I applied to be bleachers7 "boo" and he turned me down....

[JimmyJazz]

I don't even really know what a "boo" is or what a "boo" is supposed to do, but I wasn't doing anything else and it sounded remotely interesting, but apparently, it's a "no go." Boo Hoo :cry:

Please pause for a moment and feel sorry for me. Thanks.

[progmom]

1. Hey - I applied too

And I didn't even get the courtesy of a response.

And hey - how come you thought you could be bleachers' boo? I thought you were employed by sundog as his h**g?


(edited to change offending word back to sundog's original spelling in the job description)

[JimmyJazz]

2. "h**g" is such an ugly word - "boo" sounded so much nicer..

I had images of us running hand in hand through a meadow of wild flowers, wearing his and hers t-shirts at the amusement park, going to the beach and posing for one of those "antique" photos - him with a fake rifle and chaps, me with my whiskey bottle and garter belt.... alas, it was all a pipe dream. :cry:

[progmom]

5. so who did he pick to be his boo?

I feel so....rejected.

[JimmyJazz]

8. Me too. Hey, do you wanna be my "boo?" - I could be yours!

I still get to wear the garter belt in the antique photo, though.

[progmom]

10. It's a deal!

Excellent! I look awesome in chaps!

[Renew Deal]

16. lol

This could have been us.

[sundog]

3. you cheating on me again?

:cry:

:P

[JimmyJazz]

4. No sweetie - this is different. Really!

You know I love you best! I just thought it would be nice to be somebody's "boo" - but alas, struck down again :P

[miss_kitty]

6. WTF is a 'boo?'

and you know, I see no mention of clubbing all night and dishing...maybe your skills aren't up to bleacher 7's high standards! :P

And please-I thought I was the official DU pity party mascot

[progmom]

13. Nope Miss Kitty

Not only does JimmyJazz have more posts than you, gets more attention than you, now she's the new pity party mascot.

How bad do you feel now?

[miss_kitty]

17. wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

:cry:

[FuzzySlippers]

24. Oh miss_kitty!

I noticed that in fewer than six months you've racked up 6088 posts. That's truly impressive! The only reason JJ has more is that she's such an attention whore.

[JimmyJazz]

28. I am not an attention whore! I post threads - neither of

you do except on the rare occasion. Trust me, when skinner asks you to take attendance for him, you'll rack up the posts!

[miss_kitty]

33. do you have a copy of the 'memo' that asked you to take attendance

If so, I'd like to see it...:P

[JimmyJazz]

36. My dog ate it.

:P

[miss_kitty]

42. Hey my dog ate my voters registration card on Sunday-first time

she's ever chewed on something that was not hers.

Jeez-I hope she's not a Thug.

[miss_kitty]

38. well maybe more obvious about it-

I'm the kinda gal who wants attention, but doesn't wanna hafta throw on a tight mini, a pair of 4" Candies and throw on a bunch of slap (English slang for makeup) to get it. I think people should be drawn naturally to my sparkling wit and biting sense of humour...

[FuzzySlippers]

43. Me too.

I don't think we should have to dress like sluts to get some attention around here. If JJ wants to do that, well, that's her perogative.

[JimmyJazz]

50. Um.. what are you trying to say? I thought that was standard

lounge posting attire - you mean I hafta change my clothes, too?

[JimmyJazz]

15. I already said that I don't know what a boo is, but it does sound

a bit intriguing, doesn't it. I have a feeling it doesn't involve selecting china patterns, though. :hi:

[miss_kitty]

19. I know. i saw that AFTER I typed in my subject line

but i am too tired and lazy to change things around

And. of course, too busy feeling sorry for myself!

[Renew Deal]

22. Someone will be your boo someday.

You never know.

[FuzzySlippers]

7. I didn't even know he was taking applications.

You think I got a shot at the gig?

[JimmyJazz]

11. I dunno - apparently me and progmom aren't boo material...

so, if you gots sumpin we don't, I say go for it! :hi: May the better "boo" win!

[Renew Deal]

25. FuzzySlippers is my boo!

:loveya:

[FuzzySlippers]

29. Yeah! I got the gig!

Now :wtf: is a boo?

