A crying small girl child just showed up at my door

[NMDemDist2]

I gave it a cookie and let it call its mom

:scared:

[youthere]

1. did it put the lotion on its skin?

[yardwork]

4. LOL! I get the reference. I wonder how many others will.

[youthere]

6. Couldn't help it...it's the first thing that came to mind when I read...

"..and let it call its mom"

[yardwork]

I wonder if it is about a size 12.

[NMDemDist2]

11. heck, it wasn't even *age* 12

more like 8 or 9 is my guess........

[yardwork]

12. Too small.

[NMDemDist2]

19. yes very small

and bony too

wouldn't hardly be worth roasting

:crackle_ala_Hansel's_witch:

[yardwork]

26. You got the reference! LOL!

[NMDemDist2]

29. the Silence of the Lambs reference??

yes, yes I did

:yoiks:

[yardwork]

36. I see that lots of other people got it too. Now I'm embarrassed.

:hide:

[NMDemDist2]

7. no

and I'm glad she came to my house, not yours

:spank:

:rofl:

[Dave_Fl_50]

13. Thank you. That reference always really creeps me out

[youthere]

18. That's been like a running one-liner in our house...

everytime I put moisturizer on my face or hands, my husband gets this weird look on his face and in his best "Buffalo Bill" voice says that.

[Dave_Fl_50]

23. And you can still sleep at night???

[youthere]

25. LOL! I'm not worried...

I just keep a firm grip on his little dog. ;)

[Dave_Fl_50]

33. IOddly 'm okay with "I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti. "

[youthere]

37. well, to be fair...Fava Beans go really well with just about anything.

[NMDemDist2]

43. ROFL

:applause:

[Bucky]

9. !!

:rofl:

[NaturalHigh]

24. ...or else it gets the hose again.

[NMDemDist2]

27. quit it you pevs--she looked like this

:spank: :spank:



:hide:

[NaturalHigh]

30. Just to clarify...

Did she get the hose or not?

[NMDemDist2]

39. no she got a fresh baked cookie and a big dog to pet

she's home safe now

:spank:

[texas1928]

32. I have seen Anime...

And the ones that look like that usually end up in some pretty awkward positions and states of undress.

I'm just saying... :shrug:

[NMDemDist2]

41. yeah, I didn't want to put a real kid's pic up

with all the pevs around here

:yoiks:

[TrogL]

2. it's "its" or preferably "her"

[NMDemDist2]

5. it's in the possesive

its is plural, but the mom belongs to the child, therefore it's mom

[Mutley]

10. It's the other way around.

"Its" is possessive and "it's" is the contraction for "it is."

[NMDemDist2]

15. never fails

every grammar rule has its exception eh??

:rofl:

[Mutley]

17. Of course!

I think the people who make the rules do it to feel superior to all of us who try to know the rules, but can't keep up with all of them. :D

[NMDemDist2]

21. it's been so long since I read Stark and White's

thanks for the refresher

:hi:

[Mutley]

38. Hehe, no problem.

:hi:

[Sugar Smack]

50. You mean Strunk and White.......

Right? :P :P :P :P :P :hi:

[NMDemDist2]

53. right! I have it on the shelf

but I told you it had been years

:rofl:

:blush:

[Flaxbee]

20. "it's" is ONLY for "it is"

not possessive.

And how can "it" be plural? "There are several its on the floor"? :shrug: "Go get some its at the store"?

[NMDemDist2]

22. hey

I've gone to the store for its on occasion

and a few thems too

:rofl:

[Flaxbee]

40. as a matter of fact, I have to run out to the store soon for a few its, myself

:D

:hi:

[texas1928]

3. Don't invite them in...

That is how you get the vampire...


you can never invite them in.

[NMDemDist2]

8. oooo noes!!!

I'm doooooomed

:hide:

[texas1928]

28. Well, look at this way...

You will be up nights.

[NMDemDist2]

31. well that will come in handy when hubby is working the late shifts I guess

:hide:

[texas1928]

35. Would you give him the Vampire, if you got it?

Think of the elections you could influence.

[NMDemDist2]

42. heck yeah! he's my favoritest running pard

it would be no fun without him

:rofl:

[texas1928]

44. But you could have a whole coven of young studs to serve you...

I mean, really.

[NMDemDist2]

45. I can still have the young studs and my bestest running pard

to keep them all in line

best of both worlds eh??

and if we've got the vampire we'll be our young tight selves (instead of the old, saggy selves) and he was a *lot* of fun when he was the young studly unit

trust me

:rofl:


TMI??

:hide:

[texas1928]

46. Well, I know I was a lot more fun when I was thinner.

More athletic too.


But the question is, Will you let him get some young beauties too?

[NMDemDist2]

47. of course

it's only fair eh?

I know where his heart is

:evilgrin:

the only downside is I'll have to keep the lovelies in line. much more work than keeping the studlies in line, believe me....

[texas1928]

48. Man what a great hijacking.

Went from crying child to vampires. WOW!!


Oh the Queen vampire holds court over all.

[NMDemDist2]

49. is it a hijack when I'm the op

or just a wild tangent??

:rofl:

[texas1928]

52. Well, for you it is tangent.

But I hijacked it and got you off on the tangent.

[Bucky]

14. That happened to me when I was 4

I was out of town visiting cousins. I didn't know their last name and I got lost in their neighborhood. I ended up in tears and just knocked on some stranger's door.

How I ever made it to 44 is still a mystery, frankly.

[NMDemDist2]

16. she lost her key someplace

her mom was really relieved when she called back and spoke to me

they really need to hide a key somewhere on the property for the little thing

[yardwork]

34. That happened to me when I was about twenty.

I was really drunk and I got separated from my boyfriend in his apartment complex, which seemed to go on forever, a repeating pattern of identical apartment buildings with no distinguishing characteristics whatsoever. I couldn't remember his apartment number. And I had to pee real bad.

So I knocked on a random apartment door. And they let me in to pee! I'm not making this up.

So I went back outside and waited on the curb, and then I got nervous that I was in danger, so I knocked on the same stranger's door again - and asked them to drive me back to my dorm, ten miles away! And they started to do it!

And then my boyfriend and his friends came around the bend of the driveway looking for me, and the guy whose door I'd randomly chosen said with great relief, "Is she yours?"

It's a miracle I lived to be 44, too.

[harmonicon]

51. if you think that's bad....

my brother lived in one of those places in college, and he had a room mate who, let's say, "enjoyed" a drink. This guy one time tried to come home from the bar, and either had lost his keys or couldn't get them to work, so he got really mad and started knocking on the door. He eventually kicked the door in to get inside.

Thing is, it wasn't their apartment, and there were people inside who lived there who were rather afraid and none too pleased. I can't remember if my brother had to go collect him that night or from the drunk tank the next morning.

and, yeah, this guy now is a husband and father, almost like a real adult - I wonder if he tells his wife and kids these stories.
