dbminter Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Well at least the Great Pumpkin is real, He rises out of the pumpkin patch on hallows eve and scares the s--t out of people. Then he hands out candy......... she's a wonderful treat all coated in chocolate and very sweeeetttt...... Yes, every All Hallow's Eve, the Great Pumpkin rises from the pumpkin patch to snatch unsuspecting kids off the streets to scoop out their brains and eyes and use their empty, severed skulls for trick or treat bags. "Trick or treat!" HOLDS UP KID'S SKULL TURNED UPSIDE DOWN, JAW MISSING, BRAIN PAN AND EYESOCKETS EMPTY TO WOMAN AT DOOR TO HAVE TREATS DROPPED INTO IT "OH, MY FUCKING GOD! Get the SHIT away from me!"
polopony Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Cobblers? Last I checked cobblers were both shoemakers and the desserts they ate. :& its a desert I'll pass on
lfcrule1972 Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Cobblers - Bollocks !! As in "you're talking cobblers again db" means "you're talking bollocks again db" !!
dbminter Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Actually, my bollocks have begun talking to me rather loudly lately. And, by lately, over the last 9 years. They tell me they want release. And, I wish I could help them. But, looks like all there is is
spinningwheel Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 looks like all there is is ... Deeb, that's some bad assed idea mate. Maybe you need to take a break frm the neuro-toxins you're taking and stick with
dbminter Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Unfortunately, it appears I may need this medication for peripheral neuropathy. Now, if I somehow slept on a large pile of money instead of a matress which would mean I'm financially set enough to use alcohol to self medicate myself I would do it in an instant. But, as usual, I've no choice. Plus, I've no friends to go out and with. And, the fact that I don't drink might put a dampener on that, too.
spinningwheel Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 the fact that I don't drink might put a dampener on that, too. I can't do much about the other issues Deeb, but I KNOW you can learn to I practiced at it for quite a while and actually became pretty good at it for a while.....
dbminter Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Yeah, I admit, I avoid alcohol by choice. I do not want to be like my dad was. So, the best thing to do it to avoid it. But, if I had the money, I'd drown my sorrows every once in a while.
spinningwheel Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I understand, I grew up with it and it killed several in my family...I was just busting your balls for a minute or two old friend.
lfcrule1972 Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 Vegemite and Marmite are a lot less addictive than alcohol guys !!
dbminter Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 I was just busting your balls for a minute or two old friend. I once had a very painful dream in my youth that the similar happened to me. With a folded lawn chair. I had spilled Kool-Aid on the carpet and that was my punishment: she jumping on a lawn chair on my nuts until they burst open, flying out goo. Even my dreams ne'er end well for me... :&
lmao2k Posted October 26, 2006 Posted October 26, 2006 I once had a very painful dream in my youth that the similar happened to me. With a folded lawn chair.

Even my dreams ne'er end well for me... :& Seek help NOW!
dbminter Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 Did once. 9 years ago. Put me on lithium. But, discovered it was slowing me down at work, making it really difficult to perform my task. Besides, after I got to thinking it, I figured there's nothing THAT wrong with me that pills aren't going to help. So, I went off them. After all, life was starting to look for me. I had had my 2nd girlfriend in life. Even had had my first date! Life looked good; looks are deceiving. Within days after my last visit, she broke it off with me. Yeah, you'll say I should have stayed on it, she left for me that reason, the usual shit. Too bad, as I later learned, earlier this year, she had never loved me to begin with. So, to Hell with empty arguments, I say!
lfcrule1972 Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 You know what db - sometimes your posts make me feel like I have inadvertently stumbled into a private session between you and your counsellor....
dbminter Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 Oh, no. Remember, these events I discuss are, mostly, POST shrink. Yeah, the guy who prescribed the lithium required I had to see him once a week, lay down, talk to him, etc. His first name was Surrendar, believe it or not! So close to Surrender, eh?. And, those were fun. Especially when he treated me like a mental midget once asking me who the current President of the US was! Simply because I had gone off on a tangent rant about the superiority of machines to men. Which they are. Of course, I proved to him just how competent I was by going back through all the Presidents of the 20th Century in order.
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted October 27, 2006 Author Posted October 27, 2006 Of course, I proved to him just how competent I was by going back through all the Presidents of the 20th Century in order. Definitely a case of too many anal probes.
dbminter Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 What surprised him the most was I correctly predicted the first President of the 21st century! (Wow... the smilie programmer doesn't know whacko is spelled with an h...)
dbminter Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Wow... vegemite made it into a contestant's answer on Jeopardy! yesterday! She was wrong, but, it definitely triggered a memory for me of this thread.
dbminter Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Interesting. As I was typing the above reply, an Australian related answer showed up on Jeopardy! About the kookaburra.
dbminter Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 Heard these lyrics on the Dr. Demento Show and, of course, thought of this thread immediately afterwards. http://spaff.com/poesy/madmax.html Mad Max got pulled over by a Hebrew Speeding down the coast on Thursday night You can say that Mel's an alcoholic But I think he was blitzed on Vegemite!
