No card. Kick him in the head.

Star Wars III Parody - apparently written by Sebby

Star Wars III: A Lost Hope.

JACKSON, Miss. - Yoda's tiny green hand is wrapped around a cold beer, not a lightsaber, as he listens to Mace Windu complain about being the only black Jedi.

The trailer pokes fun at new and old "Star Wars" characters, including Jar Jar Binks, who's pummeled with shots from a dart gun throughout the trailer.

Bullock, 27, a Web site developer and part-time filmmaker, said he is not a big fan of the prequels. He was annoyed by Jake Lloyd, the child actor who portrayed Anakin Skywalker in "The Phantom Menace" — "it wasn't believable to me that that's the cat that is going to grow up to be Darth Vader" — and thought Hayden Christensen was too whiny to be the future Vader.

Added boneus: He will do quality legal work.

Question
 

Let me get this straight - sending a card to your ex-husband is a Bad Idea in light of the divorce but getting together to do something fun is ok? You think he won't remember that it's their anniversary?

I know less than anyone about the dynamics of the relationship under discussion here, but one thing is for certain: you can't get into a bitter argument with a greeting card.

Question
 

Note I said "get together and do something fun together" first.

Question
 

You forgot the brownie bouquet.

Question
 

GWNC, your divorce is not at all contentious though, right? Mine wasn't and I still see the ex-Mr. Kiss frequently. We are more likely to be sappy and make out than to fight.

Question
 

Fringy just looks for opportunities to eat cake.

BTW, fringy there was a mini-revolt when I suggested that we didn't need to do anything special about at birthday party other than get together. "No cake" was immediately discarded as the delusional ramblings of a deranged mind. I think that there may be an intervention at the party based entirely on the "no cake" suggestion alone.

Question
 

A card that is specifically in honor of an event that is being legally nullified is weird. They seem to get together and/or talk as friends sometimes; why not now?

It's like, if a friend's only child has died, you don't send a mother's day card. You have dinner with them or whatever to provide company in time of stress.

Possibly she could call his friends and make sure they take him out. Which I was going to say, but didn't.

Question
 

And don't forget to bring your new boyfriend to the cake-eating party!

(You're welcome -- I'm always here for you Gwink, with a helpful hint, and a smile.)

Question
 

Not contentious at all. We wouldn't make out, but we never argued, so I doubt we would start now. I think I will bag the card and suggest that we go out sometime.

eta cake is a very good idea. Thanks fringey.

Question
 

And don't forget the muffin basket!

Question
 

You are reminding me of the "no cake" event that I think I should have recognized would inevitably lead to the end of a friendship. IT WAS MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY!

Ahem.

Question

There is cake for every occassion.

Question
 

Sometimes the best thing a friend can do is to say "No- enough!"

Question
 

Question
 

Ah. Gotcha.

I am in semi-regular contact with one of my exes (with whom I lived in a state of sin for several years), and we get together from time to time, but it would never occur to me to send her a card commemorating any part of our relationship, nor have I ever received one from her.

I have a hard enough time remembering significant dates associated with my current relationship. Plus also the penalties for forgetting are considerably more severe.

Question
 

Uh. Sorry. Would you like a cookie? Or some saltines?

Question
 

You can't even get my fake accent straight? It's like you don't even know me.

Bubble-bursting for $200, please, Alex.
 

He probably sucked a lot of dick, but his parents' connections got him his start, I'm sure.

I hate most of his movies, but he had the highest grossing comedy in the history of the world or some shit: Meet the Fockers (2004): Total US Gross: $279,167,575

That buys him like 10 more flops.

Question
 

Sorry, but this is the official (ice cream) cake of the FB:

Question
 

No.

If he's sad, do something else that would be nice (like buy him a video game he would enjoy or something) for him some other time. Don't connect anything to your marriage or your anniversary or you and him in any way. You want your marriage to be over. You don't want him thinking there are residual feelings that mean you are in any way open to the idea of the two of you getting back together. People seize onto these things, ignoring everything else to the contrary. Especially when they're all sad and shit.

Norm came back to host SNL the season after he was fired. In his opening monologue, he said he was fired because NBC didn't think he was funny. Then NBC asked him to host, which either meant he had gotten a lot funnier in just a few months, or "this show really blows." He then said that he didn't think he had gotten much funnier in a few months, so . . .

Question
 

When I was in college, for someone's birthday, four of us went to Baskin Robbins and got an ice cream cake. We knew that it'd melt if we didn't eat it soon, because none of us had a freezer, so the four of us devoured the whole thing in the Baskin Robbins with the poor guy behind the counter staring on in disbelief. I don't think he'd ever witnessed a food orgy like that before. Four women simultaneously agreeing to blow any semblance of diet and gorging on ice cream cake is a scary thing to watch, apparently.

I've just broken a vow of silence. If you don't hear from me in a few days, assume that one of the other three took me out.

We'll all be back once they stop letting in the Irish.

Rejoice
 

I think Norm McDonald is really funny. But his comedy doesn't fit into doing several different characters each week. He only has the one.

Question
 

Go with your first feeling. The card is either gonna be a kick in the head, or make him think you want him back.

Question
 

AHEM!!!!

Question
 

WHile I secretly may or may not agree that Carvel makes the best ice cream cake in the entire world, there is no official ice cream cake of the FB unless it is a cake from Friendly's. Though their ice cream pies kicked their ice cream cake's ass.

Rejoice
 

Dennis Miller couldn't act, either, but at least Weekend Update was funny. Norm had WU + the Larry King parody.

Rejoice
 

Of course he is.

+ Burt Reynolds on Jeopardy, which is, inexplicably, really fucking funny.

I haven't watched since Charles Rocket was on. Man, those were the days. . .
 

That was a very nice way to tell me that I don't have a clue as to what the heck I am talking about.

I haven't watched since Charles Rocket was on. Man, those were the days. . .
 

I thought Norm was fired b/c one of the honchos at NBC was a friend of OJ's and disliked Norm's OJ jokes, but Norm wouldn't stop doing them.

To learn more about my fake accent, go to the "toys" section and play couple of rounds of the "Whit yay lookin it?" game. Turn on the sound.

Question
 

I'm now eagerly awaiting the PPV throw-down three-way fight between ncs, cookiepuss, and fudgie the whale. Mmmm, fudgie.

Rejoice
 

And Bob Dole -- how can you forget Bob Dole? ("Ask me about being a war hero!")

His Burt Reynolds (on Jeopardy!) was good also.

Rejoice
 

Not true. Bob Dole on Real World was very funny. I know it. You know it. And the American people know it.

The WWE could take some pointers from these guys. Did anyone tivo this?

"Spectators cheered as entire Cambodian Midget Fighting League squared off against African Lion

The fight was slated when an angry fan contested Yang Sihamoni, President of the CMFL, claiming that one lion could defeat his entire league of 42 fighters.

.
.
.

The Cambodian Government allowed the fight to take place, under the condition that they receive a 50% commission on each ticket sold, and that no cameras would be allowed in the arena.

The fight was called in only 12 minutes, after which 28 fighters were declared dead, while the other 14 suffered severe injuries including broken bones and lost limbs, rendering them unable to fight back.

Sihamoni was quoted before the fight stating that he felt since his fighters out-numbered the lion 42 to 1, that they “… could out-wit and out-muscle [it].”

Unfortunately, he was wrong."
