Coffee Warlord · 08-22-2003, 04:30 PM

The fucker stood us up!

He's supposed to get in touch tomorrow now. What a putz.

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:35 PM

It's hard to be humble, when you're as great as I am.

Coffee Warlord · 08-22-2003, 04:35 PM

Please stand on a chair when you speak, Shorty. We can't see who's talking.

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:36 PM

When you come to the fight
Don't block the halls
And don't block the door
For y'all may go home
After round four

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:37 PM

Just for that, I will not vote for Gallagher for governor.

Shorty--Try putting telephone book on the chair. I still can't see you.

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:38 PM

It's 5:40 am and in about one minute I'm going to watch the sun come up. I don't know if I've ever done that. Anyway, we're going to try to pick things up, and start over. It won't be easy but we're all together again. And I feel good. I'm not sure if this paper is what you wanted, if I hit the social significance or whatever you're looking for. But, for what it's worth, thanks a lot.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:39 PM

What is that from?

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:39 PM

So I guess this is where I tell you what I learned. My conclusion, right? Well, my conclusion is: hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time. It's just not worth it. Derek says it's always good to end a paper with a quote. Says someone else has already said it best so if you can't top it, steal from them and go out strong. So I picked a guy I thought you'd like. "We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic cords of memory will swell when again touched, as they surely will be, by the better angels of our nature."

Gotcha.

You know you have to delete your posts in the other thread if this thing gets close.

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:41 PM

mine dont count again us do they? i thought only tribe members posts were counted.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:42 PM

No. It is the total number of posts in the thread.

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:43 PM

The details of my life are quite inconsequential. My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with lowgrade narcolepsy and penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15 year old french whore named Chloe with webbed feet. My father liked to womanize, he liked to drink, he would make outrageous claims - like that he invented the question mark. sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we would make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed and a burlap bag and beaten with reeds. Pretty standard, really.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:44 PM

Let's see how long it takes you to name the movie based only on quotes, shorty.

"Quinn is in. Let the fun begin."

Coffee Warlord · 08-22-2003, 04:47 PM

Only one human captain has ever survived battle with the Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else.

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:47 PM

no idea? but i'll continue to think and post my own

Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:48 PM

That is Billy Madison.

Second quote from the movie above:

"To be popular, you've got to get one of those and get one of those."

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:49 PM

hrm, still stumped but keep them coming. Does it involve highschool girls as the main characters?

No, I'm serious. This is a serious exercise. It's like an SAT question. Which one is going to get to the hundred dollar bill first? The male-friendly lesbian, the man-hating dyke, Santa Claus, or the Easter bunny?

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:50 PM

Is that Rat Race?

Next quote:

"Hey! It's the African Anteater Ritual!"

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:51 PM

Nope, but that is a good movie!!

I don't think I've ever seen the movie you're talking about digamma..

Another quote from the same:

"Check this shit. You got cracker farm boy Luke Skywalker, Nazi poster boy, blond hair, blue eyes. And then you got Darth Vader, the blackest brother in the galaxy, Nubian god!"

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:53 PM

Jay and Silent Bob?

Last one, and then I'll tell you:

"You shit on my house! You shit on my house!"

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:55 PM

Good guess- Chasing Amy

No idea about that man. Maybe I'll have to check it out?

Maybe my favorite movie (also my sig):

"First Guy: Well, as a matter of fact I won't because Wood drastically underestimates the impact of social...

Second Guy: Wood drastically... Wood drastically underestimates the impact of social distinctions predicated upon wealth, especially inherited wealth. You got that from Visas. "Work in Essex County", page 98, right? Yeah, I read that too. Were you going to plagiarize the whole thing for us? Do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? Or do you, is that you thing, you come into a bar, you read some obscure passage, and then pretend, you pawn it off as your own, as your own idea just to impress some girl and embarrass my friend?"

digamma · 08-22-2003, 04:59 PM

It is Can't Buy me Love.

