tjsanko - new member?

where the person (is that you?)does kinda punch like a girl...

Certainly not the way I was drilled for hours. But hey nobody wants to hear about that boring stuff.

Can't say I have gotten anything similar. But I'd rather read dozens like that than one more from Donkey@

James

Well... Well...

SO!!!

As someone already noted, it's gotta be your Office Space animated user icon. More to the point, I thought it was a hilarious message to send you, and wish I'd come up with it first. If I had that user icon, and tjsanko had sent it to me, I'd have had a good long laugh.

Take as the good, clean fun it seems meant to be.

I am a second degree black belt, but I thought a couple of times you slightly pulled your punches in comments, to avoid outright insult.

It was an attempt to suggest that with a straight wrist, and better form (ala Tae Kwon Do) you could have hit harder, but I did complement your enthusiasm...

I'll reserve final judgment until I've seen tjsanko around a bit more, but so far I like what I see.

I never knew you were with the AA. Guess that shows most of us don't read each other's "in-tween the lines bios spread over 10,000 messages" enough.

So a top of the Bisbee, Arizona morning from the 3/187th of the 101st Airborne Division.

AHEM!

And just WHAT is wrong with a boat?

Hmm?

(Wanna make something of this? put 'em up!.....put 'em uuuuuup!)

{need pirate smiley emoticon urgently}

:D

GG

My parents were married.

it is being at sea for month on end on a boat full of semen........... :O

sign me up!

sign me up!

:p :D

GG

Argh be nothing wrong with being on a boat with such a fine wenchy lass as yourself.

Argh be plenty wrong with being on a boat with a pack of sea-dogs smellin' their aromas in close quarters. Be enough to make a man wanna be the cap'ain's bilge boy!

[i]"It isn't the boat. It is being at sea for month on end on a boat full of semen"[/i]

You'd like being on a boat full of seamen and their semen, wouldn't you? Your boy-boy fantasies are becoming a pretty frequent thing. :^O

:D

I was NOT advocating being on that boat, and if you get beyond your gay fantasies you would have seen that! :O

https://www.techrepublic.com.com/5208-6230-0.html?forumID=8&threadID=189216&messageID=1946266

Read other response to you. Don't feel like posting it twice....... B-)

BFilmFan: Assuming you mean the Jumping Junkies of 82nd Airborne when you say "AA", I wasn't ever actually in the 82nd Airborne Division, though I was for a little while in a unit that was "associated" with 82nd. I was with 75th Regiment, then with SETAF in Italy (the QRF known locally as the ABCT, to be exact, under two different battalion banners).

tjsanko: I got a special dispensation because my parents were divorced, otherwise they wouldn't have let me in either. Of course, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get my head inside the jar, so the Marines wouldn't take me.

In the Marines . . .
officer: "Go take that hill, give your life for your country!"

In the Air Force . . .
enlisted man: "Here's your bomb, sir. If you come back alive, we'll give you another."

Do you know why the Navy uses Marines for guard duty, and the Air Force uses German shepherds? The Air Force got first pick. Plus, y'know, on a carrier deck sheep would just be too obvious.

In the Marines . . .
officer: "Go out there and die for your country!"

In the Army . . .
officer: "Go out there and make the enemy die for his country!"

You're like a mirror. Whatever I prove about you, you reply by making up that same thing about me. :^O Let's have some imagination here. It's like an 8-yr old's reply when his 8-yr old pal calls him a doo-doo-head: "I'm not a doo-doo-head. You're a doo-doo-head. And you're a bigger doo-doo-head than I am!" LOL
https://www.techrepublic.com.com/5208-6230-0.html?forumID=8&threadID=189216&messageID=1946287

haha ...too much fun on TR today.. :D

but what am I? :^O

Me the one to immitate? Go back and look at your last title.... ;\

And you didn't even get that I was refering to you as the little white rapper wannabe from the 80's by that name! :D

Now go away, you have p3n!s breath...... :O

(I don't care who you are, THATS funny stuff!) :^O

Oh yeah, your a doo-doo-head!

That should have been Markie Mark, not Marky Mark. I forgot that your spelling is horrendous. Otherwise I would have remembered him. :D Or maybe I thought you used to have a strange fascination on ol' Markie Mark. :^O Now THAT is funny stuff!

Didn't Markie change his last name from Mark to Waldo or something?

