Geek humour

LMAO! I think we need to establish a virtual pub as an offshoot of the Caritas forum. We'd have to give it an appropriately pub-ish name... The Stake and Cross, maybe, or The Rusty Fang. Or how about...er...The Inn of the Prancing Evil?

Good idea! What was the name of the pub in "American Werewolf in London"? I've a vague recollection that it was something quite suitable for this board...
 
Thanks for the PM Mr Pointy and I would love to say I really get the joke but unfortunately my brain just doesn't seem to want to understand it.

I think I will have to be delegated the job of pouring your pints for you (in your new pub!) while all you boys have your talks in the corner!

That would be "THE SLAUGHTERED LAMB......which should attract lots of drunken, werewolf-phobic Welshmen. 😛

So, a pub for geeks, eh? Well, I'm not much of a geek....as I have CLEARLY proven, lol, and I don't drink much anymore....I'd be nursing a single mug of Guiness all night.....but I'd be honored to hang out with you two talkers-of-the-strange-code-language, buy a few rounds,and just watch you drink each other under the table......while I go and invent some new extreme, mutant form of dart game.......

But listen, Mr. Pointy and LD.....try and keep your strange code talk to a minimum inside the pub, or Nicholas Cage might be forced to shoot you if Japanese soldiers try to take you hostage.....

(how's THAT for a weird, geeky, obscure reference? 😛 😛 😛 😛 )

Good call on the pub name, OM! And fortunately for matters of post-New Deal national security, my Navajo just ain't what it used to be. 😀

You see what I mean about OM being too cool to be a geek? Any self-respecting nerd would've worked in an "X-files" reference there - OM goes for the Nic Cage movie.

BTW I seem to be using "Geek" and "Nerd" interchangeably here - I hope this is not a major faux pas. I wouldn't want a nerd/geek fatwah ordered on me...

Yeah...erm, I don't want to cause a panic, but Cat Stevens was just here asking about you... something about the capital indiscretions of the infidel Mr. Pointy... it's probably nothing.

Uhh...hey guys.....Stephen Hawking is sitting out by the front door in a really mean-looking wheelchair......he doesn't look happy.......
 
I have nothing but the deepest respect for Cat Stevens and his beliefs - I only wish I could remember his preferred name (Yousef Islam?) and I have no wish to upset him or his more radical fellow-worshippers😉 Prof. Hawking seems to have more than enough problems of his own recently (have you seen the latest news about him - Munchausen's by proxy anyone? Poor sod)
 
I think is safe for me to say......HUH????????????????????????? I don't even understand it with an explaination.........::hangs head in shame:: I'm not a geek...oh no....I'm one fo the few people in this world who is ashamed because I'm NOT a geek, what is wriong with me? lol
 
Yeah, I heard Prof Hawkins' wife is beating him up! So evil! I'll send out a linch mob to track her down! I'm not a geek guys but do you think I could have a place at your table if i offer to buy a few rounds? 🙂

Of course you can.

BTW for those who are interested in Hawking here's an article from today's Times about the situation.

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-989957,00.html

There's something weird, and possibly unhealthy, going on there...
 
Hey elmo, welcome to The Slaughtered Lamb!
You sure ya don't mind hanging with us Old Dudes? 😛


I actually HAD heard about what's been happening to Mr. Hawking a while ago.

It's a damned shame, I tell ya. Abuse of the handicapped is heinous enough as it is......and to have it happen to such a great man is downright unforgivable.

And to make fun of such a thing is just WRONG. A few days ago, there were a couple of New York City's so-called radio "shock jocks" laughing and making fun of Mr Hawking's situation.
I tell ya.....sometimes it's very hard to believe in God when certain people in this world don't get hit by lightning.
