Putting Descartes Before De Horse

disbelief11I ramble, therefore I am.
Ever wonder how many rough drafts Rene Descartes may have written when he was formulating his famous philosophical worldview and its tag-line, "cogito, ergo sum"?
Yeah, sometimes I do, and I come up with goofy things like my first sentence.
But just because I start this entry by referencing a great philosopher doesn't mean that it will be an intelligent, measured piece of any kind of importance.
Nope, not gonna happen. Today's entry is just a bunch of goofy things that have popped into my brain the last few days. I'm going to roll with it here - my brain can be wicked and cruel when it's ignored. Hell hath no fury like a brain scorned.

valkyerie was in Chicago last week, so I had the good fortune to meet her in person. She joined us (mei_x, taraljc, xica_s and myself) for dinner at The Cheesecake Factory. We pretty much closed the place as we traded funny stories and fannish talk. valkyerie definitely won the "most stupid burglar" story award. Come back and see us again some time, Valkyerie!
A weird behavioral tic I've noticed: whenever I buy more than one banana, I never end up eating the last one. Doesn't matter if I buy 2, 3, 4, 6 or 8 bananas - that poor last one is always sacrificed. Sometimes it's reincarnated in banana bread, sometimes not. There's no good reason why I don't eat that banana.
A funny thing I saw on Crank Yankers: a sign on the wall in a park ranger's office that reads, "Give a hoot. Don't have anonymous gay sex in the park."
The other dayanathema666 wrote a Bossy-Moo fic and ever since then, I've been totally squicked. No, not by the thought of Bo and Bessie; rather, by the thought of what will happen to Bessie after Bo uses his shotgun (and I mean "shotgun" literally, not figuratively). Thoughts of Bessie being sold to the butcher - as organic beef, to boot! - are quite sickening. As is the thought of the Kents eating Bessie themselves. After all, does Martha know about the extra hormones and proteins that Bo has been "giving" to Bessie? Plus, there's the squick factor of what this story adds to the "hot beef injection" ejaculation euphemism - which is one that's always grossed me out, and now...*shudder*. Ana, your fic is proving to be truly memorable.
thamiris, I'm feeling the need to give you a lot of love right now. You are amazing and wonderful, as well as beautiful! Thank you for everything you've given me. Hugs and Smooches!
I've rambled, therefore this entry is done.

Date: 2003-04-21 05:11 pm (UTC)Though I'm not sure my professors would be happy that my philosophy major has yielded a somewhat funny LJ subject line, a mish-mosh of assorted philosophical views (with embarrassingly little memory of which philosopher said what), and an ingrained dislike of Hegel.
Ah well.
Eventually I'll take my Florida film to be developed. Can't wait to see your smiling (or snarky, that would be good too) face in the pics!

Oooh, very punny, Dis. :D
Ana, your fic is proving to be truly memorable.
In the gross way! Whoo-hoo! Thanks! You're awesome to say so.
There's no good reason why I don't eat that banana.
You are not alone, babe. I think this is actual mental illness - solobananaphobia.

Date: 2003-04-21 11:43 pm (UTC)I'm glad my squickitude is making you happy. Your Bossy-Moo is certainly staying with me much longer than many, many other fics have. I may never look at beef the same way again.

Hee, I just had an image of Hans Solo eating a banana. Which then morphed into a wacky Muppet Show skit. Can't you just see it? Hans would discover his bananaphobia when all the enormous fruits and veggies came after him. Henceforth to be known as Solo-bananaphobia.

And Wanda screaming, "My sticky ass is your destiny!"
Hahahahaha!

I do love the residents of Yankerville.
