Conservative Thread: We cannot do everything at once, but we can do something at once

[Dolce27]

How can the Tag Fairy be a foot......and a Fairy?

These are confusticating times......I am flummoxed...

Mr. Man... I think it's time for you to get tagged. Try to be more witty, will ya?

Hasten thyself over to yon thread and get thee fitted for a worthy tag!

Like the new tag!

Michelle- Oh! Billy Joe McGuffrey. Cute song!

Michelle- Oh! Billy Joe McGuffrey. Cute song!

Yeah that one! Any idea where to find it?

 

[Tink & Goofy]

If you want to hear the whole Billy Joe song, there's a video for it on the Jonah DVD.
Don't ask me how I know this.

I don't have a tag, either. I can talk about underpants all day long and the tag fairy never sees me.

 

[VonBaroketch]

I am thinking they already have me "tagged".

I'm on "Dis-probation" for either argumentive or sarcastic language (hard to tell which of my numerous offenses is applicable because each of them is special, distinct and understatedly snarky in it's own unique way.

See what I mean?



But it has been fun. I have no regrets, except for that nekkid run through the budget board on Election Night. I think we can all agree that was not well thought out (it was cold in there.....no heat......)

This is exactly why I am pleased to find this thread. After two probations for offending the Dis Moral Majority (once for disagreeing with the non-smoking policies at the hotels and again for suggesting sleeping five adults in a room reserved for two), it is a relief to engage in friendly conversation with like-minded Dissers. I admit, part of the fun was unveiling the lack of humor on the other boards (I suggested a non-smoking policy makes way for a weight-limit policy for those wearing swimsuits at the pools, which got quite a rise from the new castrati..."That's not funny, Mr. VonBaroketch!"). Now that I met the Dis-Cons, I can enjoy the good cheer without fear of the Dis-Schutzstaffel.

THANKS!!! I'll find it. I love that song.

They called you Mr.? Wow, you must have been floored!

Hey, they essentially have weight restrictions on airplanes. If you're a very big person you have to pay for two seats. Why not have a bathing suit policy? Or a restriction on the bathing suit size that is inversely proportional to the amount of body hair a person has?

 

[SwedishMeatball]

I did alot of digital as well as traditional albums for family and friends. In fact, I just finished a huge digital wedding album for my son and his wife's first anniversary that I had bound into a book. They had a small, quiet wedding the weekend after Thanksgiving last year for just siblings and parents. It caused some flack with the rest of the family, but that's the way it goes.

Speaking of recipes, I also was involved in a holiday recipe exchange right here on the DIS several years ago, which I have on my photo site. If you'd like to take a look at some of my albums, here's the link.

Wow, you are very talented. Your letter to Lauren brought tears to my eyes.

 

[studentmom]

Someone should invite the tag fairy on over here. She'd find some fun, witty conservatives. We could bribe her with food!
But then, I need to find something witty to say.

Uh oh! I'm going to be late for class. That's what I get for DISing before school. See you all later!

 

[wonderlanne]

Here's a pic of the dress except mine is the full-length version.

So

pretty dress!

No, that was a bad attempt at impersonating Rush. Although, I think a bad impersonation of Rush is better than not impersonating him! Is he still sick, does anyone know? I'm a couple of days behind on my 24/7.

That's right! One of the non-smoking sympathizers said she did not like smelling the smoke that drifted off balconies while she walked by, that her daughter has asthma and could be physically affected by it. I conceded her point as valid and suggested that since I have a visceral reaction to seeing certain body types in swimsuits, there should be a weight limit. As long as I am paying Disney prices, I will demand that other guests (who cares if they are paying, too?) shall comply to my desires. And for this, I was tagged!

BTW - Anyone else see the anti-Catholic post on the podcast board? It has lasted for two pages! I think I may have put a stop to it. I studied a couple of years in the seminary for the priesthood, just so none of you take me seriously regarding my response on it.

I used to be a smoker but quit. My son is not around smoke but when we walk past someone who is smoking I say nothing. Walking past a smoking area for 10 seconds when he's never around it otherwise isn't going to hurt him or me. They're not smoking on the rides, for pity's sake.
Now granted, I don't want him around it. But like I said, 10 seconds once a year isn't going to damage him beyond repair.

And you're right, of course...since I don't do or like certain things I should demand that other paying guests acquiesce to my requests!
I don't drink. Perhaps I should demand that they don't serve alcohol anywhere?

