How long will it take us to get to 10,000 posts?

[DallasFanForever]

We are both hopeless DFF

Unfortunately this might be true

... although and this is a terrible thing to admit, I don't realise how sarcastic I can be at times

Well, at least you don’t realize it cause I do realize it and still do it LOL!! My sarcasm is largely based on how I’m feeling at the time. If I’m depressed or worried about something, it starts flying more than usual. I don’t know how most put up with it so at the very least I guess I’m likable. I do end up apologizing for a lot of it though so maybe that’s why all is forgiven. (Eventually)

I'm trying to get a hold on this. I could do with a support group .. Sarcastic People Anonymous .. or something.

Nothing wrong with asking for help. I commend you my friend but unfortunately DFF might be beyond help at this point. Although I’m often told I need help so maybe I should start listening.

Ooo I get it. We both have a terrible burden to bear and no one else understands

No, no one does, and I’ve noticed people calling for The Enforcer to be unleashed lately. These poor souls have no idea what they’re asking for from what I’ve heard. I think it’s best we leave that can of snails unopened.

Yes it is! Its a great gift to be able to bring laughter and joy into someones day, good for you and your humour DFF

Thank you Lashes! I think we all need to laugh, especially now more than ever. I think laughter has caused me to still be allowed to post on the Dynasty threads. I guess with my nickname it must be quite a head scratcher when I’m posting over there so I save my best one liners for them. None of the Dallas fans know I stray over there, of course.

Have you ever heard of a comedian called 'Billy Connolly' or 'Peter Kay' ? ... I could listen to these two all day, they have me in stitches and like you I think they have a wonderful gift

I’ve seen Billy Connolly but I have to look up Peter Kay. I’m honored you compared me to professional comedians but I’m afraid I fall way short. I’ve actually had a few people at work tell me over the years to do standup comedy but I just can’t. I have the worst stage fright. It would never work. My best friend at work begs me to take the microphone every time we’re in a meeting in the warehouse but I just run away. It probably wouldn’t work out going to see a comedian that flees the stage before the show even starts. Just a hunch.

My school was very strict about sticking to the school uniform and rules. They were not at all happy with me flaunting the rules.

I see. I’m trying to remember if I broke any rules in school. Not really. The only thing that comes to mind is fighting. There was a lot of fighting in my school; not real fighting, just playful wrestling and stuff like that. But that’s what idiot teenage boys did back then in Upstate New York. There weren’t many people around. Eventually we grew up. That and the threat of staying after school if you didn’t behave, of course.


So..............where are we? 5044? That puts us 56 posts away with 26 days to go I think? This is gonna be close!

 

[Michelle Stevens]

Thats far too short Michelle Stevens

That's not what Dan the Pilot said.

Excuse me! I would never wear that.

What if your alien friends said that was the fashion of the day?

Something more like this for me ...

That would match well with my jumper.

and for you my friend .....

Pfft!

Just think how cosy and warm your face will be

I may have to get something to cover my great legs on those chilly nights on the Yacht while in Iceland. We better move fast before it gets too cold.

Apart from keeping the bird bath topped up with fresh water I tend not to feed them much at all during the summer, in fact, when we had the heatwave most of our garden birds disappeared, I wonder where they went?

Indeed! Do you have a birdbath?

They really are I once bought Sunflower Heart Seeds for a change and the birds wouldn't touch them..Lol!

I am very pleased this week though, because my friendly little Robin Redbreast has returned.

Oh hurray! The evenings are getting longer so it's their time.

Oh yes I remember now how Pinkie Poinsettia came from your work.

Yes, PP was with me for a year before she passed in January. She's my only Poinsettia that has died as of yet. My other three are enjoy the Summer of 2022 with maybe another month outdoors.

She had a lucky escape thanks to you

I wish I knew that killed her but I think the cold air where she was wintering over with damp soil harmed her. To give her nearly an extra year of life was still worth it.

Thanks for asking, but he's not good at all, I can't see anything springing into life So I'm going to take your advice and try him in the garden.

Oh no. Is Biggie dropping leaves? I hope the warmth of the outdoors brings her back. We are so close. Please keep us informed on her condition.

