Good good morning!

[stoney321]

Busy little bee after a busy (but entertaining) weekend. BBQ with friends, gardening, an excellent bottle of Riesling, fresh berries, sleeping in. Boom. My weekend in a nutshell (minus the laundry, headache, and mowing)

Couple of things to give you a laugh:

"Old Jokes Updated To Make Them Even Older" I think the woman with a Ph.D is my fave. Entre? I'm automatically thinking of small rocks and a duck. "Ah! A man of science!"

Reason 4,937 to love love love Wikipedia: List of Neologisms on The Simpsons. (That would be "made up words.") Kwyjibo. I tend to not like fandom-based portmanteaux (Your Spillow, etc. where you smoosh two things together to make a new word, but like real world ones. Um, except things like "smish" and so forth. Too cutesy for me, because I'm a hateful old cow.)

I will only refer to it as BBBQ from now on: a combination of Bring Your Own Beer (BYOB) and BBQ (barbecue). "The extra 'B' is for BYOBB." What's that extra 'B' for? "Oh, that's a typo." Remember... remember when the Simpsons were funny¹? *sigh* Thank god for Family Guy. (South Park isn't even working me for me anymore. Hit or miss.) And Robot Chicken. All hail Seth Green. That has to be the best job ever: writing silly stuff with your friends and getting PAID for it. Best selling TV DVD right now. Good job, Oz. (Although he'll always be Scott Evil to me...) "Lemme tell ya little story 'bout a man named SHH!"

¹: Best day on live journal in 2004. marlo and I were going from memory. Good times... Good times.

Today is a day for Stevie Wonder (little disappointed no one got the Stevie reference last week) and being productive! Ron Burgundy coming later, for those playing... [/cryptic] Have a great day! Yay Monday! Fresh new day with no mistakes in it! *beams at you all*

"Lemme tell ya little story 'bout a man named SHH!" Heeeeee! I liked the 'Cause VII VIII IX' bit as well. Though it took me a moment to get. *cough*

Oh, the Simpsons! This made me think of you:
Prin. Skinner: ...but our momentary lapse of concentration allowed "Charlie" to get the drop on us. I spent the next three years in a POW camp, forced to subsist on a thin stew made of fish, vegetables, prawns, coconut milk, and four kinds of rice. I came close to madness trying to find it here in the States, but they just can't get the spices right!

Ahahahaha!! "Are you adequately prepared to ROCK?" Oh, Skinner.

"I saw Mrs. Crabapple and Principal Skinner in the closet! They were making babies! And one of the babies looked at me!"

Dude, I didn't comment on your picspam! Crap. The arboretum looks gorgeous! *goes to rememdy*

That elephant ate our entire platoon.

Having Seth Green's job would be perfection. Spending your days making each other laugh and it pays the bills as well... Can't have it any better, can you?

Buuurgundy! *F5s a_list till the button breaks*

HELLO!!! Seriously - that's my dream job: friends, funny and money.

(And Van's getting a shoutout, so dust her off. heh. Gimmie two hours from now as I need to go for a run and hit FedEx...)

RYE RUV ROO TOO, RORGE. Er, Marlo.

Dude, we've "known" each other for coming on 2 years! *hearts* You had a CRAZY FUN weekend! Sorry I didn't comment or chat with you - I was offline for most of the weekend - so sunny and glorious here right now.

Hey dude, no worries. I watched a few more episodes of Big Love, too, which always makes me think of you.

It's because of all my sister-wives and my long braid, isn't it?

:D

(And I am slowly getting over my aversion at seeing Bill Paxton sexed up. He will always be "Game Over, Man!" to me. And Chet from "Weird Science." Hahahaha!!)

Frisbeetarianism: the belief that when you die your soul goes up to the roof and gets stuck.

made up words are the bestest.

Those "old jokes" are great! My favorite was VII VIII IX, since we've heard that one in this house a LOT.

The Simpsons neologisms are wonderful -- we watch the Simpsons on an irregular basis, but this compilation reminds me of why it's such a great show. "Belly Fruit" made me laugh out loud!

My azalea isn't quite dead. Did the test you gave me and it's got some life in it still! Poor little brown shrub... got some green leaves near the bottom, with a few blossoms coming along. :-)

*smishes you*

*ducks*

(what is a smish anyway? what did I just do to you?)

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

HI HI!!

"smish" is squish + smash. I'm probably pissing people off with that statement, too, but I just don't do the cutesy words. I have issues. (I don't "glomp" either. I make sweet, sweet love to each and everyone of you.)

...are you laughing yet? BELLY FRUIT!! *laughs hard*

While I found parts of the Chef dies ep funny, it was SOOOO preachy. And yes, I know they mocked that. And the Oprah ep was just dumb. BUT.

"I'm therial. I'm really, really thuper therial!" has been utteres in my house nonstop since last Wednesday. They're just not all gems, Beth. They're... cubic zirconias sometimes. And while I used to hate with a fiery hot passion "Family Guy," I'm seriously loving it. I love the random shit (they don't all work) and I'm of the opinion that Seth Green is the new Harry Dean Stanton - WAIT. I'll explain.

Harry Dean Stanton - by virtue of himself - makes everything he's involved with better. Pretty in Pink is a good example. THAT MOVIE SUCKS. But. He makes it work. Seth Green made me watch Family Guy (he's Chris) and I heart him. I used to hate the Stewie character, and now I find him hilarious.

Are we gonna do this? *pulls out switchblade*

AHEM.