Welcome! I have also noticed the lack of humor "out there" lately.

This calls for a joke!

I love the Ultimate Silly Song Countdown!

Barbara Manateeeee...you are the one for meeeee...sent from up abooooove, you are the one I love!

My favorite is the Cheeseburger song. "I'll wait for you-oo, oh I'll wait for you-oo!"

 

[Family Fun Mom]

Mr. Man, you are so bad. But I love it!

 

[blestmom]

It was so cold here the last two days (below zero) and our heater just happens to be in my scrapbook room...so that is where the cats were hanging out.

And...my daughter took a picture of the snow in our yard...

Ah, younguns.

The Old Dominion is another name for Virginia. Explanation:

The Old Dominion: This nickname for the state of Virginia originated in Colonial days. Dominion refers to complete ownership of a particular piece of land or territory.

Because he considered the Virginians "the best of his distant children," sometime around 1663, King Charles II of England elevated Virginia to the position of dominion along with England, Scotland, Ireland, and France.

The citizens of Virginia were pleased with this elevated status because they considered themselves the most faithful of the King's settlements in America. Since their settlement was the oldest of King Charles' settlements in America, they adopted the name "The Old Dominion." A variation of this name is "The Ancient Dominion."

Mother of Presidents: Sometimes Virginia is called the "Mother of Presidents" because so many of the early presidents of the United States were native Virginians.

Mother of Statesmen: Because of the number of statesmen produced by Virginia, this nickname has been used.

Mother of States: Virginia has been called the "Mother of States" because she was the first of the states to be settled and because of the number of states that were "born" of the Virginia territory. West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin and, even a part of Minnesota were all a part of the original Virginia territory.

The Cavalier State: This nickname is derived from the Cavaliers (supporters of King Charles I during the English Civil War) who left England and came to Virginia during, and shortly after, the reign of King Charles I of England.

Down Where the South Begins: Radio broadcasters referred to Virginia as "Down Where the South Begins" because of its location. Virginia is the most southern of the Middle Atlantic States.

Gotcha! Thanks for the history lesson.

Fake crab is awesome when making dip. I make one with worcheshire sauce, cream cheese, parsley, tabasco, minced garlic, fake crab meat, mayo...I think that's it. Throw it in a bowl and nuke it. Don't ask for the recipe. I lost it a long time ago. I just kind of throw things in a bowl until it's right.

My mom made something like that one year. She made it in a football shape since it was Super Bowl Sunday.

To be honest, Disney Studios is my least favorite park. Not that I don't like it...I do...but if I had to rank them, it would come in fourth place for me.

So...for those of you who really like it, do you have any suggestions/ideas for fun stuff? Maybe not so obvious?

Besides the big stuff there, we searched out some new stuff (well, new to us) last year that made it a lot of fun...the Disney Animation thing, the mochas at the Writer's bookstore, the chocolate croissants at the bakery (my treat to myself after riding Tower of Terror!)

Any other cool things about this park you can share?

Just ToT. I haven't ridden RNRC yet (but will do so Christmas morning!). AK is my least favorite park. Thank God they built EE so I have an excuse to go there!

Heard a cute blonde joke this morning.......for all you "blondes".

Dolly Parton was asked if she was offended by blonde jokes.

(to which she replied)

"Heck no, I know I'm not dumb.

And............

I ALSO know I'm NOT blonde."

I like!!! Dolly is one of my favorite people.

Have we figured out what happened to the orange smell?

I haven't. Please tell me SOMEONE has!!!

Careful! the Tag Fairy is afoot!

Well good, I'll get to being witty and say something tag-worthy.

I am thinking they already have me "tagged".

I'm on "Dis-probation" for either argumentive or sarcastic language (hard to tell which of my numerous offenses is applicable because each of them is special, distinct and understatedly snarky in it's own unique way.

I'm good at being witty offline, but on the boards.... I can't be witty in writing. It's impossible because being witty sounds better in spoken words, not typed ones.

Ain't that the truth!

See...it just goes to show everyone likes different things. We "love" Animal Kingdom. For me it's a refreshing change of pace and more of a relaxed day. And Expedition: Everest quickly became my all-time favorite ride. We rode over and over again last year until they literally shut the doors.

I like AK, but I don't love it like I do Epcot. But if Soarin' wasn't around, I suppose MK would be my happy haunt (no, wait, "happy haunt" fits HM more ).

 

[Tink & Goofy]

Well, HM is in the MK.
