Here's something to cheer you up, Law: I find the most interesting things on Facebook

[Lawtan]

That brought a smile to my face, Den.

*Grabs AKMS and Something Wicked This Way Comes

[Kilala Mikal]

*hugs Law* I know that feeling... Hope today goes better for you, hon.

I just notice rule #5 which says: 5) Repeated jokes only last so long, and without decent setup and variation, they will die rather quickly.

Comedians, and I've known a few, would say, a mediocre joke said once might be funny, said twice is not funny, said 5 times is boorish, said 10 time is irritating, but said 50 times, makes it funny again.

Just saying.

(But maybe alcohol was involved which might explain a lot.)

[Lawtan]

I think that is because it is funny due to being ridiculous at that point, and is not necessarily good again.

(Also, could mean their audience changed...and there are people willing to listen to the same song for an hour on repeat...)

Anywho, today seems better. I hope it stays that way... :)

(Esther up your nose due to irresponsible lab mates + test stress + Migraine + yelled at + sickly due to sleep issues tends to be the point when I need to let off steam.)

[Tam I am]

Only one hour on repeat? *has gotten well and truly stoned from listening to the same song all beeping afternoon on select days. Usually can't stand having music played though*

[Yeladim]

Put that steam to good use by reading a few pages of Huck Finn. You might be able to power that steamer halfway up the Big Muddy.

But non-literary speaking, glad today is better. Sucky days just suck!

[Tam I am]

I have a hangover from staying up so late last night. *pokes self in the dopy head*

[Lawtan]

*Gives Tam shades and tea*

Hope you feel better. And no, I've done the same thing, though usually the 30th repetition is when I need to change songs...

I'll miss old Huck. He was such a cute "bad" kid.

There are different kinds of steam - the kind that raises your head to cloud nine; the kind that comes out of your ears, mouth, and fingernails; and the kind that chokes you unconscious. Mine tends to do the latter.

Found another funny thing on facebook. Linguistics geekery...

[Yeladim]

Den, that is funny.

I can somehow picture Hades walking around his front yard throwing a giant stick. "Here boy, fetch!"

[Lawtan]

From looking up, that term is a theoretical one, based on a similar Sanskrit word...but there is doubt as it requires a syllable (b) to be transcribed from one language to the other unconventionally.

Still, Hades telling Spot to roll over and not wet in the river Styx is humorous xD

[ml1201]

Did I just see mentions of a Greek god? XD If its the Hades from the Disney movie, its even funnier. X3 What with his temper and all anyways. XD

[Den]

So, I know what my dress for my brother's wedding will look like. I've got a pattern picked out and I know what sizes I need to combine to get it to fit right, and I've already got the fabric picked out (pale yellow satin, and chiffon or organza). I just need to lose some weight and inches, and actually make the dress.

[Yeladim]

As for funny/interesting quotes:

According to Gene Kranz in his book, Failure Is Not an Option, “When reporters asked Shepard what he thought about as he sat atop the Redstone rocket, waiting for liftoff, he had replied, ‘The fact that every part of this ship was built by the lowest bidder.’”

And that is how America got to the moon.

[ml1201]

lol, Actually that's pretty true about America. XD They want to get things for as cheap as possible all the time, which makes retail jobs AWEFUL during the Holiday season, even more so on Black Friday. X.x
