oh, and that "cornrow fishmouth" skit (as it was called on the BBs) was pretty bad, but I started laughing when (spoils) - Beryllium Nov 9, 12:03
Oh wow, I think I found the *perfect* Christmas present for Murphy. This is just...wow. (If CT is smart, he'd buy one for Darwin, too.) -- (link) - kelly Nov 9, 11:57 2
- chewable dildo? -- nm - TFox Nov 9, 11:57 1
  - i'm no expert but i don't think thats the right hole to use such a thing -- nm - Danedukenuuk Nov 9, 12:00
Question from SNL this weekend. Did they happen to do a Kristin Wig 'Gilly' skit by any chance this week? -- nm - Jovian Nov 9, 11:51 17
- No, there wasn't a Gilly skit. Last one I saw was with Barrymore. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 11:51 16
  - also, I think the Barrymore one might have been the only Gilly one I've seen, unless there was one with pajamas ... -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 11:59
  - thanks! I love Gilly. -- nm - Jovian Nov 9, 11:53
  - correct. -- nm - TFox Nov 9, 11:51
  - (There was, however, a far-superior Penelope skit. Love those.) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 11:51 12
    - no *way*. Gilly > Penelope. -- nm - TFox Nov 9, 11:52 11
      - You guys are nuts. - nubby Nov 9, 12:03 1
        
        My aunt is a penelope. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 12:04
      - True dis. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Nov 9, 11:56
      - saaaaaaaaay ... znufrii, what do you think? Is penelope better than gilly? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 11:54
      - Well, Gilly does have the dance, which is great... - Beryllium Nov 9, 11:53 6
        
        There's an idea: a Formidable Opponent style Gilly/Penelope face off. -- nm - Max Nov 9, 11:54 5
        
        I think Penelope has worn out its welcome. Another character I think is dead after this week: Nicholas Fain. - TFox Nov 9, 11:57 4
        
        Agreed. (nm) - musubi Nov 9, 12:00 1
        
        they over-feature her because she's awesome. I think they need more Jason Sedakis, though. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 12:01
        
        Yeah, Fehn was super-lame. (Although I was told "This is like listening to YOU tell a story" during that skit. :) ) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 11:57 1
        
        ha! -- nm - kelly Nov 9, 11:58

- Not the year, the month. Particularly since car dealerships do Black Friday deals as well. -- nm - David Nov 9, 11:51 1

- I went into the "Movies" forum the other day, It's a freaking disaster. - MDH Nov 9, 11:41 5
  - I have an incentive to not visit HSX.com. I visit hsxtt.com for SlackerTalk. If I visited hsx.com, then it would always pop up in my awesome bar. -- nm - Mop (228 lbs) Nov 9, 11:43
  - *cries* -- nm - Roger More Nov 9, 11:43 3
    - Seriously take a read through, I can't even read it anymore. -- nm - MDH Nov 9, 11:44 2

        What? No Super-Wedgie? (nm) - musubi Nov 9, 12:05
      - the real question is, would they have done anything had the video not made it to the internet... -- nm - znufrii Nov 9, 11:54 4
        
        It's amazing. The cameramen clearly realized how dirty she was, because they focused on her away from the ball numerous times. - musubi Nov 9, 11:58
        
        i concur that that question is real. - TFox Nov 9, 11:56 2
        
        The opponents would have had a good case for putting a complaint though, if the video evidence was available. - celedhring Nov 9, 12:03 1

      - There's precedent for charging someone for actions in a sporting contest, I'm sure. Marty McSorley was charged for using his hockey stick as a weapon - musubi Nov 9, 11:50 8
        
        easiest defense case ever........ - dogbert Nov 9, 11:56 5
