Underpants!

resteses090131

This is special for Uncle B, who was just twitting me for not having a weekend weasel up. And also for daring to dis his underpants. Two birds, one stone.

Hey, I heard a rumor there was a sports contest of some variety going on in the States today…

The luge finals are this weekend, yes.

So, Uncle B is a “briefs” guy, eh?

I’m just waiting for this “sports contest” to be over with so I never have to see this year’s crop of Superbowl-themed ads (or “adverts” as you say Over There) again. Especially the one where the family — mom, then small son, then dad (I think; I usually have hit the mute button by then) — starts singing Queen’s “We Will Rock You.” It must die. Die. Die. Die.

Ick! My deepest sympathies, Andrea!
No signal here, mercifully (Netflix is our new best friend!), so the only ads we’ll see are the half-time ones when they show up on the innertoobs — strictly in the interest of cultural literacy, of course.

(tap, tap…is this thing on?) There was a sort of football contest today, yes. Oh, and by the way, not sure if I mentioned that I am from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Pittsburgh Steelers 27…Arizona Cardinals 23…and thus ends Superb Owl 43.

woohoo!!!

🙂

p.s. Oh, and Andrea?

We will
We will
ROCK YOU

I’m from Pittsburgh (area) too. Yippee!

And some of the commercials were good.

“Is England buried in snow yet???”

I would say ‘Yes’ (at least, my corner of the world this morning), but I have to remember that 8, 9 inches of snow is a normal winter day for some people. Not the utter catastrophe that the media would have you believe it is for Kent and Essex!

Not that I’m going in to work today… 🙂

Snow? Oh, yes, we have snow, too.

I’m disappointed, though. Stoaty hasn’t changed colour yet 🙁

You could ask her if she’s putting on that extra weight to sleep through the winter. I’m thinking you would see your colour change then.

Are you kidding? The commercials are the only things about the Superbowl worth watching!

I remember when I was growing up, about two weeks after every Superbowl, there’d be this show called “Best Commercials of 199X” showcasing the Top-100 advertisements of the past year. About half of the Top 50, and ALWAYS the majority of the Top 10 and nearly always the Number 1, were Superbowl Commericals.

I didn’t see this “We will rock you” commercial, but I was quite amused by the ones I did manage to see, for the 15 minutes I was watching. I slept through the 1st and most of the 2nd quarter, then left the house and wasn’t home until after. 😛

Heh. Go ahead, ask, we dare you.

You’re not daring ME are you? I would NEVER do such a thing! I idolize our Gentle Weasel,

I prefer tighty whities myself. Low maintainance, cheap, and not pretentious. Not like I’m going to be showing them off to anyone anyway.

If it was Uncle Badger, may I just ask that he call “Fire in the hole!”, first? It might reduce collateral damage.

No machinist, I was daring Uncle B. I doubt he would though as he seems to know what is good for him as it concerns female weasels.

Thank you, and I agree. Of course one would expect there to be a certain rapport. I will say though that I was a bit surprised to see Uncle Badger assert that he wears other peoples underwear (“Those were not my underpants”) and does so outside the privacy of his bedroom (“That wasn’t my bedroom.”). Gentle Weasel is more open minded than I expected, or kinkier. NTTATWWT. I guess I’m just old fashioned, or just old.

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
