That's fantastic. I pray, pray, I'm kewl enough to say that someday. Especially if he didn't laugh when he said it.

But would he have been able to watch Tivo while he was locked up?

On second thought, don't answer that.

"...and I'd be out by now."

Oh man, is that funny. I can't wait to be married long enough to use that line.

apo, there are probably some jurisdictions where you'd already qualify.

Since Ogged isn't checking comments, now is an opportune moment for me to post this picture I took of Ogged at the derby last summer.

Having known Ogged since he was but a weeee-little Ogged-let, let me assure that he looks nothing like that... His turban is red and he wouldn't be caught dead on anything less than a Harley.

I were your age, I'd have shut the hell up about having to use my mommy's computer?

That's just too damned sad.

Sharyn McCrumb novel: "If I killed him when I met him, I'd be out of prison now." Very funny book.

(As are her "Bimbos of the Death Sun" and "Zombies of the Gene Pool," and many others.)

So why don't you go somewhere else and cry your eyes out, Fcb.

Also, try not to make a habit of making clueless comments (ogged is visiting his mom). It makes you come across as a dick.

a below-average dick.

Especially since the post immediately below makes it clear he's in town for a family occasion.

How can you know how old someone is and miss something like that is a puzzle.

Oh come on. It may have amused at least one other reader.

Alternate snappy(ish) comeback:

Headline: Chopper Makes Use of Dick For Own Amusement

And hey looky, I made a real live actual cock joke, not just a reference to making cock jokes. Cool.

Plus, I've left open quotation mark kibbitzing for w-lfs-n or Weiner, not to mention jokes about the use/mention distinction.

I think this thread is going over 100 for sure.

Chopper Makes Use of Dick For Own Amusement

Yeah, you can pretty much take this one as a given. You might even say it's a universal postulate.

I could have a chance right now for that line. How long does one get for murder?

Of course, one of the conditions for staying married this long is to not make comments like that.

Another one to avoid - "Hello, I'd like to introduce you to my future ex-wife."

Was Googling to try to figure out where that line originates--it doesn't put you in good company.

'you' is generic, not intended as a shot at Tripp.

Can it be intended as a shot at Fcb, for being such a dick?
