I am NUG here

I need a break from a2k. These stupid threads highlight the vapidity I've grown so sick of.

Trombones became extinct with the late Jurassic. Don't know about the other.

You cant leave, you havent explained what vapid means. If you mean that you dont like my condescension at some lazy kid who refuses to do her/hiz homewrok and relies on the "expert" marquee that has been shown off for A2k, and then when some folks have mean fun with the process that allows these stupid homework questions, thanks to the marquees implied promise of "ask an expert" , I dont think thats vapid. I think thats derisive.

I have to be a grownup all day long, and am on call 24 hours a day, requiring me to make mature decisions at any time of the day or night, up to and including whether or not to call 911 for my husband, or to call my sister to see if she really meant her last suicide threat, or to run the finances and day to day operations of the chai empire.

If I want to be vapid, I'll be vapid.

vapidosity is all I have.

that, and yoga.....and bubble baths.


As Kevin Bacon said in the movie Diner....**** mature.

I was mature once, pubescence cured me of that malady.

Craven/Robert, since you are fond of jazz, you should visit the radio thread once in a while.

Right on, chai. You have the Power to Be Inane. Use it. Tell FM to go kiss his armpit.

oh no.

I heart farmerman.

I will tell RG to kiss my armpit, because he's upset we are vapid.

Can anyone do a "six degrees of Kevin Bacon" with RG? He sorely needs some vapidity and stuff.

People getting mad on the internet--HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

what's the point of the moral judgment stink-bombs anyway? upset by something? move on to other threads, eh?

One you do to somebody else and the other they do to you.
I'll let you figure out which is which.

I've never played 6 degrees of separation.
Does it have to be exactly 6 degrees?

Does one person do the entire thing or does each person take a degree?

I'm......intrigued.

I understand that if you can connect RG with Kevin Bacon in less than six--YOU shall become the Queen of the known Universe.

less then six...what?

ropes?
chains?
handcuffs?

people who know each other . The original person knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows Kevin Bacon. the original social science research showed that the average number of links you needed to go through to connect someone to anyone else was six (tho I think the original research was pretty much confined to the US). Some early internet goofballs set Kevin Bacon up as the target for connecting any six people in the movie industry and he sort of became the icon of the concept, the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. It's kind of a DaVinci Code thing.

There is indeed a limit to such isn't there? If someone is so bored they write complete trash then the answer is to not reply at all. Ignore it.

I read his father's book, Design of Cities. Does that count?
Design of Cities, Edmund Bacon

Well then slap my ass and call me Queenie.

If my Wally had been playing, he could have left out Harry. That's why I call him The King.
