What do you think of Oedipus Rex?

[MissHoneychurch]

He thinks we talk behind his back when he is asleep. I say, if he already thinks so, let's do it :evilgrin:

[Dangerously Amused]

1. Gotta love that OR!

Smart and funny and oh! - those sultry eyes!


:7

[MissHoneychurch]

2. And he is a cat person

that alone is a reason to love him

:7

[Dangerously Amused]

4. My kitties agree wholeheartedly!

:)

[reyd reid reed]

12. Anyone who's a cat person

Can't be ALL bad...

And sometimes it's good to be a little bad...

:evilgrin:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

3. He's got a cool beard.

[wildhorses]

5. he likes baseball and music and that's enough for me

I like him, even when he's sleeping:P

[MissHoneychurch]

7. And he is a Monty Python fan

that is the humor I love.

[reyd reid reed]

8. Don't forget the cute

He's awfully cute, y'know.

And charming.

[Droopy]

6. Haven't exchanged many words with him

But he seems like a nice guy to me.

[Random_Australian]

9. I've talked to him on AIM. He eats steel.

And his right arm is made out of aspargus.

And when he sneezes the moon reverses orbit.

[reyd reid reed]

11. Now it's all starting to come together

The part about eating steel might explain the silver-tongue...

I like asparagus.

[MissHoneychurch]

13. We even had a threesome on YM

... I mean of course a chat. O R, Joani and I *evilgrin*

[In_The_Wind]

17. MissHoneychurch!

:blush:

[In_The_Wind]

10. I think he's a really nice person.

Of course you and I talk about him while he's sleeping. :shrug:

[Deep13]

14. I prefer Antigone. nm

[antigone382]

26. gee, thanks!

:7

[antigone382]

27. I think he's my dad...

...then again, he's also my brother.

edit: oh crap, meant to reply to the OP, not myself!

[Arkham House]

15. He's about as cool as a Dodger fan can be

[Left Is Write]

16. He's one of my favorite people.

I'm sure we'd be friends IRL if he lived nearby.

18. I'd rather marry a duck-billed platypus, than end-up like ol' Oedipus Rex!

From the Bible to the popular song,
There's one theme that we find right along;
Of all ideals they hail as good,
The most sublime is... motherhood.

There was a man though, who it seems,
Once carried this ideal to extremes.
He loved his mother and she loved him,
And yet his story is rather grim.

There once lived a man named Oedipus Rex,
You may have heard about his odd complex.
His name appears in Freud's index
'Cause he loved his mother.

His rivals used to say quite a bit
That as a monarch he was most unfit.
But still in all they had to admit
That he loved his mother.

Yes, he loved his mother like no other,
His daughter was his sister and his son was his brother.
One thing on which you can depend is,
He sure knew who a boy's best friend is.

When he found what he had done,
He tore his eyes out, one by one.
A tragic end to a loyal son
Who loved his mother.

So be sweet and kind to mother,
Now and then have a chat.
Buy her candy or some flowers,
Or a brand new hat.
But maybe you had better let it go at that.

Or you may find yourself with a quite complex complex
And you may end up like Oedipus.
I'd rather marry a duck-billed platypus
Than end up like old Oedipus Rex.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

22. He's spiffy!

:D

One of my first PMs ever was from him:

You're in Ninth Freaking Grade??
From: Oeditpus Rex
Date: Oct-07-05 11:04 PM
I suddenly feel very, very old...

And a day or two later....

I wish there were more young'uns like you. Lots more. Billions.

I shall henceforth affectionately refer to you as "kid," accompanied by a playful, Lou Grant-like graze of your jaw.

He was the first person to acknowledge my age... :evilgrin:

:loveya:

:hi:

[Oeditpus Rex]

24. Cripes, Kid

You saved that??

:hug: :loveya:









I'm spiffy!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

25. No, not particularly.

I've just never deleted any of my PMs.

:evilgrin:

:P :P :P

:hug:

Yes, you are! ;)

[Oeditpus Rex]

29. Oh

I feel so... special. :crazy:




*grazes Kid's jaw in a playful, Lou Grant-like manner*

[WritingIsMyReligion]

31. "Special" is a good word.

;) ;)

Ooh... :blush:

[maveric]

23. Not bad for a Dodger fan.

But he is deluded to his predictions of LA winning the NL West.

Go Padres!!!

[TimeChaser]

28. He took my 'E'!

:nuke: :grr: :nuke:

[Call Me Wesley]

30. I would never do this.

I would never talk behind the back of a fellow Yankee fan. No way!

[SeattleGirl]

32. I have a few things to say about the dude

He's awfully cute.
He loves baseball.
He loves cats.
He's funny.
He's a bit naughty.
He's smart.
He's kind.
And most of all, he's one of my bestest DU friends!

:loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[rug]

33. I like his mother better.
