Heh. I called Obama a "Muslin"

[MynameisBlarney]

on huffpo and some people didn't get it.
It's the little things in life ya treasure.

[PoliticAverse]

1. At least you didn't claim he was a follower of...

Vladimir Linen.

[MynameisBlarney]

2. Oh shit!

I will now! lol
Thank you!

[madinmaryland]

3. Nice post, Paul Pot!!

[EastTennesseeDem]

4. And everyone knows...

he worships Satin.

[pipi_k]

5. Why are you trying

to denimize him?

[MynameisBlarney]

83. That's a really good one, lol

Now I gotta find some horrible ads from the 70's with denim everything.

[MynameisBlarney]

6. hehehe

I love you guys

[AnneD]

7. What, were you three sheets to the wind...

when you posted. Technology and alcohol don't mix.

edited to add: never engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed person-fight fair.

[MynameisBlarney]

8. No, of course not...

I was about 2, 2-1/2 sheets to the wind.

[retread]

9. Hey! I don't cotton to that kind of name calling!

[MynameisBlarney]

10. At least I'm not

stringing you along...

That was bad....I'm out of puns. DAMMIT!

This thread is hanging on by a....thread.

[pinboy3niner]

11. You can count on me as your material witness. nt

[AnneD]

45. Only if you are...

over 300, otherwise they will see right through you, you pill you!

[pinboy3niner]

54. Some of us have a talent for fabrication

[kurtzapril4]

12. This is turning into quite some yarn.

It's knot what it seems to be, at first.

[MynameisBlarney]

13. Indeed. We're weaving quite

the crewel tapestry.

[pinboy3niner]

14. If we get caught, it's curtains for sure

"I saw it in the window and I just couldn't resist."

[MynameisBlarney]

15. One thing is certain

we can't spin our way of this tangled skein.

[pinboy3niner]

16. We can always pleat insanity

[MynameisBlarney]

17. Sew very true.

[pinboy3niner]

18. I'm sure we can pull the wool over their eyes

[MynameisBlarney]

19. I got nuthin

I'm totally out of fabric puns.

[pinboy3niner]

20. You're out of material already?

Oh, what a tangled web you wove...

[MynameisBlarney]

21. It was worth it

[pinboy3niner]

22. Yes, it was

[MynameisBlarney]

23. Cheers!

Sometimes, a useless thread like this is...well..not so useless.

[pinboy3niner]

30. This thread has something we all need more of:

FIBER!

[MynameisBlarney]

31. HAHAHAHA!!!

Nothing like a large dose of fiber to get things moving.

[kurtzapril4]

24. Don't let them hem you in.

I'm sure you told them how you felt.

[MynameisBlarney]

25. Thank you

I will not let them needle me either.

[pipi_k]

26. You can't win...

Damask if you do, and damask if you don't

[MynameisBlarney]

27. Seams a lot of DU'ers

are cut from the same cloth.

[pinboy3niner]

28. We are a tight-knit community

Some would even say DUers are brilliantine.

[MynameisBlarney]

33. brb

googling brilliantine

[pinboy3niner]

36. Here:

[MynameisBlarney]

39. You...are a gentleman and a schoolbus.

thank you

[Iggo]

29. Oh, man.

This thread turned out to be about three times longer than I expected it to be, and it was STILL funny at the end!

Nicely done, kids.

[MynameisBlarney]

32. It has proven to be quite resilient

Like a fine poly-cotton blend.

[Iggo]

35. Lol...see?

[littlemissmartypants]

34. Well, after the

unraveling of this work I can make myself a sweater coat.

[pinboy3niner]

37. Don't laugh. Twill keep you warm, won't it?

[littlemissmartypants]

38. Twill, indeed.

[MynameisBlarney]

41. I want to get one of these for my niece

she would go apeshit over that.

[OriginalGeek]

40. it's true

[MynameisBlarney]

42. d'aaaaawww!

kitteh!

[OriginalGeek]

55. Heh

it's not a thread until a kitteh shows up.

