Hey, Ken! How come no one hasn't showed up yet? Where's geo in jc to open today's comments? Where's our beloved GIF Bard to immortalise today's Big GIFs showcase? Where's cory to request Barenaked Ladies (and Wild Neil to give his approval even though he is not aware of the existance of the band)? Where's Murakami with its intriguing conversation starters? Where is Bjarne with his warm german saliutes?

Oh, the humanity!

Well, I woke up early as usual, downloaded the '…TOO_BIG.…' images, and went right back to sleep because a.) I needed it badly and b.) it sounded like the hungrier cat was aware that someone was awake, and I didn't want to stay awake long enough to fill and hide his fake rat toys/feeders. (That's a pain, but he's already lost a very necessary-to-lose pound.)

Quite possibly back to sleep now; drifting in and out to Ken's show has all the advantages of both living and not….

Ha, Ken!

That's a nice pronunciation of Schlammpeitziger but it's entirely wrong. Let me teach all of you how to pronounce it correctly:

Sch - like saying 'eXes'
lamm - 'hlem'
peit - 'poit'
ziger - 'Sager'

In other words, it's pronounced "exes-hlem-poit-sager".

I'm pretty sure about it because I did a German introductory course in '98. In the absence of Guido from Cologne I'm the defacto authority on German pronunciation.

Ooh I've been to Georgia and California, oh, anywhere I could run
Took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me

Oh I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
While I sipped champagne on a yacht
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things
That a woman ain't s'posed to see
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me

That's truth, that's love
Sometimes I've been to cryin' for unborn children
That might have made me complete
But I, I took the sweet life and never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that cost too much to be free
Hey lady, I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
I've been to paradise, never been to me
(I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
(I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
While I sipped champagne on a yacht)

Every moment someone is saying 'tuchus' is a moment they're not saying 'tushie', and that's great. Next to eliminate: 'poop' (say 'turds', 'excrement', 'crap', 'shit', or 'shite') and 'pee' ('urinate', 'micturate', or 'piss'). Instant death for anyone saying 'hoo-ha' where humans (and better) say 'vagina', 'pudenda', 'cunt', 'cunny', or 'fanny' will have to wait for Full Orbital Laser Capability.

Legal ID Time again at 11AM: Call 201-209-9238 and then:

This is WFMU East Orange, WMFU Mount Hope, In New York City and Rockland County at 91.9 FM and online at wfmu dot org brought to you by MY MOM:

She's faced the hardest times you could imagine
And many times her eyes fought back the tears
And when her youthful world was about to fall in
Each time her slender shoulders bore the weight of all her fears
And a sorrow no one hears
Still rings in midnight silence in her ears

Let her cry, for she's a lady (She's a lady)
Let her dream, for she's a child (Child)
Let the rain fall down upon her
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild

Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
Be careful how you touch her, for she'll awaken
And sleep's the only freedom that she knows
And when you walk into her eyes, you won't believe
The way she's always payin' for a debt she never owes
And a silent wind still blows
That only she can hear, and so she goes

Let her cry, for she's a lady
Let her dream, for she's a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She's a free and gentle flower growing wild

I went to the Booty Bank to ask for a loan and they say I don't have enough assets. But they said it like 'ass-ets'. I still don't know what the hell they meant.

@crateslinger: im glad im on target with my male prostitute having been a junkie then. NOT that i am in any way happy that most male prostitutes become junkies, that's really sad

the idea that we're going to have to see trump's dick just makes this whole trump presidency all the so much worse.

@Bronwyn-I met some junkies when I drove a cab one day in a pretty BAD part of Buffalo (it was the nice cool shady back parking lot of a McDonalds that had a turd in the urinal). This junkie guy kept giving me cab driving advice as he nodded off mid sentence. You can use that.
  Wed. 4/18/18 11:49am Sam:

If prostitution and drugs were both legal, fewer of them would probably be junkies.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ Wed. 4/18/18 11:50am BronwynB:

@neil: my male prostitute is from nyc and doesn't know how to drive, but maybe it's funnier if he gives driving advice despite not knowing how to drive

@sam: AGREED

@Bronwyn: I saw a magician on the subway a few weeks ago who was nodding off in the middle of his act. Looked like a working class Italian showman. But then in the middle of his act he would start to nod and hover. Even when he had a dingy looking dove on his head.

I hope somebody is ready to do the legal ID AS WRITTEN

Are those the lyrics of the abhorrent Skylard's tune, Ken?
Avatar Wed. 4/18/18 11:53am crateslinger:

Yeah Brownyn, you nailed it! However, in my experience if a runaway is going to become a prostitute they do that BEFORE becoming a junky, but that's purely anecdotal.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ Wed. 4/18/18 11:53am BronwynB:

@neil: yes, it's a musical about four sex workers who blackmail clients by threatening to release video of their liaisons, at first purely for money, but then they start targeting abusive powerful men and doing it for justice
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ Wed. 4/18/18 11:53am -Ken:

f0f0 I can't see from all the way over here but yes, they might be.

Ah, for a society that doesn’t stigmatize sex work and drug use. Who could folks shame in such a world... (rhetorical)

@crateslinger: yes, alexander gets kicked out of his family home and then becomes a prostitute and then a junkie, in that order.

Go winged legal-ID monkeys! Call and sing something other than the Skylard tune!

Some kind soul has compiled a bunch of Elliott Kalan's 'Letters from Listeners' improv'd 'songs' from "The Flop House": www.youtube.com...

I think it might make a good bed.

(Kalan was a writer on the "Daily Show" and wrote most of the revived "Mystery Science Theatre 3000',and compiled the 'Nuthin' Gay About Cowboys' short for the Oscars the year of "Brokeback Mountain". The podcast "The Flop House" saves my life every day, three friends snarky, adolescent, erudite, professional [jokes that also analyse joke and plot structure] , appreciative, and confortable with each other. They analyse and mock critical and commercial flops, but they also have affection for them and appreciate how hard it is to get movies made…as opposed to "How Did This Get Made" which is all-mockery and whose crew sound unpleasant thereby.)
