Subject: BS: Innocuous From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 29 Apr 05 - 08:20 PM With all the controversial threads around here, I thought I'd start one that was completely innocuous. It's what I do best. Innocuous? How about Kool-Aid? Or Wonder Bread? Or Britney Spears? Jerry |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Ebbie Date: 29 Apr 05 - 08:47 PM Innocuous? Or inane? *G* |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Bill D Date: 29 Apr 05 - 09:04 PM Is Britney Spears one of the bodies Wonder Bread built in 12 ways? Didn't Rev. Jim Jones use Kool-aid to poison his followers in Guiana? gee, Jerry...you see how hard it is to remain innocuous these days? |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Bobert Date: 29 Apr 05 - 09:09 PM Either way... Tomato sammichs in late summer when the tomatoes is hangin' ripe on the vines... Yup, a bunch of mayo and lots o' salt and pepper and, geeze o man, if that ain't good eats.... (But, Bobert, that ain't all that innocuously inane?) Okay, nevermind, I 'll have the tomato sammich and you can have... ...the pack of Melba milk toast crackers.... Bobert |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: SINSULL Date: 29 Apr 05 - 09:17 PM Is there anything more comforting than a jar of mayo and a loaf of Wonder Bread with red yellow and blue balloons printed on the wrapper. Helps build strong bodies (and wide hips) twelve ways! Never was a Kool-Aid fan and Britney gags me with a spoon. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Sorcha Date: 29 Apr 05 - 09:27 PM But, is Britney pork,bacon, teetoataler, pagan, or vegan??? And is she preggers or not?? |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: GUEST, Eb Date: 29 Apr 05 - 10:05 PM Bill D, you read entirely too much. How about a toasty nest filled with squirming milk-breath puppies? |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 29 Apr 05 - 10:22 PM I was in Nocuous once. It was in the Tampa Bay area if I remember correctly, but I'm not 100% sure. I forgot I had been there just as soon as I left. Had to be the most bland, boring town in the country. Nothing special about it at all. Just a big strip mall. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Amos Date: 30 Apr 05 - 12:26 AM Me I think Wonder Bread is an industrial toxic waste, Give me two slices of seven-grain lined with organic Peanut Butter and a big glass of milk any day! A |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Bunnahabhain Date: 30 Apr 05 - 05:15 AM Innocuous is improbable round here, and far too hard to spell. I've never had Wonder bread, but the first law of names* says it will be far from wonderful. *If it needs to proclaim a virtue in its name, it lacks that virtue. For instance, the democratic peoples paradise of pick-a-third-world-dictaitorship, or the silent Bodhran. Bunnahabhain |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Dave Hanson Date: 30 Apr 05 - 05:48 AM Thick Brit question, what is kool aid ? I imagine it's some sort of drink but we don't have it in the UK. eric |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: gnu Date: 30 Apr 05 - 07:10 AM Correct eric. Just mix the magic crystals with water and, for pennies a serving, you can wire your kids on sugar all day... or feed them some kind of sugar substitute which may or may not cause cancer in lab rats. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Blissfully Ignorant Date: 30 Apr 05 - 07:30 AM Is it like Creamola foam? |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 30 Apr 05 - 07:56 AM Coke has crossed the ocean, but apparently Kool-Aid hasn't. It's a cheap powdered drink. Just add water and kids. More teetering on the brink of innocuous: Paul McCartney Rod Stewart Innocuous bliss: peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on white bread (can even been Wonder Bread.) Same with grilled cheese sandwiches made with processed American cheese and white bread.) The white bread has to be so air-filled that you can compress a whole slice into a small ball. Jerry |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Blissfully Ignorant Date: 30 Apr 05 - 08:11 AM What about bellyybutton fluff? It's fairly.... innockyou...... nnokyoi...inoccous.... well, whatever it is. It is. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 30 Apr 05 - 08:15 AM And most of the belly button nymphet pop singers who are completely interchangeable except for maybe Avril Lavigne. Jerry |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Blissfully Ignorant Date: 30 Apr 05 - 08:19 AM Avril Lavigne....dontcha just want to tuck her up in bed with a mug of cocoa and a hot water bottle? She's like a lost puppy - cute and irritating in equal measures, and would probably piss on your floor if you didn't keep an eye on her. