There, sweetie, I made a thread just for you. [Kiss]

Posted by skrika03 (Member # 5930) on :

Now which one is the dobie? [Confused]

Just kidding, I thought the other thread was about m_p_h.

Wow, your own thread? You have an awesome wife. [Smile]

Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :

You don't even know, advice. [Big Grin]

Thanks. But now that I've got a thread, what do I do with it? I think I'll bury it. It's either that or hide it under a bushel.

for porter and berverly: two of the coolest recent additions to hatrack.

I love the way you have both jumped in and assimilated. It took much longer for me.

*holds up picket sign that says "I <3 dobies and all other forms of fluff"*

*walks around in a circle and shouts "preserve our fluff" in an annoying chanty rhythm*

Try setting it on a hilltop. I've heard that works.

Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :

What a strange idea. I just might have to do that.

And how could I do that? Like this:

*bump*

Thanks, Peter, you made my day. [Blushing]

I still feel like a newbie, and probably always will at times.

Narnia, thanks for the support. I thought it was a pretty worthy cause for a Dobie.

While fluff normally doesn't do anything for me, I'll make an exception for this one. [Blushing]

I thought I'd post in here, rather than hijack the Terminal thread, that both Stanley Tucci and Patrick Warburton are in "Big Trouble." I also didn't want people to think I was totally obsessed since I added it to my litmus test movies and recommended it to Celia.

Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :

Yeah, I saw that movie for exactly those two reasons. Thanks for the heads up, though. [Smile]

Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :

Ah, see I was right to bring up your private thread then. [Cool]

Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :

pooka -- what do you mean by "litmus test movies"? If people like the movie, then they are cool? What other movies do you put in that category?

Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :

*bump because the dobie hordes attacked the first page before pooka could answer my question*

Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :

Oh, this was discussed a lot on the litmus test movie thread. I don't consider it a measure of whether someone is righteous or evil, just whether I would be able to survive a nationwide car trip with them. As mentioned in the litmus test movie thread, my husband doesn't even like a lot of the movies I do. So, I guess that could mean it's not even a litmus test for whether I will sleep with someone. [Eek!]

I think it was on another thread about litmus tests that litmus test has come to be applied to something that is only a yes or know, when in reality litmus tests measure many degrees + or - and also relative neutrality. Then there are the pool strips that register chlorine strength and water hardness as well.

Thanks. Those threads were before my time.
