Day 199 - Next It Will Be 'The Club Club' For The Club, Activate the Bat Blog-Title!, The 1924 Olympic Lames, Katzenjammer IT Is Rather Good, Ziggy Stardust's Electronic Bladder Goes To Uranus, and "Tragedy" Is A Relative Term In Both Obituaries And Films

Mr. Amethyst
Yes, but guns are not only to stop shootings, because "the fastest reaction is still slower than the slowest action", but also to stop…I don’t know…cayjackings.
car*
WTF is a cay?
9:26 AM Mr. Blue
It’s like a sandy island.
9:26 AM Mr. Silver
Cayjacking!
"Yo!  Get off the ISLAND lady!"  (pulls her off, jumps on...peals out)
"MY CAY!!!!"
9:27 AM Mr. Blue
LOL
You're sayin' what I’m thinkin'!
9:28 AM Mr. Silver
(spokesman) "Has this happened to you?  It doesn't have to turn into a problem with anti-cayjack technology."
"The Anchor, from Winning International, can help!"
9:29 AM Mr. Silver
"Simply toss it over the side, and cayjackers are stopped cold!"
9:30 AM Mr. Silver
(Warning: Will not prevent cayjacker from shooting you in the face.)
9:31 AM Mr. Blue
Or a giant Club™ that just kind of sits on the sand.
9:32 AM Mr. Silver
(TV ad of guy all in black with black knit hat and black 'crook' mask, going island to island...passing the one with the giant Club™)
9:32 AM Mr. Amethyst
LOL
"Drat!  Foiled again!"
9:33 AM Mr. Silver
"Thank you, Club™!  You saved my sand!"
9:33 AM Mr. Amethyst
My gun has been pulled once and only once, and that’s all it took.  Big scary bald guy let go of my door handle real fast.
9:38 AM Mr. Blue
Your car door?
9:38 AM Mr. Silver
House door!
"Yo!  Outta the HOUSE man!!!"  (Pulls man out of house, jumps in...peals away)
"MY HOUSE!"
9:38 AM Mr. Blue
LOL
9:39 AM Mr. Silver
(spokesman) "Has this happened to you?
9:39 AM Mr. Amethyst
LOL
Yeah, my car door. Also I forgot; I pulled it on my neighbor’s dog once too.
Thought the damned thing was gonna kill me.
9:40 AM Mr. Silver
"Yo! Gimmie that LEASH man!"  (Grabs leash, pushes...dog and crook peal out)
"MY DOG!!!"
(Spokesman, drinking straight from bottle) "..."



Mr. Brown
So I just was thinking; they kind of took the scientist part of Batman away from him in the movies.
2:49 PM Mr. Amethyst
Yeah, Batman is a ninja in these movies.
2:52 PM Mr. Silver
The last time Batman did scientific research that I recall was Keaton figuring out Smilex in the first Burton movie.
2:54 PM Mr. Brown
In the comic books, he is always inventing stuff himself.
Like pills he can take to stop a gas from affecting him and such.
I would think they would put that in the movies.
2:57 PM Mr. Brick
I never liked that aspect of the comics.  prob why I think DC comics is garbage.  The hero always seems to just happen to have the absolute right "thing" at the absolute right moment, regardless of what the circumstances could possibly be. 
2:58 PM Mr. Amethyst
There’s a pack of hungry genital-eating piranha...luckily I have just invented the Bat Bite-Proof Nut Cup.
2:58 PM Mr. Brick
LOL
2:59 PM Mr. Brown
Well he would come up with stuff for specific foes
They have something they are using against him; he loses the fight, gets away, and then comes up with something to help.
2:59 PM Mr. Silver
Quick Robin!  The Bat Spectacled-Bear-With-Ebola Repellant!”
2:59 PM Mr. Amethyst
Hahahahaha
2:59 PM Mr. Silver
Holy ursines, Batman!  How did you know? “
Like any good hero Robin, one must have a Deus to Ex for any Machina.”



