looking for a plus size betty boop halaween cosotum – $1
IM LOOKING FOR A BEET BOOP HELALWEEN COSTUM MUST HAVE HER WIG ALSO.. THANK YOU ROCKY
Yes. Thank you Rocky!
Or is it Rocky?
Thanks, Rocky!
You too, Rocky!
Aw, heck, we’ll even thank this guy:
Anything to avoid thinking about why a guy named “Rocky” wants a plus sized Beet Boop costum.
Thanks for the link, Kate!
Want a Not.A.Lion t-shirt AND a Llama-nun's Prayer mug? How about a Cat Math mousepad? Of course you do!
All are now available as t-shirts and other things! (The llamanun mugs contain the YSaC group prayer on the back.)

I like the fact that the poster wants a “betty boop halaween cosotum” but is willing to settle for the lesser known “BEET BOOP HELALWEEN COSTUM.” Beet Boop is obviously the produce version the pin-up cartoon girl.
I can imagine the wig, but how do you get a garter on a beet?
Wait, isn’t Beet Boop the side kick of Rock Solid?
Shouldn’t this also be tagged speeling prolbems?
I can only hear this as a strange robot, who has a heavy stereotypical “asian” accent, ala Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
“I need Beet Boop Halalween Cooossstuuuum, compute. Must have wig, compute”.
Or perhaps it’s Betty’s rapping cousin, Beet Boop?
I used to live in Philadelphia, so I’m going with the Balboa preference. Though I have a definite fondness for R. Squirrel.
As for Beet Boop Helalween, my first thought was this might be some halal-acceptable root vegetable, and this Rocky person wanted (for reasons I cannot begin to guess at) it in costume form. I’m going to go get some caffeine and see if that makes a difference in perception …
Halal-ween is cracking me up!
Same here! I was thinking maybe he want’s to make sure s/he can wear this costume in the Middle East. 🙂
I am holding out hope that Rocky is a female. I did know a woman named Eddie once…
I tell ya, life ain’t easy for a Girl named Ed.
Beet Boop Helalween is the latest techo club dance craze in Middle Eastern night clubs. I hear the lines to get in are long but wearing a wig gets you on the list.
But, you grow up quick and you grow up mean.
And you end up having a barfight with your absentee father in the blood and the mud and the beer.
Hey, you forgot about me!
Holy awesome.
Why thank you.
I mean, HE would say thank you. oops. (can’t get it to edit, for some reason.)
Way to blow your cover Meredith.
That was smooth.
Yeah, I was funny, and then I go and ruin it. Again, story of my LIFE.
Well it’s like I’ve always told people. Sometimes we stumble and fall, and when that happens I’ll be there to point and laugh.
Then I wonder why I don’t have friends. It probably has something to do with the constant mockery.
And the sarcasm. Don’t forget the biting sarcasm.
The first rule of fake celebrity (or non-celebrity) avatars is you don’t talk about fake celebrity (or non-celebrity) avatars.
Hm, Ed, I wonder if *whispers* Fight Club lives by Rule 34 as well?
Rule 34 of *whispers* Fight Club is…if we exist, there if porn of us.
Link pls.
Plus Size Betty Boop! Plus Size Betty Boop? Someone makes a Plus Size Betty Boop? Doesn’t that just negate the whole portrayal? Isn’t rule one of CosPlay to be true to your own physical shape? *thinks about Princess Leia Slave Girls seen at Comic Con* Your honor, I withdraw that question.
All I can say is, “Thank you for not including a photograph”. I still have nightmares about super-sized Spidey.
I know, right? First of all it’s a guy wanting the costume, and then also plus-sized. Plus-size cross-dressing can be done so well it’s not noticeable, but the lack of detail given to the ad’s composition causes me to suspect that in this case it may not be done too well.
I just remembered once looking at an apartment to rent by a woman whose name was Manny. Maybe this Rocky is really just a big girl?
It could be a female-type person, most nicknames are fairly gender-neutral.
At one point I went by my middle name of Roxanna, and used Rocky as a nickname. So it could be. In fact, I was plus size even then! This could be my past self.
Well then, THANK YOU, Windrose aka Rocky!
Well, I’m female and my mother’s inspiration for my name (Rochelle) was her ex-boyfriend (not my father) who went by Rocky. And, really, even if Rocky is her real name there are still worse ones out there. I think the angriest person I ever met was a girl I went to junior high with whose name was Dorcas. You can’t really blame her though, I’d have been pretty ticked off too.
If I’m not mistaken, wasn’t Dorcas the name of a girl raised from the dead by Jesus or some other NT person? Also, the name of a character in the Gene Wolfe series Book of the New Sun.
Dorcas was also the real name of Godiva, the English member of the Global Guardians on DC Comics.
I don’t know how to feel about knowing by heart that piece of trivia…
Dorcas was originally biblical, but regardless of your reference for it, it’s a terrible name to visit on an American child. Trying to go by Cassie might work, as long as no one ever sees any of your documents, including your report card.
Speaking of names with bad connotations, I know plenty of middle aged and older men who go by Dick, but do you know anyone under 45 with that nickname? I can’t think of one. People still name their sons Richard, but their nicknames aren’t Dick.
Yes, I know, kind of random there.
When I was in Marine boot camp, a kid in my platoon was named Richard (Dick) Stuckenschneider. His dad was a Marine, and apparently a jackass.
His father was a real dick, indeed.
Lola, I will tell you a story you will not believe. I work with a giant guy named Dick Lovingood. He’s a big, bad biker and he’s a shipfitter at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. Nicest guy I know. His full name is Dick, not Richard. When I first told my guy I was working with a guy named Dick Lovingood, you can imagine the images that went through his head.
That’s a genius porn name. Love it.
I’ve met some nasty people with unfortunate names, and in one case in particular I suspected it was part of the reason he was so nasty.
I’ve also met some wonderfully sweet people who have unfortunate names, and are so nice you forget their name sounds like it was invented by a bunch of 12 year old boys in a locker room.
