Fun with food, part two

Jun 13, 2006 16:54

It's been a while since I've posted an embarrassing food incident. This one is not as amusing, or humiliating, as the The Purloined Lunch. But I know a few folks on my f-list are feeling down or having a tough time. And what better medicine than to laugh at a fellow LJer ( Read more... )

Hey, you! I never thanked you for my birthday balloons. That was so sweet of you. I'll try to sign on AIM tomorrow night. I've been working so much lately, I haven't been around.

Does this mean the muses are active? : )

TORTILLAS!

I am not sure the funniest part of this story, the fact that you randomly yelled "Tortillas!" in the midst of conversation, or that your chosen replacement for "tortillas" throughout your dinner was "pancakes". Pancakes? Seriously? You are so adorable.

Thanks for the laugh. And for reminding me of when you stole The New Guy's sandwich, because damn, that one deserves a revisit. ::cracks up:: You are so funny!

Yay, I'm glad you got a laugh. I reread the lunch story, too, and in one of the comments, I talked about another humiliating incident ("Hi, I'm Daniel...") and was giggling about it for the whole train ride home.

Also, just to defend my choice of "pancakes" as a substitute - have you ever had Moo Shi (commonly called Moo Shu in other places)? It comes with these pancakes, kind of like Chinese tortillas. I swear, I'm not a complete lost cause!

That's hysterical. You should post it as a self-mock in mock_the_stupid

Also, I love your Oz mood icons. Where can I get myself a set? :)

Wait, there's a community called "Mock the stupid" and I don't know about it??? Must check out immediately... We'll see if I'm game enough to mock myself.

My mood icons were made by the fabulous solamentenic as part of a charity auction. But I think they are probably up for grabs. And there are others around, I think. I'll see if I can find some and let you know.

Aw, thanks!

And yes, join the community! It's a lot of fun!

heh .. I remember your purloined lunch story, and one of the suggestions to offer it back to him *g*.

And hey, atleast you remembered that it was tortillas. That counts for something.

ultraviolet730 June 14 2006, 02:27:34 UTC

Hee - I reread the comments and laughed again at that suggestion!

And how are you? Sorry I've been so scarce. Work has been kicking my butt. Speaking of kicking... I've been enjoying your soccer posts!

lostingeekdom June 14 2006, 03:45:35 UTC

Heh ..I've been ok .. though missing our drinky sessions. Glad you like th soccer posts. Lots more pretty will be coming up in the future. *g*

Hee.

So happy to see this here! I'm a little laissez-faire with my F-list, but this totally makes me see why I gotta Pay!More!Attention!

If it makes you feel any better, I once threw a fork at my father in a restaurant, in a fit of pique. Over an argument we were having about the ending of Titanic. Everyone in the place stopped talking, sit-com style, and stared at us, while the nice woman who owned the place picked up the fork and ran off to get me a new one.

I kinda suck that way.

Yay - my first Xara comment! I'm trying to get Arminda to join us here on LJ. I forgot to tell her that she can post anonymously.

I have trouble keeping up with my f-list. I think all you young'uns are better at this newfangled interweb!

Can I assume that the argument with your father was a question of whether the movie was 45 minutes too long or just a half hour?

If I ever come to Toronto, I'll try to avoid controversial subjects when we're around flatware.

dreamylyfe June 14 2006, 03:06:12 UTC

Yeah, sadly... the fight was about why people cry at the end of Titanic. Apparently it's because women are evil and selfish.

I kept pointing out that I hadn't cried at the end of Titanic, and finally I threw the fork down on the table, but... It bounced.

My father actually looked shocked.

I've dropped the LJ address Arminda's way, too. I have other lures I plan to unleash shortly.

Lures?! I'm open to being lured. Honest! dreamylyfe June 14 2006, 17:48:26 UTC

Oops.

I guess you don't need a lure if I've already surfaced.

Ignore This.
