Next time he sticks his tongue in your mouth, stick your tongue (the 
tongue you will now go and out and buy) down his throat when he's 
sleeping.
  -Funky J

The world's dumbest female is, of course, Lois Lane.
  -Chris Wayne  (come back to us!)

I work with a guy named Chad. He's got kind of a beer gut. And so, now 
and for all eternity, he will hereby be known as Pregnant Chad.
  -Chris Wayne  (topical!)

What fun is that? Reopening old wounds is one of my hobbies.
  -Chris Wayne

You gotta love a film that fills you with homicidal curiousity.
  -Chris Wayne

"There are only two reasons for voting LIBERTARIAN: Click OKAY of 
you're a dope fiend, CANCEL if you like pornography." I think I need 
to come up with a way to connect two mice (mouses?) at one :)
  -Josh Smith

My aunt apparently slipped my dad some tongue on her wedding night.
  -Josh Smith  (eww!)

Someone please kill Fraboni. I'll be your best friend. And for some of 
you that's pretty impressive.
  -Jennifer Lynn Larkin

The only thing that's contagious... is my ATTITUDE! gotta DANCE!
  -Nathan Winant

Best line from a holiday song: "Santa, get off of my girlfriend."
  -Mary Hodges

Alright. That does it. Mary has just been officially declared An 
Incomplete Perl Simulation of Mr Urc. Jonathan, did you program Mary 
just so I'd have someone to fight over you with?
  -Jennifer Lynn Larkin

Terri C. Sheep has been swearing to kill my for close to six years 
now.  She's even given me notes and pictures with her LIES written all 
over them.  But that's just what they are.  Lies.  And now...And now 
I'm drowing in a sea of broken promises wondering when, oh god _when_, 
will it all finally end...
  -litho

of course, I was going to bonk you to death, but now you've betrayed 
me like all the other women in my life, I'll just have to give you 
cancer and let you die slowly, like the rest of them...
  -Funky J

I saw a book in the bookstore yesterday named "JAVA POOP." Well, I'll 
never forget the name.
  -Jennifer Lynn Larkin

Well, I do like chicken-fried steak. But my family tree hasn't 
included inbreeding for probably more than six generations....
  -Jennifer Lynn Larkin

I wish Terri C. Sheep would swear to kill me :(
  -Josh Smith

Maybe I have to kill you.  Maybe then my life will become 100% happy.
  -Alloni Kramer

I had heard that there was going to be an anti-bush rally down at the 
capitol. Assuming that there would eventually be either drugs or a 
riot, we decided to head on down.
  -Nathan Winant

After a moment, we realized that they were both holding Bush/Cheney 
signs. And then we realized that they were both chanting 
pro-Bush/Cheney slogans. At each other. The bush supporters were 
protesting... each other. I shall always remember that as the exact 
moment at which I realized just how pathetic Gore's loss truly was.
  -Nathan Winant

My understanding is that they run a very similar game at the local 
post office, only they call it "find the man in the picture". I 
understand there's a very sizeable cash prize, but I suspect I'm 
ineligible for it.
  -Nathan Winant

Depends.  Lemme see a picture of you.  If you're attractive, I'd 
rather have sex with you than kill you. On the other hand, if you're 
attractive and turn me down for sex, then we move back into the 
killing range. On the other other hand, who would dare turn me down 
for sex?
  -Alloni Kramer

Nathan... You are here for my amusement, you didn't know that?  I'm 
sorry I forgot to tell you.  I hope there are no hard feeling between 
us.  Please forgive me. Now, Mr. Kramer asked for something and I 
haven't seen it posted yet...  Dance, monkey boy.  Dance!
  -Jason

