Great now I have images of Santa/Freddy Krugar.(not sure spelling)
Posted by: Thomcatspike on December 13, 2002 12:13 PMI was going to go run errands, but now I feel like I've given birth to this thread and I have to stay and watch over it.

Posted by: Thomcatspike on December 13, 2002 12:17 PMDon't worry, Tizzie, they grow up quickly. This one already has it's driver's license.
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 12:20 PMHi, I'm TV's A.C. Slater, also known as Mario Lopez.
Posted by: A.C. Slater on December 13, 2002 12:21 PMHa ha ha! I just read this on a Mario Lopez website:
Although widely known for his role as the "high school jock" Slater on the popular NBC comedy series "Saved By The Bell," Mario Lopez has developed into one of the fastest rising stars on television and film.
Really? Fastest rising?
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 12:24 PMHave you seen Mario Lopez' daytime talkshow? I swear I just caught an episode where he and Danny Bonaduce were going over makeup tips with a makeup artist.
Shudder.
Posted by: eyeballkid on December 13, 2002 12:28 PMby the way, tizzie, your thread has now already:
bought condoms at the local supermarket
had sex
tried pot "a few times"
tried coke once, but "didn't really like it"
Really? Fastest rising?
I guess when you co-host a show with Danny Bonaduce and Dick Clark, your rising somewhere?
Posted by: Thomcatspike on December 13, 2002 12:32 PMIs it too early for drinking?
I'd like to know, because I hate to be late for anything.
Posted by: Crash on December 13, 2002 12:36 PMtizzie, don't look now but your thread has recently:
- received an associate's degree in cosmetology
- gotten pregnant with the local mechanic
- gotten married and divorced. twice
- had three babies in 2½ years
- moved in to a luxurious double-wide trailer
this thread has never gotten pregnant! she always uses birth control.
don't listen to pardon me's lies, tizzie.
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 01:17 PMWho actually watched Saved By The Bell is what I wanna know. I have a younger sister who was the mallrat teenybopper to end all mallrat teenyboppers and even she wouldn't watch it. Somebody had to be watching, though.
Actually lame-ass teenage actors do serve a purpose. I remember back as a 15-year-old watching Danny Pintauro(the dorkiest TV teen of all time) talk about getting sex-oriented fan letters.
I figured that if that schuck had groupies, I would be able to find some girl to go on a date with at least. And I did, took 3 more years, but it happened. So, thanks for the inspiration, dork.
that schmuck, I meant to type. What kinda schmuck misspells schmuck.
Posted by: jonmc on December 13, 2002 01:24 PMthis thread has never gotten pregnant! she always uses birth control.
don't listen to pardon me's lies, tizzie.
Well, maybe that's what she tells you, witchstone. I happen to personally know different.
*rolls over, smokes cigarette*
Posted by: pardon me on December 13, 2002 01:29 PMTonight, my friend Travis discovers who killed Laura Palmer.
(We've been rewatching them all, and that episode is slated for this evening. Coffee, donuts, Twin Peaks, Friday the 13th. Sweeeeeeet.)
Posted by: brittney on December 13, 2002 01:29 PMEverything I ever wanted to know about high school I learned watching Saved By the Bell.

Hmph, guess someone should personally be paying child support then, eh?
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 01:45 PMa friend of mine carries around an autograph from Mr. Belding in his wallet.
He got it at a shoot for movie that him and Grizzly Adams were in. Three of us were gonna go up there dressed in bear suits and chase him around, but we got drunk instead.
go figure.
Posted by: tj on December 13, 2002 01:47 PMI watched Saved By the Bell religiously. It was on Saturday mornings here. Usually I was still bundled up on whatever couch I was sleeping on, hung over from the night before and hanging out with friends that shared my love for Tiffani Amber Theissen.
Posted by: eyeballkid on December 13, 2002 01:49 PMAnyone else a bit disheartened by Kelly's enormous sideburns?
Tell me I ain't the only one.
Posted by: brittney on December 13, 2002 01:52 PMKelly kapowski made my nether regions feel all funny.
(oh and here's the movie I was talking about.)
Posted by: tj on December 13, 2002 01:53 PMsaved by the bell and monkey references. comedy gold, I tell ya.
Posted by: tj on December 13, 2002 01:56 PMOK, EBK, the babeage motive I can understand. I used to watch Head Of The Class simply to ogle Khrystyne Haje who played Simone. Plus it had Howard Hesseman(aka Johnny Fever) so it was at least cool by association.
Posted by: jonmc on December 13, 2002 02:03 PMuseless trivia time:
Dennis on that show was Ricky from Better Off Dead
I remember back as a 15-year-old watching Danny Pintauro(the dorkiest TV teen of all time) talk about getting sex-oriented fan letters.
