The Battle For My Wallet V: Beyond the Number IV (Chapter Eighteen, p.75, 5/18)

[jessi1375]

I want to play too.......

ZZUB, I have enjoyed reading your TR's and look forward to having my Monday morning coffee every other week with your installment. Great to see you spending more time here!!!

 

[RockinDisney]

I do a lot of lurking and reading of trip reports. After reading this report I feel the need to go back and read all of your trip reports. This report is so special and so full of fun and good feeling that it makes me glad to be a Disser….did I use that term correctly…

I did of course worry about reading this report… I mean who would have thought an Alabama fan could have such a way with words?

P.S. I think I am going to have KFC for dinner in honor of this report

 

[LaLa]

No offense, La2.

None taken. After all, it's not like you insulted my alma mater. Recently.

 

[LaLa]

For Georgia. So she'll know who to look for on Main Street...

Who knew he wasn't kidding about being a Redneck?! Ditto the whole balding not bald thing. No wonder your daughter got sick on the "boat ride"! At any rate, I can't wait to hear how fast your little contraption there got you around World Showcase Lagoon.

Bring on the next chapter!

Are you sure you're an attorney and not an engineer?

 

[ZZUB]

jessi1375: It's a shame you like extra crispy. Now you're on ignore.

You've obviously never read Frickles' Trip Reports. She does Alabama proud. She's none too good with the math, but she can put a noun and verb together real nice like.

After all, it's not like you insulted my alma mater.

I'm not sure the Texaco New Employee Training Program counts as an alma mater. But I'm sorry for calling it Krusty Burger U.

Or am I?

Blah blah blah blah blah.

Again.

Ok.

Moving on:


I would've been here sooner to complain about your last Chapter 'O Tripe but the truth is...


I actually really like it. And therefore was busy eviscerating my own thorax with an overly large spoon.

Which takes a whil e (three words) and hurts. Alot (one word).


Actually, I've been busy NOT making the Dean's List at my *new and exciting* Cake Decorating Class.

(Don't laugh or I'll go all Basketweave Design on your butt!)


Ugggghhh.


Even frosting can't make some things look better.


Heh heh.


Anywho...


You see, after making and breaking my New Year's Resolution to Not Swear Like A Longshoreman within the first hour of '08 (three times, I might add), I decided to sign up for some new fun.


Cake Decorating with other...errrrr... folks.


Here is my long and wildly annoying list(NORustyScupper) of the things I've learned so far in my first month of Cake Decorating For Dummies(NOMel):

1. I don't much like to eat cake.
2. I sometimes like to have my cake and eat it too. Yet, I always seem to regret it. Afterwards.
3. See #1.
4. Sometimes crow might taste better than cake.
5. Or not.
6. I like cake now even LESS than I did last year.
7. No one wants to go out with me for beer and wings after Cake Class.
8. The teacher hates Me(l).
9. Because of my *first* cake creation... which was a lovely cake which didn't rise properly. Decorated to look like a pie.
10. Now...THAT...I enjoyed. Presenting to the stupid class.
11. My best frosting colour mixtures are black and grey(ish).
12. I HATE measuring ingredients.
13. Even more than that... I HATE people who find measuring ingredients therapeutic. I don't even WANT to go out for beer and wings with them. Anyway.
14. (Is "therapeutic" one of those words??????? That lose all meaning with overuse really quickly???)
15. Yep.
16. I'm the only one in the class who refuses to wear an apron. I tie my sweatshirt around my waist backwards instead.
17. I realize it still looks somewhat like an apron. NOMel.
18. My first try at making my Superbowl Football Cake... for grading purposes...resulted in something more than just vaguely obscene.


Now then...all this fun and crazy action on ZZUB's thread warms my teeny tiny heart. Even as I report his posts to the Mods for various pointworthy infractions.


Roll Tide!

Cheers, Mel.

P.S. Nice pic La! Beauty!

ZZUB ~ cut your hair fringe. You look like a girl. Who's balding but not yet bald. Wearing a cap.

Well it's about DARN TIME somebody brought some funny around here! Because obviously ZZUB ain't capable. Texaco New Employee Training Program?! Those are mighty hefty words coming from someone who obviously failed Woodworking 101. Miserably. And prefers pink "pine"toons to the real kind. Yes, the watch DOES tell the story. Your love for Swatch watches and everything else 80s gives you away.

