What I Plan To Do
Matthew J. Wagner
I posted for a short period of time a while ago, maybe at the very beginning
of the year, but wound up bogged down by the sheer volume of posts and was
forced to stop. The froup seems to have slowed a bit, so I've decided to
re-read the entire Hitchhiker's series to reacquaint myself with it and make
a lousy attempt at reentering the fray. During this time I'll make sure to
listen to lots of Sarah McLachlan and keep myself mellow. Oh, and, of
course, I'll have my towel (as if _that_ hasn't been heard enough).
I'll keep you informed.

Really? Oh.
I thought the "cromulent word" thing was in the Black Adder episode
where Dr Johnson(sp?) was writing his dictionary. Just when he was
confident that all the words in the English language had been written
down with their appropriate meaning, Edmund started saying all sorts
of others in contexts that wouldn't normally be appropriate.
But if you say they're both from the Simpsons then I submit to your
more informed knowledge of the matter. I've not seen the Black Adder
in years (quick estimate: 8 years), and I don't think I've seen that
Simpsons episode ever.
Ho hum.

Exactly. I demand this idiot apologise immediately. I'll not have anyone
insulting my Uncle Lloyd unless it relates to inebriation or Physics.
Anything else is just nasty, and I won't stand for it. Don't push me.

Well it's been a while since I've seen much Black Adder, but if "cromulent"
was in an episode then the Simpson's might have been doing an obref to BA.
(they've done it before)
Does anyone else remember a perfectly cromulent word in Black Adder?
Do you remember the name of the episode?
Do you get sick of people asking questions like you should know the answer?

1) No, I've had a quick flick through the script, and I can't see it, though
it does sound as if it should be there.
2) It was Ink and Incapability.

One of the jokes that I didn't catch at first was the Homer answering an
ad in the personals bit.
"Hello? Is this... [reads his paper] GBM? Uh, yeah. I read in the
personals that you were seeking a soulmate. Well, I also like rainy

Wouldn't a question cascade be described as a thread where each person
follows up a question with another question, a la "Rosencratz and
Guildestern are dead"'s question game, which gets played until
everyone gets bored, or the cascade gets broken up by the cascade
deputy?

Teh is the deputy. I'm the deputy of another deputy.
I beleive we both feel that a little cascade every once in a while will
keep the froup happy without scaring away the newbies. But, if it gets out
of hand, either of us could start shooting at any time. You're not dealing
with any dumb two-bit trigger-pumping morons with low hairlines, little
piggy eyes and no conversation, we're a couple of intelligent caring guys
that you'd probably quite like if you met us socially! I don't go around
gratuitously shooting people and then bragging about it afterwards in
seedy space-rangers bars, like some cops I could mention! I go around
shooting people gratuitously and then I agonize about it afterwards for
hours to my girlfriend!

Only saw that episode once, and don't remember it well at all. The
first series I've seen more then once, but not the later ones...

Underwear on heads is so common place that I'm sure this could carry on for
a very long time indeed. It seems to be one of those emergency comedy
devices for writers e.g "Oh dear, I appear to have come to a dead end. I
know, I'll get old/drunk/none-to-bright person wear a
pair-of-boxer-shorts/bra on their head because
they're-drunk/they're-senile/I-cant-think-of-a-reason-but-it's-bound-to-get-
a-laugh-anyway." unless I'm just being cynical. Which may well be the case.
