I think I need some weed. Don't start without me. Actually, you can start without me. Just don't finish without me. Deal?

 
No offense guys, but I was expecting more. Had any of you started a thread I actually replied in, I can assure you I would have given more. Very disappointed, ...I am right now.

And no handle on the english language.

Whaaat???

 
One point for an intellectual hit, two points for intellectual deflection. Let's keep track of our own score. Starting now.

But for to tellen yow of his array,
His hors were goode, but he was nat gay.
Of fustian he wered a gypon
Al bismotered with his habergeon,
For he was late ycome from his viage,
And wente for to doon his pilgrymage.

Chaucer is about as low brow as it gets with his use of vernacular and stories of the non-land owning dregs of society.

 
I am in ACT 2 of Turandot if that helps bump this up a notch in the class department.
Boom. Considered it bumped. How's it been? How is your dad?
Well. We went to the UM-OSU game a few weeks ago, that was a blast. We had great luck this year with UM football. Where you been? You seemed to have disappeared from here.
I had to release an expelling.

I bet that was an intense game live, you lucky dog. What do you think of going for the win? That, had it been made would have been the greatest moment in Michigan lore, especially had they not lost to State the following week. I think it took balls.

Yea, but at least this one was a knight, and he was "nat gay".

NTTAWWT.

 
I would post an opera thread but I don't think that is people's speed around here. I have been listening to one/part of one every night before I go to sleep. I am partial to Lakme, particularly the Flower Duet and L'Air des clochettes.

The Bell Song is lovely; for some reason it always brings to my mind the Hymn to the Moon from Rusalka.

 
I go back and forth between La Boheme and La Nozze de Figaro; depending on which I've seen last. For a tenor aria, nothing can match Pavarotti's Nessun Dorma, or Sutherland's soprano Mad Scene from Lucia di Lammermoor. But there are gems everywhere.

So your girlfriend slammed the door shut in your face tonight? That's all right.

And she took off to the opera with some highbrow from the city lights?

You grew up on the corner. You never missed a moonlit night.

Some things never change.

They stay the way they are.

You were born to rock. You'll never be an opera star.
