Mr.
Silver
I'll
see what happens if I paste this...
Jesus
is Krishna, according to some
Mr.
Brown
Right
They
try to say there is no evidence of him, however there is a string of
stuff through multiple cultures if somebody actually looks.
Also,
though, there is a good chance that some was taken from other people.
“Hey
that Buddha guy...he did some good stuff. Lets throw that in there.”
Honestly,
what is wrong with taking a lot of the good stuff from a bunch of
teachers and putting it together?
Mr.
Silver
Not
very Christian of you, you know.
"Instead
he says early Christians drew upon the beliefs and rituals of other
cults and faiths around in the first century."
...because
no
other faith ever did that...
It's
kind of how it works.
Mr.
Blue
We
know someone named Jesus didn't exist at that time
Yeshua
did
Or
may have
Nazareth
is a made up place too
Mr.
Silver
I
fully expect that The Force and the Flying Spaghetti Monster will get
mentions in future texts.
So
is "The Island" in Butler. There's no island in Butler,
but they call the crappy section that.
Hell
was the nickname of a bad neighborhood in Jerusalem, I think
(looks
up)
Mr.
Blue
Colin
Quinn bit:
Jesus:
"Where are you taking me?"
Centurion:
"Golgotha."
"What
does that mean?"
"Place
of the skulls."
"...not
good"
Mr.
Silver
Heh
(Jewish
mom) "You kids better settle or I'm going to send you to Gehenna
to get groceries!"
Ms.
Rose
My
very limited reading on the meaning of colors in dreams has shown
evidence that red is a very popular color for end-of-times/disaster
type dreams. You'd think love dreams would feature red. Not always
the case. Red is SCARY when you're in Slumberland.
Mr.
Silver
I'd
get scared enough in some nightmares I'd try to talk but couldn't
Not
something I do now
I
used to have 3 recurring bad ones: not able to stop a car no matter
how hard I'd push the brake. Like I could get it to a very slow roll,
but never stop. Of course, if I let go I'd speed up to dangerous...no
escape.
Mr.
Blue
I
do that one a lot too... the wonky brakes
Slam
the pedal and you just kinda slow
Mr.
Silver
I
beat that by actually learning to drive.
Mr.
Blue
Also
the car that is too small for me to get into
Mr.
Silver
Yeah,
had weirdly small cars in some of those too.
#2
is the "hurt and trapped in a cave".
I
beat "hurt and trapped in a cave" by getting hurt and
trapped in a cave...while in a cave proving that I would not get hurt
and trapped in a cave.
Mr.
Blue
heh
Mr.
Silver
Oh
the irony
Mr.
Blue
I
beat the repeat high school dreams by going to the HS and picking up
my diploma in the dream.
Those
got old
Mr.
Silver
That
was #3
Mr.
Blue
"Why
am I still here? I'm 29, I graduated 10 years ago and I have a full
time job."
Mr.
Silver
I
won by walking out. It was a triumph. I still love remembering
Mr.
Blue
If
I have another I just walk out... If that's the starting point for a
dream, I'm like "not this again" and I go to the parking
lot and drive away.
I'm
always at the intermediate or junior high.. never senior high.
Mr.
Silver
I've
never had a school dream since, actually
That
being said, I've walked around the not-real version of State College
quite a few times.
Never
for class though
Ms.
Rose
The
only period where I ever had bad, scary school dreams was when I was
about to graduate college and I was convinced I didn't have enough
credits. I honestly wasn't 100% sure until I physically touched my
diploma. I kept thinking *something* was going to go wrong, and I'd
be disgraced in front of my elitist private all-girls college mates.
Mr.
Silver
The
fear of the old "graduation requirements have changed"
trick, eh?
Ms.
Rose
Well,
but I had good reason. I went from a straight-A, extracurricular
wonder-girl my freshman year (no boyfriend) to barely squeaking by
with Ds and never visiting campus by my senior year (overbearing
boyfriend who devalued collegiate activities).
Boys
are like, WAY more important than grades and stuff. *pfft* TOTALLY.
