuzzy fish, which is not quite what you'd expect. Fish should not taste fishy... if it does, your sushi is NOT fresh, go hit the showers. Only Gortons' can attest to that, but they don't make sushi, so it's a moot point.

Hm... there's something fishy going on here. (... remind me to tell you about the time we got thrown out of the Boston Aquarium... something about having several drinks on a walk-about and thinking it was a self-serve sushi bar. It's quite fuzzy in my memory, but it did taste fresh. And aside from the eels, did no taste fishy.)

zelda_pinwheel · 10-24-2009, 07:29 PM

well, well. so that's where you've been ? on improvisational do-it-yourself sushi tours of the boston aquarium ? listen boyo, if you think that sort of thing will get you the same kind of respect around here as a good recipe for zany carters, a steady hand for pouring, and a well-oiled trebuchet with precise launch coordinates, well, you may have been eating one (hovercraft) too many eels.

seriously though, pull up a chair and let me get you a cocktail.

*A* cocktail? I know that ploy... that's how it starts. First it's "pull up a chair and let me get you a cocktail", then it's "wanna come up stairs and see my etchings", then it's pure horror because, really, that's happened. I mean, ETCHINGS!? Who the blank even HAS etchings these days, much less admits it in public? Here I am anticipating at least a guilty conscience, and then it's all "and this was from his 'black' period, before his sainted aunt left him her box of Crayolas..."
Etchings! PAH! Well, at least it's better than "So, now that I have you alone, have you ever considered being in business for yourself? I represent an internationally known company who encourages entrepreneurship... they have many different products, and one day you can be a black diamond with over 50 platinum memberecs and... what? NO! I never MENTIONED AMWAY! Well, yes, it IS Amway, but really, they're respec- WAIT! COME BACK! DID I TELL YOU ABOUT MY ETCHINGS???"

No thanks. Well, I'll just have that one... Mm... GIN!

zelda_pinwheel · 11-04-2009, 09:21 PM

i knew you couldn't resist a cocktail.

i promise i won't mention any etchings. although my neighbor mentioned he has a very impressive stamp collection, and if you are interested, i am sure he'd be happy to show both of us. he's been offering to show it to me for months, but somehow we always run into each other at the most inconvenient times. alternately, would you like me to give you a demo of my various liseuses ? i've got the sony 600 in gorgeous red, and a few others besides... well, i say a few... not that many really. almost too few to mention. hm, your glass is nearly empty, here, let me top it up for you.

you know what i love about you, lazy scot ? your perspicacity.

(amongst your many, many qualities, obviously, which i won't list here because the forum soft-ware prohibits posts that long.)

mvisconte · 11-07-2009, 11:29 PM

Now that's scary... "now go and update your av lines..." sounds suspiciously like "make sure your shots are up to date". Oh, not (A)nti-(V)irus? You know, yull never cats me nupdatin my anniviris. Is it hot innear?

Toppy off my dink? Tanks. Whyza room all fuzzy? Iss like yer horrizonal an verdigle got all mesh up. Stampsh? Cancel da stampsh! Mark it all fra gilly. An smash the hell outda it. Lige clockwork. Samp an smash, samp an smass. I think I godda lay down. Onna flowr here. I don' be neebuddy's way, juss for a min...

(Sadly, that's pretty much what happened, once, a long, long time ago. Now, I just prop up against the wall.)

don't worry, zany carters have that effect on everybody. it's just that we seasoned veterans know enough to stick close to a wall, or better yet to strap ourselves to a chair before ordering. other than that, how was the ride ?