I saw some iterview where he discussed coming out of the closet.
Posted by: Thomcatspike on December 13, 2002 02:21 PMI spent many a saturday morning with a bowl of honeycombs and Saved by the Bell. My favorite was Lisa.
Posted by: jpoulos on December 13, 2002 02:31 PMMore useless trivia. Bridgette Wilson, who played an airhead on Saved By the Bell, was Miss Veronica Vaughn in Billy Madison, and is now married to Pete Sampras.
Posted by: ufez on December 13, 2002 02:41 PMI was laid off on the last Friday the 13th.
*wonders if I should leave work while I am still employed*
Posted by: adampsyche on December 13, 2002 02:43 PMYeah, Danny Pintauro is gayer than a football bat. I saw him at a reading. He was wearing leather pants and a tank top.
Just think of all those perfectly good groupies gone to waste, jonmc.
And for the record, that Kristyne Haje site was really frightening. Like, guy-who-killed-the-actress-on-My-Sister-Sam frightening.
Posted by: cowboy_sally on December 13, 2002 02:43 PMI liken Saved By the Bell to a train wreck. It's horrifying to watch but you can't look away.
My favorite part was the 10 extras who played the rest of the high school.
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 02:45 PMWhat is funny after looking at Danny P's site, one of his pic's reminded me of a good friend of mine. So I googled him, maybe I should watch what I say about folks I don't know personally.
a gay man who brings his outrageously jaded perspective to the world revolving around Santa's lap.
Posted by: Thomcatspike on December 13, 2002 02:52 PMCome on, everyone knew Danny would grow up gay when the storylines started discussing his admiration for professional figure skaters.
Sheesh.
Next thing you know, you'll all be surprised that Alyssa Milano grew up to be a thunderslut.
Posted by: Crash on December 13, 2002 03:17 PMyou leave and someone brings up danny bonaduce, and then it's eyeballkid. the danny bonaduce show once called me to be on their panel.
Posted by: goneill on December 13, 2002 03:27 PMNext thing you know, you'll all be surprised that Alyssa Milano grew up to be a thunderslut.
Well, I'm surprised. Pleasantly surprised.
Posted by: pardon me on December 13, 2002 03:27 PMnah. everyone knew how she was going to turn out when that Teen Steam video came out.
Posted by: tj on December 13, 2002 03:28 PMAlyssa Milano frightens me somewhat.
As do all TV glamazons except for Alyson Hannigan and Sara Rue and they'd probably frighten me if I watched their shows.
Posted by: jonmc on December 13, 2002 03:28 PMto the world revolving around Santa's lap.
Sort of like the whole world is giving Santa a lap dance. Now that's christmassy!
i'm famous, you see. just like miguel.
also - in high school i watch about 6 episodes of saved by the bell in a row while i did my homework. often it was the same episode 6 times.
Posted by: goneill on December 13, 2002 03:30 PMand they'd probably frighten me if I watched their shows.
Hannigan frightened me after last season's Buffy finale, where she got all medieval on everyone's ass. But it was a good kind of frightened. mmmmm...a good kind of frightened....
What? I was just killing time until the Monster Truck show, I promise.
Posted by: jpoulos on December 13, 2002 03:35 PMtizzie, you should be proud. Within the space of 49 comments, your thread went from a "Friday the 13th/tizzie's first post" theme to touch on some or all of the following: Freddy Kreuger, Saved by the Bell, acting as if the thread is a person, teen actors, Adam's layoff, the sexual orientation of Danny Pintauro, Twin Peaks, Danny Bonaduce (and how he almost made goneill more famous than she already is (i.e., like Miguel)), whether Alyssa Milano is thunderslutty or scary (or both), giving Santa lap dances, and Alyson Hannigan.
I'd say that's about par for the course.
Posted by: pardon me on December 13, 2002 03:47 PMthis thread ain't just driftin'... it's got a damn undertow.
Posted by: tj on December 13, 2002 03:51 PMNow Willow's gettin' medieval again on fx, but they're not running the final three episodes of the season....bastards. Um, what? Er, I too was waiting to see the monster truck rally. With Lupo. "Buffy" was just on in the background....I was paying more attention to my beer. Really.
Willow's hot.
Posted by: readymade on December 13, 2002 03:52 PMbuffy is a very good show.
i have a party ever tuesday night where my girl friends come over and we knit and we watch buffy. then the men come over with food they have dug out of the trash and we all feast. (we make the clothes and they scavenge. i like strict gender roles.)
Posted by: goneill on December 13, 2002 04:09 PMI'm truly frightened if we can take down any site other than a geoshitties or tripod one from our traffic.
