borrowr
hi there I’m getting read of a borrowr with a hutch stand it all one peace nd you will need two people to pick it up if youare interested you can call marsha at ###-###-#### and she can tex pic of it to you ty jest call me or email me for a showing its loc in 2clock two place in [badly misspelled city].
What a peace of work is this borrowr!
How noble in it’s hutch stand,
How infinite in weight!
In form nd moving how many people will you need to pick it up? (Two)
And poor Marsha!
A woman of infinite jest!
So jest call her.
Thanks for the post, Ralph!
I saw a tex pic once. But then a big strong scary ginger ranger kicked my butt and I decided it jest wasn’t worth the trouble.
Neither a borrowr nor a hutch stand buy;
For thou wilt need two people to pick it up,
But Marsha can text pics of it to thee.
This above all: get the fairest price,
Or it must follow, as the night the day,
Thy trip to 2clock two place is for nought.
Farewell: my blessing season this in thee!
This sounds like a Gilligan’s Island reference, you know, because I can here your words in my head.
Vince Gilligan’s Island would probably edgier.
I don’t want it unless it’s Frainch prudential. I’m picky about my poorly-spelled furniture.
Marsha, Marsha, Marsha! Will I never have peace? Maybe I can borrowr some.
hi there…..jest call me or email me for a showing….it will be in two places at 2 oclock in [Waxakachkie] ……..Marsha.Marsha.Marsha.
I read “The Borrowers” when I was a kid, and loved the idea of little people living under the floorboards. I don’t approve of selling them, though, and putting hutch stands on top of them is just mean.
noJazziehere, due to holiday cut-backs, I’m leaving everyone in the box until the next post goes up. I’ll let you out if you help me move this hutch. Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, Starsky!
Thanks, Windy, but I’m fine just hanging here…it’s quiet, it’s warm, and I’ve got myself to keep me company…..[and only two more school days ’til Christmas , er, I mean, “winter” break….] Merry “Winter”, everyone….
So, if you have to call Marsha, does that mean that the poster isn’t the Borrow(r)man?
But is there a matching armwar and automan?
Dear Sparky – do you think you could possibly get this post translated into English? Google Translate failed completely.
WTF are you and Marsha attempting to sell ?
Here’s a picture.
Wow what splendour, what majesty what …. words fail me
*puts away the tranquilizer darts* Good!
Tig,
Bureau ≈ borrowr
“hutch stand” could ≈ almost anything from a mirror frame, to a stack of cubbies, to winterbagel parts fused to the borrowr after an unfortunate MWA.
This could probably be much more amusing, but I am not feeling at my best today.
Guy 1: I hear you’ve started dating again.
Guy 2: Yep, she’s a wonderful gal.
Guy 1: Well, she’d have to be to put up with ya’. What’s her name?
Guy 2: Her name’s Bureau.
Guy 1: You mean Beulah.
Guy 2: No, her name’s Bureau.
Guy 1: Dummy! A bureau is this wide with drawers.
Guy 2: Oh! So you’ve seen her.
*stands by awaiting inevitable beating*
Guy 1….dummy! a bureau is this wide with drawers.
Guy 2….oh!..she’s that wide even without drawers.
welcome to Panto !
That’s my new swear substitution.
Stand it all! Someone just borrowed my hutch again. Some.of.my.gum!
Sum of my gum. 8)
I think this reads better if it’s sung to the tune of “Away in a Manger.”
Back in the ’80’s, I went caroling with a group. One of them had printed up a booklet of carols including “Away in a Manager”. Of course, I had to sing it that way…much to the consternation of several women in the group.
Grrrrr IKEA! How, oh how, did they ever become so popular! Marsha, how could you?!?
*collapses on chaise whilst employing fan vigorously*
Wine me, please, for I have whined aplenty!
Plenty of wine here! Marsha isn’t getting any though, she’s already having enough trouble spelling.
