The Worm - GROSS! ...and a little smurf intervention [Archive]

12-11-2003, 05:31 PM

Ok, there's an ad that keeps coming up at the top of the forums with an apple and a worm. I hate to be all girlie and whatnot but it's GROSS! It's making me sick to my stomach and ruining the taste of my wonderful chicory coffee.

is this one better?

I agree about the worm - I keep having to double-check my beer (and by beer in this case I mean Coors Lite).

I vote for the Smurfs... especially Smurfette...

Hey minstrel, I ran into somebody. I pulled her in here to show her your post (hope you don't mind). She has something to tell you...

She has a certain opinion that could potentially damage your view of her though. I probably should keep this confidential but you have a right to know...She has been known to say "Down with the yellow 'toons!!!" This could be a problem...

Indeed...

However, I think we can work with her - a snip of the corpus callosum here, a touch of a frontal lobotomy, a keg or two of prozac... and then a large box of donuts and a Flaming Moe or two. She'll come around... ;o)

Oh dear. I can see we need to take away some of your psych tools...this could get outta hand real quick-like.

They really could have found a more 'tasteful' way to do that ad.

The worm has got to go! Quick, get Rocky, he'll need the bait this summer! :)

Addressed over at ~~> http://www.webproworld.com/viewtopic.php?t=7679&start=399

But for the sake of thread here ~~ Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the worm crawling out of that apple in the ad that frequents the header here of late, is not that typically found to grace the innards of an apple. But... is instead a night-crawler! (a.k.a. a variant of the Earth Worm) AND, not only is it an earthworm, given the fact that it has all those nifty little polka dots all over it, a trait I've never seen professed in the tens of thousands of them I've impaled on fish hooks, it would appear in fact an artificial earthworm too! What is truth in advertising coming too these days!

You're not, by any chance, part of the South Park team, are you? Your Rocky looks like one of the parents on that show... ;-)

Now that was funny Leisa!!! :)

A remarkable likeness for being cartoon characterized! I am impressed Leisa!!!

And, that having been said.... Have you been in Wen's medication by chance? LOL!

janeth

12-13-2003, 08:25 PM

I have to say that Leisa is really good.

She brings a whole new deal to the fourms and is very funny also.

And I love the picture of Rocky but you left the gray out of the hair.

Leisa

ha! No...maybe we should be asking Rocky if he's made any special guest appearances on sick and twisted cartoon shows lately?

Now that was funny Leisa!!! :)
hehe...I could barely see straight while I was drawing it I was laughing so hard..."rocky" looked so cute with that little worm in his hand.

A remarkable likeness for being cartoon characterized! I am impressed Leisa!!!

And, that having been said.... Have you been in Wen's medication by chance? LOL!
Well! Coming from the man himself that's quite a compliment! hehe

Regarding the meds...You know, that stuff grows on trees in Leisa Land. It's amazing! but, uh, wen, *nudge, wink* watcha got over there? A sample perhaps?

And I love the picture of Rocky but you left the gray out of the hair.
Aw shucks on the other comments. :) It made me blush. About the gray hair...well, when I tried to edit it, poor lil rocky came out looking all evil and such. So...hmm?

janeth

12-13-2003, 09:40 PM

Come on Leisa go ahead and post evil Rocky with the Grey hair I want to see him.

Leisa

12-13-2003, 10:34 PM

Ok janeth. I didn't save my first thingy so I had to redo it, and, well, I couldn't stop there so I got kind of out of control and, well...

Ladies and Germs, May I present, everybody's favorite fisherman, now appearing on center stage...ROCKY!!!

Is there a support group for people who find it hard to express their thoughts in words once they have grown dependent on expressing their thoughts with thousands of little pixels of color? I think I have a problem.

janeth

12-13-2003, 11:36 PM

Now there is the Rocky we know and love.

I see Wenwilder (more wilder the wen) on the far left
But who is the bald guy is that mikmik?

Beside what looks to be mikmik is minstrel

I have you all figured out.

I love it Leisa great job.

Death to smurfs and all other little fuzzy things from the same time period!

Right now I am suffering in Care Bear HELL. My four year old daughter is in officially addicted to them in my opinion. I can't even get her out the door without two of them in her arms.

Some tings should remain dead! Smurfs and Care Bears are two of them.

By the way... I kind of like the litle yellow "worm." It kind of reminds me of the bannana slugs in the Pacific NW. The are much perferable to the purple millipeds in the back country of Puerto Rico!

Hi Leisa
You are very good. It is more then just your drawing it is also the way you express your self when your write.
I love reading what you have to say.

Leisa

12-14-2003, 02:05 PM

I love it.

My daughter will be three on Tue.

We have Barney coming a clown and magic show

We will have over 100 people here the reason I bring this up is she is sitting here wanting to look at Rocky's picture saying

Cute moma cute he is so cute.

She keeps wanting to go back to the picture

Awwwww! That's so sweet! :)
Over 100 people are coming to your house? That'll be hectic! Exactly how many of that 100 will be children? I hope you can keep your sanity!

janeth

12-14-2003, 02:25 PM

There are going to be around 40 kids.

My husband thanks I have lost my mind and has already said the party is going to be outside and no one was coming in the house.

I let him talk and say, yes I know, but the truth is I´m the boss I just let him pretend sometimes.

Leisa

12-14-2003, 02:36 PM

You've got it! My hubby thinks he's in control, which is fine with me. I know the truth! Giving him proper credit though, he is the sweetest guy to ever walk the face of the earth...but I'm still in control! Hmm, maybe it's he who let's me think I'm in control...I'll have to go have a talk with him about that...

12-14-2003, 04:06 PM

You know the Bible says behind every good man is a good woman. Anyway I think that is where I herd that.

But you notice there does not have to be a good man behind every good woman

I guess that means we can do it by our self

minstrel

12-14-2003, 04:27 PM

behind every good man is a good woman
That was almost certainly written by a man trying to appease a woman who was angry with him for reasons he knew full well he'd never be able to figure out - it's the same principle as flowers...

I think I'm going to short circuit...My husband just told me we're both in charge...I don't know, what, is, I, uh, er, can't see, um. going dark, where am I...

Ok, handing control of the keyboard to my guy..

I have to deny it. I just have to. It's not true. I'll let you decide what isn't true though. She's taking the keyboard back. I think she might be angry HEY!@#^@87*#$*

It's me again. Is it bad to hit your husband upside the head with a keyboard? I'll be back...I have to make sure he's ok... :)

I am so sorry to bring this sucker back to the top of the list but is it just me or does that (pardon me) *#$&@&^*& ad come up more often now than it ever did before? I swear it's there just to torment and tease us. I'm trying to keep the whine out of my "voice" (would that be an e-voice?) but it's getting on my nerves. I think this outburst is due to this flu I've got. Please forgive me. I think I need to go get back in bed and sleep another 20 hours. Or...I could try some of that Pumpkin soup Matauri swears by.

Oh by the way, seems several of us had the 'sickies' a few weeks past, but minstrel had the answer. He's a doctor, you know.

Frankly, minstrel, I am appalled by your lack of hospitality. You haven't seen rocky1 for ages, and when you do, you can't even offer him the first swig outta a fresh bottle? The least you could do is pour him a stien of vintage dextro- mathorphan or two!
