2012 Ticket Scorekeeping Thread

[catinthefunnyhat]

people seem to be repeating the words "grilled cheese" as though they were magic.

If I have learnt anything, there is already a magic word and its "bacon".

This is the difference between you and them. You've learned things. They only know that someone promised grilled cheese and got a ticket.

I believe someone is trying on new hosiery.

Is that a euphemism for learning to talk Canadian?









No, wait... that would be hosery. Silly me.

And practicing your Indiana accent? That would be trying on Hoosiery.

That site actually verges on being SPAM. His handle is even a link back to his website!

[theCryptofishist]

What do you know. I was so put off by the unicorns and disco balls that I just couldn't be bothered to looking up his website.

At least is isn't a link...

[catinthefunnyhat]

I just saw that post, and the one just after (or before?) it, and I had to come rushing over here.

I love that he lives every day in the light of the burn but has never been before!

And in the neighbouring thread, there's someone looking for their star brothers and star sisters! So we've got sun sisters, celestial brothers, and star siblings. This is a stellar year, indeed.

Ya, but that's only because he doesn't know how to turn the BBCode on.

Interview on international radio show. That's something new. http://eplaya.burningman.org/viewtopic. ... 92&t=55876

Wow - just Wow!

I haven't had much time to watch this thread lately - but I wish I had some of whatever these folks were on when they posted.

Then again, if it made me sound like that maybe it wouldn't be a great idea (unless I was away from the internet for the duration).

Or... take some and then come and entertain us with some starry-eyed nonsense! Da Bar is always open; it has comfy furniture, coffee, and anything else you need to take the edge off. You're among friends here; we'll be gentle... mostly

That should be interplanetary. And if they are coming from Arcturus, then we really have let the cat out of the bag...

[catinthefunnyhat]

Thanks to Dougly for highlighting this sentence...

thats website reaches over 85 countrys

For those keeping score, I've removed the mauiburnerzzz posts (and replies to it) from the 'free to the right girl' thread. Figured I'd let board regulars know here rather than bumping the thread.

[Mojojita]

Thank you Trilo, I really had to keep my fingers away from the keyboard on that one.

[theCryptofishist]

If I were giving away a ticket, I would immediately disqualify someone who doesn't know not to put "manifest" and "destiny" in the same sentance. Although, he or she might have an edge over the person who put "final" and "solution" in one...

I love that whenever I see something in that forum that makes me feel snarky, I can run down here and find that Fishy has put my thoughts to words for me.
Fifty-four forty or fight!

Now, if only we were spiritually prepared,... well,... we'd be better than we are.

And, I daresay, way less fun.

[theCryptofishist]

But we wouldn't need to be fun. We'd be above it all. Like Simon's jetpack...

[catinthefunnyhat]

In: Spiritual Preparation
Out: Financial Preparation

I'll have to think about that for awhile.

Well then you need to stop running down here.

In: Spiritual Preparation

in: worrying about what you are going to eat today and tomorrow.

out: already having enough food stockpiled and sorted and color coded to last 4 weeks on the playa...

[BBadger]

In that line of thought:

IN: whining you need cheap tickets because your son and his wife can "barely afford to eat."

OUT: (as above)

[Simon of the Playa]

In : beg, Borrow or Steal if you have to.

Out : bitching about the man holding you down, man, so like, i wanna go, but like, i cant seem to get past the having to actually apply myself and work for it, so instead im gonna say the festival has sold out man, and is totally corporate man, and is not worthy of my presence unless i score a ticket between now and gate opening, man...

[theCryptofishist]

People, the Universe is a trickster. It tells you all sorts of things because it thinks jerking your chain is funny.

[catinthefunnyhat]

There is a very high score on this one...
OF course, reading through it with the scoresheet open, it's clear she used it as crib notes. Well played, lady!

When did that transition occur?

[theCryptofishist]

Yikes! Well, I don't want a song. Maybe I do, if it were like Sir Robin's minstrals, actually...
