No. I need to drive to the hotel where my parents are staying.

I was drunk. I put some clothes in the washing machine before going out, and when I came back from the parties, I put the clothes in the dryer. Wasn't that perfectly obvious?

Dirrrty Mike,
Let me get this straight: is it you that is drunk, or the laundry itself.

The rest of my life right now involves drunken laundry.
Let me get this straight: is it you that is drunk, or the laundry itself. They say washing your hair in beer is good for it, but I never heard of someone washing their clothes in it.

Let me know if you start feeling an uncontrollable urge to pronounce words correctly.
Noop. Not yite. Kep treeing.
surely Kevin McDonald isn't that evil. He does have crazy hair, though.
Sir Simon Milligan might argue with you regarding Kev's evilness.

Now that's evil! [shudder]
Now that's a good argument in favor of Canada.

Mike,
Whoops, didn't see the P.S.
p.s. Living in downtown Toronto, one is likely to run into an ex-Degrassi kid every so often.
Now that's a good argument in favor of Canada. You don't see many washed-up 80s sitcom actors here in Reno. Or if you do, they won't admit it.
All the way with Stephanie Kaye! (and Stephanie P., too)
That Stephanie P. is a slut. Don't touch her with a 10-foot pole. I heard she has, like, gonorrhea and genital warts or something. And one time she did it with Bobby Johnson out behind the bleachers during soccer practice. Like, grody.

Degrassi Junior Mike,
I don't know if treats can be successfully transmitted through my low-low-low-speed modem, but I'm going to try pushing some Milk-bonz into my D: drive and see if that works. Let me know if you start feeling an uncontrollable urge to pronounce words correctly.
And giving special attention to all scenes that feature Dave Foley in a dress, and Kevin McDonald not at all.
Dave Foley is my favorite, but surely Kevin McDonald isn't that evil. He does have crazy hair, though.
Degrassi rulz!
To be perfectly honest, Degrassi wasn't one of my very favorite shows during my TV-intensive adolescence. I just remember that my friends and I would sometimes half-watch it in the lazy afternoons, between reruns of "Full House" and "Out of This World." Those were the days, eh? But Degrassi's theme song is permanently etched into my brain.

Disgrassi-
Which was my basis for suspecting the technique could be successfully applied to Canucks.
Can said techniques be applied through, say, high-speed modem lines? Do your worst, if you can.
The ounly redeeming value ouf Canada, tou the American mind, is a) the "aboot" thing, and b) Kids in the Hall. Ouh, and c) Degrassi Juniour High, I guess.
a) I agree wit'chu.
b) Minus the dreaded Chicken Lady, of course. And giving special attention to all scenes that feature Dave Foley in a dress, and Kevin McDonald not at all.
c) A couple of night ago, the CBC re-ran (for what might have been the thousandth time), the post-Degrassi TV-movie School's Out. You know, the one where Joey spends the summer boinking Tessa while lying to Caitlin, where Wheels buys an old station wagon and ends up killing a little kid and blinding Lucy with it, and where Snake strikes out over and over again with the girlies. I think, besides Citizen Kane, this is the most important movie ever made.
You think I'm being sarcastic, but I'm not. Degrassi rulz!
-mike
p.s. Living in downtown Toronto, one is likely to run into an ex-Degrassi kid every so often. I once saw Spike working at a thrift shop. And that chunky chick who was student council President? Ran into her at the art gallery. And I once had a class with the guy who played Alex (the bespectacled nerd).
All the way with Stephanie Kaye! (and Stephanie P., too)

Mikeish Terrier,
I keep getting the dreaded The page cannot be found whenever I try that page. Can you summarize the salient points for me? I'm curious as to what it's all aboot.
Hmm. Terribly sourry - it wourked when I tested it last night. Well, it was all aboot houw to teach oune's doug to say "AHH-RAHH-ROO." The gist was that a) coupious treats should be handed out at all stages of the process, and b) it takes nearly superhuman reserves ouf patience. Which was my basis for suspecting the technique could be successfully applied to Canucks.
But why would we Canucks want tou wipe out what is, in essence, the source ouf our charm? I.e. our inability prounounce certain wourds. That, and our insistence oun adding superfluous 'u's after 'o's, is what fourms our natiounal identity.
Nou, nou. The ounly redeeming value ouf Canada, tou the American mind, is a) the "aboot" thing, and b) Kids in the Hall. Ouh, and c) Degrassi Juniour High, I guess. But that's basically it.

I did not. But rest assured, if our mutual affection of Monsieur Colbert ever comes to fisticuffs, little Becky is going to have to get the beat-down. I'm not messing.

Aww, that's okay. It's kind of cute when Canucks try - and fail - to say "about." Like when people try to train their dogs to say, "I love you," and it comes out "AHH-RAA-ROOO!"
I'll not have you comparing my countrymen to a gaggle of pathetic little Scooby-Doos. I won't. That's not what we're all aboot (dammit!).
Hey, urinating across the border is one thing, but ejaculating is quite another. We don't want your Canadian man-juice staining our amber waves of grain!
I was going to say something along the lines of, "My man-juice is as pure as the first snow of a Canadian winter, and would not have left not a stain, but instead a divine glowing aura," but I figured this thread had degenerated too far as it is. At least I know when to show restraint.

Mike,
Well, I try to say "about", but I've been told recently that it does sometimes come out as "aboot". I hate living up to stereotypes, but what can I do?

For the benefit of Mr. Mike,

I thought you'd written "peeing across the border".
Sorry, "peering" was a typo. I did in fact mean to type "peeing across the border." You may proceed with your banal, post-jury-duty, urine-related knee-slappers.

Dude, I try to come up with my own material. But other people's stuff is just so good, and plus it's already written. Very tempting, as you well know.
Yeah, I can sympathise. Hell, why bother doing all the hard work when others can do it for you? A bit like sex, then.
Also ironic is your choice of title, for
you too will wind up a dead man.

Too philosophical for this time of night (22:16 here in the Uk folks) so I'm just going to pretend that you made such snide remark and get really mad at you instead.

Will be intrigued to see Depp's performnance myself, because ever since the otherwise awful Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas he seems to have been on auto-pilot.
