Aborted Thread Dumping Ground

Recommended Posts

Tonight I lied to my coworkers and told them that the Virginia Tech thing was entering my limited pantheon of Stuff I Will Never Make Fun Of, which also includes cancer and September 11. Really it's just cancer; 9/11's ship sailed years ago, and I'll probably be an asshole about this within a year or so, maybe in time for the VT game this football season.

 

I once thought about making a thread tangentially related to Weezer every week just to see if Czech would set himself on fire, but that was way too long term an effort.

Example? That actually seems like a pretty fascinating way to drive me nuts.

Maybe a thread like Songs You Appreciate Infinitely More When Drunk and at a Party. In the 7th or so post, I'd say something about how this one time "Say It Ain't So" came on at 2 in the morning, and...

 

Or Oh God, the 90s Were Eight Years Ago, talking about how I feel old and which music has held up and why. The endstage of all this would probably be a bunch of posts in all-caps like SHIMMERING POWER-POP, all in one big blitz like one of those Pavlovian training sessions in Clockwork Orange.

Awesome. You never should've aborted that. You always know just which buttons to push.

When I first started posting here I wanted to create a thread with the title "Hey *poster name* you gay ho" and content that read "the reason I called the police is because you're fat", to this day I have no idea why.

 

Well I do, because I was 13, but still.

I nearly made a thread once called "Federal Agents Mad/'cause I'm flagrant" in CE about the NYPD and other law enforcement agencies tracking people who belong to protest groups.

I was thinking about "Tapped my cell/and the phone in the basement" for the NSA Wiretapping thread.

 

Well, I wish I was.

I was at dinner with fiancee and another couple (that I don't know very well) last night. I was talking about how I was teaching about the Holocaust. They asked what I was doing to teach it and I, without thinking, started joking about how I was going to have my classes do a Holocaust Idol TV show. Luckily, they liked tasteless humor.

 

 

 

 

I one day wish to live in a world where you can tell a hilarious AIDS joke.

Beyond the Valley of the Dolls

Roger Ebert's greatest masterpiece

 

Seriously, a great fucking movie. Just entertaining to watch. Unfortunately, there's no room in the movies folder for indie/cult/foreign films, only horror and mass-produced pap. Oh, and really obsessive TV shows, apparently.

 

Not that I'm any less guilty in participating in those other threads, but it could use some spicing up.

Not an AIDS joke, but I have a bunch of jokes I call party stoppers. Here's one:

 

 

"What did the deaf, dumb, and blind kid get for Christmas?"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Cancer."

I was going to do a TSM comics thread, with cartoon strips photoshopped to refer to TSM posters. I did one based on the boards infatuation with Leena, then lost motivation.

 

I'll do it one day and it will be awesome.
