The person below me

[TomServo]

No, I get offended by Carl's Jr. Food

TPBM Thinks putting speaker boxes in the trunk is downright retarded.

[maryanimal]

Oh yeah. Most times peoples stereo systems are worth more than their cars. Noise inducing bastards...

tpbm wants to try a new hairstyle.

[theCryptofishist]

No.
TPBM had an unusual pet as a child.

[The CO]

I thought cavia porcellus was a common pet.

TPBM built stuff today.

[TomServo]

Built a speaker box to hold 2 x 15 inch speakers...all of which had to fit in the trunk of a new Dodge Charger..Fits like a glove! Still think it's retarded..

TPBM likes ranch sauce instead of red sauce on their pizza.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Ew, no.

TPBM has lived on a ranch.

[Elorrum]

summer camp, that's a whole lot different. wildness, they checked our hands at meals to make sure we had washed. that was it for supervision as I recall.

tpbm must fall asleep soon, or tomorrow will be difficult.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Sigh... it's the eternal bedtime struggle between catinthesensiblehat and catinthefoolishhat.

TPBM can't wait to get to bed.

[AntiM]

No, just got up. Although I'm substituted long afternoon naps in lieu of narcotic painkillers.

TPBM thinks naps are a guilty secret, but everyone knows they indulge in them.

[Foxfur]

Every day at 11 & 3!

TPBM wants to go to the park and feed the pigeons.

[catinthefunnyhat]

I'm not so fond of pigeons. I kind of feel sorry for them, sometimes, but I'm not inclined to feed them. That just makes more pigeons.
And you know what they say: Mo' pigeons, mo' problems.

TPBM speaks a Pidgin language.

[theCryptofishist]

I wish. Creoles are also acceptably cool.
TPBM speaks an OSV language.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Nope. Just boring old SVO English. The language I research is VSO/VOS and ergative, which is pretty cool.

TPBM sometimes wishes English had a more robust Case system.

[theCryptofishist]

Declentions would be nice.
TPbM speaks in tongues.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Nope, never did, even when I was part of the scene. I wanted to, mind you.
I think my partner speaks in tongues in his sleep. Or perhaps just babbly nonsense.

TPBM likes to annoy people by answering their questions with rhymes.

[theCryptofishist]

No. in addition to every thing else, I don't have the time.
Every thing else includes not being very good with rhymes.

TPBM is better at alliteration.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Alliteration is easier to do than rhyming, but possibly harder to do well. I stink at it.
Whenever anyone mentions alliteration, I think of Poe: the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain....

The proximal poster has a penchant for puns.

[Foxfur]

WTF? What am I supposed to do for a response?

TPBM gave TPAM a partial.

[theCryptofishist]

I don't know who does cat's teeth, but it aint me.
TPBM thinks "it aint me " works so much better than "it wasn't I".

[BoyScoutGirl]

Only if Mr. Zimmerman's singing it, in which case I will swoon:

The person below me knows there's only one true Bob, and it's not Marley.

[theCryptofishist]

Of course not, it's our own Bob, Sofa Extroidinaire.
TPBM wishes I wasn't quite that creative with my spelling.

[Eric]

It worked for Shakespeare.


tpbm is plotting plotting plotting...

[Straightveg]

Yep! Plotting to figure out the best way to appease the ticket god/dess(es) and convince my boss to give me a few extra days of vacation so I can recover after the burn.
TPBM already has all their ticket, travel and vacation issues figured out.

[theCryptofishist]

I've got the ticket, and in general I know my vacation plans (my work is supportive--two co-workers will be on playa as well), and my travel plans are pretty simple. However, I don't know what I'm going for a tent...

TPBM has a wonderful suggestion for for me on that score...

[catinthefunnyhat]

This is a cryptofishtent if I ever saw one.


TPBM thinks I should have gone for the Soviet angle rather than the Fishy one.

[theCryptofishist]

I'm hoping you can unite them in something that'll cost me less than $500 and will pack down quite small indeed.
TPBM thinks I'm delusional...

[catinthefunnyhat]

You could do this one for under $500; you'd just need to enslave some serfs give work experience to some eager interns. The moat would probably have to be made of blue tarp. Maybe it could be your evap pond?


It's the tent Tsar Nicholas met with Napoleon in, apparently.

In 1806, Napoleon and Tsar Alexander I met in delicate negotiations to decide, at least briefly, the fate of eastern Europe, Turkey, India, and Scandinavia. Protocol required that they convene in suitable spendor, but at the palace of neither.

The chosen halfway point was Tilsit, at the far western tip of Russia and the northeastern tip of Napoleonic Europe, where the Neman River separated their two armies. At mid-river, on a barge, a magnificent tent was erected, and there the first meeting took place.

In a surprisingly agreeable three hours, Napoleon concluded a series of understandings and remarked that if Alexander were a woman, he would take her as his mistress. When he decided instead to marry Alexander’s 15-year-old sister, the Franco-Russian treaty began to crumble, and the stage was set for 1812, Tchaikovsky, Tolstoy, and great numbers of lesser men settling the same issues from lesser tents.

Delusional? You're no more delusional than I am, Fishy. Which is to say, very.

TPBM thinks a moat around his/her tent would be pretty cool.

[Savannah]

I would prefer a rampart and parapet.

The person below me has not quite given up on living in a castle.

[ygmir]

very true......I'm trying to build my own *(very small) version

TPBM knows to whence I speak

[catinthefunnyhat]

To the mead-hall!

TPBM keeps bees and is thinking of making mead from their honey.
