The Sibling Below Me...

[Opsa]

Close! I've been saying "Hallo Possums!" and adjusting my giant purple hairdo and rhinestone glasses.

The person below me thinks I'm actually a man.

[Aphos]

I would never make that mistake, dear Opas.

The sibling below me wants to write the great American novel.

[The Meromorph]

If only I could be sure it would write back!

The sibling below me eats canneloni through a straw,

[DaveL]

Only when I'm tired of using my bare hands.

The Sibling below me thinks North Korea would be a neato destination for a beach holiday.

[Aphos]

If I were in the Marines, I would.

The sibling below me thinks Tom Baker was the best Doctor Who.

[Scriblerus the Philosophe]

Sure.

The sibling below me is on the run from the fat police.

[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

All those jokes about Crisco really got me in trouble.  (not to mention all those Non-Dairy Coffee Creamer puns ... )

The sibling below me did not realize that non-dairy coffee "creamer" and Crisco have basically the same ingredients ...

[Vita Curator]

Ah yes, and when you mix the non-dairy coffee creamer and Crisco together the resulting concoction may be used as wallpaper paste, spackling compound, bondo to fix your car, the stuff they use to apply the tiles to the space shuttle and lastly, the gunk that cardiologists find when they do an angiogram.

The sibling below me knows of additional uses for the non-dairy creamer/Crisco concoction.

[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

I understand that Ocean Liners routinely keep this stuff handy -- in case of an iceberg attack!

The sibling below me is deathly afraid of marauding icebergs.

[The Meromorph]

They disguise themselves as lettuce, you know!


The sibling below me has tried to churn Ice Cream into Ice Butter.

[Aphos]

I think it would go really well on ice toast.

The sibling below me wonders why the World Series is called the "World" Series.

[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

Yes, I do wonder that, seeing as how baseball (or some variant of it) is now played world-wide.  Yet, it's only North American teams that get to compete.  What arrogance!

The sibling below me would prefer a submarine to a hot-air balloon, if given a choice.

[DaveL]

I once tried a hot air balloon on 12" roll at Subway and got it stuck between my teeth. I switched back to a normal sub immediately.

The sibling below me thinks that eating fast food 3 times a day will result in massive weight reduction.

[Aphos]

Well, it is fast food.  It must make you fast, right?  And if you are so fast, you should burn up lots of calories.

The sibling below me loves to watch campy sci fi movies on Saturday night.

[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

Yes, yes I do - Evil Dead would have been a treat.

The sibling below me didn't need to look that title up on IMDB.com