In your friend’s instance, I suspect that looking like a big, bad biker and and doing the kind of work he does probably keeps the asinine jokes down somewhat.
My husband’s name is Richard Michael, his father is Richard Paul. Hubby was called Little Dick until he went to school. Then he became Mike. I have such a hard time calling my father-in-law by his name. My mom-in-law, Goddess bless her, used to call him Richard. I think she was as uncomfortable with it as I was.
I was watching Strange Foods with Andrew Zimmern a few weeks ago and he was learning from a survival guide named Mike Hawke. I got my wife to agree that if she were ever stranded on a tropical island she would definitely want Mike Hawke with her.
HHNF- “When I first told my guy I was working with a guy named Dick Lovingood, you can imagine the images that went through his head.”
Back up, “your guy?” I tink jou’ve got some ‘splainin’ to do….
It’s not even 7 am right now, and I caught that one too. Hmmmm…..curiouser and curiouser
I wondered too, but figured I’d just wait and see if more info was eventually forthcoming.
We’re not together, but he’s been my friend for 13 years, and treats my daughter better than he treats himself. We often tell people we’re married, or together, since you usually don’t see one without the other, and he’s 6’7″ so he keeps the other aggressive male-types away.
Yeah, hence the reason I have been held back from my nerdiest desires to dress in a costume. I may be able to fill out a Power Girl suit , but a real girl also gets the hips and thighs to go with the other equiptment…and THAT ain’t parading around in a white leotard.
:::shudders at thought of self in spandex:::
I just gave myself a case of the Willy Wonkas :::shudder:::
Come correct or don’t come at all, I say.
The closest I come to putting on a costume is when my little nieces want to play “dress-up” with me and the goggles I wear sometimes while watching Dr. Horrible.
That’s normal, right?
I dressed up as Willy Wonka for Gen Con one year. I went around trying to convince people to be my Oompa Loompas. In retrospect that was probably the creepiest thing I’ve ever done.
I own about a dozen hats. Like, Easter/wedding/funeral hats, plus fascinators. And I wear them. That’s as costumey as I get. The awesome thing about NYC is that no matter how egregiously My-Fair-Lady-at-Ascot they are, I’m usually still not the weirdest looking person on the block or in the subway car.
Fascinatore exemplar, for those who care: http://www.anuccia.co.uk/images/Fascinator-AF305.jpg
That’s perfectly normal, Sarajean. Perfectly normal.
Oh! I totally wanted to be Dr. Horrible for halaween, er, helalween, uh–the holiday with pumpkins–but I couldn’t find the goggles! Do tell where you go the goggles! (Though as far as gender goes, I got that one wrong… I guess I could be a groupie, but they don’t get to wear the goggles. Boo.)
Maybe I’ll just get a Beet Boop costume instead. Has to be as cool, right?
Get them here and grab a can of silver spray paint. The silver color is all but impossible to find.
Me likey the mad scientist avatar, I.F.! He looks most deliciously evil.
Mine are just cheap welding goggles I picked up locally, made of this flexible dark green PVC. I used silver Rub n’ Buff to cover up the green. Rub ‘n Buff is wax-based so it is more flexible when it dries and won’t flake off as badly as spray paint. Because when you’re sitting alone in your darkened living room singing along to “Ninja Ropes” you don’t want to get covered in silver paint dandruff. Then you would just look silly.
About as normal as my guy wanting me to call him “Captain Hammer” during….private time.
Yeah, IF, that Mad Scientist avatar picture sure is evil. I sure wouldn’t want to get anywhere near that person.
Meredith – He doesn’t do the “And these are not the hammer…” bit, does he?
Zach Whedon said the next one will be called, Dr. Horrible II: Carnal Indulgences.
Ah, helalween . . . the one day a year I dig out my crown, give it a dust off and secure it firmly to my silver tresses. Not as a costum, tho . . . as a reminder.
Whoever you are, hello there. You and your lovely brows are more than welcome here.
Janine Turner? Here?
Finally!
Why thank you, Meredith. It is wonderful to be here. I have been a silent follower for a while now and since I found myself doing a fair amount of snorting, giggling, nodding vigorously and talking to the computer monitor, I thought I should (finally) join in the dialogue. What a lovely bunch of coconuts you all are . . . (beaming)!
And you only want to spend a dollar? AND you MUST have the wig?
Rocky Graziano needs to come back and BEAT you right in your plus size BOOP!
Is H’el al ween a Jewish holiday?
It could also be a holiday where you only eat Halal – sorry, “Helal” foods. Before you ask, I have not the faintest idea why anyone would want to do this, or what it could possibly be commemorating.
No bacon for you on Helalween! And put down that booze, infidel sinner!
“No bacon for you on Helalween! And put down that booze, infidel sinner!”
Forget theology, you’ve just put your finger on the primary reasons I would not do well as a Muslim. Or in a Muslim culture, even.
Yeah, I don’t do particularly well as one either. That said, the first time any alcohol crossed my lips I spent fully two weeks convinced I was going to hell to burn for all eternity.
By contrast, when I tried bacon for the first time I was already drunk, so it wasn’t nearly such a big deal.
Lola= Worst. Muslim. Ever.
I’m taking Lareina out for Bacon Martinis!
Oh my God, that is the best idea EVER. It’s combining your hangover food with your hangover-inducing drinks! Why has no-one thought of this before?? And why don’t I live where Tacomagic does so that I can take up that offer? Damn you and your geographic undesirability!
My personal feeling is that pork is like New Testament manna. If only I woke up to sausage links raining from the sky. Sad, really. Maybe I can put a that in the Big Boss’ suggestion box. Along with a fiver for good measure.
Make it pulled pork barbeque and I’ll add a ten spot to that.

Well gimme a bacon pâté and spread it on a matzo cracker!
I guess I mistakenly attribute anything I don’t quite understand to being Jewish. I owe it all to the Old Testament. That whole big bang 7 day theory, carnival cruises for animals, burning bushes that talk, old men parting seas and carrying rocks down from mountains, Geppetto living inside a whale, people with a sodium problem, snakes with a fetish for nekkid people eating apples, penis towers being built in the desert (hehe…I just made that one up)….oh wait..I think they had one of those in Babel (a foreshadowing coincidence? I think not!).
