the second biggest thread ever

[Nuzzolese]

Aim for mediocrity and second place is an easy chair of not straining yourself.

Getting dressed each day, picking an outfit, is starting to become a chore. That's one of those things I hate trying with. I don't want to try too hard, but if I don't try at all I rarely look good.

Cooking food is also one of those things where if I try too hard, it never results in food of such quality to match the effort I put into it. It's usually better when I'm spontaneous and go on instinct.

Some things are just instinct; jokes, relationships, hairstyles. Trying too hard just flubs. I'm comfortable feeling securely anonymous in not being the best, having the best, teetering precariously on the ambiguous peak of perfection...instead just doing what works for me, makes me comfortable, and in that way is perfect in a not-too perfect sort of way.


Your turn. Ramble on.

[Nuzzolese]

Don't worry, we won't get confused, because this thread will be totally different than THAT one. That one is full of random thoughts. This one, will be full of pointless anouncements. Apples and Oranges.

Speaking of which, has anyone played Apples to Apples? I've heard a ton of people say it's fun but I've never played it.

[cookiepuss]

I think we need to step outside for a moment honey.....*throws off gloves and puts dukes up*

[Nuzzolese]

I swear to Garry this thread will be the second biggest one ever if I have to post in it all by my garrydamn lonesome. Any comments I have for any other threads I will place in here. This will be the transcript of the unedited hell that is the inside of my brain.

Good luck on your mission with this thread.

[Nuzzolese]

I'll probably give it up by 4:00PM today. That's 16:00 to you!

[cookiepuss]

there can be only one....

[TAL]

4pm there is actually midnight here.

[Nuzzolese]

I'm not trying to steal your laurel or crown or whatever, scepter, what have you. Don't you see? I want to be your Prince Harry.

[Nuzzolese]

4pm there is actually midnight here.

I meant like, clockwise...but not clockwise as in the opposite of counterclockwise, I meant... in the realm of clocks. I meant a translation of 4pm.

I know you did, just trying to get this thread up to second place.

I'm sorry, I've seen the highlander too many times. I guess loping off your head would be over reacting wouldn't it? :o

Getting dressed each day, picking an outfit, is starting to become a chore. That's one of those things I hate trying with. I don't want to try too hard, but if I don't try at all I rarely look good.

Do you find that certain times of year, it's easier? Like, do you have a favorite season for outfits that makes it less of an effort at trying to look good, you just DO look good?

[Nuzzolese]

My boyfriend's dad divorced my bf's mom and remarried and had kids, he had a son and gave him the same middle name as my boyfriend. I think that's fucked up.

[avignon]

I'm making my protest sign now. What should it say?

[Nuzzolese]

I know you did, just trying to get this thread up to second place.

I preciate that. I value sincere efforts without spam. You know, an actual 20 page paper instead of reiteration and triple spacing in a large font.

[Nuzzolese]

We can fight if you want, but if you lop off my head the ensuing electrical storm could be scary.

the week after my period.

[Freebasser]

If you're so set upon being second best, then why did you go out of your way to create this thread when you could just be lazy and have someone else do it?

[avignon]

My boyfriend's dad divorced my bf's mom and remarried and had kids, he had a son and gave him the same middle name as my boyfriend. I think that's fucked up.
I'm guessing "Joe".

[TAL]

I agree, that's why I haven't posted in that so-called biggest thread.

[Nuzzolese]

Do you find that certain times of year, it's easier? Like, do you have a favorite season for outfits that makes it less of an effort at trying to look good, you just DO look good?

Winter is the easiest I think, the easiest to look decent but boring, or maybe Fall. Summer is harder to be comfortable because I have so few hot weather clothes that are work appropriate, and it might be air conditioned in there. And those inbetween days in the Spring, when it's cold in the morning but hot in the afternoon, are torture - because you have to have a sweater or jacket that you can remove, you have to coordinate layers.

