What's wrong with the S word?

The delightful Ms. Dammerung has promised to grievously smite the next fool to use it within her earshot. Is all.

00:57 / 07.06.04

Can she do that?

01:01 / 07.06.04

Ah, thanks, Bed Head... I thought maybe I'd dreamed it.

01:08 / 07.06.04

Can she do that? I wouldn't like to test. I'm quite sure Maz has an array of fearsome powers which she keeps in reserve. It’s only a word. If it’s causing such offense, it can’t be too difficult to avoid using it. In which case, I think ‘malarky’ is a more-than-adequate substitute: quaint, outmoded, singsongy. Perfect.

01:09 / 07.06.04

Whenever I hear malarky I think "what a wonderful name for a duck"

I'm also quite fond of "brouhaha" and "palaver".

01:13 / 07.06.04

It's actually just a quote from an obscure movie, Super Troopers. It also contained the excellent quote "Who wants a mustache ride?"

I don't have a pistol with which to whip anyone. And actually I have no problems with the word shennanigans, or malarkey, but people don't say shennanigans nearly often enough, and I just couldn't help myself. But look how it's revitalized this thread!

01:14 / 07.06.04

I've been rather fond of palaver ever since reading Stephen Kings The Dark Tower Series.

01:14 / 07.06.04

Hooray! We can say "shenanigans" again!

SHENANINGANS!!!

Ahh, I feel so much better.

01:16 / 07.06.04

But you've been saying it! Can we pistol whip you? Please?

01:21 / 07.06.04

Zzzz. I simply have to go to bed, lady and gents. An absolute pleasure to have made your acquaintance all over again, each of you. We must do this again some time. G’night.

I go to bed rather narked that I missed Ms Dammerung by a whisker, curse my tiredness.

Night, BH!

01:25 / 07.06.04

G'night BH!

Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!

01:28 / 07.06.04

Hello, goodnight!

I might even come back when I realise it's too hot to sleep. Stupid weather.

01:36 / 07.06.04

I can just picture Suedehead standing at the window shaking his fist at the sky...

01:36 / 07.06.04

Indeed. Gnight all, darlings. I'm glad no one got hurt.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

01:39 / 07.06.04

Night!

01:41 / 07.06.04

Yes, g'night.

02:29 / 07.06.04

So is everyone gone?

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

02:43 / 07.06.04

I'm still about- I just had to go and read the late editions of the papers.

10:09 / 07.06.04

"So, do you think the debt could be trapped *in* Reagan's colon?"

"Oh God, I just said that."

YES! Give in to the FACETIOUS side, Haus!

06:07 / 08.06.04

Is there anybody out there?

08:28 / 08.06.04

Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?

We don't need no moderation
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the chatroom
Hey! Admins!
Leave those trolls alone!

I say this, and I'm a Mod. I'm gonna burn in hell, aren't I?

09:07 / 08.06.04

Uh yeah baby: you're going to burn for sure! But doncha know...

Satisfaction came in a chain reaction - Do you hear?
I couldn't get enough, so I had to self destruct,
The heat was on, rising to the top
Everybody's goin' strong
That is when my spark got hot
I heard somebody say

Burn baby burn! - Disco inferno! (Aah yeah!)
Burn baby burn! - Burn that mother down
Burn baby burn! - Disco inferno!, yeah!
Burn baby burn! - Burn that mother down

Or maybe you'll burn on the steak--a sacred

(shut your mouth!)

CALF!

Just like Hue Heffer and Playsoy Undays.

I flipped my wig
In the valley of the dolls
went on a teenage rampage
What a trip, trip, trip
this psychedelic retro
that they don't understand
open up your mind button up your lip, lip, lip
cause I'm sick of conversations with people I despise
I'm sick of free love and always quenching my desires
I'm sick of groovy, diggin it, like wow
I'm sick of it all I wanna crush kill destroy

I wanna spill the blood of a hippie
I'm eager to stone a stoned child from the sixties
I want a switchblade to cut their love beads
An enema, enema, enema, not love
That's what the world needs now

Our body is a temple
Its a sacred site
she's chanting mantras, she's a loser
lost in space, space, space
she jacked into the junk
shes got a velvet head
she's not high on life
she's off her face face face
I say no more Alice when she's ten foot tall,
No more blowing in the wind or I shall be released
I've got this headache click whats the use
I'm gonna get a gun and make my own kinda fun

I want to spill the blood of a hippie
I'm eager to stone a stoned child from the sixties
I want a switchblade to cut their love beads
An enema, enema, enema, not love
That's what the world needs now

10:22 / 08.06.04

Do you believe in esp
I do and i'm try'n'a get through to you
If you're picking up off me
Then you know just what to do
Think

Brainwaves transmitted from my mind
Of a magnetic kind
I don't know what to do
If i can't get through to you
So think

Do you believe in esp
I've been try'n'a get through to you
If you've been picking up off me
Then you'll know just what to do
Don't you

11:49 / 08.06.04

I'm not a loco with motive to suture myself
I've been a cynic for too many years
Playing doctor and nurse, it can be good for your health
I've seen clinics with those gimmicks in Tangiers

But if you open your heart to a smooth operator
He'll take you for all that you've got
He'll hand you a curse that'll be with you later
It'll shake you the way he takes off like a shot

You need a bit of
Ooooh...Shock Treatment
Gets you jumping like a real live wire
Need a bit of
Ooooh...Shock Treatment
So look out Mister, don't you blow your last resistor
For a vista that'll mystify ya

You're blinded by romance, you're blinded by science
You're condition is critically grave
But don't expect mercy from such an alliance
Suspicion of traditions so new wave

You need a bit of
Ooooh...Shock Treatment
Gets you jumping like a real live wire
Need a bit of
Ooooh...Shock Treatment

So look out Mister, don't you blow your last resistor
For a sister that'll certify ya, fy ya, fy ya

You need a bit of
Ooooh...Shock Treatment
Gets you jumping like a real live wire
You need a bit of
Ooooh...Shock Treatment

So look out Mister, don't you blow your last resistor
For a sister that'll certify ya, fy ya, fy ya, fy ya!
