Re: Quote of the Week From My Life.

 

I've been sick with a chest cold the last few days, and yesterday my daughter gave me her teddy bear, with a stuffed snake hanging from the bear's neck.

 

Her: "Teddy and the Evil Mr. Bubbles will make you feel better."

Me: "The Evil Mr. Bubbles?!"

Her: "Well, he hasn't finished his doctorate yet. It's hard to write papers when you don't have any hands."

...Let me be the first to welcome our new child overlady.

Me to OddHat: "When I take off your pants I'll put them back on the dresser."

 

Now I know who wears the pants in that house.

 

 

 

The dresser.

 

 

Lucius Alexander

 

The palindromedary notes that with the careless and sloppy way Lucius undresses sometimes, any piece of furniture might end up wearing the pants at the House of the Palindromedary

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life.

 

At last night's AD&D 2nd Edition session (I was the DM):

 

Me: The giant rats are dead.

 

Player 1: Let's see what if they have any treasure.

 

Player 2: I cut a rat open to see if there's anything in it.

 

Me: You find a miniature Richard Gere.

 

Later in the game, the party encounters a filthy, emaciated dwarf.

 

Player 1: What's his alignment?

 

Me: You wouldn't know that offhand.

 

Player 2: I ask him what his alignment is.

 

Me (speaking as the dwarf): Why, are you trying to pick me up?

 

Player 1: You know, if you want to go down that road, we can do that.

Wife: "Look! It's a full moon. Watch out everybody, Daddy might turn into a werewolf."

 

Boy #1: "Really?"

 

Me: "Yup. I get all hairy and grow claws and fangs."

 

Boy #1: "Wow, Daddy might turn into a werewolf!"

 

Boy #2: "Or a pig!"

 

Me: "Well, that's not--"

 

Boy #1: "Or a frog!"

 

Boy #2: "Or a chicken!"

 

Boy #1: "Or a goldfish!"

 

Me: *sigh*

(A dear friend of mine told me about this little exchange...)

 

Student Aid: And how would you like to pay for that?

Student: Credit card.

Student Aid: OK

:: pause ::

Student Aid: Well?

Student: Well, what?

Student Aid: Your card, please?

Student: Oh! Right. Let me go get it...

You'd think it would be in General Roleplaying, but for some reason they put it in Champions.

Me: Training a sidekick is tough work. First, you have to beat all the sense out of them. Then, you have to beat sense back into them. It's exactly like training a dolphin.

G:

Me: It's really a labor of love, is what it is. :D

G: ...You know, I can actually picture you trying to train a dolphin that way... :nonp:

Not from my life but from real life-

 

Q. Russell Crowe's character in "The Next Three Days" couldn't really be a schlepp, because that's a verb of motion. But he could be a schlub, at least to start. Still, the movie lacks credibility because whoever heard of a schlub who turned into a mensch? (Jon Paul Henry)

 

A. Now I feel like such a putz. (Roger Ebert)

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life.

 

From many years ago, no context really needed.

 

Contemptible Jerk: Why don't you ever give a straight answer to a question?

 

Lucius Alexander: Because it is impossible to give a straight answer to a crooked question. I have to straighten your questions out before I can answer them.

 

Lucius Alexander

 

The palindromedary remembers that guy...
