Boredom. . . A Favor

Post by **Amskeptic** » Mon Oct 23, 2006 9:04 am

Do you ever find yourself bored at the keyboard? If so, stand up and walk away. Go outside. Play with the kids. Clean up the dishes in the sink.
Wax your nice red KYB shocks.

You can see bored posts cropping up here. Some bored people get antagonistic for a little bored sport. Other bored people then feed the bored antagonist. If you are bored, get away from the keyboard.

When you are refreshed, come on back and participate in actual discussions, debates, share your knowledge and experience.

My kids are grown and disowned anyway.
The maid does the dishes.
Do you really think I'd go with anything less than Koni shocks?

(Ahem, you were talking about me, right?

)

I once fed a raccoon a slice of buttered bread. Instead of taking the bread, it delicately bit my finger, but not enough so where the skin was broken. I often wonder how differently my life would have turned out if the creature HAD drawn blood...

So you came back refreshed, I see.

I once trapped a mouse at the age of six. The little bastard fastened on to me like a pitbull mouse. I was waving my hand trying to throw off my equally determined foe trying to keep hanging on. It drew blood alright.
And my life sure did turn out different

Was it a radioactive mouse? Just like Peter Parker. You should start wearing a cape you know.

One time I was hauled out of the cornfields of Indiana by Deer Creek Ampitheater Security for trying to sneak into a show. Ten minutes earlier, a farmer sitting on top of his silo fired his shot gun into the air and yelled at us, "Get the F out of here, you pieces of S!!! Don't run... WALK!!! [BOOOoom!]"

Punchline: We were trying to sneak into a show featuring Ratt and Great White.

Precisely, grasshopper. Asking the right question can sometimes be the answer itself.

Good thing you missed it. Otherwise you'd be smelling burnt hair for weeks...

(I met Great White at a roller rink in Garden Grove, CA, before they were hot. Good bunch of guys. I still have an autographed poster somewhere...)

As for bored posts, most of mine are because I'm at work trying to find an excuse to not work.

.. apparently, the folks who go into attack-mode online when they're bored have never discovered that teh intarweb is full of nudie pictures.

Not that pr0n is the only timewaster available on the internet when you're bored -- there's also fark.com, somethingawful.com, bunches of games...

Yes it was them. Tragic to say the least.

Yeah, that was the point of my rather poor joke.

Sorry Duroc, I was slow to get the joke....I had a picture of the big hair bands lead singer going up like Michael Jackson.
