You see, everyone? Exactly as I suspected! He shouldn't even be in that operating theatre, yet alone smoking any kind of substance in there! I am shocked. This "Dr. Drib" character sounds like the worst kind of trickster, leading all our societys' dear, sweet, innocent 16 year olds astray with his theatrical infringements and toadying to the huckster-cries of eccentric tobacconists.

Shocked, is what I am.

You'd have to catch Roger first, and I heard he prefers a French Polish. He'd probably go a good sonnet or two though, no matter how it's applied (preferably one that goes for less than four minutes though).

Bikini wax? Really?

Keep the pipe, it is always a good device for pointing at people when you make a point; however, in cyberspace no one can see you point if you get my point. It may be pointless at this point to point out that the whole point of your point was the point that many people feel that there is no point in glamorizing smoking.

This is pointless as recent studies point out that about 20% of the US still smoke. (Down from about 45% fifty years ago.)

What was your point again?

i'd like to point out that rwood is a silly, silly man. easily as silly as the doctor himself. with or without a pipe. (although i do sometimes wonder if he's smoking something, and what, exactly....)

RWood · 09-21-2008, 09:46 AM

I resemble that remark!

nekokami · 09-21-2008, 09:57 AM

I'm pretty sure the answer is "yes," no matter what he's smoking....

Smoked turkey?

vivaldirules · 09-21-2008, 10:33 AM

I'd keep the pipe, Dr. Dribbles. Once you've made you're point (see RWood's succinct description above), if someone still disagrees with you, you can just gas him.

Your (ahem

) comments remind me of the old Carol Burnett show, where they said things like, "Are you a stranger, stranger? You sure look strange..."

I get your point Don.

People should try not to make so many pointed remarks.

The Dr is using the icon of a very strange "religion" that a friend of mine is really big on. I have an e-mail in to him to get the details, so I'll post it when it arrives. Prepare thyselves for a Montsnmags length posting, if my recollection of the whole thing is correct.

zelda_pinwheel · 09-22-2008, 09:26 AM

or you could just check their website...

Jeebus! Missionaries these days don't go to the same lengths they used to do they? That 80's movie with the Ennio Morricone soundtrack and the goodfella and the Guaraní mob would have been much shorter if the Jesuits had just sent out an all-tribes spam bulletin: Convert, or die (and also, no prescription required, keep it up all night from midnight mass until dawn service, and meet the virgin of your dreams by clicking on this link). Genius, yeah?

Wait, what? "Montsnmags length"? Are you trying to sell me something, because if you are I'll have you know I'm perfectly satisfied with my current physical attributes, thank you very much!

Cheers,
Marc (Psst, pshrynk! I'll take as many as you've got!)
