I thought you sounded slimmer! Where can I get me one of these metric systems?

...Anywhere in the world except the U.S. ;)

Ptaum, I just have to point out . . . you thought I was bad!! I only had them reading the archives!! Emily is requiring a final exam!!

A bit harsh, I suppose, but this way we can weed out those who are not completely dedicated... :rolleyes:

Can we keep her???? :unsure::lol: ....steal her from other threads (you know once you get sucked in the Silly vortex there ain't alot of time for anything else ^_^ )

Hey, it's already happened! Colleen's supposed to be cleaning her kitchen...and look where she is....

"4 months vacation and five good leads......."

:lol:

and now we have a conundrum . . . what are we going to call Babinsky aka Donna#2? As you can see, we've already had a mix up . . .(sorry Donna#2, you don't actually get a say in this)

D2?

Babs?

Surely there's got to be something funnier than this?

Donna-CA won't do since both are in California . .. . . .

Donninsky? Hmmm I might have something tomorrow .. . . . .

. . . . Right now we're leaning more toward a cross between Dee Snyder from Twisted Sister and Robert Smith from The Cure. We think we can put this combo on MTV and make boatloads of money which we will use to buy lipgloss.

I don't suppose EM has a line of toaster fluids??

Hey! Nice pic 'Manda! I'm contemplating putting up a scary one of my unshaven self. Whiskers can get pretty looonnnng after a couple weeks.

Weird how simple neglect makes for such a different look.

And Bev! (Speaking of neglect) I meant to say I love the lil rock'n'roller in YOUR av!!

I'll go ahead and tell you two guys that there actually is an official entrance exam, an obligatory summative that you must complete. Some sample questions that you may face:

1. Do humans have anal glands?

2. Would it generally be considered a positive experience if one is teabagged by a friend? How about a stranger?

3. In the space provided, draw a flowchart depicting the process of yeti inseam measurement.

They get progressively more challenging....

Donna and Colleen- We like you guys so I'm giving you the answers.

1. Yes, but DO NOT squeeze them!

2. The answer to both is the same- only if he's REALLY REALLY REALLY good-looking and hygienic (example- Brett Favre, but not AFTER a game :P

3. Just draw something REALLY big

Shhh......don't tell Emily :ph34r:

Bloody Hell walking around on stumps, ain't it?

Richard would LOOOVVVVEEE this. You don't start a thread like this if you don't have a sense of humor. On groundhog day, Richard will pop his head above his computer at work and determine if he's got 6 more weeks of paper-shuffling before he can rejoin the thread.

I'm taking pre-emptive ibuprofen . . . and a shot of tequila!.

I can't take it anymore! I WANT TEQUILA AND VODKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amanda- Must agree...you look MAHVELOUSLY beautiful (have you been on this Nekkid Mineral Makeup thread? Did you get ahhh...ladyscaped? That sounds much more perverse than manscaped....

Ptaum- That's my 2 year old niece Roly Poly Coley (Nicole) playing Guitar Hero. She is a HOOT!!!!!!!!! The new one is my 3 year old nephew Cooper rocking out! We're working on forming the next Abba (yes- aLL my nieces and nephews are blonde!)

So things have been a strain on my marriage lately, work, money, and other things. Today John took the car to get an oil change and he came home with a bouquet of flowers for me. :) How sweet!

3. Just draw something REALLY big

Then furiously erase it. Then draw it again, slightly different, reflecting the changes Emily seems so fond of mentioning, then erase it again.

Repeat until the paper is sufficiently smudged and nearly torn.

Apparently, this process can lead to high praise.

Did you get ahhh...ladyscaped? That sounds much more perverse than manscaped....

Perverse!!??? I really don't think that's the right word. :P

Many 1 and 2 syllable words come to mind, but it's almost Sunday so I'm going w/ utilitarian :D:P

Finally got your new av to come up, Amanda, by pressing F5, the magic refresher...You look terrific. Minerals in your makeup, perhaps?

I'm assuming EM is the cosmetic company from our neighboUring thread. I keep thinking you're referring to me.....

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

...Wonder how Erica's bettas are doing?...and that sleepover...wonder if she got Sharpied?...

