2012 April 3
TV
You know what – keep the TV. I’ll give you a thousand bucks for the stand if it can do that, and two thousand if you’ll sell me the patent.
Thanks for the link, jskay!

Credit where it is due, Sparky did at least TRY to turn the picture right side up. He just clicked the wrong rotate button and forgot to hit it two more times to fix the picture.
I’ve heard of cystoceles, meningoceles, pharyngoceles, and varicoceles, but not damoceles. Whatever that is, it’s not a tumor. However, it can obviously give you a head injury.
It’s a Stoogian malady, resultant–or causative–of pendant objects threatening capital. Whether cream pie, shoe, or scimitars perched pendant aloft.
Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.
Wise guy, eh?
Hey, Dan! No fair correcting the title after we made all these great comments about the error! Technically, of course, you can and do make any changes you wish. MBBUY.
I believe dan meant “Damocles,” which is also not a tumor.
Damoceles was Damocles’s younger, slightly more eccentric brother, who was known for bouncing up and down incessantly at very regular intervals.
Don’t forget their sister, Demimooreles, who was known for bouncing up and down incessantly on very young men.
Monkey, CORNER! And give Dan a break, he’s been working really hard for us lately.
Not to mention for SCIENCE!
Y’all are just haters, that’s all you are. If I were a cute little puppy, you’d rub my tummy. But, noooooo, the monkey gets sent to the corner!
*corner bound, dragging blankie behind her*
Don’t forget, also known for bouncing up and down was Testicles.
I’m trying to come up with a mammary pun to go with your testicle comment, but no soap. I’m such a boob.
PS: Hey! HEY! Oh, I see how it is! OMV makes a balls joke and HE ain’t sent to the corner! Just the monkey! Y’all are PREJUDICED!!!
That is why I said it. To prove that point FM. You are welcome.
PS: Mammaries,
all alone in the moonlight.
Bouncing with such ease,
In a tube top that’s to tight.
There you go FM.
One, CORNER! (I didn’t know we ever let you out of the corner!) (And I have to work sometime, okay?)
*Puts up the toddler fence in the corner*
There, that should hold ’em.
Awww!
*lowers head in shame*
*head causes bucket of shame to overfill*
*shame spills all over floor making floor slippery*
*OMV slips and does airborn summersault*
Aaaaahhh!
*Summer’s military training kicks in and knees OMV in crotch*
Summer: Get off me, you perv!
OMV: Oww! It was an accident, I slipped.
*doubles over*
*Summer instrantly feels better*
*crawls toward closet to get mop*
Moral: Whoever you do, don’t never, without consent.
Bound for the corner,
FM I will meet,
I’m going there to warn her
to cover up her teet.
I know, I’m bad, but if I was really good I wouldn’t be a violation.
But, failed to clean the, whatever, off of the screen, or even find a nicer spot in the basement to take the picture.
Said cellar might be under construction, though (or demolition–it can be a fine line to cleave).
So, there may not have been any stairs down into the lair. So, intrepid Spark’ had to perch, bat-like, over the lip of the staircase to capture the elusive image.
So, to Spark’s, well, no other word suits, “imagination” that is the correct orientation for the photo–inverted and full of terror xbr! xbr!
Cellars are always under construction AND demolition simultaneously. It’s the quantum theory of storage spaces.
From the lighting and the tape on the floor I figured it was in the garage.
I especially like the two different surfaces on the ceiling and the masking tape that separates them and the pipes coming out of the walls. All in all, a very classy lab where this amazing TV stand was invented.
Spider-Stand, Spider-Stand, does whatever a spider can…
Can it watch, all your soaps?
Yes but you’ll, hurt your neck…
We jumping spiders don’t use stands, we actively hunt. Although I have been known to ride on the end of a human finger following prey, then pouncing.
Ew. Kind of like a booger.
P gets no respect. Cute little spiders get squashed. Along with our dreams of world conquest.
Boogers don’t pounce.
Are you sure about that?
An ounce of booger is worth a pound of lost lunch.
A pounce of rex is worth a lunch on the fly.
Yes, boogers just stick to one place and wait for their prey to come to them, like those lazy shiftless weavers that build those totally awesome orb webs.
I’m joking about weavers being lazy and shiftless. They are real touchy about bad vibes like that.
The Eschers finally upgraded to HDTV and listed their old set for sale.
Please Escher, Don’t Break the Laws of Physics was my favorite album of his.

