26 Apr 05 - 05:23 PM (#1471683) Subject: RE: BS: The Daddy of all BS threads From: Raggytash I'll have to defer to your greater knowledge I've never heard them, does anyone else have an earwitness account of Rabbits singing, sober or drunk |
26 Apr 05 - 05:25 PM (#1471685) Subject: RE: BS: The Daddy of all BS threads From: Once Famous bugs bunny was a rabbit, I mean wabbit. He always sang and was never drunk. Of course he wasn't ever portrayed as Irish I believe. |

26 Apr 05 - 05:52 PM (#1471718) Subject: RE: BS: The Daddy of all BS threads From: Once Famous He could have been drunk. Bugs was a great hero of the politically correct you know. Probably more than half of his cartoons aren't shown anymore for fear of offending some sensitive whiners. |
26 Apr 05 - 05:53 PM (#1471721) Subject: RE: BS: The Daddy of all BS threads From: Amos I am sorry to say that cheap imitations are....well, cheap! You guys need to read the whole MOAB thread to learn the style of quality BS; it is the only way you will build up any momentum. This stuff is thin gruel, watered-down, limp-wristed sissy-man, half-baked, transvestite, ill-conceived, maundering, diffuse, unfocused, wimpy, amateur B.S. It won't last if it isn't dramatically upgraded in quality in the next ten or twenty entries, I regret to inform you . This is my professional opinion as one of the major BSers in these parts. I am willing however to provide a substantive post-by-post critique to give you a more informed analysis of what is missing and how you might correct those defects, for a small fee. If interested, apply by PM with a brief explanation of why you feel called or qualified to generate quality B.S., and what true B.S. means to you. A |

27 Apr 05 - 07:03 AM (#1472157) Subject: RE: BS: The Daddy of all BS threads From: GUEST,Mingulay at work I could never get the hang of wheelbarrow. It looks innocuous enough just standing there as a barrow with a wheel so why should I have trouble with it. I can say it mentally without difficulty over and over again, it's when it hits the lips that things go wrong. Throat muscles tighten, sphincter muscles relax and it comes out as a half strangulated fart. Using a wheelbarrow is not a problem neither is thinking about them or even fixing broken ones, it's just saying that bloody word. Buying one is totally embarrassing involving the use of paper, pencils and crude hieroglyphics. I'll stick to a trolley from now on. |

27 Apr 05 - 12:27 PM (#1472460) Subject: RE: BS: The Daddy of all BS threads From: Amos Sigh... no, I am sorry. It won't do. Look. True B.S. appears as effortless as rain, showing no signs of creative sweat. You have certainly got that half right. But True B.S. i like the intellect of steel clothed in the velvet glove of apparent mindlessness. It has subtle or soaring architecture, finesse, tension and balance. It must reveal the depth of its origins without losing its shallow sheen. It must resonate, and implicate, true cultural importance. It has well springs of deep human concern and understanding, which must play a quiet counter-point to its specious apparent form. Otherwise it is hollow and trite. Without that other half, the meretricious dung-crumbs that amateurs provide is mere drivel, the noise of shoppers. A |

I have heard her sing, but I will not reveal for the moment whether drunk or sober. Come to that is the drunk or sober in reference to the hearer, or to the rabbit? |
