I'm a pretty bad brother.
« on: December 18, 2006, 12:10:14 PM »
My wee little brother, up in the cold wilds of Rochester NY, really wanted a Wii for Christmas.

I didn't want to wait on line, though, because I heard that Bowser was going around raping people, and that the Koopa's were videotaping it and selling the videos on Ebay, and that Bullet Bill was, well, I'm not even going to explain it, but it's painful, and that that Blowfish guy was in the port-o-john, poking people in the rear, and that the Hammer Brothers were beating people down, and that Big Boo was scaring people and stealing their Wii after they'd already bought it, and that Little Boo were crawling into peoples skulls and freaking them out, and Birdo was standing high above on the Best Buy eaves, watching ominously, and that there were bums behind the store cooking Yoshi eggs and cackling, and that Luigi was lying in a puddle of his own waste pleasuring himself with FLUDD, and and and

I just didn't think it was worth the risk.

Oh Birdo, there was always a part of me that thought in another life we could've been friends.

Okay, that's some funny stuff, mister.

I was very lucky, because the third person that arrived, at midnight (about 2 and a half hours before I did) was a mom, and she made sure we all had special permission to camp out from security with regular security checks. We weren't even standing in line for the vast majority of the time. It wasn't until more people started flooding in, like around 5 am, that we started moving chairs and stuff in a sort of line against the wall.

I had fun.

I live about 20 minutes outside of Rochester and you probably made the right choice. Bullet Bill is especially active this time of year.

That damn Yoshi probably ran and left his eggs at the first sign of trouble. I don't know how that species survives.

why does everyone say "wait on line" instead of "wait in line" all of a sudden?  I mean...   two different things, in my book.  (no book of lies.)   next thing you know it'll be "whilst on the queue" or something...

i think this discussion and on-lining happened someplace else, but "on-line" is how we say it in New Jersey.

Explore the world, you'll discover a vibrant tapestry of different traditions and expressions, you preposition bigot.

Get in the queue, Jersey scum.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

I get in line, I wait on line.

That makes no sense, Yankee brethren and sistren.


You can be "in" a line by being a member of it.  How can you be "on" a line?  Are you all crowd-surfing?