Wow! I have seen stalagmites and stalactites, but never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I’d live to see an actual telegmite!
This. Is. Epic.
“Telegmite”? Isn’t that the horrible sandwich spread popular in antipodean climes?
(Men At Work Earworm some how apropos and all . . . )
I though that was ear mites.
Cp’n you wouldn’t be insulting the wonderful Vegemite or its famous UK cousin Marmite, would you? Both are brilliant and wonderful on toast. If you ever can find it check out the Billy Connelly sketch of eating toast and V’mite in a hotel in bed and the reaction of the butler when he finds that some has landed on the sheets. A classic!
If it’s hanging from the ceiling, it would have to be a telegtite.
{deleted Australian comment}
Not necessarily, mudsy. This is the antarcticus telegmite – extremely rare.
Hehe..I see what you did there. Just changed all the rules around.
And people wonder how black holes are formed…..
😉
Simple explanation. This photo was taken in Australia.
Or Sparky has an Australian camera.
Hey, see Cap’n’s above comment. This is starting to come together….
Little trick to save money: If you want to take authentic looking Australian pictures, you don’t need an Australian camera! You just have to stand on your head when you take the pictures!
It won’t work with every camera. Some of them have region encoding on them and if you try to take a picture like that it won’t have any sound when you play it back.
I understand that kelli will be cutting the cheese in the box later today. . . Oh, don’t wine!
Imbribery!
DO A BARREL^H^H^H^H^H TV ROLL!
Huzzah!
The joke’s on you, Dan… the TV levitates, and they perched the stand on top of that.
It’s HAUNTED!!
That’s an ectoplasma screen.
The picture is scary good.
A man of 256 mixed emotions, Taco is.
Hey, OMV – if you get an FB friend request from a strangely-bespectacled dog named Violet..don’t ignore
meit, please.And the friend request from a South Park character named Jd is from me.
I’m as much 8-bit in real life as I am in person.
Do all of these FB friend requests mean I’ve been vetted now? What, no snipe hunt?
Well, I wanted to make you get the official tattoo. But nOoooooooo. Taco had to go and invoke parliamentary procedure and block the floor vote. So instead, you’re just going to get branded on the flank. When you least expect it.
I think that it was a failed attempt at something like this- http://imgur.com/MxnTb…
I am going to go now and search craigslist for someone who can teach me how to hyperlink… and teach me how to Dougie…
Ask and ye shall receive. It just may not be the one you really wanted.
To hyperlink, type the following:

Ahh yes, I remember well the time I used to spend dancing on the ceiling with the TV stand and the terracotta bust.
Hello?! I’ve been known to do that all night long.
This is brilliant! Now, hoarders can get even more busted, stain-on-the-screen TVs into their houses, with the new Acme TV of Damocles. No more room on the floor or the piles? No problem! Just peel off the protective backing and stick that TV to your already-collapsing-from-the-weight-of-accumulated-crap-upstairs ceiling! Never have to say no to a great TV spotted on the curb again! YES, YOU CAN fit it into your hoard, with new TV of Damocles.
My TV of Damocles is through-bolted to the main support of the house with 20 1/2″ bolts and a pair of emergency support chains. I sit under it all the time; it’s great!
You didn’t trust the horse’s tail hair?
Horse feathers!
Horse Hair is just a sign of cut-corner workmanship. I say bolt that sucker to the ceiling and be damned with natural building products!
But with all that bolty-structural stuff you said, the TV is almost certain not to fall on your head. Where’s the fun in that? I much prefer the adventure of the peel ‘n stick. You never know what kind of cranium-obliterating hijinks might ensue.
kelli, your virtual cheese is on its way to your glowy box. Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, Hercules meets the Three Stooges!
