That was funny, and the guys singing sounded an aweful lot like the real boys. But the funniest part was the flash lyrics didn't match the song in a few places. Not sure if it was intentional, maybe part of the joke? I doubt it.

Song says "he don't need an IUD", and the flash says "ID". doh!

Song says his dog is a Pekinese, a type of dog. (Actually it's a cat pretending to be a dog, but that's another issue entirely. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif ) But the flash lyric says "His dog is peekin on me". lol

And finally, the song says he's making a souffle, while the flash lyric says he's making a "suit play". Wtf is a suit play? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

That's not Weird Al, man. These days any parody on the 'net gets labeled Weird Al, when many, many are not connected to him in any way.

Just to let you know.

Do you know what happened this week back in 1850?

California became a state.

The state had no electricity.

The state had no money.

Almost everyone spoke Spanish.

There were gunfights in the middle of the streets.

So it was just like California today,
except back then the women had real breasts.

John is at the Superbowl Game and sees a prime seat unoccupied near the 50 yard line. He goes down to it and talks to the man sitting in the seat beside the empty one.

"Excuse me, is that seat taken?"

"No, its not." the man replied.

"Would you mind if I sit?" John asks.

"No, help yourself."

John comments to the man about how he's surprised that the owner of that seat is not here to sit in it.

The man replies,"Well I bought that seat for my wife, but she died."

John says, "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Couldn't you get a brother, cousin, or other relative to take her seat?"

The man replied without hesitation, "They're all at the funeral."

Blonde Guy Joke:

The town's sheriff is walking down the street and sees a blonde cowboy coming down the walk with nothing on but his cowboy hat, gun and his boots, so he arrests him for indecent exposure. As he is locking him up, he asks
"Why in the world are you dressed like this?"

The Cowboy says "Well it's like this Sheriff... I was in the bar down the road and this pretty little red head asks me to go out to her motor home with her...so I did.
We go inside and she pulls off her top and asks me to pull off my shirt... so I did. Then she pulls off her skirt and asks me to pull off my pants... so I did. Then she pulls off her panties and asks me to pull off my shorts... so I did.
Then she gets on the bed and looks at me kind of sexy and says,
"Now go to town cowboy"... And here I am.

how the world works lately...


If a man cuts his finger off while slicing salami at work, he blames the restaurant.

If you smoke three packs a day for 40 years and die of lung cancer, your family blames the tobacco company.

If your neighbor crashes into a tree while driving home drunk, he blames the bartender.

If your grandchildren are brats without manners, you blame television.

If your friend is shot by a deranged madman, you blame the gun manufacturer.

And if a crazed person breaks into the cockpit and tries to kill the pilot at 35,000 feet, and the passengers kill him instead, the mother of the crazed deceased blames the airline.

I must have lived too long to understand the world as it is anymore.

So, if I die while my old, wrinkled butt is parked in front of this computer,
I want you to blame Bill Gates...okay?

Late one night a drunk guy is showing some friends around his brand new apartment. The Last stop is the bedroom, where a big brass gong sits next to the bed.

"What's that gong for?" the friend asks him.

"It's not a gong," the drunk replies. "It's a talking clock."

"How does it work?"

The guy picks up a hammer, gives the gong an ear-shattering pound, and steps back.

Suddenly, someone on the other side of the wall screams,
"For God's sake, you a**hole...it's 3:30 in the $^$@# morning!"

well, this is a concise and funny way of stating the purpose of a roguelike dungeon builder:
Quote:

One of the most important things in writing a computer game of
any sort is the way in which you represent the universe the game takes
place in. In a rogue-like, you will need to represent several things:

#1. The Dungeon
#2. The Slimy Things in The Dungeon
#3. The Pointy Things with which a player kills Slimy Things
#4. The Player that holds the Pointy Things

This Article will cover #1: The Dungeon.