[Nuzzolese]

If you're so set upon being second best, then why did you go out of your way to create this thread when you could just be lazy and have someone else do it?

I value a modest effort.

[Nuzzolese]

I'm guessing "Joe".

Nope, it's longer than that and doesn't start with a J. In my opinion it's a name for a skinny pale skinned little boy in short pants.

[Freebasser]

Modest effort? Pshhhht...

I think I need to start a third biggest thread ever.

[kll]

oh, "Aidan" of course.

[Nuzzolese]

oh, "Aidan" of course.

That DOES sound like the boy I imagine!
That was one of the 10 most popular names for baby boys in 2005. But that's not it. This one has 3 syllables and doesn't start with a vowel.

[Freebasser]

now that's an original idea

oh, "Aidan" of course.

Fuck off.

[mp-seventythree]

I feel rather at home in this thread, I'm one of those people who are so good at coming second (that's why the ladies like me)

[jabumbo]

what really consitutes "work appropriate"? i mean, i have to wear slacks and a collared shirt, but i work in anoffice with 4 other people, and never really communicate with anyone else unless it's via telephone. so should it really matter what i am wearing if i get the job done?

[avignon]

Fuck off.
baby

[Freebasser]

Fuck off.

Aim for mediocrity and second place is an easy chair of not straining yourself.

I'm comfortable feeling securely anonymous in not being the best, having the best, teetering precariously on the ambiguous peak of perfection...instead

and it always is like this isnt it, everyday, everything is so everyday, common, boring, sedative because of the way we dont want to go further than mediocrity. but not just when were sitting in suits and ties and leather chairs and looking at a presentation...it shuold be a concern or an interest in every aspect,the conversations, the noting something on the sales lady, you know, all that stupid crazily interesting crap.

but then, it goes beyond that, its like an unwritten law that everything we do, its not going to be our best, becasue its today, and today nothing special is happening, we have that hammered into our brains, that today is a day like everday, well it fucking isnt, get it straight and realize it. we have that dreamy, fantasy image of the future, as if the future is so magical and special and holds so much. meanwhile, the present doesnt get enough credit. the right now.

and so it ties in with emotion, which is probably why i have so much attachment to it in every aspect of life. i like the more emotional music, the more emotional conversations, maybe i even have an interest in observing ourselves during emotional times in life. maybe i should also just give up on the exterior, live in a transparent glass square, and have someone pass me food through a flap door, and i will stare blankly at my glass square for the rest of my life while i just think, because, its sometimes so simply sufficient, isnt it? isnt it?

why yes, yes it is.

I started reading the bible; the book of Marksomething. Jesus performs miracles. BoRING! This is the Good News Translation. I once started trying to read the King James version. I think New Living might be a better one.

I was advised to read Bantam's translation of Siddhartha, above others.

Even if I could afford it, I would never wear Tiffany heart jewelry or LV logo bags these days. I'd probably buy them because I'm a sucker, but I'd never wear them because of how many skank ass hoes drape themselves in it and in the fakes. However, I do own some Baby Phat and JLo. I'm shameless but I'm cheap.

[Nuzzolese]

I hate that the forum is purged randomly. Good threads get purged. This is why no one wants to put any effort into anything around here, Zippo! It's transient! People do have faith in the future only and not in the present. They want to be remembered and to be permanent. They want a legacy. Badass threads I made two months ago are gone, but a dumbass post from last year still remains.

I have a LV wallet and purse from when I was 16. I haven't taken it out of the cobwebs because of the popularity. I don't know anyone with the Tiffany heart jewelry. Someone must buy that stuff...

I don't trust cmute rhyme anymore after this whole alias thing was percieved to be such a good case against this person. Overexposure. You'll never be granted honest and open reception with suspicion hovering around you.