[MynameisBlarney]

65. True.

Fortunately, I think this thread is also Godwin proof.

[OriginalGeek]

74. Did someone call...

KITLER?!

[MynameisBlarney]

75. DAMMITALLTOHELL!!!

You broke the thread!

[AnneD]

44. I am just dying to see...

how this thread turns out.

[MynameisBlarney]

46. Will it end anytime soon?

I'm a frayed knot.

[AnneD]

47. I am afraid everyone...

decided to bolt!

[MynameisBlarney]

48. LOL

Perhaps this thread has come to the end of its rope.

(I'm actually quite pleasantly surprised it got this many comments though, lol)

[pinboy3niner]

52. Some of us are easly charmeused

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

49. What's with this serge of bad puns?

Ok, not all bad.

[MynameisBlarney]

50. Well...

Are there really any GOOD puns?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

53. We could canvas the DUers to find out. nt

[MynameisBlarney]

58. It is something

looming on the horizon.

[AnneD]

62. You are....

so warped!

[marzipanni]

99. The warp is useless without

the woof.

[pinboy3niner]

51. Oh c'mon, they're not so bad. I've seen worsted.

[MynameisBlarney]

56. we've been

seersucker'd

[pinboy3niner]

59. Our own fault. We should have known better than to trust someone like...

...Newt Gingham.

[MynameisBlarney]

61. Quite

He's a hounds tooth in sharkskin, that's for sure.

[OriginalGeek]

57. I wonder what some of the real names are of this thread's participants

Polly, Esther and Lee sure suit this thread well.

[MynameisBlarney]

60. Don't forget

Burl Ap

[pinboy3niner]

63. And...

...Al Paca.

[AnneD]

64. Mark Twine.....

eom.

[MynameisBlarney]

66. Or

Joey Pants.

[AnneD]

67. I can't believe it.....

67 posts, laughed my butt off, and I am the only one giving this a kick...

Have you give up this thread for lint?

[MynameisBlarney]

68. Lint?

No thanks. I'm....agknotstic.

[AnneD]

69. I give up....

No sense in trying to make a silk purse from a sow's ear.

[MynameisBlarney]

70. Hehe

I was actually trying to fit that saying in earlier.
Looks like you've got that one all sewn up.

[AnneD]

71. I have been trying to...

work velvet into this thread, but I just don't have the nap.

[MynameisBlarney]

73. Yeah..

Corduroy is another one that's proving to be difficult...
It will take some time to iron that one out.

[pinboy3niner]

76. I heard that one coming a mile away

[MynameisBlarney]

77. LMAO!

Too funny!

[pinboy3niner]

72. Guess what the theme of CTyankee's Friday Afternoon Challenge is today? ...

For your beautiful minds, DUers...the Friday Afternoon Challenge! Today: “The ‘Fabric’ of Art!”
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022215460

[riderinthestorm]

78. A true tapestry, this thread IS a work of art! nt

[MynameisBlarney]

82. I could'na dunnit

wifout ye fine lads and lasses.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

79. You guys keep this up and I swear we will have a...

A mighty good looking Flag!

[MynameisBlarney]

80. LOL

It's gonna be a mix of so many different materials...which is a good thing.

[LeftofObama]

81. This thread is a stitch!

[Bucky]

84. Were you expecting such a smooth discussion? Cause you've got a really high threadcount here.

I'm pretty sure you've covered all the available puns by now.









































So maybe it's time to quilt.

[pinboy3niner]

85. Oh, bee quiet!

Save the terrycloth because we're not ready yet to throw in the towel.

[MynameisBlarney]

86. I can't quilt to save my life...

But I have been known to spin a yarn or two.

HA!

[MynameisBlarney]

87. Honestly...I love all y'all

for helping me laugh when I REALLY needed it.

This was fucking awesome.

Thank you all SO very very much.

[2ndAmendmentRights]

88. Didn't some Tea Partier call him a "Terrier"

???

[pipi_k]

89. Well it looks like

the end of the road.

