Why...y'all are a bunch of smartasses!
I like this place. Can I stay here? They're mean in the other places, and they don't have a sense of humor.

1. Sure, but you need to memorize all the necessary history about the lounge.
Olive Garden, Oscar, Rachel Ray, Chuggo, and the like.

There will be a quiz.

2. Oh, dear. No one said there would be pop quizzes.
Can't I just sleep with the teacher or something?

21. But your gender is undeclared
When you go through Customs, do you say, "I have nothing to declare?"

35. I've been called worse
I was told the other day that I'm part of "the investor class." Evidently a 401K with a few bucks in it qualifies for some DU-ers.

16. May I ask questions?
For example....what is the air speed velocity of a fully laden swallow? Also, would it make a difference if Schrödinger's cat had a litter box? And finally, who put the bomp in the bomp-a-bomp-a-bomp?

Edited on Tue Sep-30-08 08:20 PM by Gormy Cuss
Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. Also sitting in are McCain and Palin. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

Sarah pipes up and asks:"In what respect, George?"

36. Well, I do have a job. For the time being. So, gotta go.
But, my advice is that you follow that road with the oddly-colored pavement. After the Union rally the International Guild of Lollipop Makers, Local 119 is holding. They've come out for Obama, but it pretty much went without saying. Something about them considering Palin a witch.

43. Truer words were never spoken!
I told somebody on another thread to go back into the shop for repairs-they forgot to install a sense of humor. Then suggested he ask for his money back. I think I really ticked him off, especially since he was trying to inform the rest of us as to his superior knowledge of .....wait for it....economics!
What can I say?

44. Very intense...very intense
Some of the folks on DU are very intense, by my observation. I can be that way sometimes too, but usually I have friends around who will remind me that I am, ultimately, a dork-ette. And they remember all the dork-ette things I've ever done. That's the problem with the internet. A lot of people are on their own, and they don't have anybody that they trust enough to tell them when they're being a mondo zippy dweeb.

By the way -- I hated economics more than any single class I ever had in college. I think most economists are simply talking out of their asses, and have no clue as to what's really going to happen.

46. I am math impaired!
I don't want to say I had trouble with math, but my hs algebra teacher was planning to adopt me so he could use me a tax deduction. We spent a lot of time together!:rofl:

BTW, the reason I went after that guy is because he attacked the op, blaming her and her family for the financial problems they were having, calling them too stupid to manage money, have credit, etc. I feel the need to water board those people with sarcasm. It got so bad, she decided to leave DU.

50. You also have to memorize all the buzz phrases from movies
such as Office Space, Blazing Saddles, The Big Lebowski, Animal House, Young Frankenstein, Airplane! and so forth. Further, you must know in detail the plot, dialog, all major and minor characters and the actors portraying them, important crew members and the sordid personal history of the director of at least one obscure foreign film, preferably from an obscure nation. Then you beat the Lounge into suicidal submission with this knowledge.

However, you're not eligible for full obnoxious without the obscure foreign flick. Get back to us on that one.
