Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!!!
If this is the official sulla thread of praise:
Thanks for all teh funnee, poems, and serious stuff you put out here. This blog is al the better for your membership.
HAT'S OFF TO SULLA!
rabbit,
nah - I did my praise-whoring on the previous thread. :)
good for an open thread.
But...one option. for all the "why Sulla, dammit?" questions there is a "what about MY ___ post?" or "Why didn't ___'s post send her into orbit?"
Cuz this site's got talent. Time to break out the "snaps" jar.
Sulla, you are an officer and a gentleman. A man of rare refined manner and impeccable judgement. The epitomy of manly attributes, you are a pleasure to watch play tennis.
I am proud to know you, and humbled that you consent to associate with me.
BrendaK- you are breaking Fatwa's heart....
I don't want to be the one to tell him...
Fatwa has all that, and additional attributes that make him truly irresistable.
All these fuzzy, muppety men here are so hot!
I'll start.
Joe's Lexicon is freakin' brilliant Our own dictionary is a great sign of a healthy, friendly community.
BrendaK - red hair, feisty, flirtatious, and she codes at 3am. A voice of reason under fire, and a voice of fire against unreasonableness.
Sinner - the founder of the feast, whose early efforts in particular set the tone and the mission of DHD. Like prometheus, he provided us mere mortals with the ® and ™ that kicked things up a notch around here. He's funny, he's accomplished, and we wouldn't be Tricksy VBSers without him.
Assuming it's a him. :)
once you go muppet...
Aw, you guys are adorable!
Still, I say [clenched fist shaken to the skies above], WHY SULLA, WHY?
I think Joe Schmo is sweet.
I think Openacanatuna keeps it real when I start feeling sorry for Deb.
I think I sound like Nedra and I'll hush, now.
Maybe you could get Donna Summers to do a remake of Love to love ya baby for you guys:
Love to hate ya!
Do any of you guys ever worry that you devote so much time to hating someone you've never met? Do you ever wonder if you've hit rock bottom by hanging out here?
Just askin'.
Sulla,
You make me look like a stammering paint sniffer. And I'm a genius, for cryin' out loud!
(Actually, I have a confession to make: I'm not really a genius. It just sounds so much better than Fred the Wiseguy)
fred the moron's here! kul!
Hey, we can ask whats-her-name. Why are you so interested in Sulla? What did he do or say to you that caught your attention?
inquiring minds want to know!
Rabbit - Mistress of disguise and Queen of the perfect, sussinct one-line retort.
Hey deb-go look at what John Henry has done to you now.
I don't hate Deborah Frisch, Ph.D.
I don't HATE the Word Warrior (a misnomer on both counts - as an avatar, an illiterate bully with no honor doesn't scan. How about Weird Whinier?)
Burke threw down the gauntlet. You're on the side of humanity, or you're on the side of oblivion.
You, Word Warrior - former Jew, former Palestinian, current cave-dwelling Al Qaeda scum from which you hurl invective against innocents - are in the crosshairs for a legal, social, emotional and mental bunker-busting.
When the real Dr. Deborah Frisch rises from the ashes of the quarter-ton curb stomp, ready to rejoin humanity, give us a call. Publish your book, and I'll even buy a copy.
BrendaK-coming from you-my ears are turning pink...
Thanks
John Henry - the true and undisputed Bull Goose Looney. Trainer extradinaire of poo-flinging monkies.
Deb,
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. You cannot imagine what a relief it is to know that YOU think I'm a moron. God bless you! I will pray you serve the minimum!
rabbit:
Thanks! I prefer tasty to sweet, but either way I'm still a dish! Ha!
Now where'd that weird whinier go?
Tell us a story of how the men in cans took you to court.
Here's the thing - I'm not feeding any trolls tonight. I believe I said it all this morning.
I'm doing tributes at the moment, not pointing out the idiot elephant in the room.
despote de la remarque éventée:
Elle Parte maintenant. Ou je taunt vous une deuxième fois.
That's what I was gonna say but I had a mouth full of pork rinds.
Can Brenda be Montana Wildhack?
The pendant would come in handy about now.
Let us pray.
Our Boots on the Ground in Eugene deserve praise:
OregonMuse, Northwesterner, and the others that pop in now and again.
Praise to those who lurk and link, spreading the frischtale across the land.
