19 Oct 09 - 02:58 PM (#2748125) Subject: RE: BS: I play dumb and usually get away with it From: gnu Garg.... I am so honoured. First, let me say it is an honour just to be nominated. And, of course, I would be remiss if I didn't thank those that helped me along the way, like Garg hisselfishness. I'd continue, but, until the acceptence speech, I don't spoil any surprises. I am gushing with pride! |

19 Oct 09 - 04:21 PM (#2748196) Subject: RE: BS: I play dumb and usually get away with it From: Little Hawk So, Mrzzy...um....which men DO you date? ;-) (Frenchmen are reputed to be quite intelligent. Just a suggestion. Canadian men on the other hand seem to vary from quite intelligent to not so intelligent to dumb as a post. The dumb-as-a-post ones are quite easy to spot, and you can find them in the evening at sports bars. The more intelligent ones are harder to spot.) BillD - Not only are you not dumb...you're probably too smart for your own good! ;-D |

19 Oct 09 - 06:03 PM (#2748274) Subject: RE: BS: I play dumb and usually get away with it From: Mrrzy Actually, I have to admit to never really "dating" (which is SO American it's kinda funny), I just kinda go to bed with whom I please (or should that be with whom I'd like to please?)... which also upsets American men, apparently you're also supposed to play hard to get. But I grew up thinking of sex as a normal, everyday behavior! |

20 Oct 09 - 11:59 AM (#2748749) Subject: RE: BS: I play dumb and usually get away with it From: GREEN WELLIES Sometimes when another is trying to be smart at your expense, playing dumb has its advantages. Last weekend at new feed merchants, surrounded by smart-ass farmers, I asked 'do you deliver', yes said the so called salesman, 'and chicken, and beef', I just said 'Uh, but do you deliver'. Now who looked stupid. |

What do YOU think it looks like?
This is one of the oldest of "chalk-board" adolescent jokes.
You are supposed to post the ANSI - 180 degrees the opposite direction for a light bulb....
Sincerely,
This direction - it looks EXACTLY as I stated....playing dumb ...works ... expecially if you are blond. |

22 Oct 09 - 12:56 PM (#2750362) Subject: RE: BS: I play dumb and usually get away with it From: VirginiaTam True the Ascii Art light bulb does look as Gargle said, but he did not have to say "Is that a self portrait." That was the nasty mean spirited bit. And if he does not recognise it, then he is the dumb one. |
