This is how stupid I am...
I always thought it was really dumb for people to abbreviate "joke" by typing "j/k". Someone just kindly informed me it doesn't mean that. x(

I'm going to go put on my crash helmet now, lest I hurt myself. :D

2. Hahaha!
Better get a bib to wipe up the drool, too. :P

Believe me, I'm not one to talk at all. I'm sure Jason would love to share some of my "brighter" moments with you, but I'm not ratting myself out.

Another one of my stellar intellectual moments
(I'm sure Jason could appreciate this, too... :D)

I lived in Cincinnati for 10 years before I *got* the Bengals' theme song...which was "Welcome to the Jungle". The Bengals/tigers/jungle thing just did not occur to me AT ALL.

10. God fucking damn I hate hearing the first couple bars of that song
at football games!

Da da da da

Then freakin Hell's Bells starts up, but only lasts through the first bell hits, there's never any actual music, just more and more forced earworm implantation that would make Kahn proud :grr:

4. j/k means "Just Kidding" right?
Edited on Thu Dec-16-04 10:44 AM by brainshrub
I'm making sure.

Don't feel bad, many people think the word "Republican" is a compliment.

15. Just kidding is close to joke
Don't feel bad, it means close to the same thing. It's like saying "Just jokeing". Now if all this time you thought it stood for something like "Jumping Killers" or "johnnies kewl" then I could understand the confusion. :)
