Thread: Words and Phrases No Longer Allowed in This Thread

Guys, I spend the day trying to catch fog, but I mist it. Now I have low self esteam.

Ok, it's high time we got this thread back off topic.

Time for the usual chaos and mayhem. Time to ban something.

Are holidays banned in this thread? Are we allowed to acknowledge three-day weekends? If so, why? If not, why not?

Please submit your essays using 5,000 words or less. The winner will be chosen based on the least amount of merit--as usual.

The judges' decisions are final. Maybe.

In Soviet Russia, 3-day weekend acknowledges you.

Wow, an essay consisting of only eight words (well, ok, seven words and one number). The judges like pithiness.

If you win, we will bundle you up and spirit you off-planet in the middle of the night so you can claim your prize.

Thank you for your contest entry!

Dear sixbig, this is indeed a very indepth question you are instigating, whether or not weekends have three days and has this question been asked before?

Absolutely.

It has been pondered upon since the days of the amoebas as we were swimming in an endless sea of ocean across and beyond. They say it is written I say, but I also say if it is written then why don’t you show me instead of telling me. Such it was said and done and the question evolved, if we liked it or not, regardless if anyone answered or listened. But now watch closely because it is written in front of your very nose and inside your brain it will be as it was said, not that it will sound as good as the original, or maybe it will because I don’t talk while I write.

Nonsense is science and science is art. Art is nonsense and hence the circle is closed in eternium etcetera. Why latin words you ask yourself? Because it adds weight. Not extra but just enough.

With such we achieve balance and the balance is three. One day to feast, one day to drink and the third day to sober up. This is the nature of law. Pardon, the law of nature. That was French and it is very light. In it’s unnatural state of two day weekends the delicate delicatessen becomes unstable. But we evolved and learned to cope with the obstacles bestowed upon us. We invented coffee and use the Monday for sobering up at work.

With such ingenuity the equilibrium was preserved and the careful observer might have noticed a ton of extra weight slowly creeping in here. Creeping in but not creeping out. If you cannot withstand the pressure we have to abandon. I triple x dare to defy gravitas in veritas, then again such is futile – as been proven in the triple day weekend theory, which as such is proven and thus no theory anymore but it is.

Yet my tunnel of thought has been pushed out by a train. Think I need a couple of ounces maybe … veni vidi vici.

At the time I started this sentence I would have needed another threehundred words in order to tally up to exactly plus minus zero percent sixhundredsixtysix words. That was up to the point when I added the cookies, just in case someone did count. It is my sole deepest regrets that I have failed to achieve this. Then again I never finish anyth

Rou, the judges have decided that your essay has exceeded the 5,000 word limit in spirit if not in letter. However, fear not. All is not lost.

Due to the profundity of this phrase, the judges will ignore the fact that you have made their eyeballs explode and will grant you special dispensation to not be disqualified from contention in spite of your ubiquitous loquaciousness.

However, be warned that sir-r is presenting stiff competition here in that he gave the judges a much lesser headache. And, who knows who else will enter the contest. We have not yet established a time limit for submissions.

We do ask, though, that you cease your practice of chaining yourself to the bedpost while sleeping (or at least leave the key handy, or a chisel nearby), or else it may prove impossible to reward you properly in case you are the contest winner.

Thank you for your attention to these important matters.

My cincinnati apologies, I trusted the jury would consist of trained professionals able to stomach the matter. This was not intended for virgin eyes. I have enclosed extra cookies in this little envelope I am unsuspiciouslyish handing over to you right this very instance.
If you excuse me, I have a thank you letter to prepare, expressing my extreme surprise and so on and so forth.

On a totally unrelated note, my warden is always within earshot.

You're so trusting, Rou. No wonder Hex loves you.

AHA! I knew someone was listening. Which is why my other personalities and me converse in nothing but Pig Latin.

Omprendcay? Oolishfay Ouvenray!

Argh! She's cracked our code! Get some hot water! Get some iodine!

Oh, wait. That's for dog bites.

What do we do for codebreakers? I've never been very good in a crisis.

::awaiting further instructions::

Sounds like we need a crisis strike team. I am willing to sing if necessary.

Wouldn't your singing just create a bigger crisis?

Members of the strike team and friendlies get preemptive ear plugs.

Huh? What??

What? I can't hear you! It's too dark in here.

*pulls earplugs out*

Oh, I think I forgot to mention, the official method if you want to communicate is to kick the recipient in the shin.

*puts earplugs back in*

The strike team is on strike.

The irony is now lost.

OUCH! Um, nice of you to think of me so officially, Rou.

Wow! I was trying to think of a name for my new rock band, and inspiration has just struck. It will be known as "Irony of the Lost." We're sure to hit the big time! Wanna be our manager?

Oh, great! Hex lost something again.

First his humour, then his sense of, and now finally the irony.

Maybe. Maybe not. I admit to nothing that wasn't caught on tape.

I use tape in the crafting hall to catch the flies circling over the gravy. So... isn't it true that you have just admitted to flies caught on tape?

Alas for sir-r. I think you've discovered the fly in the ointment.
