          No, according to Seinfeld, some are real and fabulous!

          Some are fake and scary. (Though, some are fake and replacements, which is not scary, because there’s nothing scary about wanting to look normal after illness takes them away.)

          Yesterday was show day. Usually, day-after show day I’m in all kinds of pain and not firing on all six cylinders. So I was surprised to come up with this all on my own.

          If one’s real and the other’s fun, does that mean one’s fake and the other’s – well, boring? Do we only get to interact with one? If so, do we have to choose first and are they labeled? Or do we have to figure out which one’s which on our own and are we committed to the decision we made about the one with which we want to interact?

          Fire bad, tree pretty.

        Then there’s “The CarHorn,” where you swoop down the hill and through the puddles in a Radio Flyer, trying to avoid Mrs. Dombrowsky’s ’68 Pontiac (they don’t make Detroit cars like they used to). That’s even more awesome when you’re bigger and weigh more – serious speed!

        Another of my favorites is “Captain Eh,” which was recently brought back. It’s OK.

    Why am I getting ads for used motorcycles? Are those considered “REAL AND FUN!”?
    There’s also ads for used transmissions, which I’m pretty sure only fall under one of those categories.

    I need Lola’s coffee IV, because I first read this as ‘Feal and Run’.
    Misspelled, but what else would I expect from craigslisters?
    Feel and Run has been the favorite schoolyard game of many children, who grow up to post horrible things on craigslist.

      Feal and Run sounds like a variant of Kissing Tag. I remember my mother being horrified when I told her we played that at daycare. I wasn’t old enough to be kissing boys! I shouldn’t kiss boys! That’s bad!
      … I suspect, now that I think about it, that a lot of my repression issues started right then. Now I know.

      Also, Feel and Hang Around, etc. is still a micro-improvement over Feel and Get Bounced Out in the Middle of the Night So You Can Stumble Home in the Dark. (Bastard. I still think that’s s***ty. On the other hand, I learned fast. It only happened once.)

        What you don’t realize is that your mother was giving you the okay on being a lesbian. Because boys are the devil. If you had listened to her like a good child, you wouldn’t have had to play the Bounced Out version of the game. Thank God you learned. I know girls who gripe to me about it at least once a month. And then we play the Loyal Friend bonus Round, which is….
        ‘Out of Bed at 3 am to Drive to Cryptically-Described Location in Bad Part of Town to Pick Up Stumbling, Crying Friend, Listen to Same Sob Story, Give Same Unheeded Advice, Then Sit Around with Awkward Aardvark at the Gynecologists Office While Your Friend Lies to First-Name Basis Intake Nurse.’

          *SNORT!!!* Actually, I think the only thing that consoles my parents about my aging, unmarried state is that it’s not because I’m a lesbian. That, for them, would be worse. I, on the other hand, think I might have better luck being at least bisexual, because as (I think) Woody Allen put it, you have twice the chance of getting dates! And I could marry either in more and more states! (Not this one, though.) But, instead, I’m stuck with men.

          … Sorry, I didn’t realize that sigh was SO loud.

          You’re a kinder friend than I am. After my friends and I turned, oh, 25 or so, we stopped putting up with fetching-in-the-middle-of-the-night crap.

    “Real” and “Fun”?

    Well, wouldn’t a “real” person includes some sort of contact info? Or, is the search for this “real” person part of the “fun”?

    Or, is the “fun” in tormenting people with “real” language skills?

    Or, more telling, have we discovered that CL has a limit of only 8 CTRL+V “pastes” per post?