This thread has gotten too edgy and probably cannot be selvaged...

[MynameisBlarney]

90. I think you're right.

Unfortunately.
No matter how much we shuttle back and forth, it appears that all the loose ends have been tied up.

Seriously though. This was very fun, thanks!

[pipi_k]

94. Lots of fun...

I agree.

I even bookmarked it for future reading.




PS...I hope wool all meet up again like this sometime soon.

[MynameisBlarney]

95. Indeed

Might be awhile, my pun reserves are depleted after all this work, lol.

[pinboy3niner]

96. Oh, darn!

Don't be a chintz. You'll be loden up on moire reserves in no time. Soon you'll be bobbin and weavin' again, embroidering your posts out of whole cloth. I felt you had it in you all along.

As someone once said, "Don't re-pleat, re-load!"
http://www.burdastyle.com/terms

[MynameisBlarney]

97. lol

perhaps you're right, my elasticity might keep me from being buttonholed.

[pinboy3niner]

91. Looks like we're facing the end

Awl be heartbroken. Our batting average has been pretty good, though some buckled early (of course, I may be biased). But, baste on past experience, I gather we may yet have a few more contributions. And if not--well, just placket!!! We'll get over it, I'm shirr.

[MynameisBlarney]

92. Here...

Just take all my ennernets. You earned it.

[pinboy3niner]

93. It takes a village idiot. Oh, wait... :)

Nice team effort by all. Thanks for the thread.

[Grantuspeace]

98. He can Bounce back and turn the TIDE and GAIN a great victory in WASHington. It will be a new ERA.

Unless he gets clotheslined.

Sorry, kinda lame, but I just had to try it on for size.

[pinboy3niner]

100. Way to expand our horizons

From fabrics to sewing terms to laundry. It duz hit the spot!

[MynameisBlarney]

103. But...

[pinboy3niner]

104. ¡Pobrecito!

Time to relax, lighten up, and take a softener approach.

We're using memes now? Rut-roh...

[MynameisBlarney]

107. It hath commenced.

[pinboy3niner]

108. The reviews are beginning to come in...

[MynameisBlarney]

109. I thought everyone loved Joseph Ducreaux...

[pinboy3niner]

110. That was just one opinion. There are others...

[MynameisBlarney]

111. NOOOOOO!!!!

[pinboy3niner]

112. He may get agitator

This can get kinda rough and tumble. Still, he's smart enough not to fall into their trap. Last thing he wants is to engage in a vicious cycle. He will meet the enemy and give them no quarters.

[littlemissmartypants]

101. It is a crewel thing to see the end of such

great a yarn as this. I'll check back after I watch Gingham Style one more time and bet there will be another seer sucker or poor foulé that has visited here and fallen victim to this viscous thread's appeal. Lamé as it may seem, it actually percales in comparison to others. Sateen here reading it again, still laughing. I'll be back and in stitches again.

[pinboy3niner]

102. Don't brocade that joint, my friend

For such an excellent post, I suspect you must have pulled a Lance Darnstrong


"Gingham Style," lol!

[Grantuspeace]

105. I'm sorry, I may have altered the thread. I should have tailored a better response.

[pinboy3niner]

106. Remember, "Measure twice, cut once"

It's sew true, and not just for carpentry.

[kurtzapril4]

113. I weft this thread long ago

When the crewelty caused me to have a serge of disgust. There is no way to selvedge the discussion at this point.

[MynameisBlarney]

114. I dunno...

Just when I think this thread has frayed past the point of no return...it proves me wrong, it's like it's held together by some sort of double stitching, to keep it from coming apart at the seams.

[littlemissmartypants]

115. Well

rags or riches it makes no difference. I will fondly remnant the good times and that timely phrase... a stitch in line saves the rhyme... or something like that... did someone just clothes the lid and why are my glasses bubbly (like my personality) ???

[AnneD]

116. Don't waste your time...

casting purls before swine, or twine.

If knitting can be considered cloth....we have a whole knew ball of yarn to work with.

This might end up as the thread that never ends.
