the explanation thread
many of you might have imagined that i would, eventually, have to make this thread since i'm prone to over-explaining!
however...i was showering this morning and thinking about not much in particular when it dawned on me that i might need to explain something that i say frequently to my friends when i sign pms.
its sorta goofey but i realized that some of my non-american friends, and perhaps a few of my american ones might not understand what i mean when i say "hugs and sh*t".
i realized that altho one might comprehend the hug part, one also might NOT comprehend the sh*t part. it might look like i'm wishing you sh*t! WHICH I AM NOT!!
in the context in which i use it...it means "hugs and sh*t like that" or "hugs and other affectionate stuff."
it doesn't mean i'm sending you sh*t.
if anyone else has anything they'd like to explain about themselves that we may or may not understand...well...post it here i reckon!
i hate being misunderstood and am hypervigilant in that regard. how bout you?

you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

I think less of you now to find out that you weren't wishing me sh#t.
I thought that was kinda cool.
"Hey, Lucimay wants to give me a hug and some sh#t!"
Now it's just: "Hey, Lucimay wants to give me hugs and stuff-like-hugs."
It's ok, I guess, still kind of a letdown....

Hmph. I always get the "later tater" sign off. I guess I am not good enough for "hugs and sh*t"
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

Hmm. I think I get the "later" signoff too....
I've been trying to think of something that I feel the need to explain here. But most of the things I can think of defy explanation...

I disagree. Juan Valdez is at the heart of the issue. And since we're at it, this thread is the anti-Inner Garden. It causes a sad malevolence to shoot forth from my monitor, wiggling and writhing. And now it's attaching to my face, sucking my soul like a rabid cock spaniel.danlo wrote:Damm that Ricky Ricardo! He started the whole freaking thing!
Also, "Luci" has four letters, "God" three. Thomas Covenant--both words from the Bible. This message, so far, has 666 letters, and the box I'm typing in is often referred to as a "pit." If you look to your right, you'll see two faces-- . Fist's avatar is obviously a *pagan* man jumping at two horses, striking them viciously, and at the top of the site is the garden of Eden, with two lone figures defying God.

And here I thought this thread was all about giving Lucimay "sh*t".....

See Luci...you should never explain yourself. Ends up causing you more grief than it's worth. Stay cryptic I say!
I've got lots of things to explain, but it's too hard to explain. You'll all work it out when I get to the US

the reality that I'm a 60 year old man might come as a surprise to some! ...especially Luci!