Not that you are going to care about any of the following but I haven't read Siddhartha, though I have seen a special on TV about him. Someone traveled following the path of Siddhartha Guatama. It was interesting how in India, you get this image of a historical man and Hindu reformist, then as you follow the path deeper into Asia, he gets mutated into this chubby God who magically disappeared from the Earth. But that's probably not all of the story.

Historically, Siddhartha Guatama didn't believe in reincarnation. To clear up debate about his teachings he said: "Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense."

Well, there are many buddhist teachings. The buddha grew up with strong formal religion all around him, so he wanted to avoid religion and doctrine. If you ever dig into the teachings, you'll always hear that buddhism is not a religion but instead it is a system/practice. So, rather than saying "Follow me for I am the light..." or claiming that his teachings were the light, he said his most famous quote: "Be lamps unto yourselves." Buddhism is supposed to be the system by which you figure out the questions yourself. So, as in all things, different people need different things. Reincarnation, Hinayana, Mahayana, Tantrayana, whatever method that asshole Psyzmajerk claims to follow which caused him lose jobs and friends, as he is apt to boast. Different strokes for different folks I suppose. But always, always be a lamp.

I love lamp.

A few of my favorite lines from the first Batman

"Now do you wanna get nuts? Come on! Let's get nuts!"

"Wait'll they get a load of me"

"ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?"

"Uh oh...looks like they've been using brand EXsssssss"

"Never rub another man's rubarb"

I watched it a few months ago and realized that I had completely blotted out that scene when he takes Vicki to the batcave from my memory. That whole "it doesn't have to be a perfect world/ we can love" scene.

I hate when you repeat the dolphin joke. It was never funny! Yeah, that's right. Never. And not just because it was supposed to be teasing me. If I wasn't me I still wouldn't think it was funny.

[Nuzzolese]

People are so defensive here. Always insisting that they are in fact super cool and smart and they have it together and they're onto you, they get your joke, they know what's going on...take themselves so surrious. Not everyone, it's like a general vibe I get. Tense, insistent, defensive. Maybe it's just me. And when I say maybe it's just me I don't say it the sarcastic way, I mean it sincerely. It very well could just be me. Get off my case!!!

[Bob]

i have no personal relation to the dolphin joke and even i didn't think it was funny

and i'll laugh at anything!

[fucktopgirl]

well what point did you missed,lamps is it hard to get the point of that??

i totally understand Nuzz post,i just decide to go on the stupid ,light way instead of going in the deep path of things!

Bob is in fact not a very nice person and we like him anyway because he is not aggressive, not even passive aggressive.

that's the great thing about him. he could be the biggest bitch in the world but one bat of the eyelashes and everyone would coo and aww and "oh, that's just bob. he's harmless!" as he tells everyone what you've got crawling out of your cooch behind your back.

[kll]

Now we know why he made it to 1,000 posts... repeating stuff... there should be laws against such waste...

[Nuzzolese]

I know that, but that's what I do, repeat stuff. The real issue is that I don't even think it's funny, but then that kind of makes it funny. Anyway, please talk more about Batman.

Oh you KNOW that already. how properly defensive for an ALIAS! I mean, if you can't even respect us enough to be yourself and not hide behind masks, how can you expect us to give you any credit? Did you want to start fresh again and try to win people over from a clean record? Don't we all wish we could have done that at some time in our lives. But you make your bed and you have to let people sleep with you in it.

Not that it matters, but fall is my favorite clothing season because it's really easy to jump out of bed and put on anything in my closet and have it work. You can't go wrong in the fall.

[marsdaddy]

Psyzmajerk seems a bit tense and defensive all at once.

I don't have seasonal clothes, really. I do have seasonal jackets, though. I have a light-weight jacket for summer, a water-resistant jacket for winter, and I wear no jacket in spring and fall.

I knew it was the hover thing, but since I don't post in the biggest thread ever I couldn't say it. Should've sent a PM.

