Celine Dion's version was bad enough...

I mean, if I had a dollar for every time I'd been asked to play that bloody song, I wouldn't have to teach to make a living.

*Bobs cough.......s-gh-gh-gh-gh-gh and extends it in a giant wheezing cough*   Too bad that's not just text.


How about a little of this?




We'll kill off the thread. ;D   Starting with your ears.... mwuah-ha-ha! 8) ::)


I think that last one was worse though.  Next time... I can find worse.....



Getting closer.  Crank of the sound.  Put it on 144Hz on your monitor, crank the resolution up to a full 480p, and focus intently on the images.....  Also keep in mind the youtube creator had made a bunch of these videos they were running on autopilot at this point and the quality of the humor in the video itself had declined too, almost to the point where it's not really funny anymore....  Think about it.  Think about it!

Why is some moron posting some "answer" to "what is upper structures?"  With a video,no less. 

F# triad over C7.  There's an "upper structure."

I'm really cheesed off that people pretend putting some retard video is some kind of response.

Present company excluded, of course. 

Eh....I *** hate musicians.

But I hate business-people as much or even moreso. 

I just lost two-hundredK thanks to some moron dickcheeses in the *** 500.  MGHTHFOS.  Overnight.  Idiots.

Of course you're not going to let me win... because it is outside of your control.

I'll win because you are inferior to me (me being a stubborn, psychotic Scotsman with a penchant for whiskey, winning and piano (and not necessarily in that order) who is going to outlive you all)

I'm going to win because I am a winner (and I sure as hell don't want you peasants to win)

Does that clarify things for you outin?

You realise that stray cats can cause Encephalitis (or swelling of the brain). It's only a matter of time before one of the cats give you it, then eat your rotting corpse as a substitute for you not feeding them... on the account of you being dead from the Encephalitis.

First of all my cats are not stray...they are well bred and house trained...secondly my brain is made of  steel...and last if I ever happen to die and the poor cats don't have enough food they are welcome to feast on me :)

That would shocking if I haven't:  my day job is working in a warehouse in contact with hundreds of filthy, degenerate drivers and sometimes handling their nasty-ass parcels going out for delivery.

I also spend a good bit of time in one of the filthiest, nastiest bars in town.  It is a gross place, with gross people in it.  So, I fit right in!

So your immune system must have become really lazy...It may be I will win even sooner than I thought.

I have been in contact with all kinds of nasty things including tuberculosis and never been severely ill. I am not at all worried about the bug, but this will make a dent in my musical activities. Little time or energy to practice due to crisis at work  and lessons cancelled...

But no worry, I will make sure I have time to win this one :)

I don't understand your train of thought. I teach dozens of kids a week, many of whom have walked in coughing up a lung or dribbling snot out of their nose every 17 seconds and I still haven't gotten the flu...

How does that make my immune system weak??? If anything, I'm going to outlive you all.

Howard Hughes, American filmmaker and aviator, could win this thread.

Can you?

See.  I'm not convinced. 

But between recovering from a sprained or broken ankle (not sure which) and either bone spurs in my heel or incipient plantar fasciitis, I might have a chance.

Besides, I drink a lot of adult beverages and get very chatty about pointless absurdities.

Pretty much winning.

Sure there is.  He lives on in me, although in a degenerated form.  But, yes, slovenliness, collection of glass jars, and excellence at molesting woman.

That's what's needed to win, both this thread and life itself.

I'm sorry, but have you had anyone rate your effectiveness at molesting woman? Has he or she written a detailed report identifying the key factors in what makes your molestation of woman to such a high level of the so-called 'excellence'???

Yes. 

Although, you have to understand the phrase "molesting women" can be understood in bijection with the phrase "molestation of women." 

It's to be understood as comprehending the objective and subjective genitive.

I don't like sunshine either. Fortunately it's not much of a problem here. Most days it does not bother us at all. But we just closed the border so you cannot enter, sorry!

If I want to go out I just go to the woods.

And for food I have a freezer. I cannot cook much but I can put things in a kettle and let it be for half an hour or so. Put enough chili in and it tastes ok whatever the ingredients :)
I can also make porrridge in the microwave and cook eggs/pasta/rise/noodles.
I get most of my groceries delivered home anyway every 2 weeks or so.

I cannot consume alcohol anymore but what's the issue? When I did I often spend nice evenings with a botlle of red or whiskey. Who needs bars when you can drink alone at home?
