Wherein I start talking back and someone gets their rocks off. ( Lengthy... )

[smileyeagle1021]

Occasionally they won't. I then have to ask them to please SLOW DOWN and to perhaps spell the name phonetically. About 50 percent of the time, they don't know what that means.

i've tried reading back stuff phonetically, and people are so stupid they get confused as to why I'm putting in these extra words making their email address longer

Well, since I wouldn't even be caught dead in a pink camo miniskirt.....

I would. I'd wrestle in one.

Someday I'm going to make a pink camo outfit and put up pictures...

I have seen dyed pink beaver coats for sale, but didn't feel like doing a Google search for 'dyed pink beaver'.

Why ever not?

as always.

But I do feel guilty about enjoying Gravekeeper's suffering so much.

This reminds me...I'm about to give you two situations. One has actually happened and the other one I'm saving for SCs. Both involve using phonetics to give password information.

#1

Me: "Okay, your password is M like Mary, H like Harry, B like Barry, G like Gary, L like Larry, J like-"
SC: "Wait wait wait...what?"
Me:

At least that was deliberate. I completely humiliated myself at work calling another organisation. They asked for my postcode which in the UK is a mixture of letters - and in this case ends PB.

I said "P for" and my mind went completely blank (actually I kept thinking of things like psychology) and eventually I said "P for little green things, B for..." at which point I could only think of B for buzzing things and collapsed into total uncontrollable giggles.

The man was very nice and started giggling too. When he finally worked out what I meant he seemed relieved saying "I thought you were talking about aliens". And that was the day I printed out the phonetic alphabet and stuck it up next to my telephone.

I offer up this photo as proof that there are more tacky things out there.

Go, and you too may see the dyed pink beaver pelt.

The irony here is if you dig through the site you find out the pelts come from Nunavut. ><

[Igorina]

Why ever not?

I'll let *you* run that search first. You can tell me what comes up. I'll take your word for it.

Huh. I guess they do, at that. Umm..wow. Here, have some rum balls. They'll help make things easier.

I have one of those. Including the hat. Wore it for Halloween last year. Alas, the only person I know of that got a decent picture of it completely and utterly failed to pass said picture on to me. Dumb drama-queen b****.

*turns on safe search*
Hmm... first response in Images is a pink beaver fur jacket!

Since Gravekeeper has no pink pants, they have to go elsewhere to complete the ensemble. Maybe with some of these:

Your Google-Fu is better than mine.

I just remember seeing the pink beaver fur coat in a Macy's when shopping with my mom. She and both agreed that it was a horrible thing to do to a beaver pelt. After all, what had the beaver done to the trapper?

Since Gravekeeper has no pink pants, they have to go elsewhere to complete the ensemble. Maybe with some of these:

*pink vinyl pants*

^-.-^

If I could actually wear pink, I'd find those tempting....but I just have a weakness for vinyl.

Hot Tips for America #6

SC: “Yeah, I just wanna tell ya about this cult that’s in Vancouver and it’s like a cult of Pickering and-“
Me: “Ok look, are you done proving Darwin wrong yet?”
SC: ".....ummm..."
Me: "....."
SC: ".....<click>"

What? I thought it was a perfectly valid question.

Sounds reasonable to me.

Your name has 23 letters. 23. I hate your parents.

Sounds like some of the names I created for BBGs when running AD&D games. I always liked to make them really difficult to say...

Names like that just beg the question: "Your parents didn't like you very much, did they?"

867 - A New Winner

I have now born witness to a fashion tragedy even more horrific then pink camo.

Pink Suede.

A Pink Suede JACKET at that.

My GF would probably love it. Even more so, if I could find a Tinkerbell patch to put on it. . .

Well, I'm halfway through my work week. How's everyone else's going? =p

Not nearly as bad as yours is, apparently. My sympathies.

Well, if you insist...

When I put the phrase in quotes, I got this and this.

Without quotes, I got a lot of fur sites, stuff on Beaver Dam, or towns with Beaver in the name, and other stuff...including my favorite, "Boulder Woman Ticketed for Dyeing Poodle Pink."

Strangely enough, nothing that made me feel the need to delete my browser history, or want to or anything like that.

867 - A Challenger Appears. Again.

Ok, first there was Pink Camo. Which was finally usurped by Pink Suede…<shiver>. Now we have another new contender:

Pink Latte. Pink Latte. Pink. Latte.

I Counted

Your name has 23 letters. 23. I hate your parents.

Two things.

1) OHMYDOG How is it PINK?!?

2) What the flying kumquat was that guy's name!?

I have no idea how to put this, but I think I seriously just talked to a gremlin. It wanted pants.

Which version? The cute "bright light, bright light" version. Or the fed-them-after-midnight "Gizmo ca-ca" variety?

I must be pure trailer park, because I actually liked the pink latte sweater and the pink suede jacket. The hat, I am not so fussy about.

Pink is actually a colour that I can wear and get compliments on.

Same here. With a pair of jeans, it'd be cute. That being said, I get compliments on wearing pink, too. Except it's of the "you look cute" like a little kid type....which I don't like.

Go, and you too may see the dyed pink beaver pelt.

I have seen dyed pink beaver coats for sale, but didn't feel like doing a Google search for 'dyed pink beaver'.

I'm sorry, but apparently my mind is permanently in the sewer. But I did try Googling "dyed pink beaver" and only got things about animal pelts. Not at all what I expected.

AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!! MY EYES! THEY BURN!

[Andara Bledin]

The pants are actually PVC, but still...

I happen to like the color pink, myself, but I don't have the type of figure that can really carry off anything vinyl or pvc.

Truth be told, I'm wearing a dark pink shirt right now.

[Sliceanddice]

I love pink... did anyone else look at the site with the beaver pelts and see the pink fox fur?
