You must have mistaken this for the Repetitive Redundancy thread by mistake.

There is a genetic marker that makes women want to slap you upside the head whenever they hear dingbat. Wanna get in line? Hmmm?

Which is worse? To be a dingbat or to be an old bat?

Seee??? Just look at Joe. A very model of a modern major general. And nice, too.

Would he ever call someone a dingbat?

Well, maybe yes, in certain circumstances.

My second wife was a dingbat.


But she was board certified so she was proud of the designation.

Many dingbats are starting to catch onto what the word "dingbat" means. It's best to call them something else until the knowledge passes.

Because the dingbat might hear you and call house meeting!

No time to call a house meeting. I've gotta run into work for an hour. Heh...

If I don't catch you all later. Have a safe and happy thanksgiving everyone.

Sheesh. I guess it's gonna take someone who's trained in graphic art to 'splain it to you...

THESE are dingbats.

Zapf Dingbats, to be precise.

Yay! I warned Heph and she came to find out what these naughty boys have been up to.

Now I'm loving the thought of ehBeth 'splaining it to Setanta. I almost feel sorry for him, but I know he will just lap it up, loving every minute of it.

Eva, I love the snowflake dingbats. Whoulda thunk those pretty things were called dingbats?

So, what would you all do if you got $1.00?

I dunno dlowan... I kind of thought a smoking bunny was weird...

Of course you've got to consider the source of that thought...

A dingbat...

This was the same question asked by the rather agitated patient next to me at the clinic.