Sex first.  Kill later.
That's very narrow-minded of you.
-Alloni 'n Chris Hmmmmm......maybe sex with you WOULD kill me. Then we would both get something out of it. I'd have what I want, and you would have something wild to brag about. -Mary Hodges Hmmmm....I have heard several men recently comment on the joys of scratching their balls. What, pray tell, is so wondrous about that? -Mary Hodges "Of course you are. Your eyes are like pearls, their irises gold-flecked opals. Your cheeks are chiseled from the finest inlaid ivory, your lips are Chateau Petrus. Your breasts are the finest gorgonzola, and your nipples are flickable diamonds. Just imagine how much money you would have if you hocked all that stuff down at the thrift shop." -Jennifer Lynn Larkin quoting jm.jm God. We would never hear the end of that. "Well, but that isn't nearly as impressive as when I fucked Mary to death." "The funniest thing happened while I was boinking Mary to death..." "Oh yeah... That was the night Mary died, nudge nudge wink wink." He'd be incorrigible. I forbid it. I don't want to want to die. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Repressed feelings, like dead bodies, always surface eventually. Even when they're weighted with concrete and you've stabbed hundreds of holes into them. Unless you eviscerate them first. But I digress. -Chris Wayne Lies could only help my reputation, I'm afraid. Spread away. Besides, most of the scathing things you could say aren't exactly lies. Except that thing with Emperor Hirohito's corpse. I never did that. -Chris Wayne Please don't drag me into your delusions. -Chris Wayne well, they're kinda ticklish, kinda sexually arousing, and just kinda itchy. 3 sensations in one! -Funky J I guarantee its not as fun to scratch your armpits as it is to scratch your nuts. -ghostxxx Speaking of scary, I saw Caligula last night. Amazing. Orgy scenes that were not the least bit arousing. Nor would they have bene arousing if Malcom McDowwel hadn't been walking around in them yelling "Five gold coins for every twenty minutes!" -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Unfortunately, sex with me has yet to kill anyone. We could try it and see what happened, though. -Alloni Kramer I'm all for gambling, but not when it comes to my death. I want a sure thing. -Mary Hodges Today I caught myself singing the all-time polka favorite "Roll Out the Barrels" except I was singing "roll out the bowels". I think I need to have myself checked. Soon. Very soon. "We'll have a bowel of fun!" -Chris Wayne Are you being sarcastic or honest?
There's a difference?
-Jennifer 'n Chris Do the Jews take off with your penis once a month?
hrmph. I don't want to talk about it.
-Jennifer 'n Chris I remember seeing Dack Rambo on there once. In case you don't know the name, he was a soap opera star in the mid-80s and one of the first celebrities to publicly admit being HIV+ before getting sick. And, of course, he shortly thereafter became a born-again Christian (odd how facing almost certain death does that to people). So Pat asks him if he knows where he got the virus from. And he says "From a man, from a woman, who knows? I used to sleep with pretty much anything that moved" or something to that effect. Stunned silence. Pat and his big- haired co-hostess just froze with big goofy Jesus-loves-you smiles and said nothing. The interview pretty much fell apart after that. -Chris Wayne Now since when did I ever say Jen was/is paranoid? I've agreed with Garth that she's a bit of a hypochondriac maybe. But never paranoid. And what if I said that the sky is blue during the daytime? Or that lo mein is chinese for soft noodles? This could be fun, actually. -Josh Smith CW, guide me in your manner of systematically crushing the most cherished beliefs of others. -Josh Smith Is that an orgasmatron in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Yea, verily. Truly He is a merciful god. Okay, not really. But He is a a hungry god. Especially after a nap. -Chris Wayne Just the normal, everyday ways that women usually emasculate men. -Chris Wayne There's no bratwurst involved, is there? ugh, that's an experience I -never- want to go through again.... -Chris Wayne Dear, if I had an orgasmatron in my pocket I'd be happy to see _anyone_. -Alloni Kramer What build version? <Start Joke>I was able to secure the Orgamatron 3000 Aplha Build 12. Works great, but I need to fill out a bug report though... <Joke Set: Successful; Punchline> Every time to doorbell ring, I ejaculate. <Rimshot> Thank you, Thank you... I'll be here all week. -Jason I'm starting a Kill Jason drive. Care to make a donation? -Alloni Kramer You're such a geek. *giggle* HEY! WHO DID THAT? NO GIGGLING IN MY EMAIL CLIENT! YOU HEAR ME? -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Isn't it a bit redundant to specify that any given post from Mr. Cwayne is chilling? -Josh Smith Or is this the huge amount of resin I just smoked talking? -Josh Smith Don't be silly. You can't die a fiery AND bloody death. Blood congeals quickly at high temperatures, such as when a body is on fire. I'm sorry, but you'll have to pick one and only one. -Chris Wayne Glow-in-the-dark hands on clocks and watches used to be painted with a minute amount of radium (not sure if they still are). In fact, they used to be painted by hand, until entire crews of workers got radiation poisoning and/or various cancers. After that they only hired immigrants. -Chris Wayne "Holy infant, so tender and mild." mmm, holy infant.... -Chris Wayne According to one of my psych courses in college, dreaming of broken teeth means that you will become Libertarian and learn Japanese. I'm sure it's just a coincidence. -Chris Wayne I'm sure that businesses payed them well for their injuries, as it is clearly in their best interests to do so. Because business cares. -Chris Wayne I almost induced a heart attack once. Damn nitroglycerin tablets. -Chris Wayne I hereby declare the Abducted Unimportant Corps, for those of us who aren't important here and who need the union support. -Alloni Kramer you'd probably let me down too. i asked at a recent gathering which of my friends would kill me and they all rose their hands. but have any of them? no. no they just all lied! LIARS!! damn you all! -litho Where's Freud when ya need him?