(Sulla. Appropriate kowtows, obsequious comments, and yes, the force is strong with you.)
warriordumot,
Deb, don't let all the Sulla praise lull you into a ...blackout?
I sent you some specific and straightfoward questions. What do you have to say?
Fred the Genius - with the tenacity of a bulldog and the wit of a true comic, he keeps his eyes on the ball.
Joeschmo - Oh, Joe. Purveyer of helmety goodness, Planetist! and keeper of the arcane knowledge of the biker. I would never have known about Corpsehumping w'out ye.
Ha! Tyrant of the flat comment (loose translation)!
Aw Brenda, thanks!
Helmety goodness would be incomplete without a good round of corpsehumping.
Thanks for being our Joan of Arc, fiery conscience and all.
Frisch;
"Do any of you guys ever worry that you devote so much time to hating someone you've never met? Do you ever wonder if you've hit rock bottom by hanging out here?"
Nope. It's all in a worthy cause, namely, to help ensure that you NEVER work in teaching again.
You know that I don't lie to you, and that I keep my word.
"Just askin'"
Just Answerin'
Shotgun...apply directly to the brainstem.
Lickie-Toadie;
I could use spellcheck, as well as preview. Rabbit is succinct, not sussinct. My hands are outtyping by brain.
'Lo, folks -
Just getting caught up...after a day of catching-up on necessary evils.
SUL-LA, SUL-LA, SUL-LA! (Because, you know, I always go along with the crowd. And you have set a high bar for both literary snark and reasonableness.)
BrendaK- you are breaking Fatwa's heart...
Rabbit, that presumes I have one.
OTOH, BrendaK's is large enough to encompass all of us; she's becoming kind of like our "den mother".
[An alluring, fierce one.]
DENNY CRANE!!
Illinois Republican
Fred-more than once I have read you & said, "He really is a Funny Genius!" I never got to tell you ,I loved that wipe a liberal line.
Brenda,
You're too kind!
Holy Toledo. I am away for not even 24 hours and this place just explodes.
The weather today here in Eugene has been sultry hot. Good weather to bring out teh crazee.
Oops, just heard the dinner bell, more later.
Darn it, I'm forgeting names! I applaud you all.
Thanks, Rabbit!
You know, I don't like to brag, but I've had more important shit painted over than Frisch will ever publish.
Sulla and Joe,
JG predicted he would turn Deb into a verb. But I’ve spent some time working this through the teleprompter and have concluded she is probably an adjective or an adverb.
Having carefully considered her job opportunities (none) (can I get a fee out of this?) I’ve decided to tackle Joe’s compilation of the Deb Lexicon. I would like to call it DebLex if future search engine opportunities arise.
Joe, you have trademark rights so let me know. I can’t get it done tonight but should be finished in a few days.
mariposa - a truly nice person, and that's rare. Willing to fight on for compassion, even in the fact of almost insurmountable odds.
ottavarima - uses her rapier wit to engage in twit-defeating and leap tall html buildings, a superhero for the web.
It's a shame we don't have a forum to learn more of the specifics of each others' accomplishments. Esp. those who have published books - I'd like to expand my reading list.
I haven't done much - fiction mostly, some contributions to forgetable technical journals, bit parts in Eastern European anime - but hanging out with such an august crowd raises my game, and my aspirations.
Yoda,
She's gonna sue you for loss of futre earnings and "defamating" her character.
Plus don't put her picture on the cover,it will scare ols ladies and children.
oreganmuse and northwesterner: boots on the ground, brave in the fact of possible enemy detection, they are bards and chroniclers of teh crazee®
Rabbit - the heck with the old ladies and the children, Don't Scare The Horses!
yoda:
Email me from my blogger page and let me know what you have in mind. The DHD Lexicon has always been about what we call her, how we describe her behavior, and how we describe our behavior. Please let me know how you envision the DebLex.
openacanatuna - My, my. Absolutely, positively crystal clear and steadfast in his objectives. He gives a cogent and impassioned explanation of his goals and could inspire armies.
bilgeman - Relentless in his pursuit of answers to questions that cause skittering Froaches to run for the dark. He also encourages captive monkies to dance with abandon.
All I've written is a grocery list & my dog ate it...we were out of dog food.
Layers
hosedigger - a rescuer and a hero, and even in the face of emnity would try to protect the plastic-and-duct tape free.
rabbit,
lmao!
you've written plenty here that's been a joy to read. don't sell yourself short.
