This is what Kentucky Jelly is for!

From “The Meaning of Liff”:
Kentucky (adj): Fitting exactly and satisfyingly.

I didn’t make that up. It’s in the book!

No, we’re just hungry. Do you want these in crumbs, or batter?

That will depend on how they taste. If they taste yummy, they are a triumph of science and a boon to humankind. If they taste yukky, they are an affront to nature and the scientists responsible should be ashamed of themselves for misuse of molecular biology for such frivolous ends.

I put them on skewers to stop them curling up. Get that deep fryer hot, we are definitely frying. As soon as we finish doing the vampires, in go the crabcrows.

Look at the wonders genetic engineering has brought us. Or abominations. Depend on how you look at it.

Why do i want to speak close to your husband, is he holding a mike?

One thing I’ve learned in my 56 years is that the to-do list never ends, but life does. We have to take time out to smell the lolzes.

Well, why don’t you look on down and, uh, see me some time?

*holds the mike*

Just try to speak close to it. Otherwise the people in the back won’t hear you.

I’d like the cereal, hold the mike.

That’s funny.

My mom is young as you already know. But still she is a very innocent woman. She went out to the store and said she bought a massage oil like the one my brother’s girlfriend has. “Mom, that’s a lubricant”

We have a lady of rather mature years yet almost complete innocence on our staff here. Last year, we had a Christmas party with gag grab-bag gifts, and she got one with KY Jelly in it. She said, “Oh, it’s Kentucky Jelly,” and brought down the house! She looked baffled and said, “What’s Kentucky Jelly, and why is it so funny?” I literally fell out of my chair. We still kid her about it.

Or maybe some KY Yours and Mine. But they don’t come in handy, they come in a bottle and then you pour them on your hand or directly on your dry area.

By: JohnB

JohnB — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 20:14:07 +0000

Well, his name could be something like Amiche, “Mike” for short. (Your hubby could be Italian, who knows?) But if it’s dry, that’s another problem. Perhaps one of the fine Lube Sheep products might come in handy.

Well, the first thing you should be telling me is, why am I doing it with Mike when we all know my husband’s name starts with an A.

Not crabs, crows, nor ants are quite like you, nor partially decomposed human beings!

…I don’t expect very many people will get that.

As my friend Droll likes to say, we play hard here. I can be snarky, although I usually aim my sharpest barbs at the trolls. But I like to think that my warmth comes through at times, too. When I indicate enjoyment of a comment, or praise or defend someone, that is usually genuine. I genuinely like most of the people here, which is why I put some effort into trying to be funny, and some thought into trying to keep up with what everybody else is saying. I am “sneaky” in the sense that I am sometimes deliberately ambiguous. But one of my weaknesses is passive aggression, and so sometimes an insult sneaks into what I say without my intention. I really intended no slight at SS’s academic diligence; I was really saying I just didn’t know anything about that. I can see, though, how that could have been intended as a swipe, since he is on here a lot, and I could be implying he’s playing here instead of working. But I wouldn’t intentionally go there, since I would certainly be tarring myself with the same brush!

“I prefer it dry with Mike.” I’m sorry, I’ve come up with at least five funny comebacks to that sentence, but I can’t pare even one down to an R-rating…

Cereal on mike? That’s an interesting way to have secks!

Depends on whether or not you like salt.

That’s okay. I get cabs and crabs confused, too. You don’t know how much time I’ve wasted trying to climb aboard crabs…

Darn, I thought it said cow too….until I read that comment!

You’re a sneaky one, Mr. B….

I have never burned cereal. I guess I could if I wanted to. But I prefer it dry with Mike.

You were probably talking to someone else’s husband.

You’re a sneaky one, JohnB. Talk about damning with faint praise!

That’s confusing. Are you saying you’re not salted, or you’re salted inside?

But, I thought we were frying the crabcrows? Are we roasting them over a spit instead? Jeesh, make up your mind. I put all the oil in the deep fryer already.

By: hollyr57

hollyr57 — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 05:36:43 +0000

Or perhaps for grouchy people who are darn proud of it and want everyone to know. I have one of those for a neighbor – he’d love this dish.
