The "How Random Can You Be?" Thread.

[Bouncy Ball]

Post four random thoughts. They CANNOT be linked thematically or any other way. If you mess up the randomness, you'll be accused of being a republican. (People can challenge you and say your random thoughts are connected in some way.)

1. My cat bit me for no reason today.

2. Fried rice is good.

3. I talked to a woman who started crying.

4. The wind is not blowing.

(It's harder than it seems. Unless you're very weird.)

[GOPisEvil]

1. ok

1. My ceiling fan is on.

2. I haven't eaten dinner.

3. There is a stray hair on my calendar.

4. Jim Brown is on TV without his headwear.

[arwalden]

5. I challenge that...

1. My ceiling fan is on.

because you're feeling hot and light headed all because...

2. I haven't eaten dinner.

and as a result of the stress of not eating regularly, your hair is falling out and...

3. There is a stray hair on my calendar.

Okay... I can't link that last one.

4. Jim Brown is on TV without his headwear.

[Bouncy Ball]

7. I challenge it because I can TOTALLY see him

sitting in his chair in the living room on his laptop, looking up at the ceiling fan, then remembering that he hasn't eaten yet, then looking over at the calendar, then looking at his TV.

GOPisEvil is a REPUBLICAN!

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. Oh come on - "hair" and "headwear"

The first two are, if they are linked at all, linked most nebulously.

But three and four - no way. GOPisEvil loses this round.

[Bouncy Ball]

17. GOPisEvil? Loser?

:rofl:

Love ya, though.

[GOPisEvil]

21. Dammit! I've been outed as a Republican!

I hate when that happens! x(

[Zomby Woof]

50. It's 'cause you and I play golf!

x(

[GOPisEvil]

53. ...and we wear ugly pants, too!

x(

[Zomby Woof]

62. Yours wouldn't be so ugly

If you didn't STUFF them! x(

[redqueen]

2. I'm very weird.

Frozen clothing falls loudly.

Never call anyone a minge.

I think I could use a snorkel as a marital aid.

Birds may be smarter than we think.

[LynzM]

85. LMAO

Redqueen, you just made me snort! :rofl:

[Zomby Woof]

3. There once was an old man

He said "poop!" and died.

I liven up my cheesy noodles with salsa, gosh!

[Bouncy Ball]

6. YOU REPUBLICAN!!!!

That's only three thoughts. Leave it to YOU to fuck the thread up!

(Just kidding. Hugs.)

[Zomby Woof]

8. There are FOUR

Poop, death, cheese, and salsa! :P

The 4 elements of a meaningful existence. :D

[Bouncy Ball]

18. You know, those are all RELATED!!!

See???

Cheese, salsa, poop, death.

You just have to put it in the right order to see the relation.

You republican, you.

[wildhorses]

4. my finger hurts.

the radio is on.

tgif

the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy fence.

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. It's not snowing.

Billboards suck.

When I was at the zoo the last time, the giraffe area smelled bad.

What is it with Dietrich Bonnhoeffer worship, anyway?

THere - cranked that out in ten seconds.

[Bouncy Ball]

26. Not so fast there, Zippo.

My "wind not blowing" random thought triggered your "it's not snowing" thought.

So how many Ronald Reagan posters do you have up in your bedroom?

[Rabrrrrrr]

29. I didn't even read yours

I saw the "it's really difficult" or whatever you said, and had to immediately challenge that, and see just how quickly I could do it.

[Bouncy Ball]

33. You know you totally read mine.

Now you're a republican and a liar. Which fits very well together, actually.

;-)

[General Zod]

10. I'll give it a shot....

1. Don Henley sucks.

2. My balls itch.

3. Beta is better then VHS

4. Ron Mexico is a cool alias.

[Bouncy Ball]

25. NOPE! YOU LOSE!

Don Henley ALWAYS makes me think of itchy balls.

REPUBLICAN.

[General Zod]

36. D-OH!

[Deja Q]

11. Is this random enough?

I have a cat and his name is my wiener is really big and it tastes like that new digital camera I got for $200 that lacks common sense in politicians who are whores for $200 an hour the whore will clean my kitchen because I forgot to wash my laundry while getting exercise because the new Playgirl magazine came out and I want to say that Bill Gates would be better off peddling chocolate pudding rather than lawn fertilizer.

Random enough?

[Bouncy Ball]

30. It's very random, but because it's all one sentence, one

random thought *leads* to another, thus you must be a republican.

BUT I do have to admire your writing skill there. VERY random within the one sentence. A true master.

[LaurenG]

:eyes:

[Fox Mulder]

12. 1. Octagons are eight-sided figures.

2. I once sat on a pie. It was cherry.

3. I have a magic tractor. It was driving down the road and suddenly turned into a field.

4. I am drinking pop, and just snorted some out of my nose.

[Rabrrrrrr]

16. "I once sat" and "This one time" -

busted!

