Kmjm | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 09:46 pm     Maris, real life intervened or I would have posted sooner. I don't care if any of you Americans call out Canadians for saying 'eh'. (We do!) However, I don't think it is anywhere NEAR as irritating as you Americans saying 'huh'!!! I'm not opposed to broad general insults, it's the personal ones that I don't like! |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 09:48 pm     Huh???? what do you mean Km? |
Kmjm | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 09:51 pm     Maris, what's your question about, eh? |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 09:51 pm     i'm laughing too hard to post . . |
Draheid | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 09:52 pm     Huh? Awright, ya'll shudnt' be makin' fun of awr way of tawkin cuz it's who we is, yaknow! By the way D'jeet yet? |
Sunriverose | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 09:55 pm     Oh, do they really, Hippyt? I wonder exactly what part of the contract tells them that nosy busybodies with nothing better to do will spend untold hours digging through the personal lives of gameshow contestants. I think it is a disgrace that a person is subjected to public redicule and an invasion of every facet of their lives because they choose to become a contestant on a gameshow. Since I really don't want to be off topic and get moderated, I will leave it at that. But I do think that it would be a great twist to the show if the next group of contestants were given false identities and be judged only on the way they play the game. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:02 pm     Legally, NOT MORALLY, speaking, Sunriverose, a person who contests on this type of gameshow willingly places themselves into the life of a public figure, which has many, many, many fewer protections against libel and slander than a person who has maintained a private profile. Even moreso, exposing the truth of a public figure is a protected and even honored legal entitlement. The contestants know this - this is not new. Nonetheless, I wish the press were kinder - we might get a better pool of contestants. Those with sufficient brains (coughcoughnotroddy) know better. |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:04 pm     thank goodness for that goddess law or I would have been in real trouble for saying that Lisa was a transexual stripper with leprosy. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:07 pm     Maris - what you MEANT to say was "IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, TO WHICH I'M ENTITLED . . . ETC." (just a suggestion - call me when the papers are filed) |
Snee | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:07 pm     an american i know thinks i sound like a leprechaun. what's that about? i AM canadian! p.s. we have a beer commercial that addresses many of the perceptions other nationals have about canadians. it ends to raucous applause: i AM canadian! now that's all over t-shirts and hats and what have you. hehe my favourite part of the commercial is 'the beaver is a noble animal!' p.p.s. goddess: 'Are your nuns still in uniform? We have Domincans, and all of a sudden they're wearing knee length habits or street clothes. I don't like it a bit. If someone's going to hit me with a yardstick, I want a headsup.' headsup! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! |
Snee | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:10 pm     goddess, was that cough-talk i heard? shame! (i don't allow my students to use that. hehe. oh, and they think they invented it! AHAHAHAHAH! silly little buttons!) |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:10 pm     Huh? Yeah what you said Goddess!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:13 pm     Snee, are you that f'd up Sister Mary Holy Water who tried to choke me at the age of six for taking my scratchy *ss scarf off in church like girls weren't supposed to do because we're inferior and must show obeisence? I hope they made that scarf into your socks and they've come between you and your orthopedic shoes ever since. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:15 pm     Do I sound bitter? PS PTL and pass the potatoes. And God Bless BB4. |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:18 pm     Goddess I have you topped. we had a nun, the science nun who knew nothing. Anyway she asks children to bring in their goldfish. This kid in my class Michael, brings in his pet goldfish. Sister takes the bowl with the gold fish and drops a liquid into the bowl so we can see the fish breathing. She killed the kids fish. Fish went belly up and as long as I live I will never forget his face when he realized sister killed his fish. They did send her off to that special home after a few interesting incidents but that is another story. |
Sunriverose | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:24 pm     See, and when both of you (Maris and Goddess) are on the next BB, and they reveal that you have had numerous arrests for killing goldfish and burning scarves in department stores...Who is gonna stand up for you and say that the nuns made you do it. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:25 pm     Nope, nope, nope - gotcha, Maris. Kindergarten, same 30 children I went to school with for 9 years, one I was put in charge of helping when we colored because he didn't seem to take directions well. Did what I could to help the kid, who was sweet, but he colored the pants of the marching trumpet player red instead of blue, which was instructed. Donchaknow the kid got the everlivingtarshit beat out of him for not following instructions. Turned out later he was colorblind. I've never forgotten it, nor have I ever heard of that nutjob nun who was transferred out after my kindergarten year. PS BB4's gonna be awesom, but without me. (Tell ya later about the 6'2" 7th grader who got a bloody nose from a 4'11 teacher, and what the phrase "pumping ethyl" meant to our priests back in the 70's). |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:27 pm     Sunriver, the priest who is hiding out from an APB will defend us. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:28 pm     Sunriverose, I will personally stand up and point the finger of blame at the 12-foot-brick wall surrounding our convent and say "they did it to me, and here's Maris they did it to her, too." |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:29 pm     Dang Goddess I think they transferred that nun to my school. Sounds like the same nun who smashed a girls face into the blackboard and broke her nose in second grade. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:31 pm     Laughing to hard to post . . . sorry for the little girl, but I bet she didn't do it again . . - whatever it was. |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:33 pm     LOl Goddess, neither did the nun, they locked her up after that one. |
Guiltyviewer | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:33 pm     Well I know I'D stand up for 'em!!! (they're irreplaceable here on the board...what WOULD we do without their wit?!*shudder to think of such absurdity!!*) |
Earthmother | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 11:29 pm     Humph..and they talk about Public School teachers...(franny just keeps mumbling and shaking her head.) |
Snee | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 11:31 pm     tears of laughter are streaming down my little snee face, mixed in with 'oh no! oh no!' so that's why there are cloisters, huh? (<--confused canadian) they're really holding cells for nasty nuns! and don't you wish scratchy-ass socks on ME, young lady! |