I must take a photo of Pearl she is full of blooms, the other day one of my friends asked if she was a real plant because her flowers look so perfect ... at least I'm having some success with one of my plants.

It's good to know Pearl is doing so well. She is happy. I'm surprised you have blooms this time of year. Most of mine are just growing leaves. I'd love to see an image of her.

Tiny Tim is plodding on in his own way, he's looked quite miserable in the heat, but then he prefers winter and Orkie is still resting at the moment ... I don't think she fancies being in competition with the younger and bigger Pearl.

Oh no, your orchids are jealous of one another? I never though of that with my family of plants. Is Orkie growing any leaves or just relaxing?

Yes that was MY Dan the pilot

Was is the right word. After seeing my incredible bare legs whilst wearing my jumper he had a new employer, if he knew it or not.

He liked my rings and I insisted he kiss each one or else I'd show him what they are really used for.

Did he? ... hmm maybe I'll re-advertise for another Pilot.

Good luck with that.

Think I'll ask him to ditch the reflective sunglasses

LOL!

They don't know what they're missing not wandering down to this forum. Lets keep quiet about the TT yacht I don't fancy sharing it with the other members .Lol!

Agreed! Let's set sail quickly before someone finds out. It would be nice to use the TT Yacht after so many months.

So that's Bill Gates off our list then .

Lets try and think of someone nice and generous who is also super rich .... I don't personally know anyone who fits this description

.. oh wait! how could I forget my Enrique! I'll go and give him a call

Hmm... I don't think I've ever met Enrique. He's Spanish, I've been to Spain and have some knowledge of the language. Maybe after Iceland we go to Spain on the yacht. I did like Costa Del Sol when I was there the last time. What do you think my friend?

 

[Michelle Stevens]

Is he? I mean is she? .... Ooo than you for clearing this up Michelle, you've the only one who has seen her in action ... I have no recollections of her when she leaves me.

If The Enforcer knew you said this about her/you she'd be so mad with you/her. Again, poor Enforcer.

Naturally, well she is a part of me the N1H.

You know her so well Michelle .. oh and she likes big stretchy jumpers which grow or shrink with her.

That loose jumper you had may not be to the Enforcers liking. She loves to display her/your muscles and power to intimidate. She would surely destroy that. Maybe your so called alien friends can come back to Earth with their advanced powers to make a big stretchy jumper or another outfit the Enforcer would like? BTW, any news from your alien friends?

 

[Michelle Stevens]

So..............where are we? 5044? That puts us 56 posts away with 26 days to go I think? This is gonna be close!

Easy peasy! :bump:

I hope you're having a good Labor Day my friend.

 

[DallasFanForever]

Easy peasy! :bump:

I hope you're having a good Labor Day my friend.

Thank you Michelle!! It’s been a very quiet Labor Day. DFF has been in hiding all weekend cause sometimes you need to do that.

I hope you are enjoying your Labor Day as well my friend!

 

[Biggie]

I like it too I didn't realise the lady was weeping for a lost love, but I liked her vocals they are very haunting. The 2 baselines are clever, but I especially liked the drumming, I like drummy music. Thanks for posting it Biggi

@Long Lashes I'm pleased that you liked that track. My tastes are eclectic and usually "lost" on people in the physical realm!
The weeping lady and all the other qualities are conjured up in my mind over numerous plays.... (it's kinda a me thing... if you follow my train of logic).

But, glad you liked it.

 

[Long Lashes]

My sarcasm is largely based on how I’m feeling at the time. If I’m depressed or worried about something, it starts flying more than usual. I don’t know how most put up with it so at the very least I guess I’m likable. I do end up apologizing for a lot of it though so maybe that’s why all is forgiven. (Eventually)

Of course you're very likable my friend, I can tell by the way you talk about how your colleagues and family react to you. As for your sarcasm? it must be very amusing to others or they would take offence and from what you've said they don't. Your sarcasm might not be as bad as you think, I wish mine wasn't ..lol!

Nothing wrong with asking for help. I commend you my friend but unfortunately DFF might be beyond help at this point. Although I’m often told I need help so maybe I should start listening.

I think I'm beyond help at this stage too. Its all part of my personality, although I'm never cruel .. well, I try not to be as I'd hate to upset anyone. Come to think of it .. most of my friends share the same humour as me, as does my Mr L so I mix with a large group of sarcastic people.