HELLO SILLIES!!!!!! :D

let's see emily...

i'm really worried about my beta. last time i saw her before i left yesterday she looked fine, but i checked on her maybe an hour or two ago and she was on her side!!! well, not totally, kinda leaning, but now i'm really scared to look again. i really need to make my mom do it... guess i'll ask her as soon as i'm done posting. wish me lots of luck!!! :(

sleepover, HOORAY!!! I HAD SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my friend has a strobe light, and we plugged in that my other friends' iPods and starting singing at the top of our lungs!!!!!!! :D:lol: have any of you ever tried walking with other people walking in different directions with a strobe light flashing??? it is hard!!! oh but you know what's really scary?? if you're sitting down really low (my friend has a mattress on the floor in her basement) and someone that's standing up jumps at you with a strobe light going!! ahhhhhhhh!!! i screamed and put a pillow over my face!! :lol: hehe, no sharpies, not weird pranks :P and most of the time the food wasn't too big of a problem. the only times were when everybody was eating this apple-pie-sorta thingy that looked soooooooooo good but 1 of the ingredients was actually "vital wheat gluten" and when i ate nothing but a plate of chips for lunch until i got home. <_<

ooh, important question!! do i have to take the entrance exam, or have i been here long enough to be a full-blown silly?? :huh::unsure:

amanda you look AMAZING!! :D love ur new pic!!!

and.......... wait i had something else............ oh oh oh!! :lol:

colleen, i insist you post a picture of richard as soon as his makeover's done. ooh, and if someone happens to take a picture of the courier, that will also suffice :D oh even better!! we would like a constant flow of pictures of the makeover-in-progress :lol:

oh hi donna#2!!! someone newer than me!! yay!! although it's kinda fun still being new here... :D

Hi Erica!

Thanks for the comment! Glad to hear the sleepover was fun. Once I slept at a friends house and they had a trampoline and we used to take the strobe lights out at night and jump on the Trampoline in the dark while listening to music. Good times.

I hate the term vital wheat gluten...it always makes it seem like if you dont have it bad things will happen...like Vital Signs or like Vital Supplies...LOL

I think I'd start having seizures..... :wacko:

ooh, important question!! do i have to take the entrance exam, or have i been here long enough to be a full-blown silly?? :huh::unsure:

Frown Lines??!!! On this thread???!!! . . . Those would be laugh lines, Nikki, and those are to be treasured!!!<Plus, I tried F5 and it didn't work. Will require more magic than F5>

Nice new highlights, Amanda!!

OK . . . obviously, we are back from the museum. We lost no urchins scouts in the process . . . will have to try harder next time.

..This is one of the questions on the entrance exam, so we cannot divulge the answer. Here's a hint, however: in about forty pages or so, it will become clearer... :huh::D

      Should not be a problem except for the most sensitive celiacs. The amount of gluten that would get in the air from cooking alone has got to be miniscule. I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and countertops. And what about that toaster you mentioned?
    • knitty kitty
      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure.  These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract.  Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop.  Ataxia is just one of over two hundred symptoms of Celiac Disease. Some people with Celiac Disease also make tTg IgA 6 antibodies in response to gluten exposure.  The tTg IgA 6 antibodies attack the brain, causing ataxia.  These tTg IgA 6 antibodies are also found in people with Parkinson's disease, though they may not have Celiac Disease.  First degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) of those diagnosed with Celiac should be tested as well.  Celiac is genetic.  Your mom and sister should be tested for Celiac, too!   Definitely a good idea to keep to a gluten free diet.  
    • knitty kitty
      @Rebeccaj,  When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air.  Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract.   If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies.  
    • Rebeccaj
      ok thanks for your advice. But my question was what happens when someone you know in a house is cooking pasta or toast that's flour  Airbourne without eating.?
    • knitty kitty
      Do discuss this recent article with your doctors.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is important to intestinal health.  Thiamine deficiency can occur in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption.  Supplementing with a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and Vitamin D can help symptoms.   Thiamine deficiency aggravates experimental colitis in mice by promoting glycolytic reprogramming in macrophages https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39890689/#:~:text=Our mechanistic study revealed that,necessary to protect against colitis. "Conclusion and implications: Our study provides evidence linking thiamine deficiency with proinflammatory macrophage activation and colitis aggravation, suggesting that monitoring thiamine status and adjusting thiamine intake is necessary to protect against colitis."
