Well, we all know Tom, that quack, is back to himself when he throws down the word pun gauntlet! Now, as I migrate towards a suitable reply and duck his retorts, I think I might just be flocked!

YIPES!!! I happen to stumble upon ONE little pun, reminiscent of the blind squirrel's nuts, and it's taken as a GAUNTLET?!!!

Gaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! <then ROFL> then gaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!! My goose is cooked! I'm not ready to go toe-to-toe w/ a punmeister like Janet!!!

<even sneaking 'migrate' in there heehee janet . .. .very good!>

I live on a dry campus and haven't figured out if sparkling grape juice is ok.

This is the Peter they mentioned speaking. When I said I was going to go back to near the beginning, Emily suggested I sit down with an alcoholic beverage. I started the first evening with a dry white wine, but on the second evening has switched to something more potent, as depicted in my current avatar.

If you read through the thread, you will fun many funny things, many wierd things, and some proof that most of us here are warped. And we not only believe in the mythical Yeti, we have one among us.

Welcome, JoyfulM.

dry campus. I lived on one once, too. In the south. Alas, I was a non-drinker for many, many years.

WTH happened to me? :lol:

I never go to class any more and am a bit behind. :ph34r:

Why have I become such a slacker???????????????????????????????????????? :blink:

It's peer pressure, you know!! All the cool kids are havin' fun on the silly thread!! B)

OK, so did Sesame Street write the song and asked him to sing it or did they ask him to write and sing the song? :huh:

Cookies are on hold!!! I dropped the d@mn carton of eggs!!! :angry: They just don't taste/cook the same without eggs!

By the way, SuZee, it makes it hard for you to deny being here when you are actually posting!

Jhae-knit : I like it :lol:

I think I might just be flocked!

Uh......haven't heard flock used as a verb before...

And in the passive voice, yet(?)...

I was flocked

We have been flocked

They will have been flocking

Does this mean to be tricked? No, that's to be fleeced...

Is it somehow sexual? I want to know if I want to be flocked. :o:lol:

Ahh yes Peter-Peter-soon-to-be-I'll-assume-tho-I-can't-say-for-sure-Pumpkin-Pie-Eater, I was amazed & impressed at your readback.

Are pages 100-202 next?

Or have you already gone back further than 202?

I did try to start at page 1 once... . .ack!!! A couple pages of annoying songs/jingles?

I don't need any help getting annoying songs stuck in my head!!

:lol:

OMG you did NOT see me here

Well, I have certainly heard it as a verb, but usually in the active voice: "The birds just flocked to the feeder after I put the seed in."

Maybe I didn't hear correctly, but I may have also heard it in the imperative voice: "Flock off!" :lol:

I haven't gone back to page 1, so I don't really get the full story of the Yeti. I have read forward from page 200, looking for the parade story. It starts with a post from Emily on page 202.

Yes, I'd say you captured what I was trying to convey . . .And Emily, when you asked if you should want to be flocked . . . I just didn't have a good answer for you. I guess it depends on who is doing the flocking. :rolleyes:

For those who dare to venture back :unsure: . . . the yeti is first mentioned by Jess on page 186. It was dropped but then brought up again on page 200. From there . . . well, it just snow balled from there. And now he truly is a legend. :)

Okay, it looks like I need to go back, again, and read pages 186 through 199. But not tonight, as it is getting past 11pm here and I need to get up early in the morning for work. Jess started it, you say. Hmm.

I actually started there and thought it was rather lame. I then skipped to 250ish then to 300ish then to 350 and read on from there. Can you tell that I only had one class today?

And truly, it probably wouldn't matter if I didn't live on a dry campus. The one time I might have had a couple sips of a friend's margarita (uh...yeah...I'm a minor until Friday :ph34r: ) I got very very sick. And I seriously mean only a few sips. Diet Pepsi is my beverage of choice, with some Mountain Dew thrown in when necessary.

JoyfulM! Love the avatar!! :D:) (I miss Calvin & Hobbes :( )

Oy I almost hate to say this but when I say JoyfulM quickly it sounds like JoyPhlegm!! :ph34r:<_<

I have got to say that even with all the nicknames I had/have, JoyPhlegm is not one of them.

There was a kid in middle school that called me Yodge. I guess that's what he thought Joy spelled backwards is, but I never understood it. :huh:

Dear goodness I need to go to bed...

okay - I am not a fan of James Blunt's plaintive, weepy hit, but this amused me:

No, me neither but that was amusing - but I say!! doesn't he talk frightfully posh?!!

(MAD with question marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

...but aren't we all...deep down??? :lol:

:lol::lol::lol: .....oh wait :unsure::ph34r:

I spoke to my son's teacher yesterday (she's American)

I wanted to ask her if she was doing anything for Thanksgiving - but all that kept coming to mind was ''does she know about pull my finger'' :lol::o ........shocking!! I managed to keep my deranged wonderings (or was it wanderings???) to myself :lol::ph34r:

Well, if you've already read 200 and on, you really only need to read page 186. It isn't mentioned again until 200. Of course if you WANT to read it because we are all just so darn amusing . . . :rolleyes:

As in "I'll have a Diet Pepsi with a splash of Mountain Dew?" . . . so you like mixed drinks, huh?

Happy Birthday on Friday! :D . . . and for your Birthday dinner, you can have leftover turkey and taters! <_<

      @sillyyak52, If it makes you feel any better, I have a sibling who thinks the dinner table (at fine dining restaurants, and less formal pub grub settings etc.) is a personal buffet table and dips into the food of whoever is sitting beside or opposite to them just to get a taste (no plate is safe!) ... never asks for permission ... and has no consideration of gluten cross contamination even though I've explained it diplomatically with articles, pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis (which I've had for years) like @knitty kitty and I both suggest you do. I avoid that sibling at restaurants now and sit at the opposite end of the table out of arms reach! I've had similar treatment at a recent siblings 60th BBQ with family and friends (brought my own food and burger), where I was told (in a very rude manner) "tough luck, there's nowhere safe ... just cook your burger on the BBQ" which was cross contaminated ... I stood my ground and asked for a clean frying pan to cook my burger safely and separately.

      knitty kitty makes a good point. Avocados are high in histamines. So are bananas. Both also trigger histamine production in the body when consumed so there's a double whammy with those two foods for those struggling with histamine intolerance/MCAS

      @Sharke, The updated guidelines for a gluten challenge are to eat ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum.  Lesser amounts of gluten (3 grams) don't provoke an immune response strong enough that the antibodies leave the gastrointestinal tract and get into the blood where they can be measured in tTg blood tests.   Have no doubt that the antibodies made in the small intestine are doing damage there, even if you don't suffer severe symptoms, yet. Did you react to barley prior to going gluten free? Have you been checked for chronic autoimmune gastritis which is another autoimmune disease that sometimes occurs with Celiac Disease? Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Thiamine deficiency (Gastrointestinal Beriberi) can cause constipation and/or diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.   Thiamine Deficiency Disorders https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/

      @sillyyak52, Count another one in the same boat!  My family has always been in denial.  They said my tummy aches were a ploy to miss school.  My parents passed from health problems associated with uncontrolled Celiac Disease (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Glioblastoma brain tumor).  My sister still has her head buried in the sand.   I agree with @Rogol72, try the consequences of untreated celiac disease shock treatment.  Sometimes people are just scared of having to change their comfortable lifestyle.
