Are they doing yoga?
they’re making love with the floor.
Well they’re not doing Yoda
I was thinking push ups…
Yep. That’s a load of new recruits doing basic in the army. As you can see, maye 1 in 10 has the correct form (a perfect equilateral triangle with arms straight and body straight). The rest will be hounded and harrassed until they get it
There’s gonna be a lot of drop outs before long
that makes sense. at first i thought they were all in the middle of doing sun salutations…which is weird since it’s military haha
They’re not US Army though, which country?
You really can’t have an equilateral triangle unless your arms were somehow as long as your feet to your shoulders. Even then, they would be at a sixty degree angle from your body.
Floor-humps. Its the new pushup.
My first thought: “Wow, they suck at push-ups.”
My second thought: “Oh, man, I hate downward-facing dog.”
I’d like to know what the officer is telling the grunt…
Perhaps it’s something along these lines… {link}
Sgt. Hartman is a god among men. Thanks for that….gotta go watch it tonight. Again.
I do what I can… It’s one of my husband’s favorites, so I’m well acquainted with R. Lee Ermey.
As mitosis begins, duplicated chromosomes condense into short structures which can be stained and easily observed under the light microscope. These duplicated chromosomes are called dyads.
But I’m Chromophobic…
Me too but I can’t quit him because of his tight genes and the way helix.
Ok…you win…the helix comment made me spew diet coke on the screen…
Amino harm. Anyway, a hearty LOL is linked to good Mendel health.
I don’t karyotype you are, so long as you aren’t unzipping genes in public!
I got a Crick in my neck staring at him.
I don’t care Y you were staring at him, but you neck would feel better if you took that heavy (peptide) chain off…
You seem a little tense today, Watson you’re mind MG?
*your* fvck it.
I spent all night in a pub on Punnett Square…
Really, RNA of us worse off after a pint?
You’re my new favourite punster.
I sure do appreciate it when Jocasta compliment my way
*stands and claps*
And I applaud your good taste
I must be dyslexic.. I thought you said sway, not way. Either works though.
Am I just a hopelessly geeky science nerd or did anyone else see a chromosome pattern in this LOL? *link*
I saw it too, but I am by definition a geeky science nerd. So I don’t think that’s any help for you!
And we’re both of viking stock, or so I presume. And so the VGSN Society is formed.
OMG you are FUNNY!…that was brilliant
On the set of Toy Story 3
The army men, walking with their feet stuck together, is my favorite part in both of those movies. by far!
Loved when the mom stepped on one… “A good soldier never leaves a man behind!!”
I can’t believe they’re making a Toy Story 3!
Really?
Yep! apparently Andy’s going to college and all the toys get donated or something? I don’t know, but all the original voices are coming back (except slinky dog because he passed away).
What I’m really looking forward to is the re-release of the original Toy Story, now redone in 3D. I think it’s set for October.
Hey… they only thing I’m excited about this winter is Sherlock Holmes (aka Robert Downey Jr. as SH!!). Yay!
No freaking way, that sounds awesome!
I watched the trailer the other day, RDJ is handcuffed to a bed naked. The whole other portion of the movie could suck and I’ll still pay.
Ok, that’s going on my gotta see list.
RDJr naked and handcuffed to a bed!!?? Who the fuvk cares about the plotlines and subtext?!!
Linkity Link….
Christmas Day Ladies! Can’t Wait!!
AC, you rock! Thanks for that, I’ll be in my bunk.
MEOW
“Madam I need you to remain calm. I’m a professional. Beneath this pillow lies the key to my release”.
I would SO not run away if I was that maid.
“Madam, I don’t know what you’re looking for…but the key is to the left…no…your OTHER left…”
With him being handcuffed he won’t be able to put up much of a fight…
*growls*
I was a bit surprised when I heard about the casting… I thought RDJ looks more like a Watson than Jude Law, since holmes is supposed to be so tall and thin and hawk-like…
RDJ will own the film (he’s my favorite actor and I’ve probably got an unhealthy obsession with the man) but they did put him in lifts to enhance his height.
I like Jude Law a lot too, irreparable cheating bastard though he may be.
I remember when the first one came out, my daughter was maybe 4…she couldn’t say “Woody and Buzz”… when she wanted to see the movie, she’d walk up with the video in her hand and say “Doodybuzz?”
*sniffles at the thought of the little 4-year-old now getting ready for her first year of high school*
That movie scared the BEJEZUS out of me when I was seven. *shudders*
I think they’re -attempting- pushups… I can find 7 doing them properly roflcaeks
and not succeeding.
There was a Royal Navy recruiter fellow at our school a while ago… He made us do push ups if he saw us with our hands in out pockets….
I hate push ups. I get to 15 and I’m knackered. I will never join the army…
Funny, my dad used to just smack me in the head. I wonder if the push ups wouldn’t have been better.
Better shape.