I’ve noticed people calling for The Enforcer to be unleashed lately. These poor souls have no idea what they’re asking for from what I’ve heard. I think it’s best we leave that can of snails unopened.

They have no idea what these super-powers take out of us do they DFF? After a Lash-out I'm exhausted for days.

I think laughter has caused me to still be allowed to post on the Dynasty threads. I guess with my nickname it must be quite a head scratcher when I’m posting over there so I save my best one liners for them. None of the Dallas fans know I stray over there, of course.

Lol! .. I can just picture you sneaking onto the Dynasty forum trying to disguise yourself so the Dallas fans don't know anything about it

Your humour does come across very well DFF. Sometimes when written down as we do on these forums its not always easy to translate humour into words, but you manage it. Its part of the reason why I use a lot of emojis ... plus I like them, but sometimes I need to add a little laughing smilie to show I'm joking and I've noticed you have no need to do that because you translate your humour well.

I’ve actually had a few people at work tell me over the years to do standup comedy but I just can’t. I have the worst stage fright. It would never work. My best friend at work begs me to take the microphone every time we’re in a meeting in the warehouse but I just run away. It probably wouldn’t work out going to see a comedian that flees the stage before the show even starts. Just a hunch.

Being a stand-up comedian is not for everyone, I know I could never do it. One of my friends has a daughter who used to do stand-up, she wanted to make a career out of it, but it was so difficult. She gave it all up in the end and re-trained as a teacher.

The only thing that comes to mind is fighting. There was a lot of fighting in my school; not real fighting, just playful wrestling and stuff like that. But that’s what idiot teenage boys did back then in Upstate New York. There weren’t many people around. Eventually we grew up. That and the threat of staying after school if you didn’t behave, of course.

I used to hate having to stay behind at school, what a horrible punishment that was .. not that it happened often to me

 

[Long Lashes]

I may have to get something to cover my great legs on those chilly nights on the Yacht while in Iceland. We better move fast before it gets too cold.

Oh I've got just the outfit to keep you warm ...

No its okay no thanks necessary.

Do you have a birdbath?

Yes we do. I'll route out a photo, I think you've already seen it, but I might be wrong?

Yes, PP was with me for a year before she passed in January. She's my only Poinsettia that has died as of yet.

She had a bad start in life so she did well to last a whole year. I've yet to achieve this goal.

My other three are enjoy the Summer of 2022 with maybe another month outdoors.

You have such happy Poinsettias .. what a lovely thought

To give her nearly an extra year of life was still worth it.

Yes it was, she stood no chance until you stepped in.

Oh no. Is Biggie dropping leaves? I hope the warmth of the outdoors brings her back. We are so close. Please keep us informed on her condition.

Dropping leaves? Biggie is completely bare not a leaf left. I can't see any signs of re-growth either so I'm thinking of planting him in the garden and letting nature take its course. It would be wonderful if it perks up, but if not then at least its somewhere comfortable. Thanks for asking Michelle, I wish I had happier news.

It's good to know Pearl is doing so well. She is happy. I'm surprised you have blooms this time of year. Most of mine are just growing leaves. I'd love to see an image of her.

Right! before I return to this thread. I must take her photo and show her off to you

Is Orkie growing any leaves or just relaxing?

Orkies such a lazy bones, she's relaxing and keeping her eye on Pearl, waiting for her to drop her blooms and then she can emerge as a beautiful orchid in bloom. Its a bit like claiming the hotness crown on here :Clol:

Was is the right word. After seeing my incredible bare legs whilst wearing my jumper he had a new employer, if he knew it or not.

He liked my rings and I insisted he kiss each one or else I'd show him what they are really used for.

I have news! I've sacked Dan the pilot ... not that I was jealous or anything, no, no way.

So right now, I'm busy interviewing a new list of hot-pilots

Hmm... I don't think I've ever met Enrique. He's Spanish,

Oye! keep your hands off him, he's mine, all mine :laughing:

Maybe after Iceland we go to Spain on the yacht. I did like Costa Del Sol when I was there the last time. What do you think my friend?