All coked up out of his gourd, smoking a cigar with his mother.
-Jennifer 'n Chris The reason why I'm not into the whole two way suicide thing with you is because then it'll be as if I'm murdering someone. And you know how that goes in our society. HOWEVER! Now that Funky's supposedly in on it, if we coordinate it with a comet or asteroid or the renewal of shows such as clueless, it'll look like some cult thing instead! And than young teens will look up to us. -litho My mom has a "to do" list right next to the computer so I can't help but look at it constantly. And number one on this list is really disturbing me. I'm pretty positive it says: 1. derive Selene (<- me) What does she _mean_ by that?! -litho OH MY GOD!!! YOUR MOM WANTS TO COMMIT CALCULUS UPON YOUR BODY! RUN FOR THE GILLS! -Jennifer Lynn Larkin It's Alloni's ancestors! Run! -Josh Smith Actually, I don't want to make a statement. I just want to be dead. -Mary Hodges No, not my ancestors. Most of them are dead. Must be my descendants. They have yet to be dead. -Alloni Kramer Ahh yes. This explains it. The fruit of Alloni's seed, participants in a neozionist conspiracy, are tormenting Jason's ICQ account from Israel in the future. -Jason *incomprehensible gibbering* *paranoid side to side eye motion* it gets worse. It was the only item on the whole list that was crossed off. What does that mean!? Have I been derived? Watch out! You may be next! I'm mel....t..ing...into...a pil.e of..sine..equations...i'm a trough! related rates have eaten away at my soul! ack!! -litho I could draw dirty pictures, but my employee manual advises against it. -Nathan Winant There used to be something you're not allergic to? A paradox. The universe couldn't allow it to continue to be. -Alloni Kramer (re: jennifer) "You may have the tongue of a spanish lover, but I have the thighs of a french wastrel! Enter at your own risk!" -Nathan Winant X-mas Theme Porn Movie: How The Grinch Stole My Virginity. The male actor being in full costume. The female actor being in the costume of that little Who main character. -Jason Oooo, was his penis green with envy? -Mary Hodges We like the smell of testicles under our fingernails. -Chris Wayne "Computer games don't affect kids. I mean, if Pac Man affected us as kids, we'd all sit around in a darkened room, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive music." -brought to us by Funky J This sort of vertical and horizonal zany marketing strategy exeplifies why i love Japan so much: They are fucking insane. -ghostxxx Having seen Hook, and being willing to *admit* to having seen Hook, are two very different things... -Nathan Winant Nuthin. Doin. Nuthin Duin. The new fragrance. From Loreal. How to tell. Your man. That he ain't gettin some tonight. Use the new fragrance. Nuthin Duin. From Loreal. He thinks. A few flowers. Will get him out. Of this one? He's wrong. And you can tell him so. With the new fragrance. From Loreal. Want to. Tell him. That it's. Over now? Want to. Tell him. You've found. Someone else? Especially. If. That. Someone. Else. Isn't. Another. Man? Use the new fragrance. From Loreal. Nuthin Duin. -Alloni Kramer Like dissolves like. To dissolve petroleum jelly use gasoline (aka petrol). And gental heat. Like a match. That should solve your problems. -Garth Marlin Just kill me. Kill me now! -Mary Hodges (we haven't seen her around recently...) Doesn't matter. If it doesn't end up with me owning all your worldly posessions, it just ain't right. -Alloni Kramer Cheap, abundant hydrogen gas in the comfort of your own home! Yes, you too can pretend you're on the Hindenburg! Oh, the humanity! -Chris Wayne Well, let's see: de'rive (verb) 1. To obtain or receive from a source. You say in a later post that this item was crossed off. Clearly, this refers to your birth/adoption/kidnapping. You have already been obtained or received. Not too sinister. 2. To arrive at by reasoning; deduce or infer: derive a conclusion from facts. Your mother seeks to understand you. Perfectly reasonable. 3. To trace the origin or development of (a word). Your mother isn't sure where you came from. See 1 and 2. 4. (Chemistry) To produce or obtain (a compound) from another substance by chemical reaction. Get out of the house. NOW. -Chris Wayne Just because I'm the main force behind a federal bill to rename The Holiest Of Christian Holidays to "Consumermas" doesn't mean that I don't believe in it. Quite the opposite! For the right pre-negotiated sum, paid up front entirely in unmarked bills of small denomination, I can believe in anything. ANYTHING. And isn't that the REAL spirit of christmas? Besides, what better way to celebrate two millenia of catholic tradition than sex for material goods? Call me a traditionalist. Hell, I say we celebrate easter by looting and torching alloni's apartment! -Nathan Winant But if you have almost no sense of smell, how can you enjoy the aroma of singed human flesh? It's very sad to miss out on the pleasures of life like that. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin I have faith in you. I have absolute faith in you. I have absolute faith that you'd make some kind of fruity attempt to hit on my romantic interest, more than likely right in front of me, and I'd have to publicly crucify you. Literally. I'd literally have to stake you to a tree or a telephone pole or something, jab you in the gut a couple of times to get the blood flowing, and leave you to stray dogs, little children, and the elements. ... And then what happens? That's right: then *I* become the bad guy, and it makes it *that* much harder for me to get a date with her. -Nathan Winant I see signs and wonders. I see the three-eyed unicorn of peace meeting the black goat of joy in furious battle. I see a giant rose encircling the globe, turning black, and falling in the ocean. I the the horned grapefruit of Neveryet eating the pungent stench of the puma. I see myself not making any sense. I see myself abandoning this train of thought, due to a lack of interest in thinking up more portents. Seconds? I second the motion. Vote? Aye! Opposed? Neigh. Motion passes. -Alloni Kramer I thikn I took that analogy too far. You are all now offended. You are all now disgusted. You will all now KNEEL BEFORE ME OR DIE! Sorry. Those demonic tendancies pop up again. I'll have them exorcised before next time, I promise. This time I'll just try to keep them off the furniture. They make nasty pawprints, don't they. It's the ichor, I think. Hard to remove ichor. -Alloni Kramer I had a dream the other day that I went to South America with Elian Gonzalez and he turned into Joaquin Phoenix and we fell in love but it was doomed. Or something like that. -Mary Hodges I passed a motion the other day. It was painful. Very. -Mary Hodges "The holidays aren't just about giving gifts... they're about food, too!" -Nathan Winant Do not fear the light, Jennifer. -Nathan Winant Oo! Better yet! Gift certificates! The perfect "I swear to God I was thinking of you but not very hard cause I'm just soooooo busy" Christmas gift. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin I'm good at being devious. It's like being deviant-- it all just comes naturally. Well, come on! I am a *girl* for crying out loud. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Wow. No one's ever called me "rugged" before. -Alloni Kramer Ah well. I'll always have alloni.
After you threatened to crucify me? It'll take more than flowers to buy your way out of that one, bucko.
-Nathan 'n Alloni I hereby apoloogize for any posts i write tonight. I'm self-medicating. -Chris Wayne You're obviously not cooking it right. Most human flesh requires slow- cooking, like in a crockpot. It's much too tough otherwise. I recommend a pineapple juice, red wine, and rosemary marinade. mmm, that's good eatin'. -Chris Wayne Damn. And I was so hoping that Nathan would tenderly cup my buttocks. -Chris Wayne Seducing the Queen of the Universe has its advantages. -Chris Wayne You need more fiber. Eat a tree. -Chris Wayne Okay, I'm sorry, but if you act like a paranoid freak when you're in public, people -WILL- stare at you. And then, by definition, you're not paranoid. Apparently pointing out common sense is verboten. Who knew? -Chris Wayne Once again, hackers save the internet. Hug a hacker today. -Jonathan Mayer All I want to do in life is please you. -Mary Hodges (you heard it here first, folks) Mmmmmmm....."pizza and pornography" -Mary Hodges the real world doesn't exist... never has. -Jason Wow. Now you're just j. I didn't *mean* to use your paranoia against you. You can be jm. if you want. sniffle. This is all my fault [insert fake sobbing here]. I'm so sor-r-r-r-r-r-reeeeheeeheeeee. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Frankly, I don't think the ex-SSPO is particularly rugged, but I can see how someone might mistake him for a really wimpy lumberjack who's hiding women's underwear under his plaid. But he is pretty hairy. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin And then I go, "Wait a minute! According to independant nation-wide survey, I KNOW THE GREATEST DJ ON EARTH." But Fatboy Slim won't return my calls anymore, not after that stunt I pulled in Prague. So then I go, "Wait a minute! I KNOW FUNKY J!" -Nathan Winant I open my eyes, look over at the clock, notice that it's 10:15. Roll out of bed in a stupor, throw on some clothes, grab my keys and my palm pilot, slip my palm pilot in my back pocket. Stop for a moment, pull out my palm pilot and say to myself, "Heh. *That's* not your wallet." Then I hear, in the back of my head, "Not yet. Not... yet......" So I am now being visited by the schizophrenic ghost of mobile & embedded future. Great. Just fuckin' great. -Nathan Winant If you love Del Taco, let it go. -Nathan Winant My kingdom for an IHOP! Better yet, Mary's kingdom for an IHOP! -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Like the ancient Romans. I like many things like the ancient Romans. (And swiftly the conversation heads back to homosexuality and pedophilia.) -Alloni Kramer "Look ma, I have a tattoo on my arm with the kanji for 'miscellaneous'" -Josh Smith I, funkyj, holiest of holey orifaces, thus predict, now that Bush is El Presidente - 1) Internet will become VERY restrcited 2) War if Middle East 3) Drug scandal -FunkyJ (how we doing?) Realistically, now the bush is president, with cheney as his vp, and powell as secretary of state... how long do you really think canada will REMAIN an sovereign nation? -Nathan Winant Prehensile tail phone? For masturbation? -Jennifer Lynn Larkin (don't ask. just don't ask.) Fire goes poorly with my drug of choice. It definitely makes it much less relaxing, what with the running around and screaming and all. -Chris Wayne I'll give you a nickel. A nice wooden one. Ooh, shiny! Well, not really. But a majestic redwood died just for you! OK, not so much just for you. And it was more driftwood than redwood. uh.... um.... ooh, splintery! -Chris Wayne piss on him. that's the best way to claim your territory. if you don't, I will, then he'll be mine, ALL MINE!!! -Funky J I pissed myself once, does that mean I'm my own bitch? -Jason I shudder to think of how one would hang up a monkey-phone. -Chris Wayne I've got to get to the USA before Canada blows it up... -Funky J How boring. What's the point of being full-fledged if you don't use your super-hero powers, Harry Gruberman? -Jennifer Lynn Larkin It's just raining women up here! -Mary Hodges Fire ants could invade your colon. Or your skin could get peeled off. Or every single person you have ever met could be ripped apart by rabid wild animals, their pathetic final screams ringing in your ears for the rest of your life. Or George W. Bush could be the president. This message of inspiration is brought to you by the Chrurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, the Mormons! -Chris Wayne I'll do the quotes sometime. Honestly. -Alloni Kramer (hahahahAHAHAHAHAHA... ha... um, wait.) Razer Poontang 1000!!! -Nathan Winant Computers understand binary numbers, right? Jan 1st, 2000 will look like 01-01-01 to a computer.. AND IT WILL FREAK OUT!! Wait, 01-01-00 was binary... fuck. Resume your normal lives. -Jason Oh my god! Dude, the computers are reading those binary numbers, like... RIGHT NOW!!! Quick! Someone write "klaatu barada nicto" in binary and mail it to abducted, QUICK!!! I'll try to buy us some time by confusing them!!! 1110101110110110111110110111011011101101101101011010110101010101010101 011, motherfuckers!!!!! -Nathan Winant I think I remember Nathan waxing poetic about the sensualness of his mouse. -Mary Hodges It's all about height. It's a not-terribly-well-hidden attempt to see if you are insecure about your height. Only insecure people would answer "short". People who feel inadequate. In many areas. Napoleon was short, and look what happened to him. So was Julia Child, for that matter. Very short. So many people miss the point of this question. They think it has something to do with personal taste, or self-description, or something. Nope. They "come up short", so to speak. Short. They're all short. Damnable short people. Surrounding me. I'm surrounded by legions of the loathsome short. Like insects. Swarms. They're all so short. Short. Short. Shortshortshortshortshort ALL RIGHT I ADMIT IT I'M NOT TALL! I'M SORRY, MOMMY! I'M NOT TALL! NOT THE RACK AGAIN, MOMMY! NO! I PROMISE I'LL GROW TALL, MOMMY! I PROMISE! Gasp. Gasp. Gasp. -Alloni Kramer How can we better serve you in the future? ___ On your knees, slime. ___ On your knees, slave. ___ Well, I don't know, but I have to admit, I am partial to the whole "knees" thing. -Alloni Kramer Maybe it's just me, but the words "meteor" and "surprise" in the same sentence make me just a little nervous. Particularly on the winter solstice, the last winter solstice on the millennium. And then a solar eclipe on Christmas too, the first (and last?) one ever. Good thing I kept paying the premiums on my Armageddon insurance. -Chris Wayne I have such a good monkey. Have I mentioned how good my monkey is? He's a naughty monkey when it's good to be a naughty monkey and he's a good monkey when it's good to be a good monkey. Monkeys are good. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin (raising the monkey count) Dear god, I sound like Josh. I must wash now. -Chris Wayne All the crazy people live in Toronto, apparently. -Terri C. Sheep all I got for christmas was a cold... I hate christmas. -Funky J Wow. I'm touched. Really. And not even in my special area. OK, well, maybe a bit.... -Chris Wayne You have no idea how much that would bother him. And, after all, it is my job to bother him when we're not having sex, thus encouraging sex. It's a cunning plan, I know. I know. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Basically, my family is insane. You only think I'm insane because you don't know my family. My family is insane. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin (fear) fsckin cracker. -Khanh Nguyen Damn gooks, all the same. Wait... no. You live in tx.tx.tx. No matter what you look like, as a Texan, you must be referred to as a "damn redneck" in all legal correspondance. Hold on. Damn rednecks, all the same. -Alloni Kramer (about khanh) My sex life does not depend on Alloni for irritation and may proceed without calling him before every time I have sex with jm.jm. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin (signed and witnessed) So here I am, talking with AllonI (that jew bastard) and Bill Gates about how Bill should redesign Windows for people in Australia... You know, dumb it down for them, when AllonI brings up lesbian sex for no reason. I jump in with a story about that time Bea Arthur, Pauly Shore, Jennifer Lakin and myself made a porno in Canada. (Yeah, Canadians love that shit) When Bill tells us about how he got probed by an alien fetus, I said "Bill, your a God fearing Christian whackjob, how can you believe in alien fetuses?" he replied with "I'm not Bill Gates, I'm Chris Wayne" -Jason (trying to get himself quoted. it won't work, i tell you!) I find the phrase, "Hold on, I need to call Alloni before we can have sex," to be highly amusing. -Alloni Kramer Your wish has been granted. But be sure to be back before midnight, or the alien spacecraft will turn back into a pumpkin! -Alloni Kramer Mmmmmmmm....spreading the Alloni around. -Mary Hodges You think that's bad??? MY grandmother told me on Christmas day that I should hurry up and "catch" my cousin before I go home. ACK!!! He and I are the last unmarried granchildren but that doesn't mean we should marry EACH OTHER!!! -Mary Hodges That does it. I'm gonna go wage me a one man guerilla war against pacific bell internet services. I shall leave no fiber uncut. If I can't have the internet, nobody can. Dammit, doesn't Pacbell understand, I MUST HAVE PORN!!! -Jonathan Mayer The local religious channel has a show called "Pet Playhouse" (it's syndicated -- if a station near you gets it, watch it at least once). The host is a pedophile, I'm certain of it. The kids were very uncomfortable around him, particularly the girls, whom he insisted on kissing on the lips. One little girl looked to be on the verge of tears when he had his arm around her. He just had this wierd gleam in his eye when he was around the little girls. Very, very disturbing. -Chris Wayne I was just recently trying to explain to my bi-polar hypochondriac that it is in fact possible to bleed to death. He just didn't believe it could happen. He thought the blood would just keep coming forever until you put a band-aid on it, which, of course, would stop it instantly like a little Dutch boy. I felt it was important to convince him before he decided to prove me wrong. Not sure if I did. -Chris Wayne I just got a cryptic reply to a quoted message involving long quests and shiny wooden nickles... -Trevor Walton I saw a commercial for it the other day that said it had the "best special effects since The Phantom Menace". Not sure what's worse: that they actually believe that or that it may possibly be true. -Chris Wayne (about d&d) Why not just have an Abducted Convergence? So we can all be in one place. Neatly concentrated. Possibly in a camp of some sort. Now wouldn't that be nice? Nothing more relaxing than a communal shower. -Chris Wayne Anything of critical mass kills, regardless of how many feet it falls towards the ground. We're talking _critical_mass_ here people. Critical mass = critical injuries. And critical injuries land you a spot on Abducted General Hospital(®), and once *that* happens, there's a brief appearance by our funny bumbling psychiatric nurse/elder god Chris Wayne the Unthinkable the Umpteenth, and after that the episode always ends abruptly before scheduled and a video comes on of flowery fields with a soundtrack by Yanni until, near the end of the hour, the credits start. I never understand those episodes. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Apparently one of the major benefits of IPv6 is dancing turtles. -Chris Wayne We always crucify the ones we love. -Chris Wayne (i miss him) I'm a flow chart. -Garth Marlin "If you love someone, hang them up by nails through their hands. If they don't come back to you, they were never really yours to begin with." -Alloni Kramer Last night I realized that when I laughed I sounded like Snidely Whiplash. I bought the expensive meds. I took it about an hour ago after not taking it for a month. I no longer laugh like Snidely Whiplash. I think that should be justification enough for the insurance company to pay for it, don't you? -Jennifer Lynn Larkin **if** "psychic warrior" is true, it means a university is developing the technological means to replicate a naturally occuring human capacity using, instead of simple self-hypnosis, expensive plastics and minerals whose refinement and manufacture indirectly contributes to the death of the planet's wildlife. how crazy is that? -Gibo That's precisely why people become necrophiles. No whining. -Chris Wayne I love you, Mr. Cwayne! If I had a rat's ass, I'd give it to you. -Mary Hodges You people need to stop talking about dead sex. -Mary Hodges Not after the mass execu.... uh, I mean, um, birthday parties! Yes, mass birthday parties! Won't that be fun? Let them eat cake. They deserve a last meal... um, a last meal before dessert! Just desserts. -Chris Wayne So basically you're asking if the ends justify the means. Suppose that Bill Gates modifies a perfectly normal kitten-ripping machine to power an enormous particle accelerator which will open a portal to hell, so that his Dark Master (bater) can come to earth and bring about an eternity of death, pain, and madness. However, as he's loading it with kittens, an undocumented feature (not a bug) causes a rift in spacetime which draws the entire human population of France into a nebulous limbo between worlds and forever seals the portal to hell with their pastry-laden screams. So is this good or evil? The answer, I think, is quite clearly a resounding YES. -Chris Wayne Was quietly proud of the handle for a few moments. -Alloni Kramer (by request) Except when you consider just how significant worms are to the ecosystem, churning and aerating the soil and aiding in the decomposition process of organic material to return its nutrients back to the soil and thus begin the circle of life anew.

