DragonXero September 19, 2001 7:39 PM	Oh easy, the Newbies and LadyJ are my punishment. Brad is God. Therefore, Brad (God) is making me go through hell. I am still trying to figure out WHY.

I've heard that Lewis Carroll used his stories to get little girls into his house so he could feel their pre-pubescent b00blies.

Or at least collect galleries of nudie pics. Amazing how many people actually let him do it.

I also heard about people trying to make anagrams out of Jabberwocky that would implicate him as being Jack the Ripper.

From www.straightdope.com

quote:
For example, Wallace starts with this famous verse from "Jabberwocky":

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

And transmutes it into:

Bet I beat my glands til,
With hand-sword I slay the evil gender.
A slimey theme; borrow gloves,
And masturbate the hog more!

Personally, I think the anagrams people are on crack.

Okay, I have to give this a try...

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe.
All mimsy were the borogroves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Beware the jabberwock, my son,
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch.
Beware the jubjub bird and shun
The frumious bandersnatch!

Nope, my crappy word processor gives up on half of them, and the suggestions it gives for the others just aren't funny. This disappoints me. :(

...

He took his vorpal sword in hand.
Long time, the manxome foe he sought.
So rested he by the tumtum tree
and stood a while in thought.

And as in uffish thought he stood,
the Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
came whiffling through the tulgy wood
and burbled as it came!

One, two and through and through.
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left if dead, and with its head,
he went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
Oh, frabjous day, calloo, callay!"
He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabe.
All mimsy were the borogoves
and the mome raths outgrabe.

Jabberwocky is the first poem I ever memorized in its entirety. Unfortunately, I am not certain of all the spelling and punctuation. Still, typing it from memory is fun. :)

September 20, 2001 3:07 PM

it's the first poem i memorized for fun.
the earliest poem i can remember is this crappy one about scissors or something.
but yes, three things i can draw quotes from at leisure and from memory are :
hamlet's to be or not to be soliloque, (and possible a few snippets from other danish tirades), the jabberwocky, and Robert Burns' "to a mouse", or whatever wasn't burned up in a fire or something...
i'm not sure how that works

gabe_billings September 20, 2001 3:18 PM	I have the bad habit of having large chunks of movies, Simpson's episodes and Saturday Night Live sketches permanently embedded in my head. Which makes me wonder what's getting pushed out to make room. I'm expecting to wake up some day having forgotten how to put shoes on.

i have a theory
this theory, that is to say the theory that is mine, which i am about to share with you, my theory that is, is mine. and it goes as following:
ahem!
my theory:

everything in life is directly linked to the simpsons.

have you ever heard of the game "six degrees of kevin bacon"?
you basically try to prove that everyone is related to kevin bacon by 6 goes or less... like... jack nicholson was in a few good men, the best grip of a few good men caught herpes simplex B from ... blah blah blah ... who once woke up in a pile of vomit courtesy of kevin bacon.

it's like that, but with the simpsons... and you'll never need more than one degree.

Being honest, I'd have much prefered to have stayed a pink donkey wrangler. Unfortunately, I'd have had to stay quiet quite a bit or donate money. Which, if I had a credit card, I would.

Draw a tasteless picture or make a construction paper nightmare of a decoration. 3. Write your desired caption on the back of your artwork. 4. Stick the art and a $20 in an envelope and mail it to Brad. That's my plan anyway.

attitudechicka September 21, 2001 9:48 AM	But won't that cost extra postage?

Spankling September 21, 2001 9:53 AM	quote: But won't that cost extra postage? I'm guessing the $20 will be the most expensive part - unless you're making a life-sized replica of your own torso - in which case send it to me and I'll send you the $20. I'm just thinking that a bit of art (or a Hallmark card if you wish) will cover up the fact that you're sending cash in the mail.

Keep dreaming about those days. When you get a little older and the leeches at the credit card companies realize you're a consumer you'll get enough of those to build a house out of. We usually get at least three to five a week, without fail.

It's the most horrendous waste of paper I can imagine. I'd like to hunt down the people responsible for sending them out and stuff a few thousand up their keisters.