Sounds like a good plan. From cold to hot ... I'll go and pack my bags :byebye:

 

[Long Lashes]

@Long Lashes I'm pleased that you liked that track. My tastes are eclectic and usually "lost" on people in the physical realm!Top

I enjoy it when you post some music. I get to listen to stuff I wouldn't normally hear. I'm lazy and tend to stick to what I know I like music-wise, so you're helping to broaden my tastes which is fab.

.

The weeping lady and all the other qualities are conjured up in my mind over numerous plays.... (it's kinda a me thing... if you follow my train of logic).

Its definitely very you Biggie

But, glad you liked it.

I did, very much so. It was so atmospheric.

 

[DallasFanForever]

Of course you're very likable my friend, I can tell by the way you talk about how your colleagues and family react to you.

Thank you Lashes! And the feeling is quite mutual. I’m sure everyone here agrees that you’re very likable as well.

As for your sarcasm? it must be very amusing to others or they would take offence and from what you've said they don't. Your sarcasm might not be as bad as you think, I wish mine wasn't ..lol!

Well, I try to make it amusing but sometimes I notice sarcasm can backfire. DFF messed up bad the other day. Someone I work with has a very distinct high pitched laugh and I made the mistake of impersonating it in a sarcastic way. She took me aside and asked me not to do it again as she doesn’t like anyone making fun of her laugh. I apologized of course and I promised her it would never happen again and I meant no offense. Well, I must’ve forgotten that conversation because about a week later I hear that high pitched laugh across the station and I mimicked it again. You know, when you do something a second time after you’re told not to it gets very quiet Lashes! Let’s just say that was almost it for DFF. Luckily mercy was shown and all was forgiven eventually as I reminded her that I’m actually quite harmless. That and there’s really no point in continuing to kick me when I’m already laying on the ground.

I think I'm beyond help at this stage too. Its all part of my personality, although I'm never cruel .. well, I try not to be as I'd hate to upset anyone. Come to think of it .. most of my friends share the same humour as me, as does my Mr L so I mix with a large group of sarcastic people.

I think the problem with sarcasm is it can be taken the wrong way very easily. I’m sure you’re never cruel and I try not to be either but sometimes I notice it ends up backfiring. I try to explain that it’s who I am and they’re out of luck cause I can’t change now. But I usually say that part sarcastically also, of course, so there’s the problem.

They have no idea what these super-powers take out of us do they DFF? After a Lash-out I'm exhausted for days.

Days??? This is quite interesting because Hulk-outs were usually over by the next commercial break. I must say you do take this to a whole other level Lashes! We have to keep you calm.

Lol! .. I can just picture you sneaking onto the Dynasty forum trying to disguise yourself so the Dallas fans don't know anything about it

I do like it over there cause it’s something different. I love reading the Dallas threads but how many times can we discuss the arrival of @Michelle Stevens ruining the show?

(Just kidding Michelle, just kidding)

Your humour does come across very well DFF. Sometimes when written down as we do on these forums its not always easy to translate humour into words, but you manage it. Its part of the reason why I use a lot of emojis ... plus I like them, but sometimes I need to add a little laughing smilie to show I'm joking and I've noticed you have no need to do that because you translate your humour well.

Thank you! I agree that a lot of how we say things and what we really mean can get lost in typing. Quite often I do worry about how the things I type are going to come across. But even without the emojis I would never misconstrue anything you type. I know being offensive is the furthest thing from your mind but of course with the people we’re not familiar with as much the emojis serve a purpose.

Or you can do what I did above when I said “just kidding Michelle, just kidding,” in case you are expecting some trouble later when they do read it.

Being a stand-up comedian is not for everyone, I know I could never do it. One of my friends has a daughter who used to do stand-up, she wanted to make a career out of it, but it was so difficult. She gave it all up in the end and re-trained as a teacher.

I think it’s great that she gave it a shot. I’d give anything to be able to do that. I would imagine it’s gotta be difficult to constantly come up with new material. A friend of mine at work does stand up on the side and he’s always telling me how it’s a constant struggle. It’s very competitive also. He gets a lot of his material from work, believe it or not. He’s used most of us in his act at some point.

