Fantastic word game

To borrow a term from The Beatles, Silkie, I sometimes have to go on a Magical Mystery Tour to understand some of your contributions as they don't always form coherent sentences and I often wonder if you even bother to read them before you post them because, if you did, you'd probably kick yourself in the butt for writing what you wrote.


You can't write the same way you talk. Read it first. If it makes no sense, if you wouldn't be able to diagram it as a sentence, then it's not a sentence. As our mixologist and head librarian (especially as our head librarian), you should be well aware of that. Perhaps you need to step back from some of your regular duties to work on this issue. I'll speak to Divine Dave about it.

As for that membership and dues thing, Divine Dave, forget it. TFWG is free for one and all for forever and a day.
 
You'd probably kick yourself in the butt for writing what you wrote if it wasn't so much fun and besides, it helps keep TFWG going on for - well who knows how long?
 
Well who knows how long this will go on but we know that this will go on until at least Page 1000 because everyone is looking forward to it.


Basnya apparently graduated from Miss Silkie's Class of Sentence-Writing. It's an epidemic. First, it was swine flu. Now it's this. Oh my! (All in good fun, Silkie, my little pumpkin.)
 
Everyone is looking forward to it and it will happen a lot quicker if each one of us pledges to devote just a few extra minutes a day to TFWG even if it means perhaps a few less tweets on Twitter.

Tweets on Twitter aren't as much fun as flirting on FaceBook...
 
FaceBook would be a lot more interesting if there was a way to look around the place without having to sign up first.

Is there actually a way to poke around facebook without registering? I have no idea.
 
Having to sign up first is not on my list of priorities, but then again, neither is Facebook .

My most recent contribution to TFWG makes perfect sense, my good fellow.
 
Neither is Facebook dear Silkie is the kind of end clue that makes it awkward for posters like me to come up with coherent, intelligent, well-diagrammed, grammatically correct sentences that keep you-know-who from blowing a gasket.

Blowing a gasket is something that the men of TFWG do NOT do when andreajesus posts on here...
 
Here I go again, waxing nostalgic for the times when a sport was a sport, and groovin' was still groovy.

I need to switch the 80s Hits programme off. I really do. ;o)

@WMC2006~

Well, I still buy film. Truth be told I haven't been even remotely impressed with those dinky, cheap little electronic things the kids are carrying about these days. Nope, haven't been willing to trade in my '71 Fujica ST801 for one of those things yet. ;o)

Then again, I rarely go on vacation without bringing my 1960's-era Pentax 120-film camera, either!! It looks sort of like one: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/59/Pentaxshift.jpg, except the textured surface on the camera's body is a dark brown colour, whilst the bottom and the cover over the pentaprism is anodised aluminum.
 
Groovy is the best term to describe the band camp yacht, which is why inexperienced teeny boppers always get caught attempting to hijack it, claiming that it belongs in their family, that they were only steering it for a little while, that the joyride is almost over, and that they will return the infringed, stolen property to a family member in a few days.
 
I really look forward to the times when I get to slap a helmet on my huge cranium, mount the old Mongoose, head south across the Glenn Jackson bridge and ride the bike path formerly known as the I-205 Transitway, many of the bike paths elsewhere in Portland it is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike.

Yup, it's *the* way to see East Portland, I think! ;o)
 
Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike any other advertising giveaway I have seen, were the free billboards being huffed and puffed from the bubble blower on that other band camp's old dinghy, while the little rower with one oar tried to figure out how to bail water in a hurry, after we took back our yacht with the lightweight, customized, marshmallow firing Howitzer, which made us wonder what would happen when we switched over to rubber bands.

Darth_vader, I too am a fan of my old Canon Rebel SLR, even though I have a digital. Although, I must say there is a honey of a Canon digital out there, but that is definitely for another day.
 
When we switched over to rubber bands, Silkie was able to threaten noisy people at the library by launching stuff at them but that's only when she wasn't falling head over heels for Darth who did his best to court Silkie by using words such as Fujica, textured, pentaprism, and anodised.
 
Words such as Fujica, textured, pentaprism, and anodised may impress Silkie but they would never score you any points with Olivia Newton-John because she's just not that easily impressed.
 
Textured, easily impressed copper plates were the stuff of Paul Revere artistry back in the day.

We had a fairly good female presence here at TFWG because of those like Silkie, Anyacat, and Andreajesus...