And people wonder why booze was invented.
I don’t know which phrase is funnier, “carnival cruises for animals” or “people with a salt problem.” When you’ve been turned into a pillar of salt, you have more than just hypertension to worry about!
So, how long do you wait before swimming after being turned into a pillar of salt?
Etymologically speaking, I think Sodom is where we got the word sodium from. Works for me.
“Could you please pass the Sodom and Gomorrah?”
You really must read the book, ‘Salt’ by Mark Kurlansky. Just finished it, and couldn’t put it down. It’s a world history through the need of salt. Sodom is definitely a name for salt, having slat evaporation flats and being one of few salt exporters in the area, freeing the region from harsh salt slavery and salt taxes and withholding during wars.
/end of boring rant/
Actually HHNF, that does sound like a good read and not boring at all since I do know what a gold mine salt was/is throughout history. I mean, I know we all can’t be corey, or tacomagic (with his enormously huge links) but a brief insight shining the light on a subject is definitely appreciated.
You couldn’t guess what I’ve learned about the Ottoman empire or the French Prevential period or even the gestation period of the Not. A. Lion species just by frequenting YSaC. I feel blessed.
HHNF is hereby nominated for today’s Corey Award.
I personally gave up on Salt during the ancient salad recipes section. Should I give it another attempt?
The ability to misspell Halloween twice and in two different ways is a super power on the scale of evil villany.
The Mispeler!
“Speel me tihs Bhatmahn! Automatapia, halaween, French Prudential, Cheasapeak, adn cumunication! Youl nevr get out a live Bahtmaan! Bahwhahaaahhhaaha!”
“Bahtmaan” = a Dutch-Thai currency-based superhero.
How do you know of my work?
Yo yo yo yo yoooooooo, this is Beet Boop. I hear you clowns don’t give the proper respect I deserve. I lay down some dope jams, suckas, so you best re-co-nize!
*and for a dancing version of this avatar, see http://cdnet.myxer.com/tn/c/1515973/big/?t=20090103213930
Yo Betty Boop, I’m real jazzed for you, I’mma let you finish, but Spider-Man had the best dancing avatar of all time. Of all time!
Nice one, Meredith.
That’s not me, I’m down here.
Uh-huh.
Actually, for some reason I figured that (and some of the similar ones, even if Meredith outed herself up the thread) were either (a) lurkers who decided to delurk only as purported other people, or (b) some of our guy regulars having a laugh. Not sure why I didn’t think they were female, probably just a clumsy supposition due to the fact I’m female and haven’t done it/didn’t really want to/can’t be arsed (last reason is the biggest one) to do it.
I confess, it wasn’t me.
I call Bianchi. Or the Hypno-Cat, whichever you prefer.
Yeh, please don’t tell me Meredith is Kanye – I can deal with the Rocky Dennis bit, but please, please, please don’t shatter all my illusions.
Could it be Lola who is behind some of our special guest stars? Maybe she is just trying to drive suspicion away from herself. Hmmmmm…
Traveler, see above reference to being too lazy. The most I can do is look around for a new picture of Catherine Deneuve once in a while. You give me entirely too much credit.
Bianchi is my pick in part because a while back his computer was allegedly “taken over” by Depressy (or the slightly-less scary Depresyy as he was at that moment) and he replied as such. Other than that, I have no additional evidence, circumstantial or otherwise.
Let me say that I have been responsible for certain “guest appearances” from time to time, but I am not, in fact Kanye. The scary part is that I did think of Kanye when I read the Betty Boop rap this morning, but didn’t want to step on the real fake Kanye’s toes.
I’m not Kanye. I thought Bianchi was Kanye, too. I feel like we’re in a thriller movie now.
“I thought it was you.” “NO, it’s not me! I thought it was YOU!!!”
could it be….the Kanye, is coming….from….INSIDE THE BLOG???
dan, drmk, I’m looking at you two…. :::one eyebrow raise:::
Now it’s like “The Usual Suspects.”
Keyser Soze is Kanye!
We always eat beets at Helalween. It’s costumary.
Just realised that Dan used a Rocky Horror quote for the title but did not include of a picture of that Rocky. I am slow this morning. I blame school restarting yesterday.
Don’t worry, I’ll try to use small words today.
My brain did not catch that either. I was thinking “Knitted or crocheted? That’s a lot of yarn.” I’ve been catching up on Regretsy archives.
And now I have a mental picture of a (badly)crocheted beet costume.
….with cthulhu tentacles!
Oh no, not again today. I’ll find more things to buy for my wife and then have to appologize for flashing my massive link in public.
Ok, I won’t whip out my massive link, but I will share this with the hookies on here, as it’s TOTALLY becoming my next project in place of the Hello Cthulhu Doll.
http://www.instructables.com/id/Dread-Crocheted-Cthulhu/
Of course it would be on Instructables.
And be frickin’ adorable.
It has little wings and curly little tentacles!(Makes embarrassing baby noises)
Alas,I’ve never been good at working in the round or I might be tempted to try it. The last thing I tried crocheting in the round looked like it was stricken with some bizarre form of yarn cancer.
Yarn Cancer is totally an alternative rock band.
And as for working in the round, I’m the exact opposite. If I work something in lines you might as well just use a pair of forks to make yarn salad, because it’ll serve the intended purpose a whole lot better than the mess I make.
I made my brother a fleece Cthulhu hood for his birthday this year. It looks more cute than menacing, but I think he will like it.
My first thought was, “That’s a long time to wait for gingerbread”. I could picture one of those intricate gingerbread houses, but shaped…differently.
I like cookies.
If you find a crochet Cthulhu hat pattern, send it my way, Lola.
Oh, and real men crochet doilies in public.
you. said. doilies.
