Ochlocracy in Action
i read. I LOL'd. I shed a slight tear over the plight of the struggling young would-be actor. I cheered when he got the phone call. I rejoiced when I saw his success as an eyepatch model.
but then, I started thinking about the time I saw a product, with a photo of model using the product, and realized this boy has a long way to go before he will be modelling for BALD HEAD WIPES.
i applaud your writing, Pops. are you, by any chance, attempting the National Novel Writing Month gambit?
Crap! Is it national novel writing month time again? But I don't yet have my daily excuses ready! I'll never be able to never write my novel now!
Toi: I would participate, but the awful acronymic "NaNoWriMo" puts me right off.
LongNamePerson: It's OK, any novel someone writes in a month won't be worth reading anyway. Even that Dan Brown takes like five years between books and that shit is still awful.
yeah, but the NaNoWriMo website has a thing called Procrastination Station. You no longer even have to come up with your own ideas for procrastinating - they do it for you!
it makes "writing" so much easier to have procrastination tools supplied for you.
btw, I'm using NaNoWriMo to prod myself into writing a bunch of dissertation material. I'm certainly not writing a novel.
though i think, even in a month, i could do a lot better than that Twilight shit.
ps. "moi" is actually frogboots. not some new reader. i am not sure if you knew that. but since mrgumby2u is still haunting these hallowed haloscan comments, i figured you should know that *I* (frogboots) am also ghosting around here.
You will NEVER lose me as a reader. because, you know, otherwise, i'd have to work on my dissertation.
At least he's not featured on the Herpes ads.
Toi: The homepage link next to your name was always kind of a giveaway, just so you know.
Kay-Z: Who says he can't get it one day? Don't you crush his dreams.
duh. yeah. so, not the sharpest knife in the drawer, am i?
Let me be the first to point out that a one-eyed dude would clearly need something more than just a box with the word 'eye patch' on it in order for him to spot his needed aide. A photo of hot-but-99%-most-likely-gay model guy sporting the patch is a logical step for the uni-eyed.
Toi: It's OK, you don't have to pass the Obvious Perception test to get into graduate school. Luckily for me.
SJ: I guess we'll always just have to wonder what it is about one-eyed-ness that always also confers illiterate homosexuality.
As someone who really does see with only one eye, sans eye patch, I am offended by this line of talk. Or, maybe I'm flattered?
Although .... I wonder if the big bold letters promising "shaped for comfort and protection" also grabs the attention of the large homo-erotic eye-patch fetishist demographic they most obviously are trying to appeal to?
I'm just impressed that I could so easily and efficiently alienate one-fifth of my total readership with an eye patch reference.
Is that efficiency?
Har, matey.
eye eye, Cap'm
why do you assume eye-patch fetishism is homo-erotic? or are you speaking of a homo-erotic subset of eye-patch fetishism?
and kz, way to go with the eye, eye.
Moi, anything "shaped for comfort and protection" has an obvious male-centric appeal. Pair that with Blinky the Babe, and, well.... gosh, I guess when I have to explain the joke, whatever gratification I get out of my delusional self-perceived wit is lost. Thus, thanks for throwing me the bone on my pun.
And, therein, lies another pun. Please, don't make me explain it.
