I just hid the kudzu thread

[Oeditpus Rex]

:bounce:

You may well ask, "What took you so long?"

:blush:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

1. You can hide it, but it will always be there.

I really just want to get the thread to 666 posts.

[Oeditpus Rex]

Ah, but I subscribe

to the Kurt Vonnegutism that without awareness, nothing can exist.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

14. So does our fat stupid cat.

If he puts his head under something, the "scary" thing can't see his 17lb ass hanging out.

[swag]

2. Did a certain horrified fascination have anything to do with your delay,

or was it all about personal inertia?

And what do you your smilies mean?

[Oeditpus Rex]

9. That second thing

I saw it and elected this time to be ert.

The smilies can be explained thus:

:bounce: — I'm happy that I hid it.

:blush: — I'm a bit embarrassed that it took me this long.

[swag]

12. You had your President Nixon. You had the bills you had to pay.

You even had yesterday.

No need to be embarrassed. Point is you finally got the job done.

[Whoa_Nelly]

3. Wise move

You did the right thing! :thumbsup:

[KitchenWitch]

4. I have been blissfully free of the kudzu thread for weeks

I can't believe it is still around.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

10. I suspect it may partially be my fault.

:evilgrin:

[KitchenWitch]

19. LOL

No kudzu in MN, at least according to the map!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

21. I'm an idiot. I replied to my comment instead of yours. nt

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

20. According to the other map, none in NJ either.

Probably if we have it, it's down in South Jersey. South Jersey is an entirely seperate state and I want nothing to do with it. Ugh.

[Random_Australian]

24. Found you! I knew you could not hide forever!

*pulls out nightstick* *warms up for capoeira*

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

25. I wasn't hiding! I was training!

*grabs bo*

[Random_Australian]

26. Training? Who trains by running away and cowering in the forest!

*warms up with some spin kicks* *rolls* *ducks behind pillar out of sight*

What is a bo?

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

27. 6' wooden staff that's gonna whoop yer ass.

*approaches pillar doing figure-8's with bo*

[Random_Australian]

28. *grabs 35kg rock* *throws,spins, throws two double fist and a half rocks*

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

29. *ducks*

Dude, what the fuck 35kg? You a superhero now?

[Random_Australian]

30. Both hands, and it took some effort, I must admit. It didn't go high

enough to duck, in fact, so I would reconsider your last post.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

31. *whacks your foot with the bo*

[Random_Australian]

32. *flipkicks* *banssúm with nightstick covering body*

in other words, I sent my foot going the same direction as your stick, kicked your stick back.
Then banssúm means 'bless you' in potrugese, it is a kick at anywhere from solar plexis to groin. It is special in that it is completely horizontal. There is no vertical movement of the foot for the duration of the kick. ;)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

33. *recoils, fake strike to lower right leg, reversed into left head strike*

It would make sense if you saw it, trust me.

[Random_Australian]

34. *skivas head strike* *back skivas* *smacks legs out from under you*

Btw, skiva is a special crouching block from Capoeira. I don't really know how to describe it.

Basically Capoeira persons are just as good when on the floor, so a skiva is very low. In this case it involved falling back and getting back up.... but with my leg pulling yours from under you.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

35. *stays on ground*

When you get up, *sweeps legs with bo* *springs up* *thrusts bo into back or stomach*

[Random_Australian]

36. That was unclever. *dodges bo, footlegs behind you, knees you in

kidney* *headbuts c1*

c1 is the highest neck vertebrae, IIRC.

I did tell you that 1/2 the point of Capoeira is agility on the ground.
In this case, you know when a hoops was bieng spun and is going into the ground? Like that in reverse.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

37. *writhes around, gets pissed, gets up, reaches into jacket...*

*throws knife into foot*

[Random_Australian]

38. *pulls knife out* Reaches into pants.

That was a gun in my trousers. I was not pleased to see you.


Goodbye, Mr/Mrs/Ms Bond.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

39. *disarms gun with wristlock* *shoots*

Goodbye Australian.

[Random_Australian]

40. *laughs from bulletproof vest* says, don't shoot for the head huh?

You Lose!

*presses detonator*

50 kg of C4 explodes all around.

(No, you cannot get out of that, I have another suprise if you do though)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

41. Dude, what the fuck?

I shot you in the head.

[Random_Australian]

42. In which case the suprise happens anyway.

On cessation of my neural activity, seven just below critical mass U-235 lumps are brought together.

*thwump as lumps meet*

Goodbye. (Note: This was very carefully chosen. At this point it is physically impossible to prevent the explosion (yeah, it's a nuke) and there is clausal* chance of you surviving.

* Clausal = the same probability as Santa Claus existing. If you say "oh look there is Santa Claus", I will call you on logical fallacy.

;) I never, ever do worse than draw.

Goodbye, Ms 3_2000.

[deadparrot]

5. Congrats!

I did it a few weeks ago. The Lounge has been a much happier place ever since. :D

[u4ic]

6. And I may well answer

"people slow down at that age...";-)

[reyd reid reed]

7. What kudzu thread?

There was a kudzu thread?

Damn...

[Robeson]

8. I think I'll join you!....

...:-)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. Well, my sweet Oeditpus Rex......

I won't ask you that!

I'll just say congrats!

I hid it ages ago, and boy oh boy, I don't miss it one little bit!

I was soooo relieved when it vanished.....:woohoo:

[jpgray]

13. I'm hiding this thread

[Runcible Spoon]

15. 644 posts and NOT A SINGLE GREATEST THREAD NOMINATION

:shrug:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

16. You can only nominate a thread for the greatest page in the 1st 24 hours.

No one knew it was going places then.

[Runcible Spoon]

17. ah so.

I see the truth of it

[Dave Reynolds]

18. Why do you hate America?

I mean, it's baseball, kudzu, and apple pie.

[mduffy31]

22. You can't stop it...

...you can only try to contain it.

[hfojvt]

23. that reminds me of what the idiot talking heads said about west nile

Their first stupid comment was:

"just don't get bit by a mosquito"

I could not figure out how they thought such a feat was possible. Wear a diving or spacesuit all summer, or is deet really that effective?

the second stupid comment was

"well, we could wipe out all mosquitos ..."

Yeah, right, sure we could.

[kwassa]

43. Kudzu? What's that?