No, that'd be rude. I'll kneel after you, I insist.

When the sun went down today, he was convinced it wasn't coming back. I think he's actually run out of things to worry about. He's actually moved on to global and cosmic catastrophes. -Chris Wayne mmmm, monkey earwax.... -Chris Wayne Yay! The stripes came out in the shower.

Only sick twisted freaks have two red nipples. (....my secret shame....sigh....) -Chris Wayne Because I'm a bi-polar bear. -Jennifer Lynn Larkin Discolored nipples was a storyline on CSI last Friday night. Some nonsense about scopalimine.

At this rate, I won't even talk for fear that I'm being unoriginal. The easy solution - kill you all and get a new crop of people on this list who haven't heard me rant - is made less easy by the fact that I don't have the money to travel to Dallas, much less Australia. Maybe I can borrow money. Maybe I can borrow money from you. Care to contribute to the Kill You All fund? I'll even set up a list of prizes for high contributors. Highest contributor will be killed first, or last, depending on their preferance. It'll be just like PBS. (Yes, of course PBS kills off their contributors. Why do you think they need to keep running those Pledge Breaks? New blood. So to speak.) $50 will get you a small sample of untraceable poison, $100 will be a small, functional letter bomb, $200 will get you a beautiful handcrafted silver knife between the shoulderblades, and $300 will actually fly you out here to meet me to be killed here, so you get a bit of travel. Oh, I may have to name it something other than the Kill You All fund, to delude you gullible fools into thinking it's not for me to have the money necessary to kill you all. It'll be, um, the Borgia fund. For underprivileged orphans. You all have children, right? So if I kill you, they'll be orphans, thus fulfilling the purposes of the fund. No, there's the spouses. I couldn't kill them all too, they're not on this list, it'd be murder. Maybe we can set up a concurrent recruitment drive, so you all could get your spouses involved here. No, wait, most of you don't have children. Never will, if I do this right. Or... maybe not. What with the whole human genome being mapped, and cloning, and so forth... I'll take cell samples from each of you, grow your clones in vats, raise you as closely as possible to your original growth patterns, and then resubscribe you all to this list, without having read all my plans and thoughts before! Brilliant! And since your "parent" will be long dead by then, you'll be orphans, and the Borgia fund's plans will be a success, and people will flock to my banner, and I can kill them all off too and raise their replacements, and if I raise them right I can early induct them with the principles of unending obedience to my will, and conquer the world that way! Genius! I get a new forum for my old thoughts, _and_ the world becomes mine to toy with! Life is good! So, who wants to contribute? I'll work up a more complete list of prizes if you want to know exactly what you'll be getting at each level, if anyone really cares. And Mary will be told exactly what the fund is for, so she'll be happy to contribute. But only Mary, because the rest of you sheep don't want to die. I assume. If you really do want to die, tell me now, and I'll tell you the real purposes of the fund. Outside of that, not much. And yourself?