I used to hate having to stay behind at school, what a horrible punishment that was .. not that it happened often to me

I would usually get lucky and get shown some pity for some reason and didn’t have to stay. I learned early on that apologizing profusely helped. That and a lot of begging.



Let’s see, we need 47 more posts in about 18 days? I think we’re okay.

 

[Michelle Stevens]

I do like it over there cause it’s something different. I love reading the Dallas threads but how many times can we discuss the arrival of @Michelle Stevens ruining the show?

(Just kidding Michelle, just kidding)

WHAT??!!

And I thought we were friends. I helped keep the show afloat for the final two years. There was no eye-candy on that show after Pam left. You are all lucky, very lucky indeed 'Lashes has the superhuman Enforcer powers. If I had such lash-out/Enforcer powers chaos would ensue, super hot chaos in fact. Breath in Michelle, breath out, he said he was just kidding.

 

[Michelle Stevens]

Oh I've got just the outfit to keep you warm ...

No its okay no thanks necessary.

LOL, you are too much ... too much nonsense my friend. :fp:

Yes we do. I'll route out a photo, I think you've already seen it, but I might be wrong?

Maybe I did see it and forgot. You forget Michelle is a blonde.

She had a bad start in life so she did well to last a whole year. I've yet to achieve this goal.

Aww, you will one day my friend.

You have such happy Poinsettias .. what a lovely thought

It's getting time to think about taking them in soon. Their time in the outdoor sun is nearing an end within a month.

Yes it was, she stood no chance until you stepped in.

Like all my plants I did all I could do. My orchid #28, Venus was ill in July and I call out to reddit members on an orchid board and to my orchid nursery for help be found little I could do for her ailments. Luckily Venus has grown two new leaves after becoming ill so I think she is fighting and doing better. The sick ones capture your heart.

Dropping leaves? Biggie is completely bare not a leaf left. I can't see any signs of re-growth either so I'm thinking of planting him in the garden and letting nature take its course. It would be wonderful if it perks up, but if not then at least its somewhere comfortable. Thanks for asking Michelle, I wish I had happier news.

Aww, it seems #4 isn't lucky for you. At least you are giving Biggie one last chance in the garden with Mother Nature. Hopefully a miracle can come about.

Right! before I return to this thread. I must take her photo and show her off to you

Indeed, I'd love to see this. :hats:

Orkies such a lazy bones, she's relaxing and keeping her eye on Pearl, waiting for her to drop her blooms and then she can emerge as a beautiful orchid in bloom. Its a bit like claiming the hotness crown on here :Clol:

LOL, where do you think I learned some of my hotness tricks, my orchids. They teach me things each day in their own way.

Do you keep Orkie and Pearl together?

I have news! I've sacked Dan the pilot ... not that I was jealous or anything, no, no way.

So right now, I'm busy interviewing a new list of hot-pilots

Dan wanted to sack me but that was obvious from first sight.

Your jealousy of my superior hotness never fails to amaze me.

Oye! keep your hands off him, he's mine, all mine :laughing:

Well it would be more than my hands ... but I'm not a greedy hottie so I'll leave him to you.

Sounds like a good plan. From cold to hot ... I'll go and pack my bags :byebye:

We better get moving before petrol prices raise again, more money from the TT treasure.

 

[Biggie]

I enjoy it when you post some music. I get to listen to stuff I wouldn't normally hear. I'm lazy and tend to stick to what I know I like music-wise, so you're helping to broaden my tastes which is fab.

I'm ever so pleased to hear this.

I did, very much so. It was so atmospheric.

I absolutely agree, out of curiosity I checked what position Magic Carpet was in my most played list... now at #11!

Its definitely very you Biggie

Ha ha... glad you see what's going on... many don't!

 

[DallasFanForever]

WHAT??!!

And I thought we were friends.

We are, we are! DFF was just seeing if you were paying attention. Yes, that’s it. We’ll go with that.

I helped keep the show afloat for the final two years

This is hard to argue. You were one of the few reasons I was still watching

There was no eye-candy on that show after Pam left

You know, I never realized til now how true this statement is. Michelle was definitely needed.

You are all lucky, very lucky indeed 'Lashes has the superhuman Enforcer powers. If I had such lash-out/Enforcer powers chaos would ensue, super hot chaos in fact.

