Unhand him, woman!!
He'sss Miiiine....

Posted by: jonmc on July 1, 2004 02:40 PMAh, Videodrome!
Happy birthday, Mr. Diot.
Long live the new flesh!
Posted by: kaf on July 1, 2004 02:51 PMYay! It's vidiot's birthday. I would like to thank his momma personally, but vidiot told her that I was mute for some reason.
Posted by: dana on July 1, 2004 03:08 PMWow, you share a birthday with Canada, dude!
But I don't think that means anything.
Posted by: salmonberry on July 1, 2004 03:57 PMWell, you'll either find all the peppermint patties or you'll find a lot of cavities.
A big stinking birthday, you feckin' bastard. Oh yeah, and I'm your birthday gift. Where should I sit?
Posted by: Chico on July 1, 2004 04:00 PMCheers Vidiot to a Wonderful Day on your Birthday - may it be full of “durbnk” times.
u-fez and I {meeting up tonight} will drink a shot honoring your day. Any suggestions on a shot to toast it with? {I’ll check back}
Hold it. Canada and Vidiot on the same day? Do you think they'd give me citizenship for knowing him? No? I guess I'll just have to just marry you then, salmonberry.
Happy Birthday Vidiot! How 'bout some hot Canadian on American lovin' for you?
Posted by: readymade on July 1, 2004 04:06 PMBun aniversere, Messure Vidiot, Canada stands on guard for thee!
And hertslickinggluckshvunchsumegeberstag! (or whatever it was my roomate just said.)
Happy Birthday Vidiot!
Please remember to add a dash of Stewart's Key Lime Soda to all of your margarita-on-the-rocks. This is my birthday present to you.
Posted by: Mars Crash on July 1, 2004 07:00 PMI’ll be on Holliday starting tomorrow until July 12 - So – another shout from me is needed in this post.
Muitos parabéns pelo seu/teu aniversário! - Happy Birthday Migs.{july 3rd iirc}
If I missed anyone else - July is a big party around here: Please don't get “durbnk” w/o me - Happy times on your Birthday!
Miguel, you bastard. You know them damn Portugueezer's shoulda lost to England!
Posted by: kaf on July 1, 2004 08:01 PMDid greece just win something in this soccer contraption? Cause the whole neighborhood was running around honking horns and waving greek flags today.
Posted by: jonmc on July 1, 2004 08:47 PMThey put up a good fight, the poor, gutless, talentless, stylistically challenged sods, I'll grant you that.
But it takes real COLHÕES to do as our goalkeeper Ricardo did: defend a penalty with no gloves and, a few seconds later, score another. In fact, the winner.
Spain and Holland got their medicine too. And now that all the big, bloated millionaires have been deported (France, Germany, Italy) it's all Greece and Portugal - the two tiniest, shiniest, poorest, booziest, laziest countries in the EU!
Is it fun, though? Hell, yes! :)
Posted by: Miguel on July 1, 2004 09:38 PMAlso, Kaf - if you're so English, how come you use an apostrophe in your plurals, i.e. "Portugeezer's"? ;)
Posted by: Miguel on July 1, 2004 09:41 PMJon, if you don't get soccer, have you considered tennis? This distinguished Russian will be playing Serena Williams in the Wimbledon Final and, since the Cold War is over, I wonder where your sympathies lie.
Posted by: Miguel on July 1, 2004 10:03 PMThis distinguished Russian
Which, translated, means 17 year old hottie. Much better than that Anna K chick.
*ahem*
Back to the lecture at hand...
may I be so imprudent as to present, the penulitimate monkey b-day shoutout:
mixed media, including sharpie, notebook paper, plastic monkey, almond pocky, and Tuaca lemon drops.
granted, this was ~ three hours and 6 games of pool ago.
Oh happy days, vidjit!
Posted by: ufez on July 2, 2004 01:39 AMyeah, well. the pic's here. Now sod off and go make daddy a drink.
Posted by: ufez on July 2, 2004 01:41 AMA stylistic theme is emerging here, what with the half-drunk beers and plastic monkeys.
Tradition! [/tevye]
Posted by: tizzie on July 2, 2004 09:23 AMMiguel, you fail to notice the significance of the misplaced apostrophe, a crushing indictment of the depths to which Figo and your faux-Ronaldo will stoop. For this tick indeed can only be the instep of fate!
Posted by: kaf on July 2, 2004 11:33 AM*surrenders helplessly and even gratefully to Kaf's brilliance, ruing the day* :)
But my Jewish rib, considering we play the Greeks on Sunday for the title, pounces on your most wonderful sentence:
For this tick indeed can only be the instep of fate
And says, with an East End tailor's accent:
Ticks? I'll give you ticks. May you get Lyme's disease already, for your filthy mouth, with little hope of remission and no money for antibiotics. How can your own mother, that saintly woman, be less than heart-broken with a son like you?
And about Figo! Do you not like figs? Are you better than us, that you prefer more sophisticated fruits, like that kiwi? Or the dreaded kumquat?
Nu, suddenly you're too good for us.
But Portugal and Greece rule. Small countries, massive histories. Discovered the world of the mind and the world itself. Excell in brunettes. Have good olives (and I know you like olives, Kaf) and, to put it mildly, nice weather. Enjoy dancing. Drunkeness still considered a duty. Fresh fish, lightly grilled, a human right, up there with free speech.
What did Anthony Quinn know? He played Portuguese and Greeks in the movies but he was actually Mexican. His real name was Raimundo Quiroga Montana - a lie.
Posted by: Miguel on July 2, 2004 11:55 AMI am always amused over the fact that Figo is, well, not very, IMO.
(Figo is italian slang for a male Hottie, capital-Haitch style.)
Posted by: romakimmy on July 2, 2004 12:01 PMEr, lest I incur the Wrath of Miguel, that's not an indictment against the Portogese, merely an observation.
And big huge dork that I am, i forgot the imprtant bits: Auguri Vidiot & Ufez (whose other thread i initally missed)!
Posted by: romakimmy on July 2, 2004 12:09 PMWait a minute, Kimmy - isn't fica the Fellowship of Indonesian Christians of America? :)
Posted by: Miguel on July 2, 2004 12:13 PMHappy belated day, vids. The bbq at my house next weekend will have to be one for the both of us, as I am a mere 9 days away from a harrowing 28 y.o.
Posted by: mr. psyche on July 2, 2004 12:42 PMWow. First the apostrophe thing and now that horrendous misspelling! I rool.
Posted by: kaf on July 2, 2004 01:30 PMEvidence that once you get beyond 28, the old brain starts to go.
Posted by: tizzie on July 2, 2004 01:41 PMhappy happy happy happy happy happy
birthday birthday birthday birthday birthday
and many moooorrrreeeeee!
:)
Wow. Thanks, monkeys! I feel well and truly touched. (Now I have to go take a shower.)
(And actually, it was the day before Canada Day -- my natal anniversary is the 30th. So I don't share it with Canada, but I do share it with Mike Tyson, Susan Hayward, Lena Horne, and Yngwie Fuckin' Malmsteen.)
Posted by: Vidiot on July 7, 2004 01:14 PMA 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.
