Wack-a-Ding-Hoy

[jesus]

I think this forum has been besieged by some wacky folk in the past two weeks.
This anit yo mamas coffee clutch!

Edit: Yes this is the pot calling the kettle black.

[Seadawg]

Maybe if I adjust the tinfoil, I will get a better radio station, but in the meantime those of you who are jealous cuz the voices are talking to me, just remember it is my fantasy and I will have it however I like....

[Rachel Peters]

i smell dead people

Can I be on this list?

I know I've been her for longer than a few weeks, but sometimes when I cover one eye with my hand and look straight ahead I think I have x-ray vision.

Sometimes I lay down on the ground and act like I'm strapped to the bottom of the earth, and only my invisible straps are keeping me from dropping down into space.

I used to think that extras who died in movies actually died. I thought that they were so vain and wanted fame so badly that they'd die in order to have their one moment on screen. Movie death scenes made me horribly depressed.

I used to get in trouble for licking my sisters.

When I was in the 9th grade I wanted to grow up to become a drifter.

When I was little I wanted to marry Tony Danza.

Do I need to go on?

[jesus]

I've never licked my sister.
(Although I did once step on her neck in the middle of the night and break her Hyoid Bone.)
Some people in my family feel that I am in fact a drifter.
Marry Tony Danza...Not so much.
And do you mean to tell me that the extras dont die?

I wish some of them would.
I'd have to deal with a lot fewer of those aspiring "theater people" I knew in college.

At least I don't show up to classes wearing a cape and a tambourine.

Noooo, none of the nutters who briefly wander through p.net are anywhere near as crazy as the regular members here, let alone the street-performing community at large. Remember, we only have those that are literate join us here.

Do you guys know Rumplestiltskin? Take a couple of months and read some of his work here. He is definitely the happiest and most inspiring of our nutters. Any-one who thinks either I, Martin, Robert, LDR, Frack, Doc Eric, or Jester (just to name a few but deliberately leaving out Rachel) is sane, has more problems than all of us put together. I won't even mention Rachel.

I can't actually think of any-one here that I could say seems completely sane and the casual nutters just can't cut the mustard. They're not in the same league or perhaps even on the same planet.

And then, of course, there is Rachel.


Shit, I can't believe I just did that.
A f#$*ing smilie.
I'll be looking at porn next I suppose.

Damn the evils of the internet.

[Rachel Peters]

Do you see that man in the corner? ...oh. ...me neither.

The art lies in applying one's insanity in such a way as to benefit or entertain the boring... I mean "normal" people.
Harnessed mental imbalance can make for a fine career.

Rumplestiltskin is someone I need to meet.

Peter, thank you for the creepy winky face.
I feel loved.

Meet Rumple!

Through the vast efforts of anonymous parties, interviews with Rumple have been arranged, and posted. Brilliant stuff, if I may say.

I like to think of myself as Hyper-Sane, actually.

maybe supersane...

[Peter Voice]

I've always thought you were a model of sanity even, super-sanity, Doc.

I rest my case.

[Butterfly Man]

Sisyphus was psycho

Who's normal?
Any regular, ordinary or acceptable people around here?
Martin ain't your average bear.
Taxi ain't no window dummy.
Doc ain't no common wheel cog!

Stickman won’t fill the shoes.
Jester won’t fall in line.
Jesus won’t get in step.
Seadawg won’t tote that barge.

Jayrodin is difficult.
Freecells makes waves.
Stephon rocks the boat.

Jim might take the path of least resistance but he don't go with flow.

Jeep won’t toe the line.
Nick don't fit.
Frisbee won’t shape up.
Peter won’t fill the spot.
Gazzo can’t make the grade.

Should Gav put his shoulder to the wheel?
Would Rumple put his nose to the grindstone?

No!

We’re outsiders stuck on the inside.
Passing through society's digestive track.
Irritating the system.
Upsetting the belly.
Throwing everything off balance.

Chance is a stone in your shoe
Em’s an itch on the tit
Rachel’s a rash on your back.
And I’m a pain in the ass.

There is an old joke that anyone with a military background has heard before...

"Look the entire parade is out of step except for my boy Johnny...."

I think to be a performer you have to have no fear about being out of step. Very few people want to make the sacrifices performers make. I wont get into a litany of thsoe scarifices, becasue each of the performering arts has their own, as well as those that are common to us all.

But robert has an advantage... He has a permanent "butterfly" as opposed to those damn transient things I get just before show time.

[Rachel Peters]

one moment, while I hack off my ear.

So is there a sense of normality within a circle where everyone is weird?

If "normal" is defined by the majority...

[jayrodin]

When I'm in that place betwixt wakefulness and dreams, especially when I'm falling asleep in the back seat of a moving conversion van, I can actually see through my closed eyelids.

I'm not telling any lies.

With this evidence I would obviously be in that "Hyper-Sane" category with Dr. Eric.

You see it is my extraordinarily advanced "spider sense", if you will, that makes me seem so "difficult" to the common weirdo of average intelligence.

Extraordinarily advanced spider sense in relation to common weirdo of average intelligence equals common weirdo of average intelligence retreating into a state of ignorance and before to long an extreme state of blind arrogance.

Ignorance is bliss.

For this one man band there is no greater joy than making people happy.

I've got a royal flush.... with cheese.

Hey -- did he ever get his nose back?
If I could give him mine, I would. ...but mine's not funny. It's just a #7 shape.
I have a crooked left index finger though. I'd chop it off and mail it, if it could help.

....whoa. I just realized how Van Gogh-esque that sounded.
Wack-a-ding-hoy, indeed.