2:16 PM Mr. Blue
WTF
2:17 PM Mr. Brown
Looks like we don't compete, or we suck at those.
2:21 PM Mr. Silver
Full Contact Literature!
All-In Architecture!
Synchronized Painting!
2:22 PM Mr. Blue
Welterweight Poetry
2:23 PM Mr. Brown
The Paint Brush Toss
2:23 PM Mr. Silver
What dolt thought the arts should be in the Olympic Games anyway?
2:23 PM Mr. Blue
The Olympics were originally intended for "athletes" that didn't even practice.
2:23 PM Mr. Brown
Well they practiced, just not like they do now.  More like they did that stuff for fun.
2:23 PM Mr. Silver
"Entrants must be amateurs who know nothing of the disciplines."
2:24 PM Mr. Brown
Big macho fest, so they had to get the thinkers in there too at some point.
2:27 PM Mr. Blue
The ethos of the aristocracy as exemplified in the English Independent school greatly influenced Pierre de Coubertin.[114] The independent schools subscribed to the belief that sport formed an important part of education, an attitude summed up in the saying mens sana in corpore sano, a sound mind in a sound body. In this ethos, a gentleman was one who became an all-rounder, not the best at one specific thing. There was also a prevailing concept of fairness, in which practicing or training was considered tantamount to cheating.[114]
2:42 PM Mr. Brown
Coroebus, a cook from the city of Elis, was the first Olympic champion
A cook
Sweet
2:43 PM Mr. Blue
Well, the idea that the Olympics were for amateurs came about in the 1800's during the revival of the Olympics, but that was false; the ancient Greek athletes were, by definition, professionals that trained for their particular sport.
But Coubertin was an idiot.



10:40 AM   Mike   India blackout leaves 300 million without power = Does that mean that we are the ONLY Tech Support available?
10:47 AM   Smitty  Thanks for the laugh Mike.
10:47 AM   Don   Please no.
10:49 AM   Amy   No no!
11:44 AM   Mr. Silver  Headline - "All net and computer issues mysteriously solved after India blackout."


8:56 AM Mr. Brown
Wirefall.  Good name for a movie.
8:58 AM Mr. Silver
Sounds like a cyber thriller.
8:59 AM Mr. Amethyst
Skynet’s little brother.
9:00 AM Mr. Brown
It could be a good name for a book, too
9:04 AM Mr. Silver
Good morning Mr. Blue.
Welcome to Wirefall.
9:04 AM Mr. Blue
Guten morgen
What’s that?
9:04 AM Mr. Silver
(Points at Brown)
9:04 AM Mr. Brown
Cybernetic utopiea
9:05 AM Mr. Silver
That sounds like a bionic urinary tract...
"I can pee 30 yards with this new utopiea!"
9:06 AM Mr. Amethyst
Hahaha
9:06 AM Mr. Blue
Pinpoint precision.
9:07 AM Mr. Blue
Write your name in the snow in up to 45 font styles.
9:08 AM Mr. Amethyst
All while it plays "The Final Countdown" or up to 40 other songs, loaded via USB.
9:08 AM Mr. Silver
Includes the crowd favorite font: Dot Matrix
"Wow!  It's like a machine gun or something!"
9:09 AM Mr. Amethyst
EEEEEEEEDEEEEDEEEEEDEEEEEEEGGGGRRREEWWWWDEDOBADE..EWP...EWP....EWP...GREEEEEEDEEDOBADEEP.
That’s my representation of an old printer noise.
Man, imagine hearing that every time you went pee
9:11 AM Mr. Brown
And a modem handshake sound every time you number 2.
9:11 AM Mr. Amethyst
Nah man; you gotta get the NASA countdown for that.
9:13 AM Mr. Blue
(sings) "I'm stepping in the stall… and I'm floating in the most peculiar way-ayy"
9:13 AM Mr. Amethyst
HAHAHAHAHAHA
9:17 AM Mr. Brown
"Myyyyy shit is floating in a tin can…faaaar below my moon…"
9:19 AM Mr. Silver
I can hear Bowie singing it that way.
9:20 AM Mr. Brown
"This is Head Control to Major Tom
You’re straining very ha-ard"
9:23 AM Mr. Brown
Name of the new song: Poop Oddity
9:23 AM Mr. Silver
"Heeeere am I shitting on the ship's can...Faaaaaar from a men's rooooom...."

