Hello all.

I'm looking for a comprehensive list of smiley faces  ei. :-)  I saw a list  
of these once, but have no idea where to get them.  Does anybody have any  
leads for me as to where I could get a hold of them?

  See, the only reason you think that Al Jourgenson has no slack is that he
took all of yours, and, being the little pink crawling thing that you are,
you can only see your own.  Al and bob have been known to kill eachother
numerous times each night, while going through barrels of frop.  It is the
clear mark of bob that the music is canned so that sniveling house-music
worms like yoursef shell out your hard earned $$$ to buy his albums then
whine about how much you hate him.

Then bob, al, jesus, and I will drive off in my hotrod.

Send me $20 -- Or -- well, you know the routine...

"BoB" sez:  If "everyone" shouts that then "everyone" is a pink conformist.

"BoB" happens to think that a lower GI checkup is FUN!!  Barium enemas

And people who think it unfunny should exercise their "BoB"-given right
to killfile the thread and shut the fuck up!

The cascaders are, alas, the only people left on the net with any slack.

Lighten up!  Have some PILS!  I'd tell you to find your inner slack
except that I just stole what little was left.

Dispatcheth thyself, and quickly too, for the day of wreckening draws
nigh.

Subject: slack is not slack (was every other alt.slack post)

The disease took the nose first, where it put forth a little speck no bigger
than a small lentil; where by the way, this is to be noted as a strange and
wonderfull thing, and our delight was to drink out of such beastly cups
which might put us in mind of sinful and filthy lechery.  And when they
entered upon him, he said "Peace", they said "surely we are afraid of
you."
Power in narration seems limited to omniscience.
WHAT IN THE HELL DO YOU THINK I'M DOING?//???
~S = 5% @  ___ege___
Slack is growing, due to the presence of deadly gases released into the
air by freizing fire.  There is, in fact, a perfectly complicated answer
to the question, "how can there be infinite slack if the conspiracy has
most of it, having stolen it from others?"  and it is being witheld by
the government, who edited the answer out of the contraversial "report
of the telephone directory commission".  Slack, as it travels from the
glands of subgeniuses into the clutches of the conspiracy (who are too
pink for automatic transmission) shrinks in size, whereby it can be
both infinite and divided at the same time.  Since all subgeniuses have
infinite amounts of slack, and the conspiracy only has 80% of the existing
slack, sub-g's have more slack, since their slack approaches 0 in comparison.
What has yet to be accounted for is the so-called "dark slack" which
hovers around the polyverse in the form of tiny humoungous particles,
which under the proper circumstances, have been known to coagulate into
wholicles, which can be examined using newly devised testicles.
"Dark slack" can be distinguished from true slack only with careful
consideration, but only unslackful people can use careful consideration.
This is what is known as the "indeterminacy theory" whereby examining slack
makes slack disappear.
"Bobbie" research has recently determined a number of useful, entirely biased
and unwarranted opinions, including that "bobbies" will die if pumped full
of everclear.  Also, "bobbies" are entirely incapable of distinguishing
true slack from True slack, or True Slack for that matter.  Polls demonstrate
that long cylindrical objects must be firmly planted into a "ground" in order
to remain errect, and that the average "bobbie" cannot tell the difference
between true slack, true false slack, true false other slack, and genuine
false slack.  bobbies do have a preference for slack over more slack, though.
"Arnold Palmer recommends Penzoil (R) for the best protection against
viscosity breakdown" and it's a pretty good lubricant too.

ask "do you want fries with that?", reward them with a request for an oaken

quest for peanuts, lead them to the top of the ground. here, they may see the

	Personally, I find it impossible to believe that a newsgroup
	in which supposedly creative people are the major participants has
	not yet figured out that cascades just aren't funny.  Doesn't anyone
	know a funnier language trick than running together simialarly
	sounding meaningless sentences?

	Maybe someone should come up with a new trend of some kind.  Something
	unusual, as befits so unusual a board.  Something that involves
	some brainpower and/or cleverness.  Rearranging sentences or 
	taking a full post and deleting words/sentences...  Acrostics?

	Doesn't someone ou there have an idea for a new goddamn trick?
	I, for one, will kill if I see another totally unfunny cascade.
	Excessive bandwidth usage totally aside, it just isn't impressive.
