Why would anyone jump a shark?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

:shrug:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

1. I know. They should riding the tiger .........

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. Well, I sure as heck agree, my dear Crazy!

I'd rather ride a tiger than jump a shark, any day!

Thank you for rescuing my silly copycat!


:rofl: :loveya: :hug:

2. They wouldn't.

Oh, sure. Some old surfer dude might try to sell you on some trumped up story about it. However, it never happened to anybody. Much less Fonzie. :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. I'm sure you're correct, my dear Floog!

It just has to be a trumped up story! And esp. where Fonzie is concerned!

:loveya: :hug:

3. Unless one is really, really, really horny.

But remember, "no" means "no." And "splash! snap! AAAIIIEEEE!!!" means the shark is NOT in the mood.

6. ................

:rofl: Good one, my dear Common Sense Party!

Welcome to the Lounge!

:hi:

[Common Sense Party]

11. Not in good taste, I know. But it's late. What can I say?

Thanks for the welcome.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. Indeed it is late, my dear Common Sense Party!

But I thought your answer, though a bit saucy/naughty, was still a good one!

It did make me laugh, after all!

I love to welcome relative "newbies" to the Lounge....

:hi:

[Common Sense Party]

20. 'Tis a fun, relaxed place, from what I see.

I get the impression that some people "take refuge" in the Lounge from the rather more, shall we say, "intense" threads in General Discussion. Is that fair to say?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. You are absolutely correct! In fact, SOME of us........

NEVER leave the Lounge.....and I am one of those...

Well, almost never....

The Lounge has my heart.....I love it here!

:hi:

7. To impress Leather Tuscadero, of course.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. Hi, my dear swag.....

Um, just who is Leather Tuscadero? Inquiring minds and all that.....

Please excuse my ignorance!

[Crazy Guggenheim]

9. She was Fonzi's girlfriend on "Happy Days". She was played by

Susie Quatro.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. Thank you, my dear Crazy.....

for tying this all together for me!

:hug:

[MrSlayer]

22. Pinkie was Fonzie's girlfriend.

Leather was her little sister.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

23. Oh. Ok..........

:blush:

[swag]

10. Leather Tuscadero was a character played by rocker Suzi Quatro on TV's

Happy Days, the very same series that featured in one legendarily awful episode Henry Winkler in the beloved character of Fonzie donning water skis and jumping over a shark.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. Thank you, my dear swag....

My education continues!

[swag]

15. Here is something you knew already:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_the_shark

[CaliforniaPeggy]

17. I'm not sure I actually knew it, my dear swag.......

I do believe I was familiar with the term, though.....

Thanks for the link!

14. Street cred.

It was the early '60s version of bustin' a cap in someone's ass.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. My dear primate1!

So it also means street credibility?

Well, I must say, my silly copycat thread is helping my education more than I ever thought it would!

:hi:

[ghostsofgiants]

19. Haha, well I was just joking.

Though jumping a shark on water skis IS pretty badass. Swag and CG have the real history of it covered.

:hi:
