Ok, this is pathetic! We're writers, the most creative of the creative, and yet we still cannot keep a simple message board active with new ideas, or even new mindless drivel! Enough, I say! Here's some random thoughts/quotes I pulled off my second brain. Now, discuss!
"We have had triumphs, we have made mistakes, we have had sex..."
--George Bush, meaning to say that he and the President (Reagan) have had "setbacks.
Live Bunnies Running Loose Golf (I have been there, it was in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, it was the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life.)
"The glass is half full, dammit!!!"
"A child of five could understand this! Send someone to fetch a child of five."
--Groucho Marx
"...All this singing doesn't phase ya, so we're thinking euthanasia..."
--Excerpt from a lullaby by William H. Macy
"One of the really bad things you can do to your writing is to dress up the vocabulary, looking for long words because you're maybe a little bit ashamed of your short ones. This is like dressing up a household pet in evening clothes."
-- Stephen King's On Writing, pg. 117
East Grand Rapids, where every place to eat will either give you food poisoning or have something that's heavy fall on you.
“Pigs is risen!”
--E. E. Cummings
"May the Good Lord take a liking to ya an' blow yuh up real soon."
--John Candy and Joe Flaherty on SCTV
“Warning! We are real Italians. From time to time you might hear or see yelling, screaming, fightinq, or even biting! Not to worry; we are only trying to run the business smoothly! Sit back and enjoy! --The Management”
--Quote in a Stratford, Ontario restaurant
footsteps on the underside of the overpass
"Take this $1 bill. Now think of how many strippers' g-strings this has been in."
--George Chimpels (George, I hope I spelled your last name right. If not, correct me.)
Snow White and the Eleven Smurfs
"O Lord, make me chaste...but not yet."
--St. Augustine's Libertine's Prayer
I came there looking for doorbells and I came back with the meaning of life.
"Nobody who was popular in high school can ever be hip. It's not possible. If you were popular in high school, that was your peak. Be satisfied."
--Penny Arcade
Kumquatilutionability
"I wanted to do something nice so I bought my mother-in-law a chair. Now they won't let me plug it in."
- Henny Youngman
Poetry Cafe: "I'll have an English muffin with butter and strawberry enjambment, please."
I know most of this is probably more mindless drivel than ideas, but it’s better than nothing. Rejoice! Be inspired!