*flips hair*
I
(barely) graduated college in 20XX. Today's student loan debt total:
approximately $56k. I will die before Girl University is paid off.
Mr.
Silver
"Our
records show you still have money and we want it. Therefore we've
added an additional math requirement and your one psychology course
has changed from a 400 to a survey. Please buy a $200 math book and
$80 psych book your professors won't really use. See you next Fall!"
Mr.
Blue
Heheh
Ms.
Rose
Thankfully
the math professor was ahead of her time, and utilized the interwebs
for all our assignments. That "fluff" Art History course,
on the other hand? $273 textbook, weighing more than a few
freshwomen, requiring a special backpack just to carry it.
I
still have it. Makes a great coffee table book. (As long as you
didn't buy the coffee table at Ikea.)
For
coffee tables whittled out of a solid chunk of oak...
Mr.
Blue
Hahah
The
ol' college textbook scam. They're $200 brand new and if you try to
re-sell them back they're $15 despite gentle usage
Mr.
Silver
Yup
Mr.
Gray had to shell out $400 for one out of his $700 school budget
(math
book)
Ms.
Rose
I
never sold mine back. And I never bought used. If I was going to
shirk my college experience just to find a boyfriend, then you're
damn right he was going to carry those gigantic boxes of books
upstairs when I moved in.
If
any of you wish to borrow the Complete Works of Shakespeare: Volume
VII, or the Abbreviated British Authors: Series Twelve...just bring a
trolley to work and let me know!
The
pages in the Shakespeare book are sooooo thin, you can't highlight
anything, or use a pencil, or touch the book with questionably-clean
fingers.
Mr.
Blue
Maybe
if I need kindling
Ms.
Rose
Ouch.
Mr.
Blue
Shakespeare
Poopoo-er University alumn here
Mr.
Silver
I
assume the complete works of Shakespeare includes stuff not in other
complete works of Shakespeare
I
mean...he wrote a good bit and all...but how did they put together 7
volumes on onionskin?
Somewhere
I have a small red book that has every play and sonnet in it, I
believe
Ms.
Rose
The
37-lb. Complete Works of Shakespeare includes EVERYTHING he ever
wrote...even words discovered on toilet paper in The Globe outhouses.
Mr.
Blue
It
includes his tax records and shopping lists
Mr.
Silver
"Dearest
Landlord, While it is, in troth, a fortnight past the date my monthly
lodging fee is due..."
Mr.
Blue
An
angry letter he penned to the local constable because some teens
sullied his flower garden
Ms.
Rose
There's
a ton of pages full of stuff they don't even know that he wrote.
Like, words from "scholars" and such who paid as much for
their education as I did, and will NEVER have to work hourly!
Mr.
Silver
"To
the blatherskite and company who convinced me that my solar could be
well painted for a fee of only 4 p, a letter of protest..."
Ms.
Rose
I
should totally write a long, accurate Shakespearean letter to the
uppers at Girl U. And ship it along with my very large textbook.
“Dear
sirs (Oh, wait. There are no "sirs." I kid.)”
Mr.
Silver
"Herein,
postage due, you will find The Complete Works of Everything Written
by and About Shakespeare..."
"Of
particular scholarly interest is the following passage from an
anonymous writer: 'My neighbor, the pompous wordsmith and great ass,
hath again been caught relieving himself in my rainbarrel after a
night of frivolity with a local trollop. How his wife tolerates his
knavery is beyond the patience of Heaven."
Ms.
Rose
HAHAHAHA
Mr.
Blue
"Cry
nosy neighbor! and let slip mine foot into thine ass"
Ms.
Rose
LOL
*tears*
Geez,
yinz know more about Shakespeare than I do!
Have
you all been reading the Collected Works?
Ms.
Rose
Tuna
fish and popcorn for lunch. It's definitely payday.
Mr.
Silver
"It's
a Charlie Brown Payday!"
Ms.
Rose
Woman
with Giant Student Loan Debt makes interesting culinary combinations.
Film at 11.
Mr.