HAHAHA
Mooooom, mudslicker is laughing at me again!
doilies? DOILIES??!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
::::runs around wildly waving arms::::
Wheeew, okay, I think I’m okay now. Just a flashback to college. So…..many…..doilies…uuuuuggghhh.
I broked the internets, but is okay, I fixed it.
Now tacomagic is going to go pout in his room and listen to whiny emo music.
I am having a hard time picturing any college experience involving doilies that would cause that sort of reaction in you, Meredith.
Have you ever seen a grown woman taken down by a pack of ravenous doilies? It’s not a pretty sight my friend. It leaves a scar on your soul to see it. A scar that never heals.
Now I can add wild marauding doilies to the list of things that frighten me. Thanks for that, tm.
I’d like to mention that the idea of a guy who crochets is awesome. My Mom has several throws my Grampa crocheted using cotton tobacco twine and they are beautiful.
Plenty of doilies down here, Georgie.
And here I was thinking everyone was yelling, “And SEVEN NIGHTS!” at their screen upon reading the title.
Well, I was close. In my neck of the woods when you reach that part of the film its “and six nights!”. I think because of all the ads for fabulous travel packages “includes seven days and six nights” yada, yada, yada. So I was singing the six nights bit if that makes you feel better.
I was hearing “and seven nights!” but now the song started over.
“A weakling, weighing… ninety-eight pounds
will get sand in his face when kicked to the ground”
and etc. This is gonna take a while to get out of my head.
I suppose there are worse things than Rocky Horror Earworms.
Yeah, like Rocky Horror Mountain Oysters.
In Soviet Russia, beet boops you.
(Had to do it, and it was too easy.)
In Soviet Russia, Boops beet you.
In Russia, Soviets beet Boop.
Any other MST3K fans reading this and hearing “noooooo springs! BEET BOOP!” ?
Worst short ever. That gremlin’s voice….yeeeeaaaarghhhhh *covers ears*
Noooo Mike’s socks. *whistle*
The sad thing is that Rocky will never even read this ad. The local saloon doesn’t have Wi-Fi, just Gideon’s Bible.
Yay, Beatles reference.
So this person is looking for a robot costume with a hair wig?
*beet-boop*
Does not compute.
ERROR: Halaween != Helalween
ERROR: Cosotum != costum
ERROR: Betty Boop != plus size
THANK YOU ROCKY.
BEET BOOP
Hey get a….
Oh, forget it.
*flirts with Bianchi*
Quick cheeze it, I think I heard jg.
Bianchi, Taco, do I have to send you two guys to your separate rooms?
Oh, Windrose, you know this is a co-Ed dorm.*And by Co I meant Communist. And by Communist I meant Ed. And by Ed I meant Ed*
But which Ed? Grunge Ed is kind of scary but Sailor Ed is a slice of hotness with a side of (insert wolf whistle here).
I thought I remembered Betty Boop having womanly proportions, making a plus-sized Betty Boop less of a stretch. (heh)
But a quick Google image search seems to show that I misremember, so so much for that effort to keep this ad from breaking my brain.
::goes off in search of brain pieces::
Only if womanly proportions allows for the measurements:
28
7
36
You forgot to account for her head
98
28
7
36
And she’s a 115 long. Really hard to fit that gal.
Can you imagine the work to make a custom hat for this chick? Or a sweater she could pull over her head? Button ups, lady, BUTTON UPS!.
I’m picturing the Pep Boys, with their giant heads rolling around.
Whoah, HH, now I’M picturing the Pep Boys…and they are doing bad things with Betty Boop. Brain bleach, please!!!
Rule 34.
Thanks Graham and Meredith.
*reaches for the container of boiling bleach*
Thanks to Meredith, I’m now picturing Betty Boop in a onesie. A very …curvy… onesie. And in plus size.
Where’s the brain bleach queue?
(Note: I am …erm… larger myself, but at least I dress to flatter that.)
The poor thing would snap like a twig with those measurements.
You know, Betty Rubble had a similarly tiny waist and she was played by Rosie O’Donnell (who is most definitely in the “plus-sized” category) in the live-action movie. Maybe Rosie’s planning on ruining another beloved classic.
Betty Boop–the first bobble-head.
You might be remembering the original Betty Boop, before the prudish Hayes Act toned her down. (“Help, help, I’m bein’ repressed!”)
http://www.askmen.com/top_10/entertainment/top-10-hottest-cartoon-characters_3.html
I always get Betty Boop confused with Toot from Drawn Together, whose proportions change from buxom pin-up to remove-from-house-with-crane several times an episode.
Another innocent forever tainted by humour… Huzzah!
that model betty boop (1990-93) has a chassis code of COSOTUM, so it is common for boop people to refer to that outfit as such. “COSOTUM” makes sense to me because it means everything but Bimbo and Koko. no excuse for the other nonsense, really, but $1 is a reasonable price. helalween usually means no rust no dents and little paint fade.
Okay, Corey has officially reached exploitable meme status.
But he forgot to say if it was minty or not. I must know!
I think we need to come up with a “Cory of the Day” award to go under YDSaC.
My ex had a friend who’s last name was Planzer, and because of all the stupid things he said and him never getting a joke, they started handing out “Planzer Points”. He’s been out of touch for over 7 years (when we started dating) but they still will use that system if someone just doesn’t get something.
This would translate to—Corey Credits???
The award used to be known as “The Cliffey” (Cliff Clavin), but “The Corey” works better here on YSaC.
But is the boop shell MINTY? That’s the real question.
Later edit: apparently Sarajean and I were having the same thought. Now I really want to know!
The question burns within me. I can taste the sour tang of it on my tongue, begging to be asked.
That or I need a Rolaids.
Oh, Rocky!
Oh, Bullwinkle!
You know, just because you CAN ‘Rule 34’ a situation, it does NOT mean that you SHOULD.
Bloody hell, Dan. Some of our regulars are criminally uneducated about a particular slice of 80s subculture.
Seriously…rule 34 again!!! Why must you people make me think these dirty, evil things?
Because we can?
Or maybe I should say ‘because they can’. I’ve been lurking so long I feel like part of the gang.