When I watch a certain show now and I see what they referred to as a Hulk-out I can’t help but laugh a little. However, I get the feeling I wouldn’t be laughing after seeing a Lash-out or Michelle-out.

 

[Michelle Stevens]

We are, we are! DFF was just seeing if you were paying attention. Yes, that’s it. We’ll go with that.

I always look over the post to see if any disrespect it pointed in Michelle's way.

This is hard to argue. You were one of the few reasons I was still watching

That is indeed to good to know. There are not many Michelle fans on Dallas fandom so I appreciate every fan that stands up.

You know, I never realized til now how true this statement is. Michelle was definitely needed.

INDEED! :bravo:

When I watch a certain show now and I see what they referred to as a Hulk-out I can’t help but laugh a little. However, I get the feeling I wouldn’t be laughing after seeing a Lash-out or Michelle-out.

I doubt you would. Now 'Lashes hasn't been put under a car or got her arm stuck in a newspaper conveyor/roller but, don't tell her, I have locked her in the TT storage room and walk-in refrigerator to see her Lash-out. I know it's highly dangerous but I get bored easily and I miss the Enforcer every so often.

A Michelle-out, if anger triggered that, I would be in a constant state of Hot Enforcer. Luckily for 'Lashes the aliens haven't given me the potion for enhanced powers.

 

[DallasFanForever]

I always look over the post to see if any disrespect it pointed in Michelle's way.

Yes, I noticed. I’ll have to remember that.

That is indeed to good to know. There are not many Michelle fans on Dallas fandom so I appreciate every fan that stands up.

Oh I was a fan from your very first scene. It was hard not to be!

I have locked her in the TT storage room and walk-in refrigerator to see her Lash-out

I like this! Very reminiscent of the Incredible Hulk pilot. I just hope the results aren’t the same.

I get bored easily and I miss the Enforcer every so often.

Hard to believe what our dear Lashes turns into. DFF will keep trying to stay on her good side. The Enforcer does intrigue me but perhaps it’s better we keep Lashes locked in the TT storage room for now, at the very least for our own safety.

A Michelle-out, if anger triggered that, I would be in a constant state of Hot Enforcer. Luckily for 'Lashes the aliens haven't given me the potion for enhanced powers.

I see. Well, that would definitely add a whole new dimension to the Last Post thread I guess. Perhaps you both should be locked in TT storage for awhile just until we know it’s safe?

Then again, we do still need 41 more posts in 14 days so maybe The Enforcer and Hot Enforcer being unleashed is what we need?

 

[Long Lashes]

. Someone I work with has a very distinct high pitched laugh and I made the mistake of impersonating it in a sarcastic way. She took me aside and asked me not to do it again as she doesn’t like anyone making fun of her laugh. I apologized of course and I promised her it would never happen again and I meant no offense. Well, I must’ve forgotten that conversation because about a week later I hear that high pitched laugh across the station and I mimicked it again. You know, when you do something a second time after you’re told not to it gets very quiet Lashes!

I know I shouldn't . but reading his really made me laugh its the thought of you imitating her high pitched laugh, I'd have been in stitches if I'd been there..Lol!

Its a shame she took it the wrong way, I honestly don't get upset of people making fun of me, but having said that we are all different and are sensitive to different things and at least you apologised.... until you did it again

Let’s just say that was almost it for DFF. Luckily mercy was shown and all was forgiven eventually as I reminded her that I’m actually quite harmless. That and there’s really no point in continuing to kick me when I’m already laying on the ground.

Phew! so you got through that

I think the problem with sarcasm is it can be taken the wrong way very easily. I’m sure you’re never cruel and I try not to be either but sometimes I notice it ends up backfiring.

You're absolutely right, it can and sometimes is taken the wrong way, which is why I tend to only let my sarcasm fly in front of people who know me really well and who also find it funny. I must admit having to bite my tongue sometimes with strangers.

Days??? This is quite interesting because Hulk-outs were usually over by the next commercial break.

:floor:

The Enforcer doesn't get any commercial breaks :laughing:

I must say you do take this to a whole other level Lashes! We have to keep you calm.

