This may be the funniest thing I've ever seen on these boards. How many got the joke? Or was it even on purpose?=..



It was definitely on purpose. Three of us are big fffans, we didn't know it was coming but we got it right away. I immediately piped up with "You get a wife and all I get is a dumbass stick sounds like its rainin'??" zaniness ensued. I think the families present thought we were nuts.

Almost brought a tear to my eye...

Now that is precious and HIGH-larious all in one felled swoop.

From signs seen about Minneapolis as I'm riding along to a shopping excursion with the housemates:

Washburn Community Library, on Washburn Avenue

Inaara LiteSpa (yup, spelled that way)

Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church

Makes me smile in the back seat for no apparent reason.

I got called out this weekend for quoting Firefly in the middle of an argument with my wife.

manwithpez: I don't know why I have to cook for all these people. I don't even like grilling that much...I mean for you guys its okay, but not for a bunch of people I hardly know.

wifewithpez: Why can't you just like to grill like every other normal man!

manwithpez: In the seven years we've known each other I would think it is abundantly clear (I know that this sounds like a strange and overworded thing to say in an argument with your wife, but I do talk this way...drives her batty)that I am not every other "NORMAL" man!

wifewithpez: Well, you should try!

manwithpez: Woman, you are completely off your nut!

wifewithpez: Don't you quote Firefly at me!

And, in this short conversation with my son, who had just farted:

'lilmanwithpez: My FARTED DATTY!

manwithpez: Son, I'm trying to think of a way you could be more disgusting...it's just not coming to me.

He does it again and laughs, laughs, and laughs!

manwithpez: Could you not do that while we're...EVER!

wifewithpez: Don't listen to Daddy, honey...He's just been watching too much TV lately.

Anytime my wife and I watch a movie were what appears to be a main character is killed off quickly, she usually exclaims the same thing...much as she did when Kaylee got shot in Serenity.

wifewithpez: Fuckin' Joss Whedon!

I'll be sitting here at work, and just think about her saying that, and crack up...

Kaylee: "What's so damn important about being proper? It don't mean nothing out here in the black."
Simon: "It means more out here. It's all I have..."

That's so funny!
We should get wifewithpez and kathieisall together so they can piss and moan about their dumass husbands who can't stop quoting Firefly!
"Does he say 'ain't' all the time now? Yeah, does he keep sayin' " I aim to misbehave" over and over? yes." It could go on for hours!ha ha ha

Plus: sonisall now sings the FF song on his own now. Says he just likes to.
Little copycat.

Sadly, there's not an emoticon I can find that's suitable for just how damn funny that is. Thanks for sharing, and thank you wifewitpez!

Sometimes, trying to produce a Firefly moment can backfire...Well, not backfire so much as just not work..case in point:

manwithpez (to my 2 year old son): Son, say "I aim to misbehave."

'lilmanwithpez: (Stares blankly)

manwithpez: Say "I aim to misbehave."

'lilmanwithpez: (Grins, but says nothing)

manwithpez: Say "I....aim...."

wifewithpez: Alexander, say "I.....aim..."

'lilmanwithpez: NO!

And he laughs maniacally.

manwithpez: Huh! I guess he aims to behave.

And, my daughter now no longer hums the rest of the song, but just the opening chords...Maybe I haven't been forcing them to watch "Pireply" enough lately...

Kaylee: "What's so damn important about being proper? It don't mean nothing out here in the black."
Simon: "It means more out here. It's all I have..."

Is there a way I can post pictures directly to this site? I have a photo that I cannot describe in words, you have to see it yourself.

Really, have to see it.

I have recently looked at my voter registration and I am happy to say I am an Independent (no actual party affiliation aside from Independent, but still.)

And my girlfriend at the moment is refered to as Baobei.

And I tend to say gorramit when things don't go my way.

Does that make me obsessed?

Reaver in Riviera

You can add an image directly to the Blue Sun Room...At least I did, meaning I didn't have to get it hosted anywhere first,if that's what you mean...
