Ah, this is the place. I ask politely, you ask politely, we all ask politely for ICE-CREAM.
Posted by: liam on July 24, 2002 10:54 AMSurely you mean Tabasco-flecked vanilla ice-cream, à la dong resin, with the fry sauce on the side, perhaps permanently so.
Posted by: Miguel on July 24, 2002 11:05 AMno monkeys were harmed in the making of this post.
fry sauce ice-cream. thanks, now i'm going to go hurl. puke. spew (or blow) chunks. vomit. throw-up. upchuck. um, that's all i can think of for now.
Posted by: witchstone on July 24, 2002 11:06 AMI scream-a
You scream-a
We all-a scream-a
For ice cream-a.
i prefer "yak".
"Aw, man, I think that shrimp cocktail was turned. I'm gonna go yak."
Posted by: jpoulos on July 24, 2002 11:22 AMI think "Hork" has a nice ring to it. Summons visions of drifting lazily along the canals of Venice in the halcyon days of yesteryear, racing on furniture polish and malt liquor, casually vomiting over the lithe forearms of your guide, Luigi.

Posted by: witchstone on July 24, 2002 11:33 AMOf mormons and monkeys: My favorite place in Salt Lake City is a great antiquarian bookstore, run by a man who ran with the Monkey Wrench Gang.
Posted by: liam on July 24, 2002 11:43 AMhuh. it's possible to have a favorite place in salt lake city?
and crash, see if i ever dedicate a thread to you again! *shakes fist*
Posted by: witchstone on July 24, 2002 11:49 AMSee, I don't roll out of bed until 8:30 Mountain Time, then I jump straight into the shower, get out, dry off, get dressed, run to the car, and drive twenty-six miles to work. The upshot of all this is that I usually don't see any new posts until 9:30-10:00 or so, when I slide into my comfy chair at work and settle in for some surfin'.
But thanks for thinking of me anyway. I did enjoy the sparse traffic en route to work today (I only get holidays when the stock markets are closed.)
(And no, it's not possible to have a "favorite place" in Salt Lake. One has a "least objectionable" place.)
Posted by: Crash on July 24, 2002 12:01 PMyou weighed it?
of course not, luigi did. who said romance is dead?
Posted by: witchstone on July 24, 2002 12:24 PMDefinitely "barf". All puking, yakking, horking and other such unapproved activities shall cease henceforth.

or "driving the porcelain bus"
Posted by: kafkaesque on July 24, 2002 01:38 PMShall I regurgitate upon thee
In summer, as hand in hand
We stroll through the lilacs,
Surrounded by kinkajous?
One man drives the porcelain bus
Another hugs the porcelain queen.
It's all just "talking Norwegian".
Posted by: liam on July 24, 2002 02:24 PMI see we're all experts at reliving our previous meal.
Posted by: eyeballkid on July 24, 2002 02:25 PMi once vomited cinnamon bears and red wine. i can still drink wine, but i'm afraid the cinnamon bears have fallen by the wayside.
Posted by: witchstone on July 24, 2002 02:36 PMI didn't realize "Ralph" was a pioneer.
Here was lunch, yet no link so memories only, crash, Pioneer Chicken, Out of Buisness, blame the economy.
I'm sure you all know that when alcohol is involved in the forced eviction of stomach effluvia, it's merely "a casual reverse drink."
Posted by: MarsCrash on July 24, 2002 04:12 PMI've always thought of it as praying to the nice cool floor god...but ya know, I'm weird. :)
Posted by: dejah420 on July 24, 2002 05:48 PMI always heard "talking to Ralph and Earl" when I was a kid.
That, and "pavement pizza".
I'm surprised this thread could go on long without the humble "chunder", (which is best delivered with over-done auzzie-style enunciation, like the crocodile hunter himself : "chun-dah.")
Tabsaco on vanilla ice cream kicks ass, you should all give it a whirl.
Posted by: dong_resin on July 27, 2002 09:50 PM"Chun-dah" works because it's onomatopoeic. Much like "ralph".

We encourage users to post images, especially those hilarous pics of monkeys
wearing dresses or programming for Linux. But posting images that reside on someone
