Alex and orange, first I have three demands.

1. Jam

2. Jam

3. World domination.


(In case 3 is not available, Jam will be an acceptable substitute.)

Alinestra is just demonstrating a point... Women rule. Poor Orange... Poor Alexnm... The guys never had a chance!

Just kidding, Alinestra. I'm really showing my respect to a superior gender.

Dammit and I thought I was demonstrating that women have a sense of humor as well as a dry but spiky personality with a propensity for intelligent repartee drawing on literary and philosophical leitmotifs for the delectation of those present.

(I have a degree in English Literature. Haunts me still.)

And that grape or strawberry quote reminds me of a (allegedly true, though I have my doubts) story where a woman complained of itching in her netherlands after she used a contraceptive cap. The doctor asked her what type of spermicidal jelly she'd used and she responded "grape".

I was impressed. It's extremely rare to see counter-jokes from females when it comes to such a pathetic form of humour.

Now that Ali is posting at OT, I must vote her in the HoF. :/

...somehow, I have a feeling that this thread is slightly off-topic, even considering the name of this forum...

Yep, and you've made your point. Sense of humor as well your personality and your intelligent comments... Oh, and those pics in the picture thread (talking about leitmotifs!)... The corollary: Women rule. Q.E.D...
Keep posting. The boys are a little... rude, sometimes, but they're all good kids.

Unless you are joking about raping somebody (hardly a laughing matter), I believe the phrase you were trying to use was "rapier wit."

thank you Mr. Dictionary

But I assure you I've heard "rapist wit" before, as well as "rapier wit". You haven't?

"Rapist wit" is a humorous malapropism of the term "rapier wit." It isn't a real phrase, just a joke.

Ahhh. Found it. The term "rapist wit" originated with the movie "Dumb and Dumber." Which explains it all.

"Obiwan looks like Alec Guiness."

All I shall say to such a statement is this:

Avatars are often not the image of ourselves as we are, but the image in which we want to present.

Read into that what you will.
