Be as boring as possible.

I like green tea ginger ale- its helps with seasickness and lowers cholesterol (i made that up but you'll believe it)

Oh, sarcasm. *Yawn*

It IS really difficult to find a good bagel outside of NYC. Don't anybody mention Montreal, cause the ensuing fight would not be boring.

Bagels look like donuts.

I like the hole...

 

[tekgirl]

I like the hole...

I agree. Donut holes are yummy!

I think I'll have some hot chocolate tonight.

 

[hungdavid]

I agree. Donut holes are yummy!

Yes.. those too...

 

[tekgirl]

Yes.. those too...

What other holes could you have possibly...Oh. Never mind.

1933 double eagle gold is a good start

Hey everyone! I just used my right ventricle to pump deoxygenated blood to my lungs!

 

[respeito]

Hey everyone! I just used my right ventricle to pump deoxygenated blood to my lungs!

and that comment was as serious as a myocardial infarction

In 10 minutes it will be 9:00.

My alarm went off after I was already up and dressed this morning. This is my limit for excitement today.

 

[LilyPru]

Today I made a list of jobs where you get to where a pith helmet:
Lion tamer
Mailman
British colonial explorer

That was a vaguely engaging 3 minutes.

 

[tekgirl]

Pith is a funny word.

 

[midwestyankee]

Pith is a funny word.

So is plinth, but I shouldn't make such base remarks.

I once got a splinther from such a remark. Tweezers took care of it.

I see what you did there. Very pithy.

 

[daus42]

Is that an aphorism?

Oh, good heavens. Y'all take me back to my youth (yes, when the dinosaurs reigned over the earth) when we indulged in a form of (alleged) humor called "Tom Swifties."

Tom Swifties originated thusly, according to Wikipedia:

The series' writing style, which was sometimes adverb-heavy, suggested a name for a type of adverbial pun promulgated in the 1960s, the "Tom Swifties". Some examples are: "'I lost my crutches,' said Tom lamely"; and "'I'll take the prisoner downstairs', said Tom condescendingly."
​

Tom Swifties were a frequent roadtrip entertainment for my family, and our contributions to the genre included such memorable examples as (remember, this was some 40 to 50 years ago)...

"Stop at the next gas station, please," said Tom pithily.
"I can't find my wife!" exclaimed Tom Ruthlessly.
"The tornado stripped the shingles from the house," said Tom ruefully.
"I'd like Chinese food for dinner," said Tom wantonly.​

Ah, the good old days of innocent humor, even if it was rather punny.

Does that have something to do with aphids?

 

[Sir_Winston54]

Does that have something to do with aphids?

"My flowers have aphids," said Tom rosily.

 

[daus42]

Does that have something to do with aphids?

Only if you are sucking sap.

 

[tekgirl]

Only if you are sucking sap.

Sucking sap? Is that an alliteration?

Slowly she sucks sap seductively.

Aphid larvae do bore into the leaves and stems of plants.