P.S. I'm not a doo-doo-head. You're a doo-doo-head. And you're a bigger doo-doo-head than most doo-doo-heads. :D

would have known that was the "correct" way to spell his name! :D

I think your right, because he is pretending to be a movie star now. "Rock Star" and "Perfect Storm" are two that I have seen him in.

doodie head! ;\

You don't have to feel bad or hide your "alternative lifestyle" anymore. You are among friends that won't judge you based on whether you can sit down after you've been on a hot date or not! :^O Find yourself a nice gentleman caller that is nice enough to push in your stool? :O

I only knew how to spell Markie Mark's name because his name is Mark. At least his last name WAS Mark. And my name, M_a_r_k, is close to that. Damn, my name is hard to type. Freakin' underscores. If Markie Mark had a name like...oh, I don't know...JDie JD or Clydie Clyde, for example, then I wouldn't have the foggiest idea how to spell it. I did see [i]Perfect Storm[/i]. Good movie. Not a perfect movie. Only the storm was perfect. I grew up thinking that nothing is perfect. Not even a perfect stranger. At the time I saw the movie, I wasn't sure if Markie Wahlberg was in fact the white rapper Markie Mark. How in the world does anyone make the transformation from white rapper into world-renowned actor? ?:|

Well hell, I was hoping to drop this whole thing but...I see you're still telling me about your....uh...how shall I put this nicely...your gaiety. You bring that up alot. (At least you're "happy"! ;)) To each his own. As you said, you are among friends that won't judge you based on your lifestyle. haha

By the way, if I was a mean guy, I'd tell you that you're no longer a doo-doo-head. I'd tell you that you're now a poo-poo-head because you said that you push in guys' stool. hahaha Sorry, you mentioned that subject first and it was worth following up on. But I won't say that because I really I am a nice chap and a nice chap like me wouldn't say something like that. Hey, it could have been worse. I could have said sh!thead! :O

P.S. We can call a truce whenever you want. This is getting bad. :|

Actually, it's Mark Wahlberg, and he may be no Gary Oldman, but he's still a better actor than Ben Affleck ever was. Back in the day, he went by the name "Marky Mark" (jdclyde had it right), and recorded under the name "Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch". His brother was in some boy band or other, but I don't remember which.

Maybe I'm a loser. If being stuck in the '80s makes me a loser, so be it.

but I am used to it! :D

HA! I WAAAASSS RIIGGGHHTTTTT! YYOUUUUU WWWEERRRREEE WRRROOONNNNGGGG! :^O

Thanks apotheon for you usual knack of setting everyone straight (accept for MARK, we just correct him..... :O )

You think it was a stretch for him to be in Perfect Storm? In Rock Star, hi is a long hair metal head in a story inspired by Judas Priest when they found out Halford was one of "your people"! :p Actually a good show.

Ok, I got that out of my system!

Truce sounds good. It wasn't easy regressing to a peewee hermanish style of posting and I was running out of material (poopiehead!).

Now that I am right, you are a poopiehead (oh, I mean WRONG. yeah, thats what I MEANT!) I think it is safe to call the truce. (provided YOU stop FIRST!!!! B-) )

Hey, I said I was right, not mature! :p

it is spelled Marky. Damn... Google led me astray. Both spellings return several hundred thousand hits. I should have relied on my old standby Wikipedia in the first place. He doesn't have much imagination if that's the best rapper-guy name he could come up with it. I wonder what he'd have done if his first name was Rudy. Call himself Rude Rudy? ?:| Or how about Bartholomew? Bartholomewie Bartholomew? Hmmm...

Truce accepted. I hate mudslinging. I could go on forever but it's a waste of my creative talents. Unless I'm mud wrestling with a gorgeous woman. :p

edited version of last paragraph:
Truce accepted. I hate mudslinging. I could go on [u]slinging mud[/u] forever. [u]But mudslinging is a waste of my creative talents. Unless[/u] I'm mud wrestling with a gorgeous woman. :p

Semen to do-do heads to poopie heads ... Any specific reason you guys want to stink from head to foot?? eeyoooo

Now that you have agreed to a truce ..... Could we stop this please? I am walking with my nostrils held together with a safety pin ... and believe me, it HURTS !!!

]:)

We got carried away. I hope we weren't too revolting. Guys will be guys.

I did quite like the Do-Do head bit ... :p

]:)

"Unless I'm mud wrestling with a gorgeous woman." :O

Now THAT is as funny as anything I could have said! :D

Because I surely didn't mistype. You should have read it as "Mudslinging is a waste of my creative talents unless I'm mud wrestling with a gorgeous woman". :D

See edited version. Thanks for pointing out the potentially confusing sentence. I want to make sure all the mud-wrestling babes here on TR know that I'm available for a wrestling match any time. :p

I'm beginning to worry about you boys...

you keep a water hose available at hand and your garden all dug up ??

And here I was thinking that pushing me in was an accident :D

]:)

Its not over-scatowhatevers ... Its just plain Gross :D

]:)

...these types of tangents, it's because they all only end up in the toilet.

(No, I didn't really, did I?)

What was that word? It looks something like "over-scantily dressed logical babes". :D

we're allowed to contribute occasionally in and demonstrate our innate superiority. Quite raises the tone, don't you know...

