The noun is fixed. Read my mind.

This is for all non-EC or peripheral-EC topics. We all know how much we love talking about 'The Man' but sometimes we have other interests.

Corporate snobbery

Post by A rope leash »

Well, if that company can't appreciate a hand-painted rendering of one of the most famous pin-ups in history, then it might be time for you to move on anyway!

You should see the shit my former boss got fired for!

Did you just take a guess at your own verb LTZ :lol: ...or did it appear during the 'lost time'?

Nouns you clowns

Post by A rope leash »

This game does not work with nouns, as maybe you can see. The players are to deduce the noun by asking logical questions, not by poking the noun-fixer until he gives up and spills it. The fixer of the noun should never just give it up like a nerd-girl out back of the homecoming dance. He should also ignore chickenshit rhyming questions.

Whenever the noun is discovered, it's relationship to Elvis is revealed and a time-consuming "party" is produced by the noun-fixer. Whenever board members refuse to play, they are periodically attacked with vacuous ranting and dubious web links. Thus, the circle of life is reaffirmed once again in the simple play of common folk addicted to the pretentions of posting intelligently on a famous muscian's fan forum; in that a brain can be picked from afar, and a party can be had with Elvis invited in celebration of that picking, that harvest, that gift of a noun in my head that you can have if only you say it.

The noun is fixed. Read my fucking mind.

My mistake

Post by A rope leash »

I'm sorry, I wasn't going to post anymore, but I got drunk last night and thought I was cute.

Simply because the noun is fixed is no reason to continue on with this time-wasting. If you folks can't see that the world is coming to an end, and that your time is better spent elsewhere, well then, you're just like me.

Really, this is a simple game of questions. It's way better if you're drunk.

Here's how it should go:

Is it a person, place or thing? Thing.

Is it animal. vegetable, or mineral? It is none of these.

Is it tangible or intangible? Intangible.

Is it a concept or an emotion? I'd say it's a concept.

Is it scientific? It might be considered so.

Give us a hint!

I will, because you've been good and I'm a bit hungover.

It rhymes with "drive".

Is it "nine"?

No, that's John Lennon, and it doesn't rhyme with "drive".

Is it "survive"?

All of my nouns are found in the titles of songs written by Elvis Costello. I don't think "survive" is among those nouns, because "survive" is a verb.

Is it Steve Nieve?

NO! NO! NO!

What do we have for her, Johnny?

Miss BA! Come on down! You're the next contestant on Sooooo What!

And now, a cheap little party featuring two of my favorite subjects, oddball cars and oddball musicians.

5ive Gears in Reverse

Five gears in reverse
For girls looking at the big lift
Somebody send out for the night nurse
Please don't stick me on the late shift
If you don't know by now
Nobody's gonna tell you
If you don't know by now
The shock will probably kill you

Image

But if your patience is corrupted and you still cannot decide
You're sitting in the garage contemplating suicide
And you have no motivation you can't even catch your breath
All of this acceleration is driving you to death

Image

Five gears in reverse
You think i don't know what i'm doing
Another fashionable first
Like walking down the road to ruin
But if you're safe and sound
Don't let me interrupt you
And if you're gagged and bound
Well how can i corrupt you

Image

Image
Forget about Beethoven, Rembrant, and rock and roll
Forget about Mickey Mouse, Marlboro, and Coca-cola
Forget about Cadillac, Mercedes, and Toyota
Forget about Buddha, Allah, Jesus, and Jehovah

Hurry down doomsday the bugs are takin' over!
