blah blah blah

Do you use it? I use it alot. I think it is one of the finest verbal inventions of our time. Imagine for a minute having to listen to everything that blah blah blah represents.

For me it is explaining how come I wear a Yankee cap when I have been a Red Sox fan all my life. In that story blah blah blah represents all the frustration and horror of the 1986 Game Six against the New York Mets. I like to express it every once in a while just to get the taste back and it does make me feel better, but I don't want to have to explain it everytime I tell someone about the hat and I don't want to quit wearing it, because ever since I have started wearing it (when the Yankees beat the Mariners in the 2001 postseason) the Yankees have not won a World Series.

And before I get pelted with a ton of anti-Red Sox flames I luv Bernie Williams. He's my fave player on the Yankees blah blah blah what's yours?

5. Kinda like "whatever"...

and "here we go again" and "same old crap" and blah blah blah... hehehehe

:loveya: back

have you ever tried that Ben and Jerry's "everything but the..." loaded with chocolate and all kinds of cool stuff like Heath Bar chunks and blah blah blah.

It's kinda like that Seinfeld yada yada yada... but yada yada is much funnier then blah blah. More musical sounding too...

6. Wouldn't it be cool...

if we could implant chips in our head that when what you were hearing something that you didn't like the chip would break in and give you the stock reports or tell you a funny joke instead or make it feel like you were right in the middle of having the best sex you ever had in your whole life... of course that could get embarrasing...

(green whiners?/ dem loyalist?)
