“Aristotle can yodel?”

I fell right into the trap. Dern.
Knock knock.
Aris
Yeah right! :p)
Aristotle, God of Satire
“I fell right into the trap. Dern.”

Such a sweet innocent young lad! (:))
.
“Knock knock”
.
Who’s there? (this is ridiculous :)))
Knock knock.
Who’s there?
Boo.
Boo who?
There’s no need to cry. It’s just a joke.
@ Aris - Age and treachery will always overcome youth and exuberance! And you think you can win with Wench Nikkiee! :))) (no offence on the age thing, Nikkiee - I’m pretty sure I’m older than you!)
@ BCA - I’m kinda surprised we don’t already have a Wench Knockers! It’s a good name!
I would love to have my mark on the letter
I know we are against it but couldn’t this start our first holy war
That reminds me. I need to finish my “historical” document.
Arrrrrgh……NO!
I’ve flat lined from drinking coffee here…..I need to go back to bed! (:))
@Wench Nikkiee
“Arrrrrgh……NO!”
.
Too slow….that was re the knock knock jokes (:)))

“I know we are against it but couldn’t this start our first holy war”
.
I’ll be up for that….bloody heretics!
And after hundreds of years of fighting they will trace the origion of the fight back to this document
And my name will be on it
I’m so proud :)
@ thesorgo - We’ll all go down in history! It’ll be fun!!! Break out the frying pans - good that we are all so experienced with those. They won’t stand a chance!
.
Out for a bit…
I’m up for adding my name to the letter, as long as it doesn’t go against any of the “I’d rather you didn’ts”.

“as long as it doesn’t go against any of the “I’d rather you didn’ts”.”
Umm…err…oops (:))))
But they started it :p))
I have to admit, Google has done an awesome job. I’m 100% pastafarian but I want to give them kudos somewhere on their page if I can. However it does look a lot like a rip off of Pastafarianism. Theres too many paralells =\ but I could be wrong, they might have gotten the idea out of nowhere…
I’ve always seen pastafarianism as a protest to intelligent design which I support, as well as any opposition to other religious dictum which attempts to subvert rationality, but under Googlism’s FAQ the purpose of their religion seems to be…
.
“The main purpose of Googlism is to promote the spread of knowledge through the use of Google. There is nothing on Earth that connects people with the knowledge they desire as fast and effectively as Google. We believe in the cliche cliché “knowledge is power”, and so should you.”
.
It’s all good until I read that part, where it just seems to pass out of good fun and reconnect with making money. If I can’t respect the reason behind something then I can’t respect the thing itself. It’s still funny though.
@Raz - What does it have to do with money? I don’t see it. Promoting the spread of knowledge is one of the most important things to do in the world (in my opinion).
Ahah! Does it go against one of the “I’d rather you didn’ts?” I do have a copy of the Gospel, but I can’t remember them. I suspected it might. I’m sure we can come up with something equally delicious without disappointing Him.
.
On a side note entirely, my daughter informed me yesterday that she is going to be depressed for the entire month of July. When asked why, she said it was because the final Harry Potter book is coming out, and she’s anticipating being very sad when it is over. She said that there will be helplines in operation to assist people with their feelings after they read the last book.
.
I said, “It’s fiction.” Then I started to think about what is real vs fictional? Fiction can be very powerful, and it can move people to very real emotions and actions. The lines can get blurred.
.
The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is, for all intents and purposes, a real religion for me. Dictionary.com’s #6 entry for religion is “6. something one believes in and follows devotedly; a point or matter of ethics or conscience.” It doesn’t matter if it’s real or fiction. The issues underlying the development of the CoFSM are very real.
.
I told you it was a side note. I’m too tired to make any deep summarizing statements. I guess I brought it up because I, like Raz, feel that the CoFSM has an actual cause in which I believe. The Googlism thing is cute, but I can’t just go believing everything I’m told, right?
.
In the words of John Mellencamp, “You gotta stand for something, or you’re gonna fall for anything.”
Aristotle: keep up the jokes now and then, I don’t know much knock knock stuff (not English speaking there is…) :)
Raz: I agree, you really have to appreciate the googlism idea!
Saucy: Pasta is real, Google is virtuous :D
Sign me up! I like signing letters. (The site looks really weird to me right now–midnight est–is it still somewhat-messed up to anyone else?)
