The Age Of Denial


Last week, I said I'd accept no more help...and I meant it, then. But Ozma can't seem to keep away from me. The poor girl seems a mess without her bagels, and whatever else she eats when it's not Passover; I think it might just be bagels. So, she wanted to name this week's "Age." Okay. Sensitive to the Catholics and whatever other denominations are celebrating whatever it is they celebrate this time of year, I told her it
must be universal. The Age of Denial is what she came up with--
I think that's pretty good; it even covers the atheists.


Everyone who wins this weeks wins 25 tokens.
Well, except for Lndon, Carc, and Matt who get 15. . .

my mother is convinced i smoke in my bedroom. if i open a bottle of perfume in my room, she'll walk in and say, "i smell smoke." if i eat chinese food in my room, she'll walk in and say, "i smell smoke." i smoked in the kitchen the other day, and she came home and said, "mmm, what'd you make for dinner? it smells delicious."

>>Why do you put a baby in a blender feet first? So you can see the expression on its face!<<(soup)

When I read this joke, as told by soup, I was decidedly unhappy with the puchline. I began a quest for a new punchline:

ZYX:Why do you put a baby in a blender face first?
Fnk n gruv:to get the juices flowing, as to not upset the local ordinence of putting feet in a blender without a face first

ZYX:Why do you put a baby in a blender feet first?
GirlEmpire:ummm...i dunno

ZYX:Why do you put a baby in a blender feet first?
LILITH18:hmm...lets see her...i have no idea

So, my friends aren't really bright. I tried....


Uh-oh, another error. Tylered and Atani win 10.

Do you realize by stating this you have subsequently invoked the creation of an FBI file on yourself because I think we all know that Bill Gates could buy the FBI, and if you could buy the FBI, wouldn't you? So you better be carefull what you say or Bill Gates might send over a group of G-men to knock your knees out and replace your PC with an '84 b&w Macintosh (which incidentally still runs more reliable than any Win95 system, not that that's anything to brag about. After all, my nose runs more reliable than a Win95 system... which reminds me, I need to pick up some Kleenex) In conclusion, it doesn't really matter what you say anyway, there's gonna be a file on you. Hell, the government probably is wondering what I use all this kleenex for. Well I assure you it has nothing to do with Robert Kennedy or gerbils.

Hmm, and on second glance, 20 tokens seems better for these two.
10 is even better, but I'll stick with 20.

My track coach told us that we should do twenty push-ups everytime we change the channel. You know, the Discovery channel has been looking pretty good lately.

I've always wanted to go to a baseball game, catch a foul ball, run onto the field, go up to the umpire and say, "I believe you lost something." and hand him the ball.

So this guy comes up to me and says, "I haven't had a bite all day." And I tell him, "You're fishing up the wrong tree, buddy!"

Oh, and these three posts only won tokens because I was gonna let Stotan's win something, but then I realized Randomer-mentioned winning posts always come in threes--or is that celebrity deaths? Well, 10 to each.

Hmmm... I found my TI-30 calculator this morning. I was looking at the buttons, and I noticed there was STO and there was TAN. Stotan. Hmph. This is almost as exciting as the time I threw up in the backseat of someone's car in Wisconsin because of a bottle of Mello Nyello. Who knew?

That leaves us with the last two winners of the week--Khaleth and Dawn. They do each win 25 tokens, for illustrating that sometimes things can't be left unsaid.

Call me evil and twisted, but there is one thing I still do that I started doing years and years ago. I buy a box of Lucky Charms and eat all the marshmallows out of the box. Then I put the box back on the shelf until it gets stale. Hell, if I knew of any of those starving people in Ethiopia, I'd send them the box, because they won't miss the damn marshmallows, anyway.

Is it that time of the month, XFo?

That's it. But, I really must apologize if I led any of you on, believe me it wasn't intentional. I think this week of giving up of nothing, has finally got to me.