Posted by: tj on December 13, 2002 04:13 PMbuffy is another one of those shows that i know people who fanatically love it, and then i watch it with them and i'm not impressed, and they say "well, this week's episode was pretty crappy, not representative of the series as a whole blah blah blah." this has also happened to me with the x-files, the sopranos, and other shows i can't think of right now.
i guess it's possible that i have a talent for only watching the worst show in the series (similar to when my parents would always walk into the room when something slightly offensive would happen on a show that up until that moment had been squeaky clean).
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 04:15 PManyway - buffy is a very important part of my life, so when you say you don't like it a little piece of me dies.
Posted by: goneill on December 13, 2002 04:18 PMI want to be alyson hannigans little dress-up monkey.
Posted by: jpoulos on December 13, 2002 04:24 PMHere is evidence of the sideburns in question, but you can only barely see them. As I guessed, she wears her hair over her ears in photos, as not to reveal her hideously long sideburns.
And, damn you people! You are bastard people! I took a nap and dreamed of Screech.
Posted by: brittney on December 13, 2002 04:27 PMbastard people! YES!
Anyway, brittney's link above has lots and lots of popups associated with it. be forewarned.
Posted by: jpoulos on December 13, 2002 04:30 PMOoh, sorry about that. Since installing this, I don't have any pop-ups.
Posted by: brittney on December 13, 2002 04:34 PMI don't know if you guys have ever noticed this, but "Wild Thing" and "Funky Cold Medina," both by the Artist Tone Loc, are really pretty much the same song with only slightly different words.
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 04:36 PM(I was not lying about the dream. I am still shaken.)
Posted by: brittney on December 13, 2002 04:39 PMI only watch old reruns of M*A*S*H, Barney Miller and the like, it's like video vailum for me. All the new shows that I enjoyed get canceled like Homicide.
Also, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and the Alphabet Song.
And the Neptunes "Lovely Lovely" is a total rip of Shoyue Weenie's "Mochi Mochi".
Posted by: jpoulos on December 13, 2002 04:43 PMi'm so back where i left off before i got addicted to prescription diet pills.
Posted by: goneill on December 13, 2002 04:44 PMI don't know if you guys have ever noticed this, but "Wild Thing" and "Funky Cold Medina," both by the Artist Tone Loc, are really pretty much the same song with only slightly different words.
Hasta la vista, baby.
Posted by: ColdChef on December 13, 2002 04:46 PMAlso, Loc's "Cheeba Cheeba" was a sort of rallying cry for us in college.
Man, Don't cha hate it when you ain't go no weed
It seems about tha time you really feel tha need
To get high, get full, you know get blasted
Keep ya singin' tha high it really lasted
Rollin' around tryin' not to get stopped
By tha boyz tha pigs you know tha cops
Pull into one spot to see what they're all about
Suckers noddin' their head, tellin' you they're all out
Imagine my embarrassment when singing along to "Funky Cold Medina," instead of singing "So I took her to my crib and everything went as planned" I sang "So I took her to my house, one thing led to another" from "Wild Thing."
I'm still blushing now.
Posted by: witchstone on December 13, 2002 04:51 PMUnlike my running of words together, which is merely a charming gaff.
Posted by: readymade on December 13, 2002 04:58 PMWow, look at all the places my thread has been, all the people it has met and the new words it's learned. In the meantime, I went Christmas shopping and bought nothing, then spent over a hundred bucks at the liquor store. Happy days are here again!
Posted by: tizzie on December 13, 2002 05:06 PMAlso, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and the Alphabet Song.
Ba ba ba Black Sheep have any wool.... too.
tizzie, you should be proud. Within the space of 49 comments, your thread went from a "Friday the 13th/tizzie's first post"
You were jinxed, tizzie right befor I opened up this thread my pod-buddy anounced to the office staff, It's Friday the 13th.
i watch about 6 episodes of saved by the bell in a row while i did my homework.
goneill, 6hrs of homework a night...
Boy what high school did you go to. Teachers we no stinkin teacher, just load-them-up-send-them-home w/ a ton of books they'll learn.
actually, pardon me's description of my thread's activities shows tremendous insight into the life cycle of the native Kentuckian. I feel so proud.
On the plus side, she still has all her own teeth.
Posted by: tizzie on December 13, 2002 05:17 PMPssst....
I just finished uploading all of my honeymoon photos @ ofoto.com.
If you'd like a peek, send me your email address, and I'll send you a link. If you use the "slideshow" option, you can even add comments, but please keep them somewhat clean.
I'm warning you, though. There are six hundred pictures, so you may not want to go through them one by one.
tizzie, I was down in lovely Dayton, OH Wednesday -- not far from your neck of the woods. Had I known you were buying a hundred bucks worth of booze I might have headed further south instead of back north.
Posted by: pardon me on December 13, 2002 05:27 PMAnd, to answer the impending question,
NO, they're not "personal" photos.

