The person below me

[Sic Pup]

All I know about lead is either do it, follow or get out of the way (or some shit like that).

TPBM always wondered why lead and read can both be pronounced in two distinct ways while bead is just bead.

[theCryptofishist]

Naw, when I wonder about bead it's actually wondering about the Venerable Bede.
TPBM has seen that name before, and can say something pertinent thereof.

[BoyScoutGirl]

He was a good story teller, or so I hear.

TPBM thinks Monkwearmouth is a funny name for a hometown, even for one with the moniker "Venerable Bede."

[theCryptofishist]

Yeah, I have to say the whole idea of wearing a mouth is a little bit "other"...
TPBM think monks should wear purple cassocks.

[Eric]

I think monks should wear undyed homespun - either cotton or wool.



tpbm is utterly not ready to go on vacation in 25ish days.

[knowmad]

start early, end late.
but yeah, trying to motivate to go back to "Civilization" is killing me. Never ever land needs a new princess, maybe I'll just take over and stay....

TPBM finds ____________ empowering.

[Sic Pup]

sacrifice


TPBM discovered something unexpected about themselves at a ripe age.

[knowmad]

yeah. but the pills help.

TPBM reflects on their personal development with wonderment and awe.

[Sic Pup]

Indeed, it's funny how one ages they go from knowing everything to the realization that they know very little. I now find that if I put myself out there and take some chances I am always enriched by the experience (even though it may not seem so at the time).

TPBM is tired of all this introspective stuff and just wants to have some fun.

[Eric]

Always. I suck at being introspective.


tpbm has never seen a silent film in a movie theater, with organ or orchestra accompaniment.

[Savannah]

I missed out on seeing Phantom of the Opera with pipe organ accompaniment, and still regret it. Even more stupidly, I have never been to a movie Sing-a-Long, which is even more my style.

The person below me really enjoyed the last movie they saw in a theatre, and will tell me what it was.

[Box Burner]

yes I did. It was Iron Man. Sadly I have not been to a theater since. My new hearing aids distort. It is okay (sort of) for conversations but really sucks for music or theater. So I do not go.

TPBM does not go to the movies. He/she just rents them or checks them out at the library.

[theCryptofishist]

Not even that.
TPBM sorts his/her burningman canned food by size and color.

[Elorrum]

nope. cans is cans, but, writing the contents in sharpie on top of the can helps find stuff in a box 'o" cans that are all the same height.
tpbm just remembered to buy more mandarin oranges.

[Eric]

Now. Don't like canned fruit (comes from living in CA, the land of the farmers market, and the farms)



tpbm still likes canned pineapple rings

[Box Burner]

Yes I do! Chilled with a large heap of cottage cheese on top.


TPBM likes canned peaches, but not fresh ones.

[shroom]

I like both


TPBM is ready to send their kids back to school.

[knowmad]

or drop them off in the pool.

PBM name your favorite end o' the world scenario.

[delle]

oops wrong thread.

Faux pas, but not exactly the end of the world.

Please do carry on....


Edited to remove EVERYTHING!!!

[theCryptofishist]

I suppose Waterworld is the most in character.
TPBM wants a nuclear powered led flashlight.

[Eric]

I want a hand-cranked one that actually holds a charge. All the ones I've tried start losing power in minutes.



tpbm hasn't needed to buy anything other than food for this years Burn

[Sic Pup]

Food?!!????? Aw fuck.... gotta run.

TPBM lives to eat.

[knowmad]

my stage name is Connie Lingus....
Person Below me if you had a beef with an Admin would you;
A)make your first post a long Rant?
B)write a msg to the Admin.
C)Fire up the blamethrower and torch the whole site?

[theCryptofishist]

D) Slink out of the board for a week hoping it would blow over.

TPBM believes in open communication.

[msj2u]

True. Confrontation is not something I accept in My life. Talk to the person you have an issue with in private, drama is exhausting.


TPBM can smell the playa through the vents in their car.

MSJ

[Eric]

that would be odd, since I haven't had a car since '91.


tpbm wants to live somewhere they don't need a car

[maryanimal]

I would keep my car! I love small town life.

tpbm found something strange in their pocket.

[theCryptofishist]

Who am I, Bilbo Baggins?
TPBM has only just realized that Bilbo is Jewish.

[theCryptofishist]

The person above me might be an annoying spammer.
tpbm worries if the term "amazeballs" will spread to other words with "ing" endings, a prospect s/he is findballs peterbbals.

[Eric]

Never worried about it at all.


tpbm worries about things they can't change
