Ariston nails it in The Circus concerning the rules for 'Inverary Socks' in response to an enquiry from a concerned recent arrival:
'In general, "established etiquette" is to make up the rules as you go along. So long as nothing important catches fire, or some other catastrophe of Bunessan proportions, things are good.'
I think that covers most games, unless stated otherwise.

That observation is usually more apparent to the one being stomped than to the one doing the stomping.

Pyx_e can be such a snide little dickhead sometimes. which is why I adore him. this made me laugh loud enough to annoy the dog.

Aaand, one more. This one from churchgeek on the Circus thread where we're making up meanings to place names. Here is one expression I think would see a lot of use (more's the pity):
quote:
Bury St. Edmunds - Originally, the order given by the Church hierarchy when St. Edmunds' remains ceased to be incorruptible. Now it is said when someone or something admired goes from being exceptionally extraordinary to merely extraordinary, as in: "They've stripped Lance Armstrong of his titles... guess it's time to bury St. Edmunds."

Just adding some context to that so I remember a year from now--it was on the thread about the ridiculously sexist "Bic for Her" pens.
(Okay to add what I just overheard my kid saying for memory work? "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and astonishing one another with all wisdom. . ." We also got a version along the lines of "demolishing one another..." (Colossians 3:16))

Ariston in Hell
quote:
Well, yes, there's a reason why, no matter what part of the philosophy turf wars you come from, no matter how acrimonious the little battles between methods and disciplines may be, "Ayn Rand sucks festering monkey balls" will never be a controversial statement.
At this point, Rand isn't even a punchline for philosophers. The fact that people who might be elected ever took her seriously is an endless source of shame to us; had we done our job properly, had we educated our students well, if we had reached the general public at all, she would have found her books pulped at practically the same time her vanity press printed them. She wouldn't even be a footnote to a footnote to history—and the fact that she is is a reminder that we have failed.

Firenze explains the differences between Western and Eastern religions:
quote:
In Olden Days the water wasn't safe to drink. In the West, they learnt to ferment it, in the East to boil it. That is why the Confucian Analects are full of things like 'The virtuous man is unfailingly polite' and the Bible of 'And lo he smit him hip and thigh and then got smote back only he missed and fell down in the place thereof and saith lewd things'.

Adeodatus on the Book of Revelation:
It's a common misconception that Revelation was written by a drunk. Actually it was written by two.
"So there's this beast, right..."
"No, there's two beasts."
"Right. So there's two beasts."
"And an angel."
"Two beasts and ... let's say some angels, 'kay?"
"And one beast's got ten heads."
"And seven horns."
"Is that the same beast?"
"Um ... no, look, it's seven heads and ten horns."
"On one beast?"
"No, there's two beasts."
"So there's seven beasts with two heads..."
"No, one beast with seven heads."
"Or ten heads."
"And two horns."
"Right. Right. No. Right, I've got it. There's some beasts, and they've got horns and heads."
"But maybe ... maybe the beasts are actually the same beast."
"So there's only one beast?"
"Yeah. No. Hang on, wait a minute...."
And so the long evening wore on.

Martin PC Not has started a delightful Hell call for our tender, young Mr. Betts. Martin is in rare form; Doublethink is enforcing language for comprehension; and Pyx_e is superb as usual.
Here is a sample from Martin PC Not and Ship's Biohazard: quote:
The Fall made us ALL terrified psychopaths. No wonder we can't think. Analytical thinking is extremely hard work. What most of us think is thinking, isn't. Isn't analytical. It's experiential. Heuristic. What we do to cross the road, tie our show laces, at Tescos. In our relationships. In our development. In our inculturation. In our religion.
Science is beautiful. Really, really beautiful. I find it far more moving than most (Brit. understatement) sermons. I was moved to tears by the latest pictures of molecular bonds by IBM.
It is moral. Pure. It is our duty since Adam named the animals. It answers Pilate. Thy Word is truth.
Why does it frighten you so ? Are you a better Christian for denying it ? Are you a better Christian than those that embrace it ? What can you possibly lose by embracing it ?
Childhood ?
One fear for another.
That's not a question.

This, is poetry:

Well said Mark.
You, Jamat, me in my time, those I have loved more than life itself (yeah, easy to say that) and all too many smart people who are NOT actually mentally ill, believe their beliefs.
I mean really. Believe the most bizarre, absurd nonsense more than life itself. Conspiracy theories. Lies. Without being paranoid schizophrenes. I'm a VERY simple minded early old man with the cognitive wossname that goes with that. Impairment. Although I can still ... there that's better, alter the character set of an Oracle10g database as we speak. So, I believe, like Eric Fromm I believe, that fear is the key to being human. To feeling and thinking. And a feeling is a collapsed, undifferentiated train of thought.

He likes your certainty, your devoutness, your rightness. Like a moth to the flame that has burnt his mind to a frazzle he is drawn to your unbending absoluteness. He would save you the pains of being flailed (or self inflicting such wounds).
In the same way you would guard your child’s gaze from a hurtful scene on the TV so Martin reaches out and tries to place his broken palms over your sweet little eyes.
I think it’s lovely, such love for such a fool from such a mad prophet, poetic even. Me I would slam your gonads with mallet in an attempt to beat the stupid out of you. Martin gives you a vocabulary ridden poesy. He likes you.

Oh my God, that tool is awesome. My end-of-relationship communication is officially 7 grades more readable than the end-of-relationship communication of the person with whom the relationship ended due to difficulty with communication!
Flesch Kincaid Grade level : 12.74
Shit on a toadstool ... if that's communication then Mitt Romney has a braincell

I quote that in great love for Martin and his posts!

Amen.

Gosh. I've never come down here before. Rather pleased to see which of my recent efforts made the cut, 'cause I thought it was a good one at the time.

Indeed.
And it seems I was totally on fire in April. Trying to remember what happened in April... I think that was when the university course from hell finished and I hadn't yet developed a love life.

So yes, that probably is what will happen. Timey-wimey and to hell with continuity!

Interesting, love as the death of creativity. So, I owe those who've extracted my heart with a wrecking bar, not castigation, but commission? A percentage? Might be a novel approach, though.
Hello, gorgeous, I wager you can make me rich...