A very quiet, creepy, part of the gang.
Who projects my evil thoughts straight into poor innocent Meredith’s mind.
Bwahahahaha!!! *clears throat* Back to lurking or my evil plot will be noticed.
Too late. Miss Jo! Too late! Get back in here and post, damn it!
I would, but the darn time difference ruins my perfect comic timing. (I was eating ice cream on the beach)
Oh Rocky! You’re so fine! You’re so fine you blow my mind! Hey Rocky!
Holy hot damn, if you look down at recent comments, you’ll notice that people are commenting on posts from last August. Maybe that’s how we lure in the lurkers, by letting them get comfortable commenting on old posts.
Also, have you noticed that maybe 50-60 of us comment on here, but there are 3,000 Facebook fans? wowzers.
We could hope that they enjoy our antics.
I can feel their eyes. They’re watching…judging, always judging. MAKE THEM STOP, TACOMAGIC, MAKE THEM STOP!!!
Now maybe you know how it feels… 😛
And I just got the sudden urge to change my avatar to one that is not a picture of my actual face.
Is this another doily flashback or some new craziness?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Aw Lareina, I like it!
Don’t do it, lareina…you’re prrrreeeety.
Aw, thanks, you two *giggle, blush*
Nah, I have 2940 fake Facebook accounts.
Man, you gotta move pretty fast today. My last post would make more sense about three lines up.
BALETED, stupid comment.
I totally just switched my avatar. Sharts, my bunny’s on TheChive and SheChive and DisapprovingRabbits and…damn I can’t go anywhere.
I just changed mine but I can’t see it on this stupid computer… does anyone see Deadpool?
No, but when I do you’ll see me waggling my eyebrows and flirting shamelessly with you.
Okay, everyone, this is SRS BUISNESS! Clear your cache NOW NOW NOW NOW!
I saw it over in the forums but it hasn’t changed here yet.
Now it has. For me anyway. I can’t clear the cache manually on my work computer, so I had to log completely off and then restart and log back on.
HHNF – That is an adorable bunny, but what is the pink thing?
Yaayyy…
Hey, there. :::waggles eyebrows in Grahams direction::: What’s a nice merc like you doing in a place like this? :::waggle waggle:::
Killing time, mostly.
So Deadpool… what’s your view on duct tape?
I love it. Duct tape duct tape duct tape duct tape…
Testing.
Sara and Windrose, thankss for your awesome fandom on my Rumi page. That bunny is my evil bun, Machine Bun Kelly. My daughter calls her Appa, after the flying bison on The Last Airbender *they do look freakishly similar*
The pink stuff is berry juice! We got done making tarts and rubbed blackberry, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry and huckleberry juice on her and sent her out in the sun to dry. She was quite fabulous.

I. Love. The. Bunny.
That is all.
HHNF, I love that site! Thanks for showing us the way. I’m waiting for my first rumi to get approved.
Got any hedgehogs like that???
Maybe the poster is really looking for a Bettie PAGE costume. That’s what all of the, um, “plus size” gals who hang out with the hot rod and wallet chain boys around here wear. And the best part, everyday is helalween!
mmmmmmmm, I like those boys.
You’ll make DeadpoolGraham jealous. And you know what happens then…
DeadpoolGraham doesn’t get jealous. He gets even.
eep!
Could someone please tell me the date for Helalaween? I can’t have it interfere with my Ramalamadingdongdann (damn that was hard to spell) celebrations.
And, I’d like to add that if you’re going to thank Rocky you need to include Bullwinkle, Natasha, and Boris.
Oh, and the little dude who always got crushed by the “Fractured Fairytales” book. Come to think of it, he wore a tutu and wings…
I had to go back and feel a little bad wondering if that comment was somewhat religiously insensitive, but I admit I still can’t get the tears out of my eyes from laughing so hard. Hands over my mouth stifling my cackling, that’s how hard I laughed.
Hey, I’m laughing, so you’re allowed.
I was waiting to see if you would. Thought so. I mean, you’re talking about going to get bacon booze. Oh, and I want to come along, btw.
I like to think I walk a fine line between not being hypersensitive while still not passively standing by when genuinely offensive things are being said about the faith. I have a huge amount of respect for people I know (in some cases am related to) who practice it faithfully, peacefully and without judging others who have different belief systems, so I feel bound to show that respect even though I’m a terrible Muslim myself.
Who said anything about Muslim? I’m talking about the Church of the Sub-Genius here!! Or don’t you believe in Bob??
Speaking as a Pastafarian, touched by His Noodly Appendage, I think you are one of the best Muslims I know, Lareina!
RAmen, sister.
I throw my Pastafarian hat in with those two. Way better than most Muslims I know, and much smarter than your average bear.
Yours in Love and Noodles,
Pastafarian Taco
That’s very sweet, you guys, really. Thank you 🙂
Hee. Windrose, you said ‘noodly appendage.’ *snort* *giggle*
Lareina, I did, indeed! Refer to yesterday’s post about my Sig. Other being Chthulhu. *giggle*
Finally, our first racist comment of the day.
Again, picture this up a line or two. Geez, now I wish I had taken typing lessons at some point in my life…
Privileges of rank…and I’m ranker than most. LOL
Some folks type 50 words per minute. Others type 50 minutes per word.
You need to type a little slower. I can’t read that fast.
HH, I just read a bit of your Ruminations page, and some of it was so cute I actually called people over to read it.
I’m joining ruminations just so I can gourmet your comment on football. I want a T-shirt of it.
You and me both, sarajean. Also the one about talking, and the purse one. Actually, more than half of them are tshirt worthy.
Had to go join. Looks awesome.
I just talk too much, that’s all there is to it.
🙂
I think this person should be commended. He/she is looking for costumes in January…. get ’em while they’re cheap!
Ok, if you ever ever see this, I Love Your Name!! Being a fellow Junkie… umm yeah. I sometimes use the surname Deschain on other sites… *headdesk*
This is also testing.
I am afraid I have to fail you.