I am loving Project Runway this season. That one guy, Andre, is a major drama queen. Did you see his train wreck melt down on the clothes-off-your back judging?! And what about Santino! Ego the size of Texas and talent he size of Wyoming. I can't believe they got Nicky Hilton to be one of the judges, bitch talking bout how her standards and taste are impeccable and high. Do you know anyone who buys her bags? The dress she chose as the winner was raggedy and lopsided looking. Marla needs to be out, she's a good business woman but not a designer. She copied a dress and then tried to copy another designer's model's hairstyle!

[Nuzzolese]

I'm reading a crime novel called The Killer Inside Me, by Jim Thompson. It's pretty good. A little campy but well written. A "friendly simple" sherrif in a little Texas Town has "the sickness" that makes him want to kill. He pretends to be the average joe nice guy, everyone's pal, not too deep - but actually he's extremely smart and cunning and cruel. Things are coming to a head now near the end. This guy also wrote The Grifters which became a movie, and Kubrick and Stephen King both had good things to say about him as a writer.

[Nuzzolese]

When a parody stops being funny, and dies for a little while, but continues to trudge along, does it start being funny again, or does it transform into something else, or does it just gradually trudge slower and slower until it barely seems to be moving at all and then stops?

This thread I mean, which isn't exactly a parody as much as it was just a whim of a stupid idea to help save time for me having to look for relavent topics into which I can insert whatever is on my mind, bullshitting my way through a charade of it making contextual sense.

I've eaten fried lamb testicles before. And it wasn't that bad. It was at a deli I worked at. My girlfriend came by to say hello and I was going to kiss her goodbye at her car and my boss shouted (across the parking lot) "Carol! Don't kiss him, he had balls in his mouth!" Lots of people looked and laughed. As did I...the laughing part.

Why would you eat testicles? I suppose the native americans ate them. It is said they wasted no part of the buffalo. The tatanka.

[Rock]

I think a good amount of cultures do that....mainly eastern ones. I did it, cause I was curious. I figured if I was ever gonna experiment with any testicles besides my own, they might as well be cooked. So yeah...I've had balls in my mouth.

There's frequently been times throughout my life where there is no suitable music to my mood. I've searched and sampled and put up with a lot of near-misses, but nothing that nails those various moods.

I am of the opinion that those gaps must be filled.

Music is the food of life. Play on.

Don't you hate oversleeping when you didn't get much sleep in the first place? I do. I feel so lost and confused. I stand like a drunk in front of the mirror or in front of the closet, not knowing what I'm supposed to do next, running late as it is. Feels like predictable failure.

[Nuzzolese]

My old home-town haven't seen him in a while Sheriff friend is the zaniest man I'll ever know, who puts more effort into jokes and pranks than in anything else in his entire life. My brother used to live with him and that's how I got to know him so well. I went over there once and he had tacked up my brother's clothes on the wall like the shirt over the pants, and some shoes on the floor, and they stuck a paper plate frowny face over the shirt and they said it was so they could rule (that's like pwn) him when he wasn't at home. One time they taped bubble wrap all over his room.
I figured out why he was like this one summer when I oddly went grocery shopping with him and his dad for a BBQ. We each went in search of items in different directions. I got everything on my list, and then went to where we were supposed to meet in the soda section. I waited for a few minutes with him and then his dad poked his hand out from behind a bunch of coke cases and grabbed my arm, yelling, "BRWWWWAAA!!"
He didn't even do his half of the shopping, he said it took him like ten minutes to rearrange the coke cases, and people kept looking at him.
He was like, 57. Being raised by that buffoon, there is absolutly no limit to the amount of the time he'd put into a joke.

[Nuzzolese]

That was terrible.

I think it's funnier when you're Canadian

Jesus' Son is a good movie. Billy Crudup is a good actor. Watch it. It has Jack Black and Holly Hunter and Dennis Hopper in small roles. Also stars Samantha Morton. Gotta catch up with biggest thread EVER.

Poor wittle bunny wabbits.

