Wherein We Sing A Little Song

Learn something new everyday. Whether or not its something you wanted to learn is another matter.

Yep. Like the day I learned what felching was. (From conversation, not experience, thank you very much!)

Lovely....(for the unfamiliar, felching basically involves sucking up the er....deposit a man makes after sex)

And on that note, I'm now starting to wonder if "Jibber jabber joo" can be a new euphenism for sex

Actually, it's more involved than that....but we'll let it go for now.

My innocence was lost somewhere in Year 12....

You know, it’s not the constant bad jokes that bother me, or the fact that every joke made on this line is basically the same. It’s that someone was sitting at home before they called and actually had the thought “Ha ha! I bet they’ve never heard this one before!” and prepared the joke in advance. Totally convinced of its hilarity.

Actually, they're not thinking it's an *original* joke. You're giving them too much credit. It's more like 'Ah ha, this is the appropriate moment to make that joke that goes with this scenario. I will make the joke and we will both laugh because it's a joke, and jokes are funny. And everyone will be happy, because I made the joke. Well done, self! ... .... I like pie.'

Proof once again that most people never mature emotionally beyond the age of about 5. What're you gonna do?

Yes, thats quite enough detail as is, thanks. ;p

I will make the joke and we will both laugh because it's a joke, and jokes are funny. And everyone will be happy, because I made the joke. Well done, self! ... .... I like pie.'

Ugh, probably. Its like every other person that calls is that one uncle who thinks he's funny but no one has the heart to tell him otherwise because he's been under the delusion for over 30 years.

I beg to differ.

From years of dealing with people in the bar/restaurant industry that constantly make the same joke without realizing they are doing just that, I can tell you that most people who make such jokes truly DO believe they are being original, and that no one before them has ever told such a joke.

Sad, but sadly true.

This explains sooo much. Nunavut is full of corrupted GLaDOS cores with access to the phone network

That actually makes perfect sense, when you think about it. Wasn't the Borealis vessel "misplaced" to a distant arctic location? I bet they took a bunch of corrupted cores with them which escaped up there.

From what I've read of GK so far, there's not only the Pants Core but the Prince Charles Core, the Lucky Ticket Core, the Spelling Deficient Core, the Taxi Core, and the Smell Core.

Vick and the others could be a version of the Fact Core, as well, since the Fact Core often provides "facts" about Abraham Lincoln sleepwalking through freeing the slaves and other nonsense that seem awfully "Vick-like"