I just want my own style sheet, is that too much to ask? With a yellow background, a comic-sans font, bold, and a red dashed outline.
Yes, that is too much to ask.
Is it too much to demand?
No no. Please, go ahead.
Yes it is, but it’s because Comic Sans should be banned from the face of the planet. Choose any other font and you’re probably fine.
… Yes, I’m a font queen. I do lettering and calligraphy and my grandfather engraved. I can tell the difference between Electra and Palatino! I used to have entirely too much time on my hands!
Can you recommend an alternative, appropriate font for a comic anti-hero’s speech bubbles?
Lucida sans.
I can’t believe I actually went and gave that thought and looked at the font list. Anyway … not flashy, but does not engender the anger that Comic Sans does. There’s apparently a website that feels like I do – I thought it was just me being obscure and irrational; maybe I am anyway, but I’m not the only one.
I definitely agree that there’s a time and place for cutesy fonts, and most times and places, Comic Sans is inappropriate (perhaps even for comics). Thank you for the recommendation.
I’m in agreement with you, Lola, on Lucida Sans. Always been a favorite of mine over Comic. I must (blushingly) admit that when Trebuchet was mentioned in yesterday’s post, my first thought was of the font, not of the medieval weapon.
How about for a pre-renaissance theme? Like not quite as Gothic as the dark ages but not as light and curly as full on script.
I’ve been using a variant of Black Adder II, but I can only recycle that so many times.
Your honor, another point of order. You are all talking about typeface, not font. Font is the whole package in that typeface.
*Black Adder FTW*
that is all
Still no new person in the Don’t Suck box, and I have to go out for a bit in 15 minutes. Sigh. Guess I’ll have to use my reliable but less authentic popular vote method for today’s slot.
Looks like tacomagic won.
Yay, another punch for me. Someday I’ll have enough of them to afford the combination squirt gun, microwave, and julienne slicer.
Better have a corkscrew on it, or it’s nearly useless otherwise, though …
Tacomagic, it’s more fun to punch you than almost anyone else. 8) *punch*
ehehehe.
It’s because I squeal like a little school girl, isn’t it?
Come on, people! 80 more posts, and we will break the record!
It’ll be like one of those marathon dances during the Depression where people would dance for 36 hours straight for a chance to win, like, five bucks.
Dude, it was the Depression. A finsky would house and feed your family for a week or more. If your options are to dance your butt off or pose for a Walker Evans photo before you quietly starve to death in rural America, why not go out with style?
Oh, I definitely agree that it was the way to go. Better that than to have a run in with Lennie Small or something.
I always wonder if he stood there munching on a sandwich while he shot those.
“Yeah ::crunch crunch:: tilt your head over juuuust like that. You’re really conveying the empty feeling that is gnawing at the country right now.”
“You put that sandwich away or I’ll be gnawing on your arms in a minute, asshole.”

Dunno if I can help you, there. I’m sure to spout more idiocy, though.

If you were a furry, what kind would you be?
Oh. My. God. It’s like we’re in college and drunk but we’re almost out of booze* and it’s so late the shops are closed so we can’t get more but haven’t passed out yet. That’s what kind of conversational gambit that question is, GrahamT.
As for type of furry – beet boop, does not compute. The closest I’d ever get to being a furry is if someone bought me a fur coat and I wore it during … “business time.”
*Reduced at this point to drinking crap from the bottles stashed under the sink – not cleaning products, actual alcohol – from random parties, and which you wouldn’t normally drink, especially not together. That’s when you end up with red wine and peppermint schnapps cocktails, shitfaced shiksas fighting over the last ice cubes to put in their Manischewitz, and sagely agreeing that, yes, beer and peach schnapps is surprisingly palatable, and … “HEY! Dave passed out! Let’s ‘chief’** him.”
*runs to get Sharpies for decoration of passed out fellow partier, so that he can, in the morning, sport leg decor (it was summer) reading “Eat at Dave’s,” complete with upward-pointing arrow for the clue-deprived*
**Yes, that’s what we called it, and no, I’m not proud.
Oh, trust me, I know what I’m doing, Lola. 😉 And for blog purposes, we are at that point of the night.
I think furry-ism is one of the most bizarre sexual fetishes. It is especially creepy to me because it seems to go hand-in-hand with watching bizarre anime, which means that it is not only a recent evolution in fetishes, but it’s also imported.
The first time I ever heard of furries was in a Vanity Fair article somewhere like 5-8 years ago, and my. jaw. just. dropped. My tastes are pretty vanilla, though I’ve heard of a few types of fetishes, and that one was freakishly out of left field for me. I still can’t get my head around it. The only things it’s weirder than to me is crush stuff (women in heels smushing animals – WTF?!?!?!?), about which I may be mistaken (or just hopeful) but I think is illegal in some states.
The article was the first one ever where I remember – and clearly – the interviewer saying to the interviewee, “So, how f***ed up are you?” in a serious manner, and the interviewee did not get offended, and in fact answered in a likewise serious manner.
I found the article in the VF archives. 2001, so nine years ago. Nine years of the fact of the existence of furries nesting in my brain. Bleach please!

I wonder if you can be a furry if you are allergic to furry animals… Dying of acute anaphilactic shock caused by an allergy to yourself sounds undignified but awesome.
What if one of the regulars here was a furry? Would you feel bad?
(That post is an example of [mildly-]drunk posting, by the way. I was lurking the forums and the thread about drunk posting has inspired me to open a bottle of cognac).
Why would I feel bad? I just don’t understand them. One is an emotion and the other is a cognitive issue.
I honestly doubt anyone here is. If I know my furries, they would have had to rub their fetish in our face at some point.
I don’t know, Graham, I don’t think it’s quite as recent as all that. Eroticization of animals has been around for centuries, as has the concept of self-identifying with or taking on the properties of certain animals by wearing their skins. The furry phenomenon seems like it could well be the modern manifestation of that combination. But, you know, with added levels of strangeness from the whole anime thing.