But enough about you.

Anywho. All the feel good funny aside, I have one question: Who the heck is 1000thappyhaunt? And why the heck is she baking Superbowl cakes instead of fruitcakes?

Doesn't she know she's Canadian?

LY/MI Melly.

 

[pongoperdigirl]

Zzub man, I gotta tell ya a funny little story that made me think of you and Mel.

At the beginning of December, I had to go home due to a family emergency.
Atlanta is my home (I don't live anywhere near there now, so I can share this info here)
When I had to return home after everything, I was in the Atlanta airport going to head up to my terminal. This was right after the SEC championships, which we all know LSU won. So here I am, in this tiny little car traveling to my terminal and this thing is PACKED full of purple and gold. AirTran had a bunch of flights headed back to Louisiana right when I was flying out.rpe


SO we arrive at the terminal, and we all walk out...I am following this sea of purple and gold, and we all head up the escalators. I don't know if you have been to the ATL airport (who hasn't!) but they are steep. And while we are going up, there is a small group of guys going down. They see all the LSU fans, and all i hear is a GIGANTIC ROLL TIDE!!!!!!
They screamed ROLL TIDE at the LSU fans a couple times, the LSU people got a little fired up, but all I could think about was you guys.

I was soooo DED!

This list offends me, HUGELY! How could you number it correctly?! Why not just post a horrible picture of a massive ogre wielding a large utensil?

That you don't like cake is a given. You're an idiot.

But we're glad to "see" you.

By the way, you've got some gravy on your shirt. Again.

Try breaking the pills in quarters. Obviously halves are still too much for you.

Or ARE they?!

 

[Sleeping*Beauty]

Cheers, Mel.

It's been so long since I've read this. And I'm so happy to read it know. You really know how to brighten up a trip report. No offense ZZUB.

 

[Liz]

Well I'm happy to see Zzub posting more! It sorta makes him seem more like the rest of us. Or us more like him. Which ever is least offensive!

 

[Yzma and Kronk]

Whew!!

Mel heard me!!!

Mission accomplished.

However, the rest of Mel's town wasn't pleased.

I may need a good lawyer.

Does anyone know one?

I had to dodge a few unidentified flyingInowknowtheyweresupposedtobe cakes while trailing a white van in the most unfortunate weather conditions.

But Score. Roll Tide. Whatever.

I'll be reporting her to the RCMP in the morning.

Because I'd bet she didn't bake anything for the Grey Cup.

When you're looking for your knife, it's right here in my chest. Ouch!

I'm glad to see Liz reading more it makes her seem more like us.

I may need a good lawyer. Does anyone know one?

Sadly, no. And neither do my clients. Just ask Samc.

 

[Frickles]

..which would have made you a shoo in (whatever THAT means) for the title of ZZUB's favorite screen name.

NOAshclan. Or is it Kimmie?

Who can keep track?

Just between you and me, I think he's trying to shamelessly boost his post count. And in my mind, that's a win-win situation. Because of all the funny. Just call ZZUB butter because he's on a roll. How was that, Frick?

Ash was the favorite screen name. Then she screwed up and I was the favorite. Ash said something funny and he dumped me. So now he has apparently moved on to DisMorgh.

Men.

And yes, we can call him butter because he's definitely on a roll. A whole wheat roll.

Liz ~ any comparison between ZZUB and the rest of us is offensive. (NOZZUB)

 

[UtahMama]

ZZUB- word on the street is there's a postin' hootenanny going on!

That was a humbling and beautifully written installment, ZZUB. LOoOoVED it!

Hi Haley!

 

[ZZUB]

NevadaDaddy:Good to see you again. I've been meaning to plow into your Trip Report but I keep getting distracted by Montana Disney Fan who posts updates like I eat Swiss Cake Rolls.

But I drank a Diet Pepsi with my lunch in your honor.

VERY funny! Come plow...it's very user friendly.

Buzz is quite distractive, I KNOW!

Good choice of lunch beverage, by the way.

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

What say tomorrow you drink some lye in MY honour?!


Or else...


I'll just kill you with my shoe.

Again.


Oh. It'll be a disposable pedicure sandal, btw.

Obviously it's gonna take a good long while.



Cheers, Mel happyhat.