 
 
12:16 PM Mr. Blue
The media is really milking this shooting thing, I’d say.
It's obviously news that warrants headlines, but do we really need to learn about all the great things the people that were killed did?  Isn't it just implied that anybody dying like this is a bad thing?
Front page on CNN is a candle light vigil?  Come on.
12:21 PM Mr. Silver
"I'm Wolf Blitzer.  Now that we're finished with these 9 sad sad stories, we turn to the stories of these remaining worthless sacks of protoplasm and filth that got killed.  Take this epic douchebag named 'Tad' for instance..."
12:24 PM Mr. Amethyst
Tad’s my dad’s name :-(
12:25 PM Mr. Silver
"C and D student...played X-Box all day in the garage apartment where he's been sponging off his parents for 10 years.  The last potential he showed was as a freshman swimmer in school before he discovered pot."
12:29 PM Mr. Silver
"Let's watch a Youtube clip we found of him setting his crotch on fire and crashing at the bottom of some stone steps trying to prove his skateboard...’skillz’."
12:32 PM Mr. Silver
"Stepping over to the CNN Grief/No Loss Board, 'Tad' is our first picture under 'No Loss', but will by no means be the last."
12:55 PM Mr. Brown
There is the hair.
12:42 PM Mr. Silver
"Carrot Top sought for questioning as person of interest."
1:03 PM Mr. Silver
I'm morbidly interested in what his stupid “logic” was.
1:04 PM Mr. Brown
Yeah. I kind of want to know what he was thinking.
1:18 PM Mr. Brown
He only had one plan: kill kill and kill some more.
1:44 PM Mr. Silver
Sounds like a Chuck Norris or Stallone movie tagline
"Kill Kill and Kill
(preview voiceover) "Up against a killer, he had only one plan: Kill Kill and Kill!"
"The new film starring Sylvester Stallone and Chuck Norris."
"With Hologram Tupac and Hologram Charles Bronson"
2:23 PM Mr. Brown
And Clint Eastwood as a old man sitting in a chair
2:24 PM Mr. Silver
(Eastwood) "So you gotta ask yourself...did you give me a full serving of applesauce...or didn't you?"
(Confused guy in institutional uniform) "Look, I'm just an orderly, sir.  I just brought you the tray from the cafeteria."
2:25 PM Mr. Brown
I mean it would be cool for him to be in it, saying something like: “You young guys have no clue what you’re doing, do you?”
And that’s all he does in the movie.
Or have him walk up, throw a grenade, and blow up a whole base.
2:27 PM Mr. Blue
I’d like to see a movie completely scripted and directed by Mr. Brown, where the highlight would be Clint Eastwood literally walking up to an enemy base and throwing a grenade at a "base" and then exiting off camera... and that's the end of the scene.
2:28 PM Mr. Brown
Come on Clint, give me those squinty eyes.  I need more squinting.
2:28 PM Mr. Blue
The "base" is the villain's lair, where they're holding the world ransom, threatening to shoot the earth through the sun, boiling the oceans dry.
Patrick Dempsey plays a shirtless scientist.
2:30 PM Mr. Silver
(Dempsey) "We need to strip down and oil up."
(Eastwood) "We WHAT?"

