??!! A Confusing Comment
Posted by Lindy West on Tue, May 19, 2009 at 9:08 AM
Commenter "Tricyclic" is always calling me a retard. Fine, whatever. But now this:
Lindy, did your folks have any kids that lived?Posted by Tricyclic on May 18, 2009 at 9:33 PM
Are you calling me a ghost?

Apparently he's right - it was pretty retarded to post this. What part of "don't feed the trolls" is so hard to understand?

I will be your Demi Moore anytime, Lindy. Just know that the feeling of wet clay really really creeps me out.

I think what he's trying to say is...he likes the smell of napalm in the morning.

@2: I just want to know what I'm being accused of here. And I like ghost jokes.
@8: Much obliged!

Sounds like a 1960's comedian doing a roast at the Friars' Club. Personally, I would have told you to jump on a bicycle with no seat. Hoo-wah! Can I get a light for this cigar?

Yes, it's a quote from Stand By Me. Teddy asks Vern if his mother ever had any kids that lived. It's in reference to the fact that Vern is too chicken shit to do anything adventurous in his life. To use another quote..."Get busy livin', or get busy dyin'" (Shawshank Redemption).
In other words, get out and LIVE your life instead of letting life pass you by. Not that I'm saying you don't. I don't know... I'm just explaining the comment.
@11, I'm unregistered.

As a comeback, you can just ask Tricyclic how tall he is and when he answers, tell him you didn't know they stacked shit that high.

My ex used this as an insult, too. I asked him what it meant and he couldn't tell me. 'It just sounds good,' he said.

I don't think Stand By Me wrote this joke. I think Eddie Cantor used to put on his special raccoon coat and yell it at the Ritz Brothers through his megaphone and the Ritz Brothers would mock him for telling old jokes.

It's a typo. Should be:
"Lindy, did your folks have any kids that jived?'
because your writing comes off sounding way too white. Might I suggest you throw in an occassional "hells yeah" or "snap"?

What w7ngman said. Heavens, why is anyone still reading unregistered posts, or posts by people who invariably annoy them? Slog isn't a homework assignment, you aren't required to read every word. I *heart* killfiles.
Oh, and I've always found that the single most meaningless insult of childhood. The easy answer is, "no." Then let them stew over how to turn that into something more insulting. "Well, that explains the...rotting flesh...and the...um...worms...and stuff."
Six-year-olds using mommy's computer to post on slog probably shouldn't get their own threads.
