Riiight. There's a difference, Mr. holier-than-thou asslicker, between mentioning the impact of new words on our society and pointlessly and stupidly mocking someone's spelling just for the sheere hell of it. Okay. I misspell a few words sometimes. But tell me, all-knowing and wise dictionary hog, what word is "lol" a misspelling of?
See, that's what I thought.
I repeat again: "lol" is not a fucking word.
Thank you, and good night.

Granted. But then, how about

James Bond wrote:...ingender ...

... is that a word? Or, say,

James Bond wrote:...inteligent.

Is that a word? Can't seem to find it.

Now look here, Mister Bond. I am as concerned as you about pinback's recent and drastic mood swing. But those who live in glass houses should not cast stones, eh, dear boy?

Good bye, Mister Bond! Mwah-ha-ha!

Quoted for EMPHASIS.

I'm going to quote it a few more times just for the hell of it.

Here! I will quote it in German! Just in case someone reads that better than they do English! Even though this is probably mangled German!!

Blast you, Parrish!!!

I'm sorry if I offended you, James, as that was not my intention. If it reflects poorly on my own intelligence, I suppose I'll have to live with that. But I'd rather be a laughing idiot than a frowning genius!

Why should any of us be ashamed to laugh? It is one of the most spirit-fulfilling activities any of us can engage in! I revitalizes us, gives us an overwhelming feeling of contentment... I don't understand why anyone would want to "hold it in".

I say, LOL as much as you possibly can!

by **James Bond** » Wed May 14, 2003 4:31 pm

Ben "Pinback" Parrish has just used the word "lol". Hold me, I may cry.

Why, yes, I was making a play upon words there. Nothing like a good chuclke to start the day, eh, what? I shall go and peruse the digi-freighter to see what looks good for the evenings repast now..

That sounds like a fun, joyous lunch, Aardvark! Nice to hear! Two questions though?

1. What is a "portable sandwich"?

2. There is a place called "Soup Homies"?

Oh wait... I just reviewed this thread, and I think you are just making this up as a play on Roody's words! Well, you sure got me, Aardvark! LOL!

by **AArdvark** » Wed May 14, 2003 3:13 am

I had a huge portable sandwitch at Soup Homies, on the beach. I dallied a little too long at the bar there and when I left everything was tilted sideways. Silly me. I laugh at the thought.

Sounds delightful, Commandant D'avis!

After work tonight, my coworker (Robb) and I went to the local sports bar, where our friend Christina works.

I had a Long Island Ice Tea, a Red Hook, a white Russian, a Baybreeze, and a Bass ale.

Delightful.

It made me realize how much I wished each and every one of you, aw heck, even Lex, lived nearby so we could all go out and "get a few". Some beers, too.

Then I realized Greg does live nearby, but refuses to socialize with us. Then I was sad.

Seconds later I was happy, remembering we're all supposed to be acting "nicer" to one another.

Uh... that was what I was supposed to gain from this thread, wasn't it?

WASN"T IT?!!

by **ChainGangGuy** » Tue May 13, 2003 9:45 pm

A nice portabella sandwich. Sounds scrumptious, Friend Yogurt.

Today, I leisurely sipped a hot bowl of wonton soup as I sat under the cool, refreshing shade of an old oak tree. This was near my new place of employment. A new restaurant. So, expect some entries from you know who.

Brandtson the Viru---

Sorry, since we're all trying to be "nicer" now, expect some new posts from Brandtson the Overly-Upbeat Waiter.

Chow, friends!

Now that is what I like to see, Roody! A nice, healthy lunch full of all of nature's goodness, and then a long stroll to enjoy the beauty which surrounds us every day!

I think tonight I shall do so on the beach, and enjoy the fresh Pacific air from one side and marvel at the chaotic wonders of the mountains on the other. I am SO looking forward to it!

By the way, for lunch I had a delicious Greek salad with low-fat citrus vinaigrette!

I had a huge portabella sandwich at Soup Brothers, a place I hadn't been to before but am destined to visit again. Later on in the afternoon, I plan on enjoying the sunshine and going on a long walk.

Knock it off. If you want to give other people shit who are presently in the right frame of mind for this thing, then so be it. Everyone should be able to defend themselves on here. But this is not normal for Pinback, and I won't have you dropping all this shit on him because you know you can get away with it and escape from the beating you so deserve, you giant pussy.

I had Arby's. Because I was out anyway, to buy a friend <i>GTA:VC</i> as a thank-you for taking care of my house and one dog while I was in Italy. I also picked up <i>Spirited Away</i> for Amy.

And, you know, the Cheery Pinback has a point. I've been getting up before 7 the last two days and today I got the application for my mortgage refinance done, and I feel pretty good about it. Particularly since it will save me $220,000 in interest over the fifteen years I'm cutting off the mortgage.

Sorry about that, Jonsey! You could make a sandwich the night before, but (especially with tuna) it might be all soggy and icky by the next day. :(

What will you have for lunch now? I am going to have a salad! Is there anything more delicious and refreshing that a nice salad?

by **Ice Cream Jonsey** » Tue May 13, 2003 9:51 am

You know what I would love for lunch? A tuna fish sandwich. I could have made one before I left for work today, but I was in a hurry.

...

... Oh, keee-rist. Now he's got me doing it. I am going to change the by-line of this site to "The Great E/N Empire" if this keeps up.

by **pinback** » Tue May 13, 2003 9:35 am

Sorry about my little outburst last night, fellas! I forgot to keep it on the positive! But I'm back on track, now that it's Tuesday morning, and we've got a fresh new day ahead of us!

Hey, at lunchtime today, instead of just bringing a burger back to your desk and scarfing it while you surf the net, why not go outside, and take a long walk. Is there a park near where you work? Or some trees? A leisurely stroll through nature can really do wonders for your outlook and your sense of well-being!

And hey, if there are any roses along the way, you know you have to STOP and SMELL them! :^)