Yours is Good Will Hunting.

korme · 08-22-2003, 04:59 PM

Alright. No. No no. Fuck you. You don't owe it to yourself. You owe it to me. 'Cause tomorrow I'm gonna wake up and I'll be fifty and I'll still be doing this shit. And that's all right, that's fine. I mean, you're sittin' on a winning lottery ticket and you're too much of a pussy to cash it in. And that's bullshit `cause I'd do anything to fuckin' have what you got! So would any of these fuckin' guys. It'd be an insult to us if you're still here in twenty years. Hanging around here is a fuckin' waste of your time.

John Galt · 08-22-2003, 05:00 PM

shorty is such a copycat.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 05:01 PM

welcome aboard John Galt.
Though I don't know how long you will be here.

i started it before you i believe

Goin to go get a quick shower but I'll be back:

Oh, I don't know that. Let me tell you what I do know. Every day I come by to pick you up. And we go out we have a few drinks, and a few laughs and it's great. But you know what the best part of my day is? It's for about ten seconds from when I pull up to the curb to when I get to your door. Because I think maybe I'll get up there and I'll knock on the door and you won't be there. No goodbye, no see you later, no nothin'. Just left. I don't know much, but I know that.

John Galt · 08-22-2003, 05:03 PM

i don't know - i haven't read this bad thread - but i started the princess bride quotes a while back.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 05:04 PM

John Galt. Does your firm have a minimum billables requirement?

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:05 PM

true. but i started some ali quotes after you stopped and i forgot you even did those -- was just lookin for things to post.

MY BOY'S WICKED SMA'T.

No - but I'm on pace for 2400 this year so I'm not worried.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 05:06 PM

Shorty--you still have to delete your posts in the other thread. I know that if you do that YOU WILL LOSE POSTS, but I think you have to do it for the Squid's sake.

John Galt--That's a lot. Today is not good for my productivity, but like you, I've put in my fair share lately.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 05:16 PM

Today is the end of our summer program, so you have all of these 2Ls bouncing around on their last day 3 hour lunches. Not the most productive work environment.

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:18 PM

DO YOU LIKE APPLES?

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:21 PM

WELL I GOT HER NUMBER! HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM APPLES?!

John Galt · 08-22-2003, 05:22 PM

I don't know if can continue - over 1/10th of my total posts at FOFC are in the other thread.

It never stops. I think our call backs start next week.
All the while the gears keep turning--spitting out the bling bling for partners on one end and associates' carcasses on the other.

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:23 PM

Sean: Do you have a soul mate?
Will: Define that.
Sean: Someone you can relate to, someone who opens things up for you.
Will: Sure, I got plenty.
Sean: Well, name them.
Will: Shakespeare, Nietzsche, Frost, O'Conner...
Sean: Well that's great. They're all dead.
Will: Not to me, they're not.
Sean: You can't have a lot of dialogue with them.
Will: Not without a heater and some serious smelling salts.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 05:25 PM

I'm going to see the Project Greenlight Movie tonight. Went to college with Jeff Balis.
It got ripped in the papers today.

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:26 PM

Skylar: What if I said I wouldn't have sex with you again till I got to meet your friends, what would you say?
Will: It's 4:30 [AM], they're probably still awake.

Blade6119 · 08-22-2003, 05:26 PM

should i help my team out that voted me off or the other team...hmmm..tough choce...bye

digamma · 08-22-2003, 05:27 PM

Hahvahd bahs are true roxx3rs.

is that how i spell it shorty?

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:29 PM

yes, whatever the hell you intended to spell.

Look, you're my best friend, so don't take this the wrong way. In twenty years, if you're still livin' here, comin' over to my house to watch the Patriots games, still workin' construction, I'll fuckin' kill you. That's not a threat. Now, that's a fact. I'll fuckin' kill you.

digamma · 08-22-2003, 05:30 PM

give the robin williams quote about missing fisk's homerun.

I'm leaving for a while. I'll try to get back on later tonight.

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:34 PM

Good quote, can't find it. Maybe if I look harder.

If you ever disrespect my wife again, I will end you. I will fucking end you. You got that, chief?

Time's up.

Bee · 08-22-2003, 05:37 PM

You guys are losing.

Bee · 08-22-2003, 05:37 PM

Bee · 08-22-2003, 05:38 PM

korme · 08-22-2003, 05:38 PM

i'm stranded unless you help!!

So this is a Harvard bar, huh? I thought there'd be equations and shit on the wall.