[Renew Deal]

40. Start here

http://www.mtv.com/bands/az/usher/audvid.jhtml

[miss_kitty]

44. Goddammit it's one of those sites that can't detect my WMP 10

then causes my FF browser to shut down.:grr:

On Edie: so it plays on the Avant Browser...

[JimmyJazz]

30. You didn't even fill out the application and you got to be the boo!

Dammit all to hades and back. I guess I'll just go back to being sundog's hag.... :P

[Renew Deal]

9. lol

Don't feel bad. I haven't look at the applications yet. I just think you should know. I'm a playa. Don't be hatin on me.

[JimmyJazz]

12. Too late for you! I'm sundog's hag and progmom's boo -

apparently there are some others on this thread interested in being your boo - but you can just rip up my application! :P

BTW - you missed out on a good boo, if I do say so myself!

[Renew Deal]

20. damn

:cry:

[sundog]

14. link...

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x2557783

This explains everything. Now it all makes sense.

[JimmyJazz]

18. Are you implying that I don't make sense???

dork.

[sundog]

21. no, the thread clearly explains the meaning of 'boo'

It is a beacon of clarity.

[JimmyJazz]

26. He doesn't exactly define it in his thread either - it is a rather

ambiguous word. :P

[miss_kitty]

23. You forgot the $20

:evilgrin:

[JimmyJazz]

31. Now I'm paying people to be my friends???

BTW - did you get that last check I sent?

[sundog]

27. I know what BOO is

and I will tell you if you ask nicely :7

[JimmyJazz]

32. I'll send more tasteykakes to my little Tasteykake, if that would help.

:9

[progmom]

34. Hey sundog

Could you please tell me what a Boo is?

[JimmyJazz]

35. If he tells you without the requisite tasteykake bribe, we're through.

you can be the hag and I'll find another boo. (insert gratitious photo of pouting hottie)

[progmom]

37. well let's just see what a Boo is

Before we go making any hasty Tasteykake decisions here, hmmmmm?

So does that mean that you're still his h**g and my boo?

[sundog]

49. no, I'm just trying to incite a riot

:P

[JimmyJazz]

51. You copied that smiley from me! It is a good one, too!

Now if only I could get you to post the popcorn eating smiley in the middle of a GD flame war - you could be my permanent boo.

[progmom]

...and I'll post it.

Anything to be your permanent boo.

[FuzzySlippers]

and here's the lyrics to the Usher song:

"My Boo"
(feat. Alicia Keys)



There's always that one person
That will always have your heart
You'll never see it coming
Cause you're blinded from the start
Know that you're that one for me
It's clear for everyone to see
Ooh baby ooh you'll always be my boo



I don't know bout cha'll
But I know about us and uh
This is the only way
We know how to rock
I don't know bout cha'll
But I know about us and uh
This is the only way
We know how to rock



Do you remember girl
I was the one who gave you your first kiss
Cause I remember girl
I was the one who said put your lips like this
Even before all the fame and
People screaming your name
Girl I was there when you were my baby



It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taking over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo


I was in love with you when we were younger
You were mine my boo
And I see it from time to time
I still feel like my boo
And I can see it no matter
How I try to hide my boo
Even though there's another man who's in my life
You will always be my boo



Yes I remember boy
Cause after we kissed
I could only think about your lips
Yes I remember boy
The moment I knew you were the one
I could spend my life with
Even before all the fame
And people screaming your name
I was there and you were my baby



It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taking over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo


I was in love with you when we were younger
You were mine my boo
And I see it from time to time
I still feel like my boo
And I can see it no matter
How I try to hide my boo
Even though there's another man who's in my life
You will always be my boo


My oh, My oh, My oh, My oh, My Boo


My oh, My oh, My oh, My oh, My Boo



It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taking over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo



I don't know bout cha'll
But I know about us and uh
This is the only way
We know how to rock
I don't know bout cha'll
But I know about us and uh
This is the only way
We know how to rock

48. That's so sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!

Now, I'm gonna cry :cry: -- and much better than sundog's definition.