Silver
(Peppermint
Patty) "Tuna? Popcorn? Where's the Turkey sandwich? Where's the
chips? Where's the salad, Chuck?"
(Charlie)
"Shut up, I'm broke."
Ms.
Rose
If
only I had a yellow bird to help me make stacks of toast...
Mr.
Silver
Ah...dreams
of fresh bread...
"This
is all dry loaf heels, Chuck!"
"I
put mustard on them!"
"Mustard
not butter?"
"I
still HAD mustard!"
Ms.
Rose
(Franklin,
the sole person of color in Charlie Brown) Damn, Chuck. This is a
CLASSY. Got any watermelon for Easter?
Mr.
Silver
The
following has been noticed for modern non-racist viewers
Mr.
Blue
And
he's in the hammock style chair... to imply laziness
Mr.
Silver
It's
also the one that collapses dangerously
Mr.
Blue
Is
home plate a right angle in baseball?
Like
between 1st and 3rd
Mr.
Amethyst
I
think
Maybe
not
IDK
Ms.
Rose
I
know nothing about baseball. But I thought the "diamond"
was a perfect square. Tiny woman brain?
Mr.
Silver
I
believe it's a perfect square, ma'am
"Well
fans it's a great day for baseball! The Pirates are heading out to
the lozenge for the start of the season and it'll be bad news for the
Padre's in Pittsburgh!"
"I'm
kinda liking the new layout, Bob."
"Yeah...much
better than last season's parallelogram."
"It's
kind of interesting seeing the center fielder standing right behind
Second base."
Ms.
Rose
If
you can, swing by Pittsburgh Popcorn on Liberty Ave. (If you leave
Pamela's and drive through town, it's like *right there* on Liberty.
You can blow $50 on gourmet popcorn and not think twice...
Mr.
Blue
Oh
yeah, I heard of that place
Mr.
Silver
I
am unable to blow $50 on 10 cents of popcorn, BTW
Ms.
Rose
Anyone
can blow $50 on popcorn. Trust me.
Mr.
Silver
Is
the popcorn merely a minor ingredient in something else?
Mr.
Amethyst
Butter
salad
Mr.
Blue
I
think it's popcorn with crazy flavors
Ms.
Rose
They
deep-fry the popcorn in heroin and then dust it with crack cocaine.
It's *that* delicious.
Mr.
Silver
It's
not that I don't like popcorn
In
fact I rather do if it's new. But I can't do possibly-weeks-stale
cheese-powdered popcorn in a bag like some snackers can.
Ms.
Rose
I
really don't care for popcorn either. But you walk past the place
every single day and eventually you're going to try some popcorn.
Then it's all over. They've got you hooked.
Mr.
Silver
I
dunno...it's like my problem with pasta.
I
go to a restaurant and there's a whole menu section of pasta...
$13
to $20 pasta
I
realize that it's the sauces and presentation.
But
I also know that the wet bread underneath is worth about 12 cents.
And
that's a serving of GOOD noodles
Mr.
Amethyst
Now
I want pasta....SILVER!
Ms.
Rose
Anything
is delicious enough and addicting enough if the restaurant peoples
sprinkle it with enough narcotics. They think we don't know...
Every
time you get a coupon in the mail for some "new" flavor of
pizza, all it means is that Papa John's ordered a little too much
angel dust this month and they need to move their inventory.
Mr.
Silver
That
bizarre cheeseburger pizza they did twice now was great. Missed the
second round by a day
Mr.
Amethyst
STOP
I want pizza now! lol
Ms.
Rose
Our
local Pizza Hut sent around ads declaring that they'll now deliver
beer with your pizza. Expect to pay double for a six-pack. But hey,
alcohol shows up at your door! They probably don't even card!
Dis
is 'merica!
Mr.
Amethyst
And
now I want beer...
You
guys
Are
EVIL
Ms.
Rose
Glad
to be of service, Mr. Amethyst.
Mr.
Amethyst
Ms.
Rose
*horns*
Mr.
Amethyst
lol
Mr.
Blue
I've
tuned them out