[Nuzzolese]

Have you noticed how when guys are fooling around with a woman and telling a woman what do they normally refer to their dicks as It, e.g. suck it. Whereas women often often refer to their lady parts as me, e.g. eat me. I think this illustrates an important difference in the way that men and women view sex. Because men view their junk as a seperate entity. I mean, look at it. It looks like something that latched on after wading through a swamp. It's airline policy not to imply ownership in the event of a penis.

[Nuzzolese]

Poor wittle bunny wabbits.

Robert Crumb. I saw his documentary, CRUMB, about his life. I have seen his comics. I kind of.. don't get it. Other than him being expressive of himself in his comics, and how risque the images and suggestions, I don't see the big deal. Maybe that is the only big deal. But even that, I don't see as much of a deal. Did he further the art of comics? Is that it? Did he elevate comics into a socially relevent medium for expression and consciousness raising?

I don't find his comics to be very deep. Just the candid ideas of a guy with a few obsessions. I find most of them to be repulsive. I guess maybe I'm just a prude. I can't even imagine why they would be considered so revolutionary when they don't appear to me to say anything your average teenage boy wouldn't say. Or is it that he was bold enough to say it, and draw it, and that was revolutionary enough?

What is your opinion of R. Crumb and his art work, his comics? Why were they so relevant? Why are they still considered relevant?

He challenged the ideals of traditional society and the hippies, with a kind of nihilism, an honest admition of being self centered. I guess that's it? He was amusing? Meh? He drew his insecurities and obsessions. Mostly I'm disgusted by his comics.

On a recent September afternoon, I was pleased to vist the Easter States Exposition in Springfield, Massachusetts. "The Big E," as you perhaps know, is the great culmination of teh country fair season in New England. Like many such fairs, it features the display of prize fowl and livestock, local handicrafts, ingeniously fried foods, and a full, mechanized carnival featuring various rides that have been hastily assembled by angry and careless men.
It was a fine day. I saw a cow being milked by a robot. I watched recently hatched chicks in a great incubator as they lay, helpless and drenched in albumen, breathing heavily and attempting to stand. These chicks seemed to be trying to say something to me, but I could not hear them over the terrified sobbing of the children next to me. Then I went to watch the lobster judging.

That was nicely writ. I fancy the cut of your jib and delight in the possibilities of lobster judging. Where's your signature from? What's your name? What's your age? Where you live at? Who you going with? How long did you stay in Massachusetts? Would a recent September afternoon mean the most recent September? I guess it would have too, recent being subjective and September being three point seventy five months ago.

My attempt at this thread isn't succeeding the way I hoped it would. *sniff* story of my life

It is nearly impossible to be or find a person with a truly unique and self-designed personality. The idea you have of yourself, who you think you are and what you think you like, are given to you by the media and commercialism. Do you think you are actually responsible for what you enjoy and what you find attractive? You are told what you like, when you like it, and how you like it. You are told who you are and who you want to be, who you SHOULD be. And you're not told this by your parents unless it means they are simply the translators for you, translating what the consumer culture tells them they want their children to be like, what THEY want to be. Do you think those ethics, morals, values, standards you carry around with you are anything more than another product that you've bought, just as much of a product as the shoes you wear and the computer you use that you value as indicators of your identity? "Do you think that's air you're breathing?"

Does anyone ever see that single shoe on the side of the road or highway? How the fuck does it get there? I see one every couple of days. I only recall seeing a pair twice...but those damn single ones I see all the time.
Does someone just decide to throw their shoe out the window? Does someone take the shoe off of someone else and throw it out? I don't see that happening often because you would think someone would stop the other person from taking off their shoe. Its weird.

People are sometimes abducted by invisible aliens who have traveled through time. They take people of our time, hop through a dimension, and drop that person off in another dimension someplace in the future wear you only need one leg.

I like it. That shit sounds smooth. What shall I call you?

You shan't call me.

