"I mean, the fucking thing has jalapeños on it, bro," Cook added. "Jalapeños."

struck out? did you shoot yourself down and go home with someone else?

Somehow word got out to the left hand, and there was a fite.

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:13 (seventeen years ago) link

It's time to buy yourself some flowers, man.

I've never actually seen Dane Cook. Where do people see him?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:15 (seventeen years ago) link

sometimes i see him in my nightmares, and i wake up screaming.

leaning against the mens room door on interstate rest stops, usually.

This is the longest day ever.

So I have onion powder and garlic powder -- indispensible!
I have cheese powder and mushroom powder for when the situation calls for those.
I even have wasabi powder.

WHERE IS MY BACON POWDER. I want someone to invent powdered bacon so I can add it to all kinds of things.

I know there's a nuILX but I can't say goodbye just yet.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:54 (seventeen years ago) link

bacon bits + two sheets of wax paper + rolling pin = bacon powder.

So... Remember upthread Jenny asked what Amanda said that made her LOL? I think it was probably this, or at least it had that effect on me:

Ah yes. Bubble. I dunno. I thought it was pretty good.

-- Armando Grouse (showdow...), February 20th, 2007. (later)

It's been confirmed: Armando DOES NOT KNOW.

I'm eating popcorn. Why does it make me oh so very happy?

― Calico (calico), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:58 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost yeah i thought that was great, too.

― lavender mofo (kenan), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 21:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Hehe. I did think Bubble was pretty good.

I want my bacon powder to be stable so it doesn't rot in the cupboard. And not just ground to bits, but POWDERED, so I can sprinkle it on/in things. If someone can powder mushrooms, why can't someone manage to powder meat?

Oooh, you think it tastes good? I'll look for that at Golden Pacific.

Damn, I could go for a snickers bar right about now. I very rarely want a snickers.

Ooh.. I like that little story.

― Calico (calico), Wednesday, 21 February 2007 22:19 (seventeen years ago) link

That is awesome.

Stop posting here! ADAPT OR DIE.

Speaking of which: Kevin, in case you don't see it, stet invited you to email him to sort things out.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 22 February 2007 02:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I am excited to hear about trivia. Please post details. Was Prof. Hummingbird there? Did Nora show her boobs? Did Sarah take a lot of flash photos?

Trivia was fun. We won one round ($20). Nick and Sarah had already left, so we rock-paper-scissored to see who won it. Dan's friend (what was her name dammit) won, but then gave it to Katie. Our team was named "Honey With Colts." The best team name was "What's That On Your Forehead?" They won the whole thing.

Everyone agreed that Jeff is essential to our future success since we SUCKED at sports trivia.

I am going to keep posting here until Kevin can be a part of ILX2 life. Solidarity.

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Thursday, 22 February 2007 04:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Contrasting that with my post on nuILX is kind of scary.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 22 February 2007 05:41 (seventeen years ago) link

why does that piece of shit ILX over there keep LOGGING ME OUT???????

― Little kernel of salty honey (crunkleJ), Thursday, 22 February 2007 06:23 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't want to keep switching. I like this model.

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 22 February 2007 08:51 (seventeen years ago) link

In the past month, Dane Cook seems to have replaced Carrot Top as the punchline indicated "worst comedy ever".

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 22 February 2007 08:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Hey EZ -- Lavender Diamond is coming to the EB. Wanna go? I do. 5/27

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Thursday, 22 February 2007 13:19 (seventeen years ago) link

How did we win a round? I thought we established that other team in the same room as us beat us in every round? Was it that one round where they accidentally gave us two more points than we should have gotten?

Anyways, I had fun despite the somewhat stressful set-up. I don't feel like I did that well myself but Dan is a monster on the geography questions. I would have preferred more question variety, as opposed to 5 straight questions about volcanos or 4 straight questions about insects and how they smell.

― n/a (n/a), Thursday, 22 February 2007 13:31 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm not sure how we won the last round, but they said we did. Maybe it was the bonus questions.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 22 February 2007 13:52 (seventeen years ago) link

What were some of the sports questions?

― Jeff... (Jeff...), Thursday, 22 February 2007 14:05 (seventeen years ago) link

What was the location of the 2007 NBA Allstar game? (we got it wrong)
" " " " " " " Super Bowl? (that one we got right)
Who is the newly-signed coach of the Dallas Cowboys? (also wrong)

Um, there was a baseball question in there, I'm pretty sure John knew it. There were two NASCAR questions back-to-back to start off the game, I knew the first (first race of the year, Daytona 500) but the second was a wash (who was last year's champ). There may have been one or two other sports questions but those stand out in my memory.

Damn, you should have come out!

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 22 February 2007 14:41 (seventeen years ago) link

had i remembered at the end of the day i might have. for the first time since before xmas i am going to make it between paychecks without being broke and/or overdrawn 4 days prior to the next check.

Cal Ripken Jr. (who, in 1995, broke Lou Gehrig's record for consecutive games played?)

i haven't even opened the envelope.

― chicago kevin says it was nice knowing you all (chicago kevin), Thursday, 22 February 2007 14:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Ooh, sheer good sense, then?! Congratulations. And open the damn envelope.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 22 February 2007 14:56 (seventeen years ago) link

I actually knew that baseball one too. Which, as I mentioned, was part of the problem: John and I overlap too much in our knowledge.

― n/a (n/a), Thursday, 22 February 2007 15:09 (seventeen years ago) link

so have we all decided to stay in the sandbox for now? i'd hate to have to try to divide my attention between 2 chicago threads, or 2 boards, or 2 anything