:D

Damn... you figured out the truth. :8} It was no accident. ]:)

That's what it is.

:p

But it sure was fun

I still have the mud splattered swimsuit buried somewhere in my back garden ;)

]:)

you can find your swimsuit. I can't find mine. Where'd you put it? Is it buried alonside yours? ]:)

Mine is alone ... :(

Tee Hee ... .... Dont you remember what happened to your swimsuit when Flipper jumped in?

]:)

Do you? Things were happening pretty fast. I kinda lost track of things. Besides, you know I have a bad memory.

I think we hijacked this thread and turned it way around! It was heading due south. Now it's heading...well, I don't know where it's heading but it sure as hell isn't south! ;)

:D ... You dont want me to go into teensy weensy details on a public forum do you?? Aaahhh Well ... You asked for it ...

When Flipper jumped in .. You were rolling in the mud and I was trying to hose you down (;)). Thinking that it was a great game ... Flipper jumped in and kept trying to nip your hair ... but at the last moment you turned around and he ended up nipping your ...... :D

]:)

P.S I was still hosing you down :D

I've read through these posts and all I can say is, Mark and JD, y'all seem to get caught up in a lot of 'alternate lifestyle' conversations.. I think you two should lock yourselves in a dark room and, well, you know..

Oh..and Mark Walburg's older brother was in New Kids On The Block..

no, no, Mae! I think you have an overactive imagination. Are you one of those people who watched and liked [i]The Legend of Broken Back Mountain[/i]. :^O And it's all tjsanko's fault for helping to confuse you about what jd and I were talking about. he's the one who started this discussion.

You're right. I shouldn't have asked in a public forum. Oops! Sometimes I ask for more than even I can handle. :p

Now I know why you were hosing me off so vigorously. Things were probably getting pretty "hot" beore Flipper jumped in and fouled things up. You know how I hate to have a good time interrupted. ;)

Oh, and Flipper is female. You're not earning many brownie points with them. :x At least you got her name right this time.

Flipper will forgive me, I am sure ... I have a certain scary picture that might turn her against you, if you are not careful :p

]:)

P.S .. Off Home. Finally.

He STARTED it! I was sitting here, minding my own business, and out of the blue MARKie start going on about his date last night!

I TRIED to tell him that I really wasn't interested as I like GIRLS! He just wouldn't listen, and so I SIMPLE tried to REASURE him that it is alright and we at TR would not judge him based on his preference in mating rituals! :D

I think he just has repressed feelings from his days as an alter boy. Flashbacks some call it, reminiscing others would say! :O

It seemed from there that he simply MISUNDERSTOOD my tolerance of his personal choices as an opening for him to add me to his love corral! Nothing could be further from the truth!

I am sure that you can now see how this quickly all got out of hand (even though he was hoping to get SOMETHING in his hand.....). I tried to set him "straight", but his wrist had already become limp..... ;\

Mark..I have not seen Brokeback Mountain yet, but I would like to. I'm secure enough in my own sexuality to handle the subject matter. :)

And both of you..haven't you heard that if you protest too much, it's a sign that you are really covering up??

Personally, I think you make a FABULOUS couple.

Note: I have a theory, the only people that ever use the word 'fabulous' are gay men or fashion designers..

I was going to quit this silliness (and I thought we called a truce) but you keep on bringing up homosexuality again and again and again, jd. Sure a divorce can throw your sex life into havoc, but snooping around TR looking for men is a bit much, don't you think? Notice I mentioned nothing about alternative lifestyles in my reply back to Mae. I was hoping this was over and done with. But here goes...

I went on about a date I had last night? Pure fabrication your part. Show me the link to back up your claims.

On the other hand, what follows is truth that can be corroborated by statements you made in this thread. You said you liked seamen and their semen. Then you tell us that you had an obsession with Marky Mark. And then you remind us that he was in the movie [i]Perfect Storm[/i]. Gosh what a coincidence that he played a seaman in that movie. AND you remind us that he was in a movie named [i][u]Rock[/u] Star[/i]. You're once again alluding to the fact that you get your [u]rocks[/u] off with boys. AND it keeps going (just like you do about homosexuality). This actor-love boy of yours was also in a movie named [i]Italian Job[/i]. I think everyone knows what kind of jobs you gay boys pull on each other.

If you want to keep talking about alternative lifestyles, that's fine. Whatever floats your boat. And you've made it clear that seamen float your boat. hah! But if you do keep talking about it, please don't include references to me. Thanks for your understanding. :^O

[i]"Personally, I think you make a FABULOUS couple. I have a theory, the only people that ever use the word 'fabulous' are gay men or fashion designers"[/i]

So which one are you, Mae? ;)

And you're right. jd DOES protest a helluva lot, doesn't he? hahaha :^O

Obviously, the exception to the rule, is that you can use it in reference to a gay man or couple.

Me still at it? oh not, not me! I didn't make a SINGLE mention of your choices TO YOU! :D

I think it is just Mae trying to stir the pot after seeing the truce! evil, eeeeeeevvvillllllll! ;\

I just wanted to be sure in case I ever wanted to used the word "fabulous". I don't think I will. The English language has many other fabulously colorful words that I can use. Or if I do hear someone else say it, I want to know if I need to run like hell. :^O

and I, along with the rest of the world, wisely watched you jump right in and drown in her stew. B-) If you were a fish, you'd have taken the fisherman's bait and been caught right after you hatched from your egg. Hmmm...fisherman...another reference to seamen? haha Oh damn, how do I come up with these things?? Sorry... I'll stop... I'm trying to live up to my part of the truce. :D

is that a euphamism that your kind uses? What exactly does that mean? I mean, I've heard salad tossing and shrimping and so on, but I've never heard 'stirring the pot'. It sounds painful. You guys might want to work up to that one.

And youknow what? I might start hitting like a girl, too, had I just punched the crap out of the belly of a printer. That would really hurt!

That's what I remember from the first time I saw that scene - thinking aloud (along with all my buddy geeks watching) how painful it would be to actually carry out the violence as depicted!

I almost caught your humor. or your 49.999% wit.

If AA had 10 points more in IQ they could be Airplane drivers...

But they would be intelligent enough to be officers in the NAVY... ONI -- Proving the difference between intelligence officers and intelligent officers every day

Marine officers not only know how to shoot, but we even get taught how to dance.

Old Story---

A Huey is put on the Military IQ test. An Air force Lieutenant identifies it as "Chopper", The Marine as a Helicopter, and the Navy Ensign as a "Helo", but the Airborne Lieutenant calls it a and he points to the sky...

Mae, you've never heard of the term "stir the pot"? What in the world? I'm astounded that yhou haven't heard of this. Totally baffled. Awed with wonderment. I thought you southern folk know all the euphemisms. It means "to mix things up" or "create a ruckus". Search google for "stir the pot" and you'll see a few references. Unfortunately, my favorite online resource, wikikpedia, hasn't heard of it either. Neither has dictionary.com. Sheesh... do I need to explain everything? ;)

And what do you mean by "his kind"? Ya know, it's not politically correct to categorize people. Er...did I categorize you as "southern folk"? Sorry about the categorization. Ooops, you hate apologies, don't you? Damn! :D

This might break the record for the longest, most insignificant tangent thread.

47 meaningless messages and counting.....

Longest thread? Perhaps. Most insignificant. No! :) I think half the posts in this thread are mine. Reminds me of the "Please Disregard" discussion.

Or, God forbid, mine?

Except for this one, of course...

...is right here. Yes, mine too. (And especially that lame attempt at humor.)

I don't mean 100 posts in this thread. I mean let's get 100 different people to post to this thread. :D

Neil, the most meaningful thing you ever posted was in this thread. That would be your post about the overly scantily dressed logical babes. :p

Come down off your pedestal and stand with the rest of us, you know you want to..

Friendly advice, DON'T stand too close to JD or Mark.

Stand where you can see them!

That's good advice. And if a public shower is suggested, keep your back against the wall. And I can't help myself. Keep a firm grip on the soap.

that Neil got a good post in! :D

You're doing a good of trying to sling mud around. I'm not biting though. I think you really joined this thread because you accepted my call to all the TR mud-wrestling babes. :D
https://www.techrepublic.com.com/5208-6230-0.html?forumID=8&threadID=189237&messageID=1947029

]:)

I knew she was up to something.

I wonder if she blushed at all to be classified as a "gorgeous woman"?

Maybe THAT is why she tried to distract? ;\

Into the mud with you woman! ]:)

.
I like to alternate between a pedestal and the gutter -- keeps people guessing, you know.

I AM gorgeous.

And I wouldn't mud wrestle. I find a blow torch is much quicker and effective. I won't get dirty and I won't break a nail.

.
To avoid one of those brokeback moments, of course.

At least not in a mudwrestling tournament. Blow torches will dry out the mud.

So Mae, you're here not because I called for all TR mudwrestling babes but instead because I called for the TR gorgeous women? That's fine. I'll need a gorgeous bikini-clad woman to carry around that sign that tells the eager audience what round it is. :D

don't usually see so many people gather for non-events like this.

Does that mean everyone else is as bored as I am? Setting up a laptop for a new user, and TR is the only thing keeping me awake right now.
(didn't get more than 2 1/2 hours sleep last night)

I know how I will be spending my lunch time! close the door, and head on the desk for me!

And MAE, it is alright to blush about things, even if they are true. Kind of like a false modesty? :D

Hey Neil, what is the count up to now? Oh wait, that was MAX that was keeping count for us.

Well, back to the cool toys discussion!