Section 2 : The Dungeon

Alright, we need to find some way to represent the corridors and
rooms of The Dungeon itself. One of the easiest and most flexible methods
of doing this is to create a two-dimensional array of cells. Each cell will
be a wall, a floor, a door, a hideous spiked pit of death, or any number of
other things we might want to represent as one tile:

Well, for my contribution, 'How many mormons does it take to change a lightbulb?'

If it's the elders, one to put in charge of changing the lightbulb, all the rest to suggest an apropriate lightbulb-changing activity and then 10 to play basketball.

if it's the relief society, three to organise it, five to bring refreshments, five to decorate, one to change the bulb and everyone else to eat the refreshments and talk.

If it's the bishopric (bishop and two councilers), one - to delagate it to the elders.

If it's the high priests, three. one to bring a chair, one to bring the oxygen bottles and masks and one to stand on the chair and change the bulb.

if it's the aaronic priesthood - one. he stands on a chair, puts the bulb in the socket and the whole world revolves around him.

BLONDES



1st Degree:

A married couple was asleep when the telephone rang at two in the morning. The wife (undoubtedly blonde), picked up the telephone, listened a moment, and said, "How should I know, that's 200 miles from here!" and hung up. The husband said, "Who was that?" The wife said, "I don't know; some woman wanting to know 'if the coast is clear'."

2nd Degree:

Two blondes are walking down the street. One notices a compact on the sidewalk and leans down to pick it up. She opens it, looks in the mirror, and says, "Hmm, this person looks familiar."

She hands it to the second blonde. The second blonde looks in the mirror and says, "You dummy, it's me!"

3rd Degree:

A blonde suspects her boyfriend of cheating on her, so she goes out and buys a gun. She goes to his apartment unexpectedly and when she opens door, she finds him in the arms of a redhead. Well, the blonde is really angry. She opens her purse to take out the gun, and as she does so, she is overcome with grief. She takes the gun and puts it to her head.

The boyfriend yells, "No, honey, don't do it!"

The blonde replies, "Shut up, you're next!"

4th Degree:

A blonde brags about her knowledge of state capitals. She proudly says, "Go ahead; ask me, I know all of them."

A friend says, "OK, what's the capital of Wisconsin?"

The blonde replies, "Oh that's easy -- 'W'."

5th Degree:

What did the blonde ask her doctor when he told her she was pregnant?

"Is it mine?"


6th Degree:

A blonde had just totaled her car in a horrific accident. Miraculously, she managed to pry herself from the wreckage without a scratch. "Wow!" the trooper gasped. "Your car looks like an accordion that was stomped on by an elephant!

Are you OK, ma'am?"

"Why, yes, officer, I'm just fine" the blonde chirped.

"Well, how in the world did this happen?" the officer asked as he surveyed the wrecked car.

"Officer, it was the strangest thing!" the blonde began. "I was driving along this road, when from out of nowhere this tree popped up in front of me, so I swerved to the right, and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was another tree! I swerved to the right and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was...."

"Uh, ma'am," the officer said, cutting her off as he looked inside the car.

"There isn't a tree on this road for 30 miles.

That was your air-freshener swinging back and forth."


7th Degree:

Returning home from work, a blonde was astonished to see that she had been robbed. She telephoned the police at once and reported the crime.

The police dispatcher broadcast the call on the channels, and a K-9 unit patrolling nearby was the first to respond. As the K-9 officer approached the house with his dog on a leash, the blonde ran out on the porch, shuddered at the sight of the cop and his dog, and then sat down on the steps.

Putting her face in her hands, she moaned, "I come home to find all my possessions stolen. I call the police for help, and what do they do?



They send me a BLIND policeman!"

(Sentient Meat)

"They're made out of meat."

"Meat?"

"Meat. They're made out of meat."

"Meat?"

"There's no doubt about it. We picked several from different parts of the planet, took them aboard our recon vessels, probed them all the way through. They're completely meat."

"That's impossible. What about the radio signals? The Messages to the stars."