I was walking down the street yesterday, past this brand new white ford explorer. I heard a "smash" and looked and saw a huge dent on the cars hood and a smashed can of soup on the ground..it looked like some sort of chowder or cream of whatever.

So I quickly deduce that the sky is not falling and that its not hailing soup, I look up at the apt building next to this vehicle and there is a man hanging out with multiple soup cans in each hand...he is screaming at another man hanging otu the window on the other side of the street..like 8 stories up or whatever.

I didn't witness anymore soup throwing, but I got out of there as quick as I could. Soup as a wepon is awsome.

[Nuzzolese]

What the fuck is up with Olive Garden? Boycott that shit. Any of those Striped Awning restaurants too. Ruby Tuesdays. TGIFridays, Olive Garden, Cheddars, Chilis, Shenanigans, Flingers, Felchers, HumpDays, Happy Mondays, TugjobThursdays...whatever they're all called! They are the same fucking restaurant with a lot of random shit on the walls and chicken in every recipe and a ton of stupid appetizers.

[TAL]

I just got home from a pub.

[Nuzzolese]

Monsieur that is amazing! Lucky you!

[Nuzzolese]

You click on the 5 to get to my last page, but for the longest thread ever you click on the mysterious "LAST PAGE" which to me can only suggest it's more than 5 pages long.

[TAL]

Monsieur that is amazing! Lucky you!

I know, it doesn't happen that often.

[Nuzzolese]

Shut the fuck up TAL!! This thread is going to be quality AND quantity. None of that nonsense you dish out like stale mac and cheese mmkay? Step it up a notch! Do you see that little girl over there doing chin-ups? She's got more heart and guts than you ever could! Now get your face in the mud, maggot! From now on I am God. I am your mother, your sister, your best friend, and I am the last and only person you are to obey. Forget about your home and MaryJane Rottencrotch back there.

[Nuzzolese]

I think I'm going to be a Christian.

What they played on the jukebox:

Britney Spears
S Club 7
Shaggy
Led Zeppelin

[Nuzzolese]

Britney Spears
S Club 7
Shaggy
Led Zeppelin

My faves!

[TAL]

I don't like mac and cheese.

[Nuzzolese]

You should die now.

[TAL]

I know, but still I don't.

[Nuzzolese]

I guess that'll do, as long as you don't go on another American tour and annoy/creep out any more female board members.

[TAL]

Peoria is my next stop.

[Nuzzolese]

And it would be your last too, because I'd kill you and stuff your body into a wood chipper. Do you think I have a conscience!? Do you think I even break a sweat when blood is on my hands and your heart's still beating? You know why I'd do it? Because I'd have a few spare hours before dinner time and I haven't picked a new book yet.

[TAL]

Would you let me send postcards before that? Or would all who know me have to live without knowing?

[Nuzzolese]

Do you think people would even notice?

[TAL]

2 out of 7 probably.

Thank you. I did not write it though. It goes on to discribe how lobsters use to look like beavers back in the days of old and how kids would bring the lobsters to judging on leashes. The signature is from you as a matter of fact! My name is Echewta but people outside of the internet tend to refer to me as Abe Froman which makes men of the gay sector raise an eyebrow much to my misfortune. I have never stayed in Massachusetts but I have in Oklahoma. It was during a raging storm and I had to park a trailer. Took me an hour because I had no experience parking a trailer. I was born in September but celebrate the holidays on the months that most people do.

that's crazy

Posts #131 and #132 as one conjoined entity have amused me considerably.

I don't want to be one of those jackasses who unfairly cheated abortion and continue to exist, plaguing the board with nothing but lame compliments, e-groping and stale humor, though.

So...

I like pretzels. (y)

[Nuzzolese]

I like watching gay cowboys eat pudding. Barry and LaVohn, get your asses in that pudding.

[mickill]

Tungtvann just brought this thread that mysterious "last page" element it was so sorely missing.

[Bob]

i'll show you last page