I was desperately hoping that they were not doing pushups. Ugh. Those are not pushups. They’re humping the floor.
They’re doing yoga.
They’re either doing the cobra…or they are cheating at push-ups.
Getting ready to invade America.
And this is most likely my last day of normal active posting here. Contract is up and I avoid posting here from home as I have other places I haunt. After today, my posting amount will drop as I haunt Gaia and move onto other places.
It’s been great.
I has been great. Honestly, I’m very sad to see you go.
Love and hugs.
*hugs* Thanks love.
Good luck with the job search–and the zombie writing!
Awwwwwwww! *sniffles* It won’t be the same!
Eh, there is plenty of wacky without me. It will be fine.
Aw, you are really going to be missed here, DWN.
At least you let us know what was up instead of just disappearing.
I guess this means we need to wish you good luck in the job market, too?
Yea, I need all the good luck I can get.
Fun corporate logic for temps here.
1. Only can keep them for a year.
2. A while back they let go of a bunch of temps, keeping me and four others as we were the best here.
3. When I leave, they are bringing back somebody they let go to replace me.
I honestly don’t know how to feel about but policy is policy, I suppose and no actual job openings here…
*hugs* That sucks. If I knew of any jobs in your neck of the woods I would let you know; but I think you’re the only person I know around there. Don’t let it get you down any more than necessary; you’re a smart guy & you’ll eventually end up where you need to be. Good luck in the meantime.
Pretty much everybody thinks it sucks except those with any authority to do anything about it. The on phone supervisors hate it, my direct superior hates it, even the security guards hate it.
I was actually presented with my favorite badge number retired in memory of my time there. I was actually touched they did that. The badge number 666 is retired from use for temps there. XD
Wow, they even, kind of, understood you a little. Shocking.
Touching, but shocking.
Maybe we should retire something at PK in your honor. Hmm. The phrase “with a penis”?
Up to you but I do hope that Godwin’s law will still get a proper amount of wanging.
*darts eyes toward bottom of Cleverness Here LOL*
I second this suggestion.
Motion passed, after today, with a penis is retired.
In bed…
Eh, they just know what badge I wore everyday and I made friends with the security supervisor while I was there. I got his card and email addresses with the retired card.
Was it because Seth just mentioned his piles?
Fester was the one mentioning his piles unless I missed an important Seth announcement…
No way! Crap, there goes half the zaniness on PK. Okay, we’ve got to find DWN another job he can post from. Let’s see… Electrician Enterologist… Fry Cook, damn, no openings for Evil Overlords.
Ya, it just feels weird to post here from home. It is why I go absent on the weekends. This place is basically my office ritual to destress. At home, I have YIM and Gaia to babble about on and those eat up a ton of my time. @_@
I think you should change your policy and dedicate a few hours to this place. Don’t be a quitter!
Oh I do plan to haunt like a bad, obnoxious ghost but this is my last day of posting like I have been for the year. So I will be around, just nowhere near as frequent.
And who will be our PK leader? We can elect a new president mid-term, it just won’t be the same! *bawls*
*can’t* rather
Already thought of that, check my below post.
DWN, can i have one last nibble?????
*pounces, holds down wrists and bites your shoulder repeatedly while growling*
*stands there holding remote detonator while watching DWN chewing on fake MG made from plastic explosives…*
… No good deed goes unpunished…
*is blasted sky high*
Seriously, I will miss not hearing from you on a daily basis… you don’t know how many times your sardonic wit got me through a rough spot in the workday!! All the best, my friend!!
In bed… with a penis… with a detonator…
LOVE YOU!
And so, as his leaving effects us…
He rides off into the sunset,
Our DeathWyrm Nexus…
Hearing his horse winny and gufaw…
He proudly aspouses
Godwin’s Law…
As his wit reverberates in my head…
Who could ever forget
“With a penis…in bed”
So, we send you off with a mighty “KABANG!”
Wondering when next we’ll hear
From the Mighty Nazi Wang!!
Though my skin, the explosives did sting
And I know not what next week will bring
Memories of PK Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring
Will to my mind, always cling
Though my praises have been sang
And the Nazis will still get wang
My send off has crash, boom, and bang
Now I leave my words upon your minds to hang
There is no need for fears
So please wipe all your tears
For again some time nears
Where I will be here to spank all your rears
There is a place where the nibbles end
And the pink raised welts still smart,
And there the tears fall soft and clear,
And there the rears burn crimson bright,
And there the wang lord rests before flight
To cool in the PK wind.
Well thanks for blowing him up before he could nibble on the rest of us, MG. Hrmph.
*recovers and tackle pounces Jane, bites and nibbles after scanning for explosives*
Woot, right babe!
*nibble nibble*
Yay! *purrs*
*notes that it was a intensive explosive scan. Then the biting, oh the biting that followed*
Yes, wear a high collar shirt… >_>
*shuffles around for a turtleneck*
Srsly though, you’ll be missed. Be sure to divebomb us occasionally and if you get a job that allows you to post during the work day, come back to us!