Day 198 - Tennis Has The Requisite Equipment, The Red Newb, Fleeing Like a Rock Star, It Would Be The Best Olympics Of All Time, Smurf The Smurfing Snorks Into The Snorking Sun, "James", Does Mr. Blue Have A Tiny Casting Couch?, and Don't Drink Or Be A Kennedy & Drive

Mr. Silver
Client’s 1st name: "Tennis"
9:15 AM Mr. Brown
Last name: “Playa”
9:16 AM Mr. Silver
"Is that a man's or a woman's name?  Nevermind...Tennis has balls."



9:47 AM Mr. Brown
9:55 AM Mr. Silver
What a guy.
He'd probably suck at WWI dog-fighting simulators.
"Zis is krrrap!  Was de hell?  I schott him like thrrree towsund times!"
9:57 AM Mr. Brown
Well, he did get taken down by one shot.



8:39 AM Mr. Yellow
lol
9:03 AM Mr. Yellow
I loved how he was fleeing the cops and picked up chicks at the same time.
9:06 AM Mr. Silver
heh
9:09 AM Mr. Yellow
Now that is Rock and Roll
9:20 AM Mr. Silver
Yup
His priorities in order = mayhem, chicks, fleeing police
9:22 AM Mr. Yellow
*nod*



1:14 PM Mr. Yellow
So, Cleveland sports radio question: Can you root for Team USA when Lebron James is on it?
1:18 PM Mr. Silver
Shouldn’t you?
1:19 PM Mr. Yellow
There is a great hatred of King James here in Cleveland, and it is quite a dilemma for Clevelanders.
Not me.
I think they should not have pros play.
1:19 PM Mr. Silver
Agreed.
Also, if that's an issue in Cleveland, they need a plague to hit there or something.
1:20 PM Mr. Yellow
I know other countries started playing pros and we finally caved and put the first dream team together 20 years ago.
The Olympics should have no pro players in any sport.
1:23 PM Mr. Yellow
They also need to go back to the original Olympic rules and play in the nude, even in winter.
1:38 PM Mr. Silver
That would be nude men only.
(Original rules)
1:39 PM Mr. Yellow
No.
I want to change that rule: Women Only
1:39 PM Mr. Silver
That would be a big crowd draw.
1:39 PM Mr. Yellow
It will be the highest rated women’s sporting event of all time.
1:40 PM Mr. Silver
The All Nude Women's Olympics
1:40 PM Mr. Yellow
Look; I could live with both men and women, but I’d only be watching the women’s events.
1:40 PM Mr. Silver
"Team Showering"
1:40 PM Mr. Yellow
lol
1:40 PM Mr. Silver
"Greco-Roman Pillowfighting"
1:40 PM Mr. Yellow
Team nude car washing
1:43 PM Mr. Yellow
Couples figure skating would look like a hardcore porn.
1:45 PM Mr. Yellow
The Besti squat and the spread eagle could be joined with the back door penetrator and the double penetrator.
1:48 PM Mr. Silver
(Skating commentator) "And she swings gracefully from the double-wide leg spin into a Hamill Camel-hump."
1:52 PM Mr. Yellow
You see the possibilities.
1:52 PM Mr. Silver
In my head, there are many events.
2:59 PM Mr. Yellow
*nod*