"They use the radio waves to talk, but the signals don't come from them. The signals come from machines."

"So who made the machines? That's who we want to contact."

"They made the machines. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Meat made the machines."

"That's ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat."

"I'm not asking you, I 'm telling you. These creatures are the only sentient race in the sector and they're made out of meat."

"Maybe they're like the Orfolei. You know, a carbon-based intelligence that goes through a meat stage."

"Nope. They're born meat and they die meat. We studied them for several of their life spans, which didn't take too long. Do you have any idea the life span of meat?"

"Spare me. Okay, maybe they're only part meat. You know, like the Weddilei. A meat head with an electron plasma brain inside."

"Nope. We thought of that, since they do have meat heads like the Weddilei. But I told you, we probed them. They're meat all the way through."

"No brain?"

"Oh, there is a brain all right. It's just that the brain is made out of meat!"

"So... what does the thinking?"

"You're not understanding, are you? The brain does the thinking. The meat."

"Thinking meat! You're asking me to believe in thinking meat!"

"Yes, thinking meat! Conscious meat! Loving meat. Dreaming meat. The meat is the whole deal! Are you getting the picture?"

"Omigod. You're serious then. They're made out of meat."

"Finally, Yes. They are indeed made out meat. And they've been trying to get in touch with us for almost a hundred of their years."

"So what does the meat have in mind."

"First it wants to talk to us. Then I imagine it wants to explore the universe, contact other sentients, swap ideas and information. The usual."

"We're supposed to talk to meat?"

"That's the idea. That's the message they're sending out by radio. 'Hello. Anyone out there? Anyone home?' That sort of thing."

"They actually do talk, then. They use words, ideas, concepts?"

"Oh, yes. Except they do it with meat."

"I thought you just told me they used radio."

"They do, but what do you think is on the radio? Meat sounds. You know how when you slap or flap meat it makes a noise? They talk by flapping their meat at each other. They can even sing by squirting air through their meat."

"Omigod. Singing meat. This is altogether too much. So what do you advise?"

"Officially or unofficially?"

"Both."

"Officially, we are required to contact, welcome, and log in any and all sentient races or multibeings in the quadrant, without prejudice, fear, or favor. Unofficially, I advise that we erase the records and forget the whole thing."

"I was hoping you would say that."

"It seems harsh, but there is a limit. Do we really want to make contact with meat?"

"I agree one hundred percent. What's there to say?" `Hello, meat. How's it going?' But will this work? How many planets are we dealing with here?"

"Just one. They can travel to other planets in special meat containers, but they can't live on them. And being meat, they only travel through C space. Which limits them to the speed of light and makes the possibility of their ever making contact pretty slim. Infinitesimal, in fact."

"So we just pretend there's no one home in the universe."

"That's it."

"Cruel. But you said it yourself, who wants to meet meat? And the ones who have been aboard our vessels, the ones you have probed? You're sure they won't remember?"

"They'll be considered crackpots if they do. We went into their heads and smoothed out their meat so that we're just a dream to them."

"A dream to meat! How strangely appropriate, that we should be meat's dream."

"And we can mark this sector unoccupied."

"Good. Agreed, officially and unofficially. Case closed. Any others? Anyone interesting on that side of the galaxy?"

"Yes, a rather shy but sweet hydrogen core cluster intelligence in a class nine star in G445 zone. Was in contact two galactic rotation ago, wants to be friendly again."

"They always come around."

"And why not? Imagine how unbearably, how unutterably cold the universe would be if one were all alone."

TRUE STORY.

My best friend rented a room to a blond girl named Shonna. Shonna was a nice girl, but like most blonds was lacking some sense of common sense.

One day we all go out to a movie. Shona was suppose to meet us there but didn't show. After the move we all drive back to his house and low and behold there was a message on his answering machine. Shonna, having forgotten her cell phone used a pay phone to call and leave a message. The message went something like this:

"Hey I forgot what movie we are going to see. I would have called your cell but I forgot mine. I am on a pay phone, call me back when you get this message. The number here is Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep. Did you get that? Ok bye."

