The person below me

[Elorrum]

no, but I look for things that make a bit of sense of it. Current favorite is from Ken Burn's Jazz, describing the difference between New Orleans spiritual music and the blues, the blues based in more earthly reality. Spiritual: "Oh God, let me go." the blues: "Mister, won't you let me be?" I don't know, it sort of caught my mind in a new way.
tpbm doesn't search for meaning, but delights in glimpses out of the corner of their eye.

[theCryptofishist]

Okay, to fuse the divergent strains...
I have nothing more to say, I'm a bloody open book
&
I do look for meaning. Sometimes...

tpbm has a low taste for 101 Strings.

[ranger magnum]

Is that like a low spark for high heeled boys?

Tpbm knows what the above lineis from

[FIGJAM]

Traffic, Last Exit!

TPBM has been butted by a goat.

[theCryptofishist]

No, but I was drowned in a butt of malmsy.
TPBM has a better idea of what "malmsy" is, beyond, "some sort of spirit, duh."

[gaminwench]

Malmsey is a sweet white wine.

TPBM hasn't ridden a horse.

[MikeGyver]

I have, actually until last week I was teaching people to ride horses. Been riding since I was big enough to bounce when I fell off.

TPBM has an irrational fear

[Princess Peach]

i do. i have an irrational fear that if you don't flush a squished spider down the toilet, it will come back to life.

TPBM is wearing pink underwear

[theCryptofishist]

Helen Gahagan Douglas, that's mean.
tpbm knows what that makes the person above me...

[theCryptofishist]

Yeah, I have a good idea.
tpbm has missed tonight's spam bots...

[FossaFerox]

I almost thought it was a clever play on words rather than spam. Whoops!

TPBM appreciates the double entendre and would like to have someone below them right now.

[goathead]

they would just get muddy

TPBM has never had a job where they didn't speak a would for a 12 hour shift.

[AntiM]

Actually, if I had duty on a weekend, and there was no gear down, I could go hours without talking to anyone if I stayed out of tech control and futzed around in the ET shop by myself.

tpbm dreads the graveyard shift

[fernley1]

Yes, I dont like the grave shift, especially when I was stationed in Fairbanks Alaska in the winter.


TPBM would like to visit Alaska.

[FossaFerox]

Yes, I dont like the grave shift, especially when I was stationed in Fairbanks Alaska in the winter.


TPBM would like to visit Alaska.

Absolutely. I love the cold, I'm a bit of an introvert, and I love nature.

TPBM prefers being too cold to being too hot.

[Box Burner]

I prefer to be a little on the warm side. But the cold does have it's advantages. After all, if you are to cold you can always add another layer of clothing. But if you are too hot you can only take off so many clothes until there are none left... to ... remove....

Wait a minute... I think I really like being too hot... yeah. We should all be too hot. Yayyyy for the summertime
*runs around shedding clothes.*




TPBM grew up in a place where it was OK to go skinny-dipping with kids of both sexes.

[OregonRed]

Yeah. That place, that time. It was all innocent fun.

TPBM has found that thing they were looking for all day.

[ranger magnum]

No i havent. Ive been looking for a bottle of Tite-Bond wood glue that I swore I saw this morning. For the life of me I cant remember where I saw it last..

Tpbm prefers salt instead of sugar

[Box Burner]

True. I prefer salty snacks to sweet ones. that being said, I do not generally cook with salt. I think it is something that should be added (sparingly) at the table. Garlic and other seasonings provide better flavor.

TPBM cooks from scratch.

[ranger magnum]

I do. Noting tastes better. This year I want to make my own filled pastas.

Tpbm had a good day!

[theCryptofishist]

It was pretty good. Back to work tomorrow...
tpbm loves children's books.

[burner von braun]

Yes, especially the ones that contain a lot of fiber

TPBM is trying to guess which words will appear on Geospyder's cool new Burning Man tattoo

[Eric]

words?


tpbm doesn't think words belong on tattoos

[theCryptofishist]

I think inappropriate foreign words mistranslated belong on lots of people...
tpbm hates diphthongs...

[gaminwench]

actually, I find them both a blessing and a curse ...

TPBM loves weddings ...

[lucky420]

Meh

Tpbm wonders if the tv weathermen actually cum in their pants when a big storm rolls through even though it's winter and we all expect snow...

[BBadger]

Yeah, I've definitely given it some thought. Those weathermen/women seem to fall into three types: 1) those that have a raging hard-on for those storms that dump shitloads of snow everywhere, 2) those that sympathize with the people who don't like the storms and the "bad" weather, and 3) the ones who really don't give a damn about the weather (usually the weekend guys).

TPBM gets hot and bothered by the smell of ozone emanating from printers and photocopiers.

[GreyCoyote]

You have NO idea.

The person below me has photocopied their private parts.

[Eric]

Nope.


tpbm wonders why people photocopy their private parts, since they never come out looking good that way.

[theCryptofishist]

Drunk or lack of sleep, I figure. Not that I spend time thinking about it.
TPBM never gets that drunk...