Official Abducted Reminder That Bush Is President: (sent in by Jonathan Mayer) A LAYMAN'S GUIDE TO THE SUPREME COURT DECISION IN BUSH V. GORE by Mark H. Levine, Attorney at Law. Q I'm not a lawyer and I don't understand the recent Supreme Court decision in Bush v. Gore. Can you explain it to me? A Sure. I'm a lawyer. I read it. It says Bush wins, even if Gore got the most votes. Q But wait a second. The US Supreme Court has to give a reason, right? A Right. Q So Bush wins because hand-counts are illegal? A Oh no. Six of the justices (two-thirds majority) believed the hand-counts were legal and should be done. Q Oh. So the justices did not believe that the hand-counts would find any legal ballots? A. Nope. The five conservative justices clearly held (and all nine justices agreed) "that punch card balloting machines can produce an unfortunate number of ballots which are not punched in a clean, complete way by the voter." So there are legal votes that should be counted but can't be. Q Oh. Does this have something to do with states' rights? Don't conservatives love that? A Generally yes. These five justices, in the past few years, have held that the federal government has no business telling a sovereign state university it can't steal trade secrets just because such stealing is prohibited by law. Nor does the federal government have any business telling a state that it should bar guns in schools. Nor can the federal government use the equal protection clause to force states to take measures to stop violence against women. Q Is there an exception in this case? A Yes, the Gore exception. States have no rights to have their own state elections when it can result in Gore being elected President. This decision is limited to only this situation. Q C'mon. The Supremes didn't really say that. You're exaggerating. A Nope. They held "Our consideration is limited to the present circumstances, or the problem of equal protection in election processes generally presents many complexities." Q What complexities? A They don't say. Q I'll bet I know the reason. I heard Jim Baker say this. The votes can't be counted because the Florida Supreme Court "changed the rules of the election after it was held." Right? A. Dead wrong. The US Supreme Court made clear that the Florida Supreme Court did not change the rules of the election. But the US Supreme Court found the failure of the Florida Court to change the rules was wrong. Q Huh? A The Legislature declared that the only legal standard for counting vote is "clear intent of the voter." The Florida Court was condemned for not adopting a clearer standard. Q I thought the Florida Court was not allowed to change the Legislature's law after the election. A Right. Q So what's the problem? A They should have. The US Supreme Court said the Florida Supreme Court should have "adopt[ed] adequate statewide standards for determining what is a legal vote" Q I thought only the Legislature could "adopt" new law. A Right. Q So if the Court had adopted new standards, I thought it would have been overturned. A Right. You're catching on. Q If the Court had adopted new standards, it would have been overturned for changing the rules. And if it didn't, it's overturned for not changing the rules. That means that no matter what the Florida Supreme Court did, legal votes could never be counted. A Right. Next question. Q Wait, wait. I thought the problem was "equal protection," that some counties counted votes differently from others. Isn't that a problem? A It sure is. Across the nation, we vote in a hodgepodge of systems. Some, like the optical-scanners in largely Republican-leaning counties record 99.7% of the votes. Some, like the punchcard systems in largely Democratic-leaning counties record only 97% of the votes. So approximately 3% of Democratic votes are thrown in the trash can. Q Aha! That's a severe equal-protection problem!!! A No it's not. The Supreme Court wasn't worried about the 3% of Democratic ballots thrown in the trashcan in Florida. That "complexity" was not a problem. Q Was it the butterfly ballots that violated Florida law and tricked more than 20,000 Democrats to vote for Buchanan or Gore and Buchanan. A Nope. The Supreme Court has no problem believing that Buchanan got his highest, best support in a precinct consisting of a Jewish old age home with Holocaust survivors, who apparently have changed their mind about Hitler. Q Yikes. So what was the serious equal protection problem? A The problem was neither the butterfly ballot nor the 3% of Democrats (largely African-American) disenfranchised. The problem is that somewhat less than .005% of the ballots may have been determined under slightly different standards because judges sworn to uphold the law and doing their best to accomplish the legislative mandate of "clear intent of the voter" may have a slightly different opinion about the voter's intent. Q Hmmm. OK, so if those votes are thrown out, you can still count the votes where everyone agrees the voter's intent is clear? A Nope. Q Why not? A No time. Q No time to count legal votes where everyone, even Republicans, agree the intent is clear? Why not? A Because December 12 was yesterday. Q Is December 12 a deadline for counting votes? A No. January 6 is the deadline. In 1960, Hawaii's votes weren't counted until January 4. Q So why is December 12 important? A December 12 is a deadline by which Congress can't challenge the results. Q What does the Congressional role have to do with the Supreme Court? A Nothing. Q But I thought --- A The Florida Supreme Court had earlier held it would like to complete its work by December 12 to make things easier for Congress. The United States Supreme Court is trying to help the Florida Supreme Court out by forcing the Florida court to abide by a deadline that everyone agrees is not binding. Q But I thought the Florida Court was going to just barely have the votes counted by December 12. A They would have made it, but the five conservative justices stopped the recount last Saturday. Q Why? A Justice Scalia said some of the counts may not be legal. Q So why not separate the votes into piles, indentations for Gore, hanging chads for Bush, votes that everyone agrees went to one candidate or the other so that we know exactly how Florida voted before determining who won? Then, if some ballots (say, indentations) have to be thrown out, the American people will know right away who won Florida. A. Great idea! The US Supreme Court rejected it. They held that such counts would likely to produce election results showing Gore won and Gore's winning would cause "public acceptance" and that would "cast[] a cloud" over Bush's "legitimacy" that would harm "democratic stability." Q In other words, if America knows the truth that Gore won, they won't accept the US Supreme Court overturning Gore's victory? A Yes. Q Is that a legal reason to stop recounts? or a political one? A Let's just say in all of American history and all of American law, this reason has no basis in law. But that doesn't stop the five conservatives from creating new law out of thin air. Q Aren't these conservative justices against judicial activism? A Yes, when liberal judges are perceived to have done it. Q Well, if the December 12 deadline is not binding, why not count the votes? A The US Supreme Court, after admitting the December 12 deadline is not binding, set December 12 as a binding deadline at 10 p.m. on December 12. Q Didn't the US Supreme Court condemn the Florida Supreme Court for arbitrarily setting a deadline? A Yes. Q But, but -- A Not to worry. The US Supreme Court does not have to follow laws it sets for other courts. Q So who caused Florida to miss the December 12 deadline? A The Bush lawyers who first went to court to stop the recount, the mob in Miami that got paid Florida vacations for intimidating officials, and the US Supreme Court for stopping the recount. Q So who is punished for this behavior? A Gore, of course. Q Tell me this Florida's laws are unconstitutional, right? A Yes Q And the laws of 50 states that allow votes to be cast or counted differently are unconstitutional? A Yes. And 33 of those states have the "clear intent of the voter" standard that the US Supreme Court found was illegal in Florida. Q Then why aren't the results of 33 states thrown out? A Um. Because...um.....the Supreme Court doesn't say... Q But if Florida's certification includes counts expressly declared by the US Supreme Court to be unconstitutional, we don't know who really won the election there, right? A Right. Though a careful analysis by the Miami Herald shows Gore won Florida by about 20,000 votes (excluding the butterfly ballot errors). Q So, what do we do, have a re-vote? Throw out the entire state? Count all ballots under a single uniform standard? A No. We just don't count the votes that favor Gore. Q That's completely bizarre! That sounds like rank political favoritism! Did the justices have any financial interest in the case? A Scalia's two sons are both lawyers working for Bush. Thomas's wife is collecting applications for people who want to work in the Bush administration. Q Why didn't they recuse themselves? A If either had recused himself, the vote would be 4-4, and the Florida Supreme Court decision allowing recounts would have been affirmed. Q I can't believe the justices acted in such a blatantly political way. A Read the opinions for yourself http//frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/supremecourt/00-949_dec12.fdf (December 9 stay stopping the recount), and http//www.supremecourtus.gov/opinions/00pdf/00-949.pdf (December 12 final opinion) Q So what are the consequences of this? A The guy who got the most votes in the US and in Florida and under our Constitution (Al Gore) will lose to America's second choice who won the all important 5-4 Supreme Court vote. Q I thought in a democracy, the guy with the most votes wins. A True, in a democracy. But America is not a democracy. In America, in the year 2000, the guy with the most US Supreme Court votes wins. Q Is there any way to stop the Supreme Court from doing this again? A YES. No federal judge can be confirmed without a vote in the Senate. It takes 60 votes to break a filibuster. If only 41 of the 50 Democratic Senators stand up to Bush and his Supremes and say that they will not approve a single judge appointed by him until a President can be democratically elected in 2004, the judicial reign of terror can end... and one day we can hope to return to the rule of law. Q What do I do now? A E-mail this to everyone you know, and write or call your senator, reminding him that Gore beat Bush by several hundred thousand votes (three times Kennedy's margin over Nixon) and that you believe that VOTERS rather than JUDGES should determine who wins an election by counting every vote. And to protect our judiciary from overturning the will of the people, you want them to confirm NO NEW JUDGES until 2004 when a president is finally chosen by most of the American people.
