How do you people find this place, anyways? I think the majority of us don't remember, but that is because we were intoxicated at the time...

The closest I've heard is "door hinge" - used in Welcome to the Monkey House by Kurt Vonnegut.

syringe - credit clodfobble, i think

oh, and foot, you're in, buddy. you could be me if I wasn;t already, and you know I'm in.

The only question in that quiz that was worth any points was the rock band one, and LED ZEPPELIN is the only right answer.

How about rhyming "silver" or "purple"?

well, there's purple nerple.

milfer....?

pilfer.

And everyone knows about maple syrple.

Interesting, you managed to tell us a lot of details without giving any hint of your gender.

Most of us don't care, Sir. :eyebrow:

he managed not to lie about it too, i noticed. ;)

mirth and stifled roaring laughter.

I nominate posts #28 and 29 for the tag team event in the hall of fame or whatever great post thread it is.

If that isn't the pot calling the kettle something or another, I don't know what is.

Babylon 5 reference.

See http://homepage.univie.ac.at/horst.prillinger/b5/1-08.html

But don't complain that you don't understand; as Kosh says, "Understanding is a three-edged sword."

So this newbie thing.... I'm feeling left out, but I hate to draw the spotlight, so I thought I'd just add a footnote to someone-else's billing......

British expat in Michigan, 3 sprogs, one born here. Been here 5 years, feeling (and sounding) very mid-Atlantic. Professional "involved parent", would call myself a housewife but no time for housework, too busy trying to run the world.

Oh no you don't, monster. Get back over with the regulars. :lol:

lumberjim wrote:

Oh, damn, look at the time ... I have to get to Red 3! :3_eyes:

2. Which came first? the chicken or the rooster?

She faked it, and the rooster has no idea.

3. What is eleven times eleven? show your work

11^2

4. What is your quest?

Experience

[size=1]You scored 51 Danger, 63 Intrigue, 56 Romance, and 28 Material Gain! You love well, you live well, you fight for what you believe in, and you keep a clear sharp mind. Your quest is to experience all that life has to offer, to travel, to learn, to take every oppurtunity. You are a very free person, and care little for money and physical comfort. Religion might come easily to you, as might philosophy..[/size]

E. Who/what is the best rock band of all time?

Ah, but you're just trying to start a bar fight ...

VI. Where is your duodenum?

Between my unodenum and my triodenum.

7. What ryhmes with 'orange?'

Oranges poranges, who says, oranges poranges,
who says, oranges poranges, who says--
there ain't no rhyme for oranges![/Witchiepoo]

eight. How many fingers am i holding up?

32. Which is quite strange, now that I think about it ....

IX. Ketchup or mustard on your hotdog?

BBQ sauce.

10. What color are the underwear you're wearing right now?

"Underwear" is singular.

:D

Maybe, but I still remember - and I remember seeing a few others mention that they'd discovered it the same way - Image of the Day. Got to this site somehow looking at cool pictures....
And...welcome Lee.

Not to change the subject......

Then why do we refer to them as pairs?

Ha! Got you! I've run rings around you logically!

Oh....yes.....I'm sorry for the confusion. I meant with the regular contributors not with the normal people. :D

Good answers Nick!

Since I started during the dial-up years, I don't remember where I found out about it. Back then there were no hyperlinks, so the Cellar was either listed on another board or mentioned in a post.

Geez Rich, you old guys can't remember shit. :stickpoke

wolf wrote:

So that you have the rare chance to make the word oxymoron feel wanted- as in 'I haven't a single pair to wear'... that poor word gets hardly any chances at all to be in the public eye and as might be expected it becomes very depressed as a result - make an oxymoron happy, and string two contradictory words together today - let's make today the official oxymoron day from now on - put it in your diaries to be celebrated every year - SAVE THE OXYMORON! SAVE THE OXYMORON! - and remember 'an oxymoron a day... ....!?' (damn a forgotten memory, who'd have thought....!)

Because their main purpose is to hold in two testicles.

Of course, then the question becomes, how come brassieres aren't sold in pairs.

The sober answer is that
brassière is singular even in the French.

bras... aka knocker knickers....
