we never ate at the table when I was a kid.Hmm?
Now that we are adults, I expect a sizeable amount of eating to be done at this fictional table.

Pish-posh. The nice thing about PAS is that 99% of the time the most annoying people are the necessary irritant around which forms a lustrous pearl of new perspectives, usefully provocative argument and downright entertaining filth. :)
Why, thank you. So my concern now is the only way is down. Peaking early. It's a national affliction.
ETA: It's wonderful when you miss a couple of posts, and somehow feed the innuendo stream without even realising it.
Carry on. -
Even curiouser experience to read this entire thread through without being in the heat of it. It's like a symphony in 5 movements. Tuning in, I guess I can only say I'm anticipating a climax.

I have reliable intelligence that my lap isn't clean enough to eat your dinner off. So to speak...

I bet it is a lot cleaner than many things that I have eaten.

What, hasn't it happened yet? I've already tabled a report.
ETA: Here I am on the bloody top again. Just sayin'.

A mayoral candidate wants to spend $$$ on free citywide Wifi in Wellington. Which seems a waste of resources when we already have 3G. And what will stop people using it instead of home internet to download petabytes of movies?
There's free public wifi in Dunedin's octagon. I presume it's the city council's set up.
I think they get around people abusing it by clamping the speed down to something not much faster than dialup.

That's what she said.

That's because we're lazy.

I go away for two days, and you guys turn Russell's post into smut-orama.
I love PAS.

Umm, little bit afraid now. Thank goodness Emma and Megan aren't here too.
Have you ever noticed that 'umm' and 'mum' are really the same word? We just start using 'umm' when it becomes too embarrassing to yell 'mum!'
ETA: And there you are, Megan arrives exactly on cue. I'm hiding...
No seriously, that was freakin' eerie. -

Hey! Except, oh....yeah, OK.
I would heap on the filth. Except, my head is currently overflowing with comments I want to make about something Emma said 2 pages ago.
Witness my (ahem) restaint, people. It doesn't happen very often.

This typo is making me think of gloriously backwards Steampunk hats and doubled-up chains and "yo yo yo, I say, good sir!" type talking.
You may have just invented a genre. Steampunk Rap.
I'd certainly go for a pair of turntables styled along the lines of those steampunk keyboards that keep cropping up around the internet. As long as they also came with an unfeasibly large pair of horn-style speakers.

Oh, I'm here. I'm just... watching. Don't let me stop you.

Karl-pooling?

But do you wish it did?

And all this in a thread dedicated to my sainted mother ...

I'll never think about "tabling" reports in Parliament in quite the same way. Cross thread pollution, I'll be over that way --> .
Although now that I mention it, the thought of Parliament fan-fic is perversely appealing.

Russell, I had my own sainted mother staying with me this weekend. I cooked dinner last night, for her and a bunch of people. There was a conversation between Mum, and a gentleman of Emma's acquaintance, that made _me_ blush. And that's tough to do.
I'm sure your mother would approve, really.
Emma: That's the one. But like I said to Jo over on twitter, it's not quite so fun when you hand it to me on a platter like that.

She can't be all that saintly; she must have had sex at least twice!

Tush... give me an hour, and she'll know all the lyrics to 'The Good Ship Venus', be dancing on a table with someone else's knickers on her head and have you in industrial-strength family therapy for the rest of your life. That's not a threat, it's a solemn vow.

I'm trying to exercise some self control. Now there's an audience. Performance anxiety. It's a real killer.

I blame Outrageous Fortune. After last week it seems there is no limit. And, strangely enough, it involved tables. Prison tables.

I feel compelled to point out that "a gentleman of Emma's acquaintance" is one of the few things on this page that isn't a euphemism. My friendship with the gentleman in question even survived my drunken use of the phrase "If it wasn't for my husband and my boyfriend I'd fucking have you", or words to that effect.
-
Oh come on. It was a little bit of a euphemism....

I think the original thread was euphemised a while back.

Eeww!
