When something dramatic happens to me, do you want to hear about it?

1. Will there be a powerful, touching soundtrack?

If not, then no. I need some kind of musical cue to let me know how to feel.

[jpgray]

2. I think my potential drama should be scored with an old tone-wheel organ

You know, like the old radio plays.

[democracyindanger]

7. That could work, but only if there's also a foley artist.

Rocks in cigar box for thunder, that sort of thing.

3. I want a story

A heart rending story...
Worthy of the classics.

[jpgray]

5. I'll provide photos

And I'll use vague questions to sort of outline the happenings without being explicit. That way I can stretch things over dozens of threads.

8. Sounds great

Go to it.

[Fenris]

4. Will you tell me how much you've grown as a person because of it?

And will you use flowery prose?

[jpgray]

9. Indirectly these will all be about what a noble, tragic figure I am

And about the terrible injustice of people whose behavior doesn't suit my every whim and caprice at all times.

[Fenris]

11. Can you also rehash the same tired stories about how you've been wronged?

And can you manage to work those stories into every post you write?

[jpgray]

14. I could try

But these days I really have to take things one day at a time... sigh. :cry:

18. Nursing school gotcha down?

20. someone had sex with his favorite hat

6. Sure . . . because then we can start a new thread and be snarky

about whatever happened to you.

10. jpgray - misunderstood genius

go to it.

[SOteric]

12. That depends.

Will something dramatic be happening to you every 15 minutes? - Or closer to once every 2 or 3 years?

Will you be sharing it with us to increase our enlightenment? - Or because you're perhaps seeking to condescend by way of how much more enlightened you are than us lot?

Will you be seeking advice, help, or support? - Or will you be grinding our noses in how much more exciting your life is than are ours?

15. The condensation on my water glass recalls the tears of heartbreaks past

:cry:

[asthmaticeog]

13. I'd prefer to hear when mundane things happen to you.

For example, did you scratch any itches today? If so, WHY did you not post about it? Did you listen to any music? Because I didn't see any "I'm listening to so-and-so right now" threads from you. I have no idea what you had for lunch or dinner, or if you did any snacking. jp, you're a great guy, but you're really not holding up your end of the Lounge at all lately.

[jpgray]

16. Ever feel you have an itch that will never be scratched again?

Like the poison ivy of shattered dreams, it is. One big crockery rash. ;(

[JimmyJazz]

17. only if you post pictures to go with your dramatic tale.

[Guaranteed]

19. Yes, what felines bore WITNESS to these amazing tales? nt

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

21. You are far too practical to ever have anything dramatic happen

[jpgray]

22. Not true--I almost had to wear two socks of different colors once

I wore sandals instead.

24. Now Queenie Asks.

[jpgray]

25. You're making this very hard for me

:cry:

26. Angst is such a lonely word.
