Down bro with the brown dough.

is this a euphemism for something... else?

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 19:51 (sixteen years ago) link

I didn't have much (read: any) experience with weed in the Chicago suburbs prior to college, so I heard the two terms interchangeably and wasn't sure which was the anomaly.

Your search - "Down bro with the brown dough" - did not match any documents.

Suggestions:

* Make sure all words are spelled correctly.
* Try different keywords.
* Try more general keywords.

PHEW! I was really afraid that would to an urban dictionary definition that would give me night terrors.

the "face down" video is really a let down. No one is face down at all!

I was just thinking this morning how it would be fun to be in Gambier, Ohio, having coffee in the bookstore and going to a class today.

My heart is not really in this recurring two-year-old joke wherein I post photos of Wooster on threads that deej is on.

Any ideas for something fun to do tonight?

Fun and cheap?

I'm thinking of going to free Thursday at the Art Institute and checking out the Jeff Wall exhibition before it's gone. But you guys saw it in NYC, right?

Eazy, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:05 (sixteen years ago) link

stay home, open the windows, feel the cool night air as you snuggle under a blanket and watch TV.

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:06 (sixteen years ago) link

No,E. That looks good!

KitCat, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:06 (sixteen years ago) link

better than snuggling, though? Be honest.

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:07 (sixteen years ago) link

The problem is that we're still getting used to this new routine of not having band practice a couple times during the week. Also, I've had this dumb cold. So basically we've been homebodies all week.

KitCat, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:07 (sixteen years ago) link

If you guys want to meet up, name a time that's good -- I think the museum's free anytime after 5 and open 'til 8.

Eazy, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:07 (sixteen years ago) link

Art Institute is free on Thursdays now?

jaymc, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:07 (sixteen years ago) link

And why no band practice?

jaymc, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:08 (sixteen years ago) link

Ben is on a design project team. He had to apply to get in, and it lasts until next summer I believe. So, he's working full time and going to this other thing in the evenings during the week. Thus, he can't play shows or practice during the week any more.

KitCat, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:09 (sixteen years ago) link

This means we only practice on Sundays. Once a week is probably the norm for most bands but we're used to 2-3.

KitCat, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:10 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh, we do two three-hour practices, so I feel ya.

jaymc, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:12 (sixteen years ago) link

There's also an exhibition (closing this weekend) of communal poems from Japan, basically the kind of thing we all do in bars:

BUTTERED BUNS (2): ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

Good for Party magazine and Mr. Peabody Records present....

Buttered Buns 2: Electric Boogaloo

In the world of rare vinyl, DJ's Mike Cole and Mark Grusane own the store....literally. Everyone else is just shopping in it.

Their record store, Mr. Peabody's, is the finest in Chicago, boasting a collection of rare vinyl that no one else in the city can touch. When your favorite international DJ's come to play, Mr. Peabody's is where they go to find obscure dancefloor vinyl no one else has. Everyone from Dimitri from Paris to Kool Herc has bought from Mr. Peabody's.

Playing Sonotheque for the first time ever, Mike and Mark open their vaults for a very special night of classic dance music and sexy bullshit. This is a rare, special treat that you music fans do not want to miss. They pack more heat than an oven door, tastefully folding rare disco, soul, funk, into New Wave, house, hip-hop and boogie. Listening to them play records is like being on a time traveling Be prepared to dance...hard.

Please rsvp to rsvp.goodforparty.com for reduced admission. Early arrival is strongly suggested.

9pm-2am
$10 cover after 10pm

jaymc: "unironic" or "un-ironic"?

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:34 (sixteen years ago) link

This is like a Death Row Records meeting. You go and try to find them and then they jump you.

"a historian" or "an historian"?

Eazy, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:34 (sixteen years ago) link

Webster's sez "unironic."

jaymc, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link

Also how do you set off song titles? Quotes?

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link

a historian?

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:36 (sixteen years ago) link

song titles, quotes; albums, italics

kenan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:37 (sixteen years ago) link

An album is like a book title (itals) and a song is like a poem (quotes) -- that's how I remember.

Laurel, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:38 (sixteen years ago) link

cool, that's what i "thought"

Jordan, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:38 (sixteen years ago) link

With punctuation outside the quotation marks, because who would really respect one inside "I Walk The Line"?

Eazy, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:38 (sixteen years ago) link

Hmmm. Askoxford.com is inconclusive:

The form an for the indefinite article is used before a spoken vowel sound, regardless of how the written word is spelt. If you say 'an otel' when speaking (which is now often regarded as distinctly old-fashioned), then it may be appropriate for you to write 'an hotel'; but most people say 'hotel' with a sounded 'h', and should write 'a hotel'.

By contrast, words such as 'honour', 'heir' or 'hour' in which the 'h' sound is dropped are written with 'an'.

I think the BBC decided that it's "An Hotel", weirdly.

There was another recent thread all about ans and as (what is the best way to write that, by the way, "an"s and "a"s?) and aspirated hs, Charlie. Can't rememeber what it was called.

I think "an historical" etc is widely deprecated, yes, though it seems to be one of those hypercorrective things that people do to try to sound right. I can't believe you really want to write "an hotel". Why?

-- Alba, Tuesday, April 24, 2007 6:39 AM (4 months ago) Bookmark Link

in the same way an American might write "an herb" i suppose; or indeed in the same way i'd write "an honour".

Wait, we've been through this, because I posted "an" and a photo from WKRP sometime in 2006.
