Subject: Live With It, take two....


MikeJ ( ) posted Sun, 09 April 2006 at 12:09 AM · edited Thu, 19 December 2024 at 3:20 AM

OK, since my first version of this "Live with it" theme didn't fare so well, I offer this second one, while officially proclaiming the original as a target for the angst of the "I can't live with it!" crowd. To recap: Free shit generally is free for a reason, --and-- life's a bitch. Is there anyone here who doesn't get that idea? ;)

"TANSTAAFL" TANSTAAFL ? Hmmm... OK, let's see..umm... Take Another Non Sequitur (stop me if I'm wrong) Trip Away And Fall (while) Laughing? No, that doesn't make much sense... That big puffy couch looks pretty comfortable though in the meantime. Is it a beanbag? :)

Thank you. :) Yes, "doable" is a word. I think. If it's not, it is now, I suppose. That's how words get mnade, anyway. Someone, somewhere has to be the first, and then, I guess maybe there's some council somewhere that approves or denies. Probably not though. But enough of the small talk What's a nice girl like you doing in a place looks around like...this? ;)

Actually since Nivien is a big fan of Heinlein, he thought up a similar slogan for his Known Space series after he read The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. Both have been used enough to become cliches since they express a truism in a short space. Can you pass that popcorn over here please?

"Oh and great to see you too. Someone has to stalk you... ;D" Stalking, eh? Well, OK, I guess since it's you and not someone overly weird... Seems kind of exciting too. I've never had a stalker before. Is there anything special I'm supposed to do? Really, bear with me - I'm new to this. ;P



Jumpstartme2 ( ) posted Mon, 10 April 2006 at 5:11 PM

Is there anything special I'm supposed to do? Put on your pj's..run into the woods for about...oh..2 miles..and yell..."Is there anyone there?"....when you get an answer...run like blazes back home {making sure to go the wrong way of course}..and dont forget to fall at least 3 times..:tt2:
