ohh look there's a squirrel....-- max_pants, Dec 02 2003 How's this for a tangent? http://www.ufotd.com/index.php?fresh=1 [silverstormer, Oct 04 2004] Did you know: There are up to 500 fleas on one hedgehog. They are special hedgehoq fleas called Archaeopsylla erinacei...-- silverstormer, Dec 02 2003 unless of course the villian was actually already loooking at a say...marmoset. Because we all know how marmosets can scurry about a bit like squirrels, but they don't collect nuts, some suck sap from trees, amazing little monkeys, another monkey i'd like to mention....-- max_pants, Dec 02 2003 ...Some lizards lick their eyes. This isn't an alternative to blinking as they do have perfectly functional eyelids however they just like the taste...-- Captain_Ignorant, Dec 02 2003 UnaBubba, worked then didn't it. HAHA I'm not wearing any pants-- max_pants, Dec 02 2003 I think [UB] was trying to say, before he got cut off, "Your fly's undone your shoelaces."-- silverstormer, Dec 02 2003 And his sidekick ADD Boy -- "Wanna go ride bikes?"-- Letsbuildafort, Dec 02 2003 I'm wearing blue socks today. They are machine knitted with an elasticised thread to ensure that they don't bunch up at my ankles. I like to catch the bus and sit in the third row from the front by the window on the right hand side. I try and read the newspaper over the shoulder of the person in front of me. The bus is on route number 376 which leads past my home...-- Captain_Ignorant, Dec 02 2003 Well alright, but what we'd like to know now is if your urine is blue...-- Tiger Lily, Dec 02 2003 Stay with the topic people. Now ADD boy what colour sock are you wearing?-- max_pants, Dec 02 2003 Why is it called wedding tackle? I've tried soaking it in fish guts but still haven't gotten so much as a nibble...-- Captain_Ignorant, Dec 02 2003 Damn you, [UnaBubba]. (You got in there between me hitting [annotate], and this page loading...)-- Detly, Dec 02 2003 Think of the worm, it slides through the dirt and the dirt slides through it...-- Captain_Ignorant, Dec 02 2003 I think we can all learn a lesson from that. Captain Aesop.-- lostdog, Dec 02 2003 You should get a croissant for this, but -- hey, look over there!-- Tabbyclaw, Dec 02 2003 The operation of ditraction is a little understood arithmetical process approximately halfway between division and subtraction.-- mystic2311, Dec 05 2003 Damn. I was right in the middle of an evil deed when I was ditracted by reading this post....
That's o.k. I've remembered what it was I was going to do - pick an idea at random and fishbone it even though it's only fault is a spelling mistake.
Ha! Your ditracting abilities failed you Tangent Man - now *I* shall rule the universe ha! ha! ha!-- dobtabulous, Dec 05 2003 Right. I proposed a Blame Indicator and was challenged on the No Magic Rule.
Max_Pants, the floor is yours. Explain the "super power" in scientific terms, please.-- Harry Mudd, Dec 05 2003 Captain_Ignorant's second anno seems to have confused Tangent Man with The Tremendous Bore, whose super power of interminable tedium causes evil villains to lose the will to live. <rabble rousing> Yeah, Harry Mudd! Good question. Come on max_pants, let's here your 'scientific' explanation. Bet you ain't got one really, have you? No, thought not. </rr>-- DrBob, Dec 05 2003 GW Bush: So anyway, I said screw the steelworkers... and then I said, hey, how 'bout we send a man to the moon?-- pluterday, Dec 05 2003 If I fixed the spellink mistake half of these posts would make no sense. I shall leave it as a testomony to how easy people are distracted and no scientific explanation is required.
rabble roused-- max_pants, Dec 07 2003 What happens when Tangent Man meets his arch-nemesis, Asymptote Man?-- mystic2311, Dec 08 2003 <bad math humor>I thought his nemesis would be 'Normal Man.' Just pray that they never cross eachother.-- RayfordSteele, Dec 09 2003 Oh look, there's that squirrel you mentioned!-- DesertFox, May 07 2004 random, halfbakery
