I haven't read the Da Vinci Code. What's the connection?
Ogged has more class than to re-read or read it.
Dude, I don't know greek and I think I know what that means. Not obscure enough.
Tsk, tsk, have you all no appreciation of the classical splendour that is Unfogged? Did you miss the hit? Does "Sophia" mean nothing to you but Ms. Loren?
[I tried to post a picture, but the "spam blacklist" "denied" me...]
Ms. Loren? Dating yourself, DE. Which makes me wonder about that nooner.
The point of the nooner is that she isn't dating herself. Not like some people.
But that's just it: given that she dates herself, I now doubt the nooner.
Actually, I reckon when you're dating yourself nooners are pretty easy to come by.
I haven't dated myself recently; my according to my PDA, I'm not free until June 4th. Myself and I have a luxurious evening planned, complete with a balloon ride over Malibu and a threesome with Angelina Jolie. [Well, OK, maybe not the balloon ride.]
Re: Sophia Loren: When one googles "Sophia" and "sexy", that's pretty much all one gets. [Admittedly, there's Sophia Bush, but does anyone over age 15 watch "One Tree Hill"? And hasn't the very thought of Dubya boinking anything eradicated the titter quotient of the word "Bush"?]
Re: Nooners: You poor envious boys. Jealousy is never attractive. You just can't stand knowing that even Ben's mom is getting more than you are, and not writing dirty limericks to celebrate. You can't bear the thought that there are people writhing in carnal pleasure at a time when you're forced to occupy yourselves with considering the merits of extra cheese on your Whoppers. Envy drips from your souls like salsa from a shattered taco shell...
DE, it's funny when it contains a hint of truth, not when it's all true. (And this after I let "tsk, tsk" slide. Who the hell "tsks" anymore?)
I think young folks think "Sophia Coppolla" before they think "Sophia Loren." I could be wrong.
I think Sophia Loren.
You just can't stand knowing that even Ben's mom is getting more than you are, and not writing dirty limericks to celebrate.
TMI, ma.
What the fuck happened that w-lfs-n is now the funniest commenter?
I think "Sofia, Bulgaria." But then I'm residing in the weird limbo world between young and old.
And I don't see you moving anytime soon.
I have a friend who says that Sofia is a beautiful city. But it's not pronounced the way the given name is.
Color me Sophia Loren. Not unexpected, as I've previously mentioned that I think she and La Jolie are the two most gorgeous women in film EVAR.
Clearly, you're not responding appropriately to the New Friendliness. Maybe it takes time to readjust.
(And this after I let "tsk, tsk" slide. Who the hell "tsks" anymore?)
I do. I'm bringing it back into fashion, along with "the cat's pyjamas", "twenty-three-skiddoo" and "groovy". Not to mention "zounds".
Peachy-keen! And, I might add, spiffy.
Neato! The bee's knees! Right on! [searching for pom-poms and a short skirt...]
Thurber, of course, is the ant's ankles and the caterpillar's boots.
This comment thread is all that and a bag of chips.
(Over 15 and yet knows very well who Sophia Bush is.)
Here is my opinion.
The following are appropriate spellings: Sofia, Sophie.
The following are inappropriate spellings: Sophia, Sofie.
This comment thread is all that and a bag of chips.
I think this has run its course, though. Time to head back to the flippity floppity floop.
That is some miserable oarthaughgrefie.
Here is my opinion.
You're welcome to an opinion, but unless you intend to change your name, you don't get to choose the spelling.
Otherwise, we're all gonna start spelling your name as "Ghoti".
but unless you intend to change your name, you don't get to choose the spelling.
Why do you interpret my opining as being addressed to the named, and not the givers of names? Is it because you're afraid of the truth?
DE, here's what we say when young Ben gets above his station.
(In fact has slight girl-crush on Sophia Bush.)
And meant to tell Ogged - I had "Persian cucumber" for lunch.
carp. "Ideas above his station."
ac, I hope the quotation marks are redundant.
Yes, what is the deal with those quote marks, ac? You're not usually prone to such oversharing.
And 41 is what we say.
No, 41 is when he's right, 38 is when he's wrong.
Fair enough. Any excuse to maintain that I'm hung like a horse (though in context the implication is that one is not hung like a horse).
Guess we can ask ac. (Actually my guess is that she literally had Persian cucumber for lunch.)
It was Persian cucumber salad--actual cucumbers--the quotation marks were because I wasn't sure what was so Persian about the cucumber.
Am I the only who's been puzzled by the relation between the title of this post and its content? I'd been waiting for something in comments to help me figure it out without admitting that I didn't know, but I've now lost patience.
I was just playing the rube, w/d: Greek search excitedly identified as Spanish.
ac, the persian cucumber, which I could have sworn was bigger.
The flesh makes especially refreshing relishes and chutneys.
What Ben hasn't mentioned is that he intends to name all of his children "Ben", much in the manner of George Foreman. Except not "George". Spelling variants may include: Bben, Benn, Bhen, Pben, Cholmondeleben and Bennyandthejets.
All of his sons will want to marry women named Jennifer, Gennifer, Gweniffer, Genevre or Sopfhia [there's one iconoclast in every family..]
Genevre
No longer available in the US, I'm afraid.
Any son of mine who marries a woman named "Gennifer" (or a man named "Gennifer") is out of the family!
Any son of mine who marries a woman named "Gennifer" (or a man named "Gennifer") is out of the family!
Even if s/he promises to change the spelling to Sofia?
re: 40. Did you mean to use a type of fish as an exclamation? I don't remember seeing that on my first read through, maybe this is another instance of ogged editing to create new errors.
I haven't actually ever done that. (And wouldn't, for the record.)
It was there. It was almost certainly purposeful.
I'm compelled to point out that DE mentioned "Genevre," but w-lfs-n's link is about "Genever."
And whom are you informing with that pointing-out, sir?
The man is acting under compulsion -- is it really fair to quiz him about his motivations? (I picture DE, whip in hand, saying "Point it out! Point it out, I say!")
We need to stop cross-posting like this. Babe.
Sure do.
But the cross-posting is all that's keeping me from working, and given who my clients are, you'd be doing society a service by encouraging me to comment more (as if it were humanly possible).
But eventually you do have to get the work done, and I really do feel bad that you have to work so late.