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: kendall Date: 30 Apr 05 - 09:11 AM White bread? there is more nutrition in the wrapper! |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: GUEST,Bill the Collie Date: 30 Apr 05 - 09:43 AM Wasn't there an old Sorry I'll Read That Again song that went something like We love you Julie Andrews You're as nice as T.C.P. And many thanks to Blissful for the remembrance of Creamola Foam! |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: GUEST Date: 30 Apr 05 - 11:53 AM Here's a challenge for you. Start a thread in the BS section that is so boring NO ONE else will post to it. I'll bet you can't do it. It would be too easy in the Music section. Just ask for the lyrics of some currently popular pop (non-folk) song. But please don't do that. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Metchosin Date: 30 Apr 05 - 12:39 PM Didn't Blake Edwards once describe his ex-wife, Julie Andrews, as having "lilacs for pubic hair". |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Bill D Date: 30 Apr 05 - 12:47 PM did you ever do the cockroach test? Put a slice of **Wonder Bread** and a slice of good, whole-grain bread in a dark cupboard where roaches are known to hang out....wait an hour, then pop the door open and note how the tiny little critters know enough to eat the good stuff! Yeah, they'll eat wallpaper paste if they have to, but they KNOW! Peanut butter & jelly on bleached white bread is a 'treat' I have not had for ....ummmm...40+years now. (I dunno...maybe the last time I had a Budweiser beer) |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 30 Apr 05 - 01:26 PM Gee, Bill: Maybe I'll have to mail you a PB & J sandwich. When I was a ravenous teenager, I'd eat anything I could chew and swallow, and when we ran out of jelly, I made peanut butter and Miracle Whip sandwiches. Not getting all nostalgic about that... As for a thread so boring no one will post to it, forget it. Someone would post to say that they aren't going to post to it.. :-) Jerry |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Donuel Date: 30 Apr 05 - 01:31 PM Brittany Spears is more vacuous than innocuous http://www.angelfire.com/md2/customviolins/spears.jpg |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Stilly River Sage Date: 30 Apr 05 - 03:48 PM I don't think Julie is Blake's ex. I think they're still together. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Stilly River Sage Date: 30 Apr 05 - 03:58 PM Julie Andrews, Blake Edwards, and the lilac quote are covered here. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Bill D Date: 30 Apr 05 - 04:20 PM now, let's not be making fun of Britney, just because she causes young boys to step on their tongues! She is really quite talented. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Bill D Date: 30 Apr 05 - 04:23 PM why, she even has been accorded status usually accorded to Nobel Prize class thinkers |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Ebbie Date: 30 Apr 05 - 04:53 PM Why I had no idea! |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Georgiansilver Date: 30 Apr 05 - 05:14 PM Peace, Love, brotherhood (sisterhood), friendship, care, sensitivity, responsibility, goodness, encouragement, fellowship......need I say more? Best wishes, Mike. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 30 Apr 05 - 10:57 PM Hey, Mike: Didn't understand that post. Are you saying that all the items in your list... brotherhood, friendship, care, etc. are innocuous? :-) Jerry |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Ebbie Date: 30 Apr 05 - 11:31 PM "in·noc·u·ous ( i-nok ' yu-?s ) adj. Having no adverse effect; harmless. Not likely to offend or provoke to strong emotion; insipid." Perhaps Mike was thinking more in terms of 'innocent'? It would be nice to think all of those lovely emotions and attributes were universally prized though. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: frogprince Date: 01 May 05 - 12:10 AM So have you ever heard anything referred to as "ocuous"? |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Ebbie Date: 01 May 05 - 01:49 AM Not even 'out'ocuous, curiously enough. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: GUEST,Bill the Collie Date: 01 May 05 - 02:21 AM I think HHHHaitch from Steps was ocuous |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Georgiansilver Date: 01 May 05 - 04:31 AM Yes Jerry in effect. Best wishes,Mike. |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: beardedbruce Date: 01 May 05 - 06:45 AM "Peace, Love, brotherhood (sisterhood), friendship, care, sensitivity, responsibility, goodness, encouragement, fellowship......" "in·noc·u·ous ( i-nok ' yu-?s ) adj. Having no adverse effect; harmless. Not likely to offend or provoke to strong emotion; insipid." *******provoke to strong emotion********* I would hope that these DID provoke strong emotions! 8-{E |

Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: matai Date: 01 May 05 - 07:45 AM And I thought it was some kind of injection. (-: |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 01 May 05 - 09:31 AM If you have innocuous friendships Mike, you're hanging around with the wrong people.. Jerry |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: Don(Wyziwyg)T Date: 01 May 05 - 12:03 PM The most innocuous thing ever, in the whole universe:- Belgium. Now we can close this one, it's served its purpose. DT |
Subject: RE: BS: Innocuous From: gnu Date: 01 May 05 - 03:01 PM "...whirlwind...". If it was ye, Spaw, that'd have to be a hurricane. |