Posted by: ColdChef on December 13, 2002 05:29 PMhey - no dissin' kentuckians around these parts. (i'm still in love, btw.)
and, correct me if i'm wrong, but saved by the bell is a 30 min show.
that still sounds like a lot though... ok, in the interest of honesty, i watched .7th of a saved by the bell episode once in between marching band practice and dress rehearsals for the school musical
Posted by: goneill on December 13, 2002 05:30 PMI'm off to do some Christmas shopping, I'll send the invites later this evening.
Posted by: ColdChef on December 13, 2002 05:30 PMOh, and I once met Dustin Diamond (TV's "Screech"). It was hard not to call him "Screech" to his face.
He had a goatee.
Posted by: ColdChef on December 13, 2002 05:32 PMHey, any monkey who gets close to my neck of the woods should look me up! I do have a still out back. Errr, I mean, a liquor store right up the corner.
and goneill, I am glad you are in love with that Kentuckian. The whole state is right pleased.
Posted by: tizzie on December 13, 2002 05:38 PMnew york is never pleased with anything. that's part of the charm of kentucky. such fresh-faced enthusiasm.
but don't believe tizzy, she'll say something like, 'sure i'll come to louisville' and then you'll exchange voicemail and then she won't come at the last second.
Posted by: goneill on December 13, 2002 05:48 PMoh, the shame. It's true, it's all true.
but I can change! I can be a better person, honest I can.
I just finished uploading all of my honeymoon photos @ ofoto.com.
Cry havoc, and let slip the Orcas of Photoshop!
See you 'round, monkeybrethren and -sistren. Off to Canada for a few weeks for the first time in 5 years, and probably offline most if not all of that time. Mmmm, back bacon, beer, and rye whiskey. In a blender.
My bro Barry and I will also be enjoying a certain bottle of fine hooch as we do some rememberin'. Thanks, and see you all next year...
Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on December 13, 2002 08:49 PMI just realize that I havent said anything over at that "other site" in almost a week. Prolly cause it's either pointlessly polarizing political polemics or stupid one-liner fests. I'll still read, but if that's the best conversation they can offer, I may leave them to there own devices for a while.
Here we have drunk chimps, half-naked cowboys and gay child stars in leather pants. It's a happy place.
Posted by: jonmc on December 13, 2002 09:00 PMJonmc--I noticed the same thing about myself last week; not only had I not commented (I hardly ever do, and rarely in polarized political debates, not including the "murder of Santa in Florida" thread today), but I hadn't even visited in more than two weeks. I think I should make a very public display of my MeFi departure in the grey pages, just to start a firestorm. Ha!
No, I guess that's a very poor idea.
Posted by: readymade on December 13, 2002 09:09 PMIt must be the weekend. It's always so quiet in here...
Posted by: readymade on December 13, 2002 09:53 PMWell, it's gone now. Not tizzie's first post (Yay! Lotta bacchanalian dancing and clapping round her!). Friday the 13th.
Can one of my admin friends remind me of my login words? Or did you give my privies to Tizzie, you bastards?
Would that constitute incitement to provoke a sex change by the way?

very zen.
Posted by: jpoulos on December 14, 2002 10:31 AMYou are wise, sensei, and no longer are your tags astray. Unlike Ms. Portman, above, whose tag must be making her arse itch.

I hardly just comment, most of my comments included a question of late.
But what I can't figure out is,I'm still in the top 25 of comments???
One,rarely do I comment in the grey. Two my comments in the blue don't even come near all the FPPs posted in a day??? I came to conclude all the newbies are not haveing their comments counted, Maybe...or that many folks don't come anymore... ;(
But what is worse is my brain is not being stimulated.....

It was the Beanie Babies that threw me. I don't understand why anyone would ever talk of Beanie Babies.
Posted by: witchstone on December 17, 2002 09:20 AMYou remember way back when, when women used to scramble over each other to get the rare "mole beanie baby" or the collector's wet-dream "rufus the cockroach beanie?" And they would go for hundreds of dollars? What do you want to bet that their collections have financially flatlined in value?
There's something both sad and just about it.
Posted by: readymade on December 17, 2002 03:25 PMI think it's kind of weird to collect stuff that is intentionally designed to be collectible.
Except the Spock plates. Those are sure to go up in value.
Posted by: kafkascampi on December 17, 2002 03:39 PMAaahh! My sister was one of those women. She carried on with the insanity long after her daughter had moved on to other hobbies. Vacations were sacrificed for a Blue Peanut with the original red tag. There was no reasoning with her. It ended only when she belatedly acquired a taste for alcohol. Vacations are now sacrificed for vodka. I'm hoping the beanies will one day be used by the kids to make art or bongs.
