Poll question: Scavery or Cromulence?
OK, so it's kind of a lame poll, since nobody knows what the one word means, and the other is a made-up Simpsons word with multiple and varied meanings. But if you sing the subject line to yourself, to the tune of "Ebony and Ivory," it has weird al potential.

1. I thought the word was "promulent" from the Simpsons...
but I could be wrong.
I still feel enbiggened to be on DU.

5. You must be one of the
"No Scavering!" crowd. Do you by any chance know anybody in Sanitation in Orange County, NC?

I hate when I'm craptacular though.

7. Can't a guy be both?
And possibly even craptacular at the same time, on Sunday mornings, after Sabado Gigante?

15. I stayed home, of course.
Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 09:52 PM by short bus president
But I visited today. They gave me food. That's always nice. Suffer a visit, get food. Come to think of it, it's very much the same relationship they have with the wild animals they feed, except that I actually speak to 'em and such. At least I don't think the other wild animals speak to 'em. :shrug:

And on edit - both puppies are most cromulent, thanks. ;-)

13. Other, you obstreperous jackanapes!
(yes, those are actual words, though it's kind of redundant since a jackanapes is an obstreperous person)

20. Good morning, Fuzzy Slippers!
I was wondering how this got back on the front page! :hi:

I'm pretty sure short bus is still sleeping off lasts nights scavery activities - it's not noon yet, ya know. But, now would be a good time to talk about him behind his back! :P

I hear his feet stink. And you?
