September 24, 2002 : Just How Tragic Is 9622's "Dammit" Push-Posting?


From the realm of questionable taste, here's the Brains Trust's Grief-O-Meter, designed to realistically measure catastrophes in Dianas and Dandos.

People have said these things about that :

Damn. I didn't register at all. Not enough death, I guess.

jpoulos's jihad on people who got emotionally involved in "American Idol"
15,000 dead, on average 40% cute, in a location of 60% importance. The event had 75% visual impact and the story lasted for 7 days.

jpoulos's jihad on people who got emotionally involved in "American Idol" scores 6.4 Dandos

(10 Dandos = 1 Diana)

Posted by: jpoulos on September 24, 2002 11:29 AM

Take a hint, summabitches!

Posted by: Miguel on September 24, 2002 11:29 AM

Hmmm... This just below a Dando?

Posted by: Miguel on September 24, 2002 11:34 AM

Strangely enough (or perhaps fittingly), Diana's death itself only scores 1 Diana.

I'm too lazy to plug in the stats for when I got kicked off Big Blue.

By the way, who is Dando?

Posted by: ColdChef on September 24, 2002 11:38 AM

see, kimmy, it's not that bad! your speech doesn't even rate a diana on the scale of tragedy.

Posted by: witchstone on September 24, 2002 11:45 AM

This Morning's Events=0.5 Dandos.

Phooey. I shall greive alone it seems.

Posted by: jonmc on September 24, 2002 11:52 AM

Dido?

That's pretty tragic.

Posted by: jpoulos on September 24, 2002 11:53 AM

Only 4 dandos? Maybe it's a walk in the park to you, but it's pretty fucking tragic to me!

Aw, man...

Posted by: Unclefes on September 24, 2002 11:55 AM

FOr those of you counting at home, I gave myself 100% visual impact because I assumed that I would buy it in an interesting, visually stimulating fashion, probably on some security tape, to boot.

Still got nothin', though.

*sulks*

Posted by: Unclefes on September 24, 2002 11:57 AM

You're doing it wrong, Fes!

ColdChef: here's the original Dando.

Posted by: b****fire on September 24, 2002 02:29 PM

Cold Chef & anyone else, I asked several days too early. I will ask again. Is anyone attending a hurricane party? I only heard of these parties after moving to this region of the country. friends in Houston always call to ivite me down to one, they work for the airlines and usually rent a room near the gulf. No work, so what eles to do for kicks, live out air-turbualance while grounded, I guess.

Posted by: Thomcatspike on September 24, 2002 02:43 PM

Thom, I have attended many, many hurricane parties. They are stupid, reckless, irresponsible events.

Also, you will have the best sex of your life.

Posted by: ColdChef on September 24, 2002 02:46 PM

The ColdChef Watch for thursday morning just took on a different perspective.

Posted by: liam on September 24, 2002 02:52 PM

I think Chef ought to blog the storm live, right here on 9622.

Posted by: jpoulos on September 24, 2002 02:54 PM

Including all the blood and gore. That's the best part.

Posted by: jpoulos on September 24, 2002 02:54 PM

I want to see the exciting stats, like how many cows were picked up and placed down gently somewhere else.

Hurricanes love to mess with cows and their little tiny pea brains.

Stupid cows.

Posted by: kafkaesque on September 24, 2002 02:56 PM

You're assuming, of course, that the electricity will still be flowing.

Actually, in Louisiana, you lose lights when a critter farts, so I may be offline for a bit.

God: "Swell, see ya in albany?"

God: "maarah, O.K."

Posted by: clavdivs on September 24, 2002 03:13 PM

Chef, you don't think I brought this down on your head by asking about the hurricane days ago, do you? I mean, that's just crazy-talk, right? Right?!

This sign means, well where you can find a hooker in some countries, bunny. I was just reading about the football team, The Saints and popped over here and your comment reminded me of a guy who I actually sold a sport's logo hat because of that fact.....sorry to lump you in with my tale, I know you're too soft as cotton to be conected to my tale.....

PS, thanks to crash & Kaf, I was able to cut&paste w/o using my mouse, but now it works without having to use the key commnands just fine, thanks guys.

Posted by: Thomcatspike on September 24, 2002 06:25 PM

just so you know, the Bible teaches that all believers are saints. (I know, I know, the Catholic folks have a different spin on it.)

Therefore, I am a thunderSaint. Has nothing to do with mediocre football teams.

Therefore, I am a thunderSaint. Has nothing to do with mediocre football teams.

Bunny it was the insignea for the team, not the actual team name. The insignea is older than the team's logo...Maybe your comment went over my head then you are a Saint...go cowboys*splat* the are sucky this year and next......

Posted by: Thomcatspike on September 24, 2002 07:23 PM

Bunnyfire played Inside Linebacker for the Aints from 78-84.

Many now blame her for the team's continued incompetence.

I was just joking.

Posted by: kafkaesque on September 24, 2002 07:43 PM

Everyone knows the Superdome being built on an Indian Burial Ground is the real reason the Saints are really really bad. Bunnyfire's embarrassingly poor Linebcaker play had little or nothing to do with it.

Posted by: kafkaesque on September 24, 2002 07:45 PM

Drunken Monkey is about a "man" of the third century who roams about the pugilistic world.

Now that sounds familiar. Yeah, I'm figuring this is old news. eep.

Posted by: anathema on September 24, 2002 07:48 PM

I think it is hilarious that New Orleans would have a team called the Saints anyway. I used to live in Pensacola, Florida and I can tell you that almost all the people I knew that went to New Orleans went there with the full intention of being sinners.

off topic-which one of you monkeys gave me this cold? *achoo*

Posted by: Miguel on September 25, 2002 05:03 AM

In Arabic, the word "jihad" means struggling or striving. Those unfamiliar with Islam tend to associate the term with "holy war" and the thought of Muslims attempting to scourge infidels from their lands, or of terrorists claiming their right to terrorize.

You see, my usage was correct. Nyah.

Anathema, you're going to make my brain explode with these hepcat little rock tidbits you keep dropping. You the man, or in case you're not, like, male, you the woman.

I can never keep genders straight. Except UncleFes, who I'm pretty sure is a guy.

Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on September 25, 2002 07:01 AM

That was a long time ago stav, during my early "crazy" period, late 80s-early 90s. He had just gotten back from Australia where he did most of the writing and then sort of refined them while hanging out back in Boston. I always liked the private acoustic living room shows better. You are making me realize that I have a bunch of these stories. I have to ration them out.
The "certain bass player" episode was in '95.

Posted by: anathema on September 25, 2002 07:13 AM

Stav, my kids call me "mom", if that helps.

Posted by: b****fire on September 25, 2002 07:20 AM

Thanks, B****. But I'll probably forget again tomorrow.

A note about posting images:

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 else's server is considered by many to be bandwidth theft. Our thoughts on the matter, along with some solutions to the problem, can be found here. Thanks.
