• Roobert?
• Herrings break wind to communicate and keep the school together. ...they claim.
• Well I know I do.
• I learned that I'm not as bad as I think everybody suspects. And that I probably have paranoid tendencies.
• Heh! I killed the thread.
• Nah, not your fault Skrik, it's a slow mover. Almost nonexistent outrage factor.
• 63. Just one in a hundred workers goes to the pub for their lunch, according to a study. The same proportion spend lunch having sex. That's it, even though I'm not in the UK, I'm getting a pint for lunch, and having sex with someone on the bar.
• Phrase-turner extraordinaire Clive James ... also says he's particularly proud of his description of the Conan the Barbarian-era Arnold Schwarzenegger as "a brown condom full of walnuts". As would I be, if I'd thought of it.
• And why did they never tell me this in intro to CS: 47. A "jiffy" is 10 milliseconds in computer science terms.
• 48. Margaret Roberts (later Thatcher) helped invent the chemical process that produces Mr Whippy ice cream. If it's any help, I'm outraged by this.
• Sweet mother of god, I hate Scooby Doo.
• That's Scoobert or Mr. Doo to you, sir!
• Scoobert. I swear to God I'll never look at him the same way again. Scoobert.
• Scoobert J. Doo, Esq.
• I already knew velma last name, but that's because I have the hots for her.
• 's
• Great link! I liked the pictures too.
• 98. Lord Baden Powell wanted a section on the dangers of "self abuse" in his Scouting for Boys. His original manuscript read: "A very large number of the lunatics in our asylums have made themselves ill by indulging in this vice although at one time they were sensible cheery boys like you." I was never particularly sensible or cheery as a child, and I believe a strict program of frequent masturbation turned me into the productive, happy person I am today.
• The theological implications are staggering. Oh, come on, you knew I'd say that. (-;
• thats it! I will change my life long plan to remain childless. I must have a child so I can name it: Scoobert!
• Ten people die on the UK's roads every day. Nobody knew this last year??
• Although the article claims that we know the names of the cast, in fact the linked article (from the list) only mentions Scoobert. Velma I knew, although I don't know why (I'm a Daphne man). Although, I suppose, this is just the sort of thing Google is best at.
• Great link! I liked the pictures too. Call me a stickler, but aren't the pictures supposed to be of "10 things"? And doesn't the cute widdle picture of the baby's toes only show NINE toes? There's obviously shenanigans going on in the selection committee. I demand an investigation. Plus, WHERE IS HER OTHER PIGGEE?
• Evidently, it went wee wee wee all the way home.
• Can't stand Scoobert and the gang of "meddling kids", but I never tire of imagining Casey Kasem in his "big break", voicing Norville Rogers.
