All are welcome. All welcome, go into the light...
Posted by jpoulos at January 14, 2005 09:45 AMJust a quick note on how things work:
Everyone is welcome to join in on the discussion. Just jump right in.
After you've been around a while (a couple of weeks or so), send an email to admin AT 9622 DOT net reminding us, and we'll hook you up with posting privileges. It's not a perfect system; We just need some way to keep out the trolls.
Posted by: jpoulos on January 14, 2005 09:54 AMWasn't the first rule of 9622.net "you don't talk about 9622.net"? Wasn't it?
Oh, wait - maybe it was "bring enough for everyone if you're going to do that in here". Sorry.

Posted by: tizzie on January 14, 2005 10:01 AMso you guys stole the poo-flinging thing from monkeyfilter? j/king.
what's everybody's a/s/l?
I just realized my email address had defaulted back to my real one on my last few comments. Damn. Hello, v|agra marketers! C'mon in!

Posted by: adam on January 14, 2005 10:34 AMMan, if that crazy clown doll comes to life and starts strangling me I'm gonna be pissed!
Posted by: tj aka TayHota(to you newcomers) on January 14, 2005 10:57 AMOh my god, adam's an android. I guess that makes Jasper a real chip off the old ... something.
Posted by: tizzie on January 14, 2005 11:26 AMWhy would anyone want to join this site? It's failed!
Haven't we all had enough failure in our lives?
Posted by: filmgoerjuan on January 14, 2005 11:52 AMWe wrote the friggin' book on flingin' of the poo, y'all. If anyone's enforcing copyright on the concept, it's us.
But, being failures, we simply release our most potentially lucrative invention to the rest of the world. Because we're about the people, not the blow and the hot rims on the Jag.
No. We're about the people. And the hours of beautiful, vital, life-purpose-giving oral pleasures we might give and receive from the people.
Come. Join us. Come.
Posted by: Chico on January 14, 2005 12:10 PMjust don't fling any this way while i'm having my 'people' contact chico's. it's quite the turn off.
Posted by: danostuporstar on January 14, 2005 12:31 PMsorry, you are way to new to be making condtions...
*pulls out the MegaLauncherFeces9000*
oh, it's on!
Posted by: tj on January 14, 2005 12:37 PMWait. I paid Fes in chichi shoes and tailored pants. You mean I didn't have to? I could have just walked in with no by-your-leave?
Posted by: readymade on January 14, 2005 01:29 PMYou know, I wouldn't boink that guy with the frozen smile on his stupid face, even if his willy was the size of a Louisville Slugger.
And I'm talking about the guy in the "enhancement" commercial - but the same statement would apply to GWB.
Posted by: tizzie on January 14, 2005 01:32 PMRandy, but not THAT randy, eh tizzie?
I don't think GWB's wife would bump nasties with him either.
Posted by: readymade on January 14, 2005 01:34 PMAnd by "him" I mean her husband. I don't know about her boinking the guy in the commercial. Maybe she's got a sekrit life. Who knows?
Posted by: readymade on January 14, 2005 01:35 PMreadymade, I was going to bring a by-your-leave as a hostess gift but I couldn't find one in a decent color. So I just brought poo.
*emabrrassed*
Posted by: idest on January 14, 2005 01:56 PMDoes anyone else think that when deep impact hits that comet, a swarm of these are going to come pouring out and take over the world?
Posted by: eyeballkid on January 14, 2005 01:57 PMSee, where I come from, we don't fling poo, we put in paper bags and light them.
Posted by: me3dia on January 14, 2005 02:53 PMOh, we didn't say the flung poo couldn't be bagged and flaming as well, me3dia.
Think of it as a cross-over style. All the fun of flinging with less of the work of doorbell ditch-it. You don't always get the fun stomping part, though.
Posted by: aine42 on January 14, 2005 03:04 PMWell, I hope you are all satisfied. You couldn't police your own snark, you couldn't behave, you had to turn Meta into your own personal warzone.
Now Matt has been woken from his slumber and is ruling with an iron fist. No more innocent fun to be had.
I hope you are all satisfied.
Posted by: dana on January 14, 2005 03:20 PMBy which I mean, of course:
LET THE POO FLINGING BEGIN!
Posted by: dana on January 14, 2005 03:20 PMhey all! have you seen the wily and elusive pnada? Unfortunately it is not a monkey, but perhaps we could breed it with a lemur or something.

by the way the other day i read the whole 9622. really. all of it. i could have read a book. but i dint. i read 9622. please award me some sort of prize. for magnificence or plodding stubborness or god knows what. there can't be too many people that did it on one long chunk. i still have scars.
Posted by: 31d1 on January 14, 2005 03:33 PMYes, but it's a classic in its own right.

Comedy gold!
Posted by: tizzie on January 14, 2005 04:07 PMyou know, reading it is nothing.. you didn't have the anxiety of waiting 10 minutes for it to load to see if it loading was gonna cause the server to go down.
Posted by: tj on January 14, 2005 05:42 PMI'm actually very impressed that someone read that whole thread.
Did it...y'know, hurt?
Posted by: jpoulos on January 14, 2005 06:24 PMI once printed out and read all of 1142. It was cute, but terribly one-sided.

