Alright here is my very important babble.....
One night when I was in college my roommates and I were playing the board game "Would you rather." (For those that don't know it essentially asks you to choose between two equally horrific scenarios, like, would you rather die in a fire or die by drowning? Um, actually, I would prefer neither thankyouverymuch!). Anyways, I am not kidding when I tell you that one of the questions was, "Would you rather find a weeble in your bowel movement, or a bowel movement in your weeble?"
Wait. wwwwwhhhhhhhaaaattttt?!?!?!?!?!?!?
To this day it remains the most bizarre question I have ever been asked, to the point that my best friend and I have spent hours debating it and refer to it as "the deathbed question." (i.e. when we are both 100 and on our deathbeds is when we will each finally share our answer.)
So, I put it to you babblers. Which would you prefer? Yes, you may have to go Google Weeble but the basic analysis is that Weebles are a kids toy. They are little people with a round base. Hence the slogan "Weebles wobble but they don't fall down."
It's just so wrong that I can't help but think about it!

Indeed we do.. Usually we drop the last syllable and add an 'a', 'ie' or 'o' ..Good morning jcat. Arvo is short for afternoon. We Australians like to abbreviate everything. It saves energy! I hope you have a good day at work
- bar-b-que = barbie (as in 'toss another shrimp on the...')
- football = footy
- mozzie = mosquito
- Macdonald's = Maccas
- a cup of tea = cuppa
- smoko = a work break, even if no-one smokes anymore.
- sanga = sandwich (we even got too lazy to pronounce the 'd' here)
Good lord. I had to google that up, and that is just so wrong.
I guess I'd prefer to see a weeble in my poo. At least that has a scientific explanation.
See. So many questions. Hence why it's good babble, and takes a lifetime to fully analyze!
I have a good theoretical answer for where the weeble in the poo could come from!
My grand child put it in my mouth when I fell asleep in the middle of our play session. I don't think she meant any harm, maybe it was her way of stopping my snoring.
When I woke up, I didn't realize I swallowed it because I am half awake anyways.
Good babble topic EB24!

Well the grandchild or any child for that matter could also have something to to with the bowel movement in the weeble. Toddlers can get poo in all places.
@katachtig I mentioned this to Aston and he suggested your autocorrect needs an upgrade. :lol3:@AbbysMomAaron ( I can't even imagine what autocorrect would do with that name) and I went out to eat after working around the house and yard all day. I told him about this thread and "keg" and his adventures and how I laugh every time I see "Keg". I was on my phone on the way home because Sunday is a big fantasy football day for us and was reading the latest posts by @@katachtig and started laughing. He looked over at me and just said " Keg?"
DH says the same "Keg? Who is this Keg? and what are you doing while I'm wandering around in a snowstorm?" I checked with my phone and it prefers Aston to Aaron.
Wow, Keg is certainly in the middle of nowhere!
Has anyone seen the picture of the dog on Facebook with the tiny "mini me" someone made out of his fur. It's actually quite disturbing. :lol3:

Hope Angel is OK after her aparent salmon overdose. :-(
Wow, that is remote! Wouldn't want a personal snowstorm following me out there, I get lost easy even when it isn't snowing!
You could dream, but it was at 550 when I got up (at lunch time) today.
OMG EB24, now I am petrified of any forthcoming interviews as I head towards unemployment.
Tomorrow I think I have to be up and out to work by about 8 am, today I got up at 12 noon after getting to sleep around 4 am. Will I manage to get to work looking semi human, or will I forget to change out of my PJs?
Heading off to my doctor appointment as soon as my daughter is off to school. I don't know what I'm going to do without my Monday morning nap. Maybe I'll nap in the waiting room. It takes forever to get in anyway.
If you're going to find a weeble in your poo, you'd better make sure it's a small one.....that could hurt! Gives a whole new meaning to hemorrhoids.
I'm on the last day of my holiday and so far all I've done is eat a very unexciting brunch, babble on TCS, and watch Mouse alternate between pouncing on his Undercomver Mouse and jumping away like it's some evil invader. He's got a runny eye but still wanting to play, I'm trying not to tire him out too much in the hope it helps him fight off his virus but he's intent on getting hyper anyway. I may give in and get DaBird out, we'll see.
I just found out that the kitty that has been hanging out in our garage at night may be declawed. I'm worried about him now. If you have any ideas for me on how to help catch him please check out my post "garage visitor" in strays and ferrals. I don't usually promote my posts but I'm very worried about him now and would love to see him get home safely.

The poor thing, I hope not but wonderful you for trying to look after him. I've never captured a cat before so no idea how you go about it other than maybe involving food.
I'm off to find my vacuum, can't remember the last time I cleaned my sitting room and it looks a state. Think some housework has to happen today.

Such a shame we couldn't make 1000 posts by today- but it was sure. fun trying! Great idea for a contest!
I've done my cleaning: hoovered the whole flat and put on a load of washing. Now I'm back and happy to see we are ALMOST at 600! We can't give up, we have to do our best to make another 400 by the time the day's out across the globe. Let's see what we can do!