Froaches.
ahuh ahuhuh
yoda - who ever a more flexible way of expressing himself had?
This is the last one I'm doing.
fatwa - a truly talented, funny and interesting person. I'm so glad to have met you.
Rabbit - that 'defamating' makes me laugh every time.
Rabbit
Thanks for the concern. If Deb wants to sue me then I promise everyone here that what I find in discovery will be posted here first....and it should be a treasure.
As to Deb and her actions, one thought seems to always come to mind: ""For 'tis the sport to have the enginer / Hoist with his owne
petar"
BTW Deb,that's Shakespeare for shooting yourself in the foot.
fatwa - I'm not the den mother, I'm the cheerleader.
I'm just astounded at the length, breadth and depth of the knowledge, talent and wit gathered here.
How amazing!
Thanks Brenda!
Joe
I need to work on this concept for a few days. I think it has promise because Herr Frisch will be around a while. Will email you with outline.
It's a shame we don't have a forum to learn more of the specifics of each others' accomplishments.
Unfortunately, some of my best writings are no longer available because the snow has long since melted.
Then again, sometimes the "ink" kills the grass underneath. I should check my neighbor's yard tomorrow.
Fred - I guess we're not talking snow angels here?
oreganmuse and northwesterner: boots on the ground, brave in the fact of possible enemy detection
Which is why I can absolutely never, no never make snarky comments on her blog, sorely tempted as I am sometimes.
But I deserve no praise. It is Nw-er who has done all the legwork here, even to the point, I believe, of actually seeing Deb in one of her displays of her "teh crazee" plumage in real life.
I am surrounded by people here who are much much accomplished than I am and a lot more funny than I am and I bow to your greatness.
Not happy ones, that's for sure!
Fred:
Unfortunately, some of my best writings are no longer available because the snow has long since melted.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Appropriate punchline: ...but it was in your daughter's handwriting.
Brenda, bard of our happy band of warriors,
EXCELLENT work.
I laughed out loud twice during my reading of this thread, both times it was someting Fred said...
And this started out as the "Sulla Tribute" thread...
I want to say again, openly and publicly, that this community is great. I had no idea when I got this idea that it would turn into something so fantastic and fun.
DHD is nothing but a low-level google stop without all of you.
Oh, one more special tribute:
Sinner - did you have any idea what would happen here? Thank you so much. That's real sychronicity. You have proven to be generous, responsible, dedicated and quite possibly prescient.
All hail SINNER, who made it all possible.
Thinner! Thinner! Thinner!
Uh... oh! I mean:
Sinner! Sinner! Sinner!
Joe,
That's an urban myth. Studies show that it's simply not possible to write legibly once the "ink" begins to exhibit a parabolic trajectory.
(Oh, that was BAD! Sorry!)
Thanks Brenda!
No idea, really. I honestly thought I would make about 4 posts and then hope that someone saw them and acted against hiring Dr. Deb.
I think Ace made the first link. It just about made my eyes bulge out when I saw it. Soon after Patterco, Allah (multiple times) and recently the 2nd tier Instalanch (spit on Prof. Reynolds [spit])
uhhh.. not really Glenn... heh® Just a little jokeski... indeed®
Someone asked upthread so, yes I am a "him".
Thanks for making all this possible, Sinner
Sinner:
Thanks for being our gracious host and cat herder!
You're not the only one who has "mixed" feelings on Prof. Renolds.
aargh: Prof. Reynolds
This comment has been removed by the author.
Yes, thank you Sinner, for EVERYTHING you've done!
One more thing gang, and this is no joke: You guys are the BEST!
Gotta hit the hay. EDT where I live. Thanks again, to all of you!
Thank YOU, Sinner.
sorry for misunderstanding the intent of "sulla sulla sulla" (didn't even think it would be a tribute to me - (blush)) - but the way it turned into a celebration of all of us made my day (working again *grumble*).
We're known by the company we keep.
The salon of DHD beats the isolation chamber of SWP every day, and twice on Sunday.
new thread...
I've only felt compelled to post here once before. Everytime I think I have something to say, one of you says it MUCH better than I could have! So thanks to all of you for being far more articulate and witty than I! :)
Hey eri,
I feel that way,too. But just dive in & you'll be treated nice, I promise!