Really, furries seem very tame to me. Maybe I’ve seen too much, but at least it’s a clean fetish, more or less. I mean compared with diaper fetishes at least.
Oh dammit, Lareina, you had to bring that into it.
Okay, so barring the possibility that the priestly class of ancient Egypt were in fact the equivalent of the modern Japanophile, it’s a relatively recent development.
It’s not like these people are acting out complicated resurrection rituals or anything. They’re putting on Tigger suits with holes in the genitalia and boinking. I refuse to give them recognition alongside Native American skinwalkers and the priests of Anubis.
Yes, I highly doubt we have any furries on the board at all.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go put on my chipmunk costume.
Why, in heaven’s name WHY did I FOLLOW THAT LINK!!
My eyes!! My eyes!!
Pass me the boiling bleach for my brain, too.
Sweet.Son.Of.A.Seagoing.Serpent. <<< NOT furry!
Then by no means should you look at this link, CJ . . .
http://datewrecks.com/2009/10/kinky-stuff-indeed-2/
Proving yet again that you are never too old to be edumacated about something you wish to learn absolutely nothing about.
Arched…you are evil..
I’ll handle the idiocy spouting, thank you very much.
Please proceed. You are responsible for ten posts’ worth of idiocy spouting. And… action!
I’m still trying to work through Lola’s post. It’s genius, at least I think so.
LOL You said boinking, Graham!
Ruh roh, we’re into the delirious stage of the evening.
Whoa. It was just that once, okay? I’d had alot to drink, and we were in Vegas.
Graham, Meredith and I were kind of involved with some transvestite strippers, an Elvis impersonator and his midget lover. My memories are fuzzy up til the point where the feds busted down the door and took my duffel bag of pills and sex toys. The rest had to be shown to me in maximum security prison, from the videotapes they confiscated from Graham’s cameras. I didn’t even know human beings could do some of the things I saw. They found Meredith hiding in the mini-fridge with a taco hat on, mumbling to the vodka bottles. Graham is still on the run, and we found his donkey abandoned outside of the Mustang Ranch, where his four pregnant lovers were shocked to learn that he is, as Lareina says, a woman.
*applause*
HellHathNoFury, ladies and gentlemen! Don’t forget to catch her on Community, Thursday nights at 9 on NBC, and we’ll be right back!
I woke up without my hat this morning, anyone know where it went?
edit: ummmm, and why is there a midget in my trunk?
Taco Taco Hat!
I like to wear my Taco Hat! Taco Taco Taco Taco Tacohat!
I like how Windrose conveniently ducked out after issuing this challenge. *shakes fist*
Smart woman!
Hey, I had love birds and lorikeets to play with! Ahem. Furrys, eh? I believe they trace some of the fetish back to Disney’s Robin Hood. So, how many more posts do I have to make now?
Great, now I can be ashamed of liking that movie too.
Thanks Windrose.
Is Perfect Plan:
We put bomb on boat
Moose and Squirrel get on boat
Bomb go Boom
No more Moose and Squirrel!
My avatar was supposed to change to Boris Badanov
I like the puppies best. Their cuteness is far more likely to be fatal than Boris and Natasha’s plans.
It’s been ages since I watched those, but every so often when I see squirrels (they live in my neighborhood, black ones included) my brain says “Squee-rell” like Boris.
I do not know why this is so.
Try clearing cache. (Yes, that’s the extent of my technical abilities.)
If that doesn’t work, reboot (also extent of my tech savvy).
Is it plugged in? 😀
Is it under a window? I understand they run better under windows.
Ba-doom cha!
I KNEW THAT WAS WHAT PUPPIES ARE ALWAYS PLANNING.
All day long puppies think of death.
Is no matter; here in Pottsylvania, notting matters. Everyone is spy, saboteur, or assassin. We make car, the Assassin 8, but only for export. In Pottsylvania, is only 12 miles of roads!
Dude, I’m done here. I just tried posting and got some kind of bad 400 message. And in small letters under that, it said “nginx.”
It’s the nginx that scared me. That, and the fact I have to get up in 6 1/2 hours. 🙁
Hope we break the record. I did my bit!
RACIST!
Also, and I realize this is out of place, but I love Traveler’s “dying from being allergic to yourself.” When I was younger and stupider I’d occasionally have moments of clarity where I’d be all, “Man, I hope this works out because it’s a really stupid way to die.” I think self-induced anaphylactic shock is in that category.
Thank you. The idea came to me because I love cats and I’m always tempted to adopt one, even though I’m too allergic to them for it to be a sensible idea. And, for a semi-drunken mind, the path from that idea to “death by anaphilactic shock caused by furry fetish” was a short, albeit slightly winding, one.
Traveler! There are now cats that do not cause allergic reactions! They are genetically engineered and stuff, and cost a small fortune, but it’s totally worth it!
I’m allergic to cats too. 🙁
Yes, I’ve read about them, and I’m pondering it. The “costing a small fortune” bit may be a problem, though. And I know that I would feel a bit guilty if I bought a cat from a pet shop instead of adopting one from an animal shelter.
Hmm, well, Norwegian Forrest cats are said to be hypo allergenic. And there’s a Siberian cat, not a Not.A.Lion, with similar properties. But I hear you, so many cats in shelters, not many would be these breeds.
I love Norwegians! I will get one and name him Henrik Ibsen.
Hmmmm, my best friend has a Norwegian Forest (and adopted from a shelter; in fact, she and her sister ran my hometown’s shelter for some time, so all of their animals come from there). The next time I visit her, I’ll have to spend the evening petting it, to test it against my allergy.
I just keep my cat in a ziploc.
Just seeing if anyone is still here…
Still … again.
Doesn’t he claw through the plastic pretty easily?
i’m enjoying the idea of norwegian forests swarming with feral cats.
Sweet dreams, Lola. We’ll carry on in your memory! Er, not like you are gone forever, or anything.
Near, far, wherever you are…
Dammit, 31 more… I don’t think we’re gonna make it.
Don’t give up, Graham! Fifteen each, we can do it!