8:28 AM Mr. Brown
Did you know the Snorks are real, just like the Smurfs?
8:29 AM Mr. Gray
Only to you, Mr. Brown.
8:29 AM Mr. Amethyst
Dude.  Snorks......horrid.
8:30 AM Mr. Silver
They lost me at "Come along with the Snorks!" as the first lyric in their song.
On the other hand, I ended up seeing a fair bit of The Smurfs over the years, and liked the recent movie. 
Snorks aint gettin' no movie.
8:31 AM Mr. Gray
Snorks were just a ripoff of Smurfs.  I hated it.
8:43 AM Mr. Amethyst
"You’re a Smurf hole, Brainy Smurf"
8:45 AM Mr. Silver
Roomie in college had this tendency to blurt out: "Smurf me Papa Smurf!  Smurf me in my Smurf hole!"
I’m not sure why...it never matched the situation we were in.
8:46 AM Mr. Amethyst
Mine had the “La La La” song on record.  He was a DJ.  He made a fantastic dance song to it one night.
8:46 AM Mr. Silver
heh
8:47 AM Mr. Amethyst
Perhaps it wasn’t as epic as I remember, but back then I was under the influence of a plant that - if you should happen to light it on fire and breathe the smoke - had some effects like happy, hungry, sleepy
8:47 AM Mr. Silver
Dopey, Doc, Sneezy and Bashful
8:48 AM Mr. Amethyst
Fantastic song.
9:01 AM Mr. Silver
Morning Mr. Blue.
Snorks vs Smurfs
9:02 AM Mr. Blue
Hey honkies
9:02 AM Mr. Silver
What up my Snorkies?
9:06 AM Mr. Brown
I just think it’s funny that the name is “Snork”, which would mean that the thing on the top of their head is a snorkel of a type, but they are never seen going to the surface to get air and they have no gills.
“On today’s episode, the Snorks all drown.”
9:10 AM Mr. Blue
Heheh
9:12 AM Mr. Gray
I try to have a decent conversation about Cryptozoology, and Mr. Brown brings up Snorks. Why am I not surprised?
9:13 AM Mr. Silver
Can a Snork be propelled at a high enough speed to pass through the sun? 
We don't know, but we're going to try to do it, one Snork at a time, until we succeed or run out of Snorks.
9:30 AM Mr. Brown
Only the orange ones.
9:42 AM Mr. Blue
"Here at the Brown Lab for Objects Passing Through the Sun, or BLOPTS, we take pride in our research.  So far we've shot a myriad of objects at the sun to see if they pass through:  a fork, a microwave, a larger fork, a plush teddy bear, a spoon and a tube of toothpaste."
9:53 AM Mr. Amethyst
9:58 AM Mr. Brown
Hmm.  The sun’s core is 150 times the density of water.
I wonder what that can be compared to, for how hard it is.
Ah, its 20 times denser than iron.
10:01 AM Mr. Silver
So you could fire George W Bush's brain through it with no problem.



10:12 AM Mr. Silver
James ... still bugs me as a name... 
What's it plural for?
Jam?  One Jam, two James?
“Exactly how many James are you?”


 
10:38 AM Mr. Blue
In a drunken stupor, I ended up posting a Craigslist ad looking for midgets in the Pittsburgh area for some unknown film project.
10:38 AM Mr. Silver
Heh
10:38 AM Mr. Blue
I’m gettin' some emails… I have to tell them that I forgot what I needed them for and I’d rather not remember.
10:40 AM Mr. Silver
I see a nearly all-midget cast doing "Snow White and the Seven Giants"
10:42 AM Mr. Blue
I believe it involved Rule 34.
10:44 AM Mr. Amethyst
.... *slowly walks backward out of room*



3:04 PM Mr. Blue
Can we ban all Kennedys from driving cars?
3:51 PM Mr. Silver
(cop) "License, registration and proof of genealogy, sir."
(Driver, heavy Massachusetts accent) "Whot do you need thaht faw?"
(cop) "Uh huh...Step out of the ‘cah’, please..."
3:53 PM Mr. Amethyst
lol
3:54 PM Mr. Gray
“Let’s see...smashed into a bridge....bottles falling out of the car....possible dead body in the back seat. Sir, are you a Kennedy? (runs license) Yup, Kennedy…Hands on the hood please.  We've had enough of your family's foolishness.”
3:55 PM Mr. Blue
"Come ahn officah!  I'm tryin' tah get to the ayuh-po't!" 
"Airport?!  You Kennedys don't know when to quit do you!"
3:55 PM Mr. Gray
LMAO
3:56 PM Mr. Blue
All Kennedys must resort to traveling by bicycles equipped with flashing lights so they can be easily identified.
