nice, jade!

are you sick, cms? why would you want it to feel that hot

then again, i know i'm the weird one...i get angry when listening to the weatherman and the news crew rave about it being great that it's hot. i seriously want to hurt them. that's how it goes when the perfect day to you is 60 (65 maybe) with a stiff breeze and completely overcast skies ;D

I don't have any sleep laying around but I do have this funny series of Yu-gi-oh parodies. Perhaps you will laugh yourself unconcious. I'm gonna say not worksafe because there is a bit of the foul language. http://www.dailymotion.com/LittleKuriboh/video/x1f6qo_ygo-the-abridged

You probably need to have seen an episode or two of the show to get the most enjoyment out of these but I don't think you need to have followed the whole series. My favorite line, "He has to prove he's a man by winning a children's card game."

You're welcome. Plus it dawns on me that I should probably link to the place that I stumbled across those vids at.

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main.BigDamnHeroes

It's a wiki explaining the idiom of story telling (especially as it aplies to television) in a plethora of cross linked entries. They use a lot of Jossverse examples. Natch considering how aware of the forms of story telling Joss' work is. WARNING clicking on that link will suck hours upon hours out of your life.

I mean like something along the lines of Waynes World or any one of Brendon Frazers (sp?) early stoner type movies...

infact anyone for Airheads?

Reefer Madness

Now, I'm not particularly an advocate for or against drug use, I've always figured that if you're dumb enough to do that to yourself, then have at it! Just don't expect any pity from me, after all, you did do this to yourself! But, since the 70s, I've been aware of the drug culture, even if I wasn't particularly interested in participating in it, and it's been a great source of humor, both intended and unintended for me. So, when I saw a copy of the old 'cautionary tale' movie, Reefer Madness, I was just too curious to pass it by.

Reefer Madness is the tale of a small town guy who gets caught up in the drug scene, but this is the drug scene of the 50s, so the horror is being in the house of an adult, smoking pot and dancing some really old dance. The Horror!! But, in Reefer Madness, pot not only kills brain cells, it causes insanity, paranoia and all sorts of other problems...oh, and it seems to make the girls very easy...I almost forgot that.

Presented as a documentary type movie, Reefer Madness seems to be a very early exploitation movie, reeling people in to show them the 'true horrors' of the drug scene, and during the course of the movie, lives are ruined, people are killed, drugs are sold and many, many dances are done. Seen through today's eyes, this is mostly a comedy, and little more than a curiousity piece. Is it worth seeing? I think so, after all, it's one of those movies that you've heard about forever and, like me, probably never seen. But is it accurate, well, probably not, but then again, I'm no marijuana professor, either.

It's called Reefer Madness and I give it three burning cigars because after you've seen it you'll think twice about smoking pot, not out of fear of drugs, but out of fear of dancing! So, until next time, when I'll reveal that I am in fact addicted to those pepperoni sticks you can find at your local party store...you know the ones, they're not wrapped or anything, just sitting there in that jar...LOVE THOSE!!! And remember, the best movies are bad movies!

The movie is almost totaly wrong in it's depiction of marijuana use. Finally the soundtrack is some fairly groovy jazz. (Quite possibly performed by the only people involved with the film who had actually smoked pot.)

Have you seen the updated Tom and Jerry cartoons? They speak, there are plots, and they went an entire episode the other day without hidiously dismembering each other even once.

Better than running the old toons horridly mangled by edits. Trivia time, Simon and Garfunkle first recorded as Tom & Jerry with a sound very much inspired by the Everly Brothers.

Copacetic means everything is ok don't worry things are fine. No clue on homunculous outside of it's connection to alchemy and some fairly abstract philosophical and technical uses. Is it used in general discourse at all? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homunculus

Speaking of pants did I give you guys the link to the Star Wars pants site? I can't find it in my book marks, but it's based on the premise that any Star Wars movie can be transformed into a non stop laugh fest by taking the lines and adding or substitutuing in the word 'pants'. Here's some examples:

Captain tear this ship apart piece by piece, I want those pants.

Use the pants Luke.

there was a thread yonks ago (yonks = yearsbutnotliterally)where some one suggested posting all the lines from firefly with pants substituted in various places.

for some reason the only one i can remeber is 'Jayne, go and play with your pants stick' (snerk)

but i did copy and paste them so they will be somewhere - i just have to find them.

but there are many witty people here who can probably think them up before i manage it.