*pant pant* I just can’t… come up with original material… stand by for meme vomit…
*wretch*
Yo dawg, I heard you like to break posting records, so I got you a meme so you can vomit unoriginal material while you break posting records!
*hrrrrrr haarrrgh blaaacccfhgggghghh*
I accidentally the comments section.
Oh God, please make it st -*harrrr gggaaauuuughh, hablaaagghh*
I think records is a pretty cool guy. Eh gets broken all the time and doesn’t afraid of anything.
DO NOT WANT!
*dry heave*
I’m in ur blog, killing ur d00dz.
Hey, me, get a room!
LOL You should take this show on the road, except for how soul killing it is.
*bow*
Graham is going to need a hangover remedy this morning.
I’m going to go read some web comics, be right back!
Don’t forget xkcd.com and phdcomics.com. Dilbert is also online.
xkcd doesn’t have a new comic until friday. And today’s Questionable Content is not up yet. Shame.
Had to hit Girl Genius, Something Positive, Sinfest, and Order of the Stick. The rest can wait for the weekend. I rather like reading six at a time.
Oh, Graham, I am worried for you. Is breaking the record really worth this?? IS IT?
It’s all I’ve got left… I’ve got… nowhere else to go… I’ve got nothin’ else…
Ok, yeah, that’s not worrying AT ALL.
Nine more… we can do this…
13 more to go…
I never thought I would say this, but I am sick of seeing Deadpool’s confused face.
LOL I’m pretty tired of the dead, stuffed Norwegian Blue. Sigh. The search for an avatar of lasting enjoyment is on!
OMFG we did it. We broke the record.
Windrose, you can go back to your Sun Conure. That one is both pretty and cute.
Or a lovebird?
Honestly, I’m sorry you had to go all supermodel on us. I had no idea. See what happens when I leave you alone for an hour?
Really, I thought that if anything could spur a million comments, it would be my Vegas post. My heart is full of sadtimes now.
Victory, nonetheless. Winning is winning, whether by an inch or a mile.
Your post was just. too. swweeeeeet. No one could top it.
We simply cannot break the record in a hail of vomit. That would not maintain the high integrity and impeccable standards with which this site has long been associated. Therefore, in the interest of maintaining class and dignity in such a lofty pursuit, I shall introduce a new subject that is rife with discussion materials . . . Blazing Saddles!!! I love beans . . . anyone?
Oh, darn, my favorite line from that movie is a racist remark!
JINX!
Is this the part where I say the “n” word?
Whatever you need to do, buddy.
Yes, please, and then show yourself out. WE DID IT! Thanks, guys, couldn’t have done it without you!
Balloons and confetti for everyone! Thanks Lareina, Windrose, Lola, Traveler, Arched Eyebrows, HHNF, and jg… if I missed anyone it’s because of my sleeping pills… GOODNIGHT!
Having not had enough sleep (up late helping with the record), I read that as “baboons and confetti,” which led to an interesting mental image …
I had been scrolling through all the other comments kind of quickly and got “bacons and confetti.”
Which would you rather have with confetti: bacons, or baboons?
And now for something completely different.

Hey, where is everybody? Where did all this meme vomit come from? Did I miss something? Hello? HELLO?
I woke up to possibly the best rambling ever to find it’s way on here, and of course it’s the one night I FORCE myself to go to bed early and NOT peek back on here. Story. of. my. life.
Ah well, tomorrow is another day. Er, or today is, I guess.
You folks are nuts.
awww, thanks dad!
i cant get here until after work for me on the east coast, and i’ve missed most of the good stuff. but let me add my vote for nelson ‘rocky’ rockefeller, the late gov of NY. just another rocky. and i like comic sans. i’m not sure, but i could go into the font diva category. have over 3000 at my beck and call. i prefer the sans serifs – of many types.
help me ban times roman.
Good gravy on a muffin! I leave you people alone for 15 hours straight and look what you’ve done to this place. Talk about a bunch of Chatty Cathys!
*grabs a broom and starts to clean up the meme vomit* Sorry, Mudsy, it won’t happen again. Until next time.
I’m guessing that Graham “The Situation” T was the instigator.
Hehe…A broom is totally too low tech. This place needs a bulldozer and ShamWow.
…Or at least a shop-vac.
A German shopvac. Because as we all know, those Krauts make some really quality stuff.
As I say after every gathering that leaves an act-of-God sized mess in my house: “Can’t we leave it this way…in memorial?”. It never works.
MAGIC SPRINKLES!
Everyone knows you use Magic Sprinkles to clean up meme vomit.
Awww . . . I loved my Chatty Cathy! Thanks for reminding me 🙂
Good grief! This reminds me of college. I try to go pass out with a nice young lady in my room and have a lively philosophical discussion, and I wake up to vomit and debris and several people still partying. I love you all. Now don’t give my friend any grief as she leaves.
I still smile with every single RHPS reference on this blog. I will never tire of them.
Beet Boop is the B side of Rutabaga Rag.
This has been so great to read. I had a really crappy Friday and this made me laugh. It’s like a family reunion.
Thanks all!!!

This redux commemorates my first foray out of lurkdom! How fun to go back and relive. And to do so with the illustrious Windy and Dave as box companions. *hugs* I laughed, I cried, I hurled memes. Don’t worry, we can clean up in the morning.
I’m not dead.
I think I’ll go for a walk.
OMV!!! You’re alive and snarking! How delightful! I know you’re having surgery tomorrow and given the time zone, I’m going to imagine that you won’t see this beforehand, but I will be thinking about you and sending good juju.
I’ll be on in the morning. My surgery will be around 1pm mountain time. The surgery will be a single bypass. And thank you for the good wishes. Also from those best wishes from a couple of days ago.
Godspeed, dear heart!
So, brain, i had this idea . . .
Yeah, what?
Oh, daylight savings time?
Wut?
Bunnehs!
Another Saturday Night, and I ain’t punched nobody,
I look at Archie and she looks at Dave.
Oh how we wish we had someone to snark at,
We’re in an box-like state!
Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, Mr. Fleischer!