Oh yes, I recommend you doing all you can to keep me calm, you would be traumatised for life otherwise

I do like it over there cause it’s something different. I love reading the Dallas threads but how many times can we discuss the arrival of @Michelle Stevens ruining the show?

Ooo! Joke or no joke, now you're in big trouble from Michelle Stevens :Clol:

Quite often I do worry about how the things I type are going to come across.

Join the club DFF, I'm the same. In fact, on occasion during my early days on here I would worry so much that I went back an hour or so after posting something and changed it ... this rarely happens nowadays and I'd only do it if I think no one has yet read the comment.

But even without the emojis I would never misconstrue anything you type. I know being offensive is the furthest thing from your mind but of course with the people we’re not familiar with as much the emojis serve a purpose.

This is reassuring to know, than you.

I think it’s great that she gave it a shot. I’d give anything to be able to do that. I would imagine it’s gotta be difficult to constantly come up with new material.

She used to base her act on people she knew using sarcasm I suppose..... and here we are back to the subject of sarcasm

A friend of mine at work does stand up on the side and he’s always telling me how it’s a constant struggle. It’s very competitive also. He gets a lot of his material from work, believe it or not. He’s used most of us in his act at some point.

Sounds very similar to my friends daughter, using real people and situations. I do enjoy this type of comedy because its usually something we (the audience) can relate to because its familiar.

Let’s see, we need 47 more posts in about 18 days? I think we’re okay.

Are we still on track my friend?

 

[Long Lashes]

LOL, you are too much ... too much nonsense my friend. :fp:

Oh I know I am

Maybe I did see it and forgot. You forget Michelle is a blonde.

Not only is Michelle blonde , her hair is sun-kissed and golden

Spoiler: Here is our birdbath :)

Does it look familiar? or did I dream about posting this before?

It's getting time to think about taking them in soon. Their time in the outdoor sun is nearing an end within a month.

Is your weather cooling down? Its felt quite chilly here today, nice when the sun was out, but much cooler.

My orchid #28, Venus was ill in July and I call out to reddit members on an orchid board and to my orchid nursery for help be found little I could do for her ailments. Luckily Venus has grown two new leaves after becoming ill so I think she is fighting and doing better. The sick ones capture your heart.

Well done on saving her

Aww, it seems #4 isn't lucky for you. At least you are giving Biggie one last chance in the garden with Mother Nature. Hopefully a miracle can come about.

I think I'll have to hold out more hope for #5 .. that's if I buy another? Do you not think its cruel when I keep accidently finish them off?

Indeed, I'd love to see this.

Here is Pearl as promised ...

Spoiler: Pearl in full bloom

You can see now why Orkie feels jealous and inadequate

LOL, where do you think I learned some of my hotness tricks, my orchids. They teach me things each day in their own way.

Your splendid Orchids have a lot to answer for

Do you keep Orkie and Pearl together?

Yes, sort of . They're in the same room, but at opposite ends. Do you think I should move them closer together?

Dan wanted to sack me but that was obvious from first sight.

Your jealousy of my superior hotness never fails to amaze me.

Jealous? Me jealous? :eck: I don't do jealousy. I just wish you'd chop off your golden locks and give-up going to the gym, that's all..Lol!

We better get moving before petrol prices raise again, more money from the TT treasure.

We could do with our own Petrol/Gas Station here on TT , that would solve all our problems

I know I shouldn't . but reading his really made me laugh its the thought of you imitating her high pitched laugh, I'd have been in stitches if I'd been there..Lol!

I’m glad it made you laugh! It made everyone laugh but her apparently.

Its a shame she took it the wrong way, I honestly don't get upset of people making fun of me, but having said that we are all different and are sensitive to different things and at least you apologised....

People make fun of me all the time for so many different things and I’m fine with it. Well, most of it anyway. I just have to remember that when you work in a building with 200 people you have all these different egos and some bruise easier than others.

.... until you did it again

Yes, well that was my mistake. I’d like to have that one back cause it was definitely uncalled for. And I have to say the third time I made fun of her laugh didn’t go too well either.

You're absolutely right, it can and sometimes is taken the wrong way, which is why I tend to only let my sarcasm fly in front of people who know me really well and who also find it funny. I must admit having to bite my tongue sometimes with strangers.

