Grex Accordions Item 146: New Item (generic: less price, more value)
Entered by font on Fri Aug 22 05:39:41 UTC 1997:

Flobsy be bop.  Time to answer questions.
Why is the sky that gawd awful collor?  Can't they change it without  damaging
the environent?
this place needs drapes.  DRAPES!
Why are there many many stores selling wallpaper?
Ping my brain??????
Are there any sugestions for top ten lists?
Poetry random and ballistic?  Or has it been outlawed?
(If it has, why does that stop you?)
(perhaps is should be to *INCOURAGE* you)
Hey, why aren't more poems written with every line ending in a question mark?
Remember kids, when answering these questions, be verbose, but don't be
richard (or whatever he's calling himself)  And let's *not* make it a 
richard rant-fest!

23 responses total.

Do you object to poems written with every line ending in a question mark?
Would you perhaps like to see more of them?
Would you mind if I entered some?
Do I have enough energy to think of one to enter?


#2 of 23 by font on Mon Aug 25 06:29:43 1997:

obviously not.  <sniff>


#3 of 23 by orinoco on Mon Aug 25 20:48:16 1997:

Shall I come back later when I have one written?
Can anyone think of a way to answer the former question in the affirmative
while still using a question mark?


#4 of 23 by font on Tue Aug 26 02:49:19 1997:

?yes.


#5 of 23 by font on Tue Aug 26 03:02:20 1997:

yes?>


Times of the bewildered eat the trees?
can't you hear them calling?
when the rodent swings between the trees?
cuz he can't see they've been eaten?
so he falls hard and blinks into the sun?
and we wonder why he's false?
but this poem will end?
so that people may live?

<orinoco bursts into applause?>


#7 of 23 by font on Sat Sep 6 04:25:54 1997:

<because it ended,or because it was created??>


#8 of 23 by orinoco on Sun Sep 7 00:01:16 1997:

Why must I restrict myself to one reason alone?


#9 of 23 by remmers on Mon Sep 8 08:30:32 1997:

One man, one reason. It's as simple as that.


#10 of 23 by font on Mon Sep 8 21:12:19 1997:

well, it may look like only one man, but you have to test the brainwaves.
it may be two, in whichcase we would have to see which one answered which way.
This is a bit to facist to me, so I leave it as a gedanks-experiment...


#11 of 23 by orinoco on Tue Sep 9 02:42:44 1997:

One man, one reason?  Sounds suspiciously un-PC to me.
If I was in drag, could I have more than one reason?
What about if I were in drag?
Or just "Were I in drag?"

The linguistic terrorist's brigade marches onwards, unfazed by their lesser
compatriots who are content to merely march onward.


#12 of 23 by font on Thu Sep 18 03:31:52 1997:

No, no "reason" here.  But wave patterns are unique, like fingerprints.  IF
you have more than one, regardless of gender, percieved gender, sexual
preference, etc, that would point to the presence of multiple personalities.
However, I must admit, I am skeptical, too.  How do we know that the
brainwaves don't change when you think different things?  (after all it was
only a science thing.  It generally takes them at least 20 years to iron the
conflicting studies, and then you just have a common perception, and never
the truth.) Fontly supports all linguistic terrorism openly.  No one will be
spared, not even my car!


#13 of 23 by orinoco on Sun Sep 21 19:15:47 1997:

Could you spare my car, given that I don't have one?
It would never do to terrorize a nonexistant entity.
Or perhaps merely an existent nonentity.


#14 of 23 by snowth on Tue Sep 23 03:58:46 1997:

Which would be worse, dating your nonexistant sister, or dating your actual
sister? Or dating your car?


#15 of 23 by orinoco on Thu Sep 25 01:20:23 1997:

It strikes me that toyotophillia is not necessarily a mortal sin.


#16 of 23 by srw on Sat Sep 27 06:06:02 1997:

manual or automatic? It might make a difference.


#17 of 23 by orinoco on Sat Sep 27 17:58:13 1997:

Our toyota is an automatic.  Our subaru is a manual.  
Our subaru's maual is in the glove compartment.
My gloves are in the toyota.


#18 of 23 by snowth on Sun Sep 28 19:59:15 1997:

So, then, where's the toyota? For that matter, where are your mittens?


#19 of 23 by orinoco on Mon Sep 29 22:00:07 1997:

And what about my crayons?


#20 of 23 by font on Tue Sep 30 03:32:49 1997:

Hmmmm you might want to ask the pope about dating crayons.  
"flesh" is pretty kinky, if a bit racist.  Magenta has a magnetic
personality.  But I am afraid I don't *do* crayons, thank you.


#21 of 23 by orinoco on Tue Sep 30 22:36:48 1997:

If you've got multiple flesh tones in one box, is it a multi-ethnic
relationship?


#22 of 23 by font on Thu Oct 9 02:05:38 1997:

that works, but crayola seems resistant.  I mean, if your date is a crayon,
would it consider Crayola a god?  The anti-christ?  Whistler's Mother?
