if people just post generic shit humour its going to be repurposed, clink or nothing

this thread is for the post equivalent of campari and soda in a crystal rocks glass

it can be saved just needs a little room to breathe is all

Notre Musique was my first in the theater, and the thing I remember most clearly was telling some woman who kept rustling what sounded like the world's loudest cellophane that she was "ruining the movie for everyone here." She revealed that she was holding an ice pack on her freshly sprained ankle and I turned on my heels and high-tailed it to the last row in back. I still think she ruined it.

3rd post is extraneous, but the 2nd, of course, is a well-formed clink!

per Sarah's suggestion of outing our own occasional clink!s, the above kind of nested hilarity is something I have indulged in

eg I once had a fb status "comments about how Christmas ads are getting earlier every year are getting earlier every year" oh the wit

What about people who say: "I don't own a television, because I always watch tv programs on my computer, or occasionally my phone, so there's no real point in my owing yet another screen, unless it's so I can say I own a television, so as to avoid annoying all you thin-skinned folks who find this mere fact of my television non-ownership irritating."

That's ok. People who met Alexander Pope irl were often put off by him, too.

lol

i had two glasses of different nebbiolos last night

were they dope

i want to hear the gab about nebbiolos

they were dope, one was sparkling, the other was a rose

there was lots of gabbing while i had said nebbiolos

in fact, i ordered the nebbiolos specifically because it was a gabby night out

there's a nice italian term vino di meditazione that would describe a good nebbiolo from piedmont, perhaps a suitable wine for nebb to drink of an evening if he still hasn't found a forum to replace ilx in his heart

evening standard hack fay maschler is a bit of a maven for the clink aesthetic

To my surprise, my companion says: “I like Harrods the way I like the zoo. They both try to make the incongruous seem normal.”

Finally the huge spaceship with its very numerous and highly qualified crew arrived on Arret, the planet so far and so similar to our Earth...... Surely there would be something to learn. In fact there were, contrary to other sectors, large differences with respect to Earth. The vines had similar although obviously wore different names. L'oloibben, l' arebrab, l 'otteclod were typical of the north west of a nation very similar to Italy, the Ailati.

Reminds me of my exchange with a student last Thursday who wondered why she'd gotten a C+ on a paper.

She: But I wrote about [an impressive topic].

Me: Great. Go back and write that paper."