I swear to God that that really happened. We laughed for so long that non of use could move we were so paralyzed by stomach spasms.


INCIDENT number 2.

At work we had a routine for cycling our quartz furnace tubes out of production for cleaning. After cleaning we wrap them in pLastic and store them until they can be cycled back into production. We keep a daily log of our activities so the on coming ship can read what it is the previous ship had done.

Well I was working on the D night shift, with a intelligent blond who was my Group Lead at the time. Honestly she was one smart lady and I miss not working with her a lot.

Well we come in to find one of the tubes on a transport cart covered in pLastic. I think nothing of it and move on to start work on my assignment when I looked over and saw Meredith gasping for air. I quickly moved over to see if she was ok and she was pointing wildly at the log book. Her face was blood read and she had tears coming out of her eyes. I thought she was having a heart attack. I looked down at the log book and for an instant my heart stopped two.

You see on the day shift was this little blond weasel guy that really was just that, a weasel. He was a little skinny man with the worst hair cut you could imagine. He was a Weaseley little troll of a man that could not spell worth a damn. As I stood there, reading, I began to laugh at the image that was forming in my mind. I looked over at Meredith as she was acting out the scenario on the tube. I nearly wet myself it was so funny. The log entry read:

"I raped the tube but did not have time to put her away."

Now just imagine a 5 foot 1" man smoking a cigarette while raping a 12 inch quartz hole.

It was very funny at the time.

A young woman from New York was driving through a remote part of Texas when her car broke down. An American Indian on horseback soon came along and offered her a ride to a nearby town. She climbed up behind him on the horse and they rode off.

The ride was uneventful, except that every few minutes the Indian would shout out a wild "Ye-e-e-e-e-ha-a-a-" so loud that it echoed off the surrounding hills.

When they arrived in town, he let her off at the local service station, she expressed her thanks, and he yelled a final "Ye-e-e-e-e-ha-a-a!" and rode off.

"Why was that Indian so excited?" asked the service station attendant. "I don't know. I just rode behind him on the horse with my arms around his waist and holding onto the saddle horn so that I wouldn't fall off," the woman answered.

"Lady," the attendant said, "Indians don't use saddles."

and when your a politician on campaign, you say a lot of things, so the chance of a slip-up is greater. so, what must be considered is not how many stupid things he said, but the rate of stupid things he said.

i don't want to get this thread into a discussion of politics, i just wanted to point out statistical unreliability. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">things like that will probably be a real detriment to how kids view oceanography. kids these days think that military vehicles have forceshields for gods sake. when i was 5 or 10, i knew what was fantasy and what wasnt. of course, the news wasnt pure infotainment at that point in time, and my parents would talk to me about real stories in the paper.

its pretty sad that we let cartoons shape the worldview of the youth today, because its easier than truely interacting with your own kids.

A lady walked into a Lexus dealership to browse, and spotted the most beautiful, perfect "loaded" Lexus-and walked over to inspect it closer.As she bent forward to feel the fine leather upholstery, an unexpected little burst of flatulence escaped her.

Very embarrassed, she anxiously looked around to see if anyone had noticed. Sure enough, there standing behind her was a salesman. With a pleasant smile he greeted her, "Good day, Madame. How may we help you today?" Trying to maintain an air of sophistication and acting as though nothing had happened, she smiled back and asked, "Sir, what is the price of this lovely vehicle?" Still smiling pleasantly, he replied, "Madame, I'm very sorry to say that if you farted just touching it, you are gonna s**t when you hear the price.

Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.



One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.



Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.



When the medical director became aware of Edna's heroic act, he immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as he now considered her to be mentally stable.



When he went to tell Edna the news he said, "Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness."

"The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead."



Edna replied, "He didn't hang himself; I put him there to dry. So, how soon can I go home?"