Always know your audience I say. It’s better to let the sarcasm fly with the people you know. With strangers I tend to be more reserved. I figure it’s too late to fix my standing in the eyes of the people I do know. They already know I’m nuts so I might as well concentrate on making strangers like me and giving them false hope.

The Enforcer doesn't get any commercial breaks :laughing:

That’s what I figured. This Enforcer certainly sounds like a lot to be reckoned with! I hope if we ever do meet face to face that The Enforcer remembers I tried to be a good friend to its alter ego.

Oh yes, I recommend you doing all you can to keep me calm, you would be traumatised for life otherwise

And here DFF was worrying about the Dynasty fans taking him out. Who knew we had a monster lurking in the games section as the real threat the entire time?

Joke or no joke, now you're in big trouble from Michelle Stevens :Clol:

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. They’re attacking from all sides at DFF now apparently. Michelle has certainly been quiet since my explanation of why I insulted her and that’s the scary part. My demise might be imminent one way or the other.

In fact, on occasion during my early days on here I would worry so much that I went back an hour or so after posting something and changed it ... this rarely happens nowadays and I'd only do it if I think no one has yet read the comment.

I did the same thing in the beginning. I was so afraid to even post at first. Then I would spellcheck everything when I did post cause I didn’t want to look stupid. But I think what helped me out a lot was the alerts. Seeing all those “likes” sometimes when I signed on helped build my confidence, especially the “ha-ha” ones.

Sounds very similar to my friends daughter, using real people and situations. I do enjoy this type of comedy because its usually something we (the audience) can relate to because its familiar.

I’d give anything to be able to go up on that stage and do what they do. Unfortunately it just wouldn’t work for me. Three people would have to go out onstage with me, two to hold me there so I don’t run away never to return and one to speak into the microphone for me cause I would freeze up solid.

Are we still on track my friend?

Well, we’re still 38 posts away with 12 days to go. It’s going to be very close I think. But we can do it.

 

[Michelle Stevens]

Not only is Michelle blonde , her hair is sun-kissed and golden

Indeed! :bravo:

Spoiler: Here is our birdbath :)

Does it look familiar? or did I dream about posting this before?

Oh yes! I remember your birdbath. So lovely! I'm loving your Wax Begonias in the background. They are such joyful plants.

Is your weather cooling down? Its felt quite chilly here today, nice when the sun was out, but much cooler.

It's to get cooler next week. Still feeling like summer here today. I'm eager for some cooler temps.

I'm glad the Queen had good weather for her funeral. I watch a good bit of it and was grateful it wasn't raining or stormy.

Well done on saving her

Venus is doing well for now but I keep a close eye on her even after a year. I was at the hardware store last week (Lowe's) and their orchids were so sad. No watered and they had mealybugs. I couldn't risk infecting my family of orchids with such a pest. Seeing those poor plants unloved broke my heart.

I think I'll have to hold out more hope for #5 .. that's if I buy another? Do you not think its cruel when I keep accidently finish them off?

Most people toss them in early January so even Biggie lived far longer than most of the Poinsettias she was with at the store. Please try again on #5. You came close this time.

Here is Pearl as promised ...

Spoiler: Pearl in full bloom

You can see now why Orkie feels jealous and inadequate

OMG, Pearl is a real beauty! Look at those amazingly large blooms. Whiteys are so special. You do have a way with the orchids my friend. Thanks so much for sharing. I wish I could share but almost all of my orchids are in leaf growing season. No blooms for some time.

Your splendid Orchids have a lot to answer for

They do indeed. :Clol:

Yes, sort of . They're in the same room, but at opposite ends. Do you think I should move them closer together?

There should be no need to unless you sense they are lonely. I often wonder if plants can communicate with each other. Whatever you are going with your orchids it seems to be working my friend.

Jealous? Me jealous? :eck: I don't do jealousy. I just wish you'd chop off your golden locks and give-up going to the gym, that's all..Lol!

Fat chance! Someone has to keep the TT Gym

and the TT Salon

in operation.

We could do with our own Petrol/Gas Station here on TT , that would solve all our problems

Maybe we can stop in Saudi Arabia or the UAE to get a good deal on petrol for our station whist on our Yacht tour?