"There's a monkey for every wino and wine for every monkey."
Wine and monkeys together? What's not to like? Plus, cheap.
Posted by: readymade on January 14, 2005 11:51 PMWhich is to say, the wine is cheap, not me.
Er, well...
Posted by: readymade on January 14, 2005 11:53 PMPapio wines are delicious, fruity and priced to drink every day.
Papio supports primate conservation
Shit, I'm sold. I may go try to find some of this this weekend. There are two dealers in my zip code.
Posted by: ufez on January 15, 2005 01:38 AMIt's a fine concoction. I bought it for the label, I stayed for the price (and lack of butane aftertaste. It wasn't bad!). Plus, enviro-hooch!
Posted by: readymade on January 15, 2005 01:48 AMI've had the monkeywine! I admit I bought it simply because of the label. I think I had the syrah. It's not bad, actually. And cheap!
Posted by: dana on January 15, 2005 09:51 AMI got drunk last night and then wandered into a church on Avenue A. People were speaking in tounges and stuff and they had a video screen with song lyrics going. They let me use the restroom, too. It was kinda cool.

An introductory 9622 dung flinging monkey (carrying case not included).
Posted by: slackagogo on January 15, 2005 05:21 PMArm the pootacult! The enemy is at the gates!
Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on January 15, 2005 07:49 PMnaw just a harmless, unarmed, poor, defenseless canuck, stavros.
Posted by: squeak on January 16, 2005 04:28 AMI only drink monkey wine that is made out of actual monkeys.
Posted by: Fes on January 16, 2005 10:22 AMDana, you plagiarist!
In ref to I hope you are all satisfied speech.
Really, you don't want people thinking you're me.
Meanwhile, anybody have an empty coffee pot? I gotta go number two.
*stares at cappucino in disbelief*
I had to order "extra foam"....
Posted by: jonmc on January 16, 2005 05:56 PMHey, you better appreciate that foam. It cost many monkeys a good chafe.
Posted by: cosmonik on January 16, 2005 07:27 PMThe new Butterfinger Crisp bars are quite fucking badass. I'm enjoying my first ever one (purchased here) and it's quite the sucrose trip, yo.
Posted by: jonmc on January 16, 2005 09:11 PMDude.
Jesus is on your lawn?
Well at least you don't have to worry about the puddles or anything.
Posted by: jonmc on January 16, 2005 09:19 PMYou wouldn't believe my utility bills, with a ten foot neon Jesus on the lawn.
Posted by: kaf on January 16, 2005 09:23 PMThere's a Camper Van Beethoven joke begging for release right about now, but I'm not going to go there.
Posted by: yhbc on January 16, 2005 09:24 PMI also got a few of the Nestle Crunch with Peanut Butter which is "Limited Edition."
That's becoming a big thing with candy today, your Limited Edition shtick, which is putting me under a lot of pressure, dammit.
Posted by: jonmc on January 16, 2005 09:31 PMAnyway, glad to see all the traffic here. Hope you are all doing well.
Posted by: kaf on January 16, 2005 09:32 PMThe above picture of my corner bodega is from the superlative outer-borough photo site, Bridge & Tunnel Club which among other things has some superlative pics of me, vidiot, & chico's neighborhood including our favorite outdoor drinkin' spot, and this page of photos of my street, including my building (I won't tell ya which, gotta maintain some privacy).
Posted by: jonmc on January 16, 2005 09:41 PMI missed Queens when I was on the east coast, but man those shots of Ditmars Boulevard are nice.
My current abode is shiney by night, but it's just got less soul.
Posted by: cosmonik on January 16, 2005 10:44 PMIndeed. It has been year.
Been busy, with a new job and side projects like terraforming Mars. You know how it is.
Posted by: kaf on January 17, 2005 12:20 AMKafkaesque! I thought you were in the witness protection program!
Posted by: tizzie on January 17, 2005 08:06 AMOur office here at the Corporate Entity was burgled over the weekend. Some enterprising soul threw a bench through the patio window and took all the laptops (not my old Dell box, no way!) Anyway, the window hole's making it a bit drafty, what with the 9 degrees outside and all.
Posted by: tizzie on January 17, 2005 09:48 AMWell, yes, I had to report to the Office Manager about the missing items in my area. You know, the brand new Ipod and the Rolex that were in my drawer. And the cash! Hey, I have to keep a LOT of cash on hand here, in case my Rolex and my Ipod stop working, and I need new ones!
So, yeah, she's gonna turn that in to the insurance.
And then all of us monkeys are going to Cozumel for the rest of the winter. So start packing, baby!
*strips down to his skivvies, slathers himself in coconut-scented goo, loads up on rum drinks with umbrellas in them*
Posted by: Vidiot on January 17, 2005 02:38 PMOoo, nice site, Jon. Good find.
(Every meal's a festival at Chicken Festival!)
Posted by: Vidiot on January 17, 2005 02:39 PMSadly, there's no picture of this horribly named joint's astoria location.
Posted by: jonmc on January 17, 2005 03:15 PMNot even a "hello, welcome back" from you people?
*ducks*
Posted by: bunnyfire/konolia on January 17, 2005 05:29 PMOh, welcome back, fubbynire.
I could've used you're guidance at that church in Alphabet City the other night. Although, I was obviously schnockered, the parishoners were quite freindly. The preacher was a dude from Yugoslavia, who actually had quite a sense of humor and definite NYC attitude, cracking jokes about how hard Christian hospitality is in a city where closets get rented out for $1500 a month.
Posted by: jonmc on January 17, 2005 10:05 PMSounds like you did fine on your own, actually. What church was it?
Posted by: bunnyfire/konolia on January 17, 2005 11:50 PMI don't know.
It was in a basement on 7th street. It had a nice restroom. They yelled loudly when the sensed I was going to wander into the wrong room. I guess they didn't want me peeing n the minister's desk.
Posted by: jonmc on January 17, 2005 11:53 PM9622.net: begging for release right about now.