[Fox Mulder]

19. .

:P

[XemaSab]

20. If there's an iced tea in that bag, this could be love.

I feel like a new man.

Under the circumstances, there's only one thing I can do.

Queequeg.

[Canadian Socialist]

47. All things that Fox Mulder has said

or are X-files references. You are sooo busted as a republican. Or, alternatively, I am sooo busted as an XPhile. BTW, David Duchovny is so my boyfriend.

p.s. I can't be a republican... I AM CANADIAN!

[XemaSab]

54. Napes

I tried for the quadrifecta, but no Scully quotes came readily to mind :(

[Canadian Socialist]

57. Here you go

"Mulder, I'm not going to
ask you if you said what I
think you just said,
because I know it's what you
just said."-Scully, War
of the Coprophages

"He said I said what!?"-Scully,
Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space'

Scully's most famous line: "Mulder, it's me."

[XemaSab]

81. I got one! I got one!

:bounce:

"There's something up there, Mulder."

[Bouncy Ball]

41. Easy, #2 and #4 both involve food/drink items.

Also, the shape in #1 made you think of pie. Eight slices.

[Guy Fawkes]

14. Ellijah Wood -Lord of the Rings- Sir Ian McKellin

[Bouncy Ball]

39. It was supposed to not be related.

You republican!!

[LaraMN]

15. No prob.

Machine gun firing sounds like spitting.

My bean plant leaves look like they'd be good in salad, but I don't think I should eat them.

I don't want to see that Zorro movie.

I wonder if Connie's home.

[Rabrrrrrr]

22. Three of them are "I" statements

I'm not sure how Bouncy will rule on this one, but I would vote for busted.

"I don't think"
"I don't want"
"I wonder"

[LaraMN]

27. Yeah, well, screw you!

it's all about ME!!!!:rofl:

[Bouncy Ball]

35. I'm going to have to side with Rabrrrrrr.

Simply because he's sexy. Sorry!

[LaraMN]

43. Well, I suppose that's as a good a reason as any.

[LeftyMom]

23. 1. My son needs a nap.

2. I wish vegan cheese tasted better.

3. I'm putting off changing my brake pads because it looks like rain.

4. My shift ends in an hour.

[Bouncy Ball]

28. Mmmm, I think three and four MIGHT be related

but I can't quite put my finger on how, so you can still be a lefty for now.

[Rabrrrrrr]

32. Two things: first, every one of them is a "me" statement

Second, as to the link between three and four, three mentions brake pads, part of a car; the fourth one mentions "shift", which is something that cars do.

[Bouncy Ball]

34. Thanks.

I blame this damn flu shot. It fucked with my head or something.

That's it.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

79. Okay, got you on this one

vegan cheese can be used for brake pads.

[flvegan]

93. This one is SOOO easy...

1. My
2. I
3. I'm
4. My

These 4 posts are interconnected.

How?

Glad you asked.

Because all 4 reference the most incredible, wonderful, beautiful woman in the realm of the living.

3. I ran

4. moooooooooo

[Bouncy Ball]

38. #1 is related to #3.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

40. I could say the same of your 1 and 3

you say My and I, and I say we and I....I think you're the republican in disguise

[Bouncy Ball]

42. It's not your pronouns.

It's the driving and running and parking stuff.

But hey I do have to say yours made me giggle. Mooooo.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

44. but I didn't say running, I said ran

3) Why doesn't anything rhyme with orange?

RL

[Ladyhawk]

[RetroLounge]

69. Nope.

RL

[Mutley]

76. No, he's lonely because nothing rhymes with orange.

:D

[SOteric]

55. I love the way

the birds play in the wind near the bluffs.

Why can't they make a detergent that just smells like soap anymore? Why is it always 'Ocean Breeze,' or 'Summer Rain,' or 'Brite Citrus?'

I really need to find some time to get the oil changed in my car.

Dad looks so tired all the time, I really wish I could just push a button and make everything better for him.

2. Patrick Fitzgerald is balding.

3. My lasagna is only half-baked.

4. I'm watching a documentary about paleontologists in the Gobi Desert.

[Mutley]

65. 1 and 4 are both science related.

Then 3 is about food and 1 is about some kind of crazy digestive aid.

:D

[Ladyhawk]

70. Um...everything's related? :D n/t

[Mutley]

71. LOL!

I'm just going by the precedent set by previous judgments.

:D

[Ladyhawk]

74. I guess I lose, then. Drat! n/t

[Mutley]

77. Don't worry. I lose too.

I really should have read the thread before I posted.

[terrya]

59. Mine:

1) I'm wearing all black right now

2) My cat is asleep on my bed

3) It's not degrading to talk about the Clintons' marriage

4) I still don't know what I want for dinner

[Mutley]

66. If I go by some of the previous judgements...

"I'm" in number 1 and "I" in number 4 are related. Which also dooms my random thoughts because I did the same thing.

This is fun!