Of course, you aren’t rid of me. Just going to be having a deficiency in general me-ness. And if I get a job with appropriate amounts of slack or at least internet during breaks, I shall return.
I have a job opening for a Cabana Boy…
Nice try…
How ’bout a coy banana?
Wyrmie dear, I’m heading out for the weekend. I hope our paths cross again soon. Love and best wishes…
*gives a tender kiss on the cheek*
My banana is not coy.
*huggles MG despite inherent danger* I’ll be around.
And denial aint just a river in Egypt.
However, the day is still young and I will be here until 7pm central time.
After my last day of PK Presidenthood, instead of letting Charro inherit it automatically, I am allowing all the lovely girls from my cabinet to mudwrestle for it.
The video of which will keep me warm.
If anybody wants to hunt me down, like I said, I spend a lot of time on Gaia where I manage to be less political and more silly. Same username/handle there. I’m usually some kind of hidden ninja on AIM but if you want to try, same name there too.
{darklair_deathwyrm} is my yahoo id.
Cue random strangers bothering me by this evening.
Aw, Goodbye… Ah well, does this not mean you’ll have more time for your zombie novella?
Yes, yes it does.
Well if you write the horror novel of the century, reading it just might almost make up for the lack DWN-ness here…
anyway…
But I am
I doubt the of the century part but I suppose it would make up for a deficiency here.
nuuuuu dwn you can’t leave! I enjoyed lurking and reading you and others banter about random stuff. and where will we get our healthy dose of BDSM innuendos?
You’ll be missed, mate.
*huggle squeeze*
Well there are plenty of people still here to banter about random stuff, as for BDSM innuendos… I think Bad fairie can oblige when she feels the need.
Well hell, at least you have some e-mail addresses. Drop a line now and then, ok?
-
And for what it’s worth, there’s going to be a big gaping hole around here which I doubt anyone will be able to fill.
-
Good luck, Good Sir, please keep in touch from time to time.
Of course, let me know if that recipe worked out for ya.
You bet! I would have tried it by now, but with the new job and 12 hour days it’s been a bit difficult to get to. But as soon as I can, I’ll give it a go.
-
Like the rest, I really hate to see you flick off like that. But one does what one does when one needs to (or something like that.)
Well make sure to have it ASAP. I had it today and last night and I want the joy spread about. Froofrou needs to try it too.
There was a recipe? I didn’t get a recipe.
Well, you have my email and contact information. Send me message and I shall send you the wisdom of Lynn’s kitchen.
Oh, is that the yahoo you noted above? Ok then! Always like to find something new to cook.
Yep, I’ve had that email since I was sixteen. It is also my YIM handle for those wanting to stalk me.
Biscuit crust beef casserole – sounds delicious!
We had it with sausage last night and for my lunch today. The beef is great but I am partial to the sausage version.
What type of sausage? I’m thinking Italian would probably work well.
Yes, Italian sausage does work well.
It adds a little extra zing that I just adore.
The biggest hurdle I’m going to have is finding the canned biscuits. By the way, if I go to the store and ask for biscuits I’m going to get directed to the cookie aisle. And a biscuit can also be a cracker.. *sigh*
Canned? Biscuits are the easiest thing in the world to make. One of the few baking recipes I have memorized. 2 cups flour, 2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda, 1-2 teaspoons salt, stir together, add 4-8 tablespoons COLD butter and/or shortening. Take a butter knife in each hand and cross slice until the butter chunks are about the size of peas. Make a hole in the mixture and pour in 3/4 cup milk, stir, add up to 3/4 cup buttermilk, depending on whether you want cut or drop style (for crusts, you want wetter dough) Don’t stir too much.
Everyone should know how to make biscuits. As a bonus, if you add a lot more liquid and two tablespoons of suger, you have pancake batter.
Instead of knives I just squish the stuff between my fingers. Works great.
But.. but.. the recipe calls for ‘canned buttermilk biscuits’! I can’t go against the recipe..
All in all, not a bad week here at PK. Have fun flaming elsewhere.
You’re one to talk, troll.
Froo, do you actually not read, or do you just have trouble comprehending? I really can’t decide which is your problem.
I guess I should just be glad that you didn’t throw out another racial epithet…
Thats funny i thought you were going to say none of them can do push ups
SH*T!!!!! RUSSIA BOUGHT HASBRO!!!!!
shittiest pushups ever
That’s probably after 300 pushups
Looks like the tans are in for an easy time.
Sorry, came in late and too tired to read all preious posts. But the eazy answer is to fire up your turned on bic lighter .. or better yet a propane torch… and you can melt them into a useless mass. Just be careful not to pick up the corpses fefore they are dead… cause you could end up with a a scar from the melted plastic…
Sequencing Army DNA
Ack! Make it stop!
Ah, got it and commented.
