Anything You Want

[Vertigo58]

I was once dancing with a very obnoxious and arrogant girl from high school at a local Discoteque and her skirt suddenly unbuttoned and flew across the dance floor! Most of the crowd was annoyed by the whistle she always hung around her neck for that "toot" "toot" sound effect. She had one of those new "Roseanna-danna" hairdo's with glitter splashed across. She ran for the skirt in panties/heels then fled for the rr. It was the talk of the town for weeks. One way to get popular.

Oh my gosh. There's just so much that's funny about that.

Oh my gosh. There's just so much that's funny about that.

Even scarier, the song we were dancing to was either "Push, Push in the Bush" or "Funky Town".

PS, mens platform shoes were very dangerous to drive in.

I trim my pit hair. Hair pits are a no-no.

I'm glad you're only trimming.

Wow Kim,

The pup has that Cujo thing going on or what? Eyes seem dialated.

I once picked up a small stray kitty to hug and pet it and it let go of it's waste on my leg. what a sight to see.

Even though I disagree with just about everything she does for her boss, I have a crush on Condi Rice. (I feel better now)

Yeah? I always thought he looks like Jaws.

[gwilson]

Stop nitpicking, both of you. You knew what I meant. I supposed I could have worded it better. It did look like something out of the Chronicle when you think about it.

I don't like knits, so why would I pick them?

What this forum needs instead of this thread, is a shoutbox, for times when HAIFers just want to bullshit instead of post. Like IMing, but limited to people on this website.

No, this thread is awesome. Though a shoutbox could be cool

Obnoxious and arrogant without her skirt...seems fitting.

Oh my gosh. There's just so much that's funny about that.

Indeed

I prefer "Play that funky music whiteboy".

I'm glad you're only trimming.

Out of context, your post would be hilarious.

Even mine?

I like mine better but yours will give me nightmares tonight of a floor mop that comes to life to kill people.

Ewww

You'd thinks he could afford braces.

Yeah? I always thought he looks like Jaws.

Paint him grey and give him some fins, and you've got a killer on your hands.

Have you ever accidentally shoplifted anything?

Once I got to my car to unload stuff from a hardware store and there was 2 boxes of nails. I really needed them though so.....assumed it was a gift from above? maybe he gives away nails on ocassion?

I have actually. I have this bad habit of getting chocolate milk while I grocery shop as a treat. I drink it while I finish up the shopping and then the checkout lady scans it and throws the empty bottle away. Well, one time I was shopping and I set the bottle down to check out some details on another product and forgot to pick it back up.

I paid, left, got home and realized I had forgotten to pay for the milk. I made mention of it to the check out lady the next time I was in as a semi-joke and she said don't worry about it. So I didn't. My conscience was at ease.

That reminds me of an old 3 Stooges scene where Moe frisks the pockets of Curly and a bunch of silver ware like spoons, forks, knives, ladels, etc fall on the floor while shaking him for the contents of his pockets. Even a hand held mixer and saw fall out. Hilarious stuff, sure miss that kind of slapstick humor.

Milk's nasty! Sometimes I can't even drink the instant hot chocolate because I can taste the milk in it.

Bad '80s video alert:

I like how this guy basically has to dance in one spot otherwise he'll move away from the blue screen:

Maybe we should have a True Confessions topic?

This "innovative" video would play overhead on a huge silver screen at a local dance club. The crowd below would be worshipping while you danced along.

This flash-in-the-pan dude is a shoe-in for Max Headroom. Best thing to do is puke the milk on him/her/whatever. MTV was at it's zenith.

Milk is great. Good chocolate milk especially.I see your Baltimora and raise you an Information Society.

I hate it when people move in herds. I prefer packs or gaggles.

People tend to move in packs I guess. When I worked in a box office there would always be a few lines that were really long, yet all the rest of the windows were either empty or had very few people at them. It was mysterious as to why the people didn't go to the shorter or empty windows.

Speaking of milk. This morning my Cheerios grouped themselves into an image of the virgin mary. I ate them anyway.

Foolishness. You should have put it on Eaby or at least contacted the local news.

I eat my cereal dry. That's how much I hate milk.

Thanks Kimberly, I couldn't get that Baltimora tune out of my head all day yesterday.

Entertainment Tonight showed Mary Hart interviewing dancers as they bump & grinded on live TV. This dance was to sweep the nation,take it by storm, etc.

By end of year it went kaput.

I've tried water and orange juice. The orange juice wasn't bad. My friend said her grandma used to put apple juice on hers.

Soooo, anyway, does anyone want to help me bring back vaudeville?

It's probably because the lazy store clerk forgot to unlock the other door. I actually turn around and leave a business that only unlocks one side of a double door. I assume they are "Not Open for Business".

Not thus far as I'm always the one that discovers the magical door opens.

I will, I have a top hat & cane for starters. Have dodged many tomatoes on Haif too.

I also have a kitty that can tap dance on cue.

While we're at it, we might as well bring back '70s variety shows, too.

Faded from many memories but there was a quite entertaining TV show called "Almost Anything Goes".

Seemed to be held in an arena or it was one huge set? People being thrown into giant vats of jello, etc. Entertaining to us teens anyway. As camp as it gets, but it was squeaky clean/messy fun.

Then there just had to be a Jr edition.

That's fun! Kind of like "Double Dare" or one of those other old school '80s Nick shows.

And the vats of Jello you mentioned, that reminds me of those old Jello jumps they used to have at the Omni hotel on the Katy freeway.

That's very informative, to be honest. I didn't know there was a right or wrong way to moonwalk! And the airwalk is just too cool to fool. I'm going to have to learn those myself.

I always wanted someone to throw a pit in my face. Just like in the old 3 Stooges films. Banana cream or coconut might be tasty.

This is over on Kiam near TC Jester:

[KimberlySayWhat]

Yesterday I went to the San Jacinto Monument for the first time in years. At the visitor's center/gift shop over by the battleship there was a wooden cut out of a sailor and at the bottom is said something like, "Thank's for visiting". It made me want to scream. I intend on e-mailing them and suggesting they fix it. All they have to do is paint over the apostrophe

with a little yellow paint since the background was yellow.

Don't forget those Astros tickets signs downtown that say "Astro's Tickets".

Y'know...it's quite accurate. They are the Astro's tickets (no apostrophe ma'! Do'h!) until you buy them.

Was there ever a sentence or phrase you always wanted to say? Here's one of my fav's:

(Storm in to a room dressed like Sherlock Holmes with pipe in hand, big mustache)

Alright everyone, stay where you are! No one is to leave the hotel. It's seems Mr Fabershem has been murdered! and one of you did it!

Blame the butler?

[KimberlySayWhat]

ricco67:

It would look much better if they'd leave the blasted apostrophe out. Astros is plural because it's a team. You're not just buying Berkman's ticket or you might get be able to away with "Astro's tickets" because he's an Astro and that's his ticket.

musicman:

wait aren't we married? or do we have an apostrophe fetish?

Mine started years ago after reading one of the stories from the Stephen King book "Nightmares and Dreamscapes". In the story there was an old hick-like town with a video store and its sign read "Video's". From then on I can't help but notice. It especially bugs me when it's on a sign.

Wouldn't it be Astros' since it is plural and possessive?

It appears we have a polyamorous sect here considering how anal I am about apostrophes.
