I was thinking wistfully of our number swelling, and hoped it might be Ask Several Drunks.

Well, Matthew, I certainly share your longing but I can't help but notice, *folds arms and assumes paternal counternance*, that while we Yanks have more or less maintained our ranks, Her Majesty's troops have, sadly, diminished in number resulting in a tragic deficit. Where is that indefatigable British Spirit?

I came here dying of thirst and who gave me water? The Brits! I stood on the beach at Dunkirk and who strapped buckets to their feet and walked across the channel to rescue me? The Brits! Who invented a clock that enabled seagoers to seek out strange new worlds and new civilizations without falling off of the edge? A Brit! Who rallied the British nation to follow an insane American warmonger to invade a small defenseless country and...well...nevermind that one. Who fills the stands to watch a cricket match, a game that the majority of the world finds totally pointless? The Brits!

I could go on and on if I could think of anything. You see? I am at my "wit's end" as it were, whereas someone like Rex could pick up these thoughts and run towards that infinite horizon known to lessor minds as "British Humor".

Rally your countrymen, Matthew. Ask a Drunk is assembled on the shore of a literary Dunkirk and instead of Hitler's army, it is apathy and mediocrity that approach from the east.

RALLY, you Brits! Rally in the name of England and the Queen! Remember the immortal words of Winston Churchill..."We have nothing to fear but sobriety..."

I see you have lost interest in the blog already, Zen. Maybe if it had breasts...

Aimless (Aimless), Wednesday, 10 November 2004 20:22 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm working on that.

I, like Al Capp, like breasts. Big ones.

Oh, and Bob Dylan.

Breasts and Bob Dylan.

The very thought causes quivers.

seven months pass...
Zen's blog never did acquire breasts. Pity.

Aimless (Aimless), Saturday, 18 June 2005 04:19 (eighteen years ago) link

It's better this way. From what I gather Zen tips over quite regularly just from drinks. Imagine his state with huge breasts on his blog!

I dunno, would Missouri really be all that different?

They might have known more than they claim to know, which in turn, would have made them so very different. Every braggart would be claiming they are from Missouri.

four years pass...

The more things change, the more confused I get, which represents a kind of stability, I suppose.

A pleasurable, positive inertia, of sorts

Yay to incessant posting of inane, asinine utterances of idiocy! Drunk history is the Best! See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hK3ZyA5mC30&feature=fvw Personally, I'm looking forward to the drunk history of the enema because I know it's something that we all want to learn more about.

Careful, the beast within quivers and snores loudly.

*Hiccup*

You had better have a drink for that Hiccup.

I used to be Dude Steel (OldPoster), Saturday, 5 February 2011 02:03 (thirteen years ago) link

We traditionalists spell it: hiccough. The reasons for this are lost in the mists of time, but dammit, traditions must be honored! That is why I am drinking this bumper of mead.

Aimless, Saturday, 5 February 2011 02:07 (thirteen years ago) link

Is that a '57 Buick bumper?

That's a lot of mead, but I'm sure you are up to the challenge!

I used to be Dude Steel (OldPoster), Saturday, 5 February 2011 16:12 (thirteen years ago) link

..... and since you are drinking mead .... wouldn't it be "lost in the mysts of tyme"?
